Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 409 The Pursuit of the Sea Patrol Knight

“Now it’s your turn.” Danheng looked at Potio warily.

If he senses anything amiss, he will throw the cloud-shaped object in his hand without hesitation.

“The Sea Patrol has been out of the spotlight for too long; there’s no one here who’s considered a good guy in the underworld. But I’ve seen this kind of situation many times, and the solution is quite simple…” Portio put down his pistol.

"Come on, you can ask me anything and see if my answers can win your trust. If you really find it suspicious, then it's not too late to let me leave."

"Why should I cooperate with you?" Dan Heng retorted.

Portio smiled. "If I were truly a sea patrolman, you would definitely not lose out by doing this."

Danheng fell silent.

Indeed, if he really is a sea patrol ranger, he would be a reliable ally.

The situation on the train is dire; Himeko has fallen into a coma, and the others have been drawn into the family's conspiracy.

After thinking it over, Dan Heng sighed and asked, "Tell me, what kind of organization is the Sea Patrol Knights?"

Potio was somewhat surprised. "Ha, brother, that's a tough question. I can hardly even call us an organization."

"It's simply that everyone is on the path of 'hunting,' everyone has their own conviction about justice, and none of us are... welcomed by so-called 'universal values.'"

“This kind of answer won’t gain your trust and will only make your situation more dangerous,” Dan Heng said without backing down.

Pam, standing behind him, also gripped Danheng's pants tightly.

"I guess you're asking about some shared 'belief,' right? But the Sea Patrol doesn't need that kind of thing. We're united by a shared 'bottom line.'"

"Do not bully the weak, do not kill the innocent... These oaths are not lofty beliefs, but the bottom line that should never be crossed as a human being."

"As patrolling seafarers, we only follow the bottom line. Whenever someone tries to trample on it, the 'Hunter's' revenge will come knocking."

"And that's where the other meaning of 'bottom line' comes in—as long as you don't cross it, you can do whatever you want, understand?"

Potio explained the rules of the Sea Rangers.

It's clear now that the Sea Patrol Knights are a group of madmen who come and go as they please, but these madmen have a bottom line that no one can cross.

Dan Heng was silent for a moment, then asked, "The second question is, why are you causing trouble for the Starry Sky Train?"

“I already said I didn’t mean to cause you any trouble. I have to go to Pinocchio for some business, but as you know, the family is known for its strict rules. Without an invitation, the family won’t even let you into the hotel.”

“Well… I can only borrow the identity of the nameless guest. The whole galaxy knows you are honored guests of the family.” Potio was a little impatient, but still answered patiently.

"Aren't the Sea Patrol Rangers also like that?" Pam asked tentatively.

"Oh! You've hit the nail on the head... That's what I came here for! It's alright to tell you, the rangers are hunting down an 'imposter,' a cute little thing wearing our clothes and impersonating us. She's in Pinocchio right now."

"My informant... seems to be a memory-taker."

At this point, Potio suddenly picked up his phone.

"Hey, you're that Memory Receiver, right?"

"To be precise, I am a member of Liuguang Yiting, and I find it very rude of you to hang up the phone just now..."

Before Black Swan could finish speaking, Potio hung up the phone.

Dan Heng fell silent; he was already seventy percent convinced.

The person who could do such a thing seems to be a sea patrol knight.

"Who is that person who impersonated the sea patrol knight?" Dan Heng asked.

"Is this the third question?"

Is it difficult to answer?

"It's not difficult, but I'm afraid you won't believe it if I tell you. That guy calls himself 'Yellow Springs,' and according to our informants, she's very likely a... 'Void' messenger."

"That's impossible," Dan Heng insisted.

"See what I'm saying? Don't worry, when I first got this news, my reaction was exactly the same as yours." Potio had already anticipated Danheng's reaction.

“It makes sense that Ix never glances at anyone. What reason would He have to grant power to mortals?” Danheng shook his head; he didn’t trust him.

"Then you must know that envoys can also conceal their identities, and for many, it's better to do so, otherwise it means stepping onto the grand stage of galactic battles, or even... betraying the path they've chosen."

"I once had the misfortune of meeting a 'Pleasure' Envoy, who looked no different from those clowns. If I hadn't been lucky enough to get him drunk, I would never have known his 'illustrious' identity!"

Even the purest form of "hunting" has the Celestial Alliance under the lights and the Sea Patrol Rangers in the shadows. Ultimately, destiny is a concept created by humans, and there must exist an external world beyond our comprehension.

"The idea that 'nothingness' doesn't exist...maybe it's just because we're not 'nothingness' enough."

Danheng fell silent once again.

This was the first time he had heard such remarks.

Although bold, it is not without reason.

"So do you understand now? Your partners are in great danger, extremely dangerous. If you still don't believe me, you can send them a message and see. But I advise you to act quickly..."

"After all, neither of us knows what happened in the dream, nor do we know whether the person who remembers us is reliable..."

"The Memory Provider? Isn't that your informant? Why are you questioning his reliability?"

"Oh, just a newly formed informant, don't worry about him." Potio waved his hand.

"Our most important task is to subdue that Yellow Springs before she does anything, and ideally, let my darling shoot her in the heart."
