Chapter 286 The Doctor Visits the Coral Palace
"Doctor, the rebels have almost all been dispatched as planned. Now is the time when the defense of Haige Island is the weakest. Our people have also secretly surrounded the entire Coral Palace."

In the doctor's newly opened human laboratory in the Evil Eye Factory, a Fatui stood behind the doctor with his head bowed and respectfully reported to the doctor the progress of the plan. At the same time, his words also implicitly reminded the doctor that the time the doctor asked them to pay attention to had come.

"Oh? Well done. Looks like it's time to go to the Coral Palace and meet the real human god priestess, Coral Palace Xinhai."

It seemed that he had heard more interesting news than the experiment on the dissecting table. The interested doctor threw away the blood-stained scalpel in his hand without even looking at the bloody experiment on the dissecting table. He left the Evil Eye Factory as if there was nothing on the dissecting table.

Realizing that the Doctor had left the laboratory, the Fatui who came to make the announcement breathed a sigh of relief. Facing a madman like the Doctor, he felt a lot of pressure in his heart. After all, the Doctor's experimental subjects often did not distinguish between friend and foe. However, his luck seemed to be good today, and he was not used as an experimental subject by the Doctor.

Thinking of the experimental subjects, the Fatui glanced at the dissecting table not far from him. With just one glance, the Fatui felt a reaction in his stomach, and then he vomited without waiting to leave the laboratory.

Inside the Coral Palace, Xinhai, who had not yet realized the impending danger, was reading a book on military strategy. This book described various wars in which the outnumbered side won over the larger side in great detail. After reading part of it, Xinhai put the book down and couldn't help but sigh.

"I didn't expect to find a military book of this level in the wilds of Haigi Island. I wonder which senior from Haigi Island left it behind."

That's right, the military book in Xinhai's hand was not bought by her or given to her by others, but was found accidentally in a cave in the wild by a team of rebels while on patrol. Knowing that she was interested in the military book, the rebels gave her the real book.

Xinhai hadn't paid much attention to this book before, until today when she was feeling restless and wanted to read a book to calm down, and that's when she noticed this book.

"I don't know what happened to Goro and the others."

Fangxin looked at the place where the shogunate army was stationed with the book in her hand, feeling a little worried. Now the traveler has been looking for the Fatui hiding in the dark on Umi Island, and Captain Beidou of the Southern Cross Fleet also refused her commission for some reason. Now the only high-end combat force in the resistance army is Goro, and she doesn't know whether Goro alone can withstand the pressure of Kujo Sara.

Alas, I hope that the members of the rebel army can sober up their angry minds through this failure. The reason why Xinhai did not follow the rebel army to the vicinity of the shogunate army’s base was because in Xinhai’s opinion, the rebel army would definitely be defeated this time.

With Ying's reminder, Xin Hai, who was clear-headed, was certain that this was the Fatui's conspiracy. Although she did not fully guess why the Fatui did this, she could vaguely sense that the Fatui were playing a big game behind the scenes, and this game seemed to cover the entire Inazuma. This unknown made Xin Hai feel extremely confused, but in order not to cause panic, she did not tell anyone about it.

"Miss Xinhai of the Coral Palace, I wonder if this military book I found for you suits your taste."

A cold voice interrupted Xinhai's thoughts. Xinhai looked up subconsciously and saw a masked man standing in front of her.

When did this guy come? I didn't even notice someone approaching. Seeing this strange man in front of me, Xinhai's pupils shrank and he stood up suddenly. Water elements instantly surrounded Xinhai's body, as if ready to attack at any time. "Miss Xinhai of Coral Palace, you don't have to be so nervous. I don't have any bad intentions now."

The man's words made Xinhai sneer in her heart. Just because he has no ill intentions now doesn't mean he won't have any ill intentions in the future. Although Xinhai is not good at fighting, her perception ability is still quite good.

Being able to approach her without her noticing, Xin Hai found it hard to guess whether this man was too strong or had some way to conceal his aura. She couldn't gamble her life on which possibility it was, so she could only stare at the man cautiously.

"It seems that Miss Shinto Miko doesn't trust me. But it doesn't matter. It's always easier to communicate with smart people than with stupid ones."

"Let me introduce myself. I am the second-in-command of the Fatui, Doctor. I came to see Miss Xinhai of the Coral Palace today because I want to borrow something from her."

Hearing the man in front of her introduce himself, Xin Hai swallowed deeply. Her beautiful eyes were filled with fear that was difficult to conceal. It took her a long time to come back to her senses.

Looking at the polite doctor in front of her, the rumor that the top three executives of the Fatui all possessed the fighting power of gods echoed in Xinhai's mind, which made Xinhai's inner fear mixed with a bit of helplessness. She couldn't understand what on Haigi Island could attract the doctor who was the second executive of the Fatui.

Although he couldn't understand why, the appearance of the Doctor made Xinhai know who transformed those rebels into that appearance. Xinhai had also heard some rumors about the man in front of him. This Fatui executive named Doctor was simply a lunatic.

"I don't know what you want to borrow, Doctor. Our Haiji Island is so poor that I'm afraid I can't give you anything valuable."

Staring at the doctor with fear, she thought for a while but couldn't think of anything valuable on Haigi Island. Xinhai took the initiative to ask the doctor what he wanted to borrow from her. After all, she didn't believe that the doctor, an executive of the Fatui, would come to her in person just to borrow some ordinary things.

"It's not something tangible, actually. I just want Miss Xinhai of the Coral Palace to take me to the Yuanxia Palace. Of course, as a reward, I can provide food and material assistance to Wei Haiji Island on behalf of the Fatui. I wonder what Miss Xinhai of the Coral Palace thinks."

"Impossible! The Yuanxia Palace will not allow people from the Fatui to enter!"

When Xinhai heard the doctor mention Yuanxia Palace, she refused without thinking. Although she didn't know where the doctor heard about Yuanxia Palace and didn't know the doctor's purpose of going to Yuanxia Palace, every human god and priestess had the responsibility to protect Yuanxia Palace. Xinhai would never let someone like the doctor go to Yuanxia Palace.

Seeing the unusually determined expression on Xinhai's face, the doctor shook his head slightly. Sure enough, things developed exactly as he had imagined. He knew that it would be very difficult to go to Yuanxia Palace without using force.
