Did he just leave like that?
Ceng Jinghui and Zhang Yao looked at each other, feeling like they were dreaming.
As a top scientist, although he had seen a variety of extraordinary abilities, Ceng Jinghui was extremely curious about Zuo Yi's ability to take things out of thin air. He really wanted to understand the principle behind it.
Zhang Yao was also very curious, but his point of view was different from Ceng Jinghui's. He thought about how powerful Zuo Yi's ability would be if it was used in local wars or special operations.
It was simply a moving warehouse, and a super-large one at that. It could be used to store logistical supplies and weapons!
However, both of them knew very well that they could not keep Zuo Yi. They needed an Alpha-level extraordinary to cooperate with them.
"By the way …"
Zuo Yi, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around and handed a purple crystal bottle to Ceng Jinghui. "Mr. Ceng, this is for you."
"What is this?"
Ceng Jinghui took it in a daze and was very puzzled. "Is this a potion?"
Zuo Yi smiled and replied, "You can call it the Wish Spring Water."
"Wish Spring Water?"
Ceng Jinghui looked at the crystal bottle in his hand and laughed. "Can it grant wishes?"
"Yes."
What he did not expect was that Zuo Yi actually answered very seriously. "But it can only grant some wishes, such as becoming younger, healthier, smarter, or luckier. You will know as long as you drink it."
Zuo Yi lost all the five holy springs in exchange for the Wish Spring Water condensed by the treasured tree. Although the Wish Spring Water could not be compared with the five holy springs, it could be produced for a long time, unlike the former which could be used up.
Last night, he received a total of five bottles of Wish Spring Water.
Zuo Yi respected Ceng Jinghui, the backbone of the country, very much, so he took out a bottle of Wish Spring Water and gave it to him.
He saw that Ceng Jinghui's vitality was far lower than the normal value for his age. This must be the result of his long-term accumulation of illness.
This bottle of Wish Spring Water could help Ceng Jinghui recover his health and live longer.
"Ha!"
Ceng Jinghui couldn't help but laugh.
He wanted to say that this was unscientific, but when he thought about Zuo Yi's identity and the means he had just shown, he could not help but half-joke and half-seriously say, "If you want to talk about flowers of wishes, I would like to live a few more years and contribute more to the country."
As he spoke, he uncorked the bottle.
A staff member beside him couldn't help but panic. "Elder Zeng!"
Zuo Yi had made it sound so mysterious. Who knew what would happen after drinking this unknown potion?
If something went wrong, it would be a huge loss to the country!
Ceng Jinghui ignored him, raised the crystal bottle, and drank it in one gulp. If Zuo Yi wanted to harm him, there was no need for him to go through so much trouble.
After drinking the Fountain of Desire in one gulp, the chief engineer pursed his lips with a strange expression.
Zhang Yao and the staff next to him immediately became nervous. Some of them even reached out to support Ceng Jinghui, afraid that the latter would suddenly collapse.
However, Ceng Jinghui pushed her hand away and closed his eyes.
After a while, he opened his eyes again, took a deep breath, and said, "Incredible."
At this moment, the others around him were already stunned because they saw that Ceng Jinghui's white hair was gradually turning black, and the wrinkles on his face were obviously fewer, making him look much younger.
Such a miracle happened in less than a minute!
Ceng Jinghui's wish was to become younger.
"Thank you."
Ceng Jinghui sincerely said to Zuo Yi. He felt that he could work hard in this position for another 20 years!
For him, this was more important than anything else.
Zuo Yi replied with a smile, "You're welcome."
Although he had given away a precious bottle of Fountain of Desire, it was not without gain.
The surging power of faith was completely beyond Zuo Yi's expectation!
"Commander Zhang …"
He pointed to the supercomputer next to him and said to Zhang Yao, "If you find relevant information about the Truth Council in here, please make a copy for me."
Zhang Yao nodded blankly.
His mind was a bit messy.
When Zuo Yi left CFJ10 and returned to the Linjiang mansion, Tan Zhenye of the Military Division was still on the plane.
He obviously got the news and called Zuo Yi, "Chief Zuo, do you have any more Fountain of Desire?"
He expressed his intention very directly.
"Yes."
Zuo Yi's answer made Tan Zhenye very happy, but the next sentence was poured cold water on him, "Not for sale."
"Why?"
The reason was that Zuo Yi was not short of money now. If he could get a large amount of faith power or use materials like Void Nether Silver to exchange, it would not be a problem to give away a few more bottles.
The Fountain of Desire was definitely coveted, but no one could force Zuo Yi to buy or sell.
There had been such people in the past, but now the grass on their graves was more than three feet high.
At night, after Xiao Yatou and Fang Yonghe fell asleep, Zuo Yi quietly went to the basement workshop.
He took out the rune circle template and placed the soul gem on it.
The soul gem contained the soul of the red-robed elder, who was a staff bearer of the Truth Council. Zuo Yi hoped that he could use it to obtain the secrets of the Truth Council so that he could dig it out and destroy it completely.
The most important thing was to destroy Saul's remnant soul!
Zuo Yi suspected that the Truth Council was planning to resurrect Saul. Although the remnant soul could not be compared to the original body, if Saul opened the channel to the Abyss Plane, it would be a great disaster for the Blue Star World!
However, although Zuo Yi could seal the soul of the red-robed old man with the soul gem, it was not easy for him to get the memories of the old man. Because he was not a wizard, he did not have the corresponding skills, and his knowledge of souls was very shallow.
Therefore, Zuo Yi could only use the simplest and most violent method, which was to refine the soul!
He injected his power of the will into the soul gem and forcibly refined the soul of the red-robed old man to extract the memories.
This method would inevitably lead to the loss of a lot of memories, and only a small part of the important content would be obtained. After the soul was refined, it would completely disappear and could not return to the endless Styx.
If Zuo Yi did this to an innocent soul, he would immediately lose all the power of faith and become a Dark Knight, never to be redeemed.
However, the soul of the red-robed old man was full of darkness and evil, and he was Zuo Yi's real enemy. No matter what Zuo Yi did to him, he would not lose any faith.
On the contrary, after completely destroying the soul of the red-robed old man, he would be rewarded!
Ten minutes later, the evil soul in the soul gem had completely dissipated. Under the purification of Zuo Yi's power of the will, he had also obtained a lot of secrets of the Truth Council.
