68: Compulsory interrogation

Jia Gu Yi Yan chose to spend 100 Light Energy points to purchase the [Fire Finch Manifestation E] card.

He planned to save the remaining 80 Light Energy points until he had 100, then buy the [Exploding Flame E] card.

As for the Ape Breathing Technique, his Mian Yu Technique had only reached the second layer, and he had already mastered the Basic Breathing Technique to its fullest.

Too much ambition leads to indigestion; mastering other breathing techniques before completing the Mian Yu Technique would be a waste.

Sitting cross-legged on the hospital bed, as the Light Energy points were consumed, flames condensed in his palm, and a new red-backed card appeared in Jia Gu Yi Yan's hand.

The card's background was fiery red, and on the front, a Fire Finch made of flames was depicted.

Similar to the [Ape E], every feather of the Fire Finch in the card was clearly visible.

Its eyes were as red as precious jewels, and the flame-formed feathers seemed to burn like real flames within the card.

Jia Gu Yi Yan looked at the card and felt a sense of familiarity.

It was as if with a mere thought, the Fire Finch in this card would spread its wings and fly out, fighting according to his will.

The [Fire Finch Manifestation E] is also extremely special among the Fire Finch's combat cards.

The Fire Finch summoned by it is not a simple flame bird.

Instead, it is a projected form of the Fire Finch Armor, a part of the Fire Finch's power.

Its growth potential is very high; it can be said to be bound to the Fire Finch and is not an ordinary card.

After confirming the appearance of the [Fire Finch Manifestation E], Jia Gu Yi Yan put it back into his Summoner.

Then he pulled out the [Ape E] from the Summoner.

As a newly acquired natural card, the [Ape E] felt completely different to him compared to the [Rainstorm E].

Its augmentation to Jia Gu Yi Yan was also different.

Holding the [Ape E] in his hand and activating its power, Jia Gu Yi Yan could feel the muscles in his arms bulge sharply.

His arms felt as if they were charged with electricity, and his strength greatly increased.

Does the [Ape E] only enhance arm strength?

Of course not; under the effect of the [Ape E], Jia Gu Yi Yan's overall physical fitness improved.

However, the increase in 'arm' strength was the most obvious and most noticeable to the wielder.

"Unfortunately, it's not a fire-attributed natural card."

"I wonder how high its compatibility with the Fire Finch can be."

Jia Gu Yi Yan put away the [Ape E] and sighed.

Previously, when he used the [Rainstorm E], its compatibility with the Fire Finch was only 10%.

He couldn't even feel the extent of the armor's upgrade.

In fact, after inserting the [Rainstorm E], the power of his flame attacks seemed to have been slightly reduced.

In exchange, he could control a certain degree of water flow attacks.

"I should be able to get out of bed today."

"I don't have time to lie in bed forever!"

At this moment, there was no one guarding Jia Gu Yi Yan's hospital bed, and such a good opportunity was rare.

"At least I need to complete the interrogation of that guy."

Even though White Feather had said that Wang Yixuan was staying here and could be interrogated at any time since he couldn't escape,

Jia Gu Yi Yan was still a little worried about complications.

The hidden wood-attributed monster from back then gave Jia Gu Yi Yan a very bad feeling.

If they dragged it on, if the other party noticed, it could very likely cause unnecessary trouble.

He pulled off the pillow and monitoring equipment from his body, and Jia Gu Yi Yan got up from the hospital bed.

After this period of continuous practice of the Mian Yu Technique for recovery, his body had long since regained its mobility.

However, when he stood up, the location of his bone fracture still hurt a little.

But...

"This level of pain, with willpower, with willpower, I can endure it!"

Jia Gu Yi Yan twisted his neck and walked towards the door of the ward.

(Good kids, don't learn from this!)

"Wait a moment, Mr. Jia Gu, you can't move yet!"

"Get out of the way, I know my own body best!"

The doctors and Nurses hurriedly tried to stop Jia Gu Yi Yan.

However, Jia Gu Yi Yan's tall and strong body was almost a head taller than them, and he was not someone ordinary people could stop.

"Please don't cause us trouble, Mr. Jia Gu!"

"I won't cause you trouble; if anyone asks, just say I sneaked out!"

Jia Gu Yi Yan shook off the doctors and Nurses and found the area where Wang Yixuan was being held.

At this moment, only a young Nurse was still chasing after him.

Wang Yixuan was currently held in a transparent single room, under 24-hour surveillance.

He had passed the hysterical period and was sitting quietly inside.

"You're here."

White Feather was not surprised to see Jia Gu Yi Yan.

"You can go back; since he could come out and walk this far without issue, it means he won't die anytime soon."

White Feather said, looking at the Nurse who was chasing after Jia Gu Yi Yan.

"Yes, Researcher Bai!"

The Nurse breathed a sigh of relief, quickly responded respectfully, and then left the detention room.

"Use the truth serum; general interrogation will have no effect on him."

"Perhaps his memory has been tampered with."

White Feather did not engage in extra pleasantries and quickly got straight to the point.

Jia Gu Yi Yan had also been waiting impatiently.

As White Feather opened the door to the detention room, he, another Monster Countermeasures Squad combat member, escorted White Feather, and they entered the detention room together.

"Are you here to interrogate me again today? I told you I don't know anything."

"Do you have an arrest warrant? Do you have interrogation authority?!"

"Your current imprisonment of my personal freedom is a serious illegal act!"

Wang Yixuan still seemed to have plenty of vigor.

It seemed his good teammates' interrogation methods were not good enough.

"Use it."

White Feather nodded to Jia Gu Yi Yan, then calmly lowered his head, preparing to record with a pen.

Jia Gu Yi Yan, excited, took out his Summoner, pulled out the [Potion F], and approached Wang Yixuan.

Truth serum, it was his first time using it.

Although he had wanted to use it a long time ago, he never had the chance.

"Wait, what are you going to do?!"

Wang Yixuan had a bad premonition and struggled desperately, but it was useless.

Under Jia Gu Yi Yan's strong body, he was pressed down on the table like a little girl, unable to move.

After all, the monster energy in his body had already been extracted by Jia Gu Yi Yan, and his body was equivalent to that of an ordinary person.

"Potion F!"

Click!

A needle appeared in Jia Gu Yi Yan's hand, then aimed at Wang Yixuan's neck.

"No, wait, don't!!"

Shouting was useless!

As a dose of the Potion was injected, Wang Yixuan went limp on the table. After about thirty seconds, he recovered slightly, slumping back in the chair.

He seemed to have had his soul drawn out, half-awake, half-dazed.

Whatever was asked, he answered without hesitation.

"Name."

"Wang Yixuan."

"Age."

"51."
