Original God's Dark Priest
Chapter 533 Hot Spring Talk
Ying, Xiao Paimon, Goro, and Coral Palace Xinhai rushed to the venue, while Saphir had to change his clothes before going there, so the group parted ways and left.
"No... is there no one to take care of me?" After they all left, Oropas, who was tied up tightly, twisted a few times and let out a sad and angry roar like a poor and helpless maggot baby.
However, no one cared about him.
Saphir's Netherworld Chains would not last too long and would automatically disappear after a while, but it would be very uncomfortable for Orobas to be tied up like this all the time.
But who cares about him? Ying and little Paimeng don’t care. Coral Palace Xinhai wants to care, but he can’t.
After all, what he did in the beginning was really unfair. Oropas couldn't stand up in front of Saphir. In addition, the gap in strength was too big, so he could only bear it.
On the other hand, Charlotte used her profound skills as a reporter to quickly write a report: "Inazuma God relied on his power to reach the semi-finals, but he didn't expect his opponent to smile cunningly..."
Beside her, Qi Liangliang was very excited with curiosity in her eyes. It was her first time to get so close to a reporter and compile her own report.
Seeing the title written by Charlotte, she thought it was very good and really whetted her appetite. She couldn't help but applaud and praise: "Wow! This title is great!"
Although Qiliangliang thought it was good, Charlotte felt a little guilty after writing this line. She looked at Miss Nekomata in front of her and asked as if asking for peace of mind: "Inazuma's thunder should not be able to strike Fontaine, right?"
"The Thunder God won't be angry about such a thing." Kirara was very sure. After all, she was a big monster who was familiar to the castle tower and the Narukami Taisha Shrine. Kirara was also a well-known figure in Inazuma. Although she was not aware of it, it did not prevent her from forming such an understanding.
While the two were chatting, Ying and his group had already walked over.
Little Paimon was a little surprised when he saw them: "Eh? Why are you two chatting? No, I should say why did we meet Qi Liangliang again?"
Qi Liangliang scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly: "I think it's a coincidence too! I just saw you in Liyue..."
As she spoke, she peered behind Ying and the others, trying to find the familiar figure.
"Saphir just went to swim in the sea and changed his clothes. He won't be back for a while." Ying explained.
Charlotte told her experience just now: "I interviewed everyone around the venue, but couldn't get any information about the card thief. Later, I met this Miss Qiliangliang, and while chatting, I found out that she had met you before."
"Card Thief?" Coral Palace was a little confused. This was a name she had never heard of.
Little Paimon immediately fulfilled his duty and became the mouthpiece of God for everyone: "This is what happened..."
After explaining what he had seen and heard in the past few days as concisely as possible, little Paimon quickly let Coral Palace Xinhai understand the whole story.
"Well... I already have some idea of the truth of this incident." After just a little thought, Coral Palace Xinhai almost understood it. After all, it was not particularly difficult to deduce the logic after understanding some of the other party's behaviors.
But this move still surprised little Paimeng: "Huh? So fast?"
"It may not be enough to explain it in a few words, and the finals are about to begin." Coral Palace Xinhai looked at Qi Liangliang and smiled slightly, "Let's put it this way, the key clue of this matter is actually Miss Qi Liangliang. I think Lord Safir probably knew it a long time ago.
Perhaps in her opinion, this matter was not a bad thing, so she chose to be a bystander and not interfere.
I don’t quite understand her, but I understand others.”
"Huh? Me? What's my relationship with Teacher Su Jin? What does this mean?" Qi Liangliang was a little confused and had no idea what was going on.
Charlotte was not too surprised, but nodded slightly: "After talking with Miss Qi Liangliang, I have some guesses."
"I don't have time to elaborate. Sorry, everyone. Let's talk about the rest after the game." Coral Palace Xinhai said this and ended the topic.
Ying didn't force it, she just said, "Just focus on the game."
This made little Paimeng scratch her head. She was really curious, but she couldn't figure it out: "What should I do? My brain is completely confused. It's clearly what I told, but I don't know where to find the truth.
Ying, I'm not really as stupid as Jingua, am I? "
Ying chuckled, rubbed little Paimon's head and said, "Okay, let's watch the game first."
"Well... okay." Although I am not willing to do so, this is the only way for now.
After they finished chatting, the emcee, who was a member of the Adventurer's Association, came over and said loudly, "Dear audience friends, welcome to the finals of the Summoning King Grand Prix!
This match will be between the chief priest of Narugami Taisha, Yae Kamiko, and the present-day shrine maiden of Umijima, Coral Palace, Shinkai! "
As she finished her words, Yae Shinko and Coral Palace Xinhai walked to the front of the stage and looked directly at each other. In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
In this atmosphere, the voice of the host sounded again: "I declare that the competition officially begins now."
"Oh! It's started! It's started!" Little Paimon was still the most excited one.
Because it is a competition, the process is naturally more formal, and the progress of the entire game is controlled by the emcee.
For example, now the emcee has announced that it is time to start the phase of throwing the first and second hands.
Of course, the formal procedures do not have to be strictly followed. As the chief priest of the shrine, in Yae Kamiko's view, the present-day miko in the rural area of Kaijima should be her subordinate.
Therefore, the Eightfold Son of God naturally wants to use his power to suppress others.
Naturally, even with the host taking the lead, the competition still entered the trash talk phase first.
"You arrived so late, I thought you were lost in the sea, Miss Deep-sea Tongue Flounder." Yae Shinko took the lead and showed no mercy. "It's not easy to come to the shore. Do you want me to give you the first move?"
Facing the attack from the Eightfold Son of God, what emerged in Coral Palace Xinhai's mind were the various ways the other party tried to train her when she went to Liyue two years ago.
Although it failed, it still made Coral Palace Xinhai feel a little apprehensive. This apprehension came from strength and power. At that time, Kaijima and the shogunate were actually in opposition, and with the instigation of the Fatui, the situation was dangerous.
But this time, it's different.
Although Safir did not express himself clearly, with Coral Palace's deep understanding, he naturally understood the key information immediately.
Safire doesn't care whether Inazuma is united or divided. It doesn't make much difference to her. It's just a matter of how much profit the Fatui can make from it.
No matter how Inazuma's situation develops, there is no doubt that the head of the Fushigi Palace must be Kaijima, headed by her. In other words, as long as she and her Kaijima do not commit suicide, Saphir will be Kaijima's biggest backer, and this has nothing to do with Kaijima's choice.
Ever since Saphir decided to take over Yuanxia Palace, they have been tied together.
Haizhi Island would naturally not destroy itself, and Saphir would not give up on them easily. Otherwise, there would not have been countless resources spent, and even a favor would have been done to hatch Orobas as soon as possible.
Safir wanted to give Haizhi Island a chance to consider things objectively, so that they would not be constrained by external factors such as resources and the environment, and could follow their own hearts.
In Coral Palace's heart's opinion, isn't this also a hint?
The unification of Inazuma is not a good thing for the Fatui, but it is not necessarily a bad thing for Saphir. Now, Coral Palace Xinhai has also figured it out.
It's more accurate to say that Saphir's beating of Orobas was not so much a vent for his anger at being backstabbed, but taking advantage of the incident to make a fuss. Coral Palace Xinhai didn't dare to say how much of the punches on Orobas were due to personal grudges, but she was sure that it was not a minority, and even accounted for the majority.
In other words, promoting the unification of Inazuma is a choice that suits Safire's wishes.
Shanhu Gong became more confident, so he said calmly, "That's not necessary. I heard that Linglong fried tofu cools down quickly. If it's not served while hot, it will probably become cold and greasy."
The two men exchanged a heated argument, neither willing to give in. In this atmosphere, the first round began.
……
"I smelled a fishy smell as soon as I entered the room. Did you go fishing?" Xianyun's voice sounded from the door. The woman pushed open the door of Saffire Chen Ge Hu's room and saw a puddle of water and wet clothes thrown aside on the luxurious wooden floor.
Safir was wrapped in a bathrobe and packing his toiletries, apparently planning to take a bath.
Hearing the woman's voice, Saphir did not turn around, but said with a sigh: "Don't use the word 'going to the sea' casually, it's not good for your reputation."
"Reputation? How come I didn't know you had such a thing?" Xianyun said nonchalantly, frowning as he spoke, "Where have you been? Did you really go to the sea to catch fish? I remember you didn't like eating fish either."
Saphir finally found a favorite fragrance from a box. This was the last batch, so she had to buy a new one. She chuckled and replied, "I'm going to Inazuma and catch that old bastard Orobas and give him a good beating. It'll make me feel better!"
"Provoking you is really the greatest misfortune of that guy." Xianyun could almost imagine that scene. If it was Orobasi, he would not necessarily lose to the current Saphir in the sea when he was in his prime, but Orobasi was not in his prime now, so that guy could only take a beating.
Following Saphir to the hot spring, Xianyun simply found a set of clothes and went to soak in the hot spring.
The warm hot spring water is really relaxing. When you are in it, all the feelings and long-standing fatigue are swept away.
Safir let out a long sigh and leaned against the pool wall where she usually leaned. Xianyun sat beside her and took her bath towel to wipe her body.
Saphir tilted his head and smiled helplessly: "Don't you have a bath towel yourself? What are you using mine for?"
"I didn't bring it." Xianyun said concisely, "What's the matter? Do I need a bath towel from you?"
"You use it if you want." Saphir rolled his eyes and ignored her.
After a while, she suddenly asked, "How is Jiang Li? Is there any problem recently?"
"The last battle between you and the Emperor might have stimulated her, and she has been practicing very hard recently." Xianyun sighed lightly. In fact, in her opinion, it was not necessary for Jiangli to work so hard. After all, even after another hundred years, it would not be the child's turn to rule the Liyue world.
That child should have grown up with a carefree life.
Saphir nodded slightly. "That time Zhongli had an attack and insisted on fighting with me. I couldn't refuse him. He said he was talking about experimental weapons, but what happened? He started to act like a spoiled child with me. This man is very hard to please."
"With so many people here, everyone can see that you were the first to strike, and you couldn't refuse. In my opinion, you have somewhat picked up on his temper when he was young. You are happy to hear about a war, and you're afraid that the world will not be in chaos." Xianyun leaned against the wall of the pool in a relaxed manner, with his arms stretched out and resting on the shore.
The red glasses were covered with a layer of mist due to water vapor, so she took them off and put them aside.
At this time, Noelle came over with two cups of hot milk on a tray: "Ms. Safire, I put the milk you asked for here."
"Thank you, Noelle. Do you want to soak in the bath together for a while?" Safir immediately turned around and thanked him.
Noelle would respond with a smile: “No, there are still some things to do.”
After saying that, she left again and went back to work.
"I had no intention of letting this child waste time in this pot. I don't know what the acting leader is thinking. She is obviously a top-notch fighter, but she has to be kept here where she can't see the outside world. Isn't this a waste of talent?" Looking at Noelle's departing back, Saphir thought of the previous negotiation with Qin and couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
Xianyun reached out and stroked Safir's slightly messy hair, his eyes full of smiles: "You just like to worry too much. Every child has his or her own life. Every day they spend is a piece of the puzzle of life. Maybe in your opinion, this is a kind of hiding and suppression, but how do you know what the child thinks?
Noelle is busy working on the Chen Ge Hu. I see it every day. She is happy. I think she likes her current life very much. And you may not know that, in fact, there are not as many things for her to do in Chen Ge Hu as you think.
Most of the time, after she finishes her work, she will return to the Knights to perform some tasks within her ability. The acting leader actually has no intention of suppressing her. Last time I heard, Noelle has passed the captain assessment and will soon have her own team. "
"My own team? Doesn't that mean I'll be a small leader like Eula?" Saphir opened his eyes wide in surprise. "Is that so... That's great."
In fact, Noel's opportunity was inseparable from Saphir's help. Not only because her coveting of Noel made Jean feel the crisis, but also because of the weapon she gave to Noel: Bie Yun.
It doesn’t really matter what special functions Bieyun has. What matters is that Bieyun is very sturdy.
Any weapon in Noel's hands cannot last more than five battles, including the Zephyr Greatsword. This is also what Jean is worried about. If Noel goes on a dangerous mission and his weapon breaks in the middle, the consequences are self-evident.
But this would not happen with Bieyun, because when it was forged, it was taken into consideration that it was a gift for Noelle, so a self-repair inscription was engraved on Bieyun. In addition, it is very strong in itself, so there is no need to worry about the risk of the weapon breaking.
After learning this, Jean was no longer reluctant to promote Noelle. Although she was still worried that the other party's kind nature might be easily deceived, at least she didn't have to worry too much about combat.
As for character, she could arrange for more reliable assistants to help Noelle grow faster.
After drinking the milk in the cup, Saphir let out a long sigh, "It's almost done! I should go back to Inazuma to see how the competition is going over there."
As she said that, she jumped out of the hot spring, grabbed a large dry bath towel and wrapped herself up. Xianyun listened to the rustling sound of her wiping her body, and did not rush to move, but just savored his share of milk.
"It's not that I'm afraid of chaos in the world...it's just that my lively and outgoing personality is somewhat similar to before." After Saphir ran away, Xianyun murmured in a low voice. After that, she chuckled, shook her head, slowly put down the cup in her hand, and closed her eyes.
She has not had an easy time recently, so it would be a good opportunity for her to take a good rest and adjust her mood.
