Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide

Fina actually doesn't like helping the doctor.

But when it comes to hatred, there is no such thing as hatred.

Strictly speaking, she only obeyed Rooster's orders and came to Mondstadt to be a long-term undercover agent who keeps an eye on the movements of the Knights.

The doctor asked her to find some additional experimental subjects, and Fina agreed, but she was unwilling to be so loyal when she already knew that her time was running out.

Her feelings about the Doctor are very complicated. If you insist on speaking, it is a strange thing that is mixed with many emotions and even she herself cannot explain clearly.

Without the doctor, there is no doubt that she would have died of the devil's disease when she was eight years old.

Although it was for the purpose of use, he took her away from Sumeru and brought her to Zhiwin. She became his experimental assistant with enough knowledge and obedience, but looking at the tortured experimental subjects, she felt a sense of confusion rising in her heart.

It seems to be something to be afraid of.

Or mercy.

But why can't she feel anything?

On the second day of the winter solstice, she began to fall into a long period of insomnia.

I thought it might be better in Mondstadt, but it didn't seem to make any difference.

The hometown she should have been familiar with turned into a place where she needed to be an undercover agent, and everything was strange to her.

Strange kindness, strange culture, strange excitement, strange freedom.

It's all so scary.

On the night when she listened to Wendy play under the statue of the God of Wind, she returned to the house she bought, and then she carried this fear of unknown origin. On the one hand, she was overwhelmed by the freedom in the music, and on the other hand, she was afraid of her true love. It’s difficult for oneself.

Amidst the difficult pull of her thoughts, she rarely fell asleep.

The next day after that, Fina concealed her traces and headed to the Fools' stronghold.

"You don't have anything to do. There is only one thing - be on call at any time and don't expose yourself. We will notify you when we need you." The arrogant voice of the person in charge rang in his ears, "If you come here once a month, you may be exposed. It’s too big. I’ll give you five months’ worth of the medicine prepared by Sir Doctor at once, okay?”

Fina didn't care about his attitude. She looked at the box on the table next to her, which was filled with five blood-red potions.

"...That's it." She raised her eyelids and looked at him expressionlessly. There was clearly no anger in those eyes, but when she looked directly at someone like that, the person in charge felt a little uncomfortable.

He muttered: "Why do you look like a dead person... Okay, okay, please leave quickly."

For a while after returning to her residence, she behaved like an ordinary but sickly new resident of Mondstadt.

It didn't take long for everyone in Mondstadt to be impressed by this strange lady.

——My family seems to have some money, and I feel very happy buying things for a new house. I prefer to visit Mondstadt more on weekdays.

When she came to the statue of the God of Winds again, she saw someone letting dandelions fly on the palms of the statue of the God of Winds. This time, the man was a little downcast, and his clothes seemed to be very old, but his expression was very pious.

Pedestrians talked a lot: "Why is it him again?"

"Yes, this is the first time this month..."

The troublemaker wondered: "What's wrong with him praying? Miss Wendry said she doesn't like him anymore. He begs Lord Barbatos every day... Lord Barbatos doesn't bless love."

"How do you know that Lord Barbatos doesn't bless love? Don't forget that I confirmed my relationship with Marianne under the God of Wind!" Another person retorted.

"Hey, hey... you and Marianne are also in love, it just takes a while, right? Is it the same as unrequited love?!"

"Forget it, I won't tell you anymore..."

Fina was a little curious.

"It seems like anything can be prayed to the Wind God?"

"Of course!" At this time, a simple young man came out of nowhere and stood beside her. He held a piano in his hand and praised proudly, "Lord Barbatos is omnipotent!"

His expression was wild and yearning, and judging from his clothing and tools, he seemed to be a bard.

The man sat down next to the crowd, took off his hat and made a simple coin jar, and then shouted loudly: "Everyone - are you interested in listening to my new work! If you are rich, please give me some money. If you don’t have money, just support yourself! The story told this time is about Lord Barbatos fighting against the Dragon King of Liyue Ruotuo!”

Fina: "...?"

Although she has stayed in Zhidong for many years, she still knows this familiar story from another country.

Is this... something wrong?

Who does Barbatos fight?

Ruotuo Dragon King? ? ?

As soon as these words came out, the people of Mondstadt who were originally uninterested couldn't help but get closer.

"Are you kidding? Isn't that the story of the Rock God?"

"That's right...if you don't tell Mr. Fengshen's story well, why would you say something like this?"

"As I said, it's a new work, a bit of a fantasy work. You can read it as a story." The bard didn't mind being scolded a few times, and his attitude was very open-minded. "The stories that praise Lord Barbatos are the ones that have been told over and over again. , why don’t we do something new and innovative?”

"You are too innovative!" passers-by complained

"Just say you don't want to watch it, right?"

"...Look." The passerby was silent, "I want to see how you make it up!"

Fina was shocked when she saw all this.

"That's it..." she murmured to herself, "Isn't anyone afraid of offending the gods?"

She remembered that during the solstice, people did not even dare to say a bad word about the queen.

At this time, a familiar voice came from beside me——

"In order to make enough money to make a living, some bards occasionally use special things to attract attention. This is because they have no choice but to make a living." Wendy walked over and explained in a relaxed tone, "It doesn't matter. Yes, Mondstadt is a free country, and the gods will not care."

Fina's understanding of "freedom" was forced to deepen.

Wendy invited her: "Fina, do you want to go and listen to his story? To be honest, even I am very curious about how Lord Barbatos fought against the Dragon King Ruoduo."

Fina: "As a citizen of Mondstadt, aren't you angry when you see your gods being entertained by others?"

"Well...it's nothing." Wendy thought for a moment and gave another example, "Do you know Liyue? People there like commerce. In order to make money, businessmen made many clay figures of the same style as the Rock King and Emperor. There are also portraits, sachets, paper kites... there are so many more tricks than Mondstadt."

"But even so, Liyue's gods are not angry."

"How do you know Iwagami isn't angry?"

"The Rock God appears every year during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony." Wendy said, "He must know about it, but he doesn't prohibit it at all."

"That's really unexpected." She said in a dazed tone.

In the past, there was Wendy singing in a tavern for a glass of apple juice, and later there was a down-and-out bard who made up outrageous stories to survive.

Fina listened for a while, but finally felt that the sense of separation was too severe and couldn't help but leave the place.

The profession of bard seems unlikely to be profitable.

"If you meet Wendy busking next time, give him a little more money."

With this little compassion, Fina thought.
