Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 198 Preparations before going to Inazuma

After having dinner at the Deer Hunter in Mondstadt, Shao Yun decided to "rob" Mondstadt Department Store again in preparation for the next journey.

Why do people always "plunder" Mondstadt? Because the prices there are cheap.

This time, Miss Blanche was "robbed" again.

Shao Yun packed the items on the shelves into his backpack one by one.

He then broke into the warehouse and emptied out everything inside.

At this moment in Mond's Department Store, if a mouse came in, the store would cry, and if a thief came, two bags of rice would be thrown away.

Miss Blanche, facing the few bags of Mora piled alone on the counter, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Why does he always act like he's robbing someone when he comes to buy something?"

……

Shao Yun's purchasing trip ended successfully. Carrying a lot of harvest, he rode on horseback with Ying and Paimon and set out on the journey back to Liyue Harbor.

The three of them were not in a hurry to travel, but enjoyed the scenery along the way. They spent a leisurely day and night, slowly approaching that familiar and friendly place.

When the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shines on Liyue Harbor, the entire city is immersed in tranquility and peace.

Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng stood on a high place, looking out at the beautiful port city.

Shao Yun turned to look at Ying and Paimeng beside him and revealed his plan to them.

"Before I leave Liyue, I would like to visit some old friends. Would you like to join me?"

Hearing this, Ying touched his chin, thinking about something.

After a moment, she replied, "Paimon and I actually want to meet the girl 'Zhuzi' from Inazuma first. Learn more about Inazuma, including how to get there and the local customs and practices there. After all, locals can always provide the most authentic and vivid first-hand information..."

After listening to this, Shao Yun smiled and nodded to show his understanding. Since Ying wanted to follow the plot, he did not stop her. After all, Zhu Zi's information was still very useful.

"In that case, let's split up into two groups. Where will we meet up?"

Upon hearing this, Paimon immediately used her clever little head and suggested a perfect meeting place.

"How is the Hall of All Peoples?"

Shao Yun laughed when he heard this, and he patted Paimeng's head gently to show his approval.

"You little guy are really getting better and better at enjoying life! Okay, it's settled. We'll meet up at Wanmin Hall, and this will also help solve Paimon's stomach problem."

When Paimeng saw that Shao Yun had seen through his little trick, he couldn't help but laugh foolishly.

"Hehe... Filling your stomach is the most important thing..."

After Shao Yun said goodbye to Ying and Paimon at the entrance of Liyue Harbor, he set out on the road to Yujingtai.

The Qianyan Army soldiers along the way all looked nervous and their fear was beyond words when they saw Shao Yun.

In Liyue Harbor, Shao Yun's name has long surpassed the threat of the Demon God and has become a shadow that may descend at any time and cannot be ignored.

Passing through the bustling streets, Shao Yun arrived in front of Yuehai Pavilion.

This is the power center of Liyue, and also the place where countless decisions and secrets are gathered.

The elite Qianyan soldiers on guard may have been feeling turbulent inside, but on the surface they remained highly calm and professional, and their eyes revealed their awe for Shao Yun, the "special visitor".

Huixin, the secretary in front of Yuehai Pavilion, was a gentle and clever woman. She felt as if she was facing a great enemy when she saw Shao Yun coming. However, she did not run away or panic. Instead, she put on a smile and stepped forward to ask Shao Yun the purpose of his visit.

"Hello, Mr. Shao Yun, what can I do for you?"

Shao Yun looked at the respectful Hui Xin, pointed at Yue Hai Pavilion behind her, and said, "I want to find Keqing, Ningguang, and Ganyu."

When she heard that Shao Yun was looking for Keqing, Ningguang and Ganyu, three important figures in Liyue, her heart trembled slightly, and she had a premonition that something important was about to happen.

"Excuse me, is there anything wrong?" Huixin made a special effort to explain because she was afraid of angering Shao Yun.

"I have no ill intentions, I just want to better entertain you."

Shao Yun sensed the fear in Huixin's heart and waved his hand gently, signaling her not to be nervous. He said that he killed people but did not eat them.

"Don't be nervous. I'm going to continue my journey. I'm here to say goodbye. I'll just say a few words and leave."

Huixin felt relieved when she heard that. She took Shao Yun into Yuehai Pavilion with a more sincere attitude.

Huixin led Shao Yun just as he stepped into the threshold of Yuehai Pavilion. At that moment, a gust of cold wind seemed to blow in, freezing the air in the entire office area.

As soon as Shao Yun's figure appeared, the civil servants in Yuehai Pavilion widened their eyes, their fear evident in words.

The new young men were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they hurriedly hid under the table, fearing that this legendary figure would suddenly attack and kill everyone present.

Seeing this, Huixin became secretly anxious. She was afraid that Shao Yun's arrival might cause a commotion, so she hurriedly led him to a more private reception room.

However, Shao Yun waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to go through so much trouble.

“No need to go through so much trouble. Just take me to find Ningguang, Keqing, and Ganyu. I’ll say a few words and then leave.”

Huixin, who was overly nervous, misunderstood Shao Yun's meaning and thought that he wanted to summon the three adults, so she quickly bowed and said that she would go and invite them immediately.

"Please wait a moment. I will ask Lord Tianquan, Lord Yuheng, and Secretary Ganyu to come see you."

Seeing this, Shao Yun quickly spoke out to stop him.

"No need to bother, I'll just go and see him and leave..."

But his explanation did not seem to completely eliminate Huixin's nervousness. Huixin just smiled and said softly: "This is my job, please rest assured."

After saying that, she hurriedly left the hall and went to report.

Looking at Huixin's departing back, Shao Yun shook his head helplessly.

"Really? I just robbed the North Country Bank, massacred Zhudianfang, brutally killed two people in the street, and even 'dismembered' one of them. Is it necessary to be so nervous? I think I am usually a kind person..."

As soon as these words were spoken, a Liyue person who had won more than 99% of the people and a civil servant who had finally arrived at Yuehai Pavilion burst into tears out of fear.

I finally climbed here, I don’t want to die like this.

"Help, Mom..."

The colleague next to the man was so frightened when he saw this that he quickly covered his mouth and whispered, "Don't make any noise. If your crying makes him angry, he might cook us all."

After hearing these words, Shao Yun didn't know what to say. He just felt scared.

To kill time, Shao Yun walked to a desk and picked up a document to read.

The area that Shao Yun came to was the core working area of ​​Huishan Hall, the most solemn of the Seven Stars and Eight Gates of Liyue.

Liyue is the country of rock, and ore is the lifeblood of Liyue.

Every document on this table carries the prosperity and future of Liyue Harbor and is the intersection of secrets and power.

However, Shao Yun's appearance broke the tranquility here in an unusual way.

His eyes revealed a kind of detached indifference, and he didn't care about anything around him.

When his fingers lightly touched the heavy confidential documents, the staff in Huishan Hall couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten, their eyes full of surprise and hesitation.

They looked at each other with mixed feelings. They wanted to step forward to stop it, but they were also worried that their actions would anger this seemingly ordinary but murderous "visitor".

Shao Yun didn't seem to notice the subtle emotions of the people around him, or maybe he just didn't care about these people at all.

He casually flipped through the documents. Those important decisions concerning Liyue's fate seemed to be just a pastime to pass the time in his eyes.

He looked at it seriously, yet seemed so nonchalant.

One civil servant couldn't stand it anymore and bravely reminded: "What you are holding now is Liyue's ore mining plan for this quarter, which is..."

Shao Yun interrupted him nonchalantly and said, "I don't make money from mining. I'm just killing time. Just take a look. Don't worry about me."

Then, Shao Yun looked through several confidential documents. Finally, he found the document about the application for resumption of work at the Layered Rock Abyss. His eyes narrowed slightly and he whispered to himself, "Layered Rock Abyss..."

This is the place I want to explore after returning from Inazuma. It will take a while if I calculate the time.

Shao Yun quickly put the document back to its place and prepared to continue his "reading journey".

The staff in Huishan Hall were all paralyzed. Shao Yun treated these confidential documents as comic strips and "picture books".

At this moment, Huixin rushed over with Tianquan Star Ningguang, Yuheng Star Keqing and Secretary Ganyu.

"Mr. Shao Yun, I have brought the person you want to see."

When Shao Yun saw three people he was familiar with in Liyue, he put aside the documents in Huishan Hall and came up to the three people.

When the civil servants of Huishan Hall saw that Shao Yun had finally left, they leaned back in their chairs and breathed a sigh of relief.

Shao Yun slowly took off his hat to Ningguang, Keqing, and Ganyu in front of him, and said politely: "Ms. Ningguang, Ms. Keqing, Ms. Ganyu, long time no see."

Upon hearing this, the three girls all showed polite and gentle smiles, like flowers blooming in spring, and responded in unison: "Hello..."

However, beneath this harmonious appearance, the hearts of the three people were like surging waves, difficult to calm down.

Ningguang, the queen of Liyue's business world, from the Tianquan star, and Keqing, the upright Yuheng star, both had a barely perceptible flash of surprise and uneasiness in their eyes.

She had heard about Shao Yun's deeds in Mondstadt a long time ago. Overnight, Mondstadt's thousand-year-old noble bloodline was almost cut off. How could such a move not make people feel terrified?

As big businessmen in Liyue, the two men were filled with fear from the depths of their souls when faced with such an evil star.

And Ganyu, the gentle yet tough half-immortal beast, has her heart filled with complex emotions.

What she learned from Master Liuyun Jiefeng about Shao Yun's connection with the heavy rain and the disrupted landforms in Liyue Harbor made her both respect and fear Shao Yun.

However, Shao Yun's next words broke the solemnity and silence of the moment.

He went straight to the point and stated the purpose of his trip.

"I'm here mainly to tell you that Ying, Paimon and I are going to continue our journey to Inazuma. So before I leave, I'd like to say goodbye to you." This sentence was simple and direct, without any procrastination.

The three girls were all stunned when they heard this. They had already made all kinds of preparations, but they didn't expect Shao Yun to just come to say goodbye.

This result caught them off guard, but at the same time they also felt a little relieved.

Ningguang was the first to come back to her senses. She stepped forward and said with her signature gentle smile and firm tone: "Oh, then I wish you a safe journey. Thank you for your contribution to Liyue."

Ningguang was right. Although Shao Yun killed people, at least he did not harm the people of Liyue.

He helped Liyue clean up the dark side of Zhudianfang and drove away the Fatui spies from the Northern Bank.

Afterwards, Shao Yun briefly exchanged pleasantries with Keqing and Ganyu. Finally, he looked at Ningguang and said, "In fact, in addition to saying goodbye to you, I have something else to ask you."

When Ningguang heard that someone wanted a favor from her, she finally felt relieved. Shao Yun was so polite right after he arrived, which made the three of them feel very nervous.

Now, it can finally land.

"What's the problem? I will do my best to help you."

Shao Yun explained: "We want to go to Inazuma, but I heard that Inazuma has issued a national lockdown order, so I was thinking, let me ask you how to get to Inazuma."

Keqing thought for a moment and introduced the matter of Inazuma to Shao Yun, saying, "This is a bit tricky. I heard from a Liyue merchant who came back from Inazuma that the sea outside Inazuma was blocked by thunderstorms, and it is difficult for ordinary ships to rush through."

Then Keqing told Shao Yun about the current situation of Inazuma and said, "Besides, outsiders are not treated well there. I heard from that businessman that all foreigners are restricted to the outlying islands. The Inazuma Kandebuko is very harsh on foreign merchants."

"After foreigners land on the island, they first need to obtain documents for landing, and then go to the Far Country Supervisory Office to handle the residency procedures. This whole process will cost several million Mora. In addition, foreign merchants are subject to various exorbitant taxes during their business, and the Kanding Bugei people also rob them..."

After listening carefully to Keqing's statement, Shao Yun slowly asked, "Ying and I are not businessmen. Business matters are secondary. Do you have any way to go to Inazuma? It should be safer."

He knew that going to Inazuma, Captain Hokuto's assistance would be an indispensable part.

Unfortunately, however, Shao Yun has not yet had any interaction with Captain Beidou.

According to the plot, Ying will participate in the Southern Cross Fighting Tournament to win a boat ticket. It feels like a martial arts competition is too troublesome.

Shao Yun chose a simpler path. He took the opportunity to say goodbye to Ningguang and others and sought their help.

After learning about Shao Yun's need, Ningguang quickly thought of her partner, Captain Beidou.

She opened her red lips and asked gently, "Mr. Shao Yun, have you ever heard of Captain Beidou of the Southern Cross Fleet?"

Hearing this, Shao Yun nodded slightly and replied, "I know. I've heard storytellers talk about 'Hai Shan Lu Yun Ji'. It's about Miss Bei Dou, right?"

Ningguang heard this and a gentle smile appeared on her lips, and she confirmed it.

"That's right. Captain Beidou's Death Star is currently anchored at Guyun Pavilion for a rest. I can write a letter of recommendation for you. You only need to give it to Captain Beidou, and she will take you to Inazuma for free."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun clasped his fists solemnly and said sincerely: "Thank you so much, you have saved us a lot of trouble."

Ningguang felt uncomfortable seeing Shao Yun being so polite.

She waved her hand gently and said modestly: "Mr. Shao Yun, you are too kind. It's just a small favor. It's not worth mentioning. Please wait a moment, I will write the letter right away."

After saying this, Ningguang turned and left to prepare the necessary letters for Shao Yun.
