Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Because Dixia sold her greatsword, the budget hole for the Flower Goddess' Birthday Festival was filled, and now everything is ready.

As for when Shao Yun would return Dixia's "Reed Sea Beacon" to her, he planned to wait until tomorrow's Flower God's Birthday Festival.

On the afternoon before the Flower Goddess's Birthday, near dusk, Shao Yun found Lisa and invited her to have dinner at the Lambertton Tavern.

Lisa was very surprised when she saw Shao Yun's invitation, because Shao Yun had not contacted her since the last time he accompanied her shopping, so she was curious why Shao Yun suddenly invited her to dinner today.

Although she was full of doubts, Lisa still accepted Shao Yun's invitation because she also wanted to know why Shao Yun suddenly wanted to invite her to dinner.

However, nothing special happened during the entire dinner except eating.

This made Lisa feel a little confused, and she even began to doubt whether Shao Yun really just wanted to treat her to a meal.

……

The second floor of the Lambotton Tavern has soft lighting, creating a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere, which is in sharp contrast to the bustling lobby on the first floor.

Lisa was sitting in her seat, enjoying the dinner treated by Shao Yun. She was elegantly picking up a snow-white handkerchief and gently wiping the corners of her seductive mouth.

After wiping the corners of her mouth, she looked at Shao Yun who was sitting opposite her and said curiously, "Mr. Shao Yun, thank you for your hospitality. I am very full."

"I have asked you many times why you invited me to dinner, but you didn't answer. Now I will ask you one last time. Don't you have any special reason for inviting me to such a sumptuous dinner so suddenly this time?"

"After all, it would be too strange to invite a girl to dinner without a reasonable reason..."

Shao Yun made sure that Lisa was really full before he told her his true intentions.

"I do need your help, Lisa."

Hearing this, Lisa breathed a sigh of relief and thought, just as expected, this guy must have something to ask for by inviting me to dinner. Humph, he's being so mysterious, inviting me to dinner and beating around the bush...

Lisa "complained" softly.

"Hey, Shao Yun, since you need my help, why don't you just tell me directly? Why bother with all these dinner invitations..."

Then, the clever Lisa roughly guessed the general direction in which Shao Yun wanted to seek help.

She tilted her head slightly, blinked her big, lively eyes, and asked tentatively, "Let me guess, is this related to the encounter with the Grass God?"

After hearing this, Shao Yun thought for a moment.

At first, he shook his head slightly; but then he nodded thoughtfully and explained: "Well, it can be said that there is a relationship, but it is not completely accurate..."

After all, when he "met" the Grass God, he did not mean to have an audience with him, but to kidnap the Grass God from the Jingshan Palace!

Looking at Shao Yun's appearance of nodding and shaking his head, I thought Shao Yun was trying to save face.

Lisa smiled and said softly, "I understand. After all, when you are at home, you can rely on your parents, but when you go out, you naturally have to rely on your friends."

"Besides, I studied at the Ministry of Education, so I know some of the internal information there! So, when you encounter this kind of situation, you will naturally think of me."

However, Lisa kindly reminded him, "But, I seem to have told you before that I only know that the little King of Auspicious Grass lives in the Jingshan Palace, but as for how to meet her in person..."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun quickly waved his hands and quickly explained to Lisa his real demands.

"Well, I know you can't act as an introducer. I just want to ask you some other questions."

When Lisa heard that it was something else, she, who had been somewhat relaxed, suddenly felt uneasy.

She was quick-witted and immediately connected the situation in front of her with something that happened half a year ago.

She whispered in astonishment, "Shao Yun, are you planning to sneak into Jingshan Palace like you did when you stole the Sky Harp?"

As soon as Lisa mentioned how she, Ying, Paimon and that drunkard, the wind god Barbatos, stole the Sky Harp together.

At that time, I mocked Barbatos and said that his plan was not very good, but now the boomerang has come back...

Shao Yun gritted his teeth, nodded his head, and replied embarrassedly: "Uh... that's probably what it means..."

After hearing Shao Yun's confession, Lisa's beautiful eyes instantly widened. She subconsciously lowered her voice and nervously reminded him, "Oh my God! How can you be so brave? If this matter is discovered, the Ministry of Education will never let it go and will definitely issue a hunting order for you!"

When Shao Yun heard the words "hunt order", a faint smile appeared on his face, and he didn't care about it at all.

"That's only if I'm discovered. Besides, even if the Order of the Holy Fathers really dares to do that, it's still unclear who will be the one hunting whom."

Lisa was stunned for a moment when she heard Shao Yun's confident words, and then she nodded thoughtfully.

"Yeah... that's right. If someone really has the ability to hunt you down, how strong would that person have to be?"

However, her tone suddenly changed and she began to mutter softly.

"But then again, I didn't expect that my originally wonderful vacation would encounter something like this. Sigh, things are unpredictable..."

Seeing that Lisa was obviously reluctant to help him, Shao Yun did not force her.

He shrugged casually and said, "If you don't want to help, that's fine. Just think of it as me simply inviting you to dinner."

After all, if it weren't for the alchemical pendant that Lisa gave him, his potion stock would have been gone long ago.

Lisa raised her hand slightly and waved to Shao Yun, signaling him not to give up so easily.

"Don't be in a hurry. Tell me first what kind of help you want me to give you."

After hearing this, Shao Yun did not hesitate to say, "Well, since you said so, I won't hide it anymore."

"I need a detailed map of the Magistrates' Court area, including the markings of every corner and every passage. In addition, I also want to know the exact number of guards and their daily patrol routes."

"Of course, it would be even better if you had a strategy for going to Jingshan Palace without being discovered."

In general, Shao Yun treated Nashida as the bank's money, and he was preparing as if he was planning to rob a bank.

Lisa couldn't help but frown after hearing this. She pursed her pink lips and replied with difficulty: "Oh, what you want is very important and confidential information!"

"As for the map, all I have is the student guide I used when I was a student. It only gives a rough introduction."

"As for the rest... it's really hard to deal with... after all, I'm not very close to the Commander and the so-called Thirty-Man Group..."

Seeing that Lisa could only provide him with a rough map, Shao Yun weighed the options in his mind, then nodded and said in a calm tone: "Then... lend me your student guidebook. It's better to have it than not."

Suddenly, Lisa's eyes rolled, as if she had thought of something. She stood up and said, "How about this, I'll go visit some friends I met when I was studying at the Order Academy... maybe I can get what you need from them."

Shao Yun was a little surprised when he heard that Lisa was going to find someone to help. He asked in confusion: "What? Are you sure? I mean, you probably don't like trouble."

Lisa nodded, a hint of indifference in her tone.

"I really don't like tedious things, but since you came to me for help for the first time, how can I not help you..."

Shao Yun smiled and asked in a teasing tone: "Are you sure you want to help me like this? I mean, aren't you afraid that you will be convicted of accomplice by the Ministry of Education for helping me?"

When Lisa heard Shao Yun's description of the situation, she raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Well, let's imagine the worst case scenario."

"Suppose you are the interrogator from the Fatma Court, and I answer that I am just catching up with friends and chatting about trivial matters in daily life, would there be any problem with such an answer?"

After listening to this, Shao Yun shook his head slightly and gave his answer: "Of course there is no problem with this statement."

Lisa did not stop there. She continued to ask: "I also have a habit of keeping a diary. Is there anything wrong with this behavior?"

After hearing this, Shao Yun nodded again.

"There is nothing wrong with this kind of behavior either."

Lisa continued to ask.

"So, if I tell you that you stole my diary, is there anything wrong with my answer?"

Having said this, Shao Yun immediately understood Lisa's intention.

"Oh! I see... Don't worry, even if the sky falls, it won't fall on your head."

Seeing that Shao Yun had understood what she meant, Lisa waved her hand and said lightly, "In that case, I'll leave first. Wait for my news at the Zubair Theater at the Flower God's Birthday Festival tomorrow morning."

……

After Lisa left, a prompt box suddenly popped up on the system, and the questions in it seemed a little urgent.

What do you want to do?

Faced with the system's questions, Shao Yun spread his hands, looking somewhat helpless, and explained: "Given your uncertainty, I must make various preparations just in case."

The system then popped up another paragraph of text.

[I remember I offered you a plan. I thought you didn’t like trouble…]

Shao Yun shrugged his shoulders, acting as if he didn't care, and answered easily: "I chose C between A and B. Is there any problem with that?"

The system began to carefully sort out Shao Yun's plan, and then gave its own evaluation.

[Your plan, are you sure that the current Nashida can govern Xumi well? ]

Shao Yun pinched his ears, pretending to be indifferent, and said, "I learned from Dolly that even without our participation, Elhaisen can get the so-called God's canned knowledge back."

"This shows that the world can function normally even without us. The world will continue to move forward without anyone!"

"We can't fight against gravity. In that case, all I have to do is pull the trigger at the right time! The rest is not something we should worry about. After all, if the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up!"

"So why shouldn't I choose the simple option that is crude, effective and in the best interest of me?"

After listening to Shao Yun's words, the system only provided two concise comments.

【crazy!】

After hearing this comment, Shao Yun retorted with a slightly unhappy tone: "Crazy? I think the craziest person in Xumi should be the 'Red King' in the desert. If he didn't study those forbidden knowledge, how could all this chaos happen?"

"As long as we can make the Great Kindness Tree King in the depths of the World Tree 'die', then the problems facing Xumi will be solved, and the 'insurance' you put on me will also be healed."

"In this case, why should we care about what means we use? As long as we can achieve our goals, any method is acceptable!"

After stating his point of view, Shao Yun spread his hands and made a clear choice request to the system.

"Now, as I said in Huachengguo that day, it's time for you to make a choice."

Seeing that the situation was so complicated and had developed to such an extent, the system finally gave its own response.

[Okay... I promise to help you... I will assist you in rescuing Nashida from the Jingshan Palace, but you must obey my command at that time, okay? ]

Seeing that this "waste" finally agreed to his plan, Shao Yun showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"We finally reached a consensus. You see, cooperation is not that difficult, right?"

The system just replied.

[We are always on the same front, but you are becoming more and more crazy...]
