Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat
Chapter 425: A Gift from the Devil?
After Nashida worked hard on the renovation for a while, she finally finished it.
The meditation device that was originally used to imprison her has completely changed its appearance, transforming into a combat command room that can freely communicate with the outside world through the void, as well as a device that protects herself from harm inside.
After completing this masterpiece, Nashida stood up, nodded contentedly, and said softly, "Well, the transformation is finally complete! From now on, this meditation device is no longer a cage that binds people."
However, in Shao Yun's eyes, the new "bird cage" in front of him was not much different from the old one. The only difference might be that the "key" to open the cage was now in Nashida's hands.
"Why do I feel like there is no essential difference..." Shao Yun couldn't help but muttered in a low voice.
When Nashida heard this, she glanced at him.
"If we really make a clear distinction, people will find out right away! So it's better to keep a low profile."
Shao Yun noticed that Nashida glanced at him with a hint of dissatisfaction, so he reached out and hit her hard on the head as a small revenge.
After knocking, he then asked: "So what do I need to do next?"
While gently rubbing the top of her head that had just been hit and hurt, Nashida took out six "new" void terminals that had undergone special modifications.
"These void terminals were placed on the table by you at the time, but I have carefully modified them so that they can be used as a dedicated confidential communication tool between us."
After a pause, Nashida continued, "However, in order to prevent those guys in the Ministry from noticing my manipulation, this void terminal has temporarily lost its function of acquiring knowledge from the void. It can only become a tool for communication."
Then, Nashida handed the six void terminals in her hand to Shao Yun and instructed: "Now you just need to return them to their original owners. I have left a special message in each one."
Shao Yun took the void terminal and put it away. At this time, Nashida could not wait to start a new action. She turned around hurriedly and got into the "birdcage" that she had personally modified.
Just as the "bird cage" was about to close, Nashida told Shao Yun: "Now, I have to find a way to find out why the Xumi people are sleeping!"
"After I solve this problem, we will plan how to regain control of the House of the Lords without bloodshed."
"Also, thank you for celebrating my birthday."
After saying this, Nashida returned to the state she was in when she was imprisoned, closed her eyes and stopped talking.
Shao Yun put on Nashida's special void terminal and muttered, "I rescued you in vain, but in the end I just gave you a new birdcage?"
However, there was one thing Shao Yun was sure of. Nashida had sentenced Sanbing to death... From this point of view, the demon had helped him...
However, as I said before, the devil’s favor…
……
In the second half of the night, everything was silent, with only a cold moon hanging high in the sky, casting a cool light.
Shao Yun dragged his slightly tired body slowly towards where he lived.
When he gently pushed open the door, he saw that the room was brightly lit, and Dina Zedai, Xianying and Paimon came forward.
"How's it going? How are things going?"
However, at this moment, she suddenly realized that Nashida did not come back with him. Her heart tightened and she hurriedly asked, "Where is the Little King of the Lucky Grass? Why didn't she come back with you?"
Seeing this, Shao Yun quickly waved his hand, signaling everyone to stay calm.
"Don't be so anxious, don't be so excited, and listen to me slowly."
Then he took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then told everyone in detail the careful plan that Nashida had made.
Not only that, he also explained why the people of Xumi fell into a coma for no reason, which was the plan secretly implemented by the Ministry of Education to harvest the dreams of the people of Xumi in order to realize the plan of creating gods.
After Shao Yun finished speaking, Lisa murmured thoughtfully, "Are the people in the Order Institute so crazy? So this is what Junior Brother Senor noticed..."
At this time, Dina Zedai was even more emotional, and said indignantly: "Little Jixiang Grass King needs our help, so why are you hesitating? Please tell me, what do you need me to do? As long as I can help, I will do it even if it means going through fire and water!"
Nelue beside her also nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Yes, I have the same idea. No matter how difficult or dangerous it is, as long as you can use me, please just ask me!"
Seeing that the two girls were about to sacrifice their lives for Nashida, Shao Yun first waved his hand, signaling them not to be impulsive.
Then, he took out the modified void terminals that Nashida had given him and said to everyone, "Put on this void terminal that was modified by Nashida first."
"She modified this thing into a simple communication tool. She also left a message in it. Everyone, take it..."
As soon as they heard Nashida's message, everyone reached out to take back their own "Void Terminal".
Lisa stood quietly aside, watching what others were doing.
Dina Zedai couldn't wait to put the void terminal on her head, and in an instant, the gentle voice came into her ears.
After listening to it, Dina Zedai showed an infatuated expression on her face, and whispered softly: "Oh, so that's how it is..."
Seeing this, Paimon, who had been watching curiously, hurried forward and asked, "What did Nashida say to Dina Zede? They look so happy. Can you tell me about it?"
Dina Zedai explained to Paimon with a smile on her face.
"Little Jixiang Grass King told us not to worry. She will definitely find a way to solve the various problems that Xumi is currently facing as soon as possible."
At this time, Nilu also took off her Void Terminal and interrupted, "Well, my situation is similar to Dina Zedai's. Lord Grass God also told me the same thing."
At this moment, Dixia, who was always generous, suddenly became a little shy.
She blushed and muttered softly: "Hehe, there's nothing special about me. It's just that Lord Grass God specially thanked me for my contribution to the children in the desert area."
Lisa looked at the scene in front of her and said to Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng with emotion: "It looks like you are going to do something big in Xumi this time!"
"As expected, wherever you appear, all kinds of wonderful and interesting things will happen."
After saying that, she shook her head gently with a faint smile on her lips.
Shao Yun seemed indifferent and said, "Generally speaking, we just need to do some brainless things, which are not very interesting."
Seeing that the so-called "crisis" had been largely resolved, Lisa waved to everyone and prepared to return to the inn to rest.
"Well, if there's nothing else here, I'll go back to my place. In a few days, I'll have to set off back to Mondstadt."
"Honorary Knight, Little Paimon, and Mr. Shao Yun, is there anything you want me to convey to my fellow Knights?"
Hearing this, Ying and Paimeng quickly exchanged glances, and then Paimeng responded with a smile: "Hehehe~ Then please say hello to everyone for us!"
Lisa turned her gaze to Shao Yun, waiting for his response.
After thinking for a while, Shao Yun replied: "Well, I am the same as them two..."
After all, unlike Ying and Paimon, I really don’t have anything to say to the people of Mond.
……
After Lisa, Nilu, Dina Zedai and Dishia left one after another, the house suddenly became much quieter, with only Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng left.
At this moment, Ying looked at Shao Yun and recounted the words that he and Paimon had previously left with Nashida through the specially made void terminal.
"Shao Yun, what should we do next? Nashida left a message for me and Paimon in the void terminal, saying that there are some things that need our help... but she also asked us to stay put for now and wait for the situation to develop..."
Shao Yun remained calm and composed after hearing this. He responded, "Since Nashida has clearly told us to wait and see, why don't we relax and have a good rest. After all, it's already very late."
After hearing this, Ying's anxious heart finally settled down a little.
She nodded slightly and responded, "Okay, then Paimon and I will go take a shower and then go to bed."
Even though it was already late at night, Ying and Paimon still decided to take a shower and then go to bed.
After Ying and Paimeng walked into the bathroom, the system suddenly and impatiently popped up a piece of text.
[Why didn't you tell Nashida how to solve the problem of Xumi? As long as she can establish a connection with the World Tree, all problems can be solved! ]
Shao Yun glared at the screen in front of him fiercely and complained, "I said you were a waste, so you really became a waste?"
"To interpret the so-called 'The World Forgot Me', we need to use the power of two God's Hearts, but Nashida doesn't even have one God's Heart right now!"
As he spoke, he waved his arms, looking very annoyed.
"I originally planned to kill those great sages and scattered soldiers with one blow and get the Heart of the Grass God and the Heart of the Thunder God."
"But who would have thought that Nashida would insist on solving the problem without shedding a drop of blood! Isn't this also the situation you want to see? Even if I say it, what's the use?"
After hearing Shao Yun's words, the system was silent for a moment, and then another piece of text popped up.
[You are right... But, 'it' is beginning to force you to cooperate with him... I am worried that you will be completely tied to 'it'. ]
When Shao Yun heard this, he retorted, "According to what you said, is it a good thing for me to be tied to you?"
The system explained.
[At least I won't trade people's souls.]
At this moment, Shao Yun no longer had the mood to argue. He walked to the chair in the corner and sat down on it.
The whole person muttered listlessly: "Okay, okay, now don't think about these troubles anymore, I'm tired."
"You know what? The effect of the Eastern Legendary Set is no longer effective. The demon is starting to force me to listen to him. This is not a good sign.
"Now, let me take a good rest. We'll talk about the future later..."
As soon as Shao Yun finished speaking, a line of words slowly appeared on the system.
[You have been given an owl ornament. ]
[Effect: Reduce the consumption rate of life, physical strength and Death Eye core by 15%]
At the same time, the owl ornament suddenly appeared in Shao Yun's hand.
He knew that this was one of the few things it could do now, so he hung the ornament around his waist.
The moment the ornament came into contact with the belt, a weak but reassuring wave of energy spread throughout his body.
Then, a complex and incomprehensible expression appeared on Shao Yun's face.
"To be honest, you're not a very good guy in my eyes, but...thank you for giving me so many good things..."
