Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng rode on horses, carrying the injured Dishiya and hurried on their way.

After a whole night, the sky began to turn pale, and the four people finally arrived at their destination - Zen Garden.

When everyone had just dismounted and were about to look for the people from the Dishia Mercenary Group, a young member of the Gilded Brigade stood outside the Zen Garden, as if on guard.

He suddenly noticed Dishiya who was sitting behind Ying. A smile of surprise instantly appeared on his face. He waved his arms excitedly and shouted, "Captain, you finally showed up!"

When Dishia heard the shout, her eyes immediately locked on the young man.

She looked closely and found that it was "Hisham" from her own mercenary group. She felt concerned and asked anxiously, "Hisham, is everyone okay now?"

When Hisham heard this, his originally happy expression turned solemn.

He looked troubled and said slowly: "Captain, the situation is not very good. If you hadn't stepped forward and successfully led away those weird fools, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to bring back even a single corpse."

Having said that, he couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little scared.

Then, Hisham remembered something important and quickly turned his gaze to Dishia, asking anxiously, "By the way, Captain, how is your injury? I remember that your arm..."

Because Dixia had drunk two bottles of Shao Yun's special-effect magic supplement, her wounds had almost healed.

However, she was still a little worried, wondering whether this injury would leave any scars on her body.

Faced with Hisham's concern, Dishia jumped off the horse and showed that he was in good health.

Then Dixia walked quickly towards him and asked, "Don't worry, my injury is not serious anymore. It doesn't hurt and it doesn't bleed anymore. But how is everyone now?"

As Hisham listened to Dishia asking about the conditions of other teammates, his already solemn expression became even more depressed.

"Well, how can I put it? The morale of everyone is really not very good at the moment. Although our mercenary group has experienced many ups and downs, and life and death are also commonplace, but this time we encountered the Fatui who could self-destruct..."

At this point, Hisham couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and then continued: "Oh, I really don't know how to describe it. Even those most brutal and cruel Gilded Brigades have never done such a cruel thing..."

When Dixia learned that everyone's morale had been dampened, her heart ached and she said guiltily, "Is that so... I have to go and apologize to everyone. After all, I was the one who led and organized this operation."

At this moment, Hisham quickly waved his hands and looked at Dishia with a firm face to boost morale.

"Don't say that, Captain Dixia! The reason why everyone chose to participate was because they saw the hope of success, and everyone came willingly..."

"Although the situation is not very good now, if everyone can see that you, the captain, have returned safely, the morale will be much better."

Dixia pursed her lips and muttered: "That being said..."

Seeing that Dishia seemed to want to continue talking, Hisham quickly changed the subject and said, "Alas, now is not the time to discuss these things. We are all arranged by a kind ranger to rest in this Zen Garden."

"Captain, you should go over and see how everyone is doing. Everyone is worried about you."

As he spoke, Hisham turned around and made a gesture to Dishia, the meaning of which was obvious, asking Dishia to follow him.

Seeing this, Dixia nodded slightly.

Although she still had a lot to say in her heart, there was no point in regretting it now, so she had to put it aside for the time being and go check on her other companions first.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

Just then, when Paimon heard the friendly ranger, the image of Tinari instantly appeared in his mind.

After all, Tinari is also a ranger, and he is very friendly and enthusiastic. So when Paimon heard Hisham mention that there were rangers to help, the first person he thought of was Tinari.

Paimon leaned close to Ying and whispered in a low voice, "Forest Ranger? Could it really be Tinari?"

However, at this moment, Shao Yun had no intention of wondering whether this kind-hearted forest ranger was Tinari.

"Rather than who this ranger is, I am more interested in something else..."

……

Just like that, Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng followed Dishiya and Hisham into the Zen Garden.

As they walked, Shao Yun looked at Dishiya and asked, "Dishiya, what did Hisham just say about 'hope'? Is that what Nashida told you?"

When Di Xia saw Shao Yun asking about this, she did not hide anything and explained it to him.

"Lady Grass God said that once we successfully crack the Order House's insane plan to create a god, she will abolish the Order House's long-standing blockade policy against the desert people."

"By that time, all Xumi people will be allowed to enter the Teaching Institute to learn knowledge after passing the examination, and we will also focus on increasing investment in educational resources in the desert areas."

After listening to this, Shao Yun didn't have any thoughts.

After all, in his opinion, this matter was very common.

Regardless of the fact that Nashida herself is like a living bodhisattva who is compassionate and saves the world, she will definitely do so after she comes to power.

From a practical perspective, if you want others to provide wholehearted assistance but are unwilling to provide corresponding remuneration or other forms of benefits in return, who would be willing to serve?

……

Wendy, Zhongli, and Kamisato Ayaka, you three tell me whether this is right or not.

……

"Oh...so that's how it is..." Shao Yun nodded.

Dixia continued with a sad face: "Originally, I was planning to get in touch with more well-intentioned Gilded Brigades and try to gain their support and help."

"It's a pity... the time left for us was too tight, and we didn't have enough time to put it into practice... If we had more people, would we have succeeded by now?"

Facing Dixia's slightly regretful idea, Shao Yun slowly shook his head and replied: "Believe me, even if more helpers came, the situation at that time would not change much."

"Those Fatui who blew themselves up were not afraid of death. Or rather, that mad doctor set them up to not be afraid of death... In the end, only a few more people died."

After hearing Shao Yun's words, Di Xia let out a long sigh.

"Ah...but it just feels a bit...unfortunate...that I wasted an opportunity."

After hearing Di Xia's "what a pity", Shao Yun thought that this was a very normal reaction.

When something fails, people always regret the choices or things they did in the past, which is normal...

……

After entering the Zen Garden, what comes into view are the members of the "Blazing Beast Hunter" mercenary group led by Dixia.

Everyone sat on the ground in groups of three or four and took a short rest. Most of them had sadness on their faces. It was obvious that the self-destructive fools encountered in Xumi City had left them with some psychological trauma.

At this moment, the sharp-eyed members caught a glimpse of Dishia's familiar and reassuring figure.

The news spread quickly, and the people who were originally listless and worried began to cheer up.

Seeing this, Di Xia smiled and turned to Shao Yun and others beside her and said softly: "Excuse me, everyone, I have to talk to my friends first, so I'll leave for now."

After saying that, she walked towards the members of her mercenary group, talked to them and comforted them.

At the same time, in a corner not far away, a ranger with fox ears on his head was concentrating on taking care of the injured people.

Paimon squinted her eyes curiously. After seeing clearly, she quickly pulled Ying beside her and said, "Oh! Isn't that Tinari? The kind and warm-hearted ranger is indeed him!"

Hearing the sound coming from this side, Tinari's ears moved slightly and he looked in the direction of the sound.

When he saw who the person was, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

"So it's you."

Paimon flew to Tinari joyfully and asked, "I thought you should be in the Transformation Castle right now, Tinari. Why are you suddenly in the Zen Garden? Is there something wrong?"

Tinari touched his chin, thought for a moment, and then explained, "Well, actually there are two things. The first is about Hypatia.

"She came to me before and told me that she had successfully ended the so-called 'Lin Ju Kuang Yao Period' and successfully entered the 'Silent Perfection Period'."

"However, when I saw her condition at the time, I found that this was not a normal state, but a clear symptom of mental disorder. Therefore..."

Upon hearing this description, Paimeng felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

"Could it be that Hypatia has really gone mad?"

Tinari nodded reluctantly, then quickly shook his head.

"That's true, but her symptoms are rather special. That's why I secretly brought her to Zenna Garden, hoping to find a way to restore her to her original state."

"If we hadn't done that, according to common sense, Hypatia would have been exiled to Aru Village in the desert by those disciplinary officers by now."

Having said that, Tinari paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued to talk about the second reason.

"As for the second one, the reason is a little more complicated."

"To be honest, you may not believe it, but it was the Little King of the Auspicious Grass who said that you needed my help. And I just happened to be in the Zen Garden, so... it can only be said to be a coincidence."

When Shao Yun heard this, he realized that these two reasons were not that complicated...
