Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 47: Can the bridge be blown up?

Shao Yun stood on the city wall, thought for a moment, then turned around and faced Noelle who was standing beside him. He gave the order.

"Noelle! Go back to the Knights' headquarters and inform all the knights, telling them everything Amber said! Then call Kaia and Lisa! Quickly!"

Noelle's eyes flashed with hesitation when she heard this. She glanced at Amber, who was still a little weak beside her, and her worry was beyond words.

Amber's condition isn't too good either, should I just leave...

Shao Yun noticed her hesitation and shouted, "Go! Amber will be fine!"

Noelle was startled by Shao Yun's roar, and she woke up instantly. She knew that now was not the time to hesitate or worry. She took a deep breath, turned around and ran towards the city wall.

Afterwards, Shao Yun began to carefully observe the situation outside the city, quietly staring at the quiet and uneasy land outside the city.

He whispered to himself, as if he was cheering himself up, or analyzing the situation.

"We still have time. This is much better than the Knights of the Apocalypse and the Ao Gang's raid on Shadibelei. At least it's not leaky from all sides. There must be a way."

Shao Yun took a deep breath, and various possible strategies quickly ran through his mind. He had to come up with a way to preserve Mondstadt while minimizing the losses.

With the current number of knights in Mondstadt, it would be a problem to fill the city walls, not to mention paying attention to internal security. It would be damned if that group of Fatui didn't take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Shao Yun licked his lips nervously and finally set his eyes on the bridge.

This bridge is the only land connection between Mondstadt and the outside world, and it is also the only way for the Hillock army to attack. If...if this bridge can be blown up, then the Hillock army will not be able to enter Mondstadt.

Once this idea came into being, it quickly took root in Shao Yun's mind.

Mondstadt was built on an island in the Fruit Wine Lake. Unless these hillbillies suddenly learned to swim, or experienced atavism and grew wings, there was only one way to attack, and that was the bridge.

Thinking of this, he pounded the wall of the city wall hard.

"I've figured out a solution!" His voice revealed immense confidence.

Amber was standing aside, watching Shao Yun's excitement, with curiosity in her eyes.

Although she was still a little weak, she still supported herself and walked over slowly.

"Have you thought of any solution?" she asked weakly, with a hint of anticipation in her voice.

Shao Yun turned his head and looked at Amber's weak appearance, and a feeling of concern surged in his heart. He asked softly, "Are you feeling better?"

Amber nodded and forced a smile: "At least I can walk now. Your potion is really powerful, but it would be better if it wasn't so bitter." Although her voice was weak, there was a hint of playfulness in her tone.

Shao Yun couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"Okay, I'll try to improve next time." The conversation with Amber made me feel a little more relaxed.

There was another silence. Amber tapped Shao Yun's arm with the back of his hand and reminded him, "By the way, you haven't answered me yet. What did you think of just now?"

Shao Yun licked his dry lips, shook his head gently, and didn't tell her directly.

"Amber, this is a crazy idea. I need to wait until Lisa and Kaia arrive before I can tell you in detail."

After saying that, Shao Yun took out the telescope again. He stood on the city wall, constantly scanning the distant horizon, not missing any movement in the distance.

Unexpectedly, Jean's personal commission still needs to be handled by the Knights, but they are not dealing with the Fatui, but the Hilichurls.

In fact, the Hilichurls are similar to the Faints, both of them are a group of not very smart guys.

……

Mondstadt, the city-state where the wind of freedom blows, is now as if swept by a storm of unrest again, filled with tension and anxiety.

The news that the Hilliculers were going to attack Mondstadt spread quickly, and the originally bustling crowds on the streets had disappeared, replaced by groups of knights wearing armor and holding weapons, who were maintaining order.

Shao Yun stood on the city wall, tightly gripping a golden revolver in one hand and wiping every line on it with gun oil with the other hand.

The action was a bit rough, as if he was venting his inner irritability and dissatisfaction in this way. He was muttering in his heart.

"Damn system, did you predict this a long time ago? I was wondering how Noelle's thank-you event could be a major mission. Do you find it interesting to be a riddler? Now I'm not prepared at all, just two revolvers, and you're happy, right?"

Shao Yun's voice was low and full of resentment, blaming the broken code.

However, the system did not reply. There was only the sound of wind whistling over the city wall. Now the only sound missing was the chirping of crickets.

Shao Yun became even angrier. He looked at the cleaned revolver and put it into the holster.

He called up the system screen and cursed in a low voice: "You bastard, you interfered when you shouldn't have, and it was like the system crashed when I used you! It's less than half an hour until sunset, if you don't say something, I will find a way to make you crash for real!"

Perhaps it was threatened by Shao Yun, so the prompt popped up.

[You have been issued a Carbine Rifle and a Pump-Action Shotgun. ]

After the system prompts, the two weapons suddenly appeared on Shao Yun's back, a carbine rifle and a pump-action shotgun.

Shao Yun had a complicated expression. The two weapons the system gave him, the pump-action shotgun was OK, but the carbine rifle only had one more bullet than the revolver, how stingy!

But on second thought, as long as you use it properly, even if you are only given a double-barreled shotgun, you can still play with it in a variety of ways!

Several blurry figures appeared on the distant horizon, slowly moving towards Mondstadt.

Looking at the sun that has already sunk halfway into the horizon, it's no wonder that it's the Hilichurls.

……

Just when the sun had sunk three-quarters below the horizon, Noelle brought Kaia and Lisa to the city wall.

At this moment, nearly a hundred ordinary Hilichurls have gathered in the distance, and their number is still increasing.

Seeing this scene, Lisa, who had been wearing a lazy expression, became nervous and frowned.

"I thought Noelle was joking, but it turned out to be true."

Next to her was the cavalry captain Kaia, who always had a sly smile on his face, and he was not in the mood to smile either.

"Why does this kind of trouble happen when the leader asks for leave?"

The two stood side by side with Shao Yun. Lisa watched the speed at which the hillock people gathered, stroking her chin, and said to herself: "I feel an unusual atmosphere in this commotion, as if something is stirring up the situation in secret."

After hearing what Lisa said, Kaiya did not respond, but turned his gaze to Shao Yun who was observing outside the city through a telescope.

"It seems that Mr. Shao Yun is very concerned about the safety of Mondstadt."

"Is everyone here?" Shao Yun did not respond to Kaiya's words. After putting away the telescope, he looked at everyone seriously.

"You know everything Amber said."

Kaia's face was filled with helplessness, and he nodded slowly: "I see, many, many Hilichurls are attacking Mondstadt."

Amber glanced at every familiar face to confirm that everyone was present. She turned to Shao Yun, her tone revealing a hint of urgency.

"Shao Yun, what exactly is that method you mentioned before?"

Shao Yun stretched out his hand and pointed to the only land connection of Mondstadt - the solid stone bridge. His finger paused in the direction of the bridge for a moment, and then he said two words lightly: "Blow up the bridge!"

When these words came out, everyone was shocked. A trace of fear flashed in everyone's eyes. What a crazy plan!

"Blow up the bridge?" Amber repeated, with some uncertainty in her tone, "Are you sure? This is our only land route to the outside world."

Shao Yun nodded and explained, "I know this sounds a little crazy, but the current situation does not allow us to hesitate. We must blow up this bridge. These hillbillies are gathering faster than fucking locusts! As we speak, there are already more than 300 of them!"

As everyone looked around, they saw that the number of the Hillilians had doubled again and was still gathering.

Now there are not only ordinary Hilichul people holding sticks or crossbows, but also some Hilichul thugs carrying axes and shields, as well as the relatively rare Hilichul Shamans who can use elemental power!

From this perspective, blowing up the bridge is indeed a good choice. After all, Mondstadt still has a port, so they won't be trapped to death.

This idea sounded good at first, but Lisa poured cold water on Shao Yun.

"Shao Yun, your idea is good, but this bridge is not so easy to blow up." Lisa said, turning her eyes to the stone bridge and explained.

"This bridge was reinforced by Albedo, the chief alchemist of the Knights of Favonius, using alchemy. Its strength is far beyond our imagination."

Lisa’s words stunned Shao Yun. This was the first time he hated alchemy so much!

Although it was a bit unexpected, he quickly regained his composure.

This is alchemical reinforcement and it is not absolute. As long as the power is sufficient, it is not impossible.

When this thought popped into my mind, I immediately thought of the escaped sun, Klee.

Isn't she useful at this time? Hurry and get her out of the confinement room!

"Let Klee explode! Release Klee from the confinement room and let her explode freely!"

Shao Yun is now like the Jade Emperor when the Monkey King Sun Wukong made trouble in Heaven, and he ordered Lisa to go to the West to invite Buddha Klee!

Lisa's eyes reflected Shao Yun's expectant gaze, and she rubbed her temples dejectedly.

"Captain Jean was worried that no one would take care of Klee, so she asked Albedo to take her to the snow mountains." There was a hint of helplessness in Lisa's voice as she looked towards the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain in the distance.

"It's impossible to let Klee blow up the bridge. We have to find another way."

As she finished speaking, the surroundings seemed to fall into a brief silence, and an indescribable atmosphere filled the air.

Shao Yun was speechless, and kicked hard on the solid city wall, as if to vent all his dissatisfaction and anger. The city wall made a dull sound, which shocked people.

"Good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone!"
