Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

After beating some people and doing good things, Su, who had barely managed to adjust his mood by being busy, returned to the Institute of the Church to find his friends. Recently, Kong and Paimon had been helping out in the Institute of the Church.

Su: "But the disciplinary officer said they just went out. I sent them a message through the void, but it seems the signal was bad and there was no reply."

Acting Great Sage Alhaisen reviewed the documents without even looking up. "So you're here to kill time? Sorry, we can't host guests during work hours."

Sue plopped down on the bench in El Haisen's office and started reading a light novel, "Do you have a blanket? It's a bit cold in your office."

El Haisen: "There is no blanket, and I think you need to learn proper, good reading posture."

Xumi is rich in wood, and local furniture is not stingy with materials, and is made thicker and larger. The tables and chairs are very large and look almost the same as beds.

Su rolled over comfortably and lifted a few pillows to cover his legs.

"It's not about what you think, it's about what I think. I think the most correct and best reading posture is to do whatever is comfortable for you."

After reading a few pages of the light novel, Sue began to yawn non-stop. Calculating the time, she had been sleepless for several days.

Elhaisen stopped writing and said, "Even for me, when I am busy at work and see others relaxing, my mood will be affected."

Sue covered her mouth with her hands and yawned quietly.

Feeling sleepy, Elhaisen pinched his nose and drank half a cup of coffee. "How about going back to the pot to sleep? Your Chen Ge..."

"I'm obviously very quiet! Elhaisen is so noisy and annoying!" The girl with sleepy eyes kicked the pillow all over the place unhappily.

"...Your Chen Ge pot is in my living room." Elhaisen finished speaking, walked over and handed Su a key, "Go back to sleep, don't disturb me while I'm working here."

The Traveler Team is now extremely popular in Xumi, and the scholars can still maintain their rationality and reserve, but those merchants are really too much. Not only do they use various signs to take advantage of the reputation of the Traveler Team, but they also spy on their information in many ways to advertise their own products.

Even Kong, the best-tempered member of the Traveler Team, couldn't stand it anymore and chose to check out of the hotel. Elhaisen, who owned a prime property, lent his unused living room to the Traveler Team to place the Dust Song Pot.

Elhaisen had given the spare key to Kong before, and the key he took out this time was "confiscated" from his roommate who returned home unexpectedly last time.

Su took the key and played with the keychain on it. It was an orange cat with a gear stuck in its head. It looked silly and cute.

El Haisen crossed his arms and urged, "Go back to sleep?"

Su grabbed a pillow and covered his face, "I'm sleepy! I want to sleep now! You are not allowed to talk!"

Elhaisen, who was silenced, waited for a while, and the girl's breathing became slower and deeper. He took away the pillow covering her face and found that she was indeed fast asleep.

The acting great sage, who was not wearing a cloak, sat back at his desk. The slight "squeak" sound of the pen tip rubbing against the paper pages when he was approving documents was a very regular and soothing white noise.

——*——*——

Kong and Paimon received a call from Nashida, asking them to go to Jingshan Palace.

Paimon didn't understand, "Why is Nashida so secretive? She even specifically told us not to bring Su with us this time."

Sora had some guesses, "Maybe [Scattered Soldiers] has woken up. It's not appropriate for Su to meet him for the time being."

As expected, as soon as they arrived at Jingshan Palace, Kong and Paimon saw the [Scattered Soldiers] dressed in red and black.

Paimon was shocked, "Him! How come he looks like he can move freely and without any restrictions!"

How dangerous this is! Paimon looked at her naive and overly kind friend with a look that said "Nahida, you are so confused."

[Scattered Soldier] snorted coldly, his unpretentious attitude was completely unfriendly, but at least he had no intention of taking action.

Nashida asked Paimon, who was worried about her, to rest assured, "I know you are worried about him, but don't worry, I will keep an eye on him and won't allow him to do evil."

Her fighting ability may not be outstanding, but wisdom and communication can open up a path to peaceful coexistence.

Nashida said that she had obtained a lot of valuable information from the [Scattered Soldiers] that even the World Tree didn't know, and reached some agreements.

The once god-like [Scattered Soldier] still has some very useful qualities. He can do some investigation work deep in the World Tree for Nashida.

Nashida has always been concerned about her friends' affairs and worries. "I asked Sora and Paimon to come here this time to investigate information about Sora's blood relatives. I also looked for information about my "sister" from the World Tree before."

Sora and Paimon both looked at Nashida expectantly, waiting for her next words.

"The World Tree preserves the information and memories of the continent of Teyvat, but logically speaking, it cannot record any of you who came to Teyvat from outside the world, at least not directly."

"All the content related to you should be presented indirectly from the 'side'. For example, the adventures you have experienced as told by others, and the memories of the 'locals' you met along the way and your interactions with them."

This is the case for Kong, and this is the case for Su, but she found direct records related to Ying!

"From the records I have access to so far, your relative suddenly appeared in Kanreya. After the catastrophe in Kanreya, she embarked on a journey to all the countries in Teyvat."

The fact that there was a direct record of Ying, who was clearly an outsider, was already very abnormal. What was even more abnormal was that when she continued to look for subsequent records, she found only large blanks.

Nashida looked at Sora, who was frowning in thought. "What I can confirm is that it seems that a being with extraordinary abilities is deliberately covering up her tracks and "fate."

That extraordinary being manipulated Ying abnormally, making her a "native" and "disappeared person" of the continent of Teyvat.

Suspicions kept flashing through Sora's mind: Kanreya, the Abyss Cult, and the [Prophet] Viserfenir who was sealed by the crystal.

There is too little information and evidence, and too many mysteries.

Nashida continued, "In addition, the information I exchanged with the Skirmishers contained a very important part about the Adventers."

[Adventers] refer to alien beings that do not belong to this world.

"According to my judgment, [Heavenly Principle] is the first adventer," Nashida looked at Sora, "and Sora, you are the fourth adventer."

Emptiness can be summarized together with [Heavenly Principle]...

Paimon covered his mouth and found that Sora's rank had suddenly risen to the top of Teyvat.

Wait! What about Sue and her sister? They also came from outside the world! And does this “fourth” refer to the fourth person or the fourth batch?

Kong also said: "Su and my sister..."

Nashida analyzed: "Logically, they should be considered the fourth advent like you, but the Fatui hid the information about Su from the Skirmishers, so I have no way of knowing more."

"In addition, in the Fatui's intelligence system, they did not include your relatives in the category of Adventers. This should be due to the actions of that extraordinary being."

As the embodiment of the World Tree's consciousness, Nashida can easily retrieve information from the World Tree, but is also restricted from easily entering the World Tree.

Nashida looked at [Skirmisher], "He almost became a new generation of god. He was once given the power to connect with the World Tree."

"Going directly into the World Tree may attract information related to you to emerge from the depths of the World Tree. Then I can read the information directly. If you can take care of the [Scattered Soldiers] when you are free, I will be more at ease."

"I will exist beside you in the form of an external navigator, and lead you to move forward safely in the World Tree."
