Genshin Impact, I'm Slime

The solemn and elegant banquet hall was filled with people, the dim candles burned slowly, and the guests feasted as if they would never have enough. Even the air was filled with the smell of plumpness, like fresh fruits.

When Pantalone was young, Liyue's predecessor Tianquanxing, for unknown purposes, excessively blurred the legal boundaries and allowed mergers and monopolies. The lives of many people at the bottom were like dishes on the table, being horribly destroyed. Established institutions gradually erode away.

Pantalone was one of the dishes on the table until he left Liyue by boat.

As soon as Famas finished speaking, Pantalone, who always maintained dignity and elegance in front of the young man, suddenly bent down and leaned close to the table.

At first he was motionless, which made people wonder if he had suffered a sudden illness, but the tips of the big banker's hair began to tremble more and more, and then a low-pitched laughter came:
"Hahaha... Mr. Famas, this is really one of the funniest jokes I've ever heard."

Famas said nothing, just looked at Pantalone with disgust and shook his head helplessly.

He just told a cold joke, is it necessary to laugh like this?
But Pantalone seemed to be laughing at all the rudeness in his life, and had no intention of stopping. He leaned back as if he was used to it, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, but his eyes were as cold as the snow in the northern country.

Even a god like Famas, who has been dormant for thousands of years, can clearly see the nature of Liyue's class and society, but as the god of wealth, Morax... why is he silent about the exploitation and oppression under his rule?
Pantalone didn't say anything more. The handsome banker regained his polite appearance. If it weren't for the chiseled silver cane in his hand that was engraved with the iconic emblem of the Fools, almost no one would associate him with the Fools. This frightening existence is connected.

Famas and Pantalone were sitting in the high seats, witnessing the splendor at their feet made of blood and appetite.

Of course, perhaps we also have to include Irina, the lady behind the mirror who has become a transparent person.

The three of them remained relatively silent. Suddenly, an uproar came from the other side of the venue. It was like dropping a piece of ice into boiling water. The strange silence instantly spread like a tide in the originally bustling venue. .

Even the guests' eating movements paused for a moment, followed by a sudden flash of golden light and rock elemental power sweeping in like a mountain and sea.

Famas turned his head slightly and looked towards the source of the light.

"What happened here... Everyone immediately gave up resistance and accepted the investigation!"

The person who came was none other than Yuheng Xingkeqing. She was holding the Blade of Fengfeng sent by Zhongli. Her gauze gown full of pearls and snow-green hair swayed behind her.

Behind her was a large group of heavily armed Qianyan Army soldiers. Judging from their sharp swords and halberds, well-dressed armor, and unsquinting eyes, they were obviously elite soldiers who guarded the border all year round.

As one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, Keqing certainly has the authority to directly mobilize the Qianyan Army Guards in an emergency. At this moment, the Qianyan Army soldiers who poured into the banquet hall quickly blocked all entrances and exits in the building, pointing their spears at each other and biting each other. guests, as well as Ning Lan, who stood in the center of the main booth with a cold face.

The powerful and wealthy people who were originally in a frenzy seemed to suddenly wake up. They put down the food in their hands and looked around blankly.

What just happened? Why are their cuffs and collars covered in grease? besides……

"Blood? Why is there blood here...ah! My arm! My arm!!"

"Yinyuan Hall...Doctor, where is doctor, help me..." The silence of the dignitaries only lasted for a moment. As the first cry of panic rang out, the entire venue exploded like a pan of oil splashed with cold water. , wailings and screams came one after another, bowls overturned, tables and chairs overturned. The frightened dignitaries tried to flee the banquet, but were suppressed by the Qianyan Army holding spears and blades. They were also mixed with yells and curses.

In fact, once the "meat sacrifice ceremony" starts, it will not stop easily. Even if someone breaks in during the process, the intruder will also be affected by his appetite and become a part of this gluttonous feast.

But Keqing was obviously not one of them. The Kaifeng Blade in his hand was surrounded by a rich golden amber light, which spread out in all directions with the Yuheng Star as the center, quickly quelling the appetite that filled the venue.

"Sure enough... this guy Morax took the initiative."

Famas in the stands stared closely at the black gold sword in Ke Qing's hand. Ning Lan, the instigator of the ceremony, did not take any action. He just frowned and looked at the noisy and chaotic banquet hall, as well as Qian Yan who surrounded the main booth and kept approaching him. Army soldier.

The meat sacrifice ceremony can absorb the appetite of mortals almost infinitely, but it still has the common problem of "ritual magic", that is, it has a strong rejection of non-similar divine powers. Once it is intruded by the power of other gods during the process, the ritual will be invalid at first and worst at worst. Then it will backfire on its owner.

Pantalone and Irina were able to get rid of the influence of the Meat Sacrifice because of the divine power of war actively released by Famas. The Blade of the Peak in Keqing's hand was even more powerful. It had been worn by the rock god Morax for many years. The sword is already infiltrated by divine power, not to mention that it also contains the oath and ambition made by the Rock God when Liyue was founded.

Zhongli's willingness to hand over this weapon to Keqing may also represent Liyue's inheritance of fire.

The noisy and chaotic situation was quickly brought under control by the Qianyan Army led by Ke Qing. Surprisingly, the originally excited guests suddenly calmed down. Many of the injured found that their bleeding wounds did not feel any pain at all. There is also a different kind of joy:

"We will eventually be torn apart and then put back together again at the hands of God, until the greatest end comes."

Although the atmosphere at the venue was a little strange, Ke Qing still came to Ning Lan with a stern face and pointed her sword at the opponent.

"The Qianyan Army has completely blocked all entrances and exits of the Golden House... Ninglan, let's capture him without mercy."

Keqing's intimidation and words obviously did not scare Ning Lan. Not only that, the director of Yinyuan Hall was even able to chat and laugh while surrounded by Qianyan Army, and glanced at the dignitaries present with contemptuous eyes.

"Miss Keqing is heroic and neat, and she is worthy of being the youngest Liyue Qixing. No wonder the profit-seeking elders in the Yuheng family are willing to promote you to the position of Qixing."

Ninglan didn't seem to regard Keqing as a threat. Her words seemed to imply something, and she turned her gaze to the hidden corner of the banquet hall.

"But since Master Ningguang is attending the banquet, why should he be secretive? Could it be that after the death of Morax, Qixing will be at his wits' end?"

These disrespectful words immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the banquet hall. Ke Qing's eyes were cold, and then she looked sideways slightly and looked into the shadow where Ning Guang was.

Ning Guang, who witnessed the whole process of the ceremony, finally walked out of the darkness. Her noble and elegant temperament was like an orchid in the gauze. She was never ostentatious, but once ordinary people's eyes caught that beauty, they could not leave her with all their attention. .

The only regret is that Ningguang's face is now frosty, completely opposite to his usual friendly appearance. (End of chapter)
