Chapter 50 The Envoy with the Knife

Yujingtai.

The preliminaries lasted for half a day, and Ke Qing and Ning Guang, who were the opening hosts, seemed to have left the scene early in the morning.

And at the same time, because the losers of the competition will leave, apart from the official staff, there are not many contestants in Yujingtai today.

Um.
Except for the downcast adventurer Xiaoqian who couldn't find his opponent, there were exactly ten people.

"Speaking of which, my luck is really good. When I woke up, I happened to bump into a player with a slightly worse score."

Looking at the young man who was squeezed out of the ranking not far away, Ningzhe was still a little emotional.

"."

However, Natalie just glanced at him and didn't answer his words.

According to her experience, every time Ning Zhe finished saying such words, a big one would come immediately.

"I remember, it seems that Natalie has a special profession, what is it called. Flame Guard?"

Sure enough, Ning Zhe quickly opened his mouth as if he didn't care.

The tone was flat, as if it was mentioned casually.

"That's right, Flame Guard is Nata's unique profession."

It is no surprise that Ningzhe will talk about this, and Natalie immediately said: "Those people you met in the Nata Tavern before. People who don't have the eyes of God, but can drive elemental power to a certain extent, They are the Flameguard."

"Even if there are not many such occupations in the whole Nata, right?"

"That's natural." Natalie nodded, and said cleanly: "Just like Liyue's alchemist, the training and background of the Flame Guard are almost passed down from generation to generation."

That's it
In Nata's tavern back then, there were indeed a group of people with such characteristics.

But most of them are serious, in Ningzhe's view, they are like a group of killing machines without emotion.

"I have another question."

"uh-huh?"

Natalie raised her head and tilted her head to look at Ningzhe with some doubts.

"Being able to understand so many things, plus you being so chic and at ease in Liyue... Tell me, who are you?"

Ning Zhe's expression has not changed, and he has maintained a faint smile from the beginning to the end.

"."

As if she didn't expect Ningzhe to ask such a straightforward question, Natalie was stunned for a moment.

But soon, she reacted.

"I'm Natalie, the Natalian who was defeated by you."

Ning Zhe didn't seem to hear, nor did he respond.

"My full name is Natalie Konya. I am the eldest daughter of the Konya family and the only heir to the family."

Seeing Ningzhe's reaction, Natalie said everything without hesitation.

"The eldest daughter of the Konya family?!"

Compared with Natalie's calmness, Ningzhe's expression is much more exciting.

While knowing Natalie's identity might be extraordinary, he didn't expect it either.
Ningzhe took a deep breath.

"What's the matter, is it strange? Or, do you think the heir of the Konya family shouldn't look like me?"

Natalie just rolled her eyes and spoke angrily.

"No, of course not. I'm just a little, uh, surprised."

Good guy!
Why are all the big people I met along the way?

Originally, Ningzhe really thought that Natalie was just a very talented Nata girl, at most she might be a lady from a famous family.
Unexpectedly, she is indeed a famous family, but the "famous family" has reached a terrifying level.

Konya family
In the sense that Liyue people can understand, the Konya family's status in Nata is no less than that of the Seven Star Gate in Liyue.

Even because they have mastered the special power of [Flame Guard], they even have a decisive weight in the eyes of the officials.

But to be honest, Ningzhe didn't want this to happen.

Because the more noble the girl in front of her is, the more ambiguous Nata's attitude towards Liyue will be.

"I know what you are worried about. But I can assure you that Nata is not against Liyue, and the Konya family has absolutely no malice towards Liyue."

Seeing that Ningzhe didn't speak, Natalie said bluntly: "No matter what Nata's attitude towards Liyue is, as long as I'm still in the Konya family, Konya can't be against Liyue."

As long as you're still here, Konya won't attack Liyue?
What an unrealistic declaration.

"Then what about the Flame Guard who appeared at Yunhai Bookstore yesterday?"

Suddenly, Ningzhe raised his head and looked straight at Natalie.

Flame Guard?

"."

These words seemed to hit Natalie's only pain point, and Natalie, who had always looked calm, fell silent.

The Flame Guard Natalie who appeared at Yunhai Bookstore knew about it.

"If you don't want to say it, I can understand, and I have no reason to question you."

After being silent for a while, Ning Zhe suddenly smiled and stood up.

"...Just, I hope you can remember what you have said."

Afterwards, Ningzhe nodded slightly at Natalie, and walked towards Yunhai Bookstore without looking back.

Looking at Ningzhe's back, Natalie clenched her fists tightly.

She knows better than anyone.

Although she is the only heir of the Konya family and also a once-in-a-century genius in the family, she still cannot fundamentally disobey the family's decision.

如果
If one day, the family declares war on Liyue.
If one day, the family asks her to go to Liyue to create chaos.
What will she do?

"What will she do?"

After dealing with the Qianyan army stationed at Yujingtai, Ningzhe embarked on the way back to the bookstore alone.

Along the way, although people come and go, Ningzhe has no time to take care of them.

That day, if it weren't for the strength of the workers who beat the workers, the flame guard
Maybe, that warrior from Nata will rush into Yunhai Bookstore, burn books wantonly, and even attack Ningzhe.

After learning the news, Ningzhe noticed that there seemed to be differences within the Nata Mission almost immediately.

However, due to the lack of information, he has been unable to have a definite explanation.

Just now, Natalie confessed everything to him and made him sort everything out.

The highest commander of this mission from Natalie must be Natalie.

But under her, there will be some core members from the Konya family.

They have good strength and strong observation skills, but they are definitely not here to protect Natalie.

even
They were probably here to stop Natalie from making some decisions she shouldn't have made.

No.

Compared with stopping Natalie, Ningzhe is more curious about another point.

——Why are they so sure that Natalie will make a decision against the will of the family?

Hard to do.
"Boss Ning? Why did you come down? Is the game over?"

While walking, someone suddenly stopped Ning Zhe.

Subconsciously looking over, Ning Zhe realized that this person was a player who participated in the competition before.

"Ah, it can be said that it is over. After all, the number of people has been determined, but the time has not yet come."

"Really. Then I'm sorry to ask, who are those people in the top ten?"

"The top ten people?"

Ningzhe rubbed his head, and said helplessly: "I only remember that girl from Nata, Fengyan, the instructor of Qianyan Army, and a person named "Jiang Guo"."

"Didn't you make the top ten?"

"Oh, and me."

"Let me just say, Boss Yi Ning's performance in defeating that guy Degui, it's impossible not to make it into the top ten!"

Hey, it's actually a player who watched the match between himself and Degui?

"Just a fluke."

Ning Zhe touched his nose in embarrassment.

"Wait! Did you mention a person named Jiang Guo just now?"

Suddenly, the person exclaimed again.

"What's the matter? Is there something strange about this person?"

Seeing the contestant's reaction so violently, Ning Zhe spoke with some doubts.

"He came from Wangshu Inn. It is said that he is quite famous in Taoism. I don't know the rest."

Famous on the road?

Or from Wangshu Inn?
That place is not easy
Moreover, looking at the reaction of the person in front of him, it seems that this "Jiang Guo" is not as light as he said.

Um.
Is he also a variable?
