The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 213 Hidden Viper
Inazuma Outer Sea,

A fleet quietly emerged from the thunderstorm.

"How long do you think this thunderstorm will last?"

The scattered soldier looked back at the thunderstorm that had blocked the entire Inazuma, with a serious expression and a hint of longing in his eyes.

Is this the power of the demon god... It's easy to seal off the entire country... But wait, I will soon become a new god... The scattered soldier's eyes flickered, and he looked back at Dotore: "Without the Fatui's advice, will the people of Tianling Bugyo and Kande Bugyo still insist on maintaining the national lockdown order?"

"Why not? This is God's will."

Under the mask, Dotore raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his lips curled up: "What's more, now those two idiots are in a difficult situation. They must and can only continue to support the isolation order, support the eye hunting order, and continue to report the victory results to the gods, and do their best to conceal the damage to Inazuma. Otherwise... heh."

He did not state the consequences, but both present knew it. In Teyvat, no mortal could deceive a god of authority and power and get away with it.

"Besides, after tasting the benefits of being a 'fictional' god, how could these two idiots be willing to return to their original state?" Dotole smiled mockingly: "Once human greed is released, it is not so easy to take it back."

"Human greed..."

The scattered soldier took one last look at the thunderstorm, took a deep breath, and suddenly smiled.

Baalzebub, the god of thunder, possesses the most violent power of thunder in the world. He is the embodiment of thunder between heaven and earth and possesses martial power that is unimaginable for mortals... But whether as a god or as a "mother", He is not so competent.

The soldier shook his head and suppressed his thoughts. Then he remembered something and turned his gaze to Dotore beside him: "Not long ago, the Queen summoned you alone. What was it for?"

"...I did something wrong, and the Queen called me in to give me a lecture, asking me to correct it and make amends in time."

Dotore's face was heavy for a moment, but he quickly turned around, as if it was an illusion. He looked at the scattered soldiers and smiled meaningfully: "That's why I hurried to Inazuma to help you get Inazuma's Heart of God."

"Wrong thing? Something about Liyue?"

The soldier frowned slightly, feeling that Dotore was up to something evil.

"Well, you know it too?"

There was a flash of surprise in Dotore's eyes, and he asked calmly while thinking: "I'm curious, what version did you hear?"

“Are there many more versions?”

"Naturally, I made a mistake and was scolded by the Queen. Naturally, someone might make up several versions to 'help' me publicize it."

"Then you may be disappointed. What I know is the most common version."

The soldier adjusted his large hat and said, "They said you were superfluous in Liyue, sacrificing many Fatui lives and causing a huge commotion, but you didn't bring back the Heart of God from Liyue - it was such a simple mission."

"Yeah, it's such a simple task."

Dottore's tone became relaxed for some reason, and he walked towards the cabin: "That guy Tartaglia did better than me. I heard that he has already set off to return to Solstice - Piero will personally greet him."

[Clown] Piero, the leader of the Faints, the chief of the eleven executive officers, and also the original executive officer.

"why?"

The scattered soldier's eyes widened slightly, and his thoughts on whether Dotore had any conspiracy were interrupted.

Why did Tartaglia deserve such honor, and why did [clown] Piero go to greet him in person?

"Of course it's because he got two God's Hearts back for the Queen during this trip."

...Liyue, Yujingtai.

"I thought you had forgotten, and was wondering whether I should remind you."

Grandma Ping took the Dust-Clearing Bell and first carefully checked its authenticity and condition. Then she raised her head and looked at Zhongli with a smile. The wrinkles in the corners of her eyes looked particularly kind.

Zhongli showed helplessness: "It has only been two days since the Immortal Sending Ceremony."

"There is a saying in Liyue, 'Days pass by like years'. I think it's a good saying."

"...That's all."

Zhongli shook his head and was about to say something when his eyebrows suddenly raised. He turned around and looked in a certain direction, his golden eyes gradually lighting up.

That direction is...Inazuma?
The God of Rock looked across the mountains and seas, responded to the call, and descended on a shrine with a huge cherry tree.

Grandma Ping was stunned at first, but she reacted quickly, put away her playful thoughts, and gently shook the Dust-Cleansing Bell in her hand. An invisible magic circle was instantly activated, shielding and misleading strangers who might be approaching.

"Old man, what's going on?"

"!"

Grandma Ping was startled and turned her head, only to see a green figure who had somehow come up to the side of the Emperor. The figure was standing on tiptoe with his hands in front of his eyes, looking curiously in the direction the Emperor was looking.

But he was a young man as gentle as the breeze, with the faint scent of Cecilia flowers around him.

Wendy retracted her hand and winked at Grandma Ping, smiling slyly and inexplicably with a little pride: "Don't worry, if the old man was disturbed or annoyed by me, he would have punched me away long ago."

Grandma Ping: “…”

Grandma Ping carefully identified him, her expression changed slightly, and she looked a little more serious: "You are... Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind?"

"Oh, don't be so polite, just call me Wendy."

Wendy smiled and waved her hand, then raised a finger, put it to her lips and made a "hush" gesture, then stood on tiptoes again and "looked" towards Narukami Taisha Shrine with a look of surprise and amazement.

What powerful followers of Thundergod!

He silently estimated the distance between Inazuma and Mond, and came up with the answer almost instantly, then sighed in frustration. There was no point in calculating the distance, as Xiao Tianfeng was no longer the same as before. Once it exploded, boom~ the entire Teyvat would be gone~
But for countries that are not at the initial explosion point, there is more or less a chance of surviving and escaping from Teyvat. The farther the distance, the greater the chance.

When Wendy thought of this, her gaze turned to Zhongli, feeling quite resentful.

The old man looked extremely calm, but who would have thought that he was the most radical one? Kong and I put in a lot of effort, but we couldn't achieve half the results that the old man achieved by just going with the flow.

Zhongli witnessed it and turned his gaze away. He was thinking about something when he saw Wendy's resentful gaze. He was silent for two seconds and looked away. His expression was calm and unperturbed: "At least... his blood is not [poisonous] anymore."

"Yes, Xiao Tianfeng is no longer so flashy and blatantly reveals his danger. It's as if he has turned over a new leaf or been cleansed." Wendy sighed pretentiously: "But how is this possible? He has now turned into a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, silently threatening the whole world... Obviously, he is more dangerous!"

"But you seem satisfied." Zhongli glanced at him.

"of course."

Wendy's eyes curved up, her eyes full of smiles, and she said as a matter of course: "I have placed all my chips on Xiao Tianfeng. The more dangerous and powerful he is, the more successful my investment will be."
