Genshin Impact: Start by establishing the Kingdom of Winter

The light of the candle was so bright that the candle was still shining.

Late at night, in the desolate and dilapidated ruins, a long-abandoned house lit up a faint light, which was particularly conspicuous in this quiet and desolate place.

"These witches and spellcasters' things are really useful."

Daniel touched his chin and looked at the row of candles around him and said, "A candle can be so bright and last for nearly ten hours."

"That's because this thing is very expensive, so the effect is so good."

"Is it expensive?" Daniel looked at Jacqueline puzzled.

Jacqueline moved her mouth, and after a long while she said, "Each of these special candles is equivalent to the living expenses of an ordinary family in Vestalia for one month."

"Well, okay." Daniel touched his head. Although he still felt it was cheap, considering the presence of Pine, a commoner, he couldn't say much.

Except for Pine, everyone present here is of noble origin. Although there is a certain gap in status, everyone is a classmate and friend.

"Okay, tonight's test of courage will begin."

Daniel laughed and placed the candles in front of everyone.

After they cleaned up this house, except for the hall, the other rooms were either leaking or the floor was rotten, and people couldn't live there at all.

But fortunately, they all brought portable sleeping bags.

"Annie, didn't you like playing the Ouija board when you were in school? Let's play enough this time!"

Annie was uneasy after hearing this. She liked playing this kind of psychic game very much, but when she played, there was a specially hired witch to help her defend against the spirit world.

Now she was alone, and although she had witch stuff on her, she was still scared.

"But... can we not play?"

Annie sat down next to Cindy timidly. Cindy patted her hands gently and said gently: "Everyone, Annie doesn't want to play anymore, can we give up?"

"Don't spoil everyone's fun!"

Daniel answered without thinking: "You were the most excited when we were going to come here before, but you gave up first, so we came here in vain."

"This... I don't want to either." Anne cried and wrapped the blanket on her body: "But this place is too desolate, I always feel uneasy in my heart."

"Uneasy? This doesn't sound like what you would say." Jacqueline and Pine also looked at Anne curiously.

"I, I, I... I just suddenly felt that it was not good to play the courage test here."

"Don't worry, with Jacqueline and I here, we will ensure that you are safe."

Daniel patted his chest and said, "And Pine, he is a master in studying the spirit world. His last paper on the spirit world was praised by his tutor."

"He knows more about the spirit world than we do."

Pine nodded and said, "I dare not say that I know everything about the spirit world, but at least I have a basic understanding."

"Jacqueline's spindle is a cursed item of the witch, which has a strong restraint on things that defend the spirit world."

"In addition, the magic pattern weapon, the attached magic power can hurt the spirit body."

This so-called courage test is not just a simple courage test, they have other purposes.

Research on the spirit world is a subject that can get high scores in Vestalia College.

So in order to get a doctorate as soon as possible, they sponsored Pine, who specializes in studying the spirit world, to come to Liyue. After watching the founding ceremony, they came here without stopping.

This is the so-called brushing qualifications. After getting the doctoral title, they will stand out from other nobles in the future, whether they are in politics or doing other things.

They have known Anne for so many years, but this is the first time they have seen her like this.

Usually, whether in school or other places, Anne is the kind of outgoing and lively, belonging to the happy fruit of a group, and everyone likes her.

But after coming here, Anne looked uneasy, which was really abnormal.

"I think... Anne is not feeling well, so don't force her to play the psychic game." Cindy raised her hand and said weakly: "Maybe it's a bad omen."

Everyone was silent for a long time, and the quiet air around spread in this room.

Finally, Anne couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed her hair and shouted: "Okay, okay, I understand."

"Just play, maybe I'm just worrying too much!"

Seeing Anne's broken jar, everyone breathed a sigh of relief

Annie's previous actions could easily cause instability and lead to the failure of the test of courage.

Only Cindy lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Okay, Annie, the Ouija board is in your hands."

Daniel pushed the Ouija board in front of Annie.

The thin Ouija board was full of runes. It was not an ordinary Ouija board, but was carved from obsidian. After being cast a spell by a witch, it could not only truly summon spirits, but also effectively control and even defend against the attacks of spirits.

This was also the reason why everyone was fearless, and they were well prepared.

"The camera is ready, and it can start." Jacqueline fiddled with the camera for a while and pointed it forward.

"Then, start recording."

With a "click", the camera began its recording work.

After looking at each other, they placed their fingers on the silver pointer on the Ouija board, which was embedded in the Ouija board.

After a few seconds, everyone closed their eyes and took several deep breaths before speaking:

"Everyone in the spirit world, please tell me the direction of truth."

Then the silver needles on their fingers began to shake, which meant that the spiritual communication was successful.

"Everyone in the spirit world, can you tell me..."

Daniel, Jacqueline and Pine all asked questions to the summoned spirits according to the questions they had preset before.

The answers of the spirits to these questions made them overjoyed. The camera recorded it faithfully. When they go back, their papers will definitely receive a lot of praise.

When it was Anne's turn, she asked, "Will we be in danger in this test of courage?"

The silver needle on the spiritual board crossed "yes" and "no", shaking back and forth between the two answers.

"What does this mean?"

Anne thought for a while and asked, "Some of us will be in danger, while others will not. Is that what it means?"

The silver needle pointed to "yes".

"Who is in danger then!" Annie asked in panic, "Is it me? Or Daniel? Jacqueline, Pine, Cindy, and the others?"

The silver needle suddenly stopped moving.

At this moment, Annie suddenly found that several people were looking at her with panic expressions.

"Annie, who is Cindy you are talking about?"

"Cindy is Cindy, what's wrong with you?"

"Quickly wake up, there are only four of us from the beginning to the end! There is no such person as Cindy!"

Daniel shouted at Annie.

Annie suddenly found that Cindy did not participate in the questions on the Ouija board, and her fingers were not on the silver needle.

"Cindy, you..." Annie opened her eyes wide and looked at Cindy, only to see the other party make a very harsh voice:

'Didn't I tell you not to force Annie to play the game of the Test of Courage Conference? Why don't you listen to me? "
