Genshin Impact: I am really not the European Emperor

“Although becoming a general is my dream, right now my goal is just to be the captain.

"You have to eat your food one bite at a time, and you have to walk the road step by step. I still understand this truth."

Seeing Zheping's humble appearance, Si Bailu nodded appreciatively:

“It’s great to have such an awareness!

"As long as you keep it up, you will become an excellent general sooner or later!"

"Sooner or later..."

A flash of self-mockery appeared in Zheping's eyes, and then he clenched the weapon in his hand:

"Well, I look forward to that day coming soon!"

After saying that, Zheping went to the Coral Palace to resume his life.

Si Bailu looked at the other person's back and felt something was wrong for no reason.

But I couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

He deliberately kept an eye out and planned to find an opportunity to inquire more later.

A celebration banquet was held in the evening.

Si Bailu then learned that Zheping had performed well in this naval battle.

He was promoted to the captain of the new team [Herring Squadron].

Although Kujo Sora did not lead the team in this naval battle, the resistance army was led by Goro.

But even so, victory can still be achieved even when the equipment and army numbers are overwhelmed.

I have to say that the resistance army really has the strength and courage of the older generation of Chinese soldiers!

Si Bailu came to Zheping's side holding a wine glass.

Because we were in the rear area, Xinhai did not ban alcohol.

But we also warn everyone not to get drunk when drinking!

Si Bailu looked at the smile and tipsy look on Zheping's face and knew that he was very happy today.

So he raised his glass and toasted to him:

"Congratulations, Captain Herring.

"I didn't expect you to achieve your first goal so soon."

Seeing that Si Bailu actually toasted to him personally, Zheping was a little flattered.

He quickly picked up the wine glass and showed a joyful smile:

"Brother Bai Lu, you're welcome. Compared with you, my level is far behind."

Si Bailu smiled and shook his head:

“People don’t always have to compare themselves with others, although that will generate temporary motivation.

“But if you never reach the heights of others, you will also have a strong sense of frustration.

“We can definitely compare with who we were yesterday.

"As long as you make progress every day, success will come sooner or later."

Although Si Bailu's words were profound.

But hearing it at this moment sounded like poisonous chicken soup to Zheping's ears.

However, Zheping did not show it, but smiled and nodded:

"Brother Bai Lu's words are always so philosophical."

Si Bailu looked at the other party's smiling face.

With his keen mind, he could sense the deliberate compliment in the other person's words.

He knew that the other party might not have listened to his words.

But that's no big deal.

As long as the other party doesn't go astray, there's nothing wrong with comparing yourself to such a trivial matter.

Si Bailu swung his wine glass and asked casually:

"Speaking of which, I can be promoted to captain this time.

"It means your performance in naval battles should be quite outstanding, right?"

Zheping, who was already a little drunk, did not realize that Si Bailu was testing him. Instead, he smiled and nodded:

"That's right! In this battle, I feel braver than ever before!"

At this point, Zheping suddenly realized something and scratched his head in an honest manner:

"But thinking about it, I feel this way because the special training given by Brother Bailu and Traveler over the past few days has had an effect!"

Si Bailu saw what the other party was hiding and frowned imperceptibly.

But then he brought up something else:

"Speaking of which, have you ever eaten the food cooked by Mr. Coral Palace?"

Zheping was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"How could I eat it?

"Looking at your proud face, I'm afraid you've already tasted it, right?"

Si Bailu chuckled:

"I did taste it. Xinhai got the pink caviar from somewhere.

“Each one is full of grains!

“The fragrance after biting is accompanied by the deliciousness of the sauce...

"Tsk, tsk, what a rare delicacy in the world!"

Seeing Si Bailu's complacent expression, Zheping couldn't help but laugh and curse:

"You're such a bitch, be sure to leave some for me to try next time you have a chance!"

"no problem."

Si Bailu responded and ended the conversation with the other party.

The moment he turned around, the smile on his face instantly faded.

After looking around, Si Bailu walked towards the other members of the Herring Squadron.

After chatting with the team members, Si Bailu began to sigh to them:

"Your captain is really amazing. Not long after joining the army, you became the captain.

"It seems that this guy is very capable even without the Eye of God."

The team members nodded in agreement:

"Yeah, we didn't expect that Captain Zheping would be so fierce in this naval battle.

"Compared to before, I feel like a different person, my strength has improved so obviously!

“That vigorous skill and mighty strength.

"Even against a first-level shogunate samurai, he was able to escape unscathed!

“Thanks to him, many soldiers were saved by Zheping.

"This is why we can become members of the Herring Squadron."

After hearing these words, Si Bailu had basically confirmed a certain guess in his mind.

But he didn't say much to the team members, but encouraged them.

Then he went to find Coral Palace Xinhai, who was also attending the celebration banquet, and pulled him aside.

Looking at Si Bailu's solemn expression.

Xinhai immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly asked what happened.

-

After Si Bailu pondered for two seconds, he slowly spoke:

"I suspect...Zheping used the evil eye!"

"What?" Xinhai's pupils trembled, "Is there any evidence?"

Si Bailu shook his head slightly:

“There is no clear evidence yet, but I just went to test Zheping’s words.

"And I got to know the members of the Herring Squadron.

“This is basically certain!

"In this naval battle, Zheping's performance was too amazing.

“Although I personally taught him the traveler before.

“But whether it’s combat skills or combat experience, it takes a certain amount of time to hone.

“It can’t be effective in such a short period of time.

“The most important thing is that I learned from members of the Herring Squadron.

"Zhe Ping was able to escape unscathed from a reverse-level opponent!

“Ordinary people may not know what that concept is.

“But Xinhai, you should be very aware of how incredible that is, right?

“Even if Zheping breaks through the limits of ordinary people and reaches the Chengchen level.

"Facing an opponent of reversal level, it is impossible to have the power to parry.

"What's more, judging from his usual performance, he has not reached Chengchen level at all.
