Chapter 51: Day 2 of Inazuma's Surroundings
"Yes, Linghua, if you show up, wouldn't you be representing the Society Commissioner and going against General Raiden?"
Paimon also nodded desperately.
As one of the three great envoys directly appointed by General Raiden, going directly against the gods would definitely lead to bigger problems.
"But I..."
"Let me take charge."
Ever since he agreed to join the game, Kong had expected that sooner or later he would come face to face with General Raiden, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
This should be the second time he has gone against God, right?
"Then I'll leave it to you, Sora."
The girl named Princess Egret looked deeply at the blond boy.
When she first heard that the traveler who was very famous in Mondstadt and Liyue had come to Inazuma, she was really happy.
Inazuma's situation became worse and worse under the high pressure of the Eye Hunting Order. In order to maintain stability, her brother had been sleepless for half a month. In order to reduce her brother's burden, she let Thomas approach the traveler.
Linghua did not deny that she had some ideas of taking advantage of him at the beginning, but after getting to know him, she was actually attracted to Kong's personality.
Such a pure, such a dazzling soul...
The little thoughts in her heart were ashamed to appear in the sun.
I hope everything goes well for them.
After Kong left, Kamisato Ayaka lowered her head and prayed silently for her two friends.
In front of the statue of the Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed God, Thomas' hands were tied and two soldiers holding spears stood behind him to prevent him from escaping.
He looked at General Lei Dian in front of him with a bitter smile in his eyes.
In the end, he still couldn't avoid it, but he had expected it.
In order to facilitate Xiao Palace's actions, he often jumped around under the nose of Tianling Fengxing. He guessed that they had been eyeing him for a long time.
After his God's Eye was confiscated, his personality might change drastically like those people, but as long as he is still alive, it's fine. I just hope that Miss and Kong's next plan will go smoothly, so it doesn't matter if he loses his memory.
The purple-haired figure stood before the statue, her back turned to her people.
The people's eyes were focused on her back, but her puppet-like body could not sense any emotions from her subjects.
All she has to do is to complete the [eternity] that belongs to Inazuma according to the original goal set by the subject.
Even though he had prepared himself mentally, Thomas couldn't help but lean forward the moment the Eye of God flew out.
His divine eye carries the deepest memories and the most persistent wishes.
The soldiers on both sides quickly reached out and held him down. They had seen too many people like this. Except for Lord Kujo who voluntarily handed himself over, almost everyone whose Eye of God was confiscated behaved like this.
Suddenly, a golden figure flew out from the sky. The traveler blessed with the element of thunder also gained extremely fast speed. He grasped the Eye of God in mid-air with one hand, facing General Thunder and Lightning. He also saw the surprise in her eyes that had not yet faded.
The soldiers of Tianling Bugxing were about to surround him, but were thrown away by Kong, exposing his ability to drive elemental power without the Eye of God.
General Lei Dian raised his feet and stepped down from mid-air one step at a time.
"You don't need the Eye of God to drive the elemental forces."
"You are... an exception."
In the puppet setting, there is only one solution for conflicts with [Eternity].
“[Exceptions] are the eternal enemy.”
She formed seals with her hands and summoned out the magic sword hidden in her body.
The lightning element spread out in an overwhelming manner, and with the actions of General Thunder, a large amount of lightning elemental power was driven, which dispersed the crowd that had originally gathered together far away, for fear of being hit by a bolt of lightning.
"I will build you into a statue of God."
She said expressionlessly.
The moment she swung the knife, Kong seemed to pass through a very dark passage, and when he opened his eyes, he had arrived at a place that looked very empty.
The Inazuma-style torii gate rises from the ground, and in front of the blood-red moon, there is a figure sitting cross-legged in mid-air.
She slowly opened her eyes.
According to what he had inquired, the journey from Liyue to Inazuma by boat would take at least a month, but Shui Qingli was traveling alone and the speed was much faster than he had imagined.
In just half a month, he saw the outlying island with red maple leaves floating in the air.
However, there were many soldiers in the port to investigate the ships. Even under the hunting order and the policy of seclusion, there were almost no merchant ships willing to come to Inazuma, but some necessities of life were still traded.
"But isn't this a bit too many people?"
He came ashore from another direction, killed the sea ghosts that were stopping on the shore, and looked at the city from above, frowning.
"Are you investigating a wanted criminal?"
There were people searching in every household, and it was obvious that they were looking for the criminal. This was the case on the outlying islands, and Inazuma Castle was no exception.
Eh? Sora and Paimon are wanted?
Wouldn't it be a bit dangerous for a stranger like him to show up now? Moreover, Inazuma now has the Eye Hunting Order. Although his God's Eye is fake, those soldiers will probably not let him go.
Shui Qingli was a little troubled.
Oh my, it seems that I wasted too much time on the way here, and it has already come to this.
Then... why not go to Mulou Teahouse and take a look.
He tapped his hands together and thought with a flash of inspiration.
Anyway, it will take some time for the Traveler to go to Ta'ersha to find the rebels, so it should be okay for him to seek shelter from the two siblings of She Buxing, right?
After all, he is my brother-in-law... Oh, no, he is a good friend of the traveler, I believe that the head of the Kamisato family will not refuse.
On the route from the outlying island to Inazuma Castle, there were not many people except on the Shirante Plain. Once you entered the city, there were soldiers holding two wanted warrants everywhere, catching people for comparison. For this reason, Shui Qingli had to act at night when there were fewer people.
This painting...should I say it looks like the real thing or not...
Standing in front of the notice board with the wanted poster, Shui Qingli pursed her lips and tried to hold back her laughter.
In order to avoid attracting attention, he changed into a dark blue furisode kimono, a specialty of Inazuma, which he exchanged for mura from local villagers in Konda Village. Although his hair was a little bright during the day, the dark blue fabric looked closer to black at night, and the luster of his hair also dimmed, so not many people stared at him.
"This dress is definitely not as comfortable as Liyue's clothes."
This is understandable. Although his Liyue attire looks simple, it is actually a custom-made high-end garment, hand-cut and sewn by the best tailors. It is very expensive, otherwise it would not be recorded in the bill of the Northland Bank.
After all, it was just ordinary clothes for villagers, and the material was not good. Fortunately, he wore a layer of undershirt inside, otherwise he would have been afraid of rubbing his skin red. (Those who think wrongly should consciously face the wall.)
At the door of Mulou Tea House, he raised his head and glanced at the sign with interest in his eyes.
Inside, there is the aura of more than three elemental forces.
