Chapter 170: The Conversation between Khediv and Andre, the Conversation between Xianyun and Xiangli
After Ruoxue went to Liyue Harbor to hang out, Xianyun went back to his research institute to carry out his own research. Haidi discussed with Jinwu the specific time for the exploration team to move. Before that, he had to go to the camp of the Ninth Company stationed near the exploration team to talk to Captain Andre.
Because, Tianhe and his team have already dealt with the black mud and black fog in the nameless ruins area, but there may still be potential dangers that the exploration team cannot solve. As for the elite of the Fatui of the Ninth Company, they are professional in dealing with these things, so Haidifu naturally has to talk to Andre about this matter.
"Who is it? Ah, it's Mr. Khediv. Our captain has been waiting in the tent for a long time. Please come in." The one guarding the door was Katarina's brother Nicholas. He was on duty today. When he saw Khediv coming, he let him in directly. Khediv thanked him politely, "Oh, thank you."
Nicholas replied enthusiastically, "You're welcome. Please come in. Ah, Captain, you're here." Andre greeted him, "Good evening, Mr. Khediv, I didn't expect you to come to me at this time. It seems that Her Majesty the Princess and His Highness Tianhe have succeeded?" It was Andre who said this. He couldn't wait any longer, so he came out.
"Speaking of which, I heard it from Zhenjun. According to her, Tianhe and his men won a great victory in the battle against the Abyss Cult down there. Your executive officer was in a group with Xianyun, and they ambushed the Abyss Cult and rang the bell together. I don't know the details. As for why Tianhe and his men didn't come back, probably only Zhenjun knows."
Haidifu brought the topic back to the point. "Anyway, I came here to see you because of one more thing. Mr. Andre, can you let the Ninth Company go into the nameless ruins area to help us deal with some potential threats? After all, Tianhe and the others have already driven away the Abyss Cult, and there won't be any threats left."
"Well, regarding this matter, the executive officer told me that I will be fully responsible when she is not around. My answer is that I agree to your request. After all, this is also one of our tasks. Well, we will inform you later." Andre agreed to his request and extended his hand to Hedif.
"Well, it's a pleasure working with you." "Yes, it's a pleasure working with you. Well, Mr. Andre, I'll go back first. I still have some things to take care of at the exploration team. Goodbye." After receiving the good news, Hedi said goodbye to Andre, left the camp where the 9th Company was stationed, and naturally returned to the exploration team.
The Ninth Company, under Andre's orders, quickly dismantled the camp here, loaded all kinds of equipment into the evil eye, and then headed to the nameless ruins area. This was originally their mission, but the executive officer escorted them, otherwise, the Ninth Company would definitely die after going down.
The nameless ruins below were heavily guarded by the Abyss Cult, not to mention the black fog and black mud that interfered with their progress. In addition to the complex terrain, the exact number of enemies was unknown, and they were basically dead once they entered. Fortunately, they were no longer fighting alone, but had reinforcements and supply lines.
Therefore, the 32 members of the Ninth Company were absolutely confident in completing the mission. Compared with the previous collapse of the army, their morale was now high. At the same time, Ruoxue went directly to the Hall of the People after returning to Liyue Harbor. Anyway, for her, it was just a vacation.
After she arrived at Wanmin Hall, she found that it was still open at this time. Xiangling saw someone outside, so she ran out to see, "Hello, we are about to close. What do you want to eat? Hey, Sister Ruoxue, you are here. Please take a seat. I haven't seen you for a while recently. I heard that a lot of things happened in the Layered Abyss. Sister Ruoxue, do you know about it?"
Ruoxue looked around and confirmed that no one was watching them. But to be on the safe side, she still used elemental power to block the surroundings. She answered Xiangling's question, "Well, actually Tianhe and I went to deal with the specific reason for the blockade of the Layered Rock Abyss. In fact, it was the Abyss Cult who did it. We fought a big battle with the Abyss Cult down there."
Xiangling was stunned. It took her a long while to react. "Ah! Such a big thing happened. You are not hurt, right? Look at how happy Sister Ruoxue is. It's obvious that you have won a great victory." Ruoxue patted Xiangling's head and nodded. "Well, Xiangling is right. It is true. However, you are not the first one to know it."
"Huh? I'm not the first one to know it. Wait, Sister Ruoxue, did you go to Heyu Teahouse before? Why did I smell the unique scent of Yunjin?" As a little cook, Xiangling is very sensitive to this aspect, especially Yunjin, who also likes Brother Tianhe, even though Xiangling and she are still good friends.
However, after Brother Tianhe came, the two of them immediately had their own agenda and became superficial besties. Ruoxue didn't expect Xiangling's little nose to be so sharp. She could only helplessly answer, "I did go to the Heyu Teahouse before. After all, I stayed in the Layered Rock Abyss for such a long time and was too bored, so I came here to have some fun. You see, I'll come to find you later."
"Well, Sister Ruoxue, what do you want to eat? After we prepare it for you, we will close and I will cook for you." Xiangling said as she took out a menu and handed it to Ruoxue. Ruoxue looked at the menu and said, "Then let's have a few of your specialties. They are large in quantity and will fill you up. Just make them quickly." "Okay, please wait."
Ruoxue saw Xiangling hurriedly running to the kitchen, so she found a seat and sat down, patiently waiting for Xiangling's dish to be ready. After Xiao Yunjin had dealt with all her affairs, she sneaked out to eat at Wanmin Hall, and then she saw Ruoxue sitting at a table in Wanmin Hall.
Ruoxue naturally saw Xiao Yunjin as well. She waved her hand, beckoned Xiao Yunjin over, and asked, "Yunjin, sit next to me. Why are you here? Shouldn't you go home at this time?" Yunjin replied honestly, "Well, I want to eat something delicious. By the way, Sister Ruoxue, didn't you go back to the Layered Rock Abyss? Why did you suddenly come to Wanmin Hall? You must want to eat too."
Yun Jin teased while observing Ruoxue's expression slyly. Sure enough, Ruoxue's eyes were vague for a moment. She really wanted to come to Wanmin Hall to eat. "I didn't expect you to find out. Forget it, I'll treat you. Xiangling will prepare it soon." Soon after she said this, Xiangling brought the prepared food over. To be continued~
