Chapter 424 Hate Overtime
Ying, who was listening to the conversation between the two, blinked her big eyes silently.
I don't know why, but what's happening right now gives me an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.
It was as if I had experienced the same incident once before.
Emmm...
The clever IQ occupied the high ground, and the wise Ying immediately discovered the key point.
This was what they seemed to be like in Mond before.
Relying on Funina's relationship, they avoided official inspections and became familiar to many bigwigs.
It even received a certain degree of recognition!
Now this development...
Could it be that he is trying to curry favor with someone else again?
As if she had sensed something, Ying subconsciously looked towards Kong, only to see that Kong was also looking at her.
The two looked at each other and saw the meaning in each other's eyes.
It is a good thing to cling to someone's thighs!
A smile at each other, everything is said without words.
……
Under Yan You's control, everyone quickly arrived at Tianren Terrace.
Walk down from the Mingxia Fusheng Stone and look around, the Tianren Tower of Tianren Terrace will come into view.
Tianren Tower is a three-story building built on the giant Mingxia Fusheng Stone. The outer edge of each floor is engraved with immortal runes that combine attack and destruction.
A wide and straight avenue leads to the magnificent gate of Tianren Tower like a giant dragon.
On both sides of the avenue, four guards also dressed in mighty armor stood like a Great Wall of Steel. Their postures were as straight as pine trees, their eyes were as sharp as eagles, and they were always vigilant.
In his hand, he held a sharp spear that flashed with cold light, as if he was ready to deal with any threat at any time.
"Come with me, everyone." Yan You walked in front and waved to everyone, "I think Captain Ling Yu will be very happy to know that you are here."
Yan You didn't know whether Ling Yu was happy or not, but he was quite happy anyway.
Entering the Tianren Building, there was nothing special about the layout of the building. There was just a service desk, a few tables and chairs, and some scribbled and revised documents on the desk.
"Captain, guess who I brought this time...?"
The first words Yan You said when he entered the gate were to shout out in a mysterious tone, but when he looked carefully, he did not see Ling Yu.
"That's strange, could it be..."
As if he had thought of something, Yan You's expression was a little strange.
"What's wrong?" Sereshil followed Yan You and looked around at the door. "Where's Captain Ling Yu? Why can't I see him?"
"This..." A hint of hesitation flashed across Yan You's face, but after thinking for less than half a second, he still felt that he should cover up for his captain.
After all, all members of the Tianshu team know what kind of person their captain is.
"Captain Ling Yu should be doing something important on the third floor now. Please rest here for a while. I will go and inform the captain."
After saying this, Yan You hurriedly moved the unused chairs nearby in front of several people, which just corresponded to the number of people in the current tour group.
After doing all this, he hurriedly walked up the stairs... Judging from the situation, he should be going to inform Ling Yu.
After Yan You left, several people sat on the chairs and started chatting.
"Why doesn't this Tianren Building look as beautiful as it is from outside?" Paimeng looked around, somewhat confused.
"It's so beautiful outside, why does it look a bit ordinary inside?"
"This has something to do with some traditions in the Eastern Region." Hearing this, Sereshil smiled and explained, "In this vast region of the Eastern Region, because of the rules set by the Great Supreme in the past, the Immortal Species are almost everywhere in the Eastern Region."
"Immortal species..." Paimon murmured.
"Yes, it's the immortal species." Cerehil nodded and pointed at herself with her little hand. "For example, I am a mermaid among the immortal species."
"The mermaid race has a lifespan of three thousand years. If they are blessed by the gods, they can live for more than a thousand years!"
"Wow!" Hearing this, Paimon opened his mouth in amazement, "So you, Ceresel, can live so long..."
"No wonder he is an immortal species!"
Having said that, Paimeng was slightly confused again.
"But what does this have to do with the tradition you're talking about?"
"Of course there is a connection." Serethil's face was full of seriousness. "According to the rules set by the Great Supreme, mortals are not allowed to become the rulers of the countries in the Eastern Region."
"Why is this?" Paimon was a little confused.
Kong and Ying, who heard the conversation between the two, also looked over there.
To be honest, they were also curious about the setting of this rule.
As for Funina...she frowned and took out a device similar to headphones.
This is a special synaesthesia game device that allows people to truly experience the charm of the game world from a first-person perspective.
At this moment, her gaming friend “How can a gambler lose every day” was sending her a message.
[How can a gambler lose every day?]: "Small Cake Destroyer" (Funina's game ID) quickly go online to fight the boss, the cave boss has been refreshed!
Seeing this message, Funina was slightly moved.
Come to think of it, she hasn't been online for a long time...
Just when she had the idea of going online to fight the dungeon boss, this game friend sent her a new message.
[How can a gambler lose every day]: I knock! Someone called me offline, it’s probably because of something. I’m afraid I won’t have a chance to fight the dungeon boss this time. Damn this job. I finally got a chance to slack off. How can it be easy for me? Aaaaaa… I hate work!!!
The corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and Funina sighed unconsciously in her heart.
Poor workers...
On the other hand, Serethil also began to explain the question of "why mortals cannot serve as rulers".
"...As we all know, compared to the immortal species, most mortals only live for 130 years, so within this short period of time, they have many pursuits."
"Due to lack of time, in order to achieve their goals and fulfill their 'dreams' in a shorter time, they always look for opportunities to bypass the threshold and achieve their goals in one step in a special way."
"Some people accept bribes to satisfy their desire for more wealth."
"Some people equate power with beauty, causing sin to continue to grow."
"Some people deliberately murder others just because they are jealous of their happiness..."
"Human emotions are complex and terrifying."
"So the Great Supreme foresaw all this in advance and prevented all mortals in the Eastern Region from becoming rulers."
"So that's how it is..." Paimon lowered his head and thought about it carefully.
Kong and Ying also recalled the things they encountered when they traveled to other worlds in the past...
Just as a few people were chatting, Yan You opened the door of his office on the third floor of Tianren Building.
"Captain, you're slacking off again, aren't you?"
Yan Youxu looked at the desk with a pair of eyes, the movement was a little unnatural, but the expression on his face did not change, just like Ling Yu who was as cold as ice.
"Really?" Ling Yu pretended to be doubtful.
"Alas..." Yan You sighed, feeling helpless about his captain's stubborn mouth that would still exist even after cremation, "Captain, it's time to work overtime."
"?!!!" Ling Yu's expression changed slightly, but he quickly adjusted back.
You know, he just made an appointment with those stupid netizens to fight the BOSS online together!
"It's Miss Ceresil and Miss Fininna. They brought three followers here. I guess they want to get certificates for the three followers."
After saying this, he turned around and left without mercy.
Ling Yu stared blankly at Yan You as he left, until he could no longer see her, then he slammed his head on the table.
“I hate working overtime…”
He spoke word by word, his voice full of resentment.
……
After explaining the issue that mortals are not allowed to serve as rulers, the few people also talked about another important matter.
"Speaking of which, what should we do with Ying and I's temporary residence permit?" Kong looked at Serethil and asked curiously.
"Well..." Sereshil thought for a moment and shook her head gently, "I don't know either."
"In the East Region, different countries and ancient cities have different ways of handling things. I don't need to apply for a so-called temporary residence permit in Guili Region, so I don't understand the process here."
"As for Furninha..."
She looked at Furninna who remained silent, thought for a moment, and finally decided not to continue.
Does Funina need to get a permit to go to other places now?
Today they dared to let Funina get a permit to enter, and tomorrow the Alliance of the Seas would gather their fleets and demons and attack directly here.
dong dong dong...
Just then, footsteps were heard, and a figure appeared at the end of the stairs. It was Yan You.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Yan You said to everyone with a hint of apology, "The captain was busy just now, so he was not at the front desk."
"I just talked to the captain about this matter. He will be able to come down in half an incense stick of time at most..."
huh~
Yan Hu looked at Ling Yu who suddenly appeared at the front desk in silence and swallowed the second half of his sentence.
Seeing Yan You suddenly stop talking, everyone followed his gaze and looked back at the front desk.
I saw a young man in fancy clothes sitting there at some point.
"Hello." Ling Yu nodded slightly to everyone, then looked at Ceresil... After passing her, he looked at Funina.
A hint of helplessness flashed across his eyes, and he stood up and bowed to Funina.
"The patrol envoy, codenamed Tianshuxing, Lingyu, greets Her Royal Highness the Princess."
The Patrolman is directly under the incarnation of the World Tree, Yggdrasil, and broke away from the Alliance of the Seas very early on.
But in essence, the Patrol Envoy is actually subordinate to the Great Supreme who rules over all the seas...
After all, who in this world doesn't know that the current incarnation of the World Tree, Yggdrasil, was created by the Great Supreme of the Seas himself?
Therefore, it is necessary to greet Furninna when meeting her.
"...No need, absolutely no need!" Fu Nina seemed to have just reacted. After being stunned for a few seconds, she waved her hand at Ling Yu and then explained:
"This time I came out as a traveler to visit the continent of Teyvat."
"And these people happen to be my companions on this journey."
Having said that, she stretched out her little hand and pointed at Paimeng, Ying, and Kong.
"Then Miss Cerehil..." Ling Yu looked at the daughter of the king of the Alliance of the Seas, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Cerethil is just a temporary travel companion. After we finish this trip to the Eastern Region, we will part ways with her." Fininna continued to explain.
"I see..." Ling Yu nodded, and then asked again: "Then did Her Highness Funina come here this time to apply for relevant documents for your three travel companions?"
"Yes." Furninna nodded her head.
"Since Her Highness Funina brought this person... then there is no need to apply for documents." Ling Yu thought for a moment and took out a token from his pocket. "This is a pass that can be used in the Eastern Region."
"Your Highness, please pass it on to your three traveling companions."
After saying that, he presented the token in his hand to Funina.
When Fu Nina heard Ling Yu say this, she turned her gaze to the token in the other's hand.
The material of this token is like the deep night sky, with twinkling stars in the darkness, as if endless stars in the universe are inlaid in it.
The edges are wavy in shape, like the waves of the sea, rising and falling, giving people a sense of agility and grandeur.
On the front of the token is a vast map of the starry sky, with bright stars densely arranged in the vast sky.
On the back is a rough sea with rolling waves hitting the rocks on the shore, splashing white waves.
On the top, there is a blue gem, like the eye of the sea, deep and bright. Around the gem, there is a circle of blue lines.
[Patrol Region: Vast Sea and Starry Sky Order]
This is a token that represents the will of the Alliance of All Seas, or the will of the Great Supreme that governs All Seas.
Anyone holding this token can travel freely throughout the continent of Teyvat and hunt demons.
"This token..." Finina frowned slightly, and when she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Ling Yu's next sentence.
"Just before I came to see you, Lord Yggdrasil sent this token to me and asked me to pass on something to you." Ling Yu said respectfully.
"That is, after you accept this token, remember to contact the adults again."
"My Lord, I have something important to discuss with you."
"Oh, I see..." Furninna was a little confused, but still took the token.
Seeing that Funina took the token, Ling Yu breathed a sigh of relief and disappeared from the spot. It seemed that he had something important to do.
Seeing Ling Yu disappear on the spot, the others looked at each other in bewilderment, and Yan You was the first to speak:
"Your Highness Fininna, Miss Ceresil, and the other three... um... it seems that you all want to discuss something. Fortunately, the reception room is currently empty."
"Thank you for your help." Funina nodded slightly.
"It's not a problem." Yan You smiled and took a few people to the meeting room of Tianren Building.
After bringing several people into the conference room, he closed the door and turned around to leave.
Just at this moment, Ling Yu reappeared, and arrogantly stuffed a warrant into Yan You's arms, then disappeared from Yan You's sight again, leaving a word behind.
"I have something important to deal with. You will be the temporary supervisor of Tianrentai."
Ling Yu is very busy now. The silly netizen he just arranged to meet online responded to him.
