Genshin Impact: What? The one we need to save is Fukaros

In the Jade Pavilion of Liyue, Beidou was in a room decorated with both luxury and elegance.

In the center of the room is a large and exquisite table with a chessboard on it. The black and white chess pieces are like soldiers on the battlefield, quietly waiting for the next instruction.

Sitting opposite Beidou was a young woman with an elegant and graceful temperament.

Her long silver hair was as smooth as silk and gleamed like moonlight. She was wearing a tight yellow cheongsam, which perfectly outlined her slim and mature figure.

This woman is Ningguang, the famous Tianquan Star of Liyue. She is not only the most powerful person in Liyue, but also the richest person in the local area.

Her existence is like the bright starlight, illuminating the entire Liyue.

"It seems that you are going to lose this game of chess." Beidou gently placed a black piece on the chessboard with a smug smile on his face.

Ningguang doesn't care about winning or losing. She is willing to keep losing as long as it can make Beidou on the opposite side feel a little happy.

"Beidou, are you leaving for Fude Port this afternoon?" She asked softly, holding a white piece lightly.

Beidou nodded affirmatively, "The cargo has been loaded, it's time to head to Fude Port."

After gently placing the white piece on the chessboard, Ningguang continued to ask: "What do you think about the severance of diplomatic relations between Fontaine and the Kingdom of Winter?"

Beidou frowned and replied, “I think Fontaine’s approach is very decisive.

But in Liyue, the situation is not satisfactory. Keqing is the only one who supports you and agrees to list the Fatui as an extreme terrorist organization."

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone that was difficult to conceal.

Talking about this, Ningguang couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

The reason why the other seven stars objected was mainly because they firmly believed that such important decisions should be made by the Emperor of Rock.

Although Ningguang was unwilling to accept this reason, she found it difficult to refute it.

Then, she changed the subject. "I've found some clues about the matter you asked me to investigate. The reason behind Ide's construction of Fude Port seems to be closely related to a doomsday prophecy circulating in Fontaine."

Beidou pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you talking about the prophecy that everyone will dissolve in water?"

Ningguang nodded. "Yes, if my guess is correct, when the prophecy comes true, Fude Port will be the home of the Fontaine people."

After listening to this, Beidou was deeply touched, "Ide's wisdom and courage are really admirable."

Ningguang also agreed, "In addition to his wisdom and courage, his kindness and justice are even more admirable."

Beidou picked up a black piece and dropped it, “However, for a businessman like you, being able to make you money is probably the most important reason why you admire him.

Ningguang smiled. "That's true, business is business. A single trade with Fude Port can earn a stable income of about 10 million Mora. How can we not admire it?"

She didn't place any more chess pieces because the game was already lost.

In other words, in the chess game with Beidou, she was willing to be a loser as long as she could be with him.

.................................................. ...

The afternoon sun shines on the sea of ​​Liyue Harbor, and the waves sparkle like countless diamonds jumping.

Seagulls fly freely in the blue sky, making cheerful calls.

Beidou walked on the dock with steady steps. She found that where the Southern Cross was docked, there was a girl standing there quietly, in sharp contrast to the hustle and bustle around her.

She was dressed in a pure white winter robe and an exquisite hollow white silk eye mask. Her eyes were lightly closed, and she looked like the purest elf between heaven and earth, giving people a transcendental feeling.

"Excuse me, can you take me to Fude Port?" The girl's voice was clear and pleasant, as pure as a stream in the valley.

From the girl's clothes and temperament, Beidou keenly realized that she was no ordinary person. She was likely a high-ranking official of the Kingdom of Winter, or even one of the mysterious and powerful Fatui executives.

Beidou thought for a moment, then said solemnly: "Of course, but you must buy a ticket. This is our rule."

The girl thought for a moment, and a black Northland Bank card appeared in her hand. "Can this be used as payment?"

Beidou's eyes flashed with surprise, "Are you sure you want to use this to pay for the boat ticket?"

A hint of confusion appeared on the girl's face. "Is this not okay?"

"Of course!" Beidou responded quickly.

The girl then handed the bank card to Beidou.

Afterwards, the two boarded the Southern Cross together.

Under the warm sunshine, the Southern Cross set sail and headed towards Port Fude.

The girl stood quietly on the deck at the bow, gazing into the distance, completely immersed in her own world.

Not long into the voyage, the Southern Cross entered dangerous seas filled with thunderstorms.

Beidou gripped his two-handed sword tightly, ready to face the upcoming thunder and lightning challenge.

However, surprisingly, the originally violent and ruthless thunder and lightning actually shrank back, as if there was something on the ship that made them feel afraid.

In this way, the Southern Cross passed through the thunderstorm area safely.

The mysterious girl always maintained her peaceful posture, and everything around her had nothing to do with her.

More than an hour later, the Southern Cross successfully docked at the pier of Port Fude.

The girl's figure had disappeared from the bow, as if she had never appeared.

...................................

In the owner's office of the West Factory Office Building, Lin Yide sat at his desk, feeling very happy.

For killing the slice of Dotorre before, the system generously rewarded him with 6400 experience points.

He couldn't help but fall into a beautiful reverie. If he killed all of Dotorre's slices, perhaps the rewarded experience points could directly activate his six lives.

When the time comes, once the demon form is activated, the Star-Eating Whale and the "Three-Body Man" Silkok will be finished if I don't deal with them.

When Lin Yide looked closely at the face of the person who came, he felt a little surprised.

He originally thought that the negotiator from the Fatui would be Alechino, but the one who appeared before him was Columbia, the third-ranking Fatui executive officer.

She stood there, staring at him quietly, for a long time without saying anything.

Lin Yide felt a little uncomfortable with her prolonged gaze, so he took the initiative to break the silence: "Columbia, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Columbia tilted her head slightly, as if thinking about something, and then she replied calmly: "I came to negotiate with you."

"Oh?" Lin Yide raised his eyebrows slightly, leaned forward, and folded his hands on the table. "Then, in order to show sincerity, what kind of concessions are the Fatui willing to make?"

"Money, land, and all rights and interests in Inazuma." Columbia listed all the concessions that the Fatui could make in one breath.

Lin Yide was a little surprised that the usually strong Fatui could make such a big concession. "Tell me more specifically, how much money, and where the land is."

Hearing this, Columbia subconsciously reached into her pocket, ready to take out the bank card that Pantalone gave her.

However, after groping in her pocket for a while, her hand suddenly stopped.

Her expression changed slightly, and she suddenly remembered something important.

Only then did she realize that the bank card that she had originally intended to use to show the Fatui's sincerity had already been used by her to pay for the boat ticket.

"Uh," Columbia raised her head somewhat awkwardly and looked at Lin Yide, "The money...is gone."

Her voice grew quieter and quieter, until it was almost a murmur.

Love till winter Columbia
