Genshin Impact: Can’t the executive just give up?

Chapter 144: Rhine holds the power of heaven, the prince embraces the emperor

The lightning spear stabbed at Rhine, but was still blocked by the golden barrier.

Rhine frowned slightly. Tartaglia, who could control the element of thunder, moved too quickly. All his movements were completed in an instant. Even for Rhine, it would be difficult to defeat him if he only used alchemical power.

But he doesn't need to defeat Tartaglia.

Rhine no longer focused on defense, and the golden barrier was broken.

He left the spot in an instant and barely avoided Tartaglia's lightning spear.

"The executive officer 'Young Master' who is famous for his fighting skills is not easy to deal with after all." Rhine thought to himself.

He moved away from Tartaglia, and with a thought, several golden swords appeared from behind him, pointing directly at Tartaglia.

The golden sword light shot out, blocking Tartaglia's way.

Tartaglia flashed, but did not intend to avoid Rhine's attack. Instead, he gathered strength again and rushed towards Rhine.

Rhine was somewhat surprised by Tartaglia's reckless fighting style: "Interesting, you didn't dodge but attacked me instead?"

"In that case."

Rhine opened his hands, his thoughts spread around like ripples, and golden swords condensed from behind him, illuminating the background behind him into a dazzling gold.

"go with!"

The long swords burst out at the same time, and the light filled the already small house and collided with Tartaglia.

For a moment, golden light and purple thunder intertwined with each other, and the overflowing energy destroyed the surrounding scenery. The tea table collapsed, porcelain pieces flew, and the tea that should have exuded a long-lasting fragrance had already turned into steam.

Bang!

Although Ningguang and Zhongli were well protected by Rhine, he didn't care about the property of the General Affairs Department.

The roof was easily blown off, and even though the materials used in the construction of the General Affairs Department were quite good, they were all turned into debris in the battle between the two executive officers.

"Tsk, this is so frustrating!" Tartaglia gritted his teeth.

He found his fighting spirit again and wanted to put everything aside to fight the masked man in front of him.

But due to his status, he cannot act recklessly.

“Right now, the most important thing is to rescue Mr. Zhongli. Humph, the Seven Stars are left alone…” Tartaglia caught a glimpse of Ningguang from the corner of his eye.

Although Ningguang is a seven-star hero, her combat power is not outstanding.

As Tartaglia thought so, his body turned into lightning again, and he held the lightning spear in his hand and aimed it directly at Ningguang's face.

Ningguang didn't have much protection on her body. In the aftermath of the previous battle, a lot of power had been washed away from the shield that Rhine had put on her body. It only took one more blow from Tartaglia to break it.

"You really dare to kill Ningguang?" Rhine understood Tartaglia's attack intention and rushed towards Ningguang in an instant.

Under the control of "Heaven's Principle", his speed is not slower than Tartaglia at all.

"This..." The battle happened so fast that Ningguang had no time to think before she found that the attacker's lightning spear was crackling and enlarged in front of her eyes.

"You really don't take me seriously!"

A familiar voice sounded in Ningguang's ears. Although it was full of contempt, it made her feel at ease.

A golden barrier instantly formed in front of her. At the same time, Rhine flashed to Ningguang's side and put his arm around her waist. The powerful force caused Ningguang to fall on his chest, and her body exploded backwards and floated into the sky.

In just a moment, the golden barrier was shattered, and Tartaglia's lightning spear penetrated the protection, but could no longer touch Ningguang in the distance.

"Hmph, you fell into my trap..." Under her scarf, a smile appeared on Tartaglia's lips.

He turned his body diagonally backward and threw the lightning spear towards Zhongli.

The lightning struck the shield around Zhongli and exploded violently, easily breaking the protection imposed by Rhine.

Tartaglia came in front of Zhongli in an instant. Given the distance between the masked man and him, there was no way he could stop him.

"Mr. Zhongli, it's me, let's go!" Tartaglia revealed his true voice, put his arms around Zhongli's waist, and took Zhongli away in the same way that Rhine held Ningguang.

"Looking forward to our next battle..." Tartaglia stared at Rhine, thinking in his heart, but without any hesitation, his body turned into lightning and left with Zhongli.

"Hmph, you've fallen into my trap..." Rhine hugged Ningguang, looked at the lightning flashing in the air, and laughed in his heart.

But he still frowned on the surface, his eyes solemn: "With a body as strong as thunder and a spirit as fierce as a beast, Liyue is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

Ningguang also turned her head to look in the direction where Tartaglia left. She really didn't know that there was such a powerful user of the Thunder Elemental God's Eye in Liyue.

In terms of speed, no element can be faster than thunder. Ningguang also knew that Lai Yin could not catch up with that person, so she did not force him. She just felt a little regretful: "What a pity, the clue was lost."

"I'm sorry, I underestimated you." Rhine lowered his head and said to Ningguang with a hint of apology.

"Mr. Bai, don't say that. If it weren't for you, I might have fallen victim to that man's murder." Ningguang shook her head. The battle just now happened too quickly, and until the end, it was just a fight of a few moves.

But the lightning gun that enlarged in front of her eyes was deeply imprinted in Ningguang's mind.

Such a battlefield is truly thrilling and is not something Ningguang should face.

Even though she was held in Rhine's arms, she still felt frightened.

“Mr. Bai’s chest is very warm, but please put me down first.” Ningguang looked up and said to Rhine.

Being hugged like this could indeed quickly calm Ningguang's panic, but she would not be greedy for it.

"Ah."

Rhine put Ningguang down and looked around the room that was destroyed by the battle.

Tartaglia's goal this time is to save people, not to fight. He doesn't want to attract too much attention, so he naturally won't use all his strength. Rhine also intends to stop.

Otherwise, with the executive officer's evil eye and creation-level alchemy, they could easily raze the General Affairs Department headquarters to the ground.

"It's just a pity that the tea is not served during the full moon. What a waste of food." Rhine was still thinking about the cake he had eaten a few minutes ago.

He didn't know much about tea, but the pastry tasted really good. It was a pity that it was turned into powder by the battle.

"Lord Ningguang, I'm late."

After Ningguang left Rhine's arms and stood firmly on the ground, Ganyu and a group of General Affairs Department staff finally arrived.

Needless to say, the people from the General Affairs Department were all mortals, and after seeing the massive fight just now, they did not dare to approach easily, and had to wait until the battle was over before coming over.

As for Ganyu...

"Ms. Ningguang, as soon as I noticed the movement of the General Affairs Department, I rushed over immediately, but I was stopped by many ice cones on the way, which delayed me."

Ganyu was working at the time. After hearing the noise, she hurried over to check it out. However, she was attacked by many ice cones that came from nowhere on the way, which made her late. Otherwise, she should have been able to participate in the battle just now.
