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

Of course, Rhine was teasing Ningguang.

Liyue Harbor is quite a distance away from the Chasm, and it would be too boring if we didn't have some fun.

Generally speaking, Rhine's favorite person to make fun of is Rosalin. Although she is as prone to getting angry as a neurotic cat, Rhine can quickly make Rosalin docile by just petting the cat's fur.

The second is Ye Lan. However, ever since the last time he met Ye Lan at night, Rhine always felt that Ye Lan was a little strange.

It’s not that Ye Lan is abnormal, it’s just that her eyes always have a hint of aggression. It was like this before, and after hugging Rhine, the feeling was particularly strong, as if Rhine saw a delicate pastry.

That kind of... treating the other person as prey or food, or taking them as your own, or, uh, anyway, it's very strange.

Of course, in addition to these, a certain sunset street urchin who likes to drink tea and listen to books is also within Rhine's consideration.

However, Zhongli is a little special. After all, his true form is a wise god. If Rhine does not plan carefully, he will easily see through the trick. Moreover, he has already tricked him once, so he also wants Master Zhong to slow down. After all, you can't fleece the wool from one person.

"Tsk, I'm so kind..."

Rhine sat opposite Ningguang, and during the basically smooth journey, he listened to her explaining the rules of Go to him in a soft voice like a teacher.

Rhine naturally understood the rules. Although his way of playing chess was wrong, he was still following the rules. Otherwise, Ningguang would have discovered the abnormality in the game long ago.

Ningguang explained to Rhine slowly for a long time, but she felt that the speed of the carriage was slowing down little by little.

"Whoa!" Ningguang frowned slightly as he listened to the driver's instructions in front.

She opened the curtains and looked ahead, only to find that the road ahead was in a mess.

"Lady Ningguang, there seems to have been a melee among the Hilichurls ahead." A rough female voice was heard, telling Ningguang about the road conditions ahead.

"Okay, I understand. Let's take another route." Ningguang lowered the curtain.

She also noticed that the road seemed to have been re-turned, with broken tree trunks and rubble scattered all over it.

Some clues can still be found in such scenes, such as fragments of the Hillichul masks and the rock armor that fell off the Hillichul Rock Helmet King. Although there are no corpses, many clues can still be seen.

“The nearest way is to go north and around Lingju Pass. Although the road there is not wide, it is wide enough for carriages to pass.” Ningguang was familiar with most of the roads in Liyue and knew which way they should go.

Rhine nodded.

He was also very familiar with the road conditions in Liyue, and even the current destruction was caused by him personally.

The "Heavenly Principle" material that Rhine had placed on the roadside when he went to the Layered Abyss last time was not just a simple teleportation point. It could act according to his instructions as long as he thought about it.

Such a scene could easily be created by simply resurfacing the pavement and decorating it with items taken from the nearby Hillock tribe.

But Ningguang explained to Lai Yin: "It is common for the Hillock tribes to fight each other. They are probably expanding too fast recently, so they set up the battlefield on the main road. We can let the Thousand Rocks Army clean up the surrounding tribes later."

Neither of them paid attention to the incident on the road and continued to talk about Go.

At Lingju Pass, crows were circling in the sky, monitoring everything on the ground.

Beneath it was a small secret base of the Fatui, with several advance team members on duty.

"The Lady said that we should stay here for three days and then leave after we see the Executioner. This is a really easy job."

An obese Fatui was carrying a light blue backpack and holding a gun barrel that was thicker than a normal person's arm, staring at the sky with boredom.

"The mission has not been completed yet. We must not think too highly of ourselves at this moment." Another Fatui leaned aside, holding a musket.

"Focus on your work and don't worry about anything else." The strong Fatui wearing purple-black armor crossed his arms and spoke in a serious tone.

"Hey, boss, look at that bird in the sky. Is it staring at us?" The Ice Gun Heavy Guard pointed to the sky, where a crow was circling.

"Stop being suspicious, watch me shoot it down!" The musket guerrilla soldier didn't care at all, raised the spear in his hand and pointed the muzzle at the crow.

"boom!"

The fire element's bullet was fired at an extremely fast speed and flew to the crow in the blink of an eye, but the crow made a strange move and turned at an almost sharp angle to avoid the bullet's trajectory.

"Ha, you can even dodge this?" The musket guerrilla soldier widened his eyes.

"You must be too weak and your hands are shaking." The Bingqiang heavy guard did not observe the crow and quarreled with his colleague as usual.

"I'm strong...wait, that bird is flying towards us, uh!"

The shape of the crow magnified in the eyes of the musket guerrilla soldier, and it rushed in front of him at a speed several points faster than a bullet, scaring him.

The crow hovered in front of the people, its body scattered into countless small black cubes, and then gathered into a human shape again.

"Oh my god! Oh no, strange, strange... Lord "heretic"?!" Several people stared at the humanoid creature in front of them with wide eyes.

Wearing a cloak, an airtight mask on his face, and that iconic black cube, who else could it be but their Lord Executive?

"I actually dared to attack the executive officer!" The sudden cold sweat soaked the clothes of the musket guerrilla soldier.

He, an ordinary soldier, actually dared to point his gun at the executive officer?

Will the executive officer leave his body intact?

"Relax, soldier." A hoarse and low voice came from inside the mask, making them feel the temperature around them drop a few degrees.

"Tell me what the Lady has assigned you."

The Fatui quickly reported: "Report to the commander, we are under the order of the Lady to guard this device and wait for the arrival of the Executor!"

They pointed to the copper pot device in the tent: "The lady said that there is a beast sealed inside, and the beast can be released by pressing the switch."

Rhine looked at the copper pot in the tent. It had a distinct winter industrial style, but there were a few Liyue talismans pasted on it, which seemed a bit out of place.

Several Fatui continued to answer, "We will follow the instructions and place some red talisman paper on the nearby roads. As long as we open the jar at the right time, the beast inside will automatically run there, and then we can leave."

Then they asked cautiously, "Sir, what is the right time? The Lady didn't tell us."

Rhine glanced at them and said, "Wait for my order."

"Yes!" x3

On Ningguang's carriage.

"Mr. Bai, are you not paying attention to me again?" Ningguang looked at Rhine with a dull look in his eyes, his fair and rosy cheeks puffed up slightly.
