Genshin Impact: Without the Eye of God, the Original Man Witnesses the Original

Came to the registration office of Inazuma's inspection station.

"Hello, please tell us your identities and purpose of coming to the island. Oh, Mr. Thomas, it's not necessary." The woman in charge of registration looked at Jiang Yi, Ying and Paimeng, three completely unfamiliar faces.

Paimon lowered his head and scratched it. How should he respond?

"What's wrong? Could you please tell me the detailed information about the three of you and whether there is any accompanying cargo..." said the woman.

Ying was silent for a moment: "Let's do... wine and mineral business."

"Really? Currently, only merchants from the 'International Chamber of Commerce' are allowed to conduct this kind of import and export business. Do you three have business licenses from the Chamber of Commerce?" the woman asked.

"Ah, I, we..." Paimon started to panic.

Jiang Yi looked at the sun in the sky. It was almost night.

He turned sideways and bowed to Thomas: "The three of us are new to your place, and we don't know much about Inazuma's situation. We should ask Mr. Thomas for help!"

Although they could use magic to hypnotize the woman to make her forge the truth, this local boss of Inazuma was right beside them, and it was obvious that he came prepared to greet them. Being in Inazuma, in order to achieve the goal of meeting General Raiden in person, they would sooner or later be drawn into Inazuma's vortex.

There is nothing wrong with accepting favors from others and probing others.

After all, his foundation in Teyvat was still a little weak. Apart from his martial arts and magic, it was difficult for him to take care of these minor matters.

However, he was already prepared.

Now that Lingshan Sect has fallen into our hands, we will vigorously develop Lingshan Sect and expand our presence across the world. When the relevant forces spread across the seven countries, there will be someone to help arrange all the tedious matters.

Why do you have to forge your identity and write the residence documents yourself? Why ask others for help?

"Haha, I wanted to see how you guys were going to deal with it, but since Mr. Jiang Yi said so..." Thomas reached out and said, "Here are the documents for the three of you to go to the island, please take a look."

The woman checked it and said, "...Yes, that's how it is. There is nothing wrong with the document. Welcome to the island."

Paimon breathed a sigh of relief, put his hands on his hips and said to Thomas, "Hey! You're all ready, so just take it out early!"

"Sorry, sorry." Thomas apologized straightforwardly even though he had done nothing wrong when Paimon questioned him.

Ying withdrew her speechless gaze.

"So where are we going next?" Paimon asked.

"Yuanguo Prison." Thomas said a name, "This is just to check the permission to land on the island. If you want to stay on the outlying island, you have to go to Yuanguo Prison to handle the residence procedures."

Jiang Yi and Ying looked at each other. Compared to Mondstadt and Liyue, Inazuma was really troublesome.

"Hmm...it's really strict." Paimeng felt tired.

"After all, in Inazuma, foreigners are called 'foreigners'," Thomas explained. "As the name suggests, foreigners are not that welcome under the lockdown. This is true even on the outlying islands where there are 'foreigner settlements'."

Jiang Yi smelled the fragrance in the air and was lost in thought.

What to eat tonight when you come to Inazuma?

Ying's eyes were firm: "There is nothing we can do even if we are not welcomed... We still have to move forward on our journey."

"Haha, I like your awareness." Thomas invited, "Let's go, the three of you. Let's go to the Far Country Supervisory Office."

After turning several turns and walking up the stairs, you will reach a higher place.

Thomas was very conscious of being a guide and continued, "Most of these rules were established by the long-time administrator of the outlying islands - the 'Kanjo Bugyo'."

"Kanjo Bugyo...we heard from Wan...a friend." Paimon almost managed to keep his voice down and didn't mention Manye in this place where there were Inazuma soldiers patrolling around.

"Really? It seems you know something about Inazuma!" Thomas said, "Kanjo Bugyo is one of the three Inazuma Bugyos, and is mainly responsible for earning and managing the country's wealth."

"It's not a good reputation." Ying said lightly.

On the Beidou ship, many people talked about the bad reputation of Kanjo Bugyo.

"Haha!" Thomas laughed.

Everyone came to Yuanguo Prison.

"Have you completed the procedures for landing on the island? Do you need to go through the procedures for staying on the island? The inspector of Yuanguo Prison is a woman.

Ying nodded.

"Okay, please pay the handling fee, three million Mora." The woman said with a smile.

When Ying and Paimeng heard the price, they were shocked and said in surprise, "Three million! Three million just to complete the formalities?"

The woman held up her finger and said, "Well, one million per person, so it's three million. Don't worry, I didn't make a mistake."

Paimon was stunned: "It's not a question of whether it's wrong or not..."

"Three hundred Moras, do it for us." Jiang Yi's eyes became dreamy and blurry. He practiced hard day and night just to break free from unreasonable rules.

It would be fine if the previous procedures complied with the management regulations, but there is no need for Thomas to help with this extortion.

"I'll give you ten minutes." He ordered with mental suggestion.

"Okay...ok." The woman smiled and began to process the procedures for the three people.

"Three...three hundred Mora." Paimon was shocked again. "From three million to three hundred. Jiang Yi, how could she accept your conditions? Is there something wrong with the Inazuma people's concept of money?"

Ying groaned and said, "His view on money is so bad that it reminds me of someone I know..."

"No! Did you...use mental suggestion to hypnotize me..." She suddenly realized.

"Ah!" Paimon also thought of it, "This... this is not good!"

"Alas!" Jiang Yi sighed in disappointment, "Can't it be because I'm handsome, everyone loves me, and flowers bloom when I see them? The other party is convinced by my appearance?"

"Uh--" Ying and Paimon looked at each other at the same time, as if to say, "Are you kidding me?"

“Why don’t you believe it…” Jiang Yi shook his head. After several transformations, he actually had extraordinary charm, but he had always restrained it.

Otherwise, all things would have a desire to reproduce when they saw him, would risk their lives for him, would obey his words, and would develop an inexplicable affection for him.

This is part of the human body's heaven and earth system.

Because it is too taboo, he has always disdained it.

"Okay! It's really hypnotic this time," he admitted.

"Mr. Jiang Yi's behavior is really unexpected." Thomas did not hide the conversation between the three people. He said with caution and shock.

"Should we obey unreasonable rules?" Jiang Yi's eyes penetrated people's hearts. "This 'handling fee' itself is a private item! It is used to exploit foreign businessmen, especially those who are honest and submissive."

"For the supervisors of Yuanguo Prison, no matter how much handling fee is paid, it will go directly into their pockets. It's just a matter of how much they make."

"If I didn't have any local friends and no power, I would be in a terrible situation here. But now, I have the power to easily solve everything, why not use it?"

"Reasonable rules are rules, unreasonable rules are just waste paper."

"Power is restrained by morality and released by the injustice in the heart. This is my principle."

"They are not yet qualified to allow me to use my wisdom."

Thomas seemed to truly understand what kind of person the legendary Young Master Jiang Yi was.

I feel it has more meaning...

I didn’t ask him how he knew the truth about the fee, but instead said, “Some unreasonable things really shouldn’t be followed.”

He felt that his purpose was also seen through.

A terrifying, powerful, stranger.

And this mental suggestion...he began to have some doubts.

"It's done, everyone." The inspector from Yuanguo Prison came over and announced.

"Then let's go!" Jiang Yi glanced at the woman, smiled, then turned and left.

Seeing that the residence procedures had been completed successfully, Ying and Paimeng no longer worried about what means Jiang Yi would use.

"You're just bullying foreigners...you deserve it now that you've met Jiang Yi!" Paimeng cursed.

Thomas suddenly said, "However, most people in the world are powerless. Being a stranger in a foreign land, most people have no good way to deal with unreasonable rules in the current situation of Inazuma's isolation."

"Foreign businessmen, for example, the best they can do is to 'band together for warmth'."

"And this... is also the origin of the 'International Chamber of Commerce' on the outlying island."

Ying thought for a moment and said, "It's the force that the other party mentioned when we registered."

Paimon asked, "Is this a chamber of commerce established by foreigners themselves?"

"That's right. In addition to making profits, the Chamber of Commerce also regulates, organizes, and assists the survival of foreigners in Inazuma," Thomas said. "It can be said that it is a Chamber of Commerce that studies both the way of business and the way of survival."

"What if we want to meet General Lei Dian?" Ying asked.

Thomas stopped and said, "Is this the purpose of your trip? I see. Considering your status, this is indeed a 'grand' goal. After all, General Lei Dian is the most noble and honorable being, a god that all living beings can only look up to."

Jiang Yi looked at Inazuma's night scene and listened to Inazuma's suppressed wind.

Thomas' intelligence did not contain any information that they had seen the God of Wind and the God of Rock. From his perspective, this statement was indeed correct.

Paimon can sense the difference between Inazuma and Mondstadt and Liyue: "For foreigners in Inazuma, it's already difficult just to survive... The International Chamber of Commerce seems to have no power to help us at all."

Ying nodded: "Even so... we have to find a way!"

It would be best to meet the gods in a proper manner. After all, she didn't want to anger the gods.

Thomas looked at the three people and said, "Perhaps, encounters in this world are always unpredictable. You might bump into General Lei Dian by chance one afternoon when you have had enough wine and food..."

Paimon curled his lips. The domineering Thor who pursues eternity is not a singer who does not do his job, nor is he Zhongli who wanders around the world leisurely.

"How low is the probability of something like what you said..."

It is hard to imagine that General Raiden, who has been staying in the castle tower since launching the "Eye Hunting Order", would go out.

"Well, I can tell you frankly that I have a way to introduce you to General Lei Dian." Thomas said.

Paimon became excited: "Really? The local tyrants on the outlying islands actually have this kind of connections!"

Ying also has expectations.

Jiang Yi said: "Is it safe?"

Thomas was stunned: "Hmm... it should be safe! Haha, if we meet General Raiden, we can mobilize all resources and find a way. But before that... connections are also a very expensive business. Of course, the business I'm talking about doesn't mean that you have to pay Mora."

He looked at Jiang Yi. Among the three people, the one who wanted to see General Lei Dian the most seemed to be the girl named Ying, and the man seemed to have come here to protect the girl.

"It should be said that no one has to pay any price. It's just... if you want to get what you want, you have to help solve some of the troubles of others first." He said, "Find a way to make everyone happy, this is my principle of doing things."

Thomas believed that with mental suggestion, even if Jiang Yi did not follow his path, he would still have a chance to clear the way and meet the general. But he didn't know how Jiang Yi would face the consequences if the matter was exposed and discovered by the general.

The other party asked whether this road was safe, and it was obvious that he had prepared unsafe means.

Will he prepare for both situations?

On the other side, after hearing what Thomas said, Paimon understood.

Her experience with Mondstadt and Liyue’s many commissions made her understand immediately: “You are just trying to be a middleman to earn favors!”

"No wonder he became a local boss." Ying said helplessly, "Come on, it's time to do the mission, right?"

After all, Inazuma is one of the seven countries and has its own foundation. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, so she doesn't want to take any risks.

"Eh... why do I feel like I've suddenly become a villain in your eyes?" Thomas looked at Ying and Paimon's eyes and said, "Forget it, never mind. The situation is like this..."

He said simply, "As I said before, members of the International Chamber of Commerce have been in a difficult situation. And recently...some situations seem to be getting worse."

"Just go and see how you can help."

"The Chamber of Commerce president's name is Kurisu, and he's a good friend of mine."

"I'll wait for you here."

……

Ying and Paimeng frowned for a moment and followed Jiang Yi to the side.

When Thomas was no longer visible, Ying asked, "Jiang Yi, what do you think of this local tyrant?"

"A test and a temptation." Jiang Yi looked at the shops around him, "Let's go have dinner first! Let's taste Inazuma's delicacies. We'll go over later..."
