Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 923: Mavica, the genius pretending to be confused

The moment Shao Yun walked out of the room, he suddenly found that Mavica was leaning against the wall next to the door.

At this moment, Mavica obviously had not had time to take a shower, and her body exuded a faint salty scent of sweat.

Mavica heard exactly what happened in the room. When she saw Shao Yun walking out of the room with an unhappy look on his face, she jokingly said:

"Looking at your expression, I guess the conversation between you two was not very pleasant. Didn't you reach any consensus in the end?"

Shao Yun looked at Mavica who was eavesdropping outside the door and said, "You are also learning from Sinoning, Xitelali and Malani to listen to the wall."

Seeing this, Mavica shrugged her shoulders and explained with a helpless expression, "Ah, I'm just worried that the Rock God's followers will harm you, so..."

Shao Yun looked at Mavica's innocent look and couldn't help but smile. This was a really good excuse...

But forget it, since she can guard the gate for me here, I'll just consider it as her reward...

"Okay, thank you for guarding the gate for me," Shao Yun said with a smile, "But if the news of the God of Fire guarding the gate gets out, I'm afraid most people won't believe it..."

Putting aside the matter of guarding the gate, Mavica was a little curious at this time why Shao Yun did not agree to Xiao's proposal.

"By the way, why don't you accept Xiao's suggestion?"

Shao Yun smiled slightly and explained: "In fact, the principle is very simple, one thing for each thing."

"The original agreement was that I helped Liyue overcome the crisis and Zhongli saved my wife and children, but he didn't do it. It's normal to be punished."

Mavica listened to Shao Yun's inflexible ideas, her eyes rolled around, thinking about something.

After a while, she took the initiative to suggest: "Can I give you a little advice?"

Seeing that Mavica had a suggestion, Shao Yun said calmly, "Of course, if you have any good ideas, just tell me."

Seeing this, Mavica raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile.

She deliberately put her hands behind her back, pretending to be thinking deeply, and then answered slowly:

"First of all, I understand very well that I cannot interfere too much with your decision. And to be honest, I really want to slap Wendy in the face. After all, what he did really made me angry. But..."

Having said this, Mavica paused for a moment, as if she was choosing her words.

Seeing this, Shao Yun hurriedly asked, "But what? Tell me now!"

Mavica took a deep breath and continued, "But, I personally think that every wrong has its perpetrator. Sometimes, you don't need to be so aggressive towards those non-related people who have nothing to do with the matter itself..."

After hearing what Mavica said, Shao Yun couldn't help but touch his chin.

"what do you mean……"

Shao Yun was about to ask Mavica further about her thoughts when she suddenly interrupted him.

"Oh, I don't mean anything special! I'm just making a suggestion. The final decision is still up to you."

Mavica quickly raised her hands and pretended to be innocent, as if the words she had just said were said by another self.

Then, Mavica gave another big tactical yawn and rubbed her eyes hard, pretending to be very sleepy.

"Ah~ I'm so sleepy. I'm going to go back and take a shower and go to bed. I stink of sweat all over. See you tomorrow!"

After saying that, Mavica slid away.

Shao Yun watched as Mavica used the excuse of taking a shower and sleeping to leave, and he was too embarrassed to call her.

"Mavica, you are such a genius at playing dumb."

……

In the second half of the night, Mondstadt was completely silent and serene.

The snowstorm that had covered Mond for more than two months finally stopped at this moment.

The snow on the ground reflected the light of the moon, and a silver-like glow lingered over the land of Mondstadt.

In the Wolf Territory, the wolves slowly awakened from their slumber under the protection of the remaining soul of the king wolf "Andrius".

It is no exaggeration to say that without the protection of "Andrius", the wolf pack in the Wolf Territory would find it difficult to survive in such a harsh environment.

Without animals, all would starve to death.

The wolves all looked up at the round moon in the sky and simultaneously let out low and long wolf howls.

The sound echoed in the silent night sky, as if celebrating Mond's survival of this crisis.

The "wolf boy" Lei Ze was brought here by Lisa to rest a few days before the blizzard swept Mondstadt.

He lay quietly in the room Lisa had prepared for him, sleeping soundly and completely unaware of the changes in the outside world.

Qin stood in front of the window of her office, gently pushed it open, and a biting cold air blew in her face.

Along with this cold air, streams of white mist also came in through the window gaps.

Although the temperature outside was still very low, Qin was in an exceptionally happy mood.

She looked at the bright moon and a relieved smile appeared on her face. "The snowstorm has really disappeared..."

Diluk stood behind Qin, looking at the moonlight outside the window that he hadn't seen for a long time, with a pensive expression on his face.

After a while, he murmured to himself: "It seems that what Ms. Alice said is true..."

……

Although Mond's blizzard was paused at this moment, Diluk groaned.

"Hmm..." Although the murmur was slight, it caught Qin's attention.

She looked at Diluk, and saw that he usually had a cold expression on his face, but now he looked as if he was worried about something.

Qin couldn't help but ask with concern: "Mr. Diluk, what's wrong?"

Diluk shook his head slowly, regaining his usual calm expression, and then told Qin about his inner worries.

"Nothing. I'm just worried about my Morningside Winery. This blizzard has been going on for two months. The grapes used for wine must be ruined."

"Angel's Gift probably won't be open for business for the next quarter."

"Besides, the Abyss Cult may have left behind some Abyss filth during this period. If that is the case, it will be a very troublesome task to clean it up when the time comes."

Qin listened to Diluk's words and nodded in agreement.

Indeed, the Abyss Cult will definitely not let this go so easily...

Seeing this, Diluk was silent for a moment, then continued, "There is no point in saying more. Once this crisis is over... Jean, the Knights will be handed over to you."

Jean saw that Diluc was still about to leave the Knights, and her eyes revealed obvious reluctance.

This time

"Although you said at my bedside that you would go back to run the Dawn Winery after the crisis is resolved..."

"But, when this moment really comes, I still feel reluctant..." Qin's voice trembled slightly, and she tried hard to control her emotions.

Diluk raised his right hand slightly, wanting to express something, but hesitated.

However, Qin finally put away her reluctant gaze and said firmly: "Okay, I respect your choice, senior, but I will miss the time working with you again during this period of time..."

"There is nothing worth remembering about this period of disaster in Mondstadt." Diluk's voice was cold and emotionless.

……

Compared to Mondstadt, which has already gotten out of its predicament, Alice is now rushing to the Misty Sea Islands without stopping.

After driving away Shao Yun's brother-in-law "Kong", Alice immediately came to rescue Ying, Paimeng and Shao Yun's daughter "Xi".

Although, the Abyss Cult was a relatively soft target in Alice's eyes and was the first to be dealt with.

However, we can't really treat the Abyss Cult as a soft persimmon. After all, Kong's brother-in-law "Shao Yun" is really not a pushover!

When Alice arrived above the Misty Sea Islands, her eyes were attracted by the wall of wind that enveloped the islands, isolating everything.

This wind wall does not exist on normal days, but Wendy obviously sensed Alice's approach, so she deliberately rebuilt this barrier.

Alice looked at the familiar scene in front of her and couldn't help but sigh: "Mist Sea Islands... I never thought I would see the scenery of Old Mondstadt here, and this indestructible wind wall..."

Then, she slowly approached the wind wall, feeling the breath contained in it.

After careful observation and feeling, Alice made an evaluation of this wind wall.

"This wall of wind is mixed with obvious hostility..."

Then, Alice seemed to be talking to herself, or to Wendy under the wind wall: "Even if you build this wind wall to isolate everything, you can't stop the wind from delivering information to your ears.

"Now, let's talk!"

However, despite Alice's nice words, this wall of wind that isolated everything showed no signs of disappearing.

Alice sighed helplessly upon seeing this.

Since soft measures don't work, we have no choice but to resort to hard measures.

"Well, since you, Barbatos, are still stubborn, don't blame me for being rude."

As she spoke, Alice raised her hand slightly and aimed at the wind wall in front of her.

The moment she raised her hand, a powerful energy gushed out from her palm.

This energy did not directly hit the wind wall, but penetrated into the wind wall in a peculiar way.

In just a moment, the wind wall dissipated.

However, at the moment when the wind wall dissipated, a blue flash came rushing towards them at a speed so fast that it was astonishing.

The blue flash was about to hit Alice's forehead at the critical moment.

Flames suddenly ignited on the surface of the green light, enveloping the entire green light.

The green light made crackling sounds under the burning flames, and finally turned into ashes only one millimeter away from Alice's eyebrows.

That green light was not an ordinary light, but an arrow mixed with wind element shot by the God of Wind at Alice.

Alice's eyes were fixed on the place where the green light exploded, and then she followed the trajectory of the light towards the Misty Sea Islands.

There, she instantly saw the God of Wind standing on the top of the mountain on Shuangshuang Island.

"Barbatos, are you crazy? You actually shot an arrow at me?" Alice yelled.
