Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 919 Alice's Action

The director's cut of The Two Gunslingers was playing on the screen in the living room of Sitrali's house.

Because Shao Yun had experienced all the filming, he was very familiar with the entire film process and would doze off from time to time.

Xitrali stared at the screen intently, deeply attracted by the movie.

She was so engrossed in the movie that she hardly dared to breathe loudly throughout the entire process, for fear that her breathing would cover up the dialogue in the movie.

However, when "Landon Ricketts" appeared on the screen in the movie, Xitila couldn't help but scream.

This character is so handsome! Although in the movie setting, "Langdon" is older, for some reason, Xitela Li found him full of charm.

As the plot progressed, when she saw "Landon" heroically sacrificed to save the protagonist's sisters, Xitlal burst into tears...

"Woo woo woo! How come this 'Landon' died? There wasn't even any foreshadowing that he wasn't dead. Also, why does he have so few scenes?"

After hearing Xitlal's complaints, Shao Yun rolled his eyes and said unhappily:

"Come on, this movie is called The Two Gunslingers, not The Langdon Story. Langdon Ricketts is just a supporting role in this movie, not the main character at all."

"And if you look at the movie, Langdon is already so old. Even if he didn't go to protect the protagonist sisters from leaving, he would have been half buried in the ground."

However, Xitlalli shook her head stubbornly, with an expression full of expectation on her face, and said: "No, I must wait, maybe there will be Easter eggs in the later stages!"

"Maybe after the protagonist sisters have taken revenge, Landon will suddenly appear!"

As Sitali spoke, she became more and more excited, as if she had already seen Langdon appear on the screen.

Seeing this, Shao Yun sighed helplessly and reminded: "This movie is about two little girls avenging their mother from beginning to end. The Easter egg at the end is just visiting the grave of the dead mother, plus some extra behind-the-scenes footage."

"In this movie, Langdon is at most a teacher who teaches the sisters skills on their road to revenge. Don't hold out too much hope," Shao Yun advised earnestly.

Xitralis didn't care about Shao Yun's words at all, and insisted: "No, I must wait! The director's cut has so much more plot than the ordinary version, there must be some unknown details!"

Shao Yun looked at Xitlal, who was still full of fantasies about the plot of the movie, and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart:

"I am the actor who plays Langdon in this movie. Do you, Settlal, understand the plot better, or do I, the person involved, know it better?"

However, no matter what Shao Yun thought, the movie continued to play at the set rhythm.

Time passed minute by minute, and the entire film reel was finished, but Sitrali still didn't see the plot that she had been longing for, that Langdon was not dead.

In the end, all that Sitrali saw were some behind-the-scenes footage that wasn't in the regular version, as well as content like the "Red Harrow" Easter egg world line.

When the movie ended, Xitlalli was not as excited as she expected.

Instead, there was a look of loss on her face.

"Why? Why isn't there an Easter egg where Langdon survived?"

Shao Yun looked at Xitila, who looked disheartened, and explained, "Because this movie is adapted from a novel, and Langdon is an original character."

"In the movie, Langdon's role is to prevent the protagonist sisters' skilled shooting skills, which can defeat hundreds of enemies alone, from appearing too abrupt when they go for revenge."

"Because if you don't learn how to use a gun, you can't become a master without a teacher! And you can't become a sharpshooter."

After watching the movie, Xitila seemed to have lost her mind. A question kept echoing in her mind: "Hey, why, why did Langdon die... How could he die..."

Shao Yun looked at Xitila Li who was already in a trance in front of him, and asked in confusion: "That's it? Is it necessary to be so excited just to watch a movie?"

However, Xitrali did not respond to Shao Yun's question. She just lay quietly on the pillow with empty eyes, as if the whole world had nothing to do with her.

: "Go away, I need to calm down..."

Shao Yun originally wanted to ask Xitlari to fulfill her previous promise, but seeing her in such a state, he could only sigh helplessly and gave up the idea.

Shao Yun quietly packed up the screen and projector, but couldn't help muttering in his heart: "What the hell is going on? Didn't we agree that after the movie, you would tell me about the progress of the ranch site selection? Really..."

After Shao Yun packed up the screen and projector and left Xitlalli's house, a prompt suddenly popped up on the system.

[You used your reflection to relieve Miss Xitrali's work pressure. ]

[Miss Xitela will provide you with more and better ranch sites. ]

Shao Yun stared at the prompt box that popped up from the system, summed up several key pieces of information, and said to himself: "Provide more and more suitable ranch site selection options? What does this mean?"

The system then gave an explanation.

【People cannot be in a working state all the time. Both the body and the brain need proper rest. Only by combining work and rest can we maintain high work efficiency. 】

Shao Yun rolled his eyes disapprovingly and thought to himself, "Do I need to tell you this?" However, he still decided to raise a question that had been bothering him.

"Actually, I have a question." Shao Yun said.

The system immediately responded:

【what is the problem? 】

Shao Yun asked curiously, "Did Xitela realize that the 'Landon Ricketts' in the movie was actually played by me?"

An answer box quickly popped up on the system.

[Then you should thank Ms. Chiori's makeup skills. ]

Shao Yun looked at this answer, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he gave a dry laugh.

"Haha, okay. Then I'd better not let Sitrali's fantasy be shattered."

……

At the same time, at the "Stone Gate", the border area between Mondstadt and Liyue, a clear dividing line separates the two places.

In Liyue in the south, the sun is shining, spring flowers are blooming, and the scene is full of vitality and everything is competing to grow; while in Mondstadt in the north, it is covered with ice and snow and the wind is freezing.

Those who don't know would think that Zhidong is bordering Liyue...

Alice walked step by step from the Shimen area of Liyue to Mondstadt in the blizzard mixed with hail.

She looked at the land ravaged by the blizzard and muttered, "This is not a blizzard, it's hail!"

Then, Alice turned her gaze towards the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain in the blizzard.

"Let's go to Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain to look for Albedo first. I hope those damned members of the Abyss Cult don't use Durin's remains..."

"After we find Albedo, we'll go to Mondstadt and take a look at the situation. It's time to end this farce."

……

At this time in Mondstadt, due to the intensifying blizzard, the Knights of Favonius, who were originally able to patrol in the wild, had to retreat back into the city to avoid being harmed by the bad weather.

Now, anyone who goes out will be hit hard by a blizzard mixed with hail.

It is no exaggeration to say that if this blizzard deliberately created by the Abyss Cult continues, the people of Mondstadt will face two tragic endings.

Either they starved to death or they froze to death in the severe cold.

At this moment, in the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius, Jean's injuries have basically healed, and she has returned to her work.

However, faced with the increasingly severe and desperate situation, Qin, who had just recovered from a serious illness, felt that her mental and physical strength were about to reach its limit.

In Qin's office, by the light of candles, Qin and Diluk were working on official business all night.

Qin listened to the sound of hail hitting the window glass violently, and the sound of howling wind and heavy snow outside the house.

These voices echoed in her ears, making her feel that her hope of survival was becoming increasingly slim.

Qin's eyes fell on the piles of documents on her desk, like a vast sea of smoke, and she felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Then, she slowly turned her head and looked at Diluk who was standing beside her to assist her. She asked with a tired face, "How long can Mondstadt hold out..."

Diluk's expression remained unchanged.

He reported the current situation in Mondstadt to Jean in a calm and steady voice.

"As for food, it will probably last about a week, and as for fuel, there are only four days of reserves left."

Then, Diluk continued, "The kindhearted man named Dain sent a message that due to the worsening snowstorm in Mondstadt, the caravans from Liyue no longer dare to come to deliver supplies."

"They said they were worried that even if they made money, they might lose their lives because of this snowstorm..."

After hearing this news, Qin began to doubt herself...

"Senior Diluk, am I really useless..."

After hearing what Jean said, Diluk was silent for a moment, and then began to carefully recall Jean's performance since taking over the Knights Templar after Grand Master Falga led the main force of the Knights Templar on an expedition.

In Diluk's impression, Qin is indeed immature in some aspects, but this is understandable, after all, she is still young and lacks experience.

Moreover, facing such a complicated situation today, even if someone else were to serve as acting head of the group, it would probably be difficult to cope with it.

All of this is caused by the Wind God... It's obviously unreasonable to blame it on the head of the zither...

Fortunately, however, despite the difficult situation, there was no large-scale panic in Mondstadt.

This is largely due to the prestige that Jyn has established in Mond over the years. It is because of her presence that everyone's emotions can be calmed.

"Things are too complicated, and the situation isn't that bad yet. We will definitely get through this."

Immediately afterwards, Diluk had an idea that went against his ancestors, and placed his hopes on the "Faints".

"Although I don't trust the Fatui, the Fatui executive named Alechino said that he would..."

At this moment, the office door was slowly pushed open, making a slight "creaking" sound.

Albedo walked in and politely greeted the two people in the office: "Captain Jean, Mr. Diluk, good evening."

When Qin heard Albedo's voice, she raised her head suddenly. The moment their eyes met, her heart tightened and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

She suspected that something might have happened in Dragonspine Snow Mountain. After all, Albedo was responsible for guarding Dragonspine Snow Mountain.

"Mr. Albedo, is there something wrong with Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain?"

Albedo shook his head and replied calmly, "No, Captain Jean, you don't have to worry. The Abyss Cult did not attack the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain."

Hearing this, Qin finally felt relieved. That was good...

Before Qin could ask, Albedo said, "What I brought today is actually some really good news."

"Good news?" Qin's eyes suddenly lit up, and the fire in her heart was instantly ignited.

I haven’t heard any good news in more than two months!

At this moment, a figure suddenly emerged from behind Albedo, like a big, energetic sun.

This big sun is the mother of the little sun - Alice!

Alice shouted enthusiastically, "It's me!"

Qin's face immediately broke into a smile of surprise. She stood up excitedly, walked quickly to Alice, and said, "Ms. Alice! It's you!"

Alice hopped to the desk and greeted happily, "Hello, Miss Gunhild, how do you feel about your injury?"

Qin touched the place where she was shot in the abdomen, smiled bitterly, and said:

"My injuries are nothing. I thought you would abandon Mond, Ms. Alice."

After all, when the snowstorm started in Mondstadt, Alice ran away with Klee...

Alice laughed when she heard that.

"How could I abandon Mond?"

"Although the current situation in Mond is indeed very complicated, or even terrible, I will never watch it go to destruction!"

A glimmer of hope flashed in Qin's eyes, and she couldn't wait to ask: "So, Ms. Alice, do you have any specific suggestions or plans?"

"To be honest, we are at the end of our rope..."

Alice thought for a moment, then said slowly:

"First, I need to deal with the snowstorm that's plaguing Mond."

"In addition, I need to remind everyone of one thing. What the Wind God did is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Mondstadt's thousand-year-old faith."

"But now, staying alive is the most important thing."

What this means is that Mondstadt's belief in the God of Wind may no longer be as pure as before, and you need to be prepared to deal with social divisions.

Jyn didn't dwell too much on these issues. The most urgent task was to save Mondstadt and ensure that everyone could survive this disaster.

We’ll talk about faith and other things later.

"I understand what you mean, Ms. Alice. No matter what, we must first ensure Mondstadt's safety, and other matters can be dealt with slowly."

Seeing that Qin was ready, Alice comforted her in a gentle tone.

"Ms. Gunhild, please don't belittle yourself. You are doing very well now. It is definitely not your fault that Mond has come to this point."

Qin listened quietly to Alice's comfort and said softly: "Thank you very much for your comfort..."

Alice turned to look at Diluk standing beside her, and said to him with unstinting praise:

"And Mr. Leggenfind, I'm really glad to see you stand up for Mond again."

Diluk's expression was still as cold as usual, and he replied expressionlessly: "This is just what I should do."

After Alice finished saying everything she wanted to say, she made a solemn promise to the two of them before leaving.

"I promise you two, I will do everything in my power to save Mond!"
