They grew up in an orphanage and were nominally the Queen's children, but they had no idea who they were. At most, they knew where their ancestry lay.
But after they have mastered certain skills, they will be sent to various countries on the continent as members of the advance team or as agents to dedicate their lives to Her Majesty the Queen.
In this life... ... whether I can return to Winter Solstice again is still an unknown, let alone see the Winter Solstice Palace
Even Bai Luo only took a quick glance at it and didn't know the whole picture.
"Mr. Executive, you must have seen many similar buildings, right?"
Bella skillfully took out a bottle of kerosene, opened it and handed it to Bai Luo, then asked.
Although she was directly under the command of Rooster, she had only met the great mayor when she set out, and had never dealt with the executive officer again since then.
The Bai Luo in front of her was the executive she was most familiar with, no doubt about it.
In her opinion, the status of the executive officers was second only to that of the Queen. The places they had been to and the people they had met were far beyond what the soldiers like them could imagine.
"I guess so. The Queen's Winter Palace, Liyue's Jade Pavilion, Inazuma's castle tower..."
Counting on his fingers, Bai Luo named several buildings in succession, almost each of which was the most prestigious place in each country.
Except for the Qun Yu Pavilion, which he had not actually climbed, he had been to the other places more or less.
"Which one is the most luxurious in your opinion?"
Bella asked again as she got herself a bottle of fire water.
"Hmm... the castle tower, right?"
Putting aside other things, if we only talk about which one Bai Luo thinks is the most luxurious, it is definitely the castle tower.
After all, only there could Bai Luo be said to have seen it all in the true sense.
He even knew what kind of bricks were in the wall and how thick it was.
"Why?"
“I took it apart.”
"What do you think?"
"Yeah, I took it apart."
"???"
While Bai Luo was enjoying his life in Guyun Pavilion, Liyue City had become a mess, just as he had expected.
In fact, the conflict between the Seven Stars and the Immortals had been almost resolved when they fought side by side because of Bai Luo's assistance. In addition, with Grandma Ping's lobbying, the two sides finally reached a temporary settlement.
This also made Ningguang feel relieved.
The post-disaster reconstruction work was already enough to give her a headache, and if the immortal continued to cause trouble... ... that would undoubtedly be adding insult to injury.
But after dealing with the matter of the immortal, the second thing made her so worried that she started losing her hair.
That is the fools.
Although she had anticipated the Fatui's plan before the battle began, she never expected that these people would be so ruthless.
As we all know, the discipline of the Fatui is definitely the best in the entire continent of Teyvat.
When the executors asked them to swing their weapons at the gods, they did it without blinking an eye.
This kind of discipline would also be extremely terrifying if applied to other aspects.
When Bai Luo ordered all-out assistance to the people of Liyue, this group of soldiers immediately displayed their terrifying power when disaster struck.
In order to carry out Bai Luo's orders, these soldiers sometimes even disregarded their own safety and tried their best to rescue everyone in Liyue.
This also led to the fact that during this disaster, the reputation of the Fatui once surpassed that of the Thousand Rocks Army, and even some of the soldiers of the Thousand Rocks Army began to have a good impression of the Fatui.
Ningguang originally wanted to cause trouble for these Fatui afterwards, but now it seems... she must be careful and weigh the pros and cons. If she arouses public anger at this time, it will not be a good thing for the Seven Stars.
In addition, she also needs to deal with the group of fanatical believers who are causing trouble.
In short, she will have a headache next.
Northland Bank.
Today's banks are more bustling than ever before.
After the disaster, everyone came here to take away the money they had deposited.
Although it cost a lot of money, these people still felt good after seeing some of their neighbors lose all their property because they did not take it seriously.
It's also quite satisfying to pay.
Zhongli looked at the noisy crowd, frowned slightly, and walked towards the upper level.
When the Fatui guarding here saw him, they did not try to stop him, but took the initiative to lead him to a room.
"As expected of the God of Contract, you are very punctual."
After the door opened, Rosaline looked at Zhongli standing at the door and put down the book in her hand.
At the desk next to him, Andre wiped the sweat from his head and kept working.
Due to her health, although Rosaline is currently the highest-ranking executive in Liyue, she does not directly inquire about matters related to Liyue.
Everything was still going according to the plan Bai Luo had made when she left. She was just giving advice when Andre couldn't make up his mind.
"Where's Bai Luo? He hasn't come back yet?"
After looking around the room, Zhongli did not come in.
He thought Bai Luo had already returned.
"That guy is always elusive. Meeting him... is harder than meeting the queen."
Rosalin said, spreading her hands a little helplessly.
It is said that the Doctor is the most elusive of all executives.
But in her opinion, Bai Luo is even more elusive than the doctor.
At least she would occasionally see the doctor's slices, but as for Bai Luo... sometimes even if he was right next to her, she might not be able to see him.
Chapter 674 I Want to Give It to Him Personally
"Let's not talk about that kid for now. Did you bring the things?"
Rosaline, who was originally half leaning on the sofa, sat up, made room for Zhongli, and asked.
As the highest-ranking Fatui member in Liyue, the task of taking over the spoils naturally fell on her when Bai Luo was away.
Although taking over the Heart of God might speed up the passage of her almost exhausted life, she was still worried about handing such a thing over to an ordinary person.
"Well, according to the contents of the contract, the Heart of God does belong to you. But I think I said that I want to hand this thing to Bai Luo personally."
Zhongli did not hand over the Heart of God in his hand immediately.
It’s not that he had other intentions, he was just afraid that Bai Luo would make a fuss about this matter later.
Of course, it is not ruled out that he saw Rosalind's physical condition at the time and knew that this thing would not be of any benefit to her.
"You should have seen the depth of this city. Logically, you shouldn't need this thing, right?"
Rosaline was not surprised that Zhongli did not hand over the Heart of God immediately.
But she didn't anticipate what Zhongli was worried about.
If she knew that the God of Contracts was afraid that Bai Luo would cause trouble over the contract and refused to give her the Heart of God at this time, the expression on her face would probably be very interesting, right
"Don't worry, this is a deal with the God of Ice. I won't break my promise, but I think it's safer to hand it over directly to Bai Luo."
"Okay... You guys from Liyue all have bad tempers."
Rosalin sighed a little helplessly and did not continue.
She seemed to see the little thoughts of the rock god in front of her.
But these have nothing to do with her. Anyway, the actual person in charge here is Bai Luo, and she is just here to take advantage of the situation.
"Tell him when he comes back that I'll be waiting for him at the Rock Tea House."
"Well, take care."
After leaving the Northland Bank and walking on the streets of Feiyunpo, Zhongli felt more relaxed than ever before.
That’s right. After getting rid of the burden of more than 3,700 years, it’s pretty good that he didn’t float away.
Look around again.
Even though Morax has passed away, Liyue is still operating as tenaciously as before.
The remaining mud and sand on the streets has disappeared due to the day and night efforts of the Qianyan Army. Street vendors are now selling goods again, and everything is moving in a positive direction.
The Seven Stars have completely taken control of the city after the death of "Morax".
Not only that, they also handle many affairs in an orderly manner.
First of all, there was the assassination of the Emperor.
Thanks to Toroje and his gang's high-profile behavior, most people in Liyue knew about this group of people and knew that they were a rebel gang made up of believers of the Old Demon God.
In addition, Roger boasted everywhere that the Rock King was killed by their messenger, which almost made this case no longer suspenseful.
In fact, earlier on, the people of Liyue did think that he was bragging, and everyone believed that he was just using the assassination of the Emperor to build momentum for himself.
At most, they would scold him when they saw him, or simply notify the Qianyan Army directly, but not many people would take it seriously.
But after Osel's resurrection and what they did in the Jade Pavilion was widely publicized, his words became true.
The Qun Yu Pavilion also promptly pinned the blame on them, making them take the blame for Bai Luo.
This is not the end yet.
Perhaps it was because Ningguang had tasted the sweetness of using the Emperor's name to solve the strange noise incident at Feiyunpo last time, that this time she was still very smart and used the old method.
Do you still remember the ceremony of sending off the immortals organized by Zhongli and the Traveler
Normally at this point in time, Qixing and the General Affairs Department would have been overwhelmed by various things, but Ningguang used the immortal ceremony as an excuse to put off many tasks.
Although doing so was somewhat outrageous, the ceremony of sending off the immortal that Zhongli arranged for himself bought the Seven Stars and the General Affairs Department a full seven days.
All those who want to cause trouble, when they hear that the General Affairs Department and Qixing are preparing for the ceremony of sending off the immortals for Emperor Yanwang, will sigh and choose to follow Qixing's arrangements and discuss it later.
Death is the greatest thing, especially when the one who died is the emperor they respected the most? Even if the sky falls, they have to wait until the emperor's farewell ceremony is over.
What moved Ningguang even more was that she said that these seven days were for the preparation of the Immortal Sending Ceremony. In fact, her old leader, Zhongli, had already helped her prepare everything. She only needed to show up after seven days to read out the Seven Stars' announcement.
During these seven days, she and the other seven stars could finish all the work at hand, and then carry out various post-disaster condolences, repairs and management work with ease, greatly reducing the difficulty for them to solve the problems.
Zhongli naturally noticed this, but he didn't say it out loud.
In his original plan, Qixing had already passed the test as long as he had the courage to fight against the devil, not to mention that this time there was Bai Luo who was even more terrifying than the devil.
To be able to achieve the current level is more than just passing, it is enough for him to give a very high evaluation.
It is right to be strict with children, but you can't be too tense all the time.
These seven days of free time can be regarded as a rest period after their exams.
"Hey, is that Zhongli in front? Hey! Zhongli!"
Just when Zhongli was about to go to the Yanshang Teahouse to sit for a while, a slightly surprised voice came from behind him.
And this familiar voice already let him know who was calling him.
"Are you a traveler? Long time no see."
Indeed, after completing the ceremony of sending the immortals, Ying and Paimon went to see the immortals together, and they have never met each other since then.
"That's great. We were wondering if you might have been in trouble in the previous flood."
Paimon walked around Zhongli and made sure that there was nothing wrong with him before he spoke with relief.
After returning to Liyue City, the two of them realized the damage the previous battle at sea had brought to this trading capital.
Even Xiangling's Wanmin Hall was flooded by sea water, and it took a whole day to clean up the mud and sand in the house.
This is not the end yet.
The seasonings they had prepared and some ingredients they had stored previously were all washed away by the sea water. It is said that it will take a long time before they can open again.
Fortunately, everyone is fine.
