Inquirer of Teyvat

Chapter 577

In Sumeru City,

Hundreds of enchanted butterflies fly around the heavy clouds,

When Chongyun ordered,

These butterflies spread their wings and flew to every corner of Sumeru City.

Chongyun's method of controlling the butterfly caught many people's eyes.

"Wow, Chongyun, you are so awesome. You can actually control butterflies." Several girls were not interested in the competition, but they were very interested in butterflies.

Come to think of it, how many girls can deny themselves a beautiful scene surrounded by butterflies.

As a result, Chongyun quickly changed from a favorable competitor in the competition to a machine for creating human attractions.

At the plea of ​​the girls,

Chongyun once again inspired a group of butterflies and helped the girls take photos.

Not only the girls in Liyue's team, but also many tourists and local girls approached.

In addition to the girls who liked butterflies, there were also several men who were looking around and stopped, as if they were curious about Chongyun's technique.

And Chong Yun is a person who is not good at rejection.

Then,
Chongyun started to get busy,

Only Xing Qiu stared at those men looking around, frowning slightly,
Years of experience in the rivers and lakes told him that these people are not good people.

But Xing Qiu didn't say anything, just approached quietly, flipped his hand, and nailed a button-sized mechanical device to one of them's clothes.

at the same time,

On the high stage of the celebration,
With a smile on the corner of Keqing's mouth, she was introducing Chongyun's methods to the public.

"Contestant Chongyun is a unique alchemist in Liyue. His mission is to exorcise demons and ward off evil spirits. The talismans he uses are a means of enlightening mountain elves. Alchemists often use this method when tracking monsters in the wild. It is also a very good way to use it to find the Swift Flying Butterfly."

Listening to Keqing's introduction, the people in the audience nodded.

They don't know what an alchemist is, but they know that people who exorcise evil spirits are probably good people.

Then Chongyun is a good person, and no one would hate a good person.

Listening to the positive discussion of the audience,

The smile on Keqing's face became even bigger,
For this celebration of the Holy Order, the Holy Order invited envoys from these countries to come here, and wanted to let foreign countries know more about Sumeru.

But when these missions came to Sumeru, why didn't they want the Sumerians to understand their country better.

Mutual understanding is the prerequisite for mutual communication.

Understanding, communication, familiarity, and then we can make progress together.

Turning his gaze back to the Liyue team,

While Chongyun was busy helping the girls pose and take pictures,
A group of butterflies flew back from Sumeru City with a special butterfly in their arms.

Xingqiu's eyes lit up, and he shouted happily: "Chongyun, Chongyun, don't take pictures, catch the swift butterfly first."

Among the crowd surrounded by girls, Chongyun stretched out a hand with difficulty, and pinched a formula,

The group of butterflies landed beside Xing Qiu with their swift flying butterflies.

Xing Qiu was overjoyed, and easily grabbed the swift butterfly with his hand.

Simultaneously,

On the high platform of the celebration, the scoreboard changes,

[Points leaderboard:

No.1: Keli (Mond), 1 point.

No.2: A hat (Sumi), 1 point.

No.3: Ying (traveler), 1 point.

No.4: Sano (Sumi), 1 point.

No.5: Izuto Ararataki (Inazuma), 1 point.

No.6: Xingqiu (Liyue), 1 point.

...]

Most of the day has passed, and six swift flying butterflies have been caught, leaving only four outside.

Although the contestants cannot see the list, they can also hear the voices of the crowd.

With Void, the message transmission in Sumeru City is still very fast.

Ever since, players aspiring to be champions have started working hard.

On the branch of the sacred tree, Sano flashed like lightning, constantly approaching a flying butterfly that was fleeing quickly,
Although he has been deceived many times by mechanical flying butterflies, Sano's perception is after all the strongest among the contestants.
After a thorough search, he finally found a swift flying butterfly on a branch of the sacred tree.

Lightning flashed, Sano worked hard for a long time, finally caught a swift butterfly in his hand, and then showed a relieved smile.

the other side,
As an outstanding student of the Minglun School, Leila walked on the street with a blank expression.

Compared with the various methods other players have, Layla is the real ordinary player.

Of course, the premise is that she doesn't look for a 'representative hitter'.

"No, I have to work harder to find it. I can't get sleepy anymore. Everyone is expecting me to win, so I can't let everyone down."

Although anyone can sign up for this competition, anyone can participate.

However, Leila's application was recommended by more than half of the scholars of the Minglun School.

Bearing the eyes of these scholars either looking forward to or waiting for a joke, Leyla was under a lot of pressure.

In desperation, Layla searched more and more recklessly.

It was probably luck. In a hurry, Laila turned her eyes and saw a butterfly fluttering its wings among the flowers and plants on the street not far away.

"Flying Butterfly!" Leyla exclaimed.

Then without thinking, he pounced on the butterfly.

It's a pity that she doesn't have the strength of Sano, nor the speed of Ah Mao.

The Swift Flying Butterfly just flicked its wings lightly, and quickly escaped from Layla's pounce range.

Missing a hit, Layla didn't dare to neglect, and continued to chase the swift flying butterfly, biting behind her tightly.

After chasing and fleeing, he ran to the entrance of Baoshang Street.

Here, the Liyue team is still taking pictures, and among the girls watching, there are many girls with unusual temperaments.

The swift flying butterfly flew all the way, hovering above the crowd, and then seemed to sense something, and landed on top of a girl.

"Hey, Candice, there's a butterfly on your head." Desiya looked curious as she watched the swift flying butterfly land on her friend's head.

Candice smiled gently: "Isn't this Liyue alchemist always controlling butterflies? If one of them lands on my head, there's nothing strange about it."

As she spoke, Candice reached out to grab the butterfly on her head.

"Wait, stop!"*2
Two shouts sounded from the side.

Candice's hand froze, and then looked suspiciously at the source of the shout.

Layla was panting heavily on the side of the street, and she was exhausted from chasing the swift butterfly all the way.
On the other side is Xingqiu with glowing eyes,

He couldn't leave because Chongyun was surrounded by girls, but he was a little idle, only to see a swift butterfly flying over again.

There is no reason not to get the score delivered to your door.

That's why Xingqiu and Leila shouted at the same time to stop Candice's actions.

"Oh? The two called me, could it be that I was being rude?" Candice looked at the two with a half-smile.

"No, no, ma'am, you misunderstood. It's just the butterfly on your head. It's a prop for this competition. It moves very fast. Please wait a moment and don't disturb it. We will catch it soon." Xingqiu explained Dao, and then approached Chongyun, wanting Chongyun to engulf the butterflies and control the swift flying butterflies.

On the other side, Leila also looked at Candice, but she had an advantage over Xingqiu, that is, she knew Candice.

"Miss Candice, I am chasing this swift flying butterfly." Leila shouted.

Candice looked at Xingqiu and then at Laila.

"Oh, so it's Layla you, didn't you sleepwalk this time?"

Jokingly said a word Layla,

Candice shook her head, seeing that the Swift Flying Butterfly was disturbed and was about to fly away.

It's a pity that someone is faster than it,

Candice's eyes flashed, and she stretched out her right hand, accurately intercepting the swift flying butterfly on its way, and grabbed it.

"Hiss, so fast~"

After receiving the news from Xingqiu, Chongyun, who was about to control the butterfly group to score the second point, looked at Candice in surprise.

From the opponent's actions just now, Chong Yun knew that this was another powerful God's Eye holder.

With the speed and judgment just now, Chongyun thought of his aunt.

The little aunt in the fairy state is always so fast and so precise.

"Oh, this thing is the mission butterfly you want?" Candice looked at the swift butterfly in her hand casually, but Candice didn't see any tricks.

With a casual throw, he threw the Swift Flying Butterfly to Laila.

As for why it was for Layla, because among the contestants here, she only knew Layla.

There was a trace of pity in his eyes, but although he didn't get the second point, Xingqiu still maintained his etiquette.

"It seems that my eyesight is stupid. I didn't expect you, ma'am, to be a powerful fighter." Xing Qiu said with emotion.

"Hahahaha, of course, Candice is the guardian of Aru Village, so she is very strong." Disiya laughed, bragging about Candice's power to everyone.

Candice shook her head slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable with Desiya's bragging.

Although most of these brags are telling the truth.

On the other side, on the high stage of the celebration, the points list changes one after another.

[Points leaderboard:

No.1: Keli (Mond), 1 point.

No.7: Falusan (Sumi), 1 point.

No.8: Leyla (Sumi), 1 point.

...]

Two more places were confirmed, and the public's discussion became more and more heated. Everyone became more curious about who would win the last two points.

It didn't take long for the discussion to rage, and the list changed again.

[Points leaderboard:

No.1: Keli (Mond), 1 point.

No.2: A hat (Sumi), 1 point.

No.3: Ying (traveler), 1 point.

No.4: Sano (Sumi), 1 point.

No.5: Izuto Ararataki (Inazuma), 1 point.

No.6: Xingqiu (Liyue), 1 point.

No.7: Falusan (Sumi), 1 point.

No.8: Leyla (Sumi), 1 point.

No.9: Scorpion (Sumi), 1 point.

No.10: Charlotte (Fontaine), 1 point. 】

On the high platform, two light curtains were enlarged,
It was the scene where the last two swift butterflies were captured,
The capture of the scorpion is very simple, find the swift butterfly, and then directly take it down with great strength.

The lightning power of the Sacred Scorpion shot down the swift flying butterfly flying in mid-air in just a moment,

Although he lost a point to Araki Ichito, Scorpio still managed to score.

It was the last place, somewhat beyond everyone's expectations,
It wasn't Farusan and Kavey who released a large number of mechanical butterflies, and it wasn't Tinari who wanted to give a lecture.

But a reporter from Fontaine,
As an international reporter, Charlotte's last desert adventure story was a huge success,

Many Fontaine people are curious about foreign things and want to know more.

So when the Holy Order held a celebration and invited representatives from various countries to participate, Charlotte knew that there must be big news.

So she appeared here very naturally,

She even signed up for a competition to represent more authentic news material.

And she was just here to shoot the news, and while she was shooting, a swift flying butterfly landed on her camera,

Miss reporter didn't think much, she reached out and grasped it, and successfully became No.10.

In the judges' seat, feeling the gazes of other people, Na Villette looked calm, but there was still a slight movement in his eyes.

He didn't expect that there would be something like Fontaine in this game.

On this mission, he did not bring any adventurers from Fontaine, nor did he bring any combat-oriented subordinates.

The most capable person in the entire mission is himself.

However, considering that the other party is a reporter from the steam bird newspaper, it is normal to appear here.

Of course, feeling the gazes from all around, Villette knew that everyone was waiting for him to introduce the Fontaine player.

"This Miss Charlotte is a reporter from the famous newspaper of Fontaine—Steam Bird Newspaper. She is also a very famous reporter in Fontaine. She has reported many major events. Before the adventure activities held in the Sumeru Desert, Miss Charlotte Followed up and reported."

After all, Villette was the supreme judge, and he recorded a lot of information about Fontaine in his mind. It only took him a few breaths to piece together an introduction.

"It turns out that there is such a relationship. It seems that this Miss Charlotte and Sumi are also very destined." On the referee's seat, Elheisen said with a smile.

Well, it’s still a standardized smile.

The people also commented that this kind of story with origins attracted them the most.

Presumably, it won't be long before an image of a Fontaine reporter who likes Sumi culture will be created.

Soon,
As the information of the end of the game was sent to the contestants through the void terminal, each contestant gradually returned to the high platform of the celebration.

As the referee, Nilu got up, took a step forward, and announced the temporary end of the game. It would be best to leave it to someone like an image ambassador like her.

"The first round of this celebration competition has officially ended. The results will continue to be displayed on the points list. You can check it by yourself. The next round of competition will be held in three days. The location is the desert. Players can go there by themselves, or they can Take the transportation machinery prepared by the Order."

"Of course, audiences don't need to worry. Under the great power of Lord Red Sand, the second round of the match will also be broadcast live on the high platform. Audiences can continue to watch here then."

"Okay, finally I announce that the first round of the competition is over, everyone can go back to rest or play the celebration."

After Nilu announced the end,
The contestants gradually left, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

The referees and judges were received at the reception desk of the Order Academy.

After sitting for a long time, there must be something in return, at least a dinner is not too much.

Even El Heisen, who didn't want to work overtime and wanted to get off work, couldn't just leave, and could only accompany the messengers through the dinner.

……

after dinner,
Navillette returned to the embassy,

In the embassy, ​​Charlotte is already waiting,

Originally, Charlotte's visit to Sumeru had nothing to do with Na Villette.
But since the reporter was lucky enough to win the ranking, Villette naturally had to find out more about it.

Today's game, introduction, commentary.

Na Villette has already figured it out. Except for him, the envoy with a special purpose, the other envoys came here to promote their own country and understand the country of Sumeru.

"In this case, Fontaine can't miss this opportunity." Na Villette thought inwardly.

Soon, he saw Charlotte, who was a little frightened.

Well, a little excitement mixed with trepidation.

As a citizen of Fontaine, Charlotte is afraid of being summoned by the Supreme Judge for no reason, or in a foreign country.

But as a reporter, Charlotte was excited to meet this kind of thing.

"Miss Charlotte, it's okay for me to call you this." Villette looked at the girl in front of her.

Charlotte nodded again and again: "Yes, of course, of course."

Villette smiled, and he could see the worry in Charlotte's heart.

"Don't worry, I'm here to encourage you to participate in the competition. This time the multi-national missions gathered in Sumeru, but we don't have many adventurers from Fontaine, so you can participate and get a ranking. It's very good .”

"Hey~ Is there any reward?" Upon hearing that it was not a bad thing, Charlotte's inner worries disappeared, and her boldness as a reporter returned.

"Huh? Reward, haha, interesting, what reward does Miss Charlotte want?" Villette didn't expect Charlotte to ask for a reward, but he was not angry, but rather happy.

Doing things and asking for rewards is reasonable in Navillet's understanding of human beings.

Charlotte looked at Villette expectantly: "Well, can I do a column report about you?"

At this moment, Charlotte's heart was already flustered.

What Sumeru celebration, what grand event, after it is reported back to Fontaine, can there be anything more influential than the column report of the supreme judge?

Charlotte answered the question internally: No.

"Heh, Miss Charlotte really has professional ethics. How about it? If you can achieve a good result in the next competition, then it's okay for me to accept your interview."

One party proposes a reward, the other proposes a demand,
This kind of transaction is in line with the values ​​of Na Villette.

It is also consistent with his understanding of the human race.

"Okay, then it's a deal." Charlotte said happily.

Although I don't know what kind of results Villette asked for a good result, but judging from the situation that I got the last place today, it is enough to be on the list.

As a transnational reporter, Charlotte thinks she has some means.

"Oh, of course I won't break my promise." Na Villette nodded slightly.

After explaining some more things, Villette let Charlotte leave.

"Fontaine also needs more international discourse power." Navillet thought slightly in his heart,

Then he remembered his god again.

Suddenly I felt frustrated and a little helpless.

Fontaine is in power, and the water god Fukalos, or Funina, can only be described as immature in Navilette's heart.

Of course, Fennina herself did not agree with this evaluation.

"Forget it, I... always want to leave some retreat for Fontaine."

No one knows why Villette, as one of the high-ranking beings, is willing to submit to the water god and be the supreme judge.

The secret here is probably only known to Villette and the normal water god.
