Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

After wasting so much time, Su Hao finally embarked on his journey to Sumeru.

He was accompanied by others this time.

Ella, Black Ella, Kuki Shinobu, Coral Palace Heart Sea, Shinhaku.

The group heading to Sumeru this time consists of elites. Although the number of people is small, they are generally capable of escaping if any unexpected situation arises.

Ella and Black Ella are currently among the strongest beings below the Demon Gods. Possessing complete Demon God powers, they are already considered half-Demon Gods, even though they have not yet reached the Demon God realm.

Shen He needs no introduction; she is inherently powerful, with unparalleled skill in both spear fighting and talisman techniques, and... the opponent's physical strength is beyond imagination.

Finally, there is Coral Palace Heart Sea. As the current human-god priestess of the Sea God Island, she also possesses the bloodline of the Dragon King and, through secret techniques, can briefly possess the powers of a demon god.

As for Hisaki Shinobu... she's fine. She studied escape techniques with Yae no Miko for a while. Her combat strength isn't strong, but her escape speed is exceptional.

Therefore, this team can be described as quite strong.

After leaving Liyue Harbor, Su Hao and his group began planning how to discreetly enter Sumeru.

If Su Hao and his group wanted to keep a low profile, they would basically not be exposed unless they encountered a demon god-level being head-on.

Furthermore, upon entering the first station of Sumeru, choosing where to go and how to make contact with Seno are all questions.

So, on his way to Sumeru, Su Hao entered the chat group and began asking Seno and the Great Compassion Tree King if they had any good ideas.

[Su Hao: "Let's go! Sumeru!"]

[The Great Compassion Tree King: "Great!!!"]

[Raiden Shin: "Crack crack crack crack crack crack!"]

[Su Hao: "@Great Compassion Tree King @Sino, we are now heading to Mount Sumeru. Do you have any good strategies?"]

[Kuki Shinobu: "We've already discussed it. We plan to infiltrate Sumeru discreetly, and our identities will likely be Mondstadt merchants."]

[Coral Palace Heart Sea: "Yes, we plan to see if we can buy a few pack animals from passing merchants after we enter Sumeru."]

[Vendy: "Wait, Mondstadt merchants? You have Mondstadt people here???"]

[Su Hao: "I possess the authority of the Aeolus and the heart of the Aeolus, so wouldn't that make me half a Mondstadt citizen?"]

[Venti: "That's a bit of a stretch. Why don't you just inherit the title of Anemo Archon? That way you'd be a true Mondstadt citizen!"]

[King Nagatana: "That's the sound of an abacus!"]

[Raiden Shin: "I could hear it all clearly even in the Pure Land of One Heart."]

Zhong Li: "Being a merchant is just a disguise; no one will care."

[Zhong Li: "Mainly, it's about the next steps, and where to begin the investigation."]

[Great Tree King: "Mr. Zhongli is right. The so-called merchant identity is just a facade, whether it's a Mondstadt merchant or a Liyue merchant."]

[The Great Tree King: "The key is how to investigate, and... what the Fool's Enforcers and the Order of the Church are doing."]

[Sino: "Approximately how long will it take to reach Mount Sumeru?"]

[Kuki Shinobu: "If nothing unexpected happens, we should reach the border of Sumeru within two days."]

[Ella: "We can speed up our journey, but first we need to determine where to settle down. We're not particularly familiar with Sumeru."]

[Sino: "Well, as for a place to stay... you can go to Huacheng Guo in Daocheng Forest and find a forest ranger from Tinali there."]

[Sino: "Although there are spies from the Council of the Church over there, as long as you get in touch with Tinari and explain the situation to him, he will point you in the right direction."]

Paimon: "Explain the situation? Didn't you come here to find Su Hao?"

[Ying: "Sino must have something on his mind, which is why he couldn't come in person. Didn't he say last time that he was investigating something in the desert?"]

[Ella: "Yes, he mentioned investigating the Council of the Church in the desert region. I'm quite curious about that."]

[Ella: "What's the situation with the Council of the Church now? Young Master never sneaks into a country like this."]

[Su Hao: "Ahem, what do you mean by sneaking around? This is called being steady. If you're not steady, you're very likely to get tricked."]

[Su Hao: "While we are indeed very strong now, there are still beings stronger than us, so we need to remain cautious."]

Zhong Li: "Su Hao is right about that. There are always people more capable than you, and it's always good to be cautious."

[Sino: "I'm sorry, but even I can't give a general overview of the situation in Sumeru. I haven't gained anything in the desert during this time."]

[The Great Compassionate Tree King: "Now, you no longer need to hide anything. You can tell us all what Mount Sumeru is like now."]

[The Great Compassion Tree King: "This information no longer needs to be hidden; it can be released directly."]

[Sino: "……………………"]

At this moment, Seno, walking in the desert, looked at the words of the Great Tree King, his eyes dimmed, and he gripped the weapon in his hand tightly.

For a moment, I don't know what to say, because what exactly is Sumeru like now?

How could Seno tell the Tree King that the sages of the Order of the Church were secretly carrying out some kind of plan?

Based on his observations of the chat group day and night, Seno was basically certain that the Sages of the Order of the Fathers were almost certainly cooperating with the Executors of the Fools.

Sino didn't know the specifics of the collaborative project, but judging from the sages' attitude, it was a major event, a very, very important one.

Judging from the current situation, there are very few trustworthy personnel in the Order of the Fathers from top to bottom.

Five hundred years ago, after the death of the Great Tree King, the Order Institute welcomed back the Little Lucky Grass King, but the Little Lucky Grass King has been silent ever since.

Some say that although Little Auspicious Grass King is a second-generation grass god, she is not as good as Great Compassion Tree King, who lacks the wisdom to govern Mount Sumeru.

Therefore, she was always protected by the sages in the Pure Land Palace.

There are even rumors that the Little Lucky Grass King has the intelligence of a child and is not worthy of being the god of wisdom.

All these comments have left Sino feeling suffocated, as he can clearly sense it.

The Tree King held high hopes for her successor, and she seemed eager to know how her successor was doing in Sumeru.

"In the end, there was no escaping it."

Sino sighed; he realized that the truth could no longer be hidden.

With that in mind, Sino posted everything he knew in the chat group. Although it was a bit embarrassing, it was a fact he had to face.

After Seno told everyone in the group about the Sumeru incident and his current predicament, the atmosphere in the group became somewhat subtle.

According to Seno, the current situation of Sumeru cannot be described as bad; rather, it is described as extremely wondrous.

[The Great Tree King: "...So, my successor is now being protected by the sages?"]

[Raiden Shin: "Protection? You call this protection? Five hundred years without a single word."]

[Nagarjuna: "This is imprisonment, isn't it?"]

Wendy: "I never expected this, I never expected that the current Grass God would be imprisoned by his own people."

Wendy: "Is it because your power is too weak? Or because you can't bear to harm your own people?"

[Lei Movie: "To be imprisoned by one's own people for five hundred years is truly pathetic."]

Zhongli: "If that's the case, then Sumeru is probably now dominated by [humans]."

[Gui Zhong: "Human beings are the priority? But this situation... is somewhat different from what I imagined."]

[Yae no Miko: "If we're talking about people, then the current situation is quite normal, especially considering that a certain general is preoccupied with the Pure Land and neglecting his duties."]

[Yae no Miko: "Inazuma is really confused by [people]."]

[Lei Movie: "……………………"]

[Yura: "The same was true for Mondstadt back then."]

[Kuki Shinobu: "But looking at it this way, I understand why Su Hao only dared to come to Sumeru after his strength reached the Demon God Realm."]

Ella: "I understand what the young master meant."

[Coral Palace Heart Sea: "Because the enemy we face this time may not only be the Fools, but also the soldiers led by the Order of the Fathers."]

[Coral Palace Heart Sea: "In other words, the entire Sumeru is our enemy?"]

[Sino: "I'm sorry, but that's certainly the case given the current situation."]

[The Great Compassion Tree King: "………………"]

[Su Hao: "It's not a big problem. The main issue is the attitude of the higher-ups in the Order of the Church, and the sages other than the Great Sage. We need to be clear about that."]

[Su Hao: "If all else fails, as long as we pinpoint the location of the Little Lucky Grass King, Ella and I can storm in and rescue her."]

[Abedo: "Refuse to negotiate, and attack directly?"]

Zhongli: "This plan is feasible."

[Raiden Shin: "But if we do that, the Order of the Teachings will lose face, which would be detrimental to Sumeru."]

[Kizumi: "Yes, even if there are problems with the Kansei and Tenryo magistrates on your Inazuma side, as long as the gods are alright, then everything will be fine."]

[Ke Qing: "But...on the Sumeru side, the Little Auspicious Grass King's voice is weak, while the dominant voice is that of the Great Compassion Tree King."]

[Ella: "In that case, the situation becomes quite delicate. Although the Little Lucky Grass King is the second-generation Grass God, her voice is extremely weak, and the people are unlikely to even acknowledge her existence."]

[Ella: "So even if we rescue the Little Lucky Grass King, we might still be rejected by the Sumeru people."]

Klee: "Wow... Klee doesn't understand, but Klee finds this really troublesome."

Wendy: "Actually, solving this is quite simple; we just need to bring out the Great Tree King."

[Raiden Shin: "Barbatos, that's like saying nothing at all."]

[Raiden Zhen: "If she really comes out, Su Hao won't need to go to Sumeru; she can handle everything herself."]

The Great Compassion Tree King: "Alas, in the end, it was I who sowed the seeds of this disaster."

[The Great Compassionate Tree King: "If I hadn't left in such a hurry back then, Mount Sumeru probably wouldn't be in this state now."]

[Sino: "Lord Tree King, please don't say that. It's those people who have been in high positions for too long that they can't see their place anymore."]

[Sino: "In the name of the Grand Disciplinary Officer, I will absolutely bring these guys to justice!"]

At this moment, Seno was furious. He could feel the Tree King's helplessness and sighs even through the screen.

The benevolent and wise Tree King may have thought that her successor would progress and grow alongside the sages, thus managing Sumeru well.

But now, these arrogant and conceited sages have completely forgotten the teachings of the Tree King.

"I must! I will solve all of this myself!!!" Seno's eyes were filled with determination.
