Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

"Heh, that's right, but I don't know if she'll actually do it."

After hearing this, D'Artagnan did not intend to say anything. He waved his hand and said, "Tell the servant not to forget to invite the Celestial Ritual Master. If there are any changes, I will communicate with her immediately."

"The summoning ceremony is approaching, and I don't want any unexpected events to occur. Do you understand? What if this operation fails?"

"Then I will tell Her Majesty the Queen that even Arecino will be in deep trouble."

At this point, D'Artagnan's gaze sharpened, and a terrifying aura emanated from him; he was not joking.

The ritual of inviting immortals is very important, and he doesn't want anything to go wrong during it.

Ningguang was worried about something going wrong during the invocation ceremony, so she sent people to keep a close eye on the Fatui. Tartaglia was well aware of this, but no one else knew...

The Fools also did not want the ritual of summoning the immortals to go wrong, because if something happened to the ritual, the plan would likely undergo unimaginable changes.

Tartaglia dislikes variables, especially when he has made so many preparations that the Rock King Emperor must make his appearance.

Only with his appearance can the subsequent series of plans proceed smoothly. There are only a few days left before the ceremony to invite the immortals begins.

D'Artagnan summoned the Thunderfire Sorcerer sisters, intending to use them to give the servant a warning and make her aware of the seriousness of the situation.

The Queen's wrath is no small matter.

"Understood." X2

Upon hearing Her Majesty the Queen's reproach, the Thunderfire Sorcerer sisters became serious and promised to pass on the message.

Compared to the Executor, Her Majesty the Empress's will is supreme.

At the winter solstice, Her Majesty the Empress ranks first, the Executive Officer ranks second, and everyone else can basically be ignored.

"Alright, you can go now. Just pass on my message."

D'Artagnan didn't want to repeat himself any longer; he had other things to do, so he didn't keep the Thunderfire Sorcerer sisters.

The two lightning sorcerer sisters also left quickly, intending to pass the message on to their servant.

After they left, D'Artagnan sat silently in the Northern Bank, pondering whether there were any flaws in her plan.

The plan was perfect in theory, but for some reason, Dadalia felt uneasy, as if something big was about to happen during the invocation ceremony.

This is the intuition of a warrior. Although D'Artagnan felt that his plan was 'perfect', as the saying goes, even the most meticulous plans can have flaws.

"Honestly, how many times have I seen plans go awry?"

D'Artagnan chuckled self-deprecatingly, then stood up and called out to the outside, "Someone come here!"

Several debt collectors immediately strode in from the doorway. They knelt on one knee before D'Artagnan and said earnestly, "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Where is Mr. Zhongli?" D'Artagnan asked directly. He wanted to see Mr. Zhongli. The more uneasy he felt, the more he wanted to see him.

It's not that I want to find reassurance from the other party, but rather that I want to have a backup plan for myself, so that if anything goes wrong with the plan, I can activate the backup plan.

Mr. Zhongli provided him with a lot of valuable information, although you can't always take advantage of one person.

But there's nothing we can do; most of the capable people in Liyue have grievances against the Fatui, and things are different now than before.

D'Artagnan had no choice but to go to Mr. Zhongli and ask him for help in solving her problem.

A debt collector stepped forward and reported, "According to intelligence, Mr. Zhongli and Master Hu of the Rebirth Hall have gone to handle some matters."

"They are not in Liyue Harbor now, and we don't know exactly where they went."

The debt collector sounded somewhat helpless, because the Liyue authorities were keeping a close eye on them now, and the Fatui could no longer gather information anytime, anywhere as easily as before.

Instead, we have to go through certain events to deduce the general information, and even then, the information is not accurate.

"Something happened at this crucial moment?" D'Artagnan was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Mr. Zhongli would have to go out at this critical juncture.

This is truly rare. Tartaglia has been in Liyue Harbor for quite some time and knows that the elders rarely die during the Summoning Ceremony.

Or rather... during the period of the summoning ceremony, almost no one went to die; everyone tacitly agreed to it.

If we're going to die, we should wait until after the invocation ceremony to die together, so as to put a little pressure on the Hall of Rebirth.

Before this, it was practically impossible for Wangshengtang to achieve any results.

However, now that Mr. Zhongli and Master Hu have gone out, it means... something has happened to someone outside Liyue Harbor?

It's unclear whether it's the work of a ghost or someone has passed away.

If it's the work of a ghost, Mr. Zhongli will probably be back tonight; if someone has passed away, he'll probably have to wait until the day of the spirit-summoning ceremony to return.

Because the two situations are completely different, ghostly disturbances can be resolved on the same day.

If someone dies, the series of complicated matters would be enough to keep Mr. Zhongli there until everything is finished before he can return.

"Yes." The debt collector nodded seriously. He was clearly surprised that something would happen at the Rebirth Hall at this critical juncture.

"Never mind, let's leave Mr. Zhongli for now. Report any news about him to me immediately."

Tartaglia rubbed his temples and asked, "Besides that, is there anything else going on in Liyue Harbor? If not, pack your things and we'll go collect a debt."

The situation is so boring right now that D'Artagnan wants to collect the debts himself to vent his frustration.

After all, when faced with debt collection from the Northern Bank, there will always be someone who tries to resist, and that's when he'll have to step in.

Even if someone is in Liyue and maliciously refuses to pay their debts, it's okay to use violence.

Another debt collector stepped forward and, looking at D'Artagnan, continued, "And, young master, it's said that someone from the General Affairs Department is causing trouble again."

"Should we go and deal with this? Because the Liyue Merchant Guild, for some unknown reason, has teamed up to report a series of minor issues we have."

"I'm afraid these things will affect your plans, sir."

The debt collector's voice was very calm. It was normal for the Northern Bank, as the source of funding for the Fools, to attract hostility from others by being based in Liyue Harbor.

“This matter should be left to the rich man… never mind, I’ll go to the General Affairs Department myself.” D’Artagnan had intended to say that this kind of thing should be handled by the rich man’s subordinates.

It's perfectly normal to leave matters concerning Mora to experts.

However, D'Artagnan soon remembered something and decided to go to the General Affairs Department himself.

"Is there anything your subordinates need to do?" The debt collector couldn't help but ask as he saw D'Artagnan preparing to set off personally.

The debt collectors who came in immediately focused their attention on D'Artagnan.

They were all D'Artagnan's confidants and knew that D'Artagnan was going to do something big at the Summoning Ceremony. As for what it was, they had some guesses.

It's highly likely they'll target Morax, one of the Seven Gods.

Is the plan about to begin?! People are getting excited about the debt settlement; this is a great opportunity to show loyalty to the Queen.

"No, no need. You can just do your own thing. I'll go out now."

D'Artagnan said nothing. He strode out, left the Northern Bank, and headed towards the General Affairs Department.

He wasn't just going to the General Affairs Department; he wanted to use it to meet Ningguang and gain the right to freely enter and leave Liyue Harbor.

If Ningguang doesn't agree, then don't blame him for making the other party's workload increase before the Immortal Invocation Ceremony!

Chapter 419 Linnie and Lynette

In an unnamed inn in Liyue Harbor, a servant named Arecino was drinking tea, her expression remarkably calm.

Her two subordinates have also returned. The two Thunderfire Sorcerer sisters are kneeling on one knee, reporting on what just happened at the Northern Bank.

"Is that what you said, young master?"

Arecino wasn't surprised, or rather, the further the plan progressed, the more careful she had to be.

To be honest, Arecino really admires D'Artagnan's personality; he's reckless most of the time, but incredibly reliable when it matters.

This changed her opinion of D'Artagnan somewhat; within the Fatui Enforcers, D'Artagnan's reputation wasn't particularly good.

The other party is a well-known martial arts fanatic who wants to fight no matter what he does; he's either on his way to a fight or on his way to a fight.

Although being able to fight is a must to become an executive officer of the Fools, it is because if you can't fight, you can't get into the executive officer position.

But then another problem arises: simply being good at fighting isn't enough to become an executive officer; one also needs to be quick-witted.

Although the soldier seemed brainless, he was actually very efficient. If he hadn't encountered the prodigy Su Hao, he wouldn't have suffered so many setbacks.

However... all of D'Artagnan's efforts are now in vain.

It can't be said that he was useless, because his performance was able to satisfy the Geo God, complete the contract between the Queen and the Geo God, and thus obtain the Heart of the Geo God.

Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on Arecino's lips. She was quite looking forward to seeing how interesting Tadalia's expression would be at that time.

"Yes." X2

The two lightning sorcerers nodded, indicating that this was indeed what the young master had said.

"If that's the case, then it's fine. After all, I don't intend to get involved in this matter." Arecino didn't bother to say anything more.

Liyue is a mess. Tartaglia has been sending her subordinates away from Liyue Harbor on multiple occasions. She knows exactly what her purpose is.

Their purpose was naturally to disperse the forces of the Thousand Rock Army and the military forces of Liyue Harbor; their random actions would inevitably attract the attention of some people.

Arecino, as the executive officer of the Fools, was well aware that his organization's reputation and credibility were practically nonexistent.

As the ritual to invite the immortals drew near, the foolish crowd suddenly began to act, and everyone felt that there must be something fishy about it.

But even if they knew, what could they do? Ningguang and the other seven members of Liyue would never guess that Tartaglia was so crazy as to want to release two Daedric Princes.

Restricting the actions of the Fools is useless; it is necessary to restrict Tadalia and her actions.

The Liyue Septate doesn't have the authority to restrict the Fatui Enforcers' actions; only the Geo Archon can do so.

However, the problem is... this plan was orchestrated by the Rock King, so Arecino remained calm and planned to wait quietly for the Summoning Ceremony to arrive.

At this moment, however, the two lightning sorcerers looked somewhat hesitant.

This puzzled Arecino. She looked at her two subordinates and said, "You seem to have some doubts."

"Excuse my intrusion, my lord," a lightning mage bowed her head, her voice earnest, "Are we really not going to do anything?"

Yes, the Thunderfire Sorcerer expressed her doubts. As a member of the Winter Fools, she had been watching the young master's series of actions.

She knew very well what plan the young master was carrying out; he even brought up the Empress to subtly warn the servant not to do anything unnecessary.

However, the Thunderfire Sorcerer, who knew the servant's abilities, felt that the servant shouldn't be so comfortable right now.

Although the executive officers don't get along particularly well, they should work together for Her Majesty's plans.

As the Thunderfire Sorcerer sisters who once followed the Lady, they also knew that the Lady was constantly cursing the three masters: the Young Master, the Scatter Soldier, and the Doctor.
