Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

"It seems to be a success."

At that moment, Qin smiled too.

She never imagined that the dragon scourge that had jeopardized Mondstadt for months could be resolved so 'easily'.

"Thanks to Kyoka."

Qin looked down at the Fruit Wine Lake, which was gently rippling.

She could still see the huge dark shadow reflected on the lake below.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the fathead fish swam leisurely in the water. As if sensing her gaze, a spray of water shot out from under the surface.

Seeing this scene, a bold idea suddenly popped into Qin's mind.

"I wish Kyogre could stay in Mondstadt forever."

Anyway, the fruit wine lake is big enough to accommodate Gaioka.

However, she also knew that the other party came from Liyue, and was the 'little whale' that Ningguang had taken a liking to.

Qin began to ponder this again.

Although Ningguang took a liking to Kyogre, they didn't develop any real relationship; they were at most friends.

However, Gaioka and Mondstadt already have a close connection.

After all, Su Zhe is the messenger of the wind god, and Kyogre is also the wind god's servant to outsiders.

With these two identities, he is practically bound to Mondstadt.

Of course, Qin didn't know that Su Zhe and Wendy's original agreement was that after the dragon disaster was resolved, they would go their separate ways.

But Qin doesn't need to know. Anyway, that's the fact that everyone sees right now, right?

Given this, it seems that Kyogre is closer to Mondstadt, so why give Kyogre to Liyue?

Suddenly Qin felt a jolt, thinking of Ningguang's trust in her, and a look of shame appeared on her face.

Shaking her head, Jean rode the power of the wind towards Mondstadt.

The dragon calamity has just ended, but there's still a ton of follow-up work waiting for her to handle.

the other side.

Within Mondstadt, on the road leading from the outskirts of Springvale to Mondstadt city.

A horse-drawn carriage was parked by the roadside.

Beside the carriage, Secretary Hyakumon rushed over from the direction of the town and said to the woman who was looking towards Mondstadt, "Lady Ningguang, I've found out that there were indeed sea monsters attacking the Fatui here some time ago. It sounds like it was Kyogre."

"I see."

Ningguang nodded slightly, then turned and stepped into the carriage.

"Let's go. The dragon plague in Mondstadt is over, and I should go see my pen pal."

Chapter 17: Two Girls Compete for Kyogre – Mondstadt or Liyue?

"Although the Dragon Disaster is over, its impact has not yet been resolved, and there is still the follow-up to be done. I'll ask everyone to put in their best effort in the coming days."

In the Knights' headquarters, in Jean's office.

The 'performance' has ended, and now the entire city of Mondstadt is filled with cheers.

Dvalin regained his senses, the wind god reappeared, and Mondstadt was now just like when Barbatos led everyone to victory.

However, times have changed, and many things have changed long ago.

One thing is certain: Wendy did not order Dvalin to continue serving as the Guardian of the Four Winds.

In other words, the Wind Dragon of today is no longer the Wind Dragon of Mondstadt, but merely Dvalin.

As for what it will choose to do in the future, that's entirely up to its own will.

Jean vaguely understood Wendy's intention. From Dvalin's perspective, it had already given too much for Mondstadt, and the people of Mondstadt had no right to demand that it continue to protect Mondstadt.

Mondl owes Tvalin.

Qin could only sigh inwardly at this, and she planned to choose a suitable time to announce the news to everyone.

However, she still believes that Dvalin deeply loves the land of Mondstadt.

Perhaps the Mondstadt people can use their own methods to regain the Wind Dragon's trust and build a more solid friendship with him.

Of course, this is not a simple matter, and it will take quite a while.

"Amber, what's the situation with the monsters in the vicinity?"

"Don't worry, I've got my eyes on things," Amber said with a grin. "The QQ people's activities have returned to normal, and the camps are gone."

"The Abyss Order has also disappeared."

Kaiya then said.

"It's just a pity that I can only get the name 'Your Highness' and can't get any more information."

"The Abyss has suffered two defeats, and now that the Wind God has appeared, I think they shouldn't do anything to harm Mondstadt for a while."

“In that case, the post-disaster recovery work can officially begin. The matter of the Fools has already attracted the attention of the other seven countries. Su Zhe suggests that we keep the people locked up for now and wait for the people from the Winter Kingdom to come before we can talk about it.”

With the Fools' influence spreading across the seven kingdoms, some disputes are inevitable.

Now that we've fallen into a trap, other countries won't hesitate to kick us while we're down.

Therefore, Mondstadt doesn't need to do anything. As long as they don't give in, the matter of Winterfell and the Fatui will continue indefinitely.

The longer the commotion lasts, the greater the benefits Mondstadt will gain.

"Oh, right," Qin looked around, "Where's Su Zhe?"

"It looks like he's spraying water at the Fruit Wine Lake. Yura went to find him."

Amber thought for a moment and said, "The Traveller and Paimon went too. I heard Paimon say he wanted to ask him to find Mora in Cider Lake."

Qin: "..."

Why would you send the mighty Wind God's retinue to help you with Mora?

It's only thanks to Paimon that this kind of thing is possible; most people wouldn't even dare to think about it.

What's even more outrageous is that the traveler actually followed along. Good heavens, what were those two thinking?

"In that case, let's proceed with the current plan for now."

Qin waved her hand and said.

"Let me know if there are any problems. Also, Amber, could you please inform the church that the Knights are planning to hold a funeral for Inspector Archie and need their cooperation?"

Amber blinked: "Are you really going to do it?"

Although she wasn't involved in the entire plan, Su Zhe had been secretly asking her to investigate Archie.

If those accusations that caused public outcry or that he colluded with the Fools were made public, Archie would definitely be criticized even more harshly than the QQ people.

Of course, Su Zhe has now taken advantage of all of this.

What's this called? Amber thought of a phrase: to kill someone by destroying their spirit.

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Qin said helplessly, "Su Zhe's idea is to hold it, and to hold it in a grand manner. The bigger the event, the more pressure the fools will feel."

Sometimes, the dead are more useful than the living.

"Okay, then I'll go and talk to the church."

After Amber left, Lisa said with a smile, "You've almost gotten used to saying 'Su Zhe's meaning,' Jean, that's not like you."

"Huh? Really?"

Qin thought about it and realized it did seem to be true, but...

“He makes sense,” Qin explained. “Although I am the acting leader, I am not acting unilaterally. If you have any good suggestions, you can tell me. Besides, Su Zhe is the messenger of the Wind God. His words represent the will of the Wind God, so of course I must obey him.”

"Yes, yes, I was just mentioning it casually, why are you getting so worked up, haha~"

Faced with Lisa's teasing expression, Qin sighed helplessly.

She didn't want to argue with the other person about these things, and moreover, she knew she couldn't possibly win. This Lisa was best at teasing others.

“Don’t blame me for not reminding you,” Lisa suddenly said. “In the end, Mondstadt still depends on us to make our own decisions. The Dragon Plague has exposed many hidden problems, and we need to solve these problems ourselves. There’s also another point.”

"Su Zhe is Kyogre. He's from Liyue. As far as I know, Tianquan, one of the seven stars of Liyue, seems to have a good relationship with him, so..."

Before he finished speaking, a knight appeared at the door.

"Reporting to Commander Jean, a woman named Ningguang has arrived outside. She seems to be one of the Liyue Seven Stars, but she didn't bring any official diplomatic documents. She just said she wants to see you."

Upon hearing this news, both Qin and Lisa were stunned for a moment.

"Hehe~ Look, I was just saying that, and here it is."

A smile appeared in Lisa's eyes.

"This is really interesting. The great Tianquan Star has gone all the way from Liyue. I think it must be more than just a celebration."

Who doesn't know that Tianquan Ningguang can make millions in minutes?

Why would you abandon your work and secretly come to Mondstadt?

"Alright, Lisa, you can go ahead and get busy. I'll take care of things here."

Qin waved her hand helplessly, worried that with Lisa around, things would take an unexpected turn.

Lisa smiled and said, "Okay, I'm right next door. Just call me if you need anything, I can hear you."

"Everything will be alright."

No, it won't.

Watching Lisa leave, Qin silently said to herself, then got up and left the office, walking to the building entrance.

At the bottom of the steps, a tall, silver-haired figure bathed in sunlight looked at Qin with a smile.

"Commander Qin, it's a pleasure to meet you... no, I should say, it's finally time to meet you."
