[According to Kong himself, he was living in the capital of Kanreya when the Seven Gods attacked that city. "Civilians were running and wailing on the streets, dying tragically on the streets. They had no idea what was happening. Water suddenly condensed together and turned into monsters. Plants began to grow wildly and attacked humans. Strong winds raged, lightning and thunder roared, and giant fire dragons and ice birds slaughtered civilians wantonly. Finally, in a meteorite that fell from the sky, the capital of Kanreya was completely turned into ruins."]
[You listened to Sora's description of the miserable conditions in Kanreya and unconsciously clenched your fists. Even though Sora was only simply describing the miserable conditions in Kanreya at that time, you could imagine the despair of the civilians in Kanreya at that time.]
[Seeing your performance, Kong seemed a little surprised. He asked you in confusion why you didn't defend the Seven Gods' actions. Kong had said these words to other people, but most of them regarded him as a lunatic, and some even regarded him as an enemy... That's how he was kicked out of Liyue Harbor.]
[You told Sora that you saw with your own eyes the refugees from Kanreya transform into Hillchoul people, and you speculated that before Kanreya, there was a country built by humans that was destroyed by the Seven Gods.]
[Sora thinks your idea is very interesting, but he has only been in Teyvat for five years and doesn't know much about history, so he can't help you.]
[You ask Sora about his next plan, and he tells you that he plans to go to Mondstadt to wake up his sleeping sister, and then take her to another world.]
[Afterwards, you told Kong about Mondstadt's situation. He expressed his gratitude and told you the road leading directly to the capital of Kanreya. He thought there might be news about other human kingdoms there.]
[The Kingdom of Kanreya is an underground kingdom with a well-developed underground transportation network. Without a dedicated guide, ordinary people may never find the location of the capital of Kanreya. However, I will tell you that to the east of Cape Mond's Oath, there is a group of islands and reefs called Musk Reef, which leads directly to the capital of Kanreya.]
[However, Kong also warned you that the Kingdom of Kanreya had arranged many mechanical guards there. Now that the Kingdom of Kanreya has been destroyed, all the mechanical guards are out of control. I am afraid that the place has become extremely dangerous. He also told you not to go there without the ability to protect yourself. You agreed.]
[Before parting, you wished Kong and his sister a smooth journey to leave this world, and he also wished you to get the answer you wanted, and then you went your separate ways.]
[After saying goodbye to Kong, you felt very heavy-hearted. When you thought of the civilians of Kanria who died in vain under the massacre of the Seven Gods, you felt an indescribable pain in your heart.]
[When you saved a passerby from the monster for the umpteenth time, she screamed and pushed you away and ran away. You were confused until you saw your face reflected in the water while setting up camp to rest. You realized that your murderous face was stained with the monster's blood and had become more hideous than the monster. No wonder the passerby was scared away by you.]
[After cleaning the blood stains on your face, you put on the tin mask that matched the armor. You didn't like wearing the mask because it blocked your vision. But you didn't want others to see your bloody face. After all, the person you rescued would scream and run away... It's enough to experience this kind of self-esteem-injuring thing only once.]
[A month and a half later, you finally overcame numerous difficulties and arrived at Liyue Harbor.]
Chapter 25 My name is Zhong Li. What can I do for you?
[As soon as you enter Liyue Harbor, you become the focus of attention on the street. Wearing silver-white knight armor, you stand out like a crane among chickens as you walk on the streets of Liyue. Soon, a group of Qianyan soldiers find you and ask you why you came to Liyue at this time. ]
[You don't intend to tell me your goal, but say that you are an archaeology enthusiast from Mondstadt. I heard that in order to deal with the monster tide, the immortals of Liyue are mobilized collectively. You have some questions about history that you want to ask the immortals. ]
"Well, after all, immortals are living fossils, so this reason is completely reasonable."
[Sure enough, after listening to your excuse, Qianyanjun just nodded and did not continue to ask. After all, it is difficult to meet immortals. This time, in order to protect Liyue, the immortals appeared collectively. If you are an avid history lover, you may take this opportunity to come to Liyue.]
[Before leaving, the leader of the Qianyan Army kindly reminded you that the immortals are now fighting against the monsters on the front line and are not in Liyue Harbor. If you go to the front line now, you may be able to see the immortals. ]
[Liyue is currently recruiting strong people to form a mercenary army. If you are interested, you can join the mercenary army as an individual. ]
[You nodded to indicate that you understood, and then watched the Qianyan Army leave.]
[You don't plan to meet the Liyue immortals for the time being, but want to look for ancient documents to see if you can find some clues. However, you searched for a long time on the streets of Liyue. Although you found more than one bookstore, you didn't find any historical documents. After asking, you learned that these historical documents were collected and centrally managed by Tianquan Star, one of the seven stars in Liyue. No wonder you couldn't find them on the street.]
[At this point, the clues you were planning to find for ancient documents have been cut off again. Although Tianquan Star is indeed in Liyue Harbor, you are just an ordinary traveler from Mondstadt. They will not allow you to enter a place where important historical documents are stored.]
[At this time, you plan to...]
[1. Go to see Tianquan Star with a try-it attitude.]
[2. As a second choice, join the mercenary group as an individual and see if you can get in touch with the immortals.]
【3. Find another solution.】
"Choose 1. Now that I'm here, why not give it a try?"
"Important plot has been triggered. Entering immersion mode..."
"Hmm? An important plot? Does that mean I made the right choice?"
When Kujo Tsumugi was wondering, the surrounding scenery had turned into the streets of Liyue.
"Trigger the side quest: The truth of history."
"Mission objective: Convince Tianquanxing to let you enter the document room."
"Tip: Tianquan Star, also known as Wenqu Star, is a symbol of intelligence and talent, and is more inclined to poetry and songs. If you have a good poem or quatrain, Tianquan Star will surely be happy to meet you."
"Is there such a meaning in Tianquanxing? Can't anyone become one as long as they have money?"
Kujo Tsumugi couldn't help but think of the real Tianquanxing Ningguang. She could indeed be considered "intelligent and talented", but she was only good at business. She had only a little knowledge of poetry and songs and was not very good at it.
"It seems that Liyue has changed a lot invisibly in these five hundred years." Kujo Tsumugi shook his head and said.
This is not surprising. The god of Liyue is the rock god Morax, a god representing "contract". Under his influence, Liyue gradually became a prosperous commercial country. In Liyue, merchants have the highest status, followed by "scholars" and "workers". The lowest status is farmers. Only some old people who are unwilling to leave the village and losers who fail in business will farm in the countryside.
In this social atmosphere, Mora's position in people's hearts will become more and more important. As for whether you are good at poetry or not, who cares?
Kujo Tsumugi walked on the street while observing the differences between Liyue five hundred years ago and Liyue in reality.
Firstly, since it was during the war, the streets of Liyue were not very busy. Most people were hiding in their homes waiting for the end of the war. The houses were shorter and more dilapidated than five hundred years later, and the prices were much cheaper than five hundred years later.
Kujo Tsumugi asked several passers-by and learned that the day's wage for working at the dock here was 8,000 Mora, which was enough for the family to eat and drink well and save some money.
I remember that in reality, the wages of dock workers in Liyue were 10,000 a day, which means that with such severe inflation, the daily wages of workers only increased by 2,000 Mora in 500 years? !
Upon learning of this, Kujo Tsumugi took a deep breath.
The extent of this wage increase... the capitalists are ecstatic.
It seems that our ancestors' policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce still makes sense.
Kujo Tsumugi sighed for a moment, then walked into a shop and bought some paper and brushes.
The task prompt has already mentioned that Tianquan likes poetry and songs. With Kujo Tsumugi's current financial resources, she certainly can't afford them, but she doesn't have to buy them.
Just kidding, all those ancient poems I memorized in junior high and high school are engraved in my DNA. Why not write a poem myself?
Kujo Tsumugi's hand holding the brush moved fluently, and soon, a poem "Song of the Prefect of Yanmen" from his previous life was born on paper. Of course, Kujo Tsumugi also made some minor modifications to the calligraphy, changing the "half-rolled red flag is overlooking the Yishui River" in the third sentence to "half-rolled red flag is overlooking the Lushui River".
"Lu Shui" refers to the Luhua Pond in Liyue. Now the battle line between the Qianyan Army and the monster tide is in the south of the Luhua Pond, so the modification made by Kujo Tsumabuki is appropriate.
After the ink on the paper dried, Kujo Tsumugi took the written ancient poem to the official residence of Tenquan Star.
"Hello, I am a traveler from Mondstadt. I have something important to discuss with Lord Tianquan. This is the gift I brought to Lord Tianquan." Then, Kujo Tsumugi handed the ancient poem in his hand to the Qianyan Army guard at the door, and stuffed him with a thousand Moras. "This is just a small gift and I am not showing my respect. Please pass it on to me, Brother Qianyan Army."
"Okay, wait here for a moment." Qianyan Jun said at the door, and then went into the official residence to ask Tianquan for instructions.
Not long after, the Qianyan Army appeared again.
"It's Miss Tsumugi, Lord Tianquan wants to see you."
Following Qianyan Army, Kujo Tsumugi soon arrived at Tianquan's room.
When she opened the door, she saw a tall woman with long black hair flowing like a waterfall and wearing a light brown cheongsam standing beside the table. On the table was the ancient poem "Song of the Prefect of Yanmen" that Kujo Tsumugi had just given her.
Hearing the sound, the tall woman turned around with a faint smile on her lips, but when Kujo Tsumugi saw the tall woman for the first time, her whole body stiffened.
"Hello, traveler from Mondstadt. I am Tianquan, one of the seven stars of Liyue. You can call me... Zhongli."
Chapter 26 Miss Zhong Li's Proposal
Rumor has it that Liyue's god, Geo Emperor, has tens of millions of incarnations, and that Geo Emperor often uses different incarnations to wander the mortal world.
Originally, Tsumugi Kujo always thought that this was a rumor. After all, Zhongli's image in the game has always been a man. Except for the Qilin incarnation who pretended to die at the Summoning Immortals Ceremony, Tsumugi Kujo had never seen any other incarnations of Emperor Geo. Over time, she almost forgot about this matter.
I never expected to see other incarnations of Zhongli in this way in The Sims...
By the way, the Thousand Winds Army is clearly fighting a tide of monsters right now, so why are you disguised as Tianquan and staying in Liyue Harbor?
I originally thought that Tianquan was just an NPC, but I didn't expect him to become one of the Seven Gods.
Kujo Tsumugi felt like she wanted to cry but had no tears, but she still managed a smile and said, "Hello, Miss Zhong Li, you can just call me Tsumugi."
"Hello, Miss Tsumugi." Zhong Li nodded, "Excuse me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Actually... I am a history enthusiast. I came to Liyue this time to find some historical documents to verify some of my conjectures."
"I see. But there's no need to go to so much trouble, Ms. Tsumugi. If it's a historical issue, I know a thing or two about it. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly."
"This……"
After hearing what Zhong Li said, Kujo Tsumugi hesitated for a long time, but decided to ask Zhong Li.
"It's like this... I want to know, before the Kingdom of Kanreya, was there a godless country established by humans like Kanreya?"
"It does exist." Zhong Li answered without even thinking. The existence of this kingdom is not a secret. As long as you look carefully, you can always find clues in various historical documents.
"That country... was called Shar Fendnier. It was at the end of the Demon War. At that time, the Fendnier people successfully established a country with the help of Kanreya. Later, due to some reasons, the Fendnier country was destroyed."
"Now that I think about it, it was from that time that the Kingdom of Kanreya began to embark on the path of militarism."
"I want to ask what caused the demise of that country."
"..."
Hearing this, Zhong Li fell silent.
The existence of the law of nature must never be known to the common people, so Zhong Li had no way to explain to Kujo Tsumugi the reason for the demise of Findnir.
"Sorry, I can't tell."
Zhong Li could only use this sentence to get away with it.
"Ms. Zhong Li, please, this is really important to me!"
Of course, Kujo Tsumugi knew that Findenir was destroyed by Heaven's Law, and she also knew that the existence of Heaven's Law should not be known to ordinary people, but she has always been worried about one thing.
The destruction of Kanreya can be said to be due to their own unauthorized use of the power of the abyss, but what mistake did Findenir make? Why did this group of people struggling to survive in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountains lead to the destruction of their country by the law of nature?
"If Miss Zhong Li doesn't want to talk about it, please let me look into the historical documents myself. I really want to figure this out."
"...Okay." After a long silence, Zhong Li finally decided to allow Kujo Tsumugi to consult the documents. "But I'm afraid you will be disappointed, because those documents do not record the reasons for the demise of the Findenir country."
"It's okay, I'll keep looking!"
Great! Side quest completed!
Kujo Tsumugi cheered in her heart.
Afterwards, Zhong Li brought Kujo Tsumugi to the room where historical documents were stored. Kujo Tsumugi also read some records about Findnir, and the side quest was successfully completed.
"Side quest: The truth of history is completed. The reward will be increased by one when the simulation system is settled."
"Exiting immersive mode..."
[Just when you were about to leave, Zhong Li suddenly asked you a question, why did you want to find out the reason for the demise of the Fendnier Kingdom.]
[After much hesitation, you still told Zhong Li about what you witnessed with your own eyes, that the refugees from Kanreya were transformed into hill people, because the feeling she gave you was obviously different from the others. Miss Zhong Li was well-informed and calm, so if it was her, it would be okay to tell others, right? With this in mind, you told Zhong Li what you saw.]
[Sure enough, Miss Zhong Li did not show any surprise after hearing this. She just said calmly, "So that's how it is." Then he proposed a deal to you.]
[You have to help Liyue set up an intelligence department to investigate the movements of other countries. In exchange, Miss Zhongli promises to tell you everything you want to know, but you must swear never to tell these things to others in any way.]
[You asked Miss Zhong Li why she wanted to set up an intelligence department, but she just shook her head and said that she could only tell you if you agreed. In the end, you couldn't resist your curiosity and agreed to Zhong Li's deal. Then Miss Zhong Li also revealed to you the tip of the iceberg of the secrets of this world.]
[A year ago, the Seven Gods descended upon the Kingdom of Kanreya and brought down an unjust divine punishment on it, but the Kingdom of Kanreya was not without the power to resist.]
[The God of Grass and the former God of Thunder, Baal, died directly in that battle, but the Seven Gods suffered far more damage than that. For the gods, the destruction of Kanria caused far more mental damage to them than physical damage.]
[After destroying the Kingdom of Kanreya, the water god who represented "justice" had mental problems. Currently, Fontaine was in a mess because of the water god. The most powerful pure water spirit in Fontaine, Lotia, directly defected from Fontaine and is currently missing.]
[The situation in Nata is not optimistic either. The God of Fire advocates "war" but does not like massacres, so he feels very guilty for destroying the Kingdom of Kanreya with his own hands. Although there is no problem at present, the God of Fire has been in a state of depression, which has also made some restless forces in Nata ready to make a move. ]
[But what Zhong Li is most worried about is the Ice Queen who represents "kindness."]
[At present, everything is normal in the Kingdom of Winter... But this is the most abnormal situation. Logically speaking, even if the Ice God who participated in the massacre does not have mental problems like the Water God, he should at least be depressed for a period of time like the Fire God.]
[But from the surface, there is nothing unusual about the Kingdom of Winter. Zhong Li is very worried about this, fearing that the Ice God is secretly planning something. Therefore, she hopes that you can help establish an intelligence organization in Liyue to gather information about the Kingdom of Winter and protect Liyue.]
"This intelligence organization... should be Ningguang's intelligence network, right?"
Kujo Tsumugi narrowed his eyes slightly and guessed.
Obviously, the original intention of its establishment was to protect Liyue, but it was used by Ningguang as a source of intelligence for business... Haha, he is really worthy of being a businessman.
Chapter 27 The First Member
[Although you promised Zhong Li to set up an intelligence organization for Liyue, you have never had such experience, so you are completely in the dark and don't know anything. After thinking about it, you think the first batch of subordinates should be selected from those trustworthy people in the Qianyan Army, so you proposed that you go to the front line, and Zhong Li immediately agreed. ]
[With the help of Zhong Li, you became a team leader on the front line, with thirty Qianyan soldiers under you. Soon, you led your team to join the battlefield on the front line, and you finally witnessed the power of the immortal with your own eyes. ]
[For example, the crane who is good at using various mechanisms, He uses a fairy mechanism called the Returning Machine, which can cause a large number of monsters to be killed or injured every time. Another example is a girl with blue hair and black and red horns on her head. She can use fairy magic to enhance the power of the Qianyan Army, allowing them to effectively kill monsters. There is also a masked dwarf who holds a spear wrapped in violent wind elements, and no monster is spared wherever he passes. ]
[You are amazed by the strength of the immortals, but you quickly regain your senses and return your gaze to the battlefield.]
