I'm not feeling right when I transform into Keqing

"And what they will eventually summon is something terrifying, something from the abyss."

After Lisa finished her guess, Qin's face became serious, while Keqing raised her eyebrows.

"But I didn't see anything 'horrible' when I entered the seal."

"Maybe it has left there, or gone somewhere else. There is more than one layer of seal, so it may not be able to escape." Lisa said. She was just guessing.

"But I'm also curious about how you brought Jean back so quickly." Lisa looked at Keqing.

Before Keqing could speak, Qin answered, "It's a colorful cloud."

One more chapter

Chapter 25. When will you get married?

"Colorful auspicious clouds? What is that?"

Lisa expressed her sincere doubts. Although the witch's mood often changes, she was really confused this time.

Lisa has read thousands of books from ancient times to the present, but this is the first time she has heard this word.

"Well, it's nothing, just a sword technique." Keqing said immediately.

To Keqing, having these made-up words spoken out in a serious manner and having to discuss their authenticity was like performing the Yunlai sword technique in slow motion.

She began to feel that she had made the wrong choice by feeding the elixir to Qin Duo. She had originally intended to target her, but now she was targeting herself.

After Qin Ben became the acting group leader, he always considered what he said.

Now I say whatever I think, I have no control over it.

Keqing was even a little afraid that she would reveal things about her childhood.

"The monsters in the seal are indeed difficult to deal with." Keqing continued: "As for Lisa's guess, I think the same thing."

"That relic hunter looks different from the one wandering around in the wild outside. It's a lot newer. It might have been summoned as well."

After Keqing said this, Qin on the bed nodded slightly: "Indeed, the strength of the Ruin Hunter is much stronger, and the blade is extremely sharp. I also tried my best to restrain it for a few seconds, and I gained the opportunity to cast the teleportation array for Wendy."

"By the way, besides Lady Wendy, who are the other two people?" Qin asked Lisa.

"You mean the stranger and her pet?"

"Well, but that little thing is not her pet." Qin said.

Lisa had no interest in other people's pets, but she knew that Jean valued her companions, and since they were going with her, she had to ensure their safety.

"Sir Wendy appeared directly above Mondstadt. According to what you said, he must have been teleported here. He didn't see the stranger. The situation must have been very critical at the time. The transmission may have been disturbed."

As a professional scholar, Lisa is also proficient in the research of teleportation magic: "But since they have all entered the teleportation array, they must have been teleported to somewhere. If it is Mondstadt, it's okay. I will ask Amber and the others to look for it. If it is Xumi or even Zhidong, then... it will be difficult to deal with."

Although Lisa said this in an optimistic tone, it can actually be understood as missing or: "unknown whether alive or dead."

Qin blamed herself: "It's all my fault. If I hadn't decided to go back, this wouldn't have happened."

Qin started to take responsibility again, and Lisa didn't know what to say. Usually she could enlighten her with humorous words, but this matter was indeed very serious.

Venti was seriously injured, the seal of the Wind Dragon Ruins was disturbed, and the life and death of the stranger who helped Mond suppress the Wind Dragon was unknown.

“How about I go back and ask someone to look for him in Liyue?” Keqing said at this time.

Qin nodded and described the stranger's appearance.

At this moment, a voice appeared in Shi Qing's mind.

[Accepted the side quest: Firefly in the Wind]

Keqing was quite surprised that a side quest was actually triggered.

Could it be that the ordinary stranger was not so ordinary?

"That traveler helped Mondstadt a lot. I hope she is safe." Jyn said, and then she looked at Keqing: "By the way, was there no one else in the seal at that time?"

"other people?"

"It's Vanessa, huh? How come I..." Qin wanted to be more tactful, but strangely she said it unconsciously.

“You’re hallucinating,” Keqing said.

Recalling the scene before she lost consciousness, Qin frowned slightly: "But... I saw the flames, such a raging fire... It looks like it can only be produced by a very strong fire element."

"Then I guess it's the God of Fire?" Keqing guessed.

Lisa, who was standing by, laughed again when she heard their conversation, but she also felt that she needed to prove something to Keqing.

"Aqin, what you said is very sad. At that time, Lord Keqing braved the heavy rain and rushed to the ruins of Fenglong. He even forgot to take a handy weapon."

Qin also realized that she had gone a bit too far and shouldn't have said such words questioning someone saving her.

"sorry."

The apology was straightforward. Keqing curled her lips and said, "It's okay. I'm not at a disadvantage anyway."

Although this may seem a bit arrogant to Lisa, Keqing is actually not at a disadvantage.

The reward was real, and if she hadn't gone to rescue Qin, she wouldn't even have known that there was a dungeon in the Wind Dragon Ruins.

"I have to go find Albedo later to check on the seal of the Wind Dragon Ruins." Qin said to herself, "Alchemy may be able to find some differences, but he seems to be sketching in a foreign country. He said before that he was going to the snowy mountains. I don't know if he has noticed anything unusual in Mondstadt. Come back soon."

"As for the matter concerning Lady Wendy, I wonder if it should be kept secret..."

As Qin was talking, she suddenly realized that several eyes were staring at her.

When she looked up, she saw Noelle holding a teacup with her mouth slightly open, and Lisa looking at her with a puzzled look.

"What's wrong?" Qin asked.

"Noelle, while Lady Keqing's team physician is still in Mondstadt, go ask that doctor to get some herbs."

"Okay, I'll go right away." The maid nodded and put down the teacup immediately.

"Just say I asked you to go and grab some nourishing food to relax your mind." Keqing also echoed at this time.

Qin didn't quite understand what they were doing, but she had something to say in her heart.

"Lisa, I just remembered that there are people in the church who can be mobilized. I have to go back to the church and ask them to mobilize some people. If the anomaly occurs again and something is summoned directly, we can be prepared to deal with it."

"I see." Lisa nodded. Qin was quite clear about such a big issue. It seemed to be just a minor problem.

Lisa stood up and said, "I'll leave first, and you can have a good rest here."

"I'll go back to the Knights with you," Qin said, but this time Lisa stopped her before she could lift the quilt.

She pushed Qin back onto the bed: "Have a good rest, at least until you stop talking nonsense."

"Nonsense?" Why did it sound like she was sick? Qin felt that she was normal.

"Then I have said everything I need to say. I will return to the Knights now." Lisa looked at Keqing and said, "Jean will stay with you for a day or two until she is in better condition. I am sorry to trouble you, my Lord."

"Yeah." Keqing smiled fleetingly.

Lisa put the chair back next to the table and walked towards the door, but just as she was about to go out, she suddenly stopped.

She suddenly remembered something, a cunning light flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Turning back at the door, she looked at Qin on the bed and Keqing beside the bed and said, "Look at my memory. Alas, I almost forgot to ask an important question, which is..."

"When will you get married?"

Chapter 26. The biggest crisis since coming to Mond

"Ah, little Noelle is back so soon? No need to send him in, just leave him at the front desk. It's okay. Lady Keqing is here. Are you still worried about Captain Jean? By the way, come back to the Knights with me. I need your help with something. Don't worry, come back tomorrow. You are still young and need enough sleep..."

Lisa's smiling face and Noelle's puzzled voice faded away outside the door, but there was silence inside.

Qin Fu rubbed his temple and said apologetically: "Lisa sometimes speaks without restraint like this, don't take it too seriously."

Keqing agreed: "Indeed."

After finishing speaking, Qin looked at her hands again, muttering words like "strange, magical", probably thinking about what happened in the seal again.

At this time, Keqing took advantage of this free time to check the tasks she had received before.

The description of the side quest of the stranger "Firefly in the Wind" is very simple, which is to find a person named "Ying" in the copy of the God-Extinguishing Steps.

"Ying" is probably the name of the lost stranger, which means she should still be alive and still within the seal.

There is no rush for this, although we will definitely have to go to the Wind Dragon Ruins again.

But Keqing doesn't have the pressure of saving anyone this time, so naturally she has to make adequate preparations first.

After all, Keqing was not very familiar with the stranger, so she was not so anxious. And according to Lisa and the others, she must have some skills to be able to help Mond suppress the Wind Dragon, and she would not die so easily.

However, when it comes to the description of another important main quest, "The Time of Riding the Wind", Keqing is a little confused.

"Convince Jean to return the engagement."

Keqing almost laughed out loud. Isn't this a free gift?

She thought that the first main storyline was to go to the "teaching level" copy of the level 95 monster to rescue people, and the difficulty would definitely become more and more abnormal later.

But I didn’t expect that the second one was just a free gift.

Keqing said a long time ago that she knew Jyn very well. As a knight named Dandelion, Jyn would definitely reprimand Lisa, Little Barbara and other gangs for their despicable tactics, and then return them personally and apologize.

However, their tricks may actually be considered an "assist".

Qin's "military advisors" actually didn't know that the decision to cancel the engagement was not just a whim on Keqing's part.

It was something that had been decided a long time ago.

If you ask how long it has been, it was probably when Keqing was able to wield a longsword. That was decided when she came to Mondstadt to compete with Jean.

Jean developed very early both physically and mentally, and so did Keqing.

One person yearns for freedom, the other person dislikes the old rules.

The two hit it off immediately.

All they need to do now is to put on a show with outsiders.

Originally, Keqing planned to play the villain and propose to cancel the wedding, fulfilling her promise in a simple and crude way.

However, the theft of the marriage certificate gave her another relatively mild solution.

When Qiqi returned the apology, Keqing could say that she wanted to cancel the engagement because she "could not tolerate such despicable tricks that insulted her".

Not only can it give Jean a way out and pass the blame to her subordinates or Liyue, Jean can also give a proper explanation to the management of the Knights of the Cross. It will also be easier for Keqing to explain herself by returning to Liyue, and she can go back and tell her parents and family that this was all caused by Mondstadt's humiliating behavior.

After all, it turned out that both of them were not wrong, and Qin not only defeated these lawless subordinates, but also successfully broke off the engagement.

With Qin's intelligence, it is impossible for her not to think of this result of killing two birds with one stone.

So Keqing never worried about losing the marriage certificate.

Keqing felt comfortable when she thought that after this matter was over, she would not have to think about the engagement all day long, and after investigating the seal, she could return to Liyue to continue her own business.

Liyue is still better, there aren’t so many weird people and things.

But she was busy after she returned.

You know, although Liyue has seven stars, she is the only one who really has time to handle affairs.

Oh no, there's one more.

However, as for the other Seven Stars who is still in Liyue, in Keqing's eyes he is just a nouveau riche who only thinks about making money every day but is obviously already very rich.

Not worth mentioning.

"You will probably be able to get out of bed and walk tomorrow, so let's get down to business then, shall we?" After understanding the mission, Keqing's expression became unusually relaxed.

"Ah?!" Qin was shocked by Keqing's words.
