Seeker of Teyvat

There is only losing and no winning.

Therefore, Ying was not worried at all whether the Fatui's hidden players would be fooled.

Because she’s playing a game she can’t lose.

Paimon nodded, not quite understanding: "Oh, so that's how it is."

The two walked through the sandstorm, and gradually, an ancient building appeared in front of them.

Most of the damaged buildings have been covered by sand.

However, Ying still smiled, and the magic bottle beside her glowed slightly, indicating that this was her destination.

"Come on, Paimon, let's go over there and rest for a while, get some food, and wait for the Fatui people."

I looked behind me at the traces I had left intentionally. Although there was wind and sand blowing, they were still vaguely distinguishable.

Ying smiled and took Paimon to the spirit shrine area.

at the same time,

On the road with traces left by the fireflies,

Five people, still dressed as scholars, followed the traces and chased after them.

"The fact that the traveler didn't care about the traces left behind means that she didn't know about our existence. Our identities are still safe."

"Be careful and don't reveal your true identity. We are scholars who are here to investigate Zhen Ling. Don't forget this."

"Don't worry, we are not rookies anymore. We won't make such a low-level mistake."

Communicating in low voices,

The five scholars have already seen the remains of the spiritual shrine not far away.

They stopped, looked at each other, then pretended to be trudging along and began to approach.

In the town spirit shrine,

Ying was not in a hurry to suppress the sandstorm, but took out the pot and started cooking.

In the ruins, I am not affected by the sandstorm at all, so it is a good time to cook.

Paimon rubbed his hands beside Ying, seeming very excited.

Ying was processing the ingredients, then her ears moved slightly and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Paimon, people are coming, don't show off."

At the side, Paimeng's eyes lit up: "Finally they're here, hehehe, don't worry, we don't know what the hidden players are, we just suspect that there is something wrong with them."

"Yes, that's right, that's it." Ying nodded with satisfaction.

As he was speaking, there were obvious footsteps coming from outside.

Then there were more shouts.

"Traveler, traveler, are you there?"

Ying and Paimon looked at each other, and Paimon said, "Who is it? We are here."

After Paimon's voice was heard, footsteps immediately approached.

Ying's face immediately darkened, and she shouted, "Paimeng, how can you expose your position in the wild?"

Several figures poked their heads out from the gap in the ruins.

"Traveler, traveler, don't scold Lord Paimon. It's us. We were sent by Lord Senor to investigate the town spirits. We are not bad people."

The scholars smiled and started to excuse the gang members and explained their purpose.

Ying frowned slightly, but still nodded: "Okay, I forgive you, Paimon, but don't speak so casually next time. The people who came this time are our own people, what if they are enemies?"

Paimon lowered his head, seeming a little sad: "Okay, I get it, don't be angry."

The corners of her mouth twitched and she seemed about to cry.

Ying gave her a displeased look, knowing that if she continued acting, the little girl would laugh.

He turned to look at the scholars and nodded in a friendly manner: "Since you are sent by Seno, then come and have dinner with us. It just so happens that I have cooked a lot."

The scholars were stunned for a moment, then they saw the stove on the open space of the ruins, and a wisp of fragrance wafted to their noses.

After swallowing their saliva, the scholars looked at the leader.

The scholar with ordinary face looked at the stove. They were indeed a little hungry after going out.

After thinking about it, they wanted to launch a surprise attack on the traveler. If I rejected their invitation, what if they became alert?

So, the leading scholar nodded and said to Ying gratefully: "I'm a little hungry, so we won't be polite."

As they spoke, the scholars approached the stove.

Ying also smiled: "Don't be polite, we are all friends, eat more."

Paimon seemed to have recovered from the sadness of being scolded just now: "Yes, yes, thank you for speaking up for me just now. Eat more, eat more."

The scholars did not suspect anything and took the bowl and chopsticks handed to them by Ying and started to eat.

Looking at the way the scholars ate, Ying knew that they were indeed a little hungry, so a happy smile appeared on Ying's face.

After swallowing the delicious food in his mouth, the leading scholar was a little surprised: "Traveler, why don't you eat?"

Ying smiled and said, "Because there is medicine in it."

Scholars: ?????

Before they could show any horror on their faces, they felt their limbs losing strength, and the bowls and chopsticks in their hands fell to the ground while shaking.

"Traveler, what do you mean?" The leader controlled the expression on his face and shouted to Ying with forced calmness.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, and why Ying drugged them directly.

Also, when was the medicine administered?

It can't be that I cooked this meal just to drug them, right?

Ying showed a hint of sarcasm: "What do I mean? I want to ask, who are you?"

"We are the scholars sent by Lord Seno to investigate the town spirits." The five people lying on the ground shouted.

Ying glanced at them with disdain: "You five scholars came through the sandstorm to investigate the town spirit, and Seno didn't even give you guards? Do you think I'm stupid or is Seno stupid?"

After saying that, ignoring the five stunned people, Ying walked to the side of the Spirit-Suppressing Branch. The magic bottle beside him turned, and the power of Lilupal appeared again.

The authority of the Great Town Spirit and the Town Spirit Branch intertwined, and an inexplicable force swept across the area.

Outside the ruins, the howling sandstorm began to calm down.

The sandstorm was suppressed.

"Ying, what should they do?"

Ying frowned slightly: "Although I don't know who these people are, I can't just leave them here."

As he spoke, he took out a flare and handed it to Paimon.

"This is the flare that Seno gave me. Take it out and set it off. Let's wait for Seno to send someone over."

"Okay, leave it to me." Paimon took the thing, nodded, and flew out of the ruins.

On the ground, the five hidden players were staggering here and there, their hearts almost breaking down.

They never expected that they would fail because of the lack of guards.

Looking at the regretful expressions of the hidden players, a smile flashed in Ying's eyes.

The feeling of playing with open cards is really good, especially when your opponent has open cards and you have hidden cards, it feels even better.

After waiting for a long time in the ruins of the Zhenling Shrine,

The sound of dense footsteps came over.

"Ying, Paimon, this is Seno, you can come out now."

Saino's stern voice came.

Ying nodded and looked at Paimon: "Go, tell Senor we are here."

Paimon flew out immediately.

Ying also has to watch over the five guys on the ground.

After a while

Paimon came over with Senor, followed by a team of discipline officers and a group of thirty mercenaries.

He glanced at the five scholars lying on the ground, looking ashen.

Seno showed a trace of cold smile: "I really didn't expect that there would be traitors in this operation. Come, take them back and interrogate them to see if there are any accomplices."

Seno also pretended that he didn't know about the hidden piece.

The discipline officers behind him also had serious expressions on their faces. They picked up the five guys on the ground and left the ruins.

After everyone left,

Then Seno looked at Ying with a hint of seriousness.

"I caught five bugs on my first try. It seems like there are a lot of bugs this time."

Paimon scratched his head: "Are there still many that have not been caught?"

"Generally speaking, the people involved in this kind of secret operation don't know each other beforehand. They called together five people this time, and they are only temporary. So there must be people who didn't respond to the call."

"To be a hidden player, the most important things are patience and the ability to kill with one strike. These five are the most impatient people." Seno knows these hidden players very well. His profession destined him to deal with such people frequently.

Ying nodded slightly: "Anyway, we already have five chips in our hands. The other party doesn't know that we know about the hidden chips yet, so they will definitely continue to spread information. We just need to observe."

Hearing Ying's words, Seno also smiled: "That's right, now we are in control."

"Gurgle~" As he spoke, his stomach growled.

The two looked at Paimon.

Paimon scratched his head embarrassedly: "Hey, I'm hungry..."

Chapter 527 We Need the Ice Queen

When Ying and Sano won the first round,

In the Pure Good Palace,

Nacida was slightly surprised when she heard the price offered by Arecino.

"You mean to exchange knowledge for the heart of the God of Wisdom?"

Nacida seemed a little in disbelief.

"There are countless people who want to exchange other things for the knowledge of the God of Wisdom, but you are still the first to exchange knowledge for the Heart of the God of Wisdom."

As she spoke, Nasida showed a subtle smile: "However, I doubt the knowledge you mentioned. Knowledge that is enough to exchange for the heart of God is not a simple thing."

Not only Nasida, but also Wang Daoyi's eyes were attracted by Arecino.

There are basically few things in the world of Teyvat that are more valuable than the Heart of God.

Although the God of Wind was half beaten and half sent away, the God of Rock was also sent away with a contract, and the God of Thunder just threw it to his dependents without any care.

But none of this negates the value of God’s heart.

As the authority given by the sky,

The Seven Gods don't care about it because the Seven Gods are the victors, and the Heart of God is just the icing on the cake for them.

But under the Seven Gods, including the Evil God in the Dark Sea, the Heart of God is a peerless treasure in front of any existence.

Now, Arecino said that knowledge should be exchanged for the heart of the God of Wisdom. This is undoubtedly a very interesting thing.

"Of course, the Lord of Wisdom controls the World Tree, and the world has no secrets for you."

Arecino still had a smile on his face, polite but distant.

Sumeru's God of Wisdom has never been about how wise the god himself is. In essence, World Tree is the omniscient and omnipotent god, and Sumeru is in power only to manage World Tree on his behalf.
