Genshin Impact: Another Traveler of Teyvat

“Does this mean the speed will be slower?”

"We are already facing the wind. Let the rowers below row harder!"

"It's already the fastest! If you can't keep up, you can't keep up!"

"What should we do? We can't let Liyue's ocean-going freighter tow the damaged ship to Heguan first? And then we have to wait for half a day or a day to arrive. How can this be justified?"

"Since we can pull eight ships, then pulling 8 shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Then where will our Inazuma's reputation be?"

"We can't ask this Liyue ocean freighter to stop and let us reach Heguan first, and then let them arrive, right?"

"There are only two choices now: be dragged along by it, or arrive late."

"Currently, Heguan is mostly made up of Inazuma's people. Just tell them to shut up. Then talk to Liyue and ask them to save our face. Tell people that this is part of the cooperation."

“You should try it.”

"I have a solution!"

......

Captain Shigezo was speechless when he heard Inazuma's request. It was already a waste of amber solution to tow eight ships, and now he had to tow 8 more? Aren't ocean-going freighters just a little faster?

They also asked us to untie the chains when we were almost at Heguan, and then let their 12 boats pull the 8 boats to the shore to save their face.

Shigezo took out his cell phone and decided to let Beidou and Qixing deal with the rest.

Chapter 272: The accumulation of countless lies

Two days passed quickly.

From morning till dusk, countless people were watching the Heguan Port outside. As time went by, they gradually became disappointed.

"Could it be that the Kanjo Bugyo lied to us? Neither the shogunate army nor the Liyue army has come."

"That shouldn't be the case. The nine Sara are all here."

"But if they don't come, I'll be very worried! Who knows if those strange beasts will show up again to attack? This abnormal red fog is too scary now."

"No one can predict the weather at sea. Maybe it was delayed because of a storm?"

"I'm going to go back and pack my things. I'll leave early tomorrow morning. I can't just leave my life here."

"It's better to wait."

Survey and determine the magistrate's office.

Chisato Hiiragi was absent-mindedly looking at some official documents. They were supposed to arrive today, but it was already getting dark, and there was still no sign of a large ship on the sea.

In the past two days, they encountered thirteen small-scale beast tides. The existing combat power of Heguan was basically exhausted, and the logistics could not keep up with the consumption.

The situation in all aspects of the stronghold is not optimistic. At noon today, nine masked warriors appeared from nowhere to come to help.

Suddenly a noisy sound came from outside.

"Master, the traveler Ying has come out from the red fog!!!" The family general rushed in.

"Where are they?"

"They're surrounded!"

"Take me there quickly."

Near the entrance of the base, Ying and Paimon were surrounded by people. The people surrounding them all had some anger in their eyes.

Paimeng was so frightened that he shrank into Ying's arms. Ying looked at these people with a dazed look in her eyes.

"Everyone, get out of the way! The head of the Kanto Bugyo family is here!" A team of family guards came over and separated the crowd.

With the assistance of Chisato Hiiragi, the two successfully arrived at the Kanjo Bugyo Palace and told them what had happened in the past few days.

Three familiar figures walked in.

"Ah! It's Noel! And Albedo and Saura!" Paimon looked at them and shouted in surprise.

"Honorary Knight, long time no see!" Noel saluted.

"Can you tell me in detail about the situation inside the fog?" Kujo Sara began to ask about the business.

Paimon transformed himself into a storyteller and told everyone every detail of his encounter with Aru.

"A sacrifice repeated thousands of times? The Thunderbird Kapachiri? Protecting the remaining soul of this child.

You destroyed the roost and the sacrifice, which is equivalent to causing huge problems in this cycle." Albedo analyzed the current situation.

"We didn't expect that disrupting the sacrifice would have such a big impact. No wonder they looked at us with such terrifying eyes when we came back." Paimon scratched his head.

"Some change is better than no change, but how do we solve the current abnormality?"

"Yeah! This damn fog."

"I want to go to Tenkumo Pass first and let Aru finish what she failed to do that year."

"Go ahead. This kid has suffered a lot. He has been trapped in the reincarnation cycle for thousands of years, repeating over and over again. I don't know how he managed to survive. As for the fog, we can think of other ways." Hiiragi Chisato wiped his eyes.

"Then let's set off quickly?" Paimeng looked at Ying.

When they were about to set off.

"Master, Master, the boat is coming!" The family general rushed in.

"Are you here?" Hiiragi Chisato stood up excitedly.

"Yes, we can already see the lights on that ocean-going freighter."

"That's great."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Only with the arrival of reinforcements could people feel at ease. Everyone headed to the shore to welcome the reinforcements from Liyue.

only...

Half an hour later.

People who were feeling the cold wind by the harbor began to get impatient.

"What happened? Why didn't the ocean freighter move?"

"I do not know!"

"How about we send someone to row over there and take a look?"

"Wait a little longer, maybe something is going on?"

Another half hour passed.

"What's going on? Why haven't they reached the shore yet? Are they planning to live on the sea?"

"Should we row over and ask about the situation?"

"Wait for the survey to be finalized and then make arrangements."

The people at the port have begun to feel uneasy.

"Paimeng, go over there and take a look at the situation." Ying looked at Paimeng when she saw the situation.

Paimon put his hands on the pergola and measured the distance.

"This distance is already 4 kilometers, 8 kilometers round trip, it will be very tiring!"

"Three large meat patties for a midnight snack."

"I'll be back soon!" Paimon flew out instantly.

More than ten minutes later, Paimon flew back.

"What's the situation over there now?" asked Chisato Hiiragi.

"Uh...uh..." Paimon scratched his head. "They are busy removing the chains."

"Remove the chains?"

"Well, that ocean freighter is towing 20 ships of the shogunate army. Some of the ships are severely damaged and even have no masts. They must have encountered a big storm."

"What's going on? Kujo Masahito and those military advisors shouldn't make such a mistake, right? Paimon, how many ships have lost their masts?" Kujo Sara said in surprise.

"About 7 or 8?"

"How is that possible? Those are Inazuma's first-class warships!"

"But why do we have to remove the chains? Can't we just let the ocean-going freighter pull it over directly? It can dock sooner and be repaired sooner." Ying also felt that this approach was a bit unnecessary.

"If I'm not mistaken, you want some face and a show, right? It's very likely that the Shogunate army will arrive at the port first." Albedo said, looking at the lights in the distance.

"This approach is somewhat unlike Kujo Masahito's. If it were him, he would have directly pulled the ocean-going freighter over for emergency repairs.

The earlier the reinforcements arrive, the fewer casualties there will be. He understands this principle, but he will not foolishly rush into the storm.

In the Inazuma area, nearly half of the shogunate fleet was destroyed by a storm! This is simply the biggest shame of the shogunate army in recent years." Kujo Sara clenched his fists and found that things were a little beyond his plan.

"If the shogunate army could arrive first, the morale here in Tsuruga would be much higher, after all, most of the people here are from Inazuma. They arrived earlier than Liyue with a broken ship, and everyone was appreciative and sympathetic.

But if Liyue's ocean-going freighter arrives first, dragging the damaged shogunate fleet behind it, it will be a huge blow to Heguan's morale. People's attitude towards the shogunate army will become...disdainful or something like that." Hiiragi Chisato expressed his analysis.

"...It seems that it is not Kujo Masahito who comes to Tsurugan this time."

"If it's not Kujo Masahito who's here... then it's..."

Ying, Paimon, and Kujo Sara looked at Hiiragi Chisato. Hiiragi Chisato was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head.

About half an hour later, a fleet gradually approached Heguan Port.

The flags and logos all indicate that this is Inazuma's shogunate army.

The people on the shore celebrated excitedly. As Chisato Hiiragi said, people didn't care about the eight ships that were dragged behind with their masts broken.

"In my opinion, Liyue's ocean freighter is a piece of garbage."

"That's right, it's just a little bit bigger. Look, it's fine now. It was broken there and can't be moved."

"Our shogunate army is really powerful! Look, our shogunate army is towing 8 damaged ships and is still much faster than Liyue's ocean-going freighters."

“Perhaps Liyue sent some old, weak, and sick people here.”

"Hahaha..."

The harbor was filled with the laughter of the people, but the shogunate soldiers were forcing themselves to smile.

Kujo Sara listened to these harsh discussions and looked at the expressions of the shogunate troops, and couldn't help but sigh. Although the strategy of fooling the people is useful, it will also backfire!

A well-dressed man walked down from the shogunate's flagship, looked around, and found Chisato Hiiragi. He quickly walked up to Chisato Hiiragi.

"Qianli, I'm here to help you! This time we not only have supplies, but also troops." Kujo Kamajiro said excitedly.

"this time?"

"Yes, the supplies I gave you last time were a little insufficient. I have arranged more supplies for you this time."

"Thank you so much! I wonder if the supplies this time are the rations for these soldiers?"

"Well, definitely not. The staff have already calculated it. They are all extra."

"By the way, we saw that Liyue's ocean freighter was parked in the distance and didn't move. When you passed by just now, did you know what happened?"

"That's not so clear. They in Liyue don't allow us to board the ship. Maybe something went wrong there. They probably won't land on the island tonight."

"Well, the Kanjo Bugyo Mansion is newly built and rather simple. If you don't mind, please come stay for a while. I have arranged for the servants to prepare hot water to welcome you."

Chisato Hiiragi turned around and led the way. Only a few people saw the disappointment in her eyes. Kujo Kamajima saw Chisato Hiiragi's hairstyle and was puzzled, so he hurriedly chased after her.

"Qianli, your hairstyle looks really nice."

"Does it look good? This is for the man I like. The sea breeze is strong outside, let's go back first."

"The man I admire!" Kujo Kamajima was secretly happy.

The group headed towards the Kanjo Bugyofu in a mighty procession. When passing by the statue of the Seventh God, Hiiragi Chisato seemed to remember something and looked at the travelers.

"Ying, and Paimon. You should go and do your business first."

"Well, let's go first!" Paimon waved his hand and teleported away with Ying.

Next to the Seven Heavenly Gods statue on Qinglai Island.

Paimon stretched his back and patted his cheeks.
