There were rooms on both sides of the Knights' Hall without windows, so no sunlight could come in. Upon learning that Noelle was not here because she was looking after little Klee, Li Qiuzhi had to leave first.

He continued to wander around the Knights for a few more circles, and also went to the square of the Wind God Statue to take a look, but he didn't see Noel squatting there.

It is not easy to find someone in a city as big as Mondstadt. It seems that Li Qiuzhi can only think of other ways.

After much thought, it seems that the only option is to go and see what's going on with Bennett first.

The landscape bushes along the street were neatly trimmed and looked very pleasing to the eye. Li Qiuzhi took some time to come to the most famous tavern in Mondstadt, "Angel's Gift".

I don’t know if I will have the chance to meet the legendary night elf hero, Master Diluk.

In Mond, people love wine.

Most of the wine industry in Mondstadt is related to the Dawn Winery. Even the biggest competitor of "Angel's Gift", the "Cat's Tail Tavern", has cooperated with Master Diluk.

After a hard day's work, adventurers always come to the tavern to have a drink.

So there was nothing wrong with Bennett coming to the tavern to find someone to team up with.

Since it was daytime, there were not many people drinking outside "Angel's Gift". Li Qiuzhi pushed open the door and came in to find that there were only two or three people there, and Master Diluk was not there either.

How could Bennett find anyone willing to form a team at this time?

With such doubts, Li Qiuzhi declined the bartender Charles' recommendation for new products and looked around for Bennett.

"Really?! Are you really willing to team up with me?"

A familiar voice came from the side. Li Qiuzhi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Bennett sitting on a table and chair in the tavern.

A girl with a night crow flying beside her sat opposite him with her arms folded - Fischl.

"Why would a princess need to deceive her own servants?" Fischl raised her head proudly and turned to the side.

Oz's night-colored wings flapped gently and said:

"Miss, I haven't agreed to become your attendant yet."

"Oz, long-winded!"

Fischl glared at the crow of the night with her right eye that was not covered by the black eyepatch.

"Hey, it doesn't matter as long as you are willing to team up with me."

Bennett touched the back of his head, a silly smile showing from the bottom of his heart on his face.

Oh? Li Qiuzhi didn't expect Bennett to meet the princess, and from what they said, it seemed that they had already reached an agreement.

It's really surprising.

Li Qiuzhi walked towards them.

Oz's perception was very sharp. He knew at a glance that Li Qiuzhi was walking towards them, so he said:

"Mr. Bennett, is this the other teammate you mentioned?"

"Hey, Li Qiuzhi, why are you here? Did your friends agree?" Bennett turned around after hearing this, with a hint of doubt in his emerald eyes.

"It seems that I am busy and I haven't found her."

Li Qiuzhi shook his head and replied.

"Is that so? But it doesn't matter. I have found teammates here. I can go to Miss Catherine to sign up."

Bennett said in an excited tone.

"I am Princess Fischl of Judgment. Stranger, do you also want to be my attendant?"

Fischl's fair face faced Li Qiuzhi, with an eye patch covering her left eye, and her golden hair slightly covering the black eye patch.

Before Li Qiuzhi could answer, Night Crow Oz skillfully relayed the message:

"The lady said she was glad to meet you."

Li Qiuzhi nodded. Knowing Fischl's personality, she didn't find it strange. She followed her lead and said a few words:

"I come here at your call, Your Highness!"

"Oh? That's amazing."

There was a hint of surprise in Oz's crow eyes. There were not many people who could talk to the young lady.

"Hmph. You can understand that, I accept your loyalty!"

Fischl's eyes lit up slightly, and she almost gave herself away in her words as if she had met a close friend, but fortunately she corrected herself in time.

This guy is surprisingly nice.

[Fischl has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 150 points of favorable impression. The current favorable impression level is Lv.2 (50/200)]

Could it be possible that so much favorability was generated directly? Li Qiuzhi was secretly amazed.

But this was not unexpected to him. After all, most people would think that Fischl's way of speaking was a bit strange.

Even with the company of Oz the Night Crow, she would still feel a little lonely. At this time, she would inevitably feel happy when there was someone who was willing to communicate with her on the same channel.

".Uh, haha, thank you for being willing to team up with us, Miss Fischl and Mr. Night Crow. My name is Li Qiuzhi and I'm from Liyue. I'm a new adventurer now."

Li Qiuzhi introduced himself to his new friends.

He didn't completely follow Fischl's way of speaking. After all, they had just met, but Oz was not stupid for him to act like he knew Fischl so well.

The next one or two sentences can be said to be a joke.

If he overdoes it, Oz will start to suspect he has some strange intentions.

"Humph."

Fischl snorted in disappointment, and responded with the pride and majesty of a princess.

"Hello, I am Oz the Night Crow, the lady's follower. It's a pleasure to meet you, adventurer from a foreign land."

Oz said seriously while flapping his wings.

"This way we can meet the requirement of at least three people. Let's go find Miss Catherine and sign up!"

Bennett stood up excitedly, he was a man with a passion for adventure.

"Alright."

Fischl pushed the chair away and stood up. He raised his eye patch with his left hand, swung his right hand in a cool pose and said:

“The time has come!

"The forgotten realm of magic has long appeared, and the cause and effect that has transcended the torrent of time has come again.

"The master of 'Night of Purity', the Princess of Judgment, will lead her warriors to destroy the remaining embers of the conspiracy!"

Bennett scratched his hair in confusion, and Oz calmly relayed:

"The lady said that she will definitely lead everyone to obtain the treasure of the ruins."

The three of them plus a night crow successfully registered with Catherine this time. She also said that Fischl was one of the investigators sent to investigate the secret realm.

This made Bennett feel a little admiring, but Li Qiuzhi found it not unexpected.

Fischl is a very outstanding investigator among the Adventurer's Guild, mainly because she can obtain Oz's vision, and she can see whatever Oz sees.

It feels like you can send out Oz to see the world while sitting at home.

Catherine then told the three people what they needed to pay attention to.

First of all, the specific exploration time is scheduled for six o'clock tomorrow morning, and then the team will gather at the city gate and be led by President Seleucus himself.

Then when you arrive at the Thousand Winds Temple, a temporary supply camp will be set up.

Exploring a secret realm is not a quick thing. It may take a month and a half to fully explore a large secret realm. It is necessary to ensure sufficient supplies and, most importantly, a medical team.

Adventurers come to find treasure and cannot return empty-handed and lose their lives.

Chapter 44: Exploration of the Secret Realm (Please collect and read!)

The sky is still hazy, and a new day has come.

On the wall of the yard, the morning breeze carried the dandelion seeds, which swirled around on their own.

Li Qiuzhi glanced at the clock. It was half past five in the morning.

He carried the adventurer's hunting bow and a quiver full of arrows on his back, and still had the blunt sword tied around his waist.

After confirming that no one was missed, Li Qiuzhi walked out of the door and headed towards the city gate. At about six o'clock, when he arrived at the city gate, he happened to meet Fischl and Oz together.

Bennett also yawned and rubbed his sleepy eyes as he came to the gathering place.

“Look at how languid you all are!” Fischl, who was wearing asymmetrical black silk gloves, looked at her nails and said in a haughty tone, “As my servants, how can you be so disrespectful to me during this dark journey!”

"The lady said that she has been waiting for you for a long time." This was reported by Oz, the Night Crow, a servant of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Haha."

Bennett touched the back of his head and smiled twice, revealing his white teeth: "I was so excited last night that I chatted a little more with the dads."

"Your Highness, please forgive me." Li Qiuzhi also said with a smile, "By the way, this is too many people."

Li Qiuzhi looked around.

The fully-equipped adventurers walked out of the city gate one after another. Li Qiuzhi had only seen this kind of scene in the vegetable market.

"They are some relatively large adventure groups. They have rich adventure experience and are an indispensable force in exploring secret places."

Bennett told what he knew.

Li Qiuzhi nodded when he heard this. Come to think of it, he seemed to have encountered a situation where an adventure group was recruiting new members before.

With so many new adventurers, it would be inappropriate to go on adventures alone without experience, so people usually ask seniors to guide them.

At this time, joining or finding a few friends to form an adventure group is a good choice.

Bennett is probably the latter.

Unfortunately, the team leader is so unlucky that every commission he takes on fails in various bizarre ways, and the team members have to ask for leave for various reasons.

In fact, I changed jobs a long time ago.

It was because Catherine was soft-hearted that she didn't tell him, otherwise Benny's adventure group with only one leader would have been deregistered long ago.

While Li Qiuzhi was thinking about this, Fischl put her hands on both sides of her short skirt and said to the outside of the city gate:

"I hear the fate of the Forgotten Kingdom calling. Sing for joy! My servants!"

Oz's night wings flapped as he spoke: "The lady said it's time for us to set off."

"Since Fischl said so, let's go." Li Qiuzhi said softly.

Outside the city gate, there were many four-wheeled carriages parked. In addition to those used by the Adventurer's Association to transport supplies, some large adventure groups also had their own carriages.

Compared with small teams of adventurers like Li Qiuzhi, they can easily get there by carriage.

Fischl always stood in front of the two men, maintaining the dignity of a leader.

After waiting for a while, the president of the Adventurer's Association, Serius, told everyone a few things to pay attention to when exploring the secret realm, and then set off with the entire team.

The things you need to pay attention to are that when exploring secret realms, you must maintain harmony and support each other. If conflicts arise, ask the Adventurer's Association to coordinate.

Afterwards, led by the carriage team of the Adventurer's Association, they set off in a grand manner like a long dragon.

Li Qiuzhi and his two companions, along with the crow, were inconspicuous among the crowd. After a long time, they arrived at the Thousand Winds Temple and began to build a temporary supply camp.

Since this camp serves all adventurers, Li Qiuzhi and his friends also need help.

With so many people, a temporary camp was quickly set up, and wall lamps were installed in the dark ruins passage to facilitate everyone's entry and exit.

Next, the exploration of the secret realm officially begins.

Thousand Winds Temple, secret ruins.

Li Qiuzhi, who had just passed through the secret realm portal, felt a little dizzy, but he soon felt better after shaking his head.

Standing in front of him was Fischl, who had arrived earlier. The hem of her black and purple skirt was split like a swallowtail, slightly covering her asymmetrical black semi-transparent stockings from behind.

On her feet were gorgeous black flat-heeled boots.

His eyes swept over Her Royal Highness the Princess and he discovered that the ruins inside and outside the secret realm seemed to have the same architectural style.

The sky was a high slate dome, and it felt like we were in some kind of underground building.
