Miss Liuying, I'm really not a bad guy

"..."

"Hahaha……"

Looking at Latio walking away, Shajin felt no emotion. He was thinking... maybe...

This Starry Sky Train will be a good opportunity to bring down the [Market Development Department]!

Also... a chance to settle the score with that Lao Deng!

Chapter 56: Changes in Teyvat

"Damn it! Where did these guys get so many [Shields]?! There's no way they can break through their defense!"

"Listen up, treasure-stealing gang out there! Surrender now! We, the Thousand Rocks Army, treat our captives well!"

The Thousand Rocks Army outside shouted loudly to the treasure-stealing group inside. At the same time, another group of Thousand Rocks Army had slowly moved up along the back of the rock wall. If the other party continued to resist, they would have to wipe out Liyue!

"We surrender! We surrender! My dear soldiers! Give us a chance to live!"

The treasure-hunting group in the rock wall finally couldn't bear the burden, raised their hands, and walked out of the cave in the rock wall.

"Well...you guys are honest!"

The captain of the Qianyan Army was very satisfied with the performance of this group of treasure hunters. It not only allowed them to reduce the number of kills, but also relieved the pressure on their shields.

Since the emergence of these shields, the pressure on the Thousand Rocks Army to carry out their missions has been greatly reduced.

Moreover, under the leadership of Yuhengxing Keqing, their team removed many "nails" that were difficult to remove in the past in less than half a month.

Some are treasure-hunting groups, and some are monsters.

But under the protection of this magical shield, their casualties were pitifully small!

And the achievements made are naturally extremely rich!

In the current Liyue territory, it is difficult to encounter large-scale treasure-stealing groups and robbers. If there are any, they are only scattered and dare not show up in groups!

Some treasure-hunting groups that could no longer make ends meet sneaked into the deep mountains and forests, which were even more secretive than before. Although they couldn't earn much Mora there, it was still much better than being caught by the Qianyan Army!

Disrespecting the immortals? Haha, haven’t they done enough evil things that are against heaven and earth!

Since the Thousand Rocks Army has recently swept away some of the threats in Liyue, the caravans responsible for transporting goods have become bolder. The amount of goods imported from Liyue has increased significantly, and more and more foreign businessmen have come to Liyue to seek cooperation.

And this is just one of Tianquanxing's plans.

In recent times, the number of Fatui active in Liyue has decreased significantly, and most of them have been transferred to Mondstadt.

And the [Chief] Tartaglia who is in charge of Liyue...

After a period of rest, he was able to stand up from the wheelchair.

I have put on the brand new evil eye that was mailed back from Winter Solstice, but I guess it won’t be able to be used many times.

The original evil eye had been smashed into pieces by the tin man's punch, and the pieces were even more exaggerated than the food Tonya had cooked!

Even his entire body was almost shattered by that punch...

The Starry Sky Train has been listed as an absolutely dangerous existence on the external list of the Eastern Country.

Although some executives scoffed at this,...

After learning that the Young Master's evil eye form was broken by just one punch, even the most belligerent... began to think.

Can he blow it up with one punch?

In short... the Fatui's plan in Liyue has been temporarily halted, and the Thousand Rocks Army's raid on Liyue is also a warning.

Ningguang... she really has calculated everything she can...

With just the help of a Star Train, they completely cleaned up Liyue from the inside out! And through those magical shields, they further amplified Liyue's influence among the Seven Kingdoms! During this period, Liyue's trade value has reached a terrifying figure, and all of this... was achieved with just one trigger...

That is, the Star Train!

Rather than thinking about not offending the Starry Sky Train, it is obvious that being able to cooperate with the Starry Sky Train is the most important thing!

But this Star Train is really elusive. There is no name of this force in the records of Teyvat, nor are there any similar records related to it.

After it left Liyue, all the countries that learned about the Star Train began to use their intelligence networks to search for it, and even the secluded Inazuma was spied on.

But unfortunately, it seemed to have disappeared from this world, without reaching anywhere...

Such a strange force inevitably attracted some attention in secret.

Some speculated that the train was likely fictitious, but this was quickly dismissed.

Some people also speculate that this train may not be from Teyvat, but from the stars...

This view was scoffed at by some people, but after that, there was endless horror.

……

"Long time no see, old friend."

Under a welcoming pine tree in Liyue Harbor, Zhongli was sitting at the door of a teahouse, and opposite him was a bard dressed in green.

"It's been a long time since we last met, old man. How have you been lately?"

Wendy placed two bottles of wine on the table with a smile and asked about Zhongli's recent situation.

"Well... it's a mixed bag."

Zhongli shook his head.

"Oh? Let me guess, you're also worried about the Star Train?"

He opened the wine that he had hidden for half a year, smelled the aroma of the wine, and guessed to Zhongli.

"indeed."

Zhongli nodded.

"You should be able to tell the difference."

Zhongli gently filled the teacup with the cider that Wendy brought, sniffing the refreshing aroma and spoke frankly.

"Alas... indeed, but He didn't react at all."

He felt a little distressed as he looked at the wine that had been mostly taken away from him, but he was helpless and could only sigh softly.

"That's not something we should worry about."

I tasted the clear wine and found that it is not bad to drink some different wine occasionally.

"What do you think about her?"

"..."

"Have you made your decision?"

"Indeed, but it seems it is too early to decide now."

"Is it because of this?"

"Part of it."

"boom……"

The teacups collided, and a crisp sound was heard between the two people's glasses of wine.

"If that conjecture is correct...if it's true..."

"Then I will once again lead Liyue through this disaster."

"Disaster..."

"If that's the case...never mind! Let's drink!"

Wendy looked as if she had suddenly realized something. She raised her cup with a very open mind and her cheeks flushed!

"How's the cider?"

“The taste is okay.”

"Then try this again!"

"?"

Under Zhongli's puzzled gaze, Wendy took out a dark green bottle...

"I think it's not necessary."

"How……"

He had been trying to fool his old friend with the question, but suddenly he stopped talking and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.

"call……"

The whistling wind ruffled his hair and blew up the cloak behind him.

"It's back..."

"Ok, I know."

Zhongli nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to the sky.

A "shooting star" is streaking across the sky...

Chapter 57 Return to Teyvat!

"Look! What is that!"

The people in Liyue Harbor stared at the bright star that was slowly descending in the sky with their eyes wide open!

Some people hid out of fear, while others stood outside out of curiosity and peeked with their eyes.

"Is it a glowing bird? Is it an immortal?"

"No... look at the back of it..."

Behind the [meteor] was a long "chain". People with good eyesight could see the true appearance of the track at a glance.

That's not a chain, or the butt of a shooting star! It's a track! The track that a train runs on!

"It's the Star Train! It's the Star Train!!"

"What? The Star Train is back!!"

"Mom! Look! It's the Star Train!"

The entire Liyue Harbor instantly became restless. Countless pairs of eyes were staring at the train slowly descending from the sky. Countless merchants who left their hometowns and came to Liyue were licking their dry mouths, feeling a little itchy in their throats!

When the Star Train first landed, the entire Liyue Harbor was filled with fear.

And when the Starry Sky Train descended again, the people of Liyue changed their previous fear of the train. On the contrary, they were full of anticipation and welcome for the arrival of the train!

Under the intentional or unintentional promotion of the Liyue Seven Stars, people gradually discovered that the Starry Sky Train was the one who brought the "immortal magic weapon" to Liyue!

It is precisely because of these immortal magical instruments that Liyue is so peaceful now!

In the past, people were often harassed by demons and bandits! Most of the Thousand Rocks Army was tied up, and aside from those responsible for daily maintenance of Liyue Harbor, there were naturally very few people left to deal with those hidden dangers.

But now it’s different! With the immortal weapon, the Qianyan Army is like immortals and gods descending to earth, so brave and unstoppable!

With that shield, there was even a legendary story of "one man fighting seven monsters" some time ago!

A man with a shield single-handedly slaughtered a tribe of Hilichul! Not only were there brutal Hilichul thugs in that tribe, but there were also many shamans!

But after the warrior walked out of the Hillichell tribe, he was unharmed!

Everyone knows this; these are all things brought by the "Alien Visitors"! The fact that the Alien Visitors chose Liyue must be due to the connection with the Geo King!

That train might be the one sent by the Emperor to Fuze Liyue!

……

"He is back."

On top of the Qun Yu Pavilion, Ning Guang looked at the train descending from the sky and said softly.

"Yo... I'd like to see what kind of person this guy you call Little Mister is."

Beidou walked out from behind Ningguang and looked at the train track with curiosity.

"Tell me, is there a possibility that the Death Star will one day fly into space?"
