Chapter 398: Unnecessary Reward
Kanria's hope is that Kaia has somehow avoided the effects of the curse.
If there were a strange list like "The Top Ten Unsolved Mysteries of Mondstadt", then Kaeya's case would definitely be one of the top ones.
Diluk, who knows some details, will naturally be disgusted by some of Kaeya's secrets, or so-called missions.
Forget it, no matter how many secrets this guy has, can they be more than that guy who can brush up his favorability like crazy?
As soon as Gu Sanqiu twisted his mouth, Wendy told him not to move. Although this guy was unreliable, since her grandfather was involved, she might as well just be a spectator.
Well, maybe I can build a good relationship with Golden Retriever, and as soon as this guy finishes traveling around the Seven Kingdoms, I can ask him for authorization and let Xingqiu write something like "Traveler's Seven Kingdoms Journal"?
This is a naive young man, or an old man (crossed out), who would be so excited to express his gratitude when others help him.
Now, except for a hint of liveliness added by Paimon, Sora's life is as pure as the fluttering white snow.
As for something like "The List of Concubines of the Seven Kingdoms of the Traveler ", it is impossible. Perhaps in the future, the Princess of the Abyss may still feel distressed for her brother while reading Xingqiu's novel.
Why are you looking for me, stupid brother? I've met so many girls during my travels, and after all this time you just kept sending me messages and then turned around and left?
Doesn't that mean my future sister-in-law is still a nobody? (crossed out)
"You two are gone. Today is my treat."
Gu Sanqiu threw a gem onto the table and then looked at Diluk.
"The noble young master of the dark night..."
Diluk held his weapon expressionlessly. “Could you please say that again?”
"Okay, hero of the night."
Gu Sanqiu spread his hands and said, "If you find the problems here strange, you might as well pay more attention to some dangerous places in Mond City."
"The Knights need to take care of the people. Many things are just for maintaining stability. Only a small number of people are actually out there investigating the reasons for the changes."
Diluk's right hand holding the juice trembled slightly: "Is this advice?"
"No, it's just a little suggestion."
Gu Sanqiu waved his hand lazily: "Instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, it is better to confirm those dangerous places first, isn't that the truth?"
Kaia smiled and said, "Oh? It seems that Sanqiu doesn't trust our Knights of Favonius. How can we, the Knights of Favonius, be left out of such a matter?"
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "That's because it's easier to act alone. And you can go to the Knights to find a guy who has free time to go out at any time, and who has high combat power and can perform stably?"
…
Kaiya was speechless. It was really hard to find such a person. It seemed that his sworn brother was indeed the best choice at this stage.
However, facing this unknown fluctuation and unknown situation, he objectively felt that Gu Sanqiu's analysis made no sense. Even if he couldn't win, he could still run away with Diluk's strength.
But subjectively, he didn't want Diluk to rush into the danger of the unknown.
Wait.
Kaiya's eyes lit up. If he was talking about such a person, wasn't there one right in front of him?
"Three Autumns..."
"Don't even think about it. I'm not going."
Gu Sanqiu refused without hesitation: "This kind of thing is thankless and time-consuming. I don't have time."
Diluk said in a gloomy tone: "Do you think I'm free?"
"But after all, he has more free time than me."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "I am just a traveler. I will return to Liyue eventually, but you are not."
"In the next period of time, I will have business negotiations with some members of the Liyue Chamber of Commerce, and I also intend to import a batch of high-quality tea from Liyue's Qiaoying Manor."
Diluk's eyes fell on Gu Sanqiu's face: "Although there is no substantial evidence, I always feel that you are seeking help."
"How about it? Help me save some money, and I'll do you this favor."
Gu Sanqiu sat back down helplessly: "What? Is this the classic warrior's intuition? It seems that your significant other will not dare to lie to you in the future."
Diluk's expression remained unchanged: "If she was the one I admitted to being with, then she wouldn't have the thought or intention of lying to me."
Kaiya joined in the fun: "How could that be? What if my sister-in-law wants to give you a surprise and plans to hide it well before this time, but you see through it right away?"
Diluk responded without hesitation: "Then I will tell you about the sister-in-law who does not exist at present and will probably never appear. My brother Kaeya secretly told me about it."
…
You, you must have learned bad things from Sanqiu.
Gu Sanqiu laughed, then picked up a piece of white paper, took out his seal, stamped it, and handed it to Diluk.
"The Mondstadt Chamber of Commerce is on the list of friendly partners of Liyue Port. This means that when you conduct business with Liyue Port, you will receive preferential treatment."
"This is mine. It should be said that this is my family's personal certificate. I can't promise you anything else, but Qiaoying Manor will definitely not make things difficult for you when they see this certificate."
Gu Sanqiu spread his hands and said, "Compared to the entire Liyue, Qiaoying Manor is not big enough to sell. If you really want to import some high-end goods, even with my voucher, the price will definitely not be low."
"By the way, I built this thing for you because I trust your character. Remember to destroy it after use."
If it were Xie Fengshen, he would never block it even if he died.
Diluk put the voucher away. “That’s enough. Thank you.”
"Then the exploration of the dangerous area will be left to you."
Gu Sanqiu stood up and left, while Kaiya looked up at the sky thoughtfully.
"Tell me, is this guy really looking for your help?"
Diluk glanced at Kaeya coldly: "What does it have to do with you?"
Kaeya smiled nonchalantly: "Nothing, I just think that my sworn brother Diluk will not sit idly by and watch such a situation, so the so-called reward given to you by Sanqiu is a bit redundant."
"You love Mond deeply. You are likely to complete these tasks. There is no need for him to pay you."
Diluk put down the cup and folded his hands.
"Very clever. Then you can guess where he wants me to go."
"It can't be the secret realm. Isn't he on good terms with the one below the secret realm? There should be no need for you to go."
Kaiya's tone suddenly paused, and then his expression became serious.
"Hey, isn't this the place I was thinking of?"
Diluk's eyes were cold. "Yes, it seems that idleness has not reduced your ability. It's a smart judgment."
"What a smart bastard."
Kaiya's face looked a little bad: "That guy clearly wants you to die. What he gave you was not a reward, but money to buy your life!"
"No, on the contrary, I think this judgment is very reasonable and correct."
"If a large-scale elemental fluctuation can cause a mutation in a dangerous area, that place has a high probability of that happening."
Diluk raised his head and looked up at the sky. What he saw in the distance was a weather phenomenon mixed with violent elemental forces that would make anyone feel terrified at a glance.
Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain!
