Chapter 425: Meal Money
"I heard that Miss Barbara is planning to hold a concert to appease everyone."
"I heard about this incident, too. I heard that it was spread by Mr. Albert."
"Alas, Mr. Albert's news about Miss Barbara is always half true and half false. I don't know whether I should believe it or not."
If you ignore the location and only look at the content of the conversation, people might think this is not the base of a secret organization, but the fan club of Mond idol Miss Barbara.
"What are you talking about?" Borg Goethe asked as he opened the door.
"Oh, Boss, we are talking about the concert of Miss Barbara Page, the Reverend of Prayer."
"Oh, about the concert, this is true." said Borg Goethe.
"I happen to have twelve front-row tickets here. If anyone among you can complete the investigation of the recent intelligence of the Fatui, I will give him these tickets as a reward."
"If anyone can find out [the lady's] whereabouts, I will give him my own ticket."
"...The ticket is mine!!!"
The poor agents don't know that "Madam" is no longer in Mond. The branch agents, including Borg Goethe, think that "Madam" is still hiding in the dark in Mond, preparing to cause trouble.
In fact, the [lady] has already taken a carriage to Liyue, and she took a short rest at the Wangshu Inn in Dihuazhou tonight.
I wonder how long it will take for the poor Mond branch agents to find out about this.
After all, according to common sense, branches only exchange information once a year.
And now it has been just over four months since the last information exchange.
At the same time, Liyue Harbor.
"I have to say that the Fatui's executive officers are really idle." Spotted Horned Star looked at the Fatui's eleventh seat who was collecting debts with envy. He had been secretly monitoring this guy for several days. This man, code-named "Young Master Tartaglia", was a martial arts fanatic.
But unfortunately, the powerful men in Liyue are all busy with their work, and few of them are in Liyue Harbor.
So he could only bully places like martial arts gyms.
However, the strength of the martial arts school in Liyue Port is actually quite average. Unlike the dojo in Inazuma that is supported by the shogunate, although there are many martial artists here, there are not many strong ones.
The strongest in Liyue still have to rely on the Thousand Rock Army.
Most of the martial arts schools that have developed well are those that seek fame and reputation, while those that have real skills are in great decline, such as the Guhua School.
So after challenging No Matter What and discovering the truth, Tartaglia, who had nothing to do, helped his younger brothers collect debts.
The debt collectors are agents among the Fatui. Their chief commander is the Fatui executive [Rich Man] Pantalone. Their daily job is to collect debts for the Northland Bank, but usually many debt collectors will join other executives to work for them.
Their official name is [Fatui·Fire Debt Collectors]. They use the standard evil eye of the fire element and perform tasks such as intelligence gathering, material acquisition, and assassination of important figures.
Their fire hiding technique is also very good, and ordinary people cannot detect their invisibility at all.
"Hmm~ the breath of divine power, that is the Rock King..."
"Are you from Inazuma? You seem to have recognized me?"
" That's right . I am Banjiao Erxing, the deputy leader of the Yanying Leiguang campaign. Nice to meet you, Emperor Yanwang." Banjiao Erxing said very respectfully.
The visitor touched his chin and said, "I am currently on vacation. During my vacation, Zhongli is my name. I am currently a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall."
"Is that so? Banjiao meets Mr. Zhongli." Banjiao Erxing said cautiously.
"Why did Renlian send you here?" Zhongli asked.
Banjiao Erxing thought of the instructions given by Blade Leader before he came. Sure enough, everything was just as he expected.
So he told the whole story.
"I see, the feud with the Fatui [Lady]."
"But you actually know about the contract I signed with the Queen of Winter. It seems that you also have your own sources of information among the top leaders of the Fatui."
“After all, the new executive doesn’t look like he knows anything,” Zhongli said.
"It's inconvenient to tell you this."
Zhongli himself didn't want to ask, so the matter just passed. The two of them went shopping together again. Under Zhongli's magic, people couldn't find anything at all.
It was a bit awkward when it came time to pay after the meal because Zhongli didn't bring any money.
When Zhongli was preparing to record the accounts in the Hall of Rebirth, Banjiao Erxing had already paid the money.
"Sorry, I'm still a little unfamiliar with my current identity." Zhongli said rather embarrassedly.
"Why would Mr. Zhongli sign such a contract with the Queen of Winter?" Banjiao Erxing was really curious why Zhongli would sign such a deal that seemed to be very unprofitable.
This is not in line with the nature of Rock King Emperor, the God of Contract.
“Not being able to reveal the contents of the contract is also part of the contract,” Zhongli said.
Looking at Zhongli's expression, a hint of understanding flashed in Banjiao Erxing's eyes. It was exactly what he thought. This matter was definitely a good thing for Emperor Geo and Liyue, but he didn't know the specific point.
However, he knew that Emperor Rock King would never tell anyone about such things. This matter was like a top-secret secret in the monastery.
Every ten years, each member of the monastic order has a quota for soul crossing. On the one hand, it is to preserve the high-level combat power of Inazuma in other worlds, and on the other hand, it is also to solve the problem of trustworthy .
After all, no one could be more loyal to Lord Narukami than the members of the Hermitage.
Their beliefs have been tested by time. Those who participated in the plan were at least devout believers, and there were quite a few fanatics and saints.
Of course, in Teyvat, the external manifestation is the thought trend. The thought trend of the monastic order is basically locked on elegance and heavenly light, and even the thought trend of the world is very rare.
In fact, whether it is Fengya, Tianguang or Ukiyo, the common feature of these three thoughts is the belief in Mingshen.
Among them, the Tianguang school of thought at least has devout believers, and there are also quite a few fanatics. Fengya is slightly worse than Tianguang, but not by much. Fushishi is slightly worse than Fengya, and most of them are at the level of true believers and shallow believers.
Don't think that there are still believers of Orobas on Kaiqi Island now, but in fact their faith is at most shallow believers, and while they believe in Kaiji Oomikami, they also believe in Narukami at the same time, and believe in the eternal ideals of Lord Narukami.
This is all thanks to Ren Lian Lingyi and his subordinates.
