"Does the wind tell you where the resources are?" Diluc wasn't very hopeful. Although Venti was drunk, he raised a finger and pointed northwest. As soon as the finger fell, Venti fell asleep.
"Sigh..." Diluc sighed silently. What could he do? He wasn't surprised that the free-spirited Anemo Archon could do something like this. If you were to expect Barbatos to do anything worthwhile, you might as well expect Thor next door to lift the lockdown order.
Pulling the Sacrificial Greatsword from the Eye of God, Diluc leaped down from the several-meter-high gate of the Dragon Kingdom. The seemingly heavy greatsword did not slow Diluc's pace. Along the way, Diluc saw many monsters and eliminated them as he went.
"Congratulations to Diluc, the summon of the Dragon Kingdom, for defeating a monster and obtaining a bottle of mineral water, which has been placed at the gate of the Dragon Kingdom."
"Congratulations to Diluc, the summon of the Dragon Kingdom, for defeating a monster and obtaining a compressed biscuit, which has been placed at the gate of the Dragon Kingdom."
...
?
What? Wait a minute? How did I become a summoned creature? Diluc felt a throbbing pain in his temples; he was already itching to pronounce judgment on this national destiny system.
"Heh?" Wendy, who had just fallen asleep, immediately sprang to her feet upon hearing the announcement of the nation's fate, laughing without any regard for her image: "Hahaha, Diluc, you've finally met your match, hahahaha!"
"I'm dying of laughter, hahaha, how did it become a summoned creature?"
Diluc: My family is in dire straits.
Diluc took a deep breath, trying to calm down. Now was not the time to act. He would remember this grudge and one day seize the opportunity to deliver a severe verdict on the national destiny system.
Sure enough, there was a treasure chest in the northwest. Diluc opened the chest, and the national announcement sounded: "Congratulations to the Dragon Kingdom for opening an F-rank treasure chest and obtaining 100 acres of oil!"
Players from other countries had originally planned to take a break, but after hearing that even a single F-rank treasure chest could offer such generous rewards, they couldn't sit still any longer.
"Damn Dragon Kingdom! Why aren't you resting properly? Why are you killing monsters and opening treasure chests instead!"
"Let's go too! We can't let the Dragon Kingdom beat us to it!"
"Charge! Charge! Charge! For immense power!"
This wave, this wave was started by the Dragon Kingdom!
Diluc returned to the Dragon Kingdom's borders with a cold expression, only to see Venti drinking heavily without any regard for his image, tossing aside the Sacred Greatsword, and sitting down to rest.
"Alright, alright, Master Diluc, we all know you're very strong," Venti said, trying to comfort Diluc. Of course, if he were in a conscious state, Diluc would probably believe him even more.
Diluc ignored Venti and started studying the comments. When he saw a comment saying "I want to be Diluc's dog," Diluc frowned for a split second and no one else saw it.
"Mmm, resting is really nice." Wendy lay on the soft bedding, not wanting to leave for even a second. Diluc rested for a while before going out again. Relying on Wendy? Better to rely on himself.
"Oh well, fine, I'll go out too." Seeing Diluc's slightly disgusted look before leaving, Venti stuck out her tongue, picked up her harp and was about to go downstairs when she suddenly turned around. A gust of wind quickly formed and was thrown behind the gate. The two of them were caught in the gust and collided with each other. Looking at their grimacing faces, you could feel the pain even through the screen.
"Big brother! We were wrong, we were wrong!" The wind dissipated, and one of them knelt down begging for mercy, while the other had already fainted. Wendy slowly walked up to them, her little leather shoes stepping on the head of the unconscious man. She lifted the kneeling man's chin with one hand, and her pupils, a blend of fluorescent green and deep blue, were as calm as still water, making one feel that even the surrounding wind carried a hint of chill.
"Sneak attacks are bad, you know? I hate kids who sneak attacks." Wendy extended her other hand and covered the person's lips with her index finger, while her calm pupils lit up with a faint light. The person felt as if they were being watched by a god, and their every move and thought was clearly seen by the god!
"Yes, I understand, I'm sorry, brother!" The man scrambled away, not forgetting to take his companion with him.
Wendy stared in the direction the two had left, his eyes filled with complex emotions. But soon he transformed into the eccentric Wendy, pulling a beautiful bow from behind his cloak.
Anyone who has played Genshin Impact will recognize that the bow is Venti's signature weapon: Lament of the End.
“Occasionally, it’s time to get down to business. Hmm~ How’s this body that hasn’t been used in so long?” Wendy glanced at the comments. The comments were all saying that these two were players from India, who were planning to sneak into China, but were scared back home by Wendy.
"A-San-Guo?" Wendy stroked his chin. He didn't know what this country was, but the wind told him where A-San-Guo was. Wendy had learned a set of rules from the old man Zhongli: reciprocity.
"Flying is faster than running, right?" Wendy muttered to herself, but her feet were not idle. She could have flown to India in a flash, but Wendy was like a cat catching a mouse, giving you hope first and then giving you despair.
It seems that the number of people selected for the national destiny battlefield is random. For example, the Dragon Kingdom only has Wendy, while the Indian Kingdom has three.
Two of them were ordinary people with no real power, while the third person claimed to be a representative of the gods. Later, the comments confirmed that she was a high-ranking monk from a temple, capable of communicating with the divine. Therefore, this representative was the backbone of the Indian state.
Seeing her teammate stumble and crawl back, the spokesperson was clearly very dissatisfied. In her eyes, the contestant from the Dragon Kingdom was just a bard. Although she didn't know what kind of magic he used to survive, two people couldn't even handle one person?
"Useless! Can't even handle a bard." Although he cursed inwardly, he still had to maintain appearances. The spokesperson put on a profound and mysterious air and said, "It seems this bard from the Dragon Kingdom is no ordinary person, but compared to a true god, he's nothing." "Gods are mighty! May India be forever strong!" The two ordinary people seemed to have found their backbone and quickly spoke up.
"Oh my, I've finally found you!" Suddenly, a boy's voice came from outside. Wendy stepped into the gates of India, holding the End Lament in his left hand and slowly munching on an apple in his right. He mumbled, "I've heard that you Indians have gods? I'd love to see them. Let me see if I'm more powerful, or if this god I've never met is more powerful?"
"Hmph! How can mortals just see each other whenever they want? You barged in here all by yourself, aren't you afraid of being trampled on the gates of the Dragon Kingdom?" The spokesperson didn't panic, but instead questioned Wendy.
“Although I hate Dekalapian’s methods, it’s better this way if we’re going out.” Wendy chuckled, finished his apple, and casually tossed it on the gate of India. He drew his bow with his right hand, and an arrow formed from wind element was aimed at the spokesperson.
