(The data is getting worse and worse, it's getting worse...)
Oh well, it's just something I wrote for my own enjoyment anyway.
I've given up, I'm taking a more relaxed approach.
After a while, Xiao used a bamboo pole to row the small boat aimlessly. Zhongli sat in the cabin, trying her best not to look at the sea outside, but the sea breeze was blowing into her nose from all directions. Zhongli could only put up a thin shield to protect herself from the sea breeze.
Wendy, on the other hand, was outside with her arms outstretched, singing to the sea breeze. The Tracker, lying there, was quite unhappy. It wasn't that Wendy sang terribly, but rather that she was really noisy. He just wanted to lie down quietly for a while, maybe even get some sleep. But Wendy's antics made it impossible for him to sleep or lie down peacefully. So he simply sat up and shifted his attention elsewhere.
"Wow, look over there, that boat is so impressive! Unlike us, we're just a small raft."
"Stop looking, he's a big shot, he has a wooden board to upgrade. If you keep looking, I'll gouge your eyes out. Come here right now."
"Oh, here it comes."
Passing by a raft belonging to a contestant from some unknown planet or country, receiving a bright, sparkling look in return, the Wanderer was in a good mood. Suddenly, the boat stopped. Xiao turned around and bowed to Zhongli in the cabin: "Your Majesty, this is the closest ruin to us." "Hmm," Zhongli's voice came from inside. Turning to the Tracer, Xiao said, "Mr. Zhongli means you can disembark now." "Hey, you guys conspired together, didn't you? So eager to send me to my death? Ha, just like you. Fine, it was Little Auspicious Grass King who instructed all the people of Sumeru to do their best to assist you, so I'll reluctantly go." The Wanderer yawned, tossed his hat to Xiao, and then, in front of everyone, jumped off the boat.
"Oh my God! Is he going to his death?"
"My God, my God? Are we about to broadcast the first death report?"
"I just saw a competitor jump off the boat!"
"What? Could there be something good at the bottom of the sea?"
The first two sentences are the contestants' discussion, and the third sentence is what one of the contestants shared in the chat area, and then the chat area exploded.
The wanderer who entered the sea couldn't speak, but he was very annoyed, extremely annoyed. The disgusting fish around him had their gaping maws wide open, as if they wanted to bite him to pieces. Fortunately, the tracer was a puppet and didn't have the scent of a human. The fish didn't even glance at the tracer. Their target was the delicious-smelling food on the boats. Unfortunately, a thin layer of small wooden planks blocked their way, and the fish could only stare helplessly.
The sea wasn't devoid of wind elements, but using them was somewhat difficult. The tracer swam as far as he could and, sure enough, vaguely saw the shadows of buildings. "Troublesome," he cursed inwardly, though he didn't know who he was cursing at. The tracer swam to the vicinity of those buildings, where there were treasure chests. Although the tracer really wanted to open them, the pressure of the seabed made it impossible for him to push them open. However, he could carry the treasure chests with him. The tracer decided to first check if there were any other treasure chests elsewhere.
"*****, how come there are only two treasure chests in a dilapidated ruin? ****** national fortune ***** is really ****. Oh well, it's not my problem anyway, let the gods worry about it." The tracer searched the entire ruin before finding only two treasure chests. With no other option, he tucked the two chests under his armpits and swam upwards using only his leg strength and the wind.
"Damn, finally up here, suffocating!" The Tracer swore as it surfaced, tossed the treasure chest onto the ship, then used the wind to fly up from the sea, drying itself in the process. It picked up its hat from the deck, dusted off non-existent dust, put it back on, and sat motionless in the cabin.
"Thank you for your hard work, great hero~" Wendy's eyes lit up when she saw the treasure chest. She rubbed her little hands together and pushed the treasure chest open.
"Congratulations to the Blue Star Dragon Kingdom for opening the D-level treasure chest! You have obtained 15 planks, 6 portions of food, and 4 water bottles. The Dragon Kingdom will also receive a five-year increase in seafood production and a doubling of forest resources!"
The first national fortune broadcast sounded, shaking the world and all of the forbidden lands. After all, everyone was only concerned with their own basic needs and didn't even know where the treasure chest was.
"My God, the Blue Star Dragon Kingdom must be a very powerful country! Where is it! I want to go and seek refuge there!"
"Upstairs, I'm near them. Two treasure chests! But they both look like they're in the sea, which is full of ferocious fish. The contestants jumped in and came back up unharmed, and it seems like they didn't even have their clothes on."
"Nothing? It's so frustrating when someone only says half of what they mean!"
"Yeah, yeah! Send it quickly, what happened!"
"No wetness! Damn it, why is there a word limit?! 70 words is the maximum, this is killing me!"
"It must be an immortal! Only a god from fairy tales could do that, right? Brother, give me the coordinates, I want to go and seek refuge with them!"
The contestant hesitated. If he shared his coordinates, he would inevitably encounter some ill-intentioned people. But he couldn't resist the barrage of private messages from so many people, which were driving him crazy.
"This is the . Find it yourself. I'm off." He might as well just reveal the coordinates and then run off himself. As long as he's alright, everything is fine.
"Oh dear, someone leaked our location." Wendy, who was constantly monitoring the chat area, saw a player reveal their coordinates and then noticed two players hurriedly leaving in the distance. She instantly understood what had happened. "Hmm? Hmm... This is troublesome." Zhongli also saw it, but the trouble wasn't with the people who came to seek refuge.
It's not so much the troublemakers, but the people who come to cause trouble. Those who come to seek refuge can be bound by contracts, but those who come to cause trouble don't care about contracts. Zhongli just wants to quietly let this nation's fate pass by, and then return to Liyue Harbor to continue his leisurely worldly travels. But if the number of people causing trouble increases, Zhongli will also feel troubled.
Morax loves his people, but not all of them; he will act when necessary.
"What should we do then? Should we go to the next place?" Wendy asked. Zhongli shook his head and said, "It's alright, let's see what the visitor's intentions are." "Hey, if you say that, then I'm relieved." Wendy chuckled, but there was no alcohol to drink, and the current national fortune interface only had a chat area, a trading area, and a lottery area; there were no prayers or anything like that.
Wendy had a feeling that the nation's fate was not good this time, and that this was at least the beginning.
(I was planning to take a few days off, but I still got up and updated.)
The backup plan went wrong again; Xiao Xiao, who was supposed to have one life, became Qi Qi.
The Wanderer didn't mess up, but Grandpa Zhong messed up.
Forget it, I'll just lie down.
