Reward: 50 Primogem

Difficulty: One star

"You're incredibly lazy. You want me to do something like finding someone?" Chen Luo was speechless when he saw the request.

If you were asking Chen Luo beat up the Childe, I could understand it, since the other party might not be able to beat him, and I might be there. But why did you issue a task when you were asking someone else to do it?

"So..." Ying asked.

"Get in the car, I'll take you there..." Chen Luo said helplessly.

What can Chen Luo do? The Primogem are right in front of him, he can't just turn them down. Although it's only 50 Primogem, it's something he can easily get, so why not do it?

The key point is that Chen Luo has another task.

[Teach the Childe a lesson]: As the name suggests, teach that bastard Fatui's Harbinger who released the Vortex Archon a lesson and make him pay the price.

Rewards: 150 Primogem + 10 points of affinity with all Liyue Qixing + 10 points of affinity with all the Immortals

Difficulty: Two stars

The mission originated from a discussion between the Liyue Qixing and the immortals before Chen Luo left.

It was said that the culprit behind this incident, Childe Fatui Harbinger who released the Vortex Archon, must pay the price.

Chen Luo just stood there for a moment before receiving a task.

How should I put it? Childe really is becoming less and less valuable. The last time we had that quest involving the glowing hair that beat up Childe, it at least gave us 200 Primogem, but now it's only worth 150 Primogem.

So, should we accept this mission or not? Of course we should, so Chen Luo has to go find the Childe. Now it's the young Childe's turn to be unlucky.

And coincidentally, Chen Luo's Fate Threads ability tells Chen Luo that Zhongli and the Childe are currently together, so the two tasks can be completed at the same time.

"Let's go, let's go. I'm taking you to find Zhongli. Destination: Northland Bank. Get ready, we're departing." Chen Luo gently placed his hand on Ying's shoulder.

"Wait a minute? Why is it the Northland Bank? Isn't that the territory of the Fatui? Isn't that very dangerous? Could it be that the Fatui have kidnapped Zhongli?" Paimon was greatly surprised.

"Danger? You mean the Fatui?" Chen Luo was taken aback.

"I'm talking about Zhongli," Paimon emphasized.

"Emmm... Paimon, you might have forgotten that Zhongli is also the holder of the Vision, so there's no danger involved," Chen Luo said.

Dangerous? That's hilarious!

The two Fatui Harbinger currently in Liyue, the Childe and the Lady, combined, are no Zhongli's single-handed attack.

"Let's go," Chen Luo said to Ying as he pushed open the Bar Door.

"Shouldn't we use spatial abilities to teleport to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor? Why are you opening the bar door? Did you install a teleportation point at the Northland Bank?" Ying asked.

Ying knew Chen Luo quite well; at least she knew that Chen Luo could place a teleportation point and then quickly arrive at the Bar Door.

"Why would you be looking up a teleportation point at the Northland Bank?" Paimon couldn't help but ask.

"Hey, why are you making such a fuss? It's good that you can go. Anyway, you definitely didn't set up the teleportation point because you wanted to rob the Northland Bank." Chen Luo pushed the two kids in, one in each hand, and then closed the door.

Chen Luo has a penchant for setting up teleportation points, and when he set up the Teleport Anchor at the Northland Bank, Chen Luo hadn't yet obtained the 1.5 billion Mora and the Gnosis, so...

When Chen Luo pushed open the door and led Ying and the others to the entrance of the Northland Bank, he kicked the closed door open with a single, fluid motion, leaving the Fatui guarding nearby no time to stop him.

"FBI, open the door!" There aren't many doors in the world that can withstand Chen Luo's kick, not even the door of the Northland Bank.

The door to the Northland Bank was kicked open easily, revealing three people inside who were loudly plotting.

"Huh, what's going on?" Paimon looked at the three people inside the Northland Bank with disbelief.

Childe, the Lady, Zhongli.

Three people who shouldn't have gotten together ended up together.

"Alright, you can all leave now. Guard the gate and make sure this doesn't happen again," the Childe said to the Fatui who had barged in.

"Sigh, this is the first time we've met since everything was over. How should I put it, the atmosphere is a little awkward," the Childe said after kicking the other Fatui out.

"Hmph, I shouldn't have trusted you when I found out you were Harbinger of the Fatui," Paimon said, hands on his hips.

"Don't say that. Although I deceived you a little before, I didn't have any ill intentions towards you. Apart from the regrettable falling out at the end, the cooperation was quite pleasant, wasn't it?" the Childe said, slightly embarrassed.

However, this also reflects the Childe's peculiar values.

"It's just a difference in stance. I won't treat this as a personal grudge. Of course, it doesn't matter if you keep your personal grudges against me," the Childe said.

"Ah, I'm so glad you said that." Chen Luo clapped his hands upon hearing that the Childe was willing to say that.

"Uh, what do you mean?"

"Actually, Ying and I came here this time for different reasons. She wants to find Zhongli, while I want to find you," Chen Luo said.

"What do you want from me?" The Childe subconsciously took a step back.

"Of course, it's to play the gacha game with you again. Although I don't have any ill intentions towards you, the Liyue Qixing and the immortals don't think so. They really want to teach you a lesson. So it's just a difference in perspective, not a personal grudge. After all, I quite admire you as a tool... Harbinger." Chen Luo repeated the words the Childe had just said to Childe.

"No way? Again?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, your luck won't always be that bad. It's possible you'll run into a really weak opponent this time. But the rules are a little different this time. I'll be the one choosing the characters for the card draw, and you'll just have to take the beating," Chen Luo said quite amicably.

"How arrogant!" The Lady standing to the side scoffed.

You think you can just have a Harbinger who only gets beaten up? Who do you think you are? A demon god?

"Never mind, you can settle your own scores. I have important business to attend to. As agreed, I've come to take your Gnosis, Morax." The Lady turned to look at Zhongli.

The Lady figured it was probably some kind of strange game between them; after all, gacha games didn't sound that violent, so she didn't bother with it.

"The contract is complete. As you requested, I will grant you what you promised." Zhongli said, handing a chess piece to the Lady.

"Hmph, what a condescending tone..." The Lady was very unhappy with Morax's tone, but her body language betrayed her, and she directly took the Gnosis from his hand.

"..." Upon seeing this scene, Ying silently turned her gaze to Chen Luo.

Ying had some doubts about Zhongli Shiyan Geo Archon's matter. After all, it's impossible for a normal person not to think about taking Mora with him all the time, and the other party's behavior in this matter was also very strange.

But that's not the point right now. The point is that Ying knows Chen Luo also has a Gnosis Geo Archon. So the question is, what's going on with the Gnosis in the Lady's hand now?

"..." Sensing Ying's gaze, Chen Luo quietly moved a few steps to the side and moved closer to the Childe.

We can't let him get away; that's 150 Primogem!

"What? So you're Rex Lapis?" Paimon was quite surprised.

After all, Paimon only knows how to eat, so it's normal that he didn't notice.

"No, no, no, although this is also shocking, but, but... why did you give the Gnosis to the Fatui?" Paimon stammered.

"It wasn't a gift, but a transaction based on a contract, something between me and that Tsaritsa." Zhongli shook his head.

"I don't understand your thinking, but why did you fake your death?" Ying asked Zhongli after seeing that Chen Luo was unwilling to answer the question from the Gnosis.

"Gathering and pressuring the undercurrents beneath the surface until they burst at their limit—isn't that exactly what he wanted to see?" The Lady chuckled.

"But the problem is, aren't most of the undercurrents the work of you Fatui?" Chen Luo muttered under his breath.

"Hmph!" The Lady gave Chen Luo a displeased look.

"Don't look at me like that, it scares me. By the way, would you like to play a gacha game together later?" Chen Luo invited the Lady.

"Not interested." Considering that the other party was a friend of the Childe, the Lady didn't bother to argue with Chen Luo.

The Lady had no idea what she had just missed by making that decision.

"Alright, let me explain myself. As you know, I have lived for over 6,000 years, and the establishment of Liyue with the immortals was 3,700 years ago..." Zhongli began the narration of this matter himself.

It would be more appropriate for Zhongli, the person directly involved, to explain the whole story.

"Even a rock that a whirlpool cannot break will be Erosion by the erosion of time. I just keep telling myself that the day Erosion and cracks appear has not yet come."

"Erosion? No big deal. Want to come to my bar for a drink? I guarantee I'll solve your problem. Uh, okay, I can't guarantee it, but I can solve half of it." Hearing the word "Erosion," Chen Luo knew his business had come in.

While it would certainly be inappropriate to give Zhongli wine made with the Archon's Remains, Chen Luo could develop a wine for him made with the Gnosis.

Chen Luo happened to have a Rock-type Gnosis on hand. Grinding it into powder should have a pretty good effect. Of course, the important thing to note is that it must be consumed within 10 minutes, otherwise the effect of the Gnosis may be lost.

"Okay, I understand, I'll go." Zhongli looked at Chen Luo and recalled what Venti had told her, so she nodded.

"Come on, Childe, let's go play a gacha game." Chen Luo finally put his hand on the Childe's shoulder and said in an unyielding tone.

Don't push me, or I'll beat you up right here.

"Ah, is it really that urgent? Can't we wait a few days?" The Childe said, feeling the strength coming from that hand.

"I don't think that will work. You'll run away after today. Where will we find you?" Chen Luo shook his head.

"Well... alright then, it's a rare opportunity to fight a powerful opponent." The Childe said decisively, looking at the Heavenly Fire Judgment Chen Luo had somehow pulled out.

"Let's go to the second floor."

"What are you going to the second floor for? That's where the money is kept," the Childe asked, puzzled.

"Of course, it's to avoid people when setting up the barrier."

Of course, it's to insert a Teleport Anchor.

After being led to the second floor by the Childe and successfully inserting the Teleport Anchor, Chen Luo immediately activated the War Domain.

This time, Chen Luo chose the Golden House as the battleground.

A new week has begun, time to start grinding through my weekly tasks again.

"Hmm, let's see how lucky you are this time." Chen Luo gently shook the bell, and five cards appeared in front of Chen Luo.

An hour has passed since the last time the bell was rung; the cooldown time is long over.

"Wow, Childe, you've won the lottery!" Chen Luo exclaimed.

"Uh, what do you mean?" The Childe suddenly sensed something was wrong.

"Exactly, this person, like you, loves to fight, and this time you have the advantage. The opponent is fire-attribute, and you are water-attribute. Aren't you the one who counters him? Besides, you both like to wear masks," Chen Luo said.

"Likes fighting? Fire-attribute? Wears a mask? Sounds pretty good." The Childe nodded.

"I choose you, Brother Jie!" Chen Luo directly selected the card representing Chijie and threw it out.

A flame rose from where the card landed, and a person slowly walked out of the flame.

"Hmm? It's you? What do you want?" Chijie, who was holding his mask, looked coldly at Chen Luo and asked.

"Brother Jie, someone bullied me, beat him up!" Chen Luo said, pointing at the Childe.

"Someone dares to bully you? Did I hear that right?" Clearly, Chijie didn't seem to believe this reason.

"Never mind, shall we beat him up?" Chijie looked at the Childe.

"Ah, yes, but don't kill him," Chen Luo said.

"It's a bit difficult." Chijie said, covering his forehead after hearing Chen Luo's words.

"It would be quite difficult if we didn't kill it."

After Chijie uttered those words, endless flames surged outwards instantly.

After Chijie revealed just a sliver of his power, the terrifying pressure he exerted instantly made the Childe break out in a cold sweat.

At this moment, the Childe had the illusion that he was facing the Tsaritsa.

The Chijie skill has a 50% discount, meaning you can go all out...

Well, let's pause for three seconds to mourn for the Childe.

Hopefully, Childe can take a beating.

Chapter 374 Do you know how many uses Judah has?

"Are you alright? Are you alright? Are you alright?" Chen Luo asked beside the Childe lying on the ground.

The Childe didn't say a word, but the other person's heaving chest indicated that the other person was indeed not dead.

Two minutes have passed since Brother Jie entered the game, but one minute has already passed since Brother Jie left, meaning Brother Jie only played for one minute...

"Sigh, Brother Jie really went too far." Chen Luo sighed as he frantically cast Holy Light Healing on the Childe.

"Alright, I'm fine now, stop the treatment." The Childe, who was lying on the ground, grabbed Chen Luo's hand and said.

"If you were alright, why didn't you say something earlier? You wasted my feelings," Chen Luo said unhappily.

"Yes, I did suffer some injuries, but you healed them. I didn't say anything just now mainly because I was feeling quite disappointed. I thought I was at least in the second or third tier of this world, if not at the very top, but I never expected to be defeated by them so quickly this time." The Childe sighed and sat up straight.
