As the student council president of Seidoukan Academy, and the second strongest among the "Twelve Pages" of the school.

Ordinary people wouldn't dare, nor would they be able to, invade her communication devices.

This point was directly dismissed by her.

The pure star-flame armament Pandora she used had a price: experiencing different modes of death in her dreams.

So far, she had experienced at least two thousand deaths in her dreams.

She would often wake up suddenly in the middle of the night.

This was also why she was still awake at this hour.

It wasn't that she didn't sleep, but rather that she had died in a dream once again, forcing her to wake up.

However, unlike before, after waking up this time, a chat group panel appeared before her.

"Could this really be a chat group connecting to other worlds?" Claudia murmured in disbelief.

She had already experienced many death dreams.

She understood them well and was absolutely awake now, not still in a dream.

Moreover, she had just used her communication device again and found it to be functioning normally.

She also found no trace of her data being tampered with.

Therefore, there was only one possibility: the chat group connecting to other worlds before her was real.

Although it was hard to believe, it wasn't without a way to confirm.

That was to use the points in the group to strengthen herself or purchase items.

From the chats of the group members, points were a very important currency in the group, which could be used to improve one's strength and also to buy things in the group mall.

"Let's try it first."

With that thought, Claudia willed her mind and used the group's sign-in function, then used all the points obtained from signing in to strengthen herself.

In an instant, a faint warm current flowed through her body.

The star power within her subtly increased by a sliver.

"I did get stronger, although the increase is very small..."

Claudia felt the change in her strength, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.

Although this small increase was almost negligible to her.

However, the points she used for strengthening were only a few dozen.

If such a small amount of points could bring her a barely perceptible improvement, then what about if more points were used for strengthening?

With that thought, Claudia's gaze turned to the chat group panel.

[Claudia]: Hello everyone, is there any way to get more points?

[Lumine]: Oh? A newcomer has finally appeared, and judging by the message, the newcomer used points to strengthen herself to confirm the group's authenticity. It's not bad that she didn't immediately start questioning.

[Su Luo]: Besides signing in, the only way to get points is through tasks posted by group members.

[Wang Xiaomei]: Is the newcomer desperately seeking power? If there's something you can't solve, you can try posting a task, and people in the group will come to help you solve it. And everyone can also get points.

[Claudia]: Is that so? Mine shouldn't be a big deal, I just lack a few powerful teammates to form a team with me to participate in a competition.

[Saeko Busujima]: Competition? What kind of competition?

[Claudia]: Griffon Race...

Claudia spent some time introducing the Griffon Race and the power system of her world to the people in the group.

This allowed Su Luo and the others to understand which world Claudia was from.

[Wang Xiaomei]: I see, it's that world.

[Lumine]: Honestly, the champion reward for your Star Martial Festival being a wish granted by a comprehensive consortium is good for ordinary people, but in our eyes, this champion reward is truly a bit meager.

[Kaguya Houraisan]: Evaluation: Inferior to the Holy Grail War.

[Su Luo]: That's simple. Even if you can't post a task, anyone from our group can easily hang the people from your world up and beat them. Only Fan Xinglu is a bit troublesome, but most people in the group can beat that old loli.

[Claudia]: Are you all that strong!?

Seeing Su Luo's message in the group, Claudia's eyes widened.

Fan Xinglu, the student council president of Jielong Academy.

On the surface, she looked like a nine-year-old girl, but in reality, her true age was at least a thousand years old.

Her strength was recognized by everyone as the strongest.

Now Su Luo was telling her that most people in the group could beat Fan Xinglu. Was he kidding her?

[Saeko Busujima]: I haven't fought her, so I'm not sure, but it's worth a try. With over fifty thousand points of strengthening plus the sword techniques and abilities from the treasure chest, even if I can't defeat Fan Xinglu, I should at least be able to fight her to a four-six split.

[Wang Xiaomei]: Rationally speaking, although Fan Xinglu is very strong, she is only strong in your world. We are people from other worlds, so in our world, she can only be considered... alright.

[Su Luo]: If you had joined the group earlier and participated in the previous two tasks, I wouldn't dare say I could hang her up and beat her, but at least I could guarantee that you and Fan Xinglu would fight to a draw, or a four-six split.

[Claudia]: ...

Seeing Su Luo's message, Claudia's heart was filled with a mix of emotions.

However, for now, this group chat had given her a pleasant surprise.

It not only provided her with a bigger stage but also helped her improve her strength faster.

There was still a long time before the Griffon Race officially began.

This period should be enough for her to grow into a powerhouse like Fan Xinglu, or even stronger.

[Claudia]: Thank you all very much, but the opening of the Griffon Race hasn't arrived yet on our end, so if you want to post a task, we'll have to wait a while.

Chapter 48 Lumine Posts a Task, Heading to Teyvat

[Lumine]: It's fine, we're not in a hurry. Just let us know if you need anything.

For the members of the chat group, even if the task was a bit simple, as long as they could earn points, it was worth it.

Even if they couldn't earn points, they could still owe someone a favor.

After all, once they joined the chat group, the members' strength would eventually improve.

When they needed help themselves, they could ask the other party for assistance, and it wouldn't be easy for them to refuse.

[Lumine]: By the way, after daybreak, I plan to post a task to purify Stormterror. Claudia, you can join us for this task. With us guiding you, the difficulty won't be too high.

[Claudia]: Thank you very much.

Returning to Su Luo's side.

After confirming the identity of the new group member, Su Luo chatted with everyone in the group for a while before closing the chat panel to enjoy the beautiful nightlife.

The next morning.

Irisviel woke up from her sleep.

She sat up and stretched beautifully.

Last night's sleep was the best quality sleep she had experienced since her birth.

She slept until she woke up naturally, feeling refreshed!

The quilt slipped off her body, and a sudden chill made Irisviel instantly aware of her current situation.

"I..." Irisviel looked at Su Luo beside her, recalling yesterday's events, and her cheeks instantly turned rosy.

"What, you don't recognize me after waking up?"

"Or are you planning to renege on our agreement after the fact?" Su Luo put on a "You're that kind of woman" expression and looked at Irisviel.

Hearing this, Irisviel's cheeks puffed up slightly, and she said with a hint of annoyance, "Not at all!"

"Besides, aren't these the kinds of things women are supposed to say?"

"Who says men can't say it? Aren't there plenty of irresponsible 'scumbag' women out there?"

Early in the morning, Su Luo and Irisviel started bickering.

They looked like a couple with a very good relationship.

A moment later, Su Luo finished washing up and opened the chat panel.

At this time, Lumine had just posted a task in the chat group.

[Ding! Group member Lumine has posted a task.]

[Task 1: Help Dvalin regain his senses]

[Task Reward: 20,000 points]

[Ding! Hidden task triggered]

[Task Content: Repel the Abyss Order's army attacking Mondstadt]

[Task Reward: 50,000 points]

[Wang Xiaomei]: Oh ho, the Abyss Order is going to attack Mondstadt already? This is much faster than the game's progression, and judging by the point rewards, the scale of the Abyss Order's attack this time must be quite large.

[Kaguya Houraisan]: Lumine, can you guess your brother's objective?

[Lumine]: How would I know? In the game, he's a total enigma. Do you expect me to know what he's planning in reality?

[Su Luo]: Who cares about that, just do it!

After sending this message, Su Luo looked at Irisviel: "Ai, I have something to go out for. Can you tell Melly and the others for me?"

"Where are you going? Do you want to bring Ria and them along?" Irisviel asked caringly when she heard Su Luo was going out.

"Don't worry, with my strength, I won't get into trouble that easily," Su Luo said with a smile to comfort her.

"Then I'm off."

With that, Su Luo's figure disappeared from his spot.

Teyvat, Mondstadt.

Inside a tavern called "Angel's Share."

Lumine and Paimon, along with Venti, Diluc, and Acting Grand Master Jean, were gathered here.

Originally, at Lumine's deliberate urging, she had planned to take Acting Grand Master Jean and Venti to witness the purification of the Abyss Power within Stormterror's body by her and the Chat Group members.

The purpose, of course, was not for the title of Honorary Knight, but purely to earn some Mora from the Knights in passing.

However, she didn't expect that when she posted the task, it would trigger a hidden quest, forcing her to make some adjustments to her previous plan.

"What's wrong? Traveler," Acting Grand Master Jean asked, looking at Lumine, who had suddenly frozen in place.

"...The Abyss Order is about to attack Mondstadt City," Lumine said after a moment of thought, revealing the truth.

"What?!"

Hearing this, Acting Grand Master Jean and Diluc were taken aback.

"Can you confirm that?" Acting Grand Master Jean asked anxiously.

"Isn't the Anemo Archon here? He can sense it," Lumine said, her gaze shifting to Venti, who was trying to sneakily grab a drink.

Seeing Diluc and Acting Grand Master Jean looking at him, Venti quickly put down the wine bottle, pretending he hadn't done anything.

Diluc sighed softly, "Anemo... Venti, if you want to drink, I'll treat you after this is over. You can drink as much as you want."

"What's more important now is what the Traveler said. Is the Abyss Order really planning to attack Mondstadt City?"

Venti coughed lightly, maintaining his usual carefree demeanor. "The Anemo elements in the Whispering Woods have become chaotic and violent. What the Traveler said is indeed correct."

Actually, he was quite frustrated.

After all, he had initially planned to guide the Traveler according to his own vision, making Lumine his errand runner to help him purify the Abyss Power within Stormterror's body.
