Section 106
It is a lifetime honor for them to be able to step onto the stage of the Human Emperor Festival.
However, Su Chen was shy. He could dig out a Human Emperor Palace just by listening to his toes. He was just about to take Zhongli and Heulia for a good walk, but a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the high platform.
The next program was storytelling.
The performer, the bard Wendy? ? ?
Wearing an emerald green cape, holding a harp, and smiling, he was so familiar.
"Next, let me tell you a story... Once upon a time, there was a kingdom in the sky..."
Bards are a common profession in the continent of Teyvat, so it is normal for bards to tell stories at the festival, but Su Chen couldn't understand why it was Wendy? Huh? Hey, Wendy, aren't you next door?
"Hmm..."
Zhongli on the side suddenly crossed his arms and looked at Wendy on the stage without saying a word.
Looking at his appearance, Su Chen suddenly remembered the posture of the old man using his ultimate move.
On the stage, Wendy, who was playing the story, suddenly shuddered, looked at Su Chen and Zhongli in the audience, and gave them an awkward but polite smile.
...
"So, why did you come here?"
Su Chen looked at Wendy expressionlessly, "You went to perform at the Human Emperor Festival, you may be tired."
"Hehe~ I'm a bard, isn't it normal to travel around?" Wendy tried to get away with it, "Besides, Mondstadt is now thriving, the people live in peace and happiness, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and there is nothing for me to do."
Su Chen thought to himself, are you sure it's thriving instead of waiting to be rebuilt?
"When did you come?"
"Well... about half a month ago, you know? As long as you perform on stage, you can get a performance fee of 100,000 Mora, and food and accommodation are provided during the rehearsal period, which is amazing!"
"Half a month..."
Su Chen looked weird.
So when the Human Emperor slashed the sword and Osel invaded, you stayed in Guiliji to eat and drink, right?
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Wendy blinked, "Speaking of which, you are Su Chen, I didn't expect you to... Hehe~"
Wendy didn't continue to say the following, everyone knows, it's not good to talk too much about this matter.
Anyway, he can feel that Su Chen's strength is completely different. The Liyue Emperor, this identity is really scary.
But Wendy thought of an equation-
Wendy's friend is Su Chen + Su Chen is the Emperor = Wendy can eat and drink for free in Liyue!
The bill will be sent to the Emperor's Palace!
Just thinking about having endless wine in the future, Wendy is already high to the highest level!
"Wendy, this guy, must be up to something bad again." Paimon put his hands on his hips, "Do something serious, Wendy!"
Wendy spread his hands, his face full of innocence: "I am doing serious work, isn't it a serious matter for a bard to make money to buy wine?"
"Only you would think so!"
"Hey~"
Just then, Wendy suddenly felt a sharp gaze.
He turned around and said hello to Zhongli with a wry smile: "Hi~ old friend, I made 100,000 Mora this time, and I came here to treat you to a drink."
Zhongli didn't say anything.
"Ahaha... Look! There's a dragon!"
Vendy hid behind Su Chen.
Ying and Paimon didn't understand, and question marks appeared on their heads.
Su Chen shook his head secretly. He remembered that Vendy seemed to have forged Zhongli's contract. Although this was to overthrow the rule of the old nobles of Mondstadt, for Zhongli, who always regarded the contract as his life, the hatred value must have been full.
The reason why Vendy hasn't been beaten away yet is probably because of the thousands of years of friendship and the fact that the occasion is somewhat inappropriate.
Seeing that Zhongli had no intention of taking action, Vendy was relieved immediately. He patted his chest generously: "Come on, I'll treat you to a drink!"
With 100,000 Mora in hand, this Vendy is also a local tyrant!
...
The arrival of Wendy did not bring any surprises to the Emperor's Festival. After all, no one would have thought that this hippie-faced bard was actually the famous God of Wind.
However, Wendy kept his word and invited people to drink. This guy just had money and had fun. He was the freest person in Mondstadt.
Later, Su Chen saw Wendy pulling Zhongli aside to talk in private.
Obviously, this guy would not come to Liyue just for drinking.
Now that the situation on the continent has changed, the Queen of Winter is collecting the Heart of God. Wendy and Zhongli seem to have chosen to acquiesce. If the interests involved are not clearly understood, it is absolutely impossible to make a decision easily.
As for what the two said, Su Chen did not ask. Mr. Zhong was mature and steady. He had a bottom line in his heart, and Su Chen also had a bottom line in his heart.
"Hehe~ Su Chen, I heard that Liyue has a strong cultural heritage of food and a variety of fine wines..." Wendy suddenly came over and said with a mean look on his face.
"So?" Su Chen took a sip of wine, "There are so many wines in Mondstadt, aren't they enough for you to taste?"
Wendy said: "That's different. Although it's not as famous as Mondstadt, there are hundreds of styles of wine, and each place has its own characteristics."
"Then why do you tell me all this?"
"That...well, the bills and so on, I heard from the old man that he sent them to the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce." Wendy rubbed his hands impatiently, "Do you think I will..."
"Zhongli is Zhongli, why should I reimburse you?"
Wendy puffed up her chest and said proudly: "Because you are my boss!"
Su Chen: "???"
When he was confused, he saw Wendy taking out a badge and shaking it.
That's the badge of the Earthfire members.
"I am now a member of Dihuo, and you are the boss. Do you want to protect me?"
Su Chen was speechless.
How the hell could there be such a shameless god!
"Forget it, just do whatever you like."
After all, I took someone's Heart of God and came to Liyue to provide food and accommodation. It was the right thing to do as a landlord. Well, it was paid by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce anyway.
The Human Emperor Festival ended successfully.
"I can feel that her power is reviving." Old Rock King looked at the mountains to the north of Gui Liji, where Gui Shi slept.
He does not plan to return to Liyue Port immediately.
Su Chen smiled and said: "It's a blessing to meet again. Remember to bring a gift. It would be too embarrassing to go empty-handed after a long absence."
"Too."
Zhongli thought for a while, and with his quirky temperament, he might actually ask him for a gift.
Fortunately, he thought of a way to unlock the stone lock.
After Zhong Li left, Su Chen returned to his residence and told the people in the envoy group not to disturb him.
"Character attributes."
Su Chen lay back in the room and opened the properties panel.

"Enable simulation."
[Simulation talents are randomly generated...]
The familiar talent link presented a row of options in front of him.
[Swallow (gold): Devour the target to grow and gain all its abilities. The effect is limited by the upper limit of talent. 】
[Flash (Purple): Use the power of earth veins to achieve instant movement. 】
[Diligence can make up for weakness (purple): The effect of practice is increased by 100%. 】
[Moveless as a mountain (purple): Enter the invisible state, but cannot move. 】
[Invincible Golden Body (gold): Immune to all damage for three seconds. 】
[Substitute Messenger (Purple): Summons a substitute that is the same as the main body and directs actions. The existence time of the substitute is determined by the energy consumed. 】
"Well...how come I have some tricks?"
Looking at the row of golden and purple talents, Su Chen, instead of feeling happy, was a little panicked.
This was the first time he had seen such a gorgeous talent list that gave so many good options. Either the system was out of control, or the simulation panel was too weak, at least in the early stage, and he couldn't survive without these talents.
Su Chen felt a little sore.
After thinking for a moment, he chose the three talents of Devouring, Invincible Golden Body and Substitute Messenger.
Devouring is a method that guarantees getting stronger. Invincible Golden Body and Substitute Messenger can both save lives. Others are also good, such as teleportation, but this thing is purple. If it is golden, Su Chen will definitely choose it without hesitation.
After all, talent depends not only on the effect, but also on the upper limit. The purple teleport is probably just a little better than the abyss mage picking and choosing. I'm afraid it will be of no use when encountering a truly powerful opponent.
[Simulation begins. 】
[Generating simulation environment. 】
Everything in front of me gradually became blurry.
