Everyone in the Intelligence Room was completely stunned.
What kind of terrifying trap was this?
[Arataki Itto: Th…
what is this thing?
This is way too terrifying!]
[Hu Tao: Wow!
This is intense!
It’s like she became a completely different person!]
[Zhongli: From the perspective of common rationality, this trap is indeed frightening.]
Zhongli felt extremely uneasy after seeing this.
If he entered the game and encountered this trap himself, he didn’t even dare imagine what the scene would look like.
[Keqing: Thank goodness I didn’t participate.
How scary!]
Although Keqing hadn’t moved, she was still paying attention to what was happening.
The moment she saw Jean fall victim to this trap, she immediately became uneasy.
This trap was simply far too terrifying.
[Barbara: Sis…
Acting Grand Master Jean, what are you doing?!]
[Amber: Acting Grand Master Jean, wake up!]
[Klee: Wow!
Acting Grand Master Jean has become so negative.
Does that mean she won’t put Klee in confinement anymore?]
[Jean: Klee, I’m sorry.
I won’t arrest you anymore.
You can blow things up as much as you want.
Even if you blow up all of Mondstadt, it doesn’t matter.
I can’t protect Mondstadt anyway.]
[Jean: And the Fatui, aren’t you planning to take over Mondstadt’s defenses?
Then go ahead.
We Knights of Favonius really can’t protect Mondstadt anymore.]
[Tartaglia: Uh…
What am I supposed to say to that?!]
[La Signora: …..]
[Scaramouche: …..]
[Ningguang: So Mondstadt belongs to Snezhnaya from now on?]
[Fang Yue: Screenshot saved.
Video recording completed.]
Fang Yue was laughing his head off.
Even he hadn’t known that there were traps inside the game space.
He had to admit, this trap was seriously effective.
[Yanfei: Please act like a decent human being!]
[Yae Miko: Little one, send me a copy of that video later.]
[Kaeya: Brother, that’s a little too shameless, isn’t it?]
[Diluc: One million Mora.
Destroy the video immediately and come collect the money at Dawn Winery.]
[Jean: Record it.
Record it.
I’m already a completely useless person, anyway.
I’m not even as good as a Hilichurl in the wilderness.]
[Kamisato Ayaka: Mr.
Fang Yue, isn’t the punishment from this trap a little too excessive?]
[Fang Yue: That’s unfair!
It’s not like I can control it.
What does this have to do with me?]
[Ningguang: In that case, Mr.
Fang Yue has no control over this game either?]
Ningguang narrowed her eyes.
At first, she had assumed that Fang Yue was the person who had created this Hide-and-Seek system.
But judging from the current situation, although Fang Yue possessed some degree of authority, he definitely couldn’t control everything.
[Fang Yue: It’s rather embarrassing to admit, but this system was created by a friend of mine.
There’s nothing I can do about him either.]
Fang Yue had absolutely no intention of telling them the truth.
He was still weak right now, yet he possessed such a system.
If the Fatui discovered his true situation, they might capture him and conduct all kinds of research on him.
Therefore, he first needed to establish an impressive persona and bluff them.
Sure enough, the moment he said this, many people were secretly shocked.
Someone who could become friends with a person capable of creating something like this probably wasn’t ordinary either.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
While Jean was still drowning in self-pity, white mist suddenly surged out of her body before dissipating into nothingness.
“I’ve failed Mondstadt.
I’ve failed Lord Barba…
What did I just do?”
Jean instantly became dumbfounded after regaining consciousness.
Everything she had said moments ago was still vivid in her mind.
She nearly fainted from sheer embarrassment.
It had only been ten minutes!
And she had actually sold out Mondstadt!
Looking at the stone statues around her again, Jean shuddered.
Now every single one of them looked like a trap.
She found a place, crouched down, buried her head in her arms, and shut herself off from the world.
[Amber: Acting Grand Master Jean, don’t be like this!
It’s not your fault.
Blame the game!]
[La Signora: Didn’t you say you were going to hand the city defenses over to us?
Can I bring people over to take over now?]
[Lisa: Fatui, you can come and try!]
The usually lazy librarian was rarely this angry.
The others still had some reservations about the Fatui, but Lisa wasn’t afraid of them.
After all, a genius witch who appeared only once every two hundred years in Sumeru’s Akademiya wasn’t someone to be taken lightly.
If the Fatui really dared to take over Mondstadt’s defenses, those Electrohammer Vanguards and Anemoboxer Vanguards of theirs would probably be taught a lesson in no time.
[La Signora: You think we don’t dare?]
[Diluc: My blade is ready.
I’ll be waiting.]
[Fang Yue: Hey, hey, hey!
You’re actually getting angry over a game?
Give me some face.
How about both sides take a step back?]
[La Signora: What face do you have?
Why should I give you face?]
“I’ll be damned!
Is this La Signora really that disrespectful?”
Fang Yue was getting a little annoyed.
She wouldn’t give him face?
Fine.
Anyway, none of these people knew his true background.
Let’s see if he could scare her half to death.
[Fang Yue: How about I go directly to your Tsaritsa and ask her for it?]
Fang Yue’s words immediately shocked everyone in the Intelligence Room.
What kind of background did Fang Yue have?
He was actually going to directly seek out a god.
And judging from his tone, he sounded completely fearless.
[La Signora: Anyone can talk big.
If you really dare to go, then go ahead and try!]
At this moment, La Signora’s brows were tightly furrowed.
She couldn’t determine whether Fang Yue was actually bluffing or not, so she decided to probe him a little further.
At worst, she could apologize later.
If he really was on the same level as a god, surely he wouldn’t be petty about it.
[Fang Yue: Are you guys going to keep searching or not?
Time is almost up!]
[Fang Yue: Aren’t you interested in such a great reward?
400,000 points!
I’m practically bleeding points here!]
Unexpectedly, Fang Yue completely ignored her.
He acted as though he didn’t want to say another word to her.
“Could he really be on the same level as a god?
Or perhaps even higher?”
Seeing Fang Yue’s attitude, La Signora began to feel uneasy.
She might have been arrogant, but she wasn’t stupid.
Considering that Fang Yue had somehow created a game like this, she still had some reservations about provoking him.
[La Signora: Who exactly are you, sir?
Please enlighten us.]
Fang Yue knew he had succeeded the moment he saw this.
He just needed to keep scaring her.
As long as Fang Yue continued ignoring her, she would most likely start overthinking things on her own and frighten herself.
Just as La Signora was still suspicious and uncertain, the second time limit arrived.
[Time’s up.
The treasure chest’s value has decreased to 300,000 points.
New players selected: Kamisato Ayaka and Kamisato Ayato.]
