Zoey controlled Lumine, continuously advancing the story.
Upon reaching a high vantage point, the scenery of Starfell Lake outside Mondstadt suddenly expanded into view, and her field of vision widened.
Zoey’s mouth fell slightly agape; she had praised the game’s graphics many times since starting, but now she couldn’t help but praise it again.
So beautiful!
Is this game really free to play?!
The viewers in the live stream were also stunned by this scene, and the comments started to pile up rapidly.
“The game company is generous; they didn’t cut any corners at all.
The game is exactly as advertised!” “This is the place I’ve always dreamed of going!” “Lumine is so beautiful too!” Afterward, Zoey controlled Lumine through the preceding story.
They arrived before the Statue of The Seven, lit up the map, gained Anemo elemental power, and tried using the Anemo Traveler.
Then, the two saw a giant dragon fly overhead and walked together into the Whispering Woods.
As they walked, the two saw Venti, the bard, communicating with the giant dragon, inadvertently disrupting Venti’s plan.
The giant dragon roared and flew away, and Venti quickly did the same.
Lumine and Paimon found a red tear-shaped crystal at the original spot, and just as they put the crystal away, a rapid sound of footsteps came from all around.
Lumine immediately became alert.
…
The Continent of Teyvat.
Scarlett and Noelle jogged along, and upon arriving at the source of the recent commotion, Scarlett’s eyes immediately lit up.
It’s Lumine!
And the super cute Paimon!
Jogging up to Lumine, Scarlett stood still, placed one hand on her chest, and performed a standard knight’s salute.
“Greetings, esteemed strangers.
We are unassigned members of the Knights of Favonius.
I am Scarlett, and this is Noelle, also a maid of the Knights of Favonius.
We heard a commotion here just now and came specifically to investigate.
May I ask what just happened here?” Scarlett’s every word and action were impeccable; she had diligently studied the Knights of Favonius instruction manual!
Although neither of them was yet an official Knight of Favonius, their every word and action were moving towards becoming qualified Knights.
Noelle also greeted Lumine and Paimon, though she performed a maid’s bow.
In the live stream, seeing the two girls suddenly appear, the chat immediately became excited.
“Noelle!
It’s Noelle from the promotional materials!
Ahhh, my darling!” “The other one is also so beautiful.
I declare that from now on, she is my new waifu!” “It’s three beautiful girls right from the start, is it really this exciting?
I can’t even imagine how awesome it would be to play as the male protagonist!?” “What’s so awesome?
There’s no romance route in this game anyway.” Zoey’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Noelle and Scarlett.
“Chat, I really like this one!” “Streamer, you said you liked the protagonist before.” “Hehe, great minds think alike.” Zoey glanced at the chat but paid them no mind, focusing all her attention on the computer screen.
…
Seeing Scarlett and the other girl acting so formal, Paimon stepped forward.
“Hello, I’m Paimon, and this is Lumine.
We just arrived in Mondstadt today.” Paimon wagged her little finger.
“Just now, we saw a very, very big dragon here.
The commotion you mentioned was probably made by that dragon, but it has already flown away now.” Scarlett and Noelle exchanged glances; having spent so many years together, both understood the thoughts in the other’s eyes.
“Are you two Travelers?
If it were peacetime, we would certainly welcome your arrival and guide you on a tour of Mondstadt, but the situation is special now.
The Stormterror incident has made everyone uneasy, so it’s best not to stay in the wilderness for too long!” “Stormterror?” Lumine actually spoke on her own initiative!
“Is that the dragon we just saw?” Scarlett nodded, her high ponytail swaying with the movement.
After a brief exchange, Scarlett and Noelle successfully joined Lumine and Paimon’s party.
Led by Scarlett, they all walked towards Mondstadt City.
Along the way, Lumine told Scarlett and the others about her purpose for coming to Mondstadt, but she did not mention that she was investigating whether the Anemo God was the deity she had encountered before.
Scarlett and Noelle were strangers, unlike Paimon.
Lumine had learned to be cautious before confirming the truth.
Scarlett also noticed that Lumine was not as quiet as she was in the game; she talked quite a bit, and the group quickly became familiar with each other.
After walking for a while, a voice very familiar to Scarlett called out.
“Hey—you guys, wait a moment!” An energetic girl with a red bunny-ear headband jumped down from a cliffside.
The eyes of the four people present followed Amber’s jumping trajectory, their large eyes filled with surprise.
Zoey, in the live stream, immediately took screenshots rapidly.
After Amber landed, she first performed a knight’s salute, then introduced herself: “May the Anemo protect you, strangers.
I am Amber, Outrider of the Knights of Favonius.” “You are with Scarlett and Noelle, so you should have gotten to know each other before, but you two don’t seem like citizens of Mondstadt.
Please forgive me for asking again to confirm your identities.” If Lumine and Paimon were with other Knights of Favonius, Amber wouldn’t even ask, but since it was Scarlett and Noelle, Amber felt she should double-check.
After all…
Scarlett and Noelle were both quite naive and easily deceived!
This time, Lumine stepped forward.
She opened her mouth to explain to Amber: “We just arrived in Mondstadt today, and we came here to find my brother.
I am Lumine, and she is…
she is my best companion!” Paimon covered her little mouth, very happy: “Although we’ve only just met, I will definitely try my best to be a good guide!” “In any case, you are Travelers, right?
There are giant dragons roaming around Mondstadt now, so it’s better for you to enter the city as soon as possible!” Scarlett and Noelle stepped forward to greet her.
“Amber!” As another energetic girl in Mondstadt City, Amber had a very good relationship with Scarlett.
Even Scarlett’s use of the Wind Glider was personally taught by Amber.
Seeing Amber, Scarlett excitedly hugged her.
Although Amber’s gliding license was constantly being revoked, it had to be said that her flying ability was truly top-notch!
She was indeed the Gliding Champion of Mondstadt.
Amber was also very happy: “Scarlett, Noelle, why are you here?” Scarlett told Amber about them clearing monsters in the vicinity.
After listening, Amber decided to return to Mondstadt City with Scarlett and the others.
Paimon asked, “Don’t you have any other business outside the city this time?” “It’s fine, my reconnaissance mission is almost complete, and besides, I haven’t seen Scarlett and Noelle in a long time.” Thus, the four-person team increased to five.
The group chatted as they walked, the atmosphere very relaxed, and even Noelle participated in the conversation.
Scarlett was very familiar with Mondstadt and actively introduced delicious food and fun places in Mondstadt City to Lumine, making Paimon’s eyes light up and her mouth water.
“Paimon, we don’t have any money.” Lumine’s single sentence immediately brought the excited Paimon back to reality.
Suddenly, Amber spotted several Hilichurls not far away.
Scarlett’s eyes widened; she seemed to remember that they had already cleared this place?
“Affected by Stormterror, these monsters have started wandering near Mondstadt City.
Leave them to me!” Amber explained as she took out her bow—the Hunter’s Bow.
Seeing this, Lumine also took out her ‘legendary’ weapon, the Dull Blade.
Scarlett did not join the fight, because there were only a few Hilichurls in total, not even enough for Amber to shoot.
Lumine also rushed in and snagged two kills.
…
Live stream.
Unlike the events happening on the continent of Teyvat, Zoey, controlling Amber, aimed several arrows in a row but missed, and her character was even attacked by Hilichurls, losing a lot of HP.
So she directly switched to Lumine and used the Dull Blade to finish off the Hilichurls.
Ignoring the spam of laughing emotes in the chat, Zoey wondered when Scarlett could join the team.
I really want to know what her weapon is—
