Genshin Impact: After entering the card pool, I kicked away the knife and stabbed myself

“Citizens of Liyue, distinguished guests from Inazuma who have come from afar, we gather together at this glorious moment of the Lantern Festival to witness a historic moment - the official establishment of diplomatic relations between Liyue and Inazuma. I am Ningguang, the Celestial Power Star among the Seven Stars of Liyue. On behalf of Liyue Port, I would like to express my warmest welcome and most sincere greetings to all the friends from Inazuma who have come from afar!

The Lantern Festival, as an annual traditional festival in Liyue, symbolizes reunion, blessing and hope. Today, we light up the lanterns not only to celebrate this traditional festival, but also to illuminate the road of friendship between Liyue and Inazuma, and to jointly meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.

……

Liyue, this rich and beautiful land... Inazuma, blah blah blah...

We meet again today for a common goal. It is a prophecy that an unprecedented disaster is about to befall Teyvat.

Facing the impending disaster predicted by the prophecy, Liyue and Inazuma chose to join hands and deal with it together. We believe that only by uniting together can we overcome all difficulties and challenges. The establishment of diplomatic relations will not only deepen the friendship and mutual trust between the two countries, but also lay a solid foundation for us to jointly resist disasters and protect our homeland.

……

Here, I would like to thank Balabala in particular...

……

Finally, let us light up the sea lanterns in our hands together, pray for the friendship between Liyue and Inazuma, and for the peace and tranquility of Teyvat. May the light of the sea lanterns illuminate our way forward, and may the friendship between our two countries burn forever like this bright light! "

"disaster?"

"Don't you know? The news has already been released."

"There have indeed been many disasters recently. Could it be that the Emperor was also in trouble because of that disaster..."

"Hush, be careful what you say."

Most people are actually already prepared, and some people didn't know the news before, but there's nothing to be afraid of.

As for the sense of relaxation of the people of Liyue, even if the sky falls, there is Ningguang to hold it up.

As for the Inazuma people, Inazuma is now thriving under the rule of General Raiden who was moved by the resistance army, and the public's trust in them has risen sharply. So, similar to the above, as long as the general is around, everything will be fine!

The people of Liyue would only be scared when the conspiracy theory about the Emperor was brought up, but it was quickly refuted by saying that the Emperor's tribulation happened a long time ago and that the Emperor died because of the tribulation and it had nothing to do with the disaster.

But there was another group of people, most of whom were feeling nervous, and that was the Thousand Rock Army.

“Although my superiors have already revealed that there may be disasters in the future, it’s still different when Lady Ningguang admits it herself…”

"So this is actually the reason why we have to increase the number of overtime staff during the Lantern Festival... I hate overtime."

"Shh, you two, don't talk to each other while on duty."

Among the Qianyan Army, there is a more special group, and that is the soldiers who returned from five hundred years ago.

Thanks to Walnut's efforts, most of them have resolved their worries at this time, but some of them are still unable to completely resolve their worries. They just accompany their comrades to the port to watch the largest Lantern Festival in history.

However, I didn’t expect to learn from Ningguang that the truth behind the establishment of diplomatic relations between Liyue and Inazuma was actually because of a disaster in the future.

"disaster……"

They looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

When this so-called disaster comes, they will all rush to the front line without hesitation, just like they did before.

And Hu Lan, the only one who knew that they had received Luo's blessing, said: Could it be that... this is the purpose of True Lord Xu? To give us returning soldiers strength and continue to protect Liyue.

On the stage, Ningguang, who had announced the prophecy and the establishment of diplomatic relations, slowly stepped down. For some reason, she let out a long sigh.

Establishing diplomatic relations...it's a done deal, there's no chance to regret now.

Is this really the right move? Putting all your chips on one person...

No matter what, since the Emperor did not step forward to stop it, and the application for establishing diplomatic relations was initiated by General Lei Dian who knew more than himself, he should plan the future layout.

"It's strange, why did Ningguang choose to announce this news at the Lantern Festival? It seems that no one is very interested in celebrating the Lantern Festival anymore..." Paimeng expressed his surprise.

Zhongli said calmly, "The Lantern Festival is not a holiday or a happy festival, but a festival of reunion and hope. Announcing such a big event during the Lantern Festival will only make everyone more determined to protect Liyue."

"Huh? Zhongli, when did you come? Why do I feel like you all are missing today?"

Zhongli smiled and said, "Perhaps you were so absorbed in listening to what Ningguang said that you didn't notice me coming."

[I'm afraid it's "Xu Tan" pretending to be him again]

[No, it should just be that Zhongli needs to show up for the Lantern Festival.]

"But maybe there are more reasons than what I just mentioned—"

Michiyo: "It was Luo's request. It seems to be related to the resurrected Thousand Rock Army."

Another guy suddenly appeared, Paimonhan said, "Is that so... No, Chiyo, why are you not sitting in the front with Kitsaigong and the others, and coming to find us?"

"You have to sit properly there. I can't stand that. I won't join them, haha~"

After Ningguang left the stage, the host came on stage:

"Thank you, Master Ningguang, for your speech... But let's put aside all the unpleasant things for now... The celebration has officially begun. Let us welcome Mr. Yun Jinyun to bring us his first show - "A Thousand Rocks Are Solid"!"

……

"Mr. Yun is really on stage!"

"To be honest, I came here just for this. Otherwise, I really can't imagine what the meaning of this celebration is. I will watch every play of Mr. Yun."

"It is said that Mr. Yun will perform two brand new plays this time. One is a play to praise the ancient Qianyan Army, which is now called "Qianyan Solid", and the other is "The Goddess Splits the View". Both are plays written by Mr. Yun's father himself with great effort. I have been looking forward to it and have not slept well for several nights."

"Hey, look! Mr. Yun is on stage!"

……

“Is this referring to us?”

"seems like it."

"Why doesn't it seem to be similar to our experience?"

"As for drama, we have to adapt some things, so it's normal to have some discrepancies."

“These are two completely different things.”

"There's no other way. The writing and rehearsal of the script cannot be completed in just a dozen days. If we write it in advance, we won't know our experience... Ah, is this talking about you, Qingming?"

"Oh my goodness, this is exactly the same experience as mine."

"Hu Lan Hu Lan, don't be sleepy, the drama above has come to you! What is being said is exactly the same as yours."

"Ah... ah?"

"Could it be those girls who did this?"

"Who? How many? Isn't it just one? That child is really lively and cute."

"Haha, it seems I am luckier."

"Brother Hu Lan, don't keep us in suspense."

"No, Brother Qingming must know it too, hehehe, tell me quickly, otherwise..."

But no matter whether they were watching the fun or the soldiers who were fighting, they all paid attention to listening to Yun Jin's performance on the stage.

Because they know that Liyue has them in her heart.

And how could they, because of their personal emotions, entrust Liyue to others, while indulging themselves in old dreams of the past and ignoring the dangers that will come to Liyue in the future?
