"That man who claims to be a visitor from Liyue possesses immense strength, capable of instantly dispatching the ruins' guards. It's worth noting that he utilizes pure swordsmanship. Captain Qin, I believe it's necessary to keep an eye on him."

Amber frowned: "But King Hao doesn't look like a bad guy at all."

Kaiya spread his hands and said, "Bad guys don't have it written all over their faces. We should be wary of guests like this who have unknown origins. As the saying goes, we should be prepared for the worst. If I'm wrong, then everyone is happy."

"Are you going to test him?" Qin asked.

"It would be more accurate to say we're making friends, haha." Kaiya tossed Mora and walked out of the office.

Amber watched Kaia leave and looked at Qin: "Kaia won't do anything excessive, right?"

……

King Hao stood before the Adventurer's Guild, looking at Catherine with anticipation. He had already envisioned his future as an adventurer—finding a suitable adventure group, exploring the unknown world with his teammates, and taking on all sorts of dangers and challenges.

"Oh, dear, please don't read such a complicated text in the voice of Macabaka's narration?" King Hao felt that his ears were not feeling well. If he had known this earlier, he would not have wanted to join the adventure group. Now he was assigned to a task and the system was still beeping.

[Then I can change to a sweet little sister voice, right? ]

"..."

He reluctantly walked to the front desk and dryly read the lines prepared for him by the system: "Ms. Catherine, I am ready to become a real adventurer! Now, I want to find an adventure group that needs new members. Do you have any recommendations?"

King Hao's voice revealed a firmness and determination, and he was eager to embark on his own adventure as soon as possible.

For an extra 100 million experience points and free access to mall supplies...

Catherine smiled at the young and enthusiastic adventurer before her. She knew that King Hao's desire for adventure wasn't a passing impulse, but rather a deep-seated pursuit. She nodded gently, a glint of encouragement in her eyes.

Looking at Catherine's machine-like eyes and listening to the system's narration, King Hao was speechless.

"King Hao, we do have some adventure groups here that are recruiting new members. However, different adventure groups have their own characteristics and requirements. Some focus on combat skills, while others are more inclined to teamwork and exploration ability. You can first learn about the situation of each adventure group, and then make a choice based on your interests and specialties." Catherine explained patiently.

He nodded and was about to take the information when a loli voice sounded in his head:

King Hao nodded gratefully, knowing full well that Catherine's advice was crucial to him. He decided to carefully research the information about each adventuring group in order to find the one that best suited him. After all, joining the right adventuring group would have a profound impact on his growth.

[With full of expectations, King Hao turned and walked into the Adventurer's Association, starting his journey to find his ideal adventure group... I forgot, there's no way to get in there.]

King Hao: ...

System, please, could you please stop narrating? It's making me...

At this time, a passerby came over and said, "Are you looking for an adventure group to join? What a coincidence, our adventure group is also recruiting people."

Upon hearing this, King Hao ignored his electronic pet's stupid behavior and turned around: "Oh, that's a coincidence, your adventure group is..."

The man looked up and said, "Bennett Adventure Group!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man with beige hair and covered in wounds came up to him and said, "Is someone joining my adventuring group? I'm so lucky today! Oh, by the way, my name is Bennett, and I'm the leader of this adventuring group."

The man looked at King Hao and said, "We, the Bennett Adventure Group, have always played high-end games. We don't accept commissions that aren't extremely difficult. With the leader here, even F-rank commissions can become S-rank commissions. Are you tempted?"

"Um...it's okay." King Hao responded perfunctorily and turned his gaze to Bennett.

He actually encountered the legendary six-star god of war. Even King Hao had to admire him.

"You're lucky, Captain Bennett. I originally wanted to invite him to join the Knights Templar. He's a master who can kill the guards of the ruins with one click." Kaeya came to their side at some point.

King Hao looked at Kaia and was a little surprised. Although he planned to create an honorary knight for fun, Tongzi did not allow it.

"I'm afraid that's not appropriate. Although Liyue and Mondstadt are on good terms, it's not appropriate for an outsider like me to join the Knights Templar. Captain of the Cavalry, please don't joke like that." King Hao looked at Kaeya in surprise. Is this kid talking like a human being?

Kaia, however, acted completely unconcerned, shrugging his shoulders and looking nonchalant. "I don't think this is a big deal. Recruiting a martial arts master like Mr. Hao Wang into the Knights is truly a wonderful thing."

King Hao knew full well that despite Kaiya's casual appearance, he was actually a cunning and treacherous fellow. He wouldn't easily believe Kaiya's words. After all, he was very good at setting traps. If he took the bait, who knew what he would do.

"Kill the ruins guard instantly? That's too powerful, even more powerful than me." Bennett was shocked.

King Hao said to Bennett, "Captain, it seems the cavalry captain wants to talk to me more. Let's go on another adventure together sometime. Please set a time."

"Okay, you guys chat slowly, I'm leaving first." Bennett also left tactfully.

"A gift from an angel?" King Hao gestured.

Kaiya was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately: "Oh? Of course, it's my treat."

On the way, Kaia carefully observed King Hao and couldn't help but be secretly surprised. If he was not mistaken, this person should be in Mond for the first time. From his eyes, there was no sense of strangeness, but rather a sense of being indifferent to this place.

"I'd like a glass of dandelion wine. Oh, and a bottle of it too. I'll give it to my friend after I leave." After placing the order, King Hao found a secluded seat and sat down. He looked at Kaia and asked, "Captain of the Cavalry, would you like some?"

"No." Kaiya looked at King Hao, his heart becoming more complicated.

King Hao looked at Kaia's serious expression and said, "I can probably guess a little bit of your little thoughts, but I still want to say, you don't have to be so wary of me, Kaia Alberic."

Kaiya's eyes widened. What surprised him wasn't that King Hao knew his name, but the look in his eyes—it was definitely not the kind of look one would expect on a first meeting. He was shocked, but he didn't show it. He just smiled. "What are you talking about? If I were really wary of you, I would have been watching you all along, even when you were in the bathroom."

"Haha, okay, you are indeed cunning. Tell me what you want to know, such as my true identity, the purpose of coming to Mond and so on." King Hao also acted casually.
