Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"How is this possible? How could this little girl have a musket?" he said in shock.

In my impression, only Linhui’s army or police can own muskets, but the girl in front of me not only has a gun, but the shape is more exquisite than ordinary muskets. Could she be a military member?

But he was wrong.

"I don't care why you are here, but if you dare to damage a piece of tree bark here today, I will make you bleed on the spot!" said Karen.

"You... you think I'm afraid of you?" Mr. Chen spoke sternly, but his eyes unconsciously glanced at the rifle in Kailin's hand, clearly lacking confidence. Those burly men who had previously flaunted their power now shrank back, not daring to move forward rashly.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter whether you are afraid or not. What matters is that your wishful thinking today is wrong." Karen stared at Mr. Chen coldly, raising the musket in her hand steadily and pointing it in his direction.

At this moment, Mo Yan stood aside, waving his hands and jokingly said, "Alas, they've hit a wall by provoking Kailin. Our young lady's temper is not so easy to control."

"That's true." Zhao Heng nodded in agreement.

"What? Isn't what I said clear enough? All of you, step back!" Karen's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty. Her cold eyes swept across everyone, making them shiver.

Chen's face was turning pale and blue. He had originally thought that today's events would go smoothly according to his plan, but he hadn't expected a sudden change. He gritted his teeth, weighing the pros and cons in his mind. If he really fought hard, not to mention the lethality of the musket, just considering the power behind this girl, if he really angered her, he would probably suffer no good consequences.

The burly men looked at him, seemingly awaiting his instructions. Beads of sweat formed on Chen's forehead. If he retreated now, his prestige among these men would be severely diminished. But if he didn't retreat, that musket would immediately pierce his head.

"Who... who are you trying to scare? Do you think you can scare me with just a broken gun?" Mr. Chen shouted, pretending to be calm, but there was a slight tremor in his voice that was hard to conceal.

Karen sneered and said, "It seems you won't cry until you see the coffin." After that, her finger lightly rested on the trigger of the rifle. The action seemed careless, but it made the people on the opposite side nervous.

Bang bang bang!

After hearing four gunshots, Chen was frightened and fell to the ground, leaving four clearly visible bullet holes in the sand at his feet.

"Wow!"

The man surnamed Chen yelled, and those burly men were frightened by the sudden gunshots and ran away in panic. The little courage they had just been holding on to disappeared in an instant.

Kailin looked at Chen who fell to the ground and said contemptuously: “Now, do you still think I am scaring you?”

Chen's face turned pale, his body trembling uncontrollably, and he stammered, "You...you really dared to shoot!"

"Of course, I never need a reason to shoot. Why, do you still want to try? I can guarantee that the next shot will be shot through your head!"

"You...you crazy woman!" Chen said tremblingly, his eyes full of fear and anger.

"Hmph, I've been merciful enough to despicable villains like you who want to destroy other people's achievements." Kailin responded coldly, still pointing the musket steadily at him, "Why don't you leave now!"

At this point, Chen quickly stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll give you some more time to think about it."

He rolled and crawled away, leaving a message as he fled: "Don't think I'm afraid of you. I'll come back tomorrow. If you're not ready to pay the money, just wait!"

"Huh?" Kailin was stunned, clearly thinking about the other person's attitude. "Alright, you're still so arrogant at this time, believe it or not, I'll shoot you into a honeycomb!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the other party had already gone away.

At this moment, Mo Yan came to Kailin and asked, "Hey, are you just going to let them get away like that?"

"Yes, if they are well prepared, we will be in big trouble if they come again tomorrow." Zhao Heng said.

Kailin frowned and said, "But I just fired the gun to scare them and make them retreat. Who would have thought that Chen would not give up and even dared to come again tomorrow."

"So what should we say now? It shouldn't be a problem to catch up with him on your motorcycle, right?" Mo Yan said with his hands inserted.

"Forget it." At this moment, Lan Tianhui walked over and said, "Mr. Chen's ancestors had a friendship with our master. I personally don't want to do anything too extreme."

"Absolutely? Please, my Dr. Radiant, don't you see their attitude when they came here today? You don't want to embarrass them, but that doesn't mean they don't want to embarrass you." Karen said.

At this moment, Zi Xuan lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then asked, "By the way, Dr. Tianhui, who exactly is this Mr. Chen, and what is going on with his so-called debt?"

Lan Tianhui hesitated for a moment and sighed: "This is a long story. How about this, you are all very tired today, go back to the institute first, and then I will slowly tell you."

Everyone nodded and followed Lan Tianhui back to the research institute.

As soon as they entered the research institute, everyone gathered around a large table, their eyes focused on Lan Tianhui. Lan Tianhui cleared his throat and slowly spoke:

"Well, Mr. Chen's real name is Chen Site, and he also has a resounding business name, Scott. One hundred years ago, his great-grandfather, Chen Tingyu, was a wealthy businessman in Sangang Bay. My teacher told me that he was the one who took the initiative to seek out our master, saying he happened to have a piece of wasteland in the desert that could be used to build an experimental base. This land is what you see today."

"So that's how it is. Lin Yu found the land first, and then started the planting experiment. I thought he just found a place randomly at that time." Zhao Heng said.

Lan Tianhui smiled and said, "Of course not. Although this place was abandoned in the past, many people cultivated land here before it became a desert. It was only because the ground was polluted that nothing could be grown here, so it became a barren desert."

"My teacher told me that my great-grandmaster traveled extensively in search of sandy land suitable for planting, but people didn't understand or accept his approach, so he was turned away. That's when Chen Tingyu approached him and sold him the land and the deed here for 30 Yan coins. Since then, my great-grandmaster, along with my teacher and other students, has invested a tremendous amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources here, and passed it down from generation to generation, gradually developing this oasis into what it is today."
