Genshin Impact: I am the Great General of Liyue

At dawn, after everyone woke up and had breakfast, they set off for the Temple of the Lion of the South Wind. They opened treasure chests along the way and soon reunited with Lisa.

"Oh, my little cutie."

When Huiyuan heard Lisa call her "little cutie," she felt incredibly cheesy. Who could resist being called "little cutie" by a mature woman?

After handing over the duties to Sister Lisa, we entered the temple.

Lisa sensed the elemental flow and said, "Sure enough, there's a very strong elemental reaction deep within this temple."

Dvalin used this to restore his strength, and Huiyuan put the wind element egg into the Eye of God space, so that no elemental power leaked out.

Moreover, it has emitted a lot of wind elements in the space for a long time. If it were released all at once, it should be able to blow Paimon away.

Along the way, Lisa and Ying taught each other a lot about Teyvat, and in the process, they found the wind elemental egg.

After Huiyuan took it, Lisa looked at Huiyuan with a slightly interested gaze and said, "That's quite a good ability."

As they walked out of the temple, Lisa continued her educational session.

The East Wind Dragon, the South Wind Lion, the North Wind Wolf, and the West Wind Eagle are the guardians of the four winds of Mondstadt and the servants of Barbatos, the god of wind.

Dvalin, the Wind Dragon, is none other than the Stormterror. The reason the plan only requires visiting three temples is because of the power of the four winds; Dvalin does not need to borrow its own wind.

Dvalin attacked Mondstadt because of hatred, and the interference of the Abyss amplified this hatred infinitely.

About a century ago, the entire continent experienced a chaotic era. Dark forces spread and corrupted everything in their path.

During that period, barbarians proliferated and monsters ravaged the land. People could only live within city walls, as the wilderness was fraught with danger.

Mondstadt faced immense hardship during that period. The Lionfang Knights' lineage remained vacant due to a lack of qualified members, and the Knights of Favonius were also dwindling in numbers due to the arduous battles. At this time, the powerful corrupted behemoth, the poisonous dragon "Durin," attacked Mondstadt.

The people's prayers awakened the wind god, who summoned Dvalin. As Mondstadt's last guardian, Dvalin engaged in a fierce battle. The outcome was obvious: the massive dragon skeleton of Dragonspine Mountain was Dvalin's remains.

People once believed that Dvalin would appear when needed to protect Mondstadt. But in times of peace, the belief in the four winds of protection has been lost, and the corresponding temples have fallen into disrepair.

The loss of faith caused people to forget the appearance of Dvalin, the Wind Dragon. When we discovered that the Stormterror fighting the Knights was Dvalin, a hatred-driven conflict had already formed, one that could not be reconciled.

It protects humanity when it needs it.

When people don't need it, they forget it.

After closing the system's book panel, Huiyuan and his group left the temple. After taking the three eggs, the storm in Mondstadt stopped.

After Paimon and Ying finished talking about Dvalin's story, Huiyuan said, "Let's go back to Mondstadt. I'll treat you to dinner."

After recovering from Dvalin's story, Paimon exclaimed with renewed energy, "Hmm, I want a super-sized portion of honey-sauce carrot gravy!"

Eat more delicious food, and your bad mood will stay away from Paimon.

Paimon suddenly remembered something and said to Huiyuan, "By the way, Litian, why haven't you turned back to your old self yet? Is it because you can't turn back after using your power? I noticed you haven't participated in any battles along the way."

What? I've actually gotten used to this state and forgotten that my skin has cooled down.

After fooling Paimon, Huiyuan said to the system, "System, please explain why my actions and speaking habits have changed after switching to this skin, and why I've unconsciously gotten used to this state."

The system said in her familiar AI voice, "Slight adjustments have been made to prevent the host from taking any bold actions."

"Since you can do that, could you be subtly changing my mind?"

"No, according to the rules of our world, no living being's subjective thoughts, way of thinking, or mental state may be modified."

"So, does strengthening this mental attribute change my mental state?"

"No, that's just to slightly enhance your brain function. You'll still be yourself, you won't become a puppet."

"I have another question."

"Host, please speak."

Why was I chosen as the host?

The system responded: "Our world loves peace, but there are too few peaceful and intelligent civilizations, so we will choose hosts to increase our membership. There are two conditions for choosing a host. First, the host must be a creature on the verge of death. Second, the host must possess the trait of yearning for peace."

"I understand. After switching back to the previous state, will there be a cool-down period when I use the skin again?"

"No, I was just kidding you when I said there was a cooldown period for switching skins. I just wanted to have some fun."

"System, I'm ready to fight."

"Couldn't hit them, so they ran away."

After that, no matter how Huiyuan called the system, there was no response. It wasn't until he calmed down that the system appeared and gave him a stage mission reward of 1 million Mora and the auxiliary skill "Meow Meow Blessing".

After the storm subsided, the Deer Hunter Restaurant reopened. Two beautiful girls, a white floating object, and a cat sat at a round table.

Huiyuan looked at Paimeng wolfing down his food and said, "Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

Mimi also scolded, "Meow, meow meow. (That's right, can't you be a little more ladylike, like me?)"

With a piece of roasted meat in his mouth and another in his hand, Paimon was about to grab another when he said, "I...delicious."

Ying smiled and looked at Paimon, saying, "I really can't do anything with you."

After finishing their meal, Huiyuan said goodbye to Ying. Switching back to her previous appearance and retrieving her own little bird, she returned to the inn and found Sun Wu and Chen Ping'an, saying, "Help me write a letter and send it to Tianquan Star."

Huiyuan wrote a letter to let Ningguang know that he was safe and sound, recounting the events of the past few days and saying that he had something good to give her when he returned to Liyue. Chen Ping'an and Huiyuan then delivered the letter.

After receiving the 100 million Mora reward from the system, Huiyuan considered what to buy. He had previously taken several rare gems from the caravan for trading and exchanged them directly for Mora through the system, earning several million. Combined with what he already had, spending the 100 million wouldn't cause him to run out of Mora.

I really want to buy them all. Oh well, I'll buy them if I need them.

Hunyuan wandered around Mondstadt, feeling quite relaxed.

"Big brother, big brother."

A tender voice came from beside me.

Are you from Liyue?

Turning around, I saw a little girl with somewhat tattered clothes and a hood.

"I'm from Liyue, little sister. What can I do for you?"

The girl was a little shy, but she still mustered up her courage and said, "I heard that people in Liyue all know martial arts. I want to know if it's true..."

"Not everyone can do it, but I know a little bit. Would you like to see?"

"miss you!"

After arriving in Mondstadt, Huiyuan often studied knowledge or martial arts while traveling. Although she had never practiced, she could imitate the martial arts books and demonstration videos she had seen on the system panel after activating the combat assist function.

However, this is only for imitation. If you want to fight in real combat, you still need to practice or rely on combat experience to know when to use the corresponding moves and how to counter them.

After instantly donning a suit of armor, he crafted a long staff using the Geo element. He then began to wield it by the fountain next to the Deer Hunter's Restaurant.

"Okay."

A surge of wind elemental energy caused the water in the fountain to float. The long stick spun rapidly, causing the water to float along the path of its movement.

Huiyuan danced faster and faster, the long staff in her hand radiating a wind elemental glow. The water didn't fly around randomly; instead, drawn by the wind, it swirled around Huiyuan, moving with the staff.

The water gathered, then dispersed, and then gathered again. Finally, Huiyuan thrust the water with his long stick, and the gathered water was blasted into a mist by the powerful wind element, forming a rainbow.

"Wow, brother is so amazing!"

The little girl jumped and waved happily.

"Little sister, what's your name?"

"My name is Lina, what's yours, brother?"

Huiyuan removed his armor set, then casually put the staff into the Eye of God's space and said, "My name is Huiyuan, let's be friends."

"Okay, from now on we're good friends!"

After the onlookers dispersed, a serious voice came: "Lina, it's time to go."

The voice came from a woman dressed in a Fatui uniform, who looked at Lina with obvious impatience. Lina glanced at the Fatui member, quietly said goodbye to Huiyuan, and silently followed.

The Fatui member's hair color was different from Lina's, and he didn't look like a Mondstadt person.

The Fools of Winterfell's army is spread throughout the entire continent of Teyvat. With such a large number of soldiers, they must need to recruit from other countries.

Because of poverty, it's not uncommon for families to sell their children, and nobody cares. Either it's too well-hidden to be discovered, or even if it is, the children are too strong to fight off the Fools, and by the time they go back for help, the children have already been taken away.

Children who are sold or homeless orphans may be captured and used for human experiments if they disobey orders.

Although Huiyuan desperately wanted to save Lina, as the general of Liyue, it was inappropriate for him to attack the Winter's envoy within Mondstadt. Taking action could easily escalate into a diplomatic incident.

If we were outside the city, we wouldn't have so many concerns.
