So if you really go to bed very early, then the earthquake should have been stopped by Nasida before you were woken up by the shaking.
In this situation, it seems that Miss Shani doesn't actually go to bed very early as she claims.
However, only a minority of readers can spot the problem in these words; most readers simply read on without noticing anything amiss.
That's normal. At first glance, her words don't seem problematic, unless you've been suspicious of her from the beginning.
But readers have only just encountered this character in the story, so they wouldn't harbor any doubts.
The villager who followed Shani was named Jebari, who seemed to be a cook, a cook who couldn't make any money.
Although he doesn't earn much money, he still cooks for Isaac and his 'grandfather' from time to time.
Readers couldn't help but sigh, "He really is a good person. Perhaps the reason he can't make money is because he's a good person."
Yanfei, however, got a bit of PTSD after seeing this. She remembered a case where someone kindly brought food, but the recipient got sick and sued the good Samaritan.
This kind of case is the type that Yanfei can't stand the most. When Yanfei saw this part, she remembered that incident and had a headache.
Fortunately, the story took a little turn later on, preventing Yanfei from continuing to reminisce.
In the story, Seno seems to have noticed something and reminds the traveler to follow secretly, as there are two people whispering to each other.
[Shakan: "Have you heard? Our sovereign, the great Red King, is about to be resurrected!"]
The readers had indeed never heard of this, but the Mondstadt residents had heard that there was a strange fellow wandering around Wolfrun, and someone often talked about him.
Wait, that guy seems to have changed his lines lately?
The reason this person in the story said that the Red King was about to be resurrected was: "There are more mad scholars being sent here recently than before."
[Shakan: "I heard from Deliwati that before the Red King civilization was destroyed, all sorts of people on earth went mad. For some reason, 'madness' is always associated with the Red King."]
That's why the Red King and the Tree King can't see this story, otherwise they would really be laughing and crying at the same time. Do you think this "madness" is the power of the Red King?
It doesn't matter if they can't see it. Everyone will be amused and speechless when they see it later. The whole of Teyvat will be speechless.
I knew Lin Qiu had laid the groundwork early, but I didn't expect it to be this early.
Therefore, when information is incomplete, you should speak less; the more you speak, the easier it is to be betrayed.
Look at the saying, "Do you understand the Rock King Emperor better than I do?" The painful lesson is still fresh in my mind. Thanks to Hanxue, one person's death saved others from survival.
However, Shakan was not yet dead at this time, because no one knew whether his statement was problematic.
And even if there were, it wouldn't matter; it would just be a common person's misjudgment. The death of Han Xue Society was entirely due to his arrogance and overestimation of the Emperor himself.
In the story, Shakan believes that those mad scholars are sacrifices to the Red King, so the Red King must be resurrected!
Readers obviously don't believe this, as everyone remembers that it was said earlier that the Red King's resurrection was just a rumor spread by the Order of the Fathers.
The Mad Scholar was also exiled from the Church, so it's clear that all of this is related to the Church and has nothing to do with the Red King's resurrection.
However, Makan, who was chatting with Shakan, was unaware that this was a rumor and at this point also accepted this speculation.
In any case, the people of the desert think that the resurrection of the Red King is a good thing. With the Red King alive, there is a blue sky, and the desert can live a good life!
Shakan laughed loudly: "Go to hell, you city folks! Ha ha!"
The two got more and more into their conversation, and then Sino arrived.
"Tell me everything that just happened, from beginning to end."
"I have no patience. You heard me."
Without saying a word, Seno immediately unleashed his "Demon King Armor." After transforming, Seno exuded immense pressure, and the two desert people were so frightened that they immediately covered their heads and crouched down in defense.
Unlike the other two, the readers actually enjoyed it. The transformed Seno was really cool, so cool!
Why don't you two be a little tougher and go up and clash with Cyno? We really want to see how Cyno fights after he transforms.
It's such a shame there's only one illustration of Seno's transformation. Why don't you two work harder and make a few more?
It's only because the people involved don't know this that they would complain: "Anyway, it won't be you who die in the end, right?"
They weren't that tough; they decisively chose to back down.
[Shakan: "My lord, my lord, what...what do you want to know?"]
Shakan: I've already behaved myself, please let me go.
[Sino: "The Red King has been resurrected, what happened?"]
The rumor was spread by the Council of the Church, but as mentioned before, the Great Sage has always been wary of Seno, so Seno was completely unaware of this.
The traveler was in the know, but perhaps because she didn't fully trust Seno, she didn't share the information.
Blame it on Elhesen; his words were indeed effective, at least making it difficult for the traveler to believe either Seno or Elhesen.
Although Shakan in the story doesn't know it's a rumor, he confesses that he heard it in a tavern.
[Shakan: "That day I went drinking and heard a rumor that the madman would disappear and the Red King would soon be resurrected and reign over this place again."]
Sino looked at him coldly without saying a word, his eyes crackling with lightning.
[Makan roared in terror, "Confess! Confess now!"]
Shakan quickly told everyone he knew.
He told Seno that the radical Deliva had heard about this and that he actually intended to help the Red King resurrect and attack the sand wall.
In reality, Deliva was speechless. Although he had no intention of resurrecting the Red King, he was still helpless to see this guy so easily betray him.
He wasn't angry, since he and Shakan weren't exactly on good terms anyway, and being betrayed was perfectly reasonable.
In reality, he had no intention of resurrecting the Red King, partly because there was no such rumor about Sumeru at present.
On the other hand, it's because after the Grass God took power, he opened the entrance to the sand barrier, allowing the two sides to exchange resources.
Under these circumstances, the lives of desert people have truly improved, and everything, including daily necessities, is much easier to obtain than before.
There's even a young man named Kawi who brought people here to do infrastructure work. What kind of rebellion is that?
The purpose of reviving the Red King was to break through the sand barrier and obtain more resources. Now that we have the resources, why bother fighting anymore?
Just like Candice said, they just wanted to try to live their lives well.
Even if the radicals still want to conquer the rainforest, ordinary desert dwellers just want to live their lives well and will not follow them.
--------
Keqing's voice lines: About desert infrastructure
"It's really difficult. I gave some suggestions, but I don't know if they were helpful."
Chapter 585 The Three Sages?
In the past, the desert people thought that the Grass God and the Order of the Church shared the same attitude and ideas, but now they know that they are not at all, and the desert people have begun to lean towards the Grass God.
Of course, the current inclination is only in attitude, not in belief.
Returning to the story, Sino had already obtained the information he wanted, and after threatening the two of them not to leak it, he didn't make things difficult for them.
Paimon patted his chest: "That scared me to death! Seno is terrifying..."
Seno showed no reaction to Paimon's assessment, simply nodding calmly.
Paimon continued, "He didn't refute it at all, as if he was used to it. Has a lot of people said that to him before...?"
Look, Paimon is talking behind people's backs again. Little Paimon usually likes to use the 'team mic' to complain to the Traveler.
However, they seemed to have forgotten that Sino was now a teammate, and he could hear them through the team mic, so he reacted.
[Sino: "I heard you."]
Paimon immediately apologized: "I'm sorry!"
The traveler followed up with, "I'm sorry."
The two little cuties' reactions were hilarious, but Seno was stunned for a moment.
He even wondered if he had been too harsh. Why was everyone so flustered and apologizing?
Sino didn't mean to be mean to them; after thinking for a moment, she offered an explanation:
"...This is the job and responsibility of a disciplinary officer."
Yes, Seno is only like this when he is 'Grand Disciplinary Officer Seno'; he doesn't look like this in other roles.
At this point, readers didn't know what Sino was like in real life and genuinely thought he was some kind of aloof male god.
Whether it's weapons, personality, or height, readers at this moment feel that he and Xiao are somewhat similar.
After Cyno's true colors were revealed, people lost that feeling. They couldn't imagine Xiao telling lame jokes at all! Just thinking about it was chilling!
If Xiao were like Seno, would he tell a lame joke to lighten the mood on Lantern Festival?
Doesn't this seem like a fly collecting honey—pretending to be crazy (like a bee) to Zhongli and Wendy?
It's reasonable for the two of them to act foolish, and for Xiao to play along and pretend to be crazy, but the awkwardness of the scene might shift from Xiao to the readers.
In short, the characters in the story have found some clues, but that's not enough. Seno and the traveler plan to go to the mad scholar's house again, which requires asking Isaac.
Perhaps because he had just been rated as 'fierce' by Paimon, Seno's voice was exceptionally gentle when he questioned Isaac, showing that he was genuinely listening.
Isaac knew where the mad scholar lived, and he immediately led the way to the mad scholar's residence.
There are only a few tents here; they're barely enough to keep out the wind and rain, let alone provide shelter. It would be a miracle if they weren't blown away by the wind.
Here, the traveler smelled a familiar scent—the incense that had initially confused her when she first arrived in Sumeru.
What's outrageous is that no one else could smell the incense except for the travelers themselves; it was practically a special attack on travelers.
Paimon immediately asked with concern, "How are you?! Are you dizzy? Are you alright?"
Paimon really cares about the Traveler, so the Traveler dotes on her and won't allow anyone other than himself to bully her.
Not to mention Paimon, even Seno, who has a very sensitive sense of smell, couldn't detect this scent. It just goes to show how incredibly sensitive travelers can be.
However, after being reminded by the traveler, Seno began to focus on his sense of smell and was able to smell the odor.
This also shows how sensitive the traveler is; let's just say she's the type who can't handle even a breath blown into her ear.
Paimon explained to Seno, "This guy was knocked unconscious by this smell before, but was later revived by the Tinari and underwent a long period of special training..."
What Seno heard: XXXXXXXXX, Tina, XXXXX.
[Sino: "You guys actually know Tinari."]
After learning that the Traveler knew Tinari, Seno's trust in the Traveler increased dramatically.
Since this person has been verified by Tinari, Seno felt that the Traveler could be completely trusted. Even if he didn't trust the Traveler, he should trust Tinari.
Now the trust between the two sides is increasing, but now is not the time to cultivate feelings. The priority is to investigate the surrounding area to see if there are any clues.
Finding clues isn't the Traveler's forte, but Seno is exceptionally good at it.
Even the smallest traces hidden by the sandstorm could be found by Sino, and he quickly discovered the footprints of an adult male who had left.
There was only one person's footprint, which means that Isaac's grandfather left on his own.
Just as Paimon was lured away with delicious food, someone lured away Isaac's grandfather with incense.
Seeing this, Funina laughed. This little Paimon is such a loser; he actually got lured away by delicious food.
The characters in the story have found clues, and now it's time to share the information. Candice and Desia are chatting with their best friends, but Elhesen is nowhere to be seen.
We don't need to worry about Elhesen; he's a top-tier free agent. The others can just share information.
Just as everyone was sharing information, someone was secretly eavesdropping from behind the bushes in the distance.
Dixia had actually noticed this person's existence, but she didn't expose him and continued chatting.
When the people at the tavern mentioned the news of the Red King's resurrection, Desia said that she knew those people too.
"They're just 'Round-Eyed Butcher' Ngur, 'Pockmarked Bandit' Deliwa, and 'Bearded Scimitar' Jebari. These guys are all infamous."
The reader frowned. Three people? Could this be the Three Sages?
Jebarry frowned. Me? Me too, a radical? When did that happen?
Jebari's wife frowned. "What kind of radical group did he join behind my back? We're already struggling to make ends meet; what if he loses his life too?!"
"Beard and scimitar"?! Where did you get a beard and a scimitar?! I'll pluck all your beards tonight!
