Genshin, No sad stories

Heroic Spirit Summoning—you actually needed achievements to become a Heroic Spirit.

The people Jiang Chen had revived were all individuals who had made immense contributions to this land.

That was why they could be summoned.

Did this woman really think he could just revive anyone he wanted?

Did she think this was the Impure World Reincarnation technique or something?

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, La Signora finally understood.

So, it wasn't just random resurrection?

Still, the fact that he could bring people back to life was already shocking enough.

Even she had some thoughts about it.

But considering the conditions, she quickly gave up.

Besides, Jiang Chen wouldn't help her anyway.

There wasn't much else for Jiang Chen and Signora to talk about.

After having someone serve her tea, Jiang Chen simply went back to his own work.

Before long, Guizhong and Albedo arrived.

When Signora saw the two, her gaze lingered on Albedo for a moment, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.

Mondstadt's Chief Alchemist?

No.

It couldn't be him.

He wouldn't be here.

And this person's aura was different.

Though curious, she quickly shifted her attention to the other person.

This must be Guizhong.

An actual god.

Now she had seen two of them.

This was insane.

Liyue was not to be messed with right now.

"You're here."

"I'll need you to verify the items she brought."

Jiang Chen smiled as he explained the situation.

Hearing this, the two turned their attention to Signora.

Signora scoffed before speaking coldly.

"The items are outside."

"Follow me."

With that, she strode out.

She had no complaints about them inspecting the goods—it was standard procedure.

Jiang Chen followed her outside.

The Fatui were already waiting.

They stood guard over multiple crates.

These had been urgently transported from Snezhnaya.

At the same time, the Millelith were watching them like hawks.

After all, these guys were not trustworthy.

They had to be monitored.

Right now, the Fatui were public enemies in Liyue.

Everyone wanted to kick them a few times.

Though the Fatui were furious at the Millelith's stares, they didn't dare act out.

They couldn't afford to ruin the Harbinger's mission because of their own recklessness.

So, for now, they had to swallow their anger.

When Signora came out and saw the Fatui being treated like thieves, her expression darkened.

Since when had the Fatui ever been humiliated like this?

And yet, here they were.

"Open the crates."

Signora ordered coldly.

The Fatui immediately complied, unlocking the containers.

Signora then explained:

"These contain various alchemical research materials."

"Including the teleportation array blueprints you requested."

"However, that technology is still in its early stages."

"Don't expect too much."

Teleportation existed, but it wasn't mature yet.

It couldn't achieve long-distance travel.

If it could, they wouldn't have handed it over.

Right now, it was only good for short-range teleportation.

And the energy cost was enormous.

She didn't want Liyue thinking they'd been given a watered-down version.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen frowned.

But after thinking it over, he didn't argue.

As long as it could teleport people, it was fine.

They could research it further later.

Maybe they could even develop the Teleport Waypoints from the game.

Jiang Chen nodded at Albedo and Guizhong, signaling them to begin their inspection.

Albedo was the most enthusiastic.

The moment he heard about the alchemical research materials, his eyes lit up.

He immediately began flipping through the documents.

He could tell if they were legitimate.

Even if some parts were beyond his current understanding, his instincts were sharp.

As an artificial human, he had a natural talent for this.

Albedo quickly skimmed through the files.

Of course, he didn't check everything—just sampled them.

Guizhong did the same.

While they worked, Jiang Chen called over an assistant and whispered instructions.

The goods had arrived, so it was time to hand over Childe.

At the very least, they needed to prove he was still alive.

After a while, Childe was escorted down from the Jade Chamber.

With him were Ningguang and Ganyu.

Keqing was absent—she was currently supervising construction at the site.

Who else but her would personally oversee everything?

Jiang Chen just hoped she wouldn't work herself to death one day.

Otherwise, he'd have to turn her into a Heroic Spirit.

Human bodies were so fragile.

What a pain.

The moment Childe was brought down, Signora immediately looked him over.

Seeing his weak state, she couldn't resist mocking him.

"Ajax, you look pathetic."

"You've really outdone yourself this time."

"When we get back, you'd better think of a good explanation for Pantalone."

She savored his miserable appearance.

Childe could only respond with a bitter smile.

Go ahead, laugh.

He had already accepted his fate.

He knew how much trouble he'd caused.

Seeing the situation here, he realized the Tsaritsa had paid a heavy price to retrieve him.

Pantalone was probably seething with rage right now.

No one in the Fatui would want him back.

The only one who would save him was the Tsaritsa herself.

The thought made him deeply moved.

"Your Majesty, you're too kind!"

Signora scoffed at his expression but didn't say more.

With others present, she couldn't afford to humiliate the Fatui further.

Once Ningguang arrived, Signora handed over the remaining items—

Including the Northland Bank's transfer documents and various commercial agreements.

Everything Ningguang had demanded.

Looking through them, Ningguang's smile widened.

Good, good!

They had agreed to everything!

She was thrilled.

This deal was a jackpot!

Signora watched Ningguang's satisfied expression, her teeth clenched in fury.

The Fatui had suffered a major defeat in Liyue.

She would not forget this.

Whether it was Mondstadt or Liyue, the Fatui's plans kept failing.

Thinking about her humiliation in Mondstadt, Signora's face darkened.

Damn that Barbatos!

If she ever saw him again, she'd slap him twice for good measure.

Meanwhile, in a random corner of Liyue, Venti suddenly sneezed before rolling over and continuing to snore.
