Chapter 50
The Midfield Bomb Game Begins

【Ningguang: Let's be honest, those two were definitely talking like old friends.】

One god unleashed water, without a single glimmer of light from their hair.

The other, with words like a disgruntled woman, pouring their heart out, only to take the Godheart and leave.

【Muchen: There's one more thing!】

【Keqing: What?】

【Muchen: No one's saving Paimon? She's frozen into an ice ball!】

【Paimon: ???】

【Dori: Hahaha】

【Nahida: I saw that too.】

【Yoimiya: I saw it too. She flew out as an ice cube!】

【Furuina: Hahaha, she's still moving in the distance of the screen.】

【Jean: The Knights of Favonius are here. The Fatui will never get away with this in Mondstadt.】

This was a live broadcast of other fate lines. Seeing the story in the broadcast, Jean's expression was serious. It was absolutely impossible for her to let anything happen to Venti in reality.

It was happening in Mondstadt. It was a huge embarrassment for the Knights of Favonius.

【Lisa: Oh, our acting Grand Master is angry. It looks like we've got work to do.】

【Kaeya: Don't worry, I'll be watching, Acting Grand Master.】

【Sucrose: Everyone, the broadcast continues.】

It's unclear how long it had been.

Barbara: "Honour Knight, you're awake?"

It was night now, and Barbara was by his side.

The Traveler sat up, immediately asking about Venti.

Barbara explained that she had found them unconscious outside the Church and had used her elemental power to heal them.

But Barbara's healing had no effect on Venti, and he had gone to the symbol of Mondstadt's heroes.

Barbara: "Acting Grand Master Jean returned to the Knights of Favonius headquarters just now. She said she's going to find evidence."

Jean was going to gather evidence, to hold the Fatui accountable.

The Traveler and Paimon immediately headed to the Windrise.

Venti was standing under the big tree.

"Is everything alright, Barbatos?"

"It's alright in the story."

Venti still had his usual carefree smile.

The Traveler asked what a Godheart was, and he explained: "Every owner of a Vision is someone who has the potential to become a god. They are therefore known as the Original God, and they have the qualification to ascend to Celestia."

【Kuki Shinobu: We all have Visions, right?】

【Kaeya: Not just a magic organ that guides elemental power, there's this effect too.】

【Arataki Itto: This old man can become a god? No way, it's boring. Gods are stuck in that... Tenryou Commission, not fun at all. This old man doesn't want to be a god.】

【Dori: Itto bro, your thoughts are quite forward-thinking.】

【Koyuki: The Agents all seem to have Visions, right?】

【Noelle: We all have the potential to become gods? I have a Geo Vision.】

【Muchen: That means... Geo Archon!】

【Noelle: Eh? No no no.】

【Keqing: Pffft -】

【Ningguang: Pffft -】

【Beidou: Hahaha】

【Kaeya: Hahaha】

【Nahida: Muchen, you're a genius at nicknames.】

【Muchen: Just kidding. Don't be mad, everyone from Liyue.】

【Keqing: You're still...】

【Ningguang: Our Jade Chamber has the closest relationship with Muchen.】

【Keqing: Ningguang, you're calling me out again. Muchen's said a lot of good things about you.】

【Ningguang: I have too.】

Venti continued explaining. The Vision was a primary organ. The Godheart was the link between the god and Celestia, a shared resonance.

Venti also spoke about the Signora. He seemed to know her well.

He mentioned that they were... granted god-like authority by the Tsaritsa of Snezhnaya, acquiring power that transcended mortals.

Venti: "Although the relationships between the Seven Archons aren't all that harmonious, I didn't expect that she would be trying to steal the Godhearts of other Archons."

He talked about some things from the past.

Venti: "Traveler, you have to find all seven Archons. You'll probably encounter many difficulties on your journey. Go to Mondstadt's neighboring nation first - the Geo Archon there is different from me. They directly govern the entirety of Liyue."

"We're going to Liyue!"

"The Geo Archon has always been by our side!"

"The Archon guides us."

Venti: "Teyvat's birds, poems, and cities, Tsaritsa, Fools, and monsters... they're all part of your journey."

Venti: "The end doesn't mean everything. Before you reach the end, use your eyes and observe this world."

「Prologue story broadcast ends」

"The first chapter of the story is over."

"Now Mondstadt knows how to solve the problem of the Stormterror."

"Trust Acting Grand Master Jean and the others."

「This broadcast is now on a mid-game break」

「The mid-game Original God Star competition will begin. This mid-game is called - Timed Bomb」

「Timed Bomb game rules: Each of the seven nations will select a representative to participate in the game. Other representatives will be on standby.」

「A special timed Boom Boom Bomb will appear. The bomb is set to explode in 60 to 200 seconds. Each nation's agent will take turns setting the time.」

「The agents cannot see the time. They can only count down in their heads. The bomb must be held for at least three seconds before being passed on to the next nation's agent.」

「If the bomb explodes in someone's hand, they will lose 2 points. The other five nations will gain 1 point. The agent who set the bomb will gain 3 points.」

「The bomb can be precisely defused. When the agent yells 'Defuse' - if the bomb's detonation time is less than 8 seconds from the actual time, then they will successfully defuse the bomb.」

「Successful defusal will award 4 points, the other five nations will get 0 points, and the agent who set the bomb will lose 2 points.」

【Klee: Klee wants to play the game too, but there are so many words.】

【Collei: This... I don't understand.】

【Eula: It's like that pass-the-parcel game.】

【Marjorie: Natlan has a similar game.】

【Yun Jin: It seems simple after watching once.】

「Public Broadcast, please vote and select your first agent. Please select within thirty seconds.」

Who plays first, is up to you all.

If you lose, it's your own fault for choosing that person.

Everyone clicked on the screen in front of them.

The voting results came quickly.

「The first agents from each nation are」

「Kaeya, Muchen, Ei, Dori, Furuina, and Marwick, the Captain.」
