Chapter 53
Carry Me, General

With 92 seconds left before the explosion, Mu Chen had already won.

Because the highest setting was 100 seconds.

【Yae Miko: Oh my, it seems Shadow has been seen through by Mu Chen, the cutie, betting on her possible 100-second setting】

「Liyue Agent Mu Chen Disarms Bomb」

Opening it, the true setting was indeed 100 seconds.

「Bomb Disarmed Successfully」

【Kamisato Ayato: Yae Miko has been guessing 100 seconds from the very beginning, hasn't she?】

【Sangonomiya Kokomi: As expected of the General's retainer, she understands her so well】

【Yoimiya: So amazing, why?】

【Yae Miko: It's not me who's amazing, I'm just familiar with Shadow's personality. I just didn't expect him to guess Shadow's thoughts as well. He definitely has some understanding of our General】

Only eternity is closest to Celestia.

The largest number is likely Shadow's thought.

“Wow! Mu Chen is awesome!”

“He disarmed it!”

“We made a killing!”

“He really dared to gamble, I saw sweat on Mu Chen's forehead.”

“Who dares to be sure?”

“It's all about the gamble.”

“So amazing.”

“When it reached 80 seconds, I almost stopped breathing.”

Shadow looked at Mu Chen, even with her emotionless face, the gaze of the Raiden Shogun…

【Yae Miko: Hahaha, looks like Shadow isn't happy about losing】

【Kujou Sara: Yae Miko just wants to see the General make a fool of herself, right?】

【Yae Miko: Shadow's puffed-up appearance, not bad, not bad】

Marvika: “He dares to gamble, not bad.”

Captain: “He's very courageous.”

「Mondstadt 4 points, Liyue 8 points, Inazuma 0 points, Sumeru 2 points, Fontaine -1 point, Natlan 2 points, Snezhnaya -1 point」

“Liyue is far ahead!”

“We're going to win.”

“Only the top three get stars, right?”

“Go Hydro Archon!”

“Oh no, oh no!”

“At least let's secure third place!”

The fourth round's time setting remained from 30 to 100 seconds.

Dori's design this time was 90 seconds.

After walking two rounds, the Captain disarmed the bomb at 75 seconds.

The righteous and incorruptible Captain was blown away again.

“Captain… fell!”

“For the sake of catching up, there's no choice.”

“Only by disarming the bomb can we catch up.”

“I declare Snezhnaya is the last place in the game.”

There are only two rounds left, unless they disarm the bomb both times, the top three is hopeless.

The sixth round was set by the Pyro Archon Marvika, her 49-second setting was not guessed by Mu Chen.

It exploded in Mu Chen's hands.

Mu Chen: “I was still thinking around 60 seconds.”

Furiona saw Mu Chen was also blown black, she laughed hahaha.

“Here comes our chance!”

“Mondstadt is catching up!”

“Mu Chen got tricked.”

The penultimate round.

「Mondstadt 6 points, Liyue 7 points, Inazuma 3 points, Sumeru 5 points, Fontaine 2 points, Natlan 5 points, Snezhnaya -2 points」

Snezhnaya no longer has any hope.

“Go, General, we'll go all out disarming the bomb.”

“Pyro Archon, stay calm, we won't be in the top three if we don't disarm the crocodile?”

“Mu Chen, play it safe.”

“As long as we don't get blown up, we can secure second and fight for first.”

【Keqing: Mu Chen, come on, stay calm】

【Yae Miko: Shadow, disarm, disarm, disarm】

【Marranne: Pyro Archon, go, go, go】

【Amber: Kaeya, come on】

【Sangonomiya Kokomi: Pay attention to observation】

Mu Chen: “I want to observe too, but the Captain is wearing a big coat and a mask, there's no way to observe.”

Kaeya: “Hahaha!”

Marvika: “Hahaha.”

The bullet screen was filled with laughter.

The Captain was just seriously setting the time, even with no hope, but his personality would never give up the chance.

Unfortunately, this round was set by him, he couldn't answer himself.

「The final round intermission game begins」

The time is from 30 to 100 seconds.

The Captain gave it to Kaeya.

Kaeya took it at 5 seconds, deliberately giving it to Mu Chen, but not giving it.

Mu Chen: “Captain Kaeya, it's not even 30 seconds yet, you should at least wait for 30 seconds for your fake move.”

Kaeya placed the bomb with Mu Chen: “I don't think it's going to explode in 30 seconds.”

Mu Chen took it, held it steady for a while: “Come on, General, you disarm it.”

It's only 17 seconds now.

Shadow did have the intention of disarming it, but she immediately gave it to the next person.

Dori was stunned, she thought the General would wait to disarm it.

Only now did Mu Chen notice that Shadow was already thinking hard.

At the beginning, she answered questions in a detached manner, isolating herself in a state of tranquility.

Mu Chen was also thinking, with Yae Miko's intelligence, she probably told the General something.

And, because of the fried rice, she opened her mouth in the live stream.

Once there's a first time, there will be a follow-up.

It's obvious that Shadow has started thinking about how to win, or rather, how to minimize Inazuma's losses.

Even if she's sitting cross-legged in the classroom, she can see the public live stream bullet screen.

Last episode, this episode, Inazuma people's complaining bullet screen.

And Sangonomiya Kokomi.

Don't underestimate some of her “strategies,” deliberately letting the Watatsumi Army post some comments.

Mu Chen believes Kamisato Ayaka and Ayato definitely have arrangements for this too.

It's just for the General to see.

From her thinking expression now.

Shadow suddenly looked at Mu Chen, which startled Mu Chen, he was also stealing glances at the General.

Shadow snorted coldly, classifying Mu Chen as a high-risk individual.

She does have a chance to catch up by disarming the bomb now, but the success rate is low, and if it explodes, it will directly deduct points.

The live stream didn't say what the punishment is, it should be related to the nation.

So Shadow decided to play it safe, not until the last moment, she would pass it on.

Dori didn't think as comprehensively as Shadow.

It returned to the Captain's hands, exactly 30 seconds.

The Captain deliberately gave it to Kaeya for ten seconds.

Kaeya got it at 45 seconds: “Mu Chen, it's time to disarm it.”

He wanted to take it, but he didn't.

Mu Chen smiled: “Give it to me, it's not that short of time.”

Mu Chen got it at 43 seconds and gave it directly to Shadow.

Shadow originally had the intention of disarming it, but after hearing Mu Chen say this, based on the impressions of the two episodes, Shadow believed Mu Chen's words.

She chose not to disarm it, and when it reached 49 seconds, she gave it to Dori.

Even Kaeya and the Pyro Archon could sense that Mu Chen was giving a message to Shadow.

The General and the Captain are not suitable for playing this kind of game, Mu Chen deliberately passed on the message, guiding Shadow.

Yae Miko, Kamisato Ayato, Sangonomiya Kokomi, all of them saw it.

Otherwise, Shadow would have been impulsive just now.
