At the same time, they also noticed the few people approaching and greeted them one after another.
"Traveler, Paimon, Xiangling, and two... Inazumans?" Keqing saw Shiki and Ayaka, and his expression couldn't help but look a bit strange.
"Long time no see, everyone, and nice to meet you two for the first time. I presume you must be the friends the Traveler made in Inazuma, right? May I ask how to address you?"
Ningguang noticed something. The Liyue Qixing are well-informed, and he had not received any intelligence regarding the lifting of Inazuma's Sakoku Decree.
So, for these two Inazumans to be able to come to Liyue, they must have been brought over by someone.
The Traveler, who possesses teleportation abilities, is the most likely person, and besides, it's obvious that these people know each other.
"Long time no see, Traveler. Hello to the other two friends, I am Beidou, captain of the Alcor!"
Beidou didn't think that much. Once he heard Ningguang say that these two Young Misss were the Traveler's friends, he immediately introduced himself in a very hearty manner.
"Long have I heard of your name, Captain Beidou."
Shiki nodded slightly, his eyes carrying a hint of appreciation. If it weren't for maintaining the Young Miss persona, he and the other party were actually quite similar.
"Oh? You know me?"
"Naturally, Lumine once mentioned you to me, and I presume you should be very familiar with this name."
"Who?"
"Kazuha."
"So it's him. Little brother Kazuha is one of the few people I know in Inazuma. Isn't he that fixer in Ritou? Would a Young Miss like you know such a person?"
Beidou remembered that white-haired youth; his ability to forecast weather made him a good candidate for a sailor.
"Captain Beidou is joking. Kazuha is my friend; this has nothing to do with status. Besides, his going to Ritou to develop his forces was also a result of our discussions."
"That's not bad at all!"
Beidou heard this and showed a satisfied expression. It seemed that this Young Miss from Inazuma was not the type of person with a bunch of issues. What he hated most were these walking troubles.
Demanding this and that every single day, with endless issues.
Being able to become friends with people from the streets is enough to explain many things.
"Oh right, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Shiki, and I am a swordswoman."
"My family just has a bit of influence in Inazuma; there is no need to mention it here," Shiki said.
Beidou became interested immediately upon hearing this. What do you call this? This is called meeting an equal. He also uses a sword, albeit a greatsword.
But it doesn't matter; they are all swords anyway.
"Oh? Then we can have a sparring match when we have the chance. Looking at your attire, I thought you were a mage like Ningguang."
"Strictly speaking, you can treat me as a mage; I am also very good at elemental attacks."
The Traveler couldn't help but show a strange expression on his face upon hearing this. Elemental attacks... calling the wind and rain on a sunny day and then raining down divine lightning, right?
"Oh? Then I'm looking forward to sparring with you."
"If there is a chance."
As the words fell, Shiki turned to look at Ningguang and Keqing. These two were the main figures; whether or not they could reach an agreement depended on this moment.
"I am Keqing, the Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing. Since you are friends with the Traveler, you are also friends of Liyue."
"Liyue is celebrating the Moonchase Festival, and I believe you two will have an unforgettable journey," Keqing said.
As the "Raiden Shogun" of Liyue, Master Keqing relied on those black-stockinged long legs to make many players his true fans in the early stages of the game.
However, looking good is one thing, but DMG is a hard flaw. Compared to the five-star DPS characters that appeared later, Master Keqing's DMG is really not high.
It's not that he can't be played, it's just that the DMG is too low compared to other characters.
Moreover, he is a permanent character, which leads to many players inevitably getting high blood pressure when they see Keqing in the small pity.
Hmm, Shiki is also one of them.
However, he still clearly distinguishes between the game and reality, and did not show that kind of negative emotion.
"Since Lady Yuheng says so, I am even more looking forward to the Moonchase Festival."
"I am the Tianquan of the Qixing, Ningguang. Friend from Inazuma, I represent Liyue in welcoming your arrival," Ningguang said unhurriedly.
He always has such a look of being in complete control, that calm state, a mindset that remains unmoved even if Mount Tai collapses before him.
Whether it was facing Osial or giving up the Jade Chamber, Ningguang's emotions did not fluctuate too much.
Ningguang is one of the few among women where rationality takes the upper hand; perhaps this is why he could grow from a street vendor into the all-powerful Tianquan.
"In a single thought, mountains and rivers are swallowed. Everyone knows, the Tianquan is supreme!"
Actually, there is another half to this poem, but Shiki didn't remember it; only the second half left some impression.
"It's all people's flattery; the status among the Qixing is equal."
At this moment, Paimon and the Traveler were already stunned and at a loss for what to do. You have to know, this was their first time meeting!
Being able to talk happily with three people of different personalities at the same time, whether this is put on or not is no longer important.
Because he has this ability, even if it were exposed, no one would believe the so-called "truth."
As for Xiangling, she didn't think that much. This simple-minded girl had already focused all her attention on this large rock.
Seeing that their conversation had temporarily concluded, she eagerly asked, "What is this large rock? It smells a bit salty and damp. Was it just salvaged from the sea?"
"That's right, this thing was fished out of the shallow sea by fishermen. It looks like it's been eroded for a long time, which is why it's so smooth," Beidou said.
"As for what's inside, we have no idea. We've tried all sorts of weapons, but the result is as it is now—not even a hint of a reaction."
"Then Keqing, for some reason, is very interested in this rock, so we decided to let her handle the investigation."
As soon as she finished speaking, Keqing said, "In short, that's the situation with this rock. By the way, are you here to find someone?"
"I'm preparing for this year's Chef King Competition and came to ask for your opinions."
Xiangling repeated her previous statement, but she didn't find it bothersome. It seemed like anything related to chefs wouldn't annoy her.
After all, this lively girl has loved cooking since she was a child. How could she be annoyed?
