Peaceful days always pass quickly, especially for travelers.
After listening to Miss Catherine's signature greeting "Toward the Stars and the Abyss" for several days, the traveler who received daily commissions while eating breakfast finally came up with a rare conversation from the Adventurers Association.
"Please stay, traveler."
"I have a rather special commission here. I wonder if you are interested?"
Miss Catherine still had that signature smile on her face, like a machine without a soul. However, when she heard that there was a special commission she could take on, she still swallowed the breakfast she bought at Wanmintang in a few mouthfuls and didn't eat it yet.
A full Paimon came to Catherine.
"Of course, no matter what the entrustment is, nothing will trouble me!"
The traveler responded energetically, and Paimon, who was still chewing food in his mouth, also hummed and nodded.
As we all know, special commissions represent many, many molas.
"Due to the principle of confidentiality, I cannot disclose the name of the publisher, but this commission requires adventurers to find a winter man named "Ajax" in Liyue."
"According to the publisher, this Mr. Ajax is young, has orange hair and blue eyes, is a "toy salesman" by profession, and has extremely outstanding business abilities. Due to work reasons, he was transferred to Liyue from the winter solstice."
After Miss Catherine introduced the specific situation in a few words, she folded her hands in front of her belly and waited for her sister's response.
"Wait a minute, what's the name of that Solstice man? Ajax?"
The traveler asked again with some confusion. Paimon, who was holding the adventurer's manual to record information, also came to his senses and looked sideways at the traveler.
"Hey, Ajax, isn't that the young master's..."
Just when Paimon was about to say Dadalia's name, Yingmei quickly covered her mouth of the emergency food.
Nowadays, the Fools are notorious in Liyue. Even if they openly talk about the Fools on the street, they will attract the attention of the residents on the roadside. If they are heard by the patrolling Qianyan Army soldiers, they will inevitably start talking about it again.
An interrogation.
"Although I don't know what the relationship between the Foolish CEO and Mr. Ajax is, I think the two of you already have clues."
Catherine was not affected by the rumors at all and still dutifully told the travelers about the commission.
"So, do you two want to accept this commission?"
"Of course...I'll give it a try."
If the travelers were full of energy just now, their current response seems a bit lacking in confidence.
Putting aside whether the Ajax mentioned by the client is Dadalia, the position of toy salesman sounds very suspicious.
But with orange hair and blue eyes and a young age, he was looking for the person that Traveler and Paimon thought of immediately.
Could it be that, like the lady's identity as "Mondstadt's diplomatic envoy", "toy salesperson" is also the superficial identity of Dadalia in Liyue?
But even if he knew that the person he was looking for was Dadalia, the traveler didn't have much clue. Since he and Dadalia were separated last time at Zhutian Fang, Yingmei had not seen each other again. She didn't know whether she was holding Zhongli's hand.
The God's Heart returned to winter and resumed its life, but went to perform tasks elsewhere.
The traveler was guessing where Dadalia was going, but Catherine's response gave her a new clue: "Thank you very much for your help, adventurer."
"If you discover the whereabouts of Mr. Ajax, you can submit a commission directly to the association; if you find Ajax himself, you can inform him to wait on the Yermak at the berth of the South Pier."
Hearing the somewhat familiar name of the ship, the traveler subconsciously froze for a moment.
In order to find the whereabouts of Captain Beidou, Yingmei has been running to the dock frequently these days. Except for the Death Omen of the Southern Cross Fleet, she has seen all the other ships. After all, only Liyue has
The Xiabei Pier is available. If you want to do business in Liyue, you can only dock at the North Pier.
As for the port privately built by the Liyue Family in Guyun Pavilion... let's not mention it.
After the Yin Yuan Hall Incident, Tianquan Ningguang raised all important military and political matters in Liyue Port. The aristocratic families in Liyue were all faced with the problem of how to survive the liquidation. How could they have the leisure and elegance to challenge the authority of the Seven Stars again?
Thanks to Ningguang's personal recognition as a hero, the travelers wandering around the dock even became familiar with the port's ship registrar "Lin Ling", and occasionally looked through the ship registration records of the entire port.
The traveler tried hard to recall the details of the paperwork in his mind, and then he remembered that the Yermak's port entry registration seemed to indicate the country of origin as Solstice Country, and the reason for entry application was "Northland Bank personnel transfer."
This is the ship Pantalone sailed on!
The traveler who reacted subconsciously wanted to refuse the commission she had just accepted. She knew that Dadalia and Pantalone had a bad relationship, especially when she confronted Ms. Zhongli at the Northland Bank. Dadalia
Taking away the final fruits of victory of the entire plan.
Zhongli's Heart of God.
The cruel words that the lady gnashed her teeth after her beard was cut off were still in her ears. Not long after, Pantalone came to Liyue by boat in person, obviously wanting to liquidate the mistakes Dadalia had made and the share of the debt that had been committed.
Wrongly signed indemnity deed.
However, the young master is obviously not stupid. He hid early, hiding somewhere where Pantalone and the lady could not find him.
From the perspective of travelers, it was a coincidence that the Adventurers Association issued a commission to find Dadalia, and Miss Catherine coincidentally issued the commission to the few who might know Dadalia's whereabouts...a series
The accident immediately made Cai Ying more vigilant.
Could this be a commission that Beiguo Bank deliberately released to test her?
Thinking that Pantalone was also the mastermind behind Yinyuan Hall's god-making plan, the traveler had the illusion that a beast was watching in secret.
"Traveller, have you thought of anything? How about going to the port to investigate that weird ship first?"
Little Paimon was still urging the traveler to act as quickly as possible, completely unaware that she and the traveler might have fallen into the trap woven by Pantalone.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "No, I will, uh, let's complete this commission first..."
The traveler took the Adventurer's Manual from Paimon's hand and quickly flipped through it, pointing to the daily commission at the top of the manual and nodding with certainty.
"Well, let's take a look... An extremely dangerous ruin guard has appeared at the foot of Tianheng Mountain. The Qianyan Army has entrusted powerful adventurers to help deal with it."
Although he didn’t know why the traveler ignored the good special quests and chose the thankless daily quests instead, Paimon still gave full play to his role as a guide and looked at the small map attached to the adventurer’s manual.
The traveler rushed towards the place where the incident occurred.
At the same time, inside the Northland Bank.
"Master, according to your plan, the traveler has already set off towards Tianheng Mountain."
The gray-haired Russell was respectfully facing behind the desk, wearing a cloak. Pantalone, who was reading paper documents, reported the travelers' movements. The rich man did not raise his head after hearing this, but just slightly adjusted the lenses on the bridge of his nose.
Then he turned the page of the document in his hand.
"What about your Excellencies?"
"Based on the time, we should have arrived at the scheduled location."
Russell came to Pantalone's side and refilled his already bottomed cup with tea.
“Well done.”
Pantalone finally put down the paper in her hand and raised her head with satisfaction.
"But sir, I don't understand. If you put them together, won't things become more troublesome?"
Russell hesitated several times, seeming to think of the child named Tok, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"Things are indeed a bit tricky...but besides us, doesn't the Tianquan star who first took charge of Liyue find it troublesome?" Pantalone folded his hands, looked sideways at Russell, and said in a gentle tone, "Speaking of which, Yi
Isn’t there any news from Lina yet?”
"There is no news yet, and there is no response from the hidden line buried in Liyue. Everything in the safe house is business as usual."
When it came to Irina, who suddenly disappeared after the Irina Gold House incident, Russell's tone also contained a bit of confusion.
Although Irina is arrogant, she knows how to measure herself. If there are no special circumstances, she will obviously not leave without saying goodbye. Moreover, as a soldier of honor, she is also a respected role in the team of fools. Her resume from childhood to adulthood is more
She is extremely outstanding. Psychological evaluation reports over the years show that she is absolutely loyal to Zhi Dong and has no possibility of rebellion.
But since Irina unfolded the water mirror on Feiyun Slope and stepped into it, it seemed as if she had evaporated directly. There was no trace anywhere, and she did not actively send any information back. It was really abnormal.
Pantalone sighed slightly.
Irina has a special status and has worked for many executives. Now she has disappeared inexplicably. It is difficult for people to think of anything good.
"Find her, Russell...I want to see her alive, and I want to see her body dead."
