Chapter 259
Thinking of this possibility, Tartaglia's heart couldn't help but sink.
All Fatui Harbingers were considered kin of the Tsaritsa.
According to La Signora's statement, perhaps the Tsaritsa was really in a state of weakness; Tartaglia wouldn't look down on the Tsaritsa because of this; after all, the Tsaritsa was the one who gave them power.
But if someone really took action against the Tsaritsa because of this, Tartaglia would absolutely never forgive them.
Tartaglia's character was that of a martial artist and a soldier, and he also had absolute loyalty to the Tsaritsa.
Among the Fatui, besides La Signora, Tartaglia was the most loyal to the Tsaritsa.
"Is this news reliable?" Tartaglia took a deep breath, forcibly calmed his emotions, and looked at La Signora with a cold tone.
"Ninety percent possibility; you also know that before I came to Does Does Liyue, I went to see the Tsaritsa once!" Rosalyne didn't hide much from Tartaglia: "At that time, the Anemo Archon Barbatos said some strange things to me; I passed those words to the Tsaritsa, and the Tsaritsa arranged for me to come to Does Does Liyue.
But she didn't tell me the specific mission; now that I think about it, it should be that the Tsaritsa wanted to protect me."
"Protect you..." Tartaglia frowned upon hearing this; it seemed that during this time, he hadn't received any orders from the Tsaritsa either.
Even the previous mission to seize the Gnosis didn't urge him to complete it, just let him come to Does Does Liyue to continue cooperating with Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli.
Now following Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli, he, Tartaglia, was also eating and drinking well; although it was usually Childe Tartaglia who paid, the one who really paid was Pantalone.
And he, Tartaglia, was considered to be eating and drinking on public funds; if there were no orders from the Tsaritsa, how could his little life be so good?
The funds of ordinary Fatui were also limited; even a Harbinger like La Signora couldn't be as extravagant as himself.
Regarding the situation in Does Does Liyue, Tartaglia didn't want to return to Snezhnaya many times; there was no way, the little life in Does Does Liyue was really too good.
As for La Signora, it seemed there was no mission, and it seemed she was usually staying in the Northland Bank.
It seemed she was even more idle than himself.
At first, Tartaglia couldn't understand, but now it seemed that the Tsaritsa must have her deep meaning.
Perhaps it was really to protect Rosalyne!
Regarding Rosalyne's loyalty to the Tsaritsa, Tartaglia wouldn't doubt it either; this woman was a crazy woman; usually, besides fighting the Abyss Order, it seemed that only the Tsaritsa's affairs could make Rosalyne care.
This was also the main reason why Rosalyne had always had no good attitude towards him, but Tartaglia didn't have any murderous intent towards Rosalyne.
However, the Tsaritsa arranged for him and Rosalyne to come to Does Does Liyue, was it actually to protect them?
He didn't think he could protect Rosalyne; both he and Rosalyne might be within the scope of protection.
Then the Fatui really had a problem.
But who was the one protecting them?
Soon, Tartaglia thought of Regarding Regarding Zhongli; indeed, Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli was an Adeptus; although he hadn't fought Regarding Regarding Zhongli, Tartaglia could see that he was not Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli's opponent either.
If he didn't know that Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli couldn't be the Geo Archon, Tartaglia would sometimes suspect whether the other party was the incarnation of the Geo Archon.
However, he was a person from Snezhnaya; if he were the Geo Archon, how could he be so close to himself?
Moreover, if Regarding Regarding Zhongli were the Geo Archon, the Tsaritsa couldn't have arranged for him to come to Regarding Regarding Zhongli's side; if the other party were the Geo Archon, he couldn't have asked him to pay every time!
As the oldest of the Seven Archons and the creator of Mora, how could such an existence lack Mora?
Therefore, Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli couldn't be the Geo Archon!
He could only be an Adeptus who was dissatisfied with the Geo Archon!
How could the Geo Archon take the lead in betraying his own country?
Unexpectedly, he was protected by Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli; it seems that he still needs to buy some gifts for Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli later.
Anyway, he didn't need to earn Mora himself...
After sighing about these, Tartaglia said to La Signora: "What should we do now? Go directly back to Snezhnaya and save the Tsaritsa?"
At this time, Tartaglia almost believed La Signora's words; after all, La Signora's loyalty to the Tsaritsa was beyond doubt, and he was indeed not very fond of the Jester and the others; if the Jester and the others took advantage of the absence of those of them who were loyal to the Tsaritsa to ambush the Tsaritsa, it was not impossible.
"Combined, we are not the Jester's opponents." La Signora looked at Tartaglia helplessly; she was actually very happy that Tartaglia was willing to believe her.
This guy's brain was not easy to use, but his strength was still very good.
But Tartaglia, this guy, having a brain that was not easy to use was a huge flaw; running back to Snezhnaya now, isn't that courting death?
Once they also had an accident, then who would save the Tsaritsa?
"This..." Even Tartaglia admitted that La Signora's words made sense at this time, and Snezhnaya was also a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.
It was too difficult to defeat the Jester and the others.
Moreover, at this time, Tartaglia didn't know whose words to believe and whose words not to believe.
After thinking about it, Tartaglia said to La Signora: "Why don't we go and ask the omnipotent Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli?
If it were him, he should have a way to help us."
"Are you sure you want to go and ask Regarding Regarding Zhongli?" La Signora looked at Tartaglia with a subtle expression.
Tartaglia might not be able to guess the identities of Regarding Regarding Zhongli and Zhong Kui, but La Signora had quite a few guesses.
The matter of the Gnosis might have been a play from beginning to end, with them in Snezhnaya taking the lead and the other Seven Archons cooperating with the Tsaritsa.
It was just that an accident happened now, and the four Gnosis of Anemo, Electro, Geo, and Dendro fell into Mu Yang's hands.
This was something none of them had thought of before.
Obviously, Mu Yang's relationship with the Geo Archon was definitely not bad, and even the Geo Archon was by Mu Yang's side; thinking about Mu Yang and Regarding Regarding Zhongli's relationship, plus the Tsaritsa arranging for Tartaglia to find Regarding Regarding Zhongli, then Regarding Regarding Zhongli's identity was self-evident.
Just thinking about Regarding Regarding Zhongli's usual behavior, La Signora's expression was also a bit subtle.
That guy Barbatos disguised himself as a drunkard, while Morax became a street wanderer who didn't carry money.
At this time, La Signora really wanted to complain about these Seven Archons; why are you like this!
Fortunately, their Tsaritsa had great love and wouldn't be like Morax and Barbatos.
"Well, why? Is there a problem?" Tartaglia looked at La Signora suspiciously: "Mr. Regarding Regarding Zhongli is the person the Tsaritsa asked me to find."
"Well, then you go and find him!" Rosalyne's mouth twitched a few times; she decided not to tell Tartaglia Regarding Regarding Zhongli's identity.
This was actually quite good.
Not knowing Regarding Regarding Zhongli's identity, Tartaglia and Regarding Regarding Zhongli could instead make Regarding Regarding Zhongli and Tartaglia get along a bit more harmoniously.
Perhaps Regarding Regarding Zhongli himself didn't want others to know his identity as the Geo Archon; pointing out the other party's identity rashly might make the Geo Archon dissatisfied instead.
"By the way, Mu Yang asked you to help build momentum for Lumine to become the Does Does Liyue the Does Does Liyue Does Does Liyue Qixing!?" After thinking about it, Rosalyne asked Tartaglia, who was preparing to leave.
"Well, what's wrong? Didn't you disagree with this matter?" Tartaglia looked at Rosalyne with some dissatisfaction.
He had promised it with a vow back then, but now because of Rosalyne, he couldn't make good use of the Fatui in Does Does Liyue.
"I agree with your behavior! There is no need to inform the headquarters for the time being; with the power of the two of us, we have the qualification to decide the situation in Does Does Liyue.
After all, we are the only two Harbingers on the surface in Does Does Liyue." La Signora said pointedly.
As for whether other Fatui Harbingers agreed with this plan, it was no longer that important.
Tartaglia himself was arranged to come to Does Does Liyue by the Fatui, and it was also instructed by the Tsaritsa, and she, La Signora, came here, which was also the Tsaritsa's meaning.
Then the Fatui in Does Does Liyue had to listen to the two of them.
Although there might be people from other Harbingers here, if the two had requests, they had to obey.
"Good!" Tartaglia looked at La Signora deeply; this woman was not one to do anything without profit.
Obviously, she wanted to win over Mu Yang through Lumine's relationship, but Tartaglia didn't reject this matter.
He was even happy to see it happen; he really didn't want to be an enemy and opponent of Mu Yang; he would probably die miserably then.
And, isn't it good to have a good relationship with Mu Yang?
Anyway, they were also in an antagonistic relationship with the Heavenly Principles; the Tsaritsa's goal was to overthrow the Heavenly Principles; if they pulled Mu Yang into the group, it seemed quite good!!
Mu Yang: Overthrowing the Heavenly Principles or whatever, I actually don't refuse; it just depends on what aspect the Tsaritsa wants to overthrow me in...
Now that La Signora was willing to support him, Tartaglia felt that this was very profitable; wouldn't it have been good to be like this earlier?
Stupid woman!
Thinking of the look of contempt Tartaglia gave her before leaving, La Signora's chest also heaved; obviously, she was also very unhappy now.
Was she despised by a mentally disabled person?
