He could only pin his hopes on the video being able to provide an answer.

According to the plan, he didn't need to do this kind of operation!

At the same time, within the Abyss Order.

Aether breathed a sigh of relief, patting his chest and saying: "Phew, I said so, how could there be such a tall Abyss Mage in the Order? No matter how you look at it, it should be an Abyss Herald... This Tartaglia, what a great method, actually dragging the Order into the water..."

Heh!

Aether sneered repeatedly.

Everyone knows the Abyss Order isn't a good thing, but are the Fatui good people?

Everyone isn't a good person, but for you to drag me in as a shield is a bit immoral, right?

"Shameless!"

Aether made his evaluation.

A crowd of Abyss Heralds and Abyss Mages echoed in agreement.

In the video.

Liyue suburbs.

A silver-white spear appeared in Gu Chen's hand, and he asked with an unkind expression: "Sir, what is your purpose in framing us like this?"

"Haha, of course, it's to pull you into the game!"

Tartaglia smiled. Under the sunlight, the smile on that youthful face made him look like he wasn't a heinous person.

However, his actions didn't match this face at all!

"We don't want to wade into these muddy waters." Gu Chen's face darkened slightly.

"That's not up to you."

Tartaglia shook his head and said with a slight smile: "Gu Chen, I know you. I've heard about your affairs in Mondstadt, so I've been paying more attention to you, the Honorary Knight. My plans always need someone to act as a chess piece, and it just so happens you came to the Rite of Descension scene today, so I chose you... I heard your strength is very strong, and you fought the Dragon of the East to a standstill. I wonder to what level your strength has reached?"

While speaking, a clearly excited look appeared on Tartaglia's face. He seemed very eager to have a fight with Gu Chen.

"Is this person's brain not quite right?"

Paimon asked in a low voice.

"Perhaps it was caught in a door." Lumine answered after a second of contemplation.

【Lumine】: I agree with my past self. This guy Tartaglia doesn't look like a normal person!

【Paimon】: How could a normal person do such a thing! (Baron Bunny·Go away)

【Tartaglia】: I'm very sorry, I can probably understand my past self, but don't worry, I definitely won't do this in the real world.

【Kaeya】: After all, it's already exposed, no one will be fooled if you do it again! (Funny)

【Tartaglia】: Hahaha.

【Ningguang】: @【Tartaglia】 Mr. Tartaglia, I hope your side can cause less trouble in Liyue. This is a turbulent time, if your side does anything out of line... consequences will be on you!

【Tartaglia】: Don't worry, don't worry. To show sincerity, and to prove the Fatui's innocence, I can responsibly tell everyone that the Fatui have no plan to assassinate the Geo Archon. Everyone knows the Geo Archon's strength is superb, how could the Fatui be so overestimating themselves to do such a thing?

【Keqing】: You'd better be!

【Tartaglia】: Believe it or not, it's up to you. But my past self is about to fight Mr. Gu Chen, I'm really looking forward to it! (Xiangling·Starry eyes)

Bang!

In the video, Gu Chen and Tartaglia collided directly without warning.

Derived from a warrior's intuition, both sides had sensed the birth of this moment upon their first meeting.

Gu Chen's spear tapped lightly, the tip like raindrops, continuous and endless. For a moment, countless spear shadows appeared in front of Tartaglia.

Tartaglia is indeed the youngest Harbinger of the Fatui; his combat intuition is very sharp, and he dodged attack after attack dangerously.

"Gu Chen, go for it!"

Paimon flew to the side, acting as a cheerleader, cheering loudly.

"Don't affect him." Lumine patted Paimon with some worry.

"Oh, oh!"

Paimon realized belatedly, floating next to Lumine and watching nervously.

More than a dozen moves had passed between the interlacing figures.

After a backstep, Tartaglia's short blades condensed from Hydro energy were shattered. His forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and he said with a solemn expression: "Mr. Gu Chen, you shouldn't have used your full strength, right?"

【Tartaglia】: What?! This wasn't full strength? (Tartaglia·Eating whale)

"I'm contemplating whether to kill you to report to the Qixing, or to consider it after deeply understanding your plan?" Gu Chen answered with a calm expression.

"Hahahaha!"

Tartaglia laughed out loud upon hearing this, his expression turning fierce as he said: "Mr. Gu Chen, do you really think you can kill me?!"

The next moment, an ominous power erupted.

Powerful Electro energy burst forth, crackling in the air, which was alarming.

Battle armor began to appear on Tartaglia, who was surrounded by Electro energy, while Gu Chen's expression remained calm, watching indifferently.

【Venti】: Is this a transformation?

【Neuvillette】: Why not interrupt him?

【Tartaglia】: Mr. Gu Chen, aren't you being too arrogant?!

【Gu Chen】: That year, I had my hands in my pockets, not knowing what an opponent was!

【Ararycan】: Such an arrogant Nara!

"Then let's end it here!"

The aura on Tartaglia, who had activated his Foul Legacy, became even more ferocious.

His speed became very fast, difficult for the naked eye to capture, but between every move and style, Gu Chen still responded calmly.

After dodging Tartaglia's attack, Gu Chen twisted his body and sent out the spear in his hand.

Pfft!

The spear pierced into Tartaglia's lower back without any obstruction. Then Gu Chen leaned in, pulled the spear back with his left hand, causing Tartaglia to fall toward him, and his right hand clenched into a fist and slammed out.

Bang!

A punch landed solidly on the Foul Legacy armor, causing it to crack and fragments to scatter all over the ground.

And Tartaglia himself was pale as paper, hanging on the spear with a painful expression.

Gu Chen reached out his right hand to grab Tartaglia's head.

【Tartaglia】: Brother! Stop hitting! If you hit again, I'll die! (Thoma kneeling·Please)

【La Signora】: Good death!

【Tartaglia】: We're colleagues, why are you saying such cold words! (Tartaglia·Damn it)

Gu Chen, who had reached out his hand, turned his wrist and grabbed Tartaglia by the collar of his neck, saying: "I'm not familiar with this place, killing you might cause quite a bit of trouble... Now, can you tell me your purpose?"
