~4 min read 729 words

On the other side!

Lumine and Paimon finally managed to carefully escape the scope of Yujing Terrace, and seeing that they only needed to pass through this passage to avoid the first blockade line.

But who knew that the dead branches hidden in the grass would expose her.

With a "crack," the two were immediately discovered by the surrounding Millelith.

"That blonde woman is here! And that little thing!"

"Come over here, catch her!"

"You two, surrender!"

Watching more than a dozen Millelith soldiers holding spears and lances rush over, Paimon's expression changed in fright.

"Lumine, what should we do? We're going to be caught!"

At a time like this, Lumine obviously couldn't obediently be arrested.

Heaven knows what would happen after being caught. She preferred to keep the initiative in her own hands.

He would clear his name in a way he could accept, rather than leaving it entirely to others to interrogate him; if he were to run into a few parasites and fools similar to Schubert of the Lawrence family in Mondstadt, wouldn't he be walking right into a trap?

"Fight our way out!"

As the owner of a series of titles such as Hilichurl Terminator, Slime Undertaker, Abyss Mage Nemesis, Dragon Knight... Lumine immediately began to beat up the Millelith.

Of course, she didn't dare to use force, otherwise, she would cause deaths or injuries.

She was innocent, but she would be blacklisted.

Lumine rushed up and threw a flurry of punches and kicks, directly tearing a hole in the Millelith's encirclement.

However, because she couldn't strike hard, she couldn't break out completely for a while, causing the Millelith in the distance to run over as well.

If they were surrounded, it would really be over, and they could only leave it to fate.

But fortunately, at this time, a dashing and elegant figure jumped down from a high place, and for some reason, suddenly helped her.

After beating back the Millelith in a few moves, the young man, who looked like a playboy, immediately took Lumine and successfully left.

The two came to a safe place.

Lumine just wanted to thank him, when she saw the hearty playboy pat his chest and introduce himself.

"Hello, I am the last of the Eleven Secret Fatui Harbingers of the Snezhnayan diplomatic mission—Childe, Tartaglia."

Under the gaze of their wide eyes, the playboy had no self-awareness that both sides were in a hostile position, and greeted the two with a smile.

The two were stunned for a moment.

Paimon shouted first: "You're a Secret Fatui! Why did you save us?!"

She blocked in front of Lumine first, feeling angry and confused.

After all, the Secret Fatui had done so many evil things in Mondstadt.

Childe Tartaglia laughed: "Well, I know you are hostile to me, but I am different from those other Secret Fatui."

Discovering that neither of them trusted him, Tartaglia shook his head with a bitter smile.

"How about this: I saw the incident at Yujing Terrace from beginning to end, and I know you have nothing to do with this incident, but now you must clear your own suspicion."

"At a time like this, you must seek external confirmation. I heard that Liyue was established by the Geo Archon and the Adepti. If you can get the Adepti to prove that you have nothing to do with this incident, it should be fine."

Lumine was a bit suspicious about what purpose the other party had in suddenly helping her for no reason.

However, reality was just as he said; first, she had to clear her suspicion, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to move an inch in Liyue City.

"What can you do?"

Tartaglia smiled slightly, took out a mysterious talisman, and said: "This is a Sigil of Permission. With it, you can see the Adepti. It is rumored that the Adepti are hidden in Jueyun Karst and cannot be approached by ordinary people."

"I think with your ability, you should have a chance to glimpse the Adepti's fate. When you explain everything that happened in Liyue to the Adepti in person, it will naturally be clear."

Tartaglia's words were sincere, and Lumine couldn't hear any traps aimed at her, and he was even thinking for her everywhere.

But to say that the other party was just so helpful, she didn't believe it at all.
