Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

Chapter 328: Rumors of Sea Monsters

The afternoon sun gradually set, and the tranquility in the courtyard was broken by the sound of the gate opening.

It was Kurumi who walked in, a vibrant smile on her face.

"Husband, I'm back!" Walnut said loudly.

Su Xun looked up at Hu Tao and smiled slightly: "Girl, you came back quite early today."

Hu Tao jumped to Su Xun's side and leaned on him coquettishly: "Hey, husband, guess what interesting thing I encountered today?"

Su Xun gently scratched Hu Tao's nose and said with a smile, "I can't guess. Tell me quickly."

Walnut blinked and said mysteriously, "I passed by the port today and heard some rumors about a mysterious sea monster."

"Sea monster?" Su Xun raised his eyebrows.

Walnut nodded, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "Yes, I heard some fishermen talking about it, saying that someone saw a huge sea monster near the Yunlai Sea, and it happened more than once.

The sea monsters they described had different shapes, some looked like giant snakes, some looked like giant octopuses, and some even said they saw creatures similar to the legendary dragons!"

“Then I asked around and found out that the source of this rumor was a mysterious encounter between Beidou’s Southern Cross Fleet and the Qianyan Army in the Yunlai Sea half a month ago.

It is said that they encountered a powerful and mysterious monster at that time, and the battle was extremely fierce. I guess the sea monster these fishermen are talking about might be the same one!" Walnut described it vividly.

"Oh? Sister Beidou's Southern Cross Fleet is a civilian armed fleet. How could it act together with the Qianyan Army?" Su Xun asked puzzledly.

Hu Tao blinked and explained, "It is said that there were unusual fluctuations in the Yunlai Sea outside Liyue Harbor, and our Tianquan Star Master Ningguang was worried about danger, so he arranged for them to go investigate together."

"So that's how it is." Su Xun nodded thoughtfully.

At this time, Shen He said: "This sea monster is so powerful, will it threaten Liyue again?"

Hu Tao patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, we have Sister Beidou and the Qianyan Army here, as well as so many strong men from Liyue. If the sea monster dares to attack us, we will make sure it has no chance of returning!"

Su Xun smiled slightly, Hu Tao was quite optimistic.

But she was right. Liyue Harbor not only had the Thousand Rocks Army, a group of strong, brave and invincible iron-blooded troops, but also many talented people. Even if the sea monster attacked again, they would be able to repel it.

As they chatted, the sky gradually darkened and the people in the courtyard enjoyed a warm dinner together.

The next day, in the early morning of Liyue, the air was filled with a fresh scent. Many vendors were already busy on the streets, and the city was gradually waking up.

In Wanmin Hall, Xiangling was busy preparing delicious food for the new day.

The stove fire is blazing and the aroma is everywhere.

Xiangling was humming a cheerful tune while she was busy.

Today she plans to try some new recipes and bring some surprises to the guests.

Her movements were skillful and quick, and soon, an enticing aroma wafted from the kitchen.

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the door, and then a familiar figure walked in.

It was Ganyu. She looked a little worried today.

"Oh, it's Senior Sister Ganyu, good morning!" Xiangling greeted with a smile, "What would you like to eat today?"

Although he was not very familiar with this nominal senior sister, Senior Brother Su Xun often mentioned her.

Xiangling knows that Ganyu has contributed a lot to Liyue, and she is full of admiration for her.

Ganyu forced a smile and said, "Xiangling, just anything is fine. I'm just a little hungry."

Xiangling noticed that Ganyu was in a bad mood and asked with concern: "Senior Sister Ganyu, you don't look very happy. Did something happen?"

Gan Yu shook her head slightly, "Nothing, it's just that the recent affairs have been a bit heavy, and I am a little tired."

Xiangling is a thoughtful girl. She can feel that Ganyu seems to be hiding something, but she did not ask any questions. She just decided to use delicious food to cheer Ganyu up.

"Then please sit down first, senior sister. I will go prepare some delicious food for you." Xiangling said, and began to get busy.

Soon, a table full of delicious breakfast was placed in front of Ganyu.

Well, these dishes are of course all vegetarian, and Xiangling is quite familiar with Ganyu’s taste habits.

"This..." Ganyu's beautiful eyes widened slightly, "This is too much!"

Ganyu raised her head and looked at Xiangling, and said with some embarrassment: "Xiangling, I just want to eat something casually. I'm afraid I can't finish these."

Xiangling smiled and waved her hands, "It's okay, Senior Sister Ganyu, these are the new dishes I tried today, you can try them and see if they suit your taste. If you can't finish them, you can take them away and enjoy them slowly."

Hearing this, Ganyu was still a little hesitant. Even if she packed up so many dishes and took them home and put them in the freezer, they couldn't be kept for too long. She could only eat them in the next few days, otherwise the taste would deteriorate a lot. But she was also worried that she would get fat if she ate so much...

Just when Ganyu was hesitant, Xiangling seemed to see through her thoughts and quickly said, "Senior Sister Ganyu, don't worry. You work so hard every day, so it's only right that you eat more to replenish your nutrition. And I promise that these dishes are low in calories and won't make you fat."

Ganyu felt warm in her heart after hearing Xiangling's words. She nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, Xiangling."

After saying that, Ganyu picked up the chopsticks and began to taste the food in front of her.

With every bite, the wonderful taste made her forget her troubles temporarily.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the Wanmin Hall.

"Oh no, oh no! There's a monster at the port!" a voice shouted in horror.

Upon hearing this, Ganyu's expression froze. She put down her chopsticks, stood up and ran towards the port.

Xiangling didn't care about the business in the store and followed closely behind.

When we arrived at the port, we saw rough waves on the sea and a huge figure looming.

Ganyu looked intently and saw huge waves rolling on the sea. The figure seemed to be the sea snake Bazhe that she had encountered before. It appeared again outside Liyue Harbor. This time its appearance was more sudden and more dangerous than the last time.

Ganyu immediately ordered the Qianyan Army around her: "Quick, inform Lady Ningguang and the other seven stars of Liyue that the sea serpent Bache, the wife of the whirlpool demon god Osel, has appeared again. Tell all the people to stay away from the port to avoid being affected."

The Qianyan Army received the order and quickly split up to take action. Some were responsible for notifying the Seven Stars of Liyue, while others were responsible for directing the evacuation of the people in the port.

Ganyu took a deep breath and prepared to face this powerful opponent again.
