Furina didn't know where her confidence came from, always feeling that Venti was the rebel.
She even incited others to gang up on Venti.
After just one round, Venti was already at critical health.
When it was Furina's turn, she naturally went for the kill.
"Zhugeliang's Repeating Crossbow!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Three consecutive 'kill' cards were played, and even with Venti playing as Hua Tuo, he was powerless.
Xavier almost burst out laughing when he saw this.
He forcefully suppressed his laughter, then solemnly announced, "Player Furina, please discard all your hand cards!"
"What, why?!" Furina was still a bit unconvinced, raising her head, wanting to argue with the referee.
Venti angrily flipped over his face-down card, and the words "Loyalist" were clearly written on the yellow card.
"Now you know why, don't you?"
"I, I, I..."
Furina didn't know what to say anymore; she hadn't expected to mistake someone.
She actually killed her own trusted general!
"Venti, I'm sorry, boo hoo hoo..."
Furina kowtowed to Venti repeatedly, as if the Lord had truly lost a loyal subject.
With Furina's disastrous start, it was difficult for the Lord's side to win.
Even with Bennett, the mole, helping her, they still ended in failure.
"Somewhat interesting..."
After playing a round, Cyno rubbed his chin.
He pondered the game's mechanics, seemingly looking for a better way to play.
Although this game was somewhat similar to Seven Saints Summons, both requiring playing cards.
But the gameplay was very different, as it relied heavily on cooperation between players and analysis of the situation.
"No wonder it's called Three Kingdoms Kill; the three factions scheming against each other are very interesting."
Cyno was now less interested in Seven Saints Summons and only wanted to play Three Kingdoms Kill.
"I'm not convinced, I want to play again!"
And Furina, who had been repeatedly defeated, now also got a temper.
Three more rounds were played afterward, but any faction Furina was in ended up losing.
"What, we actually won, our luck is really too good!"
Bennett, who had lost three consecutive games, discovered he won the last game and jumped up happily.
In this game, as a rebel, his teammates were Venti and Ayaka.
Both of them were extremely lucky, especially Venti; as a God, he would naturally have some resistance.
Besides, even the worst luck couldn't overcome a foolish brain.
In a sense, Furina actually defeated Bennett's bad luck.
What a talent!
"I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore, you all just bully me."
Furina snorted and got up to leave.
Playing this kind of game was very brain-intensive, and after a few rounds, everyone felt a bit hungry.
Xavier was about to go make food for everyone but saw Cyno still sitting there, studying.
"Very good, if this game could be promoted in Sumeru, many people would surely participate."
"But how should the cards be made? Those generals might not be easily accepted in Sumeru."
"Hmm, perhaps we can remake the general cards based on Sumeru's history..."
Listening to Cyno mumbling to himself, Xavier ignored him.
As long as he didn't tell him cold jokes, it was already a blessing.
"Xavier, isn't tomorrow the Comic Con?"
Hu Tao mentioned it during dinner.
"That's right, so you all go back early today to prepare and come early tomorrow."
"Time is very precious; we must calculate it precisely."
While eating, Xavier reiterated the important points.
Especially regarding time, everyone only had 8 hours to stay.
This also had to exclude the time to travel to the magic city, which would take two hours.
Even if they didn't return to Teyvat from Jiangcheng, it had to be in a safe place.
Excluding these, the time they could actually stay at the Comic Con was only about 5 hours.
Although it was a pity, there was nothing that could be done.
Xavier told them verbally to be sure to prepare well and rest well.
But when night came, Xavier himself couldn't sleep at all, tossing and turning.
Elementary school spring outing syndrome actually struck at a time like this!
He squirmed around, finally falling asleep with great difficulty.
As a result, it wasn't long before dawn broke, and he heard other people's voices from outside.
"Xavier, you're awake! We prepared breakfast for you today!"
Hu Tao and Furina came over early in the morning and were actually helping Xavier prepare breakfast, which touched Xavier a little.
"You all..."
Xavier almost broke down in tears, but when he saw the burnt eggs, Xavier immediately froze.
Well, he got touched too early.
However, it was still their kind intention, so Xavier gritted his teeth and ate it, drinking a large glass of Milk to suppress the nauseous feeling.
In less than 20 minutes, the others arrived one after another.
Xavier wore a whistle around his neck and blew it hard.
"Toot!"
The sound of the whistle made everyone's ears hurt.
Xavier picked up a pair of sunglasses from somewhere, put them on, and shouted, "Count off!"
"1!"
Little Klee was the first to shout.
"2!"
"3!"
"4!"
"..."
"14!"
"..."
The last person made a sound but didn't count off.
Xavier looked closely and saw it was Balladeer.
He didn't know how Nahida had convinced him, but she had actually called this guy over.
Although this was different from the list he had handed over to MiHoYo, it certainly wouldn't have any impact.
After all, when it came to characters, the more, the better.
"Next, we'll line up to get on the bus and head to Jiangcheng."
"Once we reach the Comic Con, you must listen to my command, understood?!"
Xavier stood with his hands behind his back, walking back and forth like an Instructor during military training.
"Understood!"
Everyone said in unison.
"Very good, everyone is very spirited!"
Everything was going even smoother than expected, which greatly pleased Xavier.
But after getting on the bus, Xavier realized he was wrong.
They had just gotten on the highway, and everyone was already in a chaotic mess.
They were either playing games, eating snacks, or fruits, and speaking very loudly.
Facing these demons, the driver seemed to be used to it.
"Alhaitham, are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Nahida was originally accompanying Klee but noticed Alhaitham was a bit off.
Alhaitham was leaning by the window, holding his forehead with his hand, and his mental state wasn't particularly good either.
"Thank you, Grass God, for your concern, but I'm fine." Alhaitham forced himself to reply.
As a native of Blue Star, Xavier seemed to have noticed something and asked, "Alhaitham, you're not carsick, are you?"
"Carsick? What's that?!"
Kaveh, who was originally far away, ran over immediately, seemingly having found something amusing.
"I know!"
As expected of 5G surfing, Furina was the fastest to receive information.
"Carsickness is motion sickness, caused by situations like bumps and swaying!"
After hearing Furina's explanation, Kaveh was first stunned, then burst out laughing.
"That's too funny, the dignified Alhaitham actually gets carsick!"
"That's hilarious, hahahaha..."
He was having fun joking around when suddenly, a sharp blade appeared at his neck.
"Compared to mockery, I think taking someone's life is more effective."
