Lin Ze didn't care at all about what kind of waves would be created after the Diary's contents were revealed.
At this moment, Lin Ze was still hawking his wares, selling the clothes he'd effortlessly woven from leaves.
The Black Flag Power was truly formidable, a power of the mind, completely disregarding the rules of logic.
Time passed slowly. Soon, thanks to the high quality and relatively cheap price, Lin Ze successfully sold all the clothing he had made.
It was time to meet Tianquan Star Ningguang.
As Lin Ze and Yelan began their journey, Yelan's subordinates had already relayed the news of Lin Ze and Yelan's impending visit to the Jade Chamber.
Ningguang and Keqing, who were in the middle of a discussion, also stopped their conversation and rose together, heading to the edge of the Jade Chamber to await Lin Ze's arrival.
"You must be Mr. Lin Ze?"
"I've heard a lot about you. Your insights these past few days have been truly remarkable. I am Ningguang, the Tianquan Star."
As Lin Ze and Yelan boarded the Jade Chamber, Ningguang, who had been waiting, immediately spoke.
Even Keqing, standing to the side, introduced herself.
"I am Keqing, the Yuheng Star of The Seven Stars."
"Lin Ze, it's a pleasure to meet you both."
Lin Ze clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.
After all, he had come to Teyvat, landing in Liyue.
For the sake of his future comfortable life, he naturally needed to be on good terms with The Seven Stars of Liyue.
Proper etiquette is a must. Of course, that's about all the etiquette he knows. More?
He didn't understand. He had just arrived in Liyue, and who knew what Liyue's interests were?
He was also too lazy to use his Black Flag Power to learn.
He'd just do it like this for now. Although he hadn't become an Archon, Lin Ze was confident that he could still walk all over the Teyvat continent.
It's just that Lin Ze didn't have such grand ambitions.
"Please follow me, Mr. Lin Ze. This is not the place to talk."
The clasped-fist salute also existed in Liyue, so Ningguang didn't make any further comments. She just wanted to take Lin Ze to her office as soon as possible and get straight to the point.
Following Ningguang's footsteps, Lin Ze arrived at Ningguang's office.
Looking around, the room had decorations, but they weren't extravagant. It was filled mostly with office supplies and...
Piles and piles of documents.
As the Tianquan Star, the leader of The Seven Stars, Ningguang's workload was far from as simple as it appeared in the game.
After they both sat down, Ningguang casually picked up a pipe beside her and took a puff. The specially made tobacco helped her stay more alert and focused.
Exhaling a cloud of smoke, Ningguang finally spoke.
"Mr. Lin Ze, you've probably guessed it. The three of us present are all people of destiny."
Ningguang's tone emphasized the words "people of destiny," clearly hinting at something to Lin Ze.
"So, we're all owners of the instance, not too different from what I thought."
"That's all the Diary is good for, really."
Nodding in understanding, Lin Ze's eyes flashed with disdain.
It wasn't directed at Ningguang or anyone else, but at the Diary system itself.
Look at other people's systems. Even the owners of Diary copies couldn't use any method to hint that they possessed one.
And then there was his own Diary system. Not only did it fail to provide any good rewards...
It even allowed others to hint at their identities through indirect means.
What a trash system. Bury it already!
His Black Flag Power was still the most reliable.
"Perhaps it's just like that for Mr. Lin Ze, but for us, it's truly incredibly amazing."
Hearing this, Ningguang shook her head slightly. She could see the disdain in Lin Ze's eyes.
As someone who had become one of The Seven Stars, she wasn't a fool. Ningguang also knew that Lin Ze's disdain was directed at the system instance.
"I've done some tests. This opportunity can also be used as an Artifact, and its effects are even better than a Five-Star Level weapon.
Mr. Lin Ze, judging from the information you gained from this opportunity, you should know some things about Teyvat.
In fact, in some ways, you might know more than we... the so-called natives, do."
As she spoke, a wry smile appeared on Ningguang's face.
Natives... In Lin Ze's eyes, that's all they were.
Although it wasn't a bad term, it inexplicably felt... annoying to be called that.
"I didn't expect this thing could be used as an Artifact."
Lin Ze was also somewhat surprised. Judging from Ningguang's words, the Diary instance could actually be used as an Artifact?
Lin Ze knew that Ningguang was also an Artifact-type character, so the credibility of her statement was very high.
Turning his head to look at Keqing and Yelan, both of them had a hint of surprise on their faces. It seemed that Keqing and Yelan were still unaware of this news.
However, it was also reasonable. Keqing used a sword, and Yelan used a bow. It was understandable that they didn't know.
However, what Lin Ze didn't know was that Keqing and Yelan weren't surprised by this.
They had known from the first day that instances could be used as Artifacts.
They were surprised that Ningguang didn't seem to want to hide anything from Lin Ze. Instead of letting Lin Ze continue to guess while trying to get information out of him, she directly revealed that they had the Diary instance through hints.
Previously, they couldn't even hint at it when dealing with others.
Something was off!
Whether it was why Ningguang could hint to Lin Ze, or why she chose to reveal everything directly, it seemed strange to Keqing and Yelan.
"However, what surprises me more is that you would hint at your identity. I thought you would choose to pretend not to know, just like Yelan."
Saying this, Lin Ze's lips curled into a slight smile.
It wasn't just Keqing and Yelan who were surprised; Lin Ze himself was also somewhat taken aback, and quite intrigued!
Ningguang wasn't pretending anymore, she'd chosen to reveal her hand directly.
What would Ningguang choose to do next?
Lin Ze was incredibly curious!
"In any case, even if I didn't say anything, with Mr. Lin Ze's abilities and wisdom, you would have noticed this sooner or later."
Hearing Lin Ze's words, Ningguang's lips also curved into a slight smile.
"Instead of us probing and suspecting each other,
I think it's better to just be upfront and let Mr. Lin Ze feel our goodwill.
Directly exchanging information between us is obviously a better approach."
Lin Ze is mysterious, and the Diary system is even more so.
Being able to directly exchange information is definitely more convenient and time-saving than gathering it piecemeal. The information we receive will also be more accurate!
