Chapter 562 Do you want to give it a try?
Wisps of wind gathered around the stragglers, gradually transforming into rings of whirlwinds that enveloped him.
Kong, holding Paimon, took several steps back, feeling the wind elemental power that was almost of the same origin as his own, and couldn't help but turn to look at Xu Ning's Dust Concealment Gourd.
However, at this moment, the Dust Concealment Gourd was rapidly releasing a mist of wine amidst a soft murmur, obscuring Xu Ning's figure.
Nasida was initially startled, but then realized what was going on.
"What kind of habit is this? Do you always have to be the first to get everything?"
Just as he turned around to ask a question, Xu Ning was nowhere to be seen.
Naxida's forehead leaf lit up, and she reached into the mist of wine and pulled Xu Ning out.
"What are you hiding? Do you think I didn't know that you used the power of the World Tree to hide the slice of that doctor's body in the workshop last time?"
They thought they had done something foolproof, but little did they know that they had already been seen through.
Xu Ning scratched his head awkwardly, "I don't want to hide it either, but Qingyi always does it this way."
Nasida pointed upwards, "That person fell into a deep sleep some time ago and no longer has the energy to deal with you."
As they were talking, a flash of white light appeared, and Wendy appeared holding a bowl of wine. She smiled and said, "I was so excited watching what was happening inside. His words really resonated with me. I almost wanted to write them into my poetry..."
At this moment, all the wind surrounding the scattered soldiers had gathered in front of him, condensing into a hazy blue divine eye.
Completely different from the Eye of God in Mondstadt with its wind wings, the Eye of God in front of the skirmisher actually has a leaf-shaped base unique to Sumeru.
The soldier slowly opened his eyes, tilted his head, and grinned, "Heh, I actually managed to turn misfortune into blessing and obtain the power of the wind element. I can only say thank you, good brother. I'll have a good drink with you later."
Wendy smiled and raised her wine bowl in the distance, indicating that she had received the thanks.
“Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to overstep your bounds like this?” Narcida whispered to Wendy.
Wendy said "Hi," and replied, "You said He's asleep. Besides, this Eye of God doesn't belong to Mondstadt. Judging from its appearance, it's under your jurisdiction!"
Nasita looked shocked. Was she still too young as a god?
Before Nasita could even condemn Wendy's underhanded tactics, a flash of white light appeared, and Wendy had already retreated back into the Dust-Hidden Cave.
The soldier smiled and greeted the others, "Then I'll head back to Dust-Hidden Cave to drink with Wendy."
Naxi Da said quietly, "You've already guessed my intentions, haven't you? So you want to use the Dust Concealment Cave to escape from me, is that it?"
The stragglers who had already reached Xu Ning's side turned around and asked, "Is Lord Little Grass God talking about me?"
Nasita smiled slightly, "After all, as a wise god, I can still clearly deduce these things. Although I usually see them directly from other people's minds, if you want me to provide evidence, I will have to demonstrate the power of dreams again."
Paimon was clearly a little confused for a moment. Holding Mora in his arms, he looked around at this and that, and finally could only whisper to the air, "Do you know what kind of riddle they are talking about?"
Kong said helplessly, "It means that not only have the memories of the scattered soldiers been restored, but their personalities have also been restored. They are just acting now, trying to use Xu Ning to get rid of the possible control of the Grass God."
Paimon thought about it carefully, "If that's the case, then it means... it means... I didn't actually lose at all! It was all a lie, Qingyi, give me back my money! Give me back my money!"
The soldier adjusted his hat and suddenly changed his tone, "That's why I hate people like you who can read minds the most. You leave people with no privacy at all."
After making a disdainful remark about Naxida, the stragglers turned to look at the noisy Paimon.
"Stop arguing, little brat. Of those three options you mentioned, how much should you have won?"
Paimon said, "You didn't betray your enemy or kill Xu Ning, so you endured humiliation. At a payout of 1 to 10, I should win a million Mora."
"How many Mora did Xu Ning give you?"
Paimon looked down and counted the Mora in his arms; it was exactly one million Mora.
The soldier sneered and looked at Xu Ning, "You saw through it from the very beginning?"
Xu Ning took a sip of wine, thought for a moment, and said, "Actually, I didn't see it coming. It's similar to Nasida. It's just a rough deduction. After all, given your past personality, it would be fine if you lost your memories, but if you regained them, I absolutely do not believe that you would still be like this."
As he spoke, Xu Ning glanced at the scattered soldiers, "You want to borrow my Dust Concealment Gourd to escape from Sumeru, and then use an excuse to leave and seek revenge on the Doctor?"
The soldier remained silent, but his expression clearly conveyed that was the meaning.
"You killed the slice on the ship with lightning, and I killed the slice that made a deal with the little grass god. I'm afraid the other slices of the Doctor won't appear in front of us so easily anymore..."
Before Xu Ning could finish speaking, the soldier interrupted, "Are you trying to persuade me to stay in Sumeru and deal with those fools until winter, so that he can come out and clean up the mess?"
"...You can continue to play with Shadow Wolf in my cave. I don't think this Grass God will insist on keeping you here."
After thinking for a moment, the soldier finally made up his mind and said, "The dogs will definitely recognize that I'm different, so I won't go back."
Xu Ning shrugged at Naxida, "Congratulations on getting such a great help. Alright, I should go now. I've been helping you guys all day and haven't had a proper chance to stay in Liyue. I need to get some rest when I get back."
Xu Ning asked Kong if he wanted to go back with him. Kong said that he wanted to travel around Sumeru for a while longer, but if Brother Xu was preparing to get married, he could teleport to Liyue to attend the banquet as soon as he sent a message.
"Haha, I will definitely inform my friends all over the world when the time comes, and I certainly won't forget you."
Xu Ning said goodbye to everyone and was preparing to leave.
The skirmisher suddenly spoke up and asked, "Didn't you activate the memory orb I gave you?"
Xu Ning paused for a moment, then asked, "No, what's wrong?"
The soldier suddenly laughed and said, "Look, I lost my memory, then regained it, and started a new life. Why don't you try it too? It's really interesting."
