Dunyu Ruins.
Sigh… I have no leads at all…
On his way back from debt collection, Childe couldn't help but sigh. He still had no clue about the stolen Omni-Ubiquity Talisman.
Originally, he thought it was the Yanshang Teahouse that had leaked information about him possessing the Omni-Ubiquity Talisman, but after his 'friendly inquiries' and secret investigations, there was no evidence to suggest that was the case.
But if it wasn't the Yanshang Teahouse, then who leaked the information about him having the Omni-Ubiquity Talisman?
It couldn't be that the person last night just stumbled upon it by chance, could it?
No, it definitely wasn't like that.
Without a doubt, the person last night came specifically for his safe deposit box.
After all, besides his safe deposit box, that person didn't touch anything else, which says it all.
"It seems an internal investigation is needed."
As he thought, Childe muttered to himself.
But just then, he suddenly noticed a barefoot girl standing ahead, her gaze fixed on him.
Why isn't she wearing shoes?
Because the other party was a girl younger than himself, and he also had a younger sister, Childe's first thought was this.
However, while Childe was curious, the other party spoke, and the content was a bit strange, making Childe wary.
"Found you."
Found me? Is she talking about me?
Looking around, Childe couldn't help but wonder.
"Are you talking to me?"
Even though he had largely guessed that the other party was looking for him, Childe still asked tentatively.
And as he asked, he had already prepared for battle.
Although he found it hard to understand why a girl would suddenly seek him out for trouble, he wouldn't let his guard down because of this confusion.
Regardless of the opponent's strength, he would use all his might to defeat them, thereby enjoying the thrill of battle.
Even so, he still hoped the opponent's strength would be considerable, otherwise, the fun would be too little.
"Wait, are you somehow connected to the person who stole my Omni-Ubiquity Talisman?"
Suddenly realizing this, Childe seemed to understand something.
"What do you mean 'your' Omni-Ubiquity Talisman? And…" Wendy paused, then continued, "Don't think my friend Morax doesn't know what you're doing in Liyue."
Because Wendy planned to first try to frame the Geo Archon Morax, she pulled a 'friend out of thin air' act, pretending to be Morax's friend and sent by him to finish Childe.
This girl is Morax's friend???
Childe was indeed startled by Wendy's words.
If what the other party said was true, then the girl in front of him was likely sent by Morax to deal with him.
After all, he was trying to steal the Archon's Gnosis, so it was perfectly normal for them to come looking for trouble.
And if that were the case, he would know why the Omni-Ubiquity Talisman incident occurred.
So that's it… Then let's fight!
Thinking this, Childe immediately transformed pure water into weapons and held them in his hands.
Since the opponent was sent by the Geo Archon Morax, they must possess considerable strength, and he could thoroughly enjoy the thrill of battle…
Boom—
Before Childe could finish his thoughts, he suddenly felt his body take a heavy blow, then he flew backward uncontrollably and slammed hard into the mountain face.
Instantly, the mountain collapsed, burying Childe beneath.
Was I… attacked by her?
Lying beneath the rubble, Childe hadn't even processed what had happened.
He only remembered watching the girl very cautiously, and then his body suddenly took a heavy blow and flew out.
Let alone seeing the opponent's attack, he didn't even know she had attacked him before his body reacted.
Indeed… a formidable opponent!
Boom—
As streaks of purple light emanated from the cracks in the rubble, Childe, in his Foul Legacy Transformation, broke through the heavy stones and ascended into mid-air.
However, once he reached mid-air, he couldn't see where the girl from earlier was.
Where is she?
"Looking where?"
Just as Childe was searching for the girl's figure, her voice suddenly appeared behind him.
Behind me!
The moment he heard the voice, Childe immediately swung his weapon backward to attack.
However, this powerful blow was easily blocked by one of the girl's hands, and even Childe's weapon was firmly gripped by her, unable to be pulled away.
Damn it… how can she be this strong?
At this moment, Childe was in no mood to enjoy the thrill of battle.
There was no way; the disparity was simply too great. He truly hadn't enjoyed any fun at all; all he felt was deep despair.
Could it be… she's the Anemo Archon Barbatos?!
Feeling the desperate power gap between himself and the opponent, Childe couldn't help but guess the opponent's identity was the Anemo Archon Barbatos.
After all, the opponent just now said she was a friend of the Geo Archon Morax, combined with this god-like power, so Childe immediately thought of the Anemo Archon Barbatos.
But…
Boom—
After taking Childe's weapon, Wendy blasted Childe down again.
Nevertheless, Wendy frowned.
Strange… why isn't the task complete yet?
Childe's Foul Legacy Transformation has been broken by me… if I hit him again, he might die, right?
Looking at Childe below, who had already disengaged his Foul Legacy Transformation, Wendy fell into deep thought.
