Chapter 46 - Chapter 46: The Argument Between Ningguang and Beidou, and Keqing's Hard-Fought Battle

Ningguang:It seems that when I am not in the Jade Chamber, your audacity grows ever greater. I told you clearly last time not to get him drunk!

Beidou:We just had a few drinks, what's the big deal?! Besides, we were in your home; it's not like anything would have happened!

As she said this, she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt, hoping that the girl Baiwen wouldn't say too much.

Ningguang:It's not about being afraid of something happening! Keqing is in a mission world right now! A three-star mission with no prior intelligence! If she fails, it's not just a loss of fifty thousand points. Her personal safety will be at risk!

For some reason, her temper was exceptionally fiery today. Even Ganyu could tell that something was off with Ningguang.

Ganyu:Alright, alright, Ningguang, don't be so angry. Beidou also set sail immediately without any rest, all for the sake of your mission.

Hu Tao:That's right, don't fight. How about this? Lady Ningguang can just assign someone to follow Su Han. The next time he dares to drink, they can just snatch the bottle away from him.

Xiangling:I've already sent some sobering soup to Brother Su Han. He should be waking up soon. Everyone, please stop arguing.

Seeing the group in a chaotic mess, Su Han knew he couldn't hide any longer. After all, the trouble had started because of him.

Su Han:Ahem… hello, everyone. Who accepted the mission today?

Ganyu:Hah… you're awake. The person who accepted the mission today is Keqing. It's a three-star mission, and the enemy is very tricky. It's a person who can turn into sand.

Su Han:Sand? Could it be that guy…

He quickly looked at the group live stream. In the video, Keqing was in the middle of a desert, locked in a fierce battle with an enemy.

However, she was clearly struggling. Her opponent could manipulate sand to attack, and the range of his attacks was enormous.

In the mission world, a man in a large, black coat swung his blade.

"Desert Spada!"

BOOM!

A massive blade of compressed sand tore through the ground, flying straight towards Keqing's position.

Fortunately, her reaction was swift. She instantly deployed a Lightning Stiletto and teleported away.

Looking at the two-meter-wide gash in the sand, a hint of relief flashed in Keqing's violet eyes. If she had been hit by that attack, she would have been grievously injured.

She panted heavily, her mind racing to think of a strategy to defeat this terrifying "Sand Crocodile."

Just then, Crocodile straightened up and gave a sinister smile. "I don't know where you came from, but you're not nearly enough to stand in my way. Just like that Straw Hat kid from before, I will bury you beneath the sands."

Countless grains of sand gathered in his hand, clearly preparing for his next attack.

I can't let this continue. I have to think of a way. I can't bring shame to the name of the Liyue Qixing, Keqing thought. But the enemy can elementalize his body, and I can't. What should I do?

For a moment, Keqing was at a stalemate.

Half an hour ago, the mission had refreshed. Because Beidou and Su Han had been drinking, Su Han was still passed out drunk. Seeing this, Ningguang had naturally flown into a rage. But in the midst of their argument, the mission countdown was about to expire.

Seeing the situation, Keqing had accepted the mission directly and arrived in the world of One Piece. She had thought that with her swordsmanship and rich combat experience, she could complete this three-star mission.

But only after truly fighting him did she understand the terror of her opponent.

This was a pirate who could turn his body into an element. And in the middle of a desert, he had a natural geographical advantage.

However, with her ability to move with her Lightning Stiletto, Keqing had managed to get close to the enemy twice. But alas, her sword techniques had no effect on his elementalized body.

And during those two failed attempts, Keqing had been injured. Blood seeped through her trousers, slowly dripping onto the sand below.

In the Multiverse Mission Group chat.

Hu Tao:Oh no, Keqing is injured! She must have been hit when she tried to get close just now! Su Han, you have to think of something, quick!

Kaedehara Kazuha:The enemy is someone who can elementalize his body. I remember that the power of Haki can be used to touch their real body. Miss Keqing…

Ningguang:Although she has condensed Haki, she can't channel it into her hands yet.

Su Han:I'm contacting her right now!

No one was more anxious than Su Han, because Keqing was one of his designated future wives.

But this woman was truly too stubborn. She didn't know Haki, yet she didn't ask him for help. All she knew was how to act tough.

Just wait until you get back, I'll teach you a lesson.

In the world of One Piece, Keqing, who had been constantly moving with her Lightning Stiletto, finally received Su Han's message.

Su Han:There are two ways to defeat Crocodile. The first is to use water. His elementalization is special; it's completely nullified if he gets wet. The second method is for you to master Haki and imbue it into your sword. That will have the same effect. If you really can't do it, just forfeit the mission.

After reading the message from Su Han, Keqing smiled faintly. "How could I give up? Fifty thousand points can be exchanged for many treasures. These are things money can't buy."

Now that she knew the method, defeating the pirate captain before her would be simple.

Because in the middle of their fight just now, she had happened to see a water barrel.
