Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 1141 Capitano: Only children make choices, I choose to take them all

The three words "a pledge of allegiance" deeply struck Frost's heart.

He took a deep breath and made up his mind.

This is the organization's recognition of myself. Instead of being an insignificant little character who just eats and waits for death all my life, I might as well give it a try. Maybe I can really make a name for myself in the cult as Yuan Shang said!

"Then, shall I give it a try?"

When Yuanshang saw that Shuangjiang was finally "tricked" into boarding the boat, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.

"That's right! You have to know that pie in the sky is something you can only encounter by chance! If you seize this opportunity, you will never regret it!"

Alas... Frost is still a young calf and horse, and doesn't understand the dangers of society.

There is no real pie falling from the sky, at most there will only be bird droppings.

Although bird droppings are somewhat nutritious for plants.

……

The perspective returns to the secret source mechanism.

Kong told Shao Yun what the substitute had prepared.

"Don't worry about the substitute. Yuanshang has already found a suitable candidate. He is an Ice Abyss Apostle who has just joined the Abyss Cult."

"The elemental attributes perfectly match Capitano's, and he has agreed to cooperate with us in this scene. Yuan Shang will also be responsible for the subsequent mimicry and disguise details."

After listening to Kong's words, Shao Yun nodded slightly and said, "In that case, we can proceed to the next step."

He pondered for a moment and quickly sorted out the general process of the plan in his mind. He told this simple process to Kong, Capitano, and Yashin who was listening in through the Secret Source Agency.

"That, in a nutshell, is the core of the whole plan."

"I need to perform a classic 'hero saves the damsel in distress' scene without Mavica's knowledge and before she uses the power of the Archon of Death."

"Then I will use the power of Apocalypse Horse to 'kill' your double in public. This extremely intimidating method will make the Doctor and his servants believe that you are dead. It will also intimidate the other members of the Fatui, making them afraid to attack Nata easily."

"As for the aftermath, whether or not we should hold a funeral for you to completely confirm the illusion of your 'death' depends on your needs."

After listening to Shao Yun's plan, Capitano showed a satisfied expression on his face. He nodded slightly and said, "The plan is generally fine. I have no objection."

"But the funeral is irrelevant. The key is that you fully demonstrate your deterrent power in front of everyone."

"Let the doctor and his servants completely believe that I am dead. They will be afraid of your strength and dare not rashly continue their plan to seize the Heart of God."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun tapped his chin lightly with his fingers and began to ponder the key detail of "how to show deterrence".

"To demonstrate deterrence, the key lies in the way of 'killing' the double."

"I'm thinking now, let Apocalypse Horse's 'Plague' power take effect, causing your stand to break out in boils and eventually explode and die."

"Or use the power of 'War' to summon flames and burn the Stand alive."

"Or, use the power of 'Famine' to summon countless locusts to devour the Stand until not even a bone is left."

"These three ways of dying are visually impactful enough and should have a good deterrent effect."

Having said that, Shao Yun changed the subject.

"'Death' can indeed break the undead curse of the Abyss Cult members, but after all, my brother-in-law's employees... are truly being treated as consumables..."

(Frost: Thank you so much...)

When Capitano heard this, he thought, "Can't we do the whole thing?"

"Only children make choices. I choose to take them all. Mr. Shao Yun, feel free to use whatever skills you have!"

"Neither the Doctor nor the servants are easily frightened. An ordinary death scene might not completely dispel their doubts."

When Shao Yun heard that Capitano wanted to make the scene even grander, he knew that he was best at dealing with this kind of "stirring up trouble" demand.

"You want all of them? You have a big appetite. We can get a combo meal."

"First, have 'Famine' summon a swarm of locusts, the kind that covers the sky and blocks out the sun. This will create an apocalyptic atmosphere and give your colleagues a visual and psychological warning."

"Then let 'War' unleash a raging flame. Without burning them, it will circle around their camp, allowing the heat and light of the flames to force them back, further increasing their psychological pressure."

"Finally, when the atmosphere reaches its climax, let the power of 'Plague' act on your Stand, causing it to quickly break into pustules all over its body. Then, it will shatter in front of everyone, with pieces flying everywhere. Create the ultimate 'feathers flying all over the sky' effect. What do you think of this?"

As he spoke, he gestured with his hands to illustrate the scene of locusts covering the sky and flames surrounding it. The vivid description made the two of them imagine the tragic and shocking scene.

After listening to the restricted scene designed by Shao Yun, Capitano was very satisfied.

"Excellent! The more cruel you are to me, and the more horrific the scene, the more my colleagues will believe that you truly intended to kill me, and the more your intimidating power will be highlighted."

"Since you could easily slaughter even me, the Fatui's First Executor, they will naturally be wary of your strength and won't dare to attack Nata again, thus buying Nata more breathing space!"

At this point, Capitano changed the subject and his tone became serious, obviously considering the subsequent hidden dangers.

"Don't worry, I will also do psychological work for my men in advance."

"After all, you're the one who 'killed' my enemy. It's inevitable that some people will harbor resentment towards you and even seek revenge on you."

"I will leave a suicide note to make it clear that I am fighting you with the intention of dying. I will not leave the subsequent mess to you."

……

In short, after this round of detailed discussions next to the Secret Source Agency, all the key details of Capitano's fake death plan have been finalized.

From the selection and disguise of the stand-in, to Shao Yun using the power of the Apocalypse Horse to create a "doomsday-level" death scene, to Capitano's subsequent arrangements to appease his subordinates and avoid retaliation, every step was planned clearly and definite.

Next, all everyone had to do was wait for the moment tomorrow when Mavica would ask Capitano to make a public statement, and then act according to plan and improvise this "faked death" drama.

After the negotiations ended, the three people walked out of the secret realm in batches, letting this meeting disappear into history.

Late at night in Nata, the cool breeze blew across the grass, creating ripples. The starry sky above was exceptionally bright, with the Milky Way clearly visible across the night sky.

Shao Yun looked up at the sky and estimated the time. If he went back now, he could still catch up on his sleep for four or five hours.

He was about to turn around and walk back towards the ranch when he caught a glimpse of Sora walking in the other direction, seemingly intending to leave on his own.

Shao Yun immediately stepped forward and called him: "Come on, brother-in-law, I'll take you home. It's on our way."

Kong's footsteps suddenly stopped. He had originally planned to go to the Abyss Cult's headquarters in the Kingdom of the Night God to see the preparations of Yuanshang and Shuangjiang. Now it seems that this plan has obviously failed.

"what?"

Shao Yun looked at Kong's "dreamy" look, stepped forward, patted him on the back of the head, and said authoritarianally:

"What? You still want to hang out here so late at night? You don't even have a home to go back to. Do you want to feed dragons on the grassland?"

After saying that, Shao Yun didn't give Kong a chance to refute or explain. He simply reached out and grabbed his arm, dragging him towards the ranch.

Kong sighed helplessly and could only follow Shao Yun's strength to move forward. Okay, it wouldn't be too late to find time tomorrow to confirm the situation of the Abyss Cult.

The two of them quickly returned to the ranch. Shao Yun did not take Kong directly to the second floor to rest, but instead pulled him into the kitchen.

After working most of the night, discussing plans and staying in the secret realm, I was already thirsty. Drinking something cool and refreshing could just relieve my fatigue.

Shao Yun opened the refrigerator and rummaged through it, asking, "Come on, brother-in-law, shall we have a drink?"

Kong stood at the kitchen door, watching Shao Yun rummaging for wine with great interest, and was completely speechless.

Drinking late at night is also no one...

"No, no, I don't want to drink. Have you forgotten that you still have to sleep next to my sister tonight?"

"You're reeking of alcohol! Aren't you afraid that you'll wake up my sister and kick you out of bed?"

Kong simply used his sister Ying as a shield, as he didn't want to get drunk.

Shao Yunting refused using Ying as a shield and took out two bottles of fruit wine that he had bought when he went to the Holy Fire Arena during the day. He could still see floating fruit pulp fragments through the bottles.

"Don't refuse so quickly, brother-in-law."

Shao Yun shook the bottle in his hand. "This isn't just any wine. It's the fruit wine I bought on my way to the Holy Fire Arena today."

"The alcohol content is very low, just like juice, and it even has a light fruity aroma. Besides, we only have one bottle each, so the amount is very small. What's there to worry about?"

Kong looked at the fruit wine in Shao Yun's hand, and when he heard him say that it was low in alcohol content and small in quantity, his worries gradually dissipated.

Indeed, after working most of the night, it would be nice to relax with a drink with some flavor, and fruit wine does sound less burdensome.

"Okay, give me a bottle then."

Seeing this, Shao Yun threw one of the bottles of fruit wine into the air and reminded him, "Here, take it! Be careful not to drop it. This bottle looks quite fragile."

Kong reached out and caught the fruit wine steadily, unscrewed the bottle cap, and a fresh fruity aroma immediately wafted out. He couldn't help but put it to his lips and take a sip.

The sweet and sour taste was just as Shao Yun said, almost like drinking juice.
