Yozuna Niu Sneaks Into a Bank Vault to Finish Act III of Genshin Impact’s Chapter VII

NEO-PORTE — Yozuna Niu of Neo-Porte played through the story of Genshin Impact’s Chapter VII, Act III, ‘Like Waking From a Dream of the White Night,’ in a stream of about three and a half hours on Monday. The session took the Traveler from a council with the Tsaritsa of Snezhnaya to a stealthy break-in at the Northland Bank’s vault, and closed out the act with an arranged meeting between the Tsaritsa and Rhinedottir.

Niu opened by replaying footage of a story quest she said she had stumbled into by accident while exploring, stressing that it was only a small part. ‘It’s not a picture-story show,’ she joked, before running the video. From there she followed the Traveler’s invitation, arranged by Tartaglia, to the palace, with a first-person restaurant scene along the way. At the council, the Tsaritsa called off the investigation of the Traveler and granted access to the palace.

The story then turned to a plan to collect people’s life force, which brought crowds to the bank and rumors that it was being siphoned off and sold. Niu’s party went undercover, one member made up as an old man, to draw out a go-between, and then followed the trail into the bank’s vault area through a secret tunnel, slipping past guards with Vesna’s help. Pantalone appeared in the final vault, and a fight with a monster followed. Rhinedottir then made her entrance, and the Tsaritsa agreed to meet her again in seven days. Niu said the act was shorter than she had expected.

Chat reacted throughout to the cutscenes and voice cast. Between scenes Niu said she had been out for three days running, had eaten ramen on the way home and was short on sleep, and that she was busy with preparations for a year-end live. She said she might take the next day off, then signed off for the night as chat answered with goodnights.
