Mission Walkthrough

Quest Walkthrough
1 After accepting the quest, proceed to the Artisanship Commission to meet up with Qingque.
2 Qingque will be there with a student called Chengjie. Qingque will accompany you inside the commission to find the Manuscript left by the late Master Ryan inside the Sapientia Academe.
3 Once the conversation ends, the room will reset. Head back inside and solve another Unearthly Marvel puzzle to get to the terminal.
4 You and Qingque will look through all the files that look like design manuscripts. Pick the one about Starskiffs and take the IPC Designer Invite with you.
5 After finding the manuscript, you will be ambushed by a monster, prepare for a battle. In the scuffle, the design manuscript will get damaged, either be honest about what happened or say it got wrecked.
7 Hand the manuscript back to Chengjie. The damaged manuscript will get him down in the dumps. Take him somewhere to clear his mind.
8 You can take Chengjie to either snacks, tea, and comedy. Pick whichever, as the only thing that will actually snap him out is a pep talk from the Trailblazer and Qingque.
9 After having a talk with Chengjie about his master, hand him the IPC Invitation. This will give him the push he needs to complete the damaged manuscript.
10 After finding what he truly wants to do, Chengjie will take you and Qingque around to how Starskiffs are made. You will then be asked to take photos at each phase:
・Germination Phase
・Embryonic Phase (Front View)
・Embryonic Phase (Side View)
・Forming Phase
11 While taking photos of the Starskiffs, Chengjie will get ambushed by enemies. There will be a fight here, so be prepared.
12 After taking the final photo, Chengjie will then resolve to finish the damaged manuscript. He will ask the Trailblazer and Quanqing to supervise him. The quest will then end here.

All Choices and Results

Choose the Starskiff Manuscript and The Designer Invite

During the quest, you have to sift through four different manuscripts to find which one you need. Choose the manuscript about Starskiffs to progress the story, as you cannot keep the other ones.

Also, you will be prompted whether you need to bring the IPC Designer Invite with you too. Take it as it is important to lift Chengjie's spirits.

Pick Whichever Activity You Want

During the quest, you can choose between drinks, tea, or comedy to help Chenjie after he sees the damaged manuscript. Choosing any option does not change the outcome as talking to the Trailblazer and Qingque will do better.
