"This instant noodles is so delicious. What do you think, guest?" After eating three buckets of noodles in a row, Hu Tao touched his full stomach and looked happily at Zhongli who had been silent all the time.

"Delicious." Although the instant noodles tasted delicious, Zhongli had never eaten anything more delicious than instant noodles in all these years, but the reason why Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun suddenly appeared in a younger appearance was obviously more important than whether the instant noodles tasted good.

Thinking about why Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun became the appearance of 'Grandma Ping', Zhongli sighed lightly, with a hint of relief in his expression.

Could it be that... this store and its owner are really extraordinary?

He had just arrived in Liyue, and he had already solved the knot in Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun's heart that he had not been able to solve for so many years?

At this time, Zhongli did not know much about Internet cafes. Although he heard a few words that the games in the Internet cafes were very similar to reality, and that there were some magical features in the Internet cafes that ordinary people could hardly imagine, he did not have a specific and in-depth understanding. Some core news that only experienced customers could know, such as "resurrection", was not something that Zhongli, who had just become a customer of the Internet cafe, could know.

"Hey~ Zhongli, you actually said that instant noodles are 'delicious'!" Hu Tao looked at Zhongli in disbelief as he also ate two buckets of noodles. She thought that after having been in contact with Zhongli for such a long time, she often heard ambiguous words like 'ok' or 'not bad' from him.

For this reason, she even complained about Zhongli, saying that delicious is delicious, what does it mean to be just okay?

But today, I don’t know if it was because the sun rose from the west, but Zhongli actually used a positive word to praise a delicacy for the first time. This is really like a new daughter-in-law pushing a millstone, this is the first time!

“From a general perspective, this bucket of noodles is perfect in terms of both ingredients and creativity, and it deserves the word ‘delicious’…”

……

After tasting the delicious food, Hu Tao had already forgiven Su Li in her heart for his previous bad behavior of teasing her.

at this time.

She looked at the loading screen of the game on the screen and couldn't help but feel excited. She had been looking forward to this game for so long, and now she was finally going to play it!

Zhongli also came back to his senses from his admiration for the fact that Master Ge Chenlang had returned to his youthful appearance. For him, it would be a blessing if his old friend could untie his knot with the help of this store.

The vague sense of vigilance towards the Internet cafe and its owner Su Li also disappeared inadvertently.

Apart from the strange look Su Li gave him at the beginning that made Zhongli a little worried, he really didn't feel any malice towards Liyue from Su Li.

For someone planning a stable retirement, this is enough.

Put your focus back on the game.

Maybe it was because Hu Tao had been talking about it from yesterday to this morning, or maybe he had heard it by chance from a Liyue person who was discussing the magic of Internet cafes. Anyway, Zhongli, who had never had any interest in Internet cafes or Internet cafe games before, was now a little curious about what was so special about the "Genshin Impact" that everyone talked about all the time.

until…

"Outsiders, your journey ends here!"

puff--!

Zhongli asked for some hot water from Master Chenlangshi and made a cup of tea he brought with him. He couldn't hold back a sip of tea and sprayed it all on the screen.

……

"Although the computer is waterproof, remember not to spray water on the screen next time." Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun wiped the computer dry with a rag, then said to Zhongli while trying hard to suppress a smile.

“…I got it.” Even though Zhongli has lived for thousands of years and is quite thick-skinned, he couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed at this moment.

The main reason is that he kept guessing but never expected that this game called Genshin Impact would give him such an explosive scene as soon as it opened.

Looking at the screen where the fight had already gone on for a while and the player was about to choose whether to play the game with his sister or brother, Zhongli inexplicably developed a deep admiration for Su Li, who created this game.

How confident is a person in his own ability to dare to associate something that seems to be entertainment for the masses with "Sky Island"? !

"Hey~ Guest, you should really be thankful that this computer is waterproof, otherwise, this hall master may not be able to afford the compensation for such a magical thing~" Hu Tao felt relieved when she saw that Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun just warned Zhongli and left to do other work.

"Sorry..." Zhongli apologized for his inappropriate behavior just now.

After the episode, Zhongli and Hutao continued their gaming journey.

Under Keqing's guidance, Zhongli and Hutao both knew the rule that they could name the character freely after choosing the perspective.

After asking about Keqing's game name and learning that her name was 'Golden Shrimp Ball', Hu Tao immediately thought of what game name she should come up with.

After deciding on the name, Hu Tao looked around curiously again. She was quite curious about what kind of name Zhongli would be given since he was usually too calm and not at all energetic like a young man.

[Zhongli, a guest official at the Hall of Rebirth]

walnut:"……"

Sure enough, it is worthy of being called Zhongli, right?

Such a serious name is indeed in line with Zhongli's usual style of doing things.

After choosing a name, the two entered the game and started their first gaming journey.

……

"What! That guy in front who doesn't do anything but drink and looks so unreliable, Wendy... is the Mondstadt wind god Barbatos?!"

Later, Walnut, who had reached the third act of the prologue, was stunned.

She didn't expect that as a country's god, his image would be so... down-to-earth.

"When I first finished this part of the story, I was also shocked by the news that Venti was the God of Wind~" Keqing, who was standing by, couldn't help but smile when she saw the shocked expression on Hutao's face.

She had finished the third act an hour earlier, so she knew Wendy's true identity.

Although she was not as shocked as Hu Tao at that time, she did not expect that Wendy would be the God of Wind.

However, unlike Hu Tao, she did not make any statement after learning the news. Looking at Hu Tao and Zhongli who were concentrating on playing games beside her, for some reason, she really wanted to see what expressions these two would have when they found out that Venti was the God of Wind.

Now, seeing Hu Tao's shocked expression as expected, Keqing felt as relaxed as if she had drunk a large glass of ice water in the dog days of summer!

Then Keqing turned her attention to the silent Mr. Zhongli, but unexpectedly found that Zhongli did not show any surprise that Venti was the God of Wind. Looking at Zhongli's face, Keqing felt that Mr. Zhongli, who usually remained calm in the face of a mountain collapse, seemed to be a little... sweaty? !

Zhongli looked deeply at Barbatos, whose real name was called out by Tevarin on the screen. Although he recognized Wendy when he first met her in the game, he never expected that Wendy's vest would be revealed in the subsequent game plot, letting everyone who played the game know Wendy's identity...

Not to mention that when the prologue ended, Zhongli came to Fengqidi and had a brief conversation with Wendy. After learning from Wendy that the annual "Ceremony of Inviting the Immortals" in Liyue in the game was about to begin, his pupils shrank slightly and he began to sweat profusely.

Could it be...

Zhongli realized something and looked at Keqing, who had completed all the tasks and was using Keqing to hoe the ground. He asked tentatively: "Keqing, does the plot of the game end after solving the dragon plague in Mondstadt?"

“No…” Keqing looked at Zhongli in surprise and said, “There is also a legendary quest for Venti later. Only after completing the legendary quest can we complete the entire storyline.”

Zhongli's eyelids jumped when he heard Keqing say "no", but he felt relieved when he heard what Keqing said next.

No subsequent plot...

He couldn't imagine that if this game had a subsequent plot, and the subsequent plot was similar to Mondstadt's plot and revolved around the gods of a country...how terrible that would be!

Not to mention the distant past, even Hu Tao and Keqing knew his identity...

Hiss…I dare not think about it!

Fortunately, the plot of the game ends here.

Although he comforted himself in this way, for some reason, Zhongli still had a vague feeling that something was wrong...

It seems that he was happy too early???
