Genshin Impact: Great, you guys still remember

"...What?"

The rainstorm seemed to stop at this moment, countless heavy raindrops were frozen in the air, and the downpour noise turned into silence.

The pain in my chest was slowly being taken away, and then replaced by something else.

After leaving the world, there was only one voice left in her mind, almost mumbling to herself:

"What did you say?"

...

impossible,

This was the girl’s first thought.

He was fine a few days ago. Even when he left Liyue and went to other countries where he should have encountered danger, he was fine.

Why do I come back...

What's more, there is Sister Zhong Li next to me.

As long as Sister Zhong Li is around, there is no way he will encounter any danger.

As for the previous life-threatening incidents, it would never happen again.

Ge Chen and Liu Yun will only pay more attention to this aspect than I do...

What's more, he also said that he would open a shop with himself for hundreds of years.

Then he will never do anything to sacrifice his life for justice.

There was no sign, and even looking back in the past I couldn't find any reason.

Just so suddenly and inexplicably told myself that he was dead,

In the end, I didn't believe this news.

...

Not only Gui Zhong did not believe it, He Li himself did not believe it either.

"Hiss—it hurts,"

It is usually said that a person who is killed with one blow cannot feel pain.

But at this moment, He Li truly accepted this "chest pain" in both meaning and physics.

After holding his chest for a while, he finally came to his senses.

Looking at the dark world in front of me, I rubbed my head, and my previous memories gradually became clear.

It seemed like I had come to this world a long time ago, during the last simulation.

As for my situation in this area, it goes without saying.

"So... I'm dead?"

The system that hadn't appeared for decades finally spoke out.

[To be precise, yes]

"He's dead..."

After getting the answer, He Li smiled bitterly:

"I haven't had time to do anything yet."

He actually has a clear idea of ​​the meaning of his coming into this world.

That is to find the best arrangement under 'simulation'.

And for this time...

The system said:

[Perhaps the ending you set for yourself this time is too difficult]

He Li was silent,

is it hard?

In the hands of the Maintainer, the world line is forcibly twisted.

It seems to be quite difficult.

Is it necessary for him to go against fate?

Is it possible that he needs to create exceptions among countless "stills"?

It is possible that he would be punished by the Maintainer for even the slightest movement.

"But you have to try."

After all, this is just a simulation, and he has countless chances to start over.

If you are still cautious and don't have the courage to face these opportunities,

How could he say the word "love"?

"So what is my situation now?"

He Li sat on the ground and suddenly asked,

Only by returning to reality can we continue the next simulation. What does this half-dead state matter?

[The heart has been destroyed, and the divine body is losing vitality]

When the divinity is completely lost, He Li dies completely and leaves the simulation.

"Huh, so we have to wait a little longer?"

He Li lay back on the ground.

The previous process kept lingering in my mind - I had to review it.

Why did he die?

Could it be that he really saved Yasha, disrupted the world line, and then was discovered?

not necessarily,

After all, Yaksha is just a Yaksha, not even a demon god.

The impact on the world line is minimal.

Logically, this shouldn't have caught His attention.

what is that?

In just a second, He Li had the answer - the Staff of Homa.

The Homa Staff, which has its own abilities, obviously has abilities that do not belong to this world.

Even if I put on a 'Staff of Homa' shell in advance,

Then as long as I use that forbidden power,

The Staff of Homa will still be discovered by the Maintainer.

Then why did the Maintainer not react at all when I used this ability?

There is only one reason - the Homa Staff is a weapon.

It is a weapon that others can use as well.

In essence, this gun is still an object outside of destiny with the skin of "Staff of Homa".

The trick of replacing one thing with another will not work for those who maintain the relationship.

Seeing the big from the small,

If this is the case with the Homa Staff, then that matter...

He Li rubbed his temple:

“So when I think about it, this matter is really quite difficult.”

The more difficult it is, the more trials and simulations are required.

【Did you ever think that you would be saved? 】

"Save? How? Everyone's heart is unique. Heart transplants don't work in this world.

Besides..."

He Li paused, then chuckled:

"Besides, I still have a lot of life left. Saving me is not worth it—"

...

I still don't know how I got here.

It seemed like just two steps, just denying the messages that came a few times, just thinking about it in my mind,

She came to the foot of Mount Aozang,

There were many immortals surrounding the wooden house, each with a look of sadness or resentment on their faces.

And a few people, after seeing her, trotted over despite the heavy rain.

And patted her shoulder gently,

"After all...Everyone knows that you are the one who clings to him the most, but this time..."

Halfway through their conversation, they started wiping away their tears.

"..."

In the end, nothing was said.

It seems like there are thousands of words in my heart, but when I open my mouth, nothing can come out.

Finally, amid the roar of the rainstorm, she stood in front of the door.

...

"His heart was ripped out,"

Zhong Li said:

"It was erased on a certain level by some existence."

Liu Yun gritted his teeth, and the sound flowed out from between his teeth:

"Some kind of existence? Why would some kind of existence target him?"

"He has a special status... No one knows what he did,"

Zhong Li was actually quite confused about this.

Like He Li, she did not think that just saving a few Yakshas would lead to the Maintainer's annihilation.

The problem then can only lie in the weapon he used.

That weapon was destined to have incredible power from the moment it was born.

And this is also what Zhong Li is confused about - why did he want to make that weapon.

The reason he gave himself at the time was to "improve his strength".

During the conversation with He Li, she did notice from the clues that He Li had an idea.

He seemed to want to change something.

Perhaps this change includes things that the maintainers cannot tolerate.

...

"His heart has been wiped out. When the divinity in his body disappears, he will be gone forever."

Zhong Li sighed and turned away, unable to bear to look at He Li lying on the bed:

"And I can only delay the process of this divinity disappearing."

The word "disappeared" brought complete silence to the room.

The remaining sound of rain outside the house hits the tiles,

After a while, a voice was heard again in the house:

"Without the support of his heart, he will not wake up even if he just maintains his divinity."

In response, she turned around again and looked at the two women in the room seriously:

"If you believe in him, and believe that he will come back eventually, I have an idea..."

...

There was some struggle in Zhong Li's eyes. She lowered her head and dropped her hands, seeming to be in great difficulty.

But not long after, she finally said it:

"Let him go, and wait for him to come back again."

As soon as these words came out, it was like something was pulled out, causing Zhong Li, who had always stood as tall as a rock, to sway twice.

She also knew how cruel this sentence was to them, and how painful this choice was for them.

But someone has to make this choice.

If it was just because I couldn't bear to let him go, I would let He Li lie here like a living dead for hundreds or thousands of years.

No matter who it is, it is a very painful thing.

Because, while waiting for him to wake up like a miracle, I also cut off his chance to appear in this world again.

You have to let him go first before he comes back.

But this also has a price, the price is——

The person who made the suggestion, in the time between death and return,

Will inevitably bear the cost of most of He Li's death——

'It was you who advocated letting him die, and now he hasn't come back. It's all your fault!

If I had known earlier, I would have let him sleep there. Who knows if a miracle will happen someday?'

Someone has to make this choice.

As for Zhong Li,

This choice can only be proposed by Zhong Li.

She is willing to take on that responsibility.

...

Silence, another long silence.

The three people present were all very aware of He Li's specialness.

He keeps coming back and forth...

But that is just understanding, just understanding,

For such illusory things,

No one dares to gamble.

What if he... just can't come back? What if this is his 'last life'?

If, there are many ifs...

Death is a very heavy word.

...

I do not know how long it has been,

"If you can't find a way... then..."

...

"Maybe I have an idea."

Bang! The door suddenly opened. It was more like it was knocked open.

The three of them turned their heads at the same time, and as the sunlight and water vapor poured in, they saw the girl trembling slightly at the door.

Her eyes were fixed on the figure lying on the bed.

Staying in the empty chest,

She tried hard to hold back the spasms caused by the pain, and her voice trembled a little:

"I have a way to wake him up. Can... can it prevent him from dying?"

...

"what?!"

Liu Yun, who was already in despair, and Ping'er, who was sitting at the head of the bed, stood up straight at once, their eyes gleaming with dazzling light, and they took a step forward to Gui Zhong.

"Do you have any idea?"

"I...I want to try..."

Facing the two people's expectant gazes, he returned to the end and said.

Zhong Li, who was not far away, couldn't help but frowned when he heard her words.

Give it a try, maybe...

Sure enough, the next moment, Gui Zhong covered his chest.
