Genshin Impact: Without the Eye of God, the Original Man Witnesses the Original

"We're back. Where's Zhiqiong? Why isn't she here again?" Paimeng looked at the camp and greeted everyone.

The middle-aged security technician Jin Wu stopped what he was doing and turned around to answer, "In order to further analyze the mysterious crystal, she went to the location affected by the black mud and set up a beacon to measure the energy wavelength."

"Who is this person..." She looked at Jiang Yi, guessing secretly in her heart.

"Well... just call me Jiang Yi." Jiang Yi suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have a good identity to introduce himself in Liyue. The Patriarch of Lingshan, the True Man Taiyi, the Master of the Flying Sword, the Seven Star Collaborator... none of them seemed suitable to be introduced in this occasion.

"Got it..." Jiang Yi smiled.

"I am the investigator of 'Sky Nail' of the Layered Abyss commissioned by Yuheng Tianquan and I am from Fusheng Technology Rune Company. Nice to meet you all." Before coming to Layered Abyss, I had told the two Seven Stars about this identity and that I would just have to follow the procedures to get it done.

“I don’t deserve it, I don’t deserve it!” Jin Wu waved his hand, “So it’s Master Jiang Yi. Your achievements and reputation are almost known to everyone in Liyue.”

"God of Man?" Next to him, the exploration team's scholar Hedifu, who was conscientiously assembling a device, looked up hurriedly.

The Mond man Kritov, who was squatting on the ground and was a former member of the treasure-stealing group and a blasting expert who was later recruited into the exploration team, also raised his head and said, "Swordmaster of the West Wind?"

The Mondstadt bard Taliesin, who was writing an epic poem, also came out from behind the camp.

"In the dark shadows underground, there are always strange noises, like the 'murmurs of rocks'... I can't sleep at night. Now, I feel a lot more at ease." As a wandering poet, he has heard many myths about Jiang Yi and has written several poems with Jiang Yi as the theme.

At this moment, I really want to drink a glass of dandelion wine to celebrate the arrival of the Sword Master of West Wind.

"Everyone, please feel free..." Jiang Yi saw that the people around him seemed a little restrained after he came, and immediately said, "After I meet Miss Zhiqiong who drew the map of the Layered Rock Abyss, I will go to explore the 'Sky Nail'. This time, I brought you some food to comfort you all for your hard work."

It's almost time for dinner.

So, after taking out some supplies from the cave, he created some delicious dishes.

"This... this is too luxurious..." Kritov, a former member of the treasure-stealing group, looked at the table filled with Mondstadt toast, Liyue boiled fish and other delicacies from both countries.

Isn't this really an illusion?

God’s power is so great that he can create so many things out of thin air.

"What a pity, I haven't been to Xumi yet, and haven't tasted the most authentic Xumi cuisine..." Jiang Yi used his magic power to conjure up some improved versions of the Xumi food he had eaten in Liyue and Mondstadt.

"No! This miraculous scene makes scholars crazier than delicious food." Xumi scholar Haidif said in shock.

Paimon wiped his drool and said, "I remember that Jiang Yi also has the title of 'God of Cookery'."

"Paimeng, you don't want to go find Zhiqiong after dinner, do you?" Ying put her hands on her hips.

"Hehe, if we delay for a while, it should be fine!" Paimeng scratched his head, "Jiang Yi, can you tell me about Zhiqiong's safety first?"

Jiang Yi motioned for everyone to sit down and start eating.

"Don't worry about it... I can save her temporarily, but not forever. According to what you said, Miss Zhiqiong is not someone who cares about her own safety. Maybe letting her experience the feeling of being close to death a little more will be more helpful for our subsequent treatment of her."

Not taking a rest when your body feels unwell is a sign of an adventurer's tenacity, but sometimes doing something knowing it is impossible is not advisable.

Although his physical condition was very bad, he still chose to stay in the Layered Abyss and carry out increasingly dangerous tasks.

Worthy of respect, but not worth promoting.

"Ah..." Paimon looked worried, "It means she is not in good condition now."

"Paimon, eat first." Ying gave a wink.

What Jiang Yi said makes sense.

You can save someone temporarily, but you can’t save them forever.

The three of them talked secretly so that the people in front could not hear them.

Everyone sat down and chatted at the same time.

Everyone present has a story.

Jin Wu, a safety technician, has been learning equipment repair and maintenance from his father since he was a teenager.

When her father got old and his eyesight deteriorated, he passed the position to her.

She got married and had a daughter, who is now studying in Xumi, but her husband is gone. Mines are always dangerous, and can bury entire families of men. Many of the children left behind are taken care of by her.

She carried some ordinary lumps of sugar as little sweet treats, and some pretty little stones for the little children who looked at her eagerly with their sweet-smelling eyes.

In this world, everyone is struggling to cross the sea of ​​suffering, experiencing the ups and downs of life.

Who else can be an exception?

How difficult it is to fulfill the great wish of saving all living beings. Jiang Yi drank tea, not sighing for the other party, but feeling impressed by the other party's strength.

Kritov, a former member of the treasure-stealing group, had a past life full of comedy.

In the Chasm, iced juice is sold as a potion that can increase strength. Because it is cheap, the miners are happy to be fooled.

Later, just as he was about to change his career, he was caught by a treasure-stealing group and forced to join them.

They stole ore and glass crystal sand for smuggling, and played hide-and-seek with patrols.

Because of Ying's earthquake, his exploration mission in the Layered Abyss failed, and he lost many brothers, so he was sent to feed the treasure-hunting weasels raised by the treasure-hunting group. In the past, he was often late for twenty-seven days a month. This time, he accidentally issued a wrong command, and the treasure-hunting weasels stole all the treasure of the treasure-hunting group.

The leader of the treasure-stealing group, who was almost mad with anger, was researching explosives and found out that the formula had also been stolen by him.

The treasure-hunting group captured the other party under the huge rock abyss and imprisoned them in the treasure-hunting weasel's cage.

He almost messed up all the treasure-stealing team's missions by himself.

Later he was rescued by Ying and joined the exploration team.

Decided not to join a treasure-hunting group anymore.

"The Treasure Stealing Group doesn't need new Mora brothers. They are brothers because they don't need Mora. Those 'donkey people' need some food... I remembered that I couldn't deliver the food to them because of me." Kritov laughed. "I saw a lost document in the temporary main mine tunnel before."

"It's an emergency order from the Yujingtai Secretariat... It seems that because of the previous incident at the Qunyu Pavilion, the cooperation agreement between Liyue and the Kingdom of Winter to jointly explore the Layered Abyss has been invalidated, and it requires the arrest of all the Fatui who witnessed the Layered Abyss. Now, is this rule still in effect? ​​If I provide information about the location of the Fatui, can it write off my previous work for the Treasure Stealing Group? Lord Jiang Yi."

He rubbed his hands.

Jiang Yi has a close relationship with the Seven Stars and is also an important figure in Liyue. With his help, he will not be troubled by the Thousand Rocks Army in the future.

"You have to ask the General Affairs Department about this matter, but it should be possible..." Jiang Yi smiled. He said it ambiguously. After all, he did not interfere in Liyue's political affairs.

"As for the treasure-stealing group on the ground, I heard that they have been captured by the Qianyan Army. You don't have to worry about retaliation."

He heard from Keqing that they found the "Cup of Drinking Together", one of the six offerings scattered in the Layered Abyss, from the treasure-stealing group. It was an old, broken brown cup made of neither stone nor jade, and had once held fine wine, treasure, and blood. But now it had fallen into the hands of thieves, but luckily it was recovered.

The crime of stealing this item alone is enough to get the treasure-stealing group into trouble.

Kritov told Jiang Yi the location where the Fatui had agreed to trade food with them.

"I remember that the demolitionist we contacted was also from Mond, but the other party sent a message saying that the demolitionist blew up the stove of a deer hunter, and her guardian...some cavalry captain? They were all put in solitary confinement. So, we can only let Kritov try." Jinwu now feels that the reply letter is strange. Is it some kind of code?

"Cough cough!" Ying and Paimeng reacted so violently that they almost choked.

"So this kind of thing actually happened! Haha." Paimon recalled that when he went to the ground to check the jade slip, he had indeed not heard from Klee for several days. It turned out that she was put in solitary confinement! This time, even the jade slip was confiscated.

The bard Taliesin was showing Jiang Yi a story he had written in an embarrassed manner.

"According to legend, in the lava pool next to the place where the dragon Durin fell... there is a brass ring with a beautiful red gem inlaid on it."

??? Paimeng really wanted to ask where the lava pool on the snowy mountain came from.

"The ring exudes a smoldering dark flame... Once its owner wears it, he will be stared at by His Majesty the Dragon, the Lord of the Abyss, and hunted down by his dark army..."

"That dragon, His Majesty, is the one who appeared on the snowy mountain. He has a slender figure, dissolving space, shaking the universe and the stars, and has wings that cover the sky and the sun. He is a monster from the abyss that is more terrifying than Durin."

"..." Jiang Yi just thought for a moment whether he should kill this guy. Could this be a coincidence?

However, the title of the Lord of the Abyss seems to be a very good one.

"Ah! Your Majesty the Demon Dragon..." Paimeng chuckled and looked at Jiang Yi.

"It can't be true?" Ying joked.

"This is obviously a dramatic treatment by the bard!" Jiang Yi gave the gaze of "Lord of the Abyss" and stared at the bard. Tomorrow, I will send the Golden King Beast and its subordinates to hunt you down.

"Uh, uh, what's the matter? What's the matter? Lord Swordmaster of Favonius, are you dissatisfied with this story?" The bard Taliesin shuddered.

"Very good. It would be more reasonable to set the lava pool to be created by Durin's humus dragon blood. However, Lord of the Abyss, why do you want to hunt down the ring holder? You have to add some information. Or change this setting..." Jiang Yi helped very seriously.

Many years later, perhaps this will also be a fairy tale or epic that is a metaphor for history.

"Well! Because Durin is a subordinate of the Lord of the Abyss, and the ring is stained with Durin's blood, people who wear the ring will naturally be hated. Will the other party avenge Durin?" The bard fell into deep thought.

"Or maybe... the Lord of the Abyss, who plundered princesses from various countries, will be challenged by the one wearing the ring, so he will kill the hero in advance? No, no, no! The story of Dragon Quest is too cliché. The Lord of the Abyss should be invincible, so there is no hero?"

Ying and Paimon lowered their heads.

My stomach hurts from laughing.

Yoyo! The Lord of the Abyss who plundered princesses from all over the world is right in front of you.

Jiang Yi looked at the bard speechlessly.

Sure enough, it is better to send the dark army to fulfill the other party's wish. After all, the ring in the story, the prop, is on him.

"It's been a long time since we've had such a joyful chat." Xumi scholar Haidifu drank the bitter tea, "This is the tea brewed by Liyue Qingxin!"

"That's right." Jiang Yi nodded.

"No wonder, under the abyss, affected by the environment here, the black mud... everyone has become irritable and impatient. Usually we can only avoid each other and communicate less to avoid conflicts." Haidi sighed, "I prepared some medicine, but it can only alleviate the situation."

Jiang Yi handed over a few golden amulets with the six-syllable mantra engraved inside: "If you really feel that your anger cannot be contained, take this with you! The mantra power above will protect your consciousness."

On the amulet, the six-petal mantra lotus slowly rotates, bringing a solemn and dignified supreme Buddhist chant that calms people's minds.

As if seeing compassion, as if seeing wisdom.

After Khediv took it, he stood there in a daze.
