Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

What else could Abedo say? He couldn't say anything at the moment, because he really didn't know why this Rock God was hiding his identity.

However, since the other party is hiding their identity, they must have their reasons. How can they cover up their lie?

Just as Abedo's clever mind was working quickly, Zhongli slowly said, "Of course I have met him. Back in Liyue, I asked Abedo to paint a picture for me, but neither of us revealed our names."

"That's why Aberdo didn't recognize me, which surprised me to some extent."

"I never imagined that Abedo, who is such a good painter, would be an alchemist."

Zhongli said this with a hidden meaning in his words. He knew Abedo's identity the moment he entered, but that was normal... He did indeed deserve to be called the strongest alchemist.

Abedo nodded slightly and exclaimed, "I never expected that Mr. Zhongli would be a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth."

Abedo's words were clearly loaded with meaning, as if to say, "It's quite unexpected that you would be a mere guest in the Hall of Rebirth."

Zhong Li smiled without saying a word, then looked at Ke Li next to Abedo by the door.

At this moment, Zhong Li, who had not shown much emotion until now, had a somewhat subtle and strange expression, and he stood up.

As if to be even more certain of who Klee was, Zhongli approached Klee, looked at her face, and calmly asked, "Are you... Alice's daughter?"

Zhong Li's voice was very calm, but there seemed to be a hint of helplessness mixed in with the calmness.

"Hmm? Mr. Zhongli, do you also know Aunt Alice?" Abedo looked at Zhongli with some surprise, not expecting that the other party actually knew Alice.

Because now, Aunt Alice has nowhere to be found; she has been missing for some time now.

All that is certain is that the other person is still alive, but no one knows where she went.

"Huh? You know Mommy?" Keli hugged Zhongli's leg happily, looked up at him, and asked, "Do you know where Mommy went?"

Claire was very curious, not because she wanted to find her mother, but because she knew that she would eventually follow the same path as her parents.

Before they return, she needs to grow up obediently and protect Mondstadt together with the Knights of Favonius.

Of course, Klee would be very happy if she could find out where her mother was from Zhongli.

"........."

As Morax, Zhongli would tell Keli where the other woman's mother was, but as a guest of the Hall of Rebirth, he wouldn't know.

Therefore, Zhongli shook her head slightly, indicating that she did not know. Keli was also somewhat disappointed after seeing Zhongli shake her head.

Seeing this, Zhongli sighed softly, reached out and patted Klee's head, and said calmly, "When the great adventurer Iris came to Liyue, I was her companion."

"Her ideas, how should I put it, are very imaginative, but sometimes they are indeed quite dangerous."

Abedo was ashamed. Was Aunt Alice's idea merely "somewhat dangerous"? No! It was extremely dangerous!!!

You should know that some of Aunt Alice's thoughts and actions have terrified the Knights of Favonius. This is no small matter; it's a major event that could change the terrain and landscape.

"Oh! Is that so?!" Klee's eyes lit up as she looked at Zhongli, clearly captivated by his topic. She quickly asked, "Then what was Mom doing back then?!"

Claire was very curious about what her mother had done in the past.

Seeing Keli's eager expression, Zhongli smiled and recounted some amusing anecdotes from the past.

Despite his words, Zhongli still asked everyone to sit down, drink tea, eat pastries, and chat about what had happened back then.

Su Hao, Jiu Qiren, Abedo, and Keli all sat down and listened attentively to Zhong Li recount the story from back then.

Time passed by, and Claire's eyes sparkled with interest. She was clearly very interested in the story from back then, and she was even pleased with her mother's brilliant idea.

Abedo's lips twitched. Aunt Alice was really bold, daring to say these thoughts in front of the Rock God.

Did Aunt Alice realize that the other person was Morax at that time?

Aberdo was unaware of this, but he didn't intend to think about it too much.

After telling the story, Zhongli took a sip of tea. He was about to say something when the door to the Hall of Rebirth opened.

"Wow? So many guests today?"

Hu Tao returned with bags full of fresh vegetables. Looking at Zhong Li, Abedo, Su Hao, and Jiu Qiren, she smiled and said, "Looks like I'll have to show off my skills tonight."

"Tonight I'll cook you my specialty dish, 'The Great March of the Ghosts'!"

Upon hearing these words, Zhongli became restless and felt it was time for him to escape the Hall of Rebirth.

Hisagi Ren decisively said, "Let me do it, Master Hu. I'm quite confident in my skills."

"And these two are my friends, so I hope you can let me cook a meal for them myself."

Clearly, for the sake of Abedo and Klee's lives, Shinobu Hisaki offered to cook the meal himself.

Well, there's no way around it, Walnut's cooking skills are just too terrifying.

Although Zhongli said that the other party's cooking skills were indeed quite good, seeing is believing, at least Jiuqi Ren thought that the food made by Hu Tao was good.

Most of the dishes were terrible, so I'll cook for myself today.

"Eh~~~~"

Hu Tao's face fell, clearly unhappy.

"Oh, right." At this moment, Su Hao thought of something. He lifted Klee up and looked at Hu Tao, saying, "This little girl is from Mondstadt. She has never seen Liyue Harbor before."

"Could you please ask Master Hu to show her around Liyue Harbor? After all, she's a guest, isn't she?"

Klee looked at the walnut in front of her and blinked, unable to comprehend the situation.

But Klee could sense that everyone seemed afraid of this older sister, even though she seemed like a kind person to Klee.

"If it's Master Hu... then it's relatively safe." Zhongli said these words rather against his will, because with Hu Tao and Klee, who knows what Liyue Harbor would become.

But Zhongli still needed to talk to Abedo, and he really didn't want to go out for dinner tonight; he wanted to stay at the Hall of Rebirth and rest for a while.

Therefore, we can only let Hu Tao take Ke Li out to play for a while, hoping that this Master Hu will not break the law.

"Thank you for your trouble." Abedo could tell that Zhongli wanted to talk to him.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Abedo felt that with such a reliable Master Hu leading Klee around Liyue Harbor, nothing serious should happen.

Well, at least back in the Knights of Favonius, as long as an adult kept a close eye on Klee, she wouldn't cause any major problems.

Unless that adult is in cahoots with Klee, but so far, Abedo hasn't seen anyone who is in cahoots with Klee.

Oh, right, Aunt Alice doesn't count. She's Klee's mother, so it's normal for her to go along with it.

Okay~

Seeing how adorable Klee was, Kurumi handed the things she was holding to Shinobu Hisaki, who was standing next to her, and smiled, "Then I'll take this cute little one and go for a stroll around Liyue Harbor."

"Well, we'll be back in an hour. Oh, I forgot to introduce ourselves—two new friends."

At this moment, Hu Tao suddenly remembered something. She looked at Abedo and Cleo and said, "My name is Hu Tao. The 'Hu' in Hu Tao means 'to eat and drink to one's heart', but the 'Tao' in Hu Tao doesn't mean 'to be naughty'! Hehe!"

"Hahaha~" Klee laughed, clearly amused by Kurumi.

The others didn't react much to Walnut's self-introduction.

"oh?!"

That's why, Hu Tao looked at Klee with great surprise and laughed, "Okay! Hu Tao, your big sister, will take you to explore Liyue Harbor! Let's go!"

"Yay!!!" Klee happily followed Kurumi and left the Hall of Rebirth.

Su Hao glanced at Kuki Shinobu and asked, "Need any help?"

Jiuqi glanced at Abedo and Zhongli and said calmly, "No need. Besides, can you even cook? You should go have some tea over there."

With that, Hisagi Shinobu didn't give Su Hao a chance and took the large pile of vegetables to the kitchen.

And so, Su Hao shrugged and could only return to Zhong Li and Abedo's side.

Although the two were drinking tea, their expressions showed some worry. Abedo was worried about Klee, while Zhongli was worried about Kurumi and Klee.

"Never mind." In the end, Zhong Li stopped thinking about it, since Master Hu's ability to cause trouble was probably not too bad. He looked up at Abedo and asked, "What are your thoughts on concentrated resin?"

Now that Abedo had recognized him, Zhongli stopped hiding his identity and directly asked him what he thought of concentrated resin.

Within the group, Zhongli and Abedo developed a great interest in concentrated resin, as did Yae no Miko.

Unfortunately, Yae no Miko is clearly not up to par, even though she is indeed very strong in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, in Zhongli and Abedo's view, Yae no Kamiko's level was clearly not high enough.

"…………"

As for Su Hao, he sat there quietly watching Zhong Li and Abedo speak. He was also very curious, as both of them said that they were missing one material to create concentrated resin.

But what exactly is missing from this material? Abedo couldn't find it, and judging from Zhongli's appearance... he didn't seem to have found it either?

"What do you think?" Abedo glanced at Zhongli, pondered for a moment, and patiently said, "If we only consider the research, I find that most of the materials in concentrated resin are quite simple."

"You could even say they're everywhere, like the crystal core of a crystal butterfly, or the sweet flower that enhances sweetness, and the one responsible for the chocolate flavor..."

Abedo listed a lot of materials, then shook his head helplessly and said, "But I can't analyze the last one. If I were to force an analysis..."

"I'm afraid I'll have to eat this precious concentrated resin and use my own senses to analyze what the core material is."

Although it was a last resort, Aberdo had no other choice.

It's important to know that concentrated resin is very precious. Anyone who knows its value would not consume it, but would instead try to mass-produce it.

The problem is, apart from the chance of getting it through daily check-ins, there's no other way to obtain it.

"As for the core materials, a friend of mine has roughly analyzed them." Zhong Li lied through his teeth at this point.

Su Hao, standing to the side, feigned surprise as he looked at Zhong Li, as if to say, "You have such a friend?"

Aberdo remained expressionless as he looked at Mr. Zhongli, as if to say, "Is the friend you're talking about yourself?"

However, Abedo didn't expose anything, since the group leader was right next to him, and he couldn't complain. Instead, he asked, "What core material? If possible, maybe I can help you obtain it."

Even so, Abedo felt that if even the Rock God couldn't obtain something, what could he possibly do?

Su Hao looked at Zhong Li with some curiosity. In his understanding, concentrated resin was something synthesized using physical strength.

In a sense, stamina in a game is accumulated little by little over time.

But how do you get this thing in real life? And even if you do get it, how do you turn it into a dessert? That's another challenge.

"【Time】".
