Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Log

[Paimon: Because everyone's fighting and so many people are dying every day, you think you can just go up there and sell your business?]
[Hu Tao: Hehe~ That's not wrong, but it's really hard to say whether our family's funeral hall business can be successfully sold. Actually, I'm interested in this story, especially to see what kind of changes Ah Jing can bring to it!]
[Alice: That's right! I'm also really looking forward to the changes that Jing will bring to "No Game No Life," but speaking of which, don't you guys think "Three Questions for the End of the World" is also very interesting? Ailu is so cute!]
Tsunade: She's cute, but wasn't she already killed in the beginning? But if I had to say, this story is indeed heartbreaking, and I don't know if you've noticed, but the backstory of "Three Questions for the End of the World" is actually very intriguing—
It is said that many years ago, the first star god and his earth god came to a planet in a starship. This planet was inhabited only by immortal beasts and sand.
The star god, longing for his homeland, instructed the earth god to use fragments of the star god's soul (cfag) to create humans. The method involved wrapping the fragments of the star god's soul around beasts, giving them the shape of humans. However, as the number of humans increased, the number of fragments of the star god's soul did not increase.
And what was the result? In order to perpetuate the existence of humanity, these beasts in human skin constantly spread rumors among their group about how dangerous the Star God was and that the Star God would surely destroy humanity.
But in fact, at that time, only the young Star God Ai Lu Ke remained in the entire Star God group, and he did nothing but sleep all day long!
500 years before the main story begins, Eluke was also killed in her sleep by a human hero who broke into her home. It was because of her soul fragments that the humans of that world were able to survive. But speaking of which, I really want to ask, do those humans even deserve to live?
*********
Emmm... This problem is obvious. The Star God made a sacrifice voluntarily, but Ai Lu Ke was forced to do so.
What kind of feeling does this give people? It makes them think that the humans in that world are nothing more than parasites sucking the blood of the star god!
However, Tsunade's point made Fryna and others on the Teyvat continent think of a lot. The humans in "The Three Questions of the End of the World" were created by the Star God. They are essentially beasts, but they have human shells on this basis. The Fontaine people are also incomplete humans created by the first water god using the primordial fetal seawater and pure water spirits.
So here's the question—what about the people of Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inatsuki?
You should know that the continent of Teyvat was originally inhabited by dragons, and humans were created by the primordial beings!
Are their forms of existence similar to those of humans in "Three Questions for the End of the World," possessing only a human shell while being something else in essence?
For example, if humans lose their inner nobility, they will degenerate into monsters like Hilichurls.
Gu Jing gave a very affirmative answer to this question: their essence is elemental power.
This form of existence is indeed different from the general theory of biological evolution, but the humans of Teyvat are definitely human.
Most importantly, regarding the question of what makes a person human, Gu Jing believes the key lies in the creature's thoughts, or more accurately, in two words: soul. Even if a Teyvat's body degenerates into a monster, like Calibel, their soul remains a perfectly human form!
However, some demonic beings, even if they possess human-like appearances, are not human, such as the Celestial Dragons and the man-eating demons in Demon Slayer!
[Liang Bing: Haha! Well said, handsome! What makes a person human is the nobility of their thoughts!]
[Angel Yan: So—this is your reason for choosing to fall?]
[Liang Bing: You don't know anything! I'm doing this for freedom! In short, it's my life, why should I live it according to Keisha's wishes?]
[Keisha: So here's the question, if that's the reason, you could have just run away from home, why did you have to stab me in the back?]
Seeing this, Liang Bing, whose lips were twitching, quickly figured out the answer. What else could it be? She must have been out of control when you locked her up!
While thinking this to herself, the proud Ms. Liang Bing wouldn't bow down and admit her mistake to Keisha. Instead, she bluntly replied: "I stabbed her, so what? Are you starting to settle old scores with me again?"
PS: The picture shows Fufu.
Chapter 459 Keisha: This bastard is really infuriating!
The scene of sisters Keisha and Liangbing arguing was something that everyone in the live stream had seen countless times and was no longer surprised by.
But this time, Gu, who happened to be free, didn't ignore it.
Recorded by the live broadcast, he kissed Robin goodbye and then crossed the barrier of time to arrive at a point in time 30,000 years ago.
Although the planet Melo was not as prosperous as it is today, the civilization of the angel race was not low. If one had to compare it, the civilization of the angel race was similar to the situation when Rome fell apart and various regions were divided into kingdoms and families.
Besides, although there were conflicts between the various lords, the first generation of lords were like allies with a common goal—to end the chaotic situation of the Angel Civilization and make the entire Angel Civilization a better place.
However, the territories of each lord are much larger, basically measured in planets. The stronger the military power, the more planets they can occupy.
For example, Hua Jue, who was able to become king, created the Heavenly Palace, which was the strongest force in the entire Angel Civilization.
The Hoffman family, to which Keisha and Liang Bing belong, is not a weak force within the Angel Civilization; in fact, it's considered quite powerful. However, compared to the Heavenly Palace, they are indeed somewhat lacking, and the scenes depicted in the story are extremely brutal.
The ambitious Hua Ye, like Emperor Yang of Sui, murdered his father to seize the throne and launched a surprise attack on the planet Merlo on the night before his ascension!
Apart from Liang Bing, who was not on Melo Star, who managed to escape by chance, Lord Hoffman and Keisha were captured. The old lord died of starvation in prison, and Keisha also suffered a lot of torture. In the end, she was able to escape with the help of He Xi and reunite with Liang Bing.
Since then, the female angels of the angelic civilization have united and, after 6000 years of effort, overthrown the Heavenly Palace order!
******
Gu Jing, who traveled through time, did not choose a time when he was a hero rescuing a damsel in distress, but rather a year before Hua Ye murdered his father and seized the throne.
On this sunny afternoon, he floated in the air, looking down at little Naisa who was honing her swordsmanship in her own garden. What was slightly noteworthy was the angel Ruoning, who at this time was still Keisha's personal guard.
Clang, clang, clang... The gleaming silver blades clashed fiercely in mid-air, and even with all her might, Ruoning was no match for Keisha.
As the longsword was knocked from her hand and Little Milka's blade was placed against her neck, their eyes met. The two, who had been serious and earnest, smiled. Ruoning even praised with a smile: "As expected of the most valiant warrior of the Hoffman family, if you were a man, who knows who would be the King of Angels!"
Keisha, having sheathed her sword, retorted with one hand on her hip, "So what if you're a woman? The most important thing is to have the right heart! And—whoever can float in the sky without wings, how long do you plan to peek?"
Clap, clap, clap... Gu, with a slight smile on his lips, descended from the sky and couldn't help but clap as he landed in front of Keisha. He also did something unexpected when he landed in front of her.
Three meters apart, under the watchful eyes of Keisha and Ruoning, Gu Jing grinned and raised his right hand to show the approximate height of Little Milka, then moved it towards his own body until it was level with her chest.
Although she hasn't said anything yet, when she met his gaze, Little Milksha, who felt dissed, instantly turned red!
He immediately drew his longsword and thrust it at him. Seeing this, Ruoning followed suit, ready to teach this bastard a lesson!
Gu, however, opened his shield with great interest. The dark golden rock element shield blocked Little Milksha's attack. He was not so polite to Ruoning after Keisha, and directly sent her flying far away.
********
After the impregnable fortress, she refused to accept the sick son-in-law, and one elemental shield after another perfectly blocked Little Milksha's attacks. No matter how she attacked, it had no effect. Instead, she was exhausted and getting angrier!
He Xi, Liang Bing, Hei Ta, and others watching the live stream were laughing so hard they were doubled over. But is this all they're going to do? This little milksha is just lame!
[Unable to bear it any longer, Keisha herself couldn't help but comment: Please, have mercy and stop your supernatural powers, @Gu Jing. Continuing like this is pointless, and... what are you trying to do by suddenly traveling to that era?]
[Gu Jing: It's impossible to put away the shield, you still want to cut me? As for what I want to do? Well, I have some free time now, so I wanted to sort out the timeline that hasn't been finalized yet. Besides, didn't He Xi say she wanted a sweet romance? Of course, I can't let her down.]
[He Xi: Hmm~ It's surprising you still remember this. You haven't done anything about it for so long; I thought you'd forgotten.]
·· ·····Requesting 0 flowers ······
[Liang Bing: I'll say it again, if you're really capable, don't just consider the three of us, the entire Angel Civilization is yours!]
Keisha: "..." The Queen was speechless.jpg
When it comes to sorting out the timeline, Keisha had almost forgotten about it. Now that she thinks about it, she can't deny that it was all about sweet romance, which was exactly what He Xi was looking forward to. Keisha's thoughts were more complicated.
She wanted to, but was also conflicted. It wasn't that she disliked Gu Jing, but rather that there wasn't much of a foundation of affection between them, and there were some things she couldn't bring herself to say.
Thinking about this, she looked at the live broadcast and watched her younger, more innocent self playing around with Gu Jing from a third-person perspective. She was touched, but that jerk was really infuriating!
... .... ...
[Gu Jing: Speaking of timelines, I can't help but say a few words here. When we are in the real world, we can mostly only feel the 'present' and even the 'past' is in our memories. But in fact, on the scale of time, the past, present and future of any thing actually exist simultaneously.]
In general, the 'past' is what is certain, the 'present' is what is happening, and the 'future' has many possibilities.
However, because of me, we are all experiencing the 'present' and moving towards the 'future,' but the 'past' has become something uncertain.
[Liang Bing: Sigh~ What's the big deal? If I had to say something, it's that our past wasn't pleasant, so I'm troubling you!]
Kiana: I feel the same way! You've really worked hard, Captain!
[Gu Jing: It's not hard work, it's all about serving the people!]
[He Xi: Haha, you! I'll be watching your performance on screen. If you do well, I'll reward you handsomely when you get back~]
Seeing Gu Jing's comments, Silver Wolf and others couldn't help but laugh and complain: "Serving the people, huh? While that's not wrong, what he really cares about is finding himself a wife!"
But how should I put it? As long as this guy enjoys it, that's fine. He did a good deed and gave everyone something to watch. What's wrong with that?
P.S.: I'm taking another day off tomorrow for a date, so I probably won't update until tonight.
The picture shows He Xiliu.
Chapter 460 Liang Bing: What the hell! You've already fallen for her @Keisha? Are you love-struck?!
"Put a little more force into it, little sister."
Didn't you eat today?
"Oh dear~ You can't even cut through such a thin shield? Is your swordsmanship just for show?"
Thirty thousand years ago, on a sunny afternoon on the planet Melo, in a tranquil garden, Little Milka, clad in silver armor and wielding a longsword, exuded a heroic and spirited aura. However, the expression on her face was tinged with anger due to Gu Jing's provocation.
However, even after exhausting all her moves, she was unable to harm the Jade Shield that Gu had placed on her body, and she actually calmed down.
This scoundrel of unknown origin, though deliberately provoking her, has not retaliated so far. His playful and composed demeanor is like that of an experienced hunter toying with his prey; continuing the attack will only lead her deeper into his rhythm!
Ding—After another fierce slash, Little Milka used the recoil to create distance and stabilize herself, catching her breath for a couple of moments.
Looking at Gu Jing again, she asked the question she most wanted to know: "Who exactly are you? And what are you doing on Merlo Star?"
Upon hearing this, Gu thought to himself, "Guess," but smiled and replied, "I don't want to tell you the answers to these two questions yet. The only thing I can tell you is that I don't have any ill intentions towards you. Of course, the only ill intentions I have are just to joke with you. To be specific, like what you just experienced, if I had to put it into words, it would be a kind of perverse sense of humor."
Recalling Xiao Nai Sha's earlier performance, Gu Jing, with a playful expression, tagged Keisha in the live stream: "After getting up close, I have to admit, even when you're angry, you're still stunningly beautiful."
Slightly taken aback, Keisha's lips unconsciously curved into a slight smile, and she immediately replied in the live stream: [It's not too late to realize this now, but I must remind you that your current assessment is of the past me, while the present me is even more beautiful!]
*******
However, compared to Keisha's increasingly cheerful mood, Little Milka, who was about 20 meters away from Gu Jing, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
The idea that he found amusement in teasing her was unpleasant to hear, and her tone grew colder: "This joke isn't funny, and if you're not willing to say anything, then I can only ask you to leave Melos immediately!"
"Haha, don't be angry. Maybe what happened just now gave you a bad feeling, but if I really wanted to do something to you, I would have done it already."
"As for what you want to know? Since it can't be explained in just a few words, I don't really want to explain it for now."
"Especially things like identity. I've always felt that if you're just a nodding acquaintance, there's no need to explain your identity, because others won't remember your name. So I usually only tell my true friends about my identity."
"What do you think?"
After a little thought, Little Milka agreed, saying that at least from this point of view, this guy wasn't a casual person.
But she couldn't help but nitpick: "How can she feel comfortable being friends with you if she doesn't even know you?"
Gu, who was being stared at, smiled and held up two fingers: "Two points. One is chemistry. If you can find each other pleasing to the eye, you've passed the first hurdle. The second point is fate. There's a saying that goes, 'Although the goals pursued are completely different, the orbits of the stars will eventually intersect.' Doesn't that sound romantic?"
"..."
