This heroine is so despicable

"Is it that alchemist? But didn't he return to Mondstadt a long time ago? We just ran into him..."

Eula shook her head. "How is that possible? This is the only way back to Mondstadt. I didn't see him coming down."

But looking at the stunned Ying, Eula realized that she was no longer joking:

"When did you see him?"

"Just now, could it be... someone pretending to be him?"

[It's impossible that Mr. Albedo has also learned how to use ley lines and teleportation anchors, right? ]

"Wait, in that case, why don't we just go and look for it directly?" Paimon suggested.

So the three of them immediately rushed to the snowy mountains - Eula roughly knew where the other party's laboratory and whereabouts were.

After a while, the three of them arrived at a natural cave that was sheltered from the wind, and then they saw Albedo, whom they had just met in Mondstadt not long ago. The latter was drawing a sketch that seemed to be a landscape of a snowy mountain. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and looked at them.

"Huh? Really...really here?" Paimon widened his eyes.

And Albedo greeted them curiously:

"Nice to meet you again, Traveler, Paimon, Miss Eula... But it seems you brought new friends with you this time?"

"This is Xing... Oh no! There are more important things to do now!"

Paimon waved his little arms.

"If you are here, then who is the Albedo who appeared in Mondstadt!?"

Albedo immediately touched his chin:

"Although I'm still not very clear about the specific situation, but from what Paimon said... there is someone who looks exactly like me appearing in Mondstadt?"

"Yes! And...he really looks like you!"

Paimon nodded:

"No one noticed anything. You... really don't have any blood-related brothers or anything like that?"

Albedo's expression finally became a little more serious:

"It seems... this is not an isolated incident. Not long ago, I discovered that someone had sneaked into my camp while I was away, and some of my alchemy notes were missing. Normally, even a treasure-stealing group would not take alchemy notes that they could not understand at all."

Xing Ze actually became interested now - he felt that the story was starting to develop in an interesting direction.

"We should report this matter to Captain Qin immediately." said Eula.

She knew that Albedo was the chief alchemist that the Knights valued very much, and seemed to be trusted by Captain Jean, and had a say in many matters. Such an identity was stolen by someone who didn't know why...

It would be terrible if the other party wanted to commit some criminal activity against Mond.

Therefore, she quickly entrusted the two people who could teleport to return to Mond first, report the matter to Jean, and find the impostor immediately.

"As for me, I will stay in the camp with Mr. Albedo for the time being. If you have any news, you can come and tell us at any time." Eula said.

Realizing that the situation seemed to be somewhat serious, Ying naturally hurriedly pulled Xing back to the anchor point and teleported directly back to Mond City.

As soon as she landed, she heard two members of the Fatui talking about something that happened in Liyue Harbor, the ceremony of inviting the immortals, and the death of Lord Yan...

"The version is too behind! Zero points!"

Xing took out her flaming spear in annoyance and drove the two away - she seriously suspected that these two people were set up in Mondstadt by the Fatui after they knew that she and Ying could teleport with the help of the earth veins. They were even able to squat next to the anchor point openly.

"Next time I teleport over and find you two here, I'll let one of you taste my flaming spear!"

Without paying any more attention to the two, Xing followed Ying to the headquarters of the Knights Templar, found Captain Qin and reported the matter to her.

After hearing this, the latter immediately called the knights and asked them to search for Albedo.

Then, several of the gatekeepers were surprised:

"But... isn't Mr. Albedo... in the library?"

"What!?"

The group immediately rushed to the library - because not many people would come to the library for entertainment during the holidays, so Lisa was not there today. When they pushed the door open, they saw another Albedo who was looking up information.

The latter was slightly stunned, his eyes seemed a little confused:

"Captain Qin? And the Traveler, what's wrong? Did anything happen?"

"Uh……"

The crowd, who were originally thinking "hurry up and catch that audacious impostor", suddenly realized that the situation seemed to be more serious than they had imagined - because even Xing, who had no impression of Albedo, felt that he was exactly the same as the one they met on the snowy mountain not long ago...

Exactly the same...

Whether it's their looks, clothes, or even temperament, they're all similar...

So the question is - which one is the fake one?

[Oh no, is this episode called True and False Albedo? ]

Wait... so, Eula and the other Albedo stayed where they were, probably with the intention of monitoring him?

As expected of an experienced Wave Knight, Xing did not think of this at the time and subconsciously believed that the other party was the real thing, but Eula considered the possibility that the other party was a fake.

At the same time, Captain Qin and the others were obviously undecided. They exchanged glances with each other, and the only tacit understanding was that none of them let go of their weapons.

Finally, Captain Qin coughed:

"Albedo... or, Mr. Fake, I will continue to call you Albedo for now. Do you... know your current situation?"

Albedo looked at the people who were obviously wary of him, and after a moment of hesitation, he stood up and said seriously:

"Excuse me... is there another me?"

[Oh no, now they look even more alike, which one is Albedo and which one is Abe? ]

But Xing felt that the guy in front of him must be a fake - in addition to his intuition, it was also because Miss Sucrose said that the Albedo in Mondstadt seemed a little different from usual.

Women's intuition is generally more accurate.

But... this "evidence" is obviously completely unsupportable.

But... you can try to trick him. Since he is a fake, there will definitely be flaws.

"Explain?" Xing asked.

"Of course...but..."

Albedo glanced at a few ordinary knights, and Jean seemed to know that this matter involved some information that was not suitable for public disclosure...

So she signaled the rest of the Knights of Favonius to leave first.

After they all left, Albedo nodded:

"Captain Qin, Ms. Alice should have told you something about me, right? If my guess is correct... maybe my 'mother', the other 'me' created by the great alchemist Reindort, has awakened... and it seems that he has appeared in Mondstadt?"

Volume 153: The End of the Immortal Body, the World and the Human World: Son of the Chalk

Faced with the calm and composed "Albedo", everyone except Xing was a little undecided.

Xing was not that surprised by the appearance of this "real and fake Albedo" situation. She simply waved her hand:

"No matter whether he is real or fake, we will control him first. As for distinguishing... we just need to ask Sucrose and other people who have had contact with Albedo to question him. If their memories of this period match his confession, we will know whether he is a fake or not!"

"This...makes sense!"

Looking at the people who were about to take action, "Albedo" sighed:

"It's really troublesome. As expected, it's not that easy to hide defective products from the public..."

Captain Qin was slightly stunned, then raised his sword:

"Now that you have admitted it, please surrender, Mr. Imposter."

But the other party obviously did not intend to be arrested like this. He slowly stepped back, then suddenly stretched out his hand and slammed something on the ground. In an instant, the entire library was illuminated by a strong light, and then a choking smoke rose with Albedo as the center.

[Oh no, Lisa is going to be angry now]

Because once his flaming spear charged, it would surely set the library on fire, Xing did not rush to attack, but instead put shields on everyone around him again as usual just in case.

But there was no subsequent attack from the smoke. When Yingmei and Captain Qin used the wind element to blow away the smoke, they found that the other party rushed out of a window and slipped away.

Xing glanced out the window and found that the other party had disappeared. He could only look at Captain Qin and Ying helplessly:

"So...what he said just now about his mother and his other self, were those words also meant to deceive people?"

Ying also looked at Captain Qin in a strange way, but the latter frowned slightly:

"That... I'm not very clear. Albedo joined the Knights of Favonius as the chief alchemist under the introduction of Klee's mother, Ms. Alice... Ms. Alice only said at the time that Albedo was the child of a friend of hers... And the name of the alchemist Reindort is the first time I've heard of it."

The stars on the side are a little confusing. Who is Klee, who is her mother, and who is Reindort, the creator of Albedo?

Captain Qin was still thinking:

"As for the 'creation' he mentioned just now... I'm... not sure what those words mean, and I can't tell whether they are true or false..."

Paimon was also full of doubts:

"Perhaps the impostor meant that he is actually Albedo's brother? But...it doesn't seem right."

Xing was almost speechless:

"What's so hard to understand about this? It just means that guy is a 'clone', and Albedo is probably a man-made man."

"Human...artificial human!?"

Ah, Xing almost forgot, this is not the Universe and Galaxy with all kinds of bizarre settings. The setting of artificial humans is probably still very new in Teyvat.

"If it's... um... in this world, it would probably be some kind of alchemy or something like that, right?"

Several people looked at each other, and Captain Qin seemed a little surprised:

"I... have heard that alchemists can create some simple elemental life, but... a living person? Such a thing... I have never heard of it..."

Xing shrugged:

"Calm down. There are even demons in this world. And from the look on his face, he probably wants to replace Albedo, right? That's really unoriginal. If I knew there was another me, I wouldn't be so bored fighting over it. I might even be very interested in her."

[Are you talking about the interest of becoming like-minded friends together? ]

"..."

[…Wait, you mean the kind of interest that allows you to become friends, right? ]

"..."

Compared to Xing and Ying who were relatively calm about this setting, Captain Qin was naturally a little overwhelmed:

"Then...we should now..."

"Let's go to the snowy mountains first to inform the real Albedo of his current situation. As for the impostor, since his goal seems to be to replace Albedo, we won't do much damage to his existing interpersonal relationships. Let the Knights of Favonius keep an eye out and report immediately if they see him."

Captain Qin quickly went to give the orders, and Xing and Ying returned to the anchor point, teleported to the snowy mountains, and told Albedo about the situation.

The latter nodded after listening:

"I see... It seems that he contacted Sucrose and the others just to prepare for interpersonal communication on my behalf. I just didn't expect to run into you. And you have the ability to use the ley lines to travel back and forth quickly, so you suddenly discovered that there are two of me."

Star shrugged:

"Won't you explain? What did he say about your creator?"

Albedo looked at her:

"I didn't intend to hide anything, but there are some things that I have been subconsciously avoiding... Well, I will take this opportunity to introduce myself to new and old friends."

"I, Albedo, am not a natural person, but an artificial person. I was created by my mother and teacher, the Kanreya scholar, 'Gold' Rhinedot."

Eula, who was standing by, immediately had the same reaction as Captain Qin:

"Man... creates man?! How... how can man be created? I mean... except, uh..."

[Look at this Eula, she doesn’t understand at all]

Albedo said calmly:

"The fusion of supreme alchemy and supreme knowledge... the ultimate result is the unnatural creation of 'man'..."

[Alchemy, isn't it wonderful? ]

But Ying cares about another point more than others:

"You just said... your mother is a Kanreya scholar, but... Kanreya has already..."

Albedo nodded:
