This heroine is so despicable

Bronya couldn't help but touch Xing's gun gently and found that although it was hot, it was not scalding.

"There are also rumors that when the Silver Mane Guards were fighting with the enemy beside Alisa Rand, they could always feel an irresistible force accompanying them. With the protection of this great power, people could actually block the enemy's blade with their bare hands, while they themselves were unharmed..."

When Xing heard this, he suddenly became thoughtful, then raised his spear and shook it:

"Sure as a rock!"

【The channel is out of tune! 】

Immediately, everyone around seemed to feel an inexplicable power appearing on their bodies - in other words, an extra layer of shield.

Although it is not as thick as March's single shield and Jie Ge's shield, it is still very hard.

Walter thought thoughtfully: "It is indeed the power of protection... I thought that star cores were all related to destruction, but now it seems that it is not that simple..."

He glanced at Bronya and Seele with a slightly strange look:

"But... let's focus on the things at hand. I have to go back to the train to deal with this star core with Ji Zi. I think you still have a lot of things to explore here."

Xing nodded and looked at Uncle Yang:

"The train should be able to depart now, but...can we stay here a little longer, Uncle Yang?"

Uncle Yang nodded:

"Of course, our pioneering journey may come to an end one day, but until then, there is no need to rush."

Uncle Yang suddenly noticed that Xing had a strange expression on his face after he finished talking about this guy.

"what happened?"

Xing scratched his head:

"I always feel... that this sentence is very familiar?"

[Even the voice that said this sounds familiar]

----------------

They returned to Beloberg, and just when they were halfway there, they ran into Jeppard, Shiluwa, Clara and others, as well as a large group of Silver Mane Guards.

Looking at the people returning victoriously, cheers suddenly resounded through the sky.

The Silver Mane Guards were not very clear about what role the Nameless Guests played, but they knew that Bronya led the people there, and then the oversized robot fell down not long after, and the tide-like world-ripping monsters also dissipated in an instant, so almost everyone shouted Bronya's name and surrounded everyone all the way back to the city.

Xier also ran to Nata and Uncle Oleg to report that she was safe. Xing took the opportunity to pick up Clara and rubbed her hard. Swarovski on the side rarely reacted.

"Big...Big sister? Is everything over?"

"Of course! Clara and everyone else can come to the surface freely from now on! With Bronya here, the blockade of the upper and lower levels will be lifted soon!"

March looked at the stubborn Swarovski:

"In this way, Mr. Swarlow won't have to... uh, for the time being... worry about the preservation of the lower areas, right?"

Swarlow's red glasses flashed:

"Calculation results… updated. Mission number 0001, 'Secure the Lower Zone' - completed. Mission closed - Mission update: Protect Clara."

[Tsk, you damn lolita robot! What, you’re also a lolita robot? That’s fine.]

"Clara, do you have any wishes?" Xing asked, looking at Clara in his arms.

Clara thought about it and showed a cute expression like a little animal:

"My elder sister said that you are travelers from other planets, right? Clara also wants to be like you - one day... Clara also wants to travel farther and make more friends!"

[Okay! Then take the opportunity to lure her onto the train! There will be endless ice cream to eat every day! ]

Ignoring the narrator's usual madness, Xing hugged Clara and sniffed hard:

"Don't worry, Clara's wish will come true!"

--------------

Although the planet's core crisis had been resolved and the nameless guests could relax, Bronya couldn't catch a breath for even a moment.

Cocolia was bedridden and had barely regained consciousness, but she still needed a long period of recuperation. The job of the Great Guardian was undoubtedly handed over to her in advance.

[In a sense, this "cleansing of the emperor's side" was indeed successful]

After the battle, the work of resettling the wounded, repairing the defense line and restoring logistics is urgent - the star core is gone, but there is a reason why this thing is called the cancer of all worlds - the existing rifts still exist, and monsters will still be refreshed from time to time, and the Silver Mane Iron Guards still need to be on high alert.

[We have to leave some wild monsters, right? ]

After this battle, the opening of the lower area needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible, but it is obvious that the passage cannot be opened directly all at once, which will only cause unnecessary contradictions and conflicts. How to resolve the gap between the upper and lower classes of people will probably take a lot of Bronya's energy in the future.

[Too easy! Go teach Bronya a trick - hold a grand wedding with Seele, who represents the lower class, and vigorously promote the idea that the Great Guardian should lead by example and that the upper and lower classes should be one family! There is no more effective method than this! ]

Xier went back to the lower area first with Nata, Oleg and others. The shock to the lower area just now might be more obvious than that to the upper city. In addition to maintaining order and appeasing everyone, they also had to bring the news of victory to everyone.

Bronya also did not forget the unknown guests who saved Beloberg. Despite her busy schedule, she expressed her gratitude to everyone on behalf of Beloberg, and then arranged for them to stay at the Goethe Hotel in the upper town.

[After going around in circles, it feels like you’ve finally returned to where you started—you have a feeling that you guys will eventually move in here.]

After working hard all day, Xing was indeed a little tired. He simply washed up and snuggled into the comfortable bed.

So many things happened on this day: the counterattack of the star core, the creation engine, the illusory universe, the gaze of the Amber King, and another self...

The scenes related to that decisive battle kept flashing back and interweaving, eventually piecing together into a blurry and unreal memory film.

And in this trance, it seemed that a strange voice whispered in Xing's ear...but the voice was fleeting. Xing tried to go back to the previous frame of memory, but found that the film in his hand had been cut, and the cut was clean and neat, leaving no trace.

Then, she heard a familiar voice again...

"At the end of the journey, all the puzzles that have troubled you will be solved..."

[It's Kafka's mother's voice... Maybe you will meet at the next stop? ]

That would be great!

Xing's uneasiness slowly disappeared, and sleepiness instantly swept over her.

Volume 2: Under the Sun of Yu Tongheng: Soliciting opinions, by the way, Happy New Year

What will be the follow-up to deal with Beloberg's branch quest?

(For example, further matchmaking Yaya and Xi'er and try to join them, petting Hook and Clara, and reading the literature of Shiluwa and Cocolia's predecessors.)

Or should I ask Xian Dianyi to meet Mr. Zhong first, and then use Osel to try out the newly acquired Flame Spear?

Or... simultaneously? Although going back and forth would make the plot more complicated?

Of course, I also wish you all a happy new year in 2024~

Volume 068: Under the Sun of Tongying: The Reunion of Xing and Ying

In a daze, I seemed to hear the clear sound of birds singing outside the window.

But...are there really still birds in the freezing cold Beloberg?

Realizing this, Xing suddenly discovered that the touch of the bed beneath him seemed to be different.

Xing suddenly opened his eyes and looked around, and found that he was no longer in the room of the Goethe Hotel, but had returned to the guest room of the Mond Knights' headquarters.

Come again! ?

【SurpriseMotherFucker~】

So... after I had a good sleep, I returned to Teyvat?

Is her save point the bed? Also, how long has Teyvat been in the past?

Xing rolled over and got up, pushed the door open and went out to find Lisa or Captain Jean, but ended up bumping into a gray-haired girl dressed as a knight.

"You... are you?"

The girl looked at Xing who rushed out of the guest room in surprise, and reacted after a few seconds.

"Excuse me, are you the traveler's friend star?"

What a cute girl! Even her hair color is similar to mine! Suki!

Xing immediately stepped forward, gently lifted the girl's chin, and carefully admired the girl's emerald green pupils from a close distance:

"You seem to know me? Miss Knight, may I have the honor of knowing your name?"

"Ride, ride, ride, Miss Knight!?"

The other party instantly became shy.

"I... I am just a maid of the Knights of Favonius, and I am far from being a knight..."

Maid?

Xing glanced at the girl's outfit, which indeed looked like a combination of knight armor and maid outfit.

[It actually satisfies both female knight and maid XP at the same time! What a clever design! 】

"I came here to see Captain Jean, but... I've changed my mind now. To be honest, although I've visited Mondstadt several times, I've never had the chance to properly explore this beautiful city... If Miss Maid is free, I wonder if you could accept my invitation and take me on a tour?"

"for this I……"

"star!?"

Lisa, who vaguely heard the noise, walked out from the library nearby and immediately saw the two people talking.

She hurried over, slapped Xing's dishonest little hand away, and looked at the lovely maid knight gently:

"Noelle, thank you for your hard work. I will take care of this guest. Go and do your own thing first."

"Oh? Well...thank you so much, Sister Lisa! Miss Xing, if you want to visit Mondstadt, you can come find me anytime!"

After sending Noelle away, Lisa looked at Xing unhappily:

"Noelle is a good girl, and she never knows how to refuse other people's requests. Please don't bully her."

Facing an old acquaintance who knew her all, Xing immediately hugged Sister Lisa's arm and gently stroked her palm with his fingers:

"In Sister Lisa's eyes, am I the kind of girl who likes to bully others?"

Lisa looked around and confirmed that no one could hear their conversation. She immediately pinched Xing's nose:

"Isn't it? You dare to bully me. I'm afraid that the Fatui's executive officer is coming. Are you not afraid?"

"..."

Lisa looked at Xing, who suddenly became silent and had a stiff expression.

"Wait... I heard you had a fight with the lady, you didn't... actually do anything to her did you?"

“…Ahahaha, how is that possible!?”

Xing immediately gave a dry laugh.

"That... that's the Fatui's executive officer! I was almost frozen into an ice sculpture by her, how could I possibly hurt her!? Sister Lisa, you overestimate me too much, don't you?"

Lisa still had some doubt in her eyes, but since she didn't know Xing's specific combat power, she also felt that... it shouldn't be that serious... right?

"Okay, let's get back to business. Where did you go after you disappeared for almost a week without saying goodbye? Did you go back to your hometown?"

"Hey, I've been away from Teyvat for... a week already?"

"You do not know?"

"..."

Xing was a little surprised. It seemed that the speed of time flowing in the two worlds did not have a unified fixed comparison value and was even quite random.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. As long as you're back safely, Eula missed you very much... But if I were you, I would go to the Deer Hunter right away - Ying, the one you missed so much, just returned to Mondstadt not long ago."

what! ?

Xing immediately hugged Sister Lisa and rubbed her hard: "Thank you Sister Lisa! I will come to see you later~"

With that, Xing rushed out of the Knights and headed straight for the Deerslayer.

Lisa looked at Xing who left in a hurry, and sighed with a bit of amusement and a bit of disappointment:

"Ah...it seems that young girls are more attractive after all..."

------------

Not to mention Lisa, who completely misjudged the traveler's age.

Xing now ran all the way to the fountain square in Mond, and saw Yingmei and her emergency food Paimon having dinner at the Deer Hunter Restaurant.

"Yingmei~"
