In Genshin Impact, why are all the characters I play NPCs?

Because above the number nine is the realm of God.

The only possibility that could so easily break through his defenses is that the guy in front of him is at least a demigod.

What a joke.

Kong's lips twitched. He had just gone out to check on the mission progress, and he ended up running into a demigod or higher. When did gods become so worthless?

As he was thinking, Kong frowned, increasingly feeling that he had seen the other person somewhere before.

Wendy wasn't here to reminisce. He glanced at the four or five mouthfuls of liquid left in the bottle, swallowed hard, carefully put the thing away, and then casually said, "Actually, it wouldn't matter if I had used a little more force in that move. Anyway, I've seen all your crimes. If I don't arrest you, I'll be the one who gets punished."

The members of the Abyss Order looked grave. From their words, it was clear that they had been exposed and had no choice but to fight to the death to avoid implicating the Order.

Just as they were about to make a move, Kong suddenly stretched out his arm, stopping everyone with a cold look in his eyes.

"Your Majesty the Wind God, are you truly not afraid of the abyss's retribution at all?"

Wind God... Your Majesty?

Several Abyss cultists found the name unbelievable.

That's one of the Seven Rulers of the Mortal Realm, how could he possibly end up in such a godforsaken place?

Ironically, they were just thinking about how to take each other down with them.

Ignoring the expressions of the henchmen, Wendy tilted her head and laughed, "I didn't expect you to recognize me."

Empty-tongued and devoid of any emotion, Kong said, "Of course, I was also present during the battle that destroyed Kanria, so I naturally had the opportunity to witness your battle."

Upon hearing this, Wendy looked at the other person's face and suddenly realized what was going on.

"It turns out it's you..."

Wendy, or rather Barbatos, lightly touched the ground with her toes and hovered in mid-air, her eyes now displaying a touch of divine majesty.

"What happened back then is nobody else's fault but theirs. Kanria brought about its own destruction. If your research hadn't touched the abyss and the origin of the world, we wouldn't have been able to take action."

Kong sneered, "They're really pushing all the problems onto those who can't speak..."

At this point, the boy straightened up, his eyes blazing as he looked at the god high in the sky, pointing at him without the slightest fear, just as he had done hundreds of years ago.

"What distinguishes humans from animals is their curiosity. If it weren't for Kanria's research, the Abyss would still be raging, and you would have no choice but to fill the void with human lives. What? Do you think the high and mighty gods would be willing to sacrifice their own consciousness to quell the evil?"

Barbatos looked down at the other person with a hint of pity: "So this is how you see the truth of what happened back then. Well, it's better to know less."

After speaking, the wind god raised his arm and gathered the wind elements that were floating in the air together.

No, it's more accurate to say that the wind elements surged in one after another.

They felt honored to be able to help the wind god.

Perhaps it's because Wendy often gets the short end of the stick that others forget about her.

They forgot that He was a genuine god, a survivor who made it to the end in the brutal war between demons and gods, and the master of all the winds in the world.

"Let me end this conflict..."

Looking at the gathering power, Kong just sneered and took out a black stone from his pocket that looked like it was about to drip ink.

"Come, wind god, let me see your power if you want all of Mondstadt to be buried with me."

Looking at the stone, Barbatos frowned, his expression turning grim.

"You've actually researched it to this extent?"

With His discerning eye, He could naturally tell at a glance that this thing was created by mixing together the purest evil energy.

Given its size, it's estimated that all life within a ten-mile radius of the explosion will be contaminated. Once these creatures move outwards, even more people will inevitably suffer secondary contamination.

Saying that the entire Mondstadt should be buried with him might be an exaggeration, but it's certainly possible to say that nearly half of Mondstadt's residents should suffer for the rest of their lives due to pollution.

With this in mind, Barbatos remained silent for a moment and withdrew his power.

Looking at the other person with a strange expression, he said, "Let's make this clear first, I didn't do anything to you. If you encounter anything else later, don't blame me."

He was referring to Xu Guang.

Compared to that guy, what is the Abyss?

Will the abyss make you spread your legs and then use a set of techniques that you can almost do with your eyes closed to make your eyes roll back, panting and sticking out your tongue?

Of course not.

So, for the sake of her own physical and mental health, Wendy decisively stepped forward, not because she was particularly dedicated to her work.

Since things have escalated to this point, it's beyond His ability to resolve. In other words, this matter is beyond His capacity, and more money is needed.

Kong didn't understand the meaning behind the words, taking it as a threat. So, after a cold laugh, he led the few Abyss Cultists who were still able to move away and left without looking back.

As for those that can't be moved?

I'm sorry, we can only leave it to fate.

Chapter 137: Can you bring back some good news?

"How indifferent! It wasn't like this hundreds of years ago."

Wendy remarked with a sigh.

The sky at that time was a bit gloomy, but not that extreme.

He ignored the few dying Abyss Cultists lying on the ground.

He is God, not the Holy Mother, so there's no need for him to care about these guys.

Let it fend for itself.

After carefully reflecting on the past, Canria realized that she had only herself to blame.

When a civilization progresses to a certain level, it will inevitably come into contact with more secrets. Kyria, despite having cleaner energy sources, insisted on researching the power of the Abyss.

It's like you could use wind power or water power, but you still insist on researching to see if there's anything useful in **.

Who will die if you don’t die?

He shook his head, took out the bottle, and took another small sip; he dared not drink too much.

I don't know how long I'll have to stay here, and I dare not leave my post. Every sip I drink is one less sip I have left.

Decided.

Wendy slapped her forehead.

From then on, he always carried three to five bottles with him when he went out, just in case.

Just as he was chuckling to himself, a sudden gust of cold wind blew by, causing the drunkard to sneeze several times.

With His constitution, He naturally wouldn't be afraid of these things, but now He is not the Wind God, but just an ordinary persecuted person.

If you're going to act, you have to go all the way. If you're not fully immersed in the role yourself, how can you expect others to believe it?

It's just...

Wendy touched the bottle, looking in the direction Kong had left, her expression not very good.

What's the saying?

Killing all those connected to the Abyss would surely result in injustices, but killing one and letting another go would inevitably leave some behind.

These lunatics are capable of anything.

With a sigh, Wendy decided it would be better to remind Jean.

Originally, since His divine heart had been taken away, He could have simply given up.

But with that guy above him, he doesn't dare to really idle off.

They'll behave themselves when they get caught.

……

In Mondstadt, in the Grand Master's office, Jean covered her head and sighed heavily.

She was just discussing the details of relocating the residents outside the city with Kaiya when, after taking a sip of water, the monsters outside began their attack.

According to the scouts, there are over a thousand ordinary Hilichurls, dozens of Hilichurl Shamans, and Grand Hilichurls who have come this time.

With this amount of strength, it's certainly not enough to attack a city, but those villages without strong city walls to protect them will definitely not escape this calamity.

We need to prepare to gather manpower and go out of the city for a battle; otherwise, there will be hundreds or thousands of casualties.

She had never considered this outcome from the beginning.

Thinking of this, Qin got up.

She is a knight, and her job is to protect everyone.

Just as I was about to put on my armor, an elemental carrier pigeon flew over and tapped on the window.

Qin Xin was overjoyed. She knew this; it was a messenger from the Wind God. Could it be that there was some good news?

I opened the window and looked at the letters; what I saw there made my head spin.

"What do you mean by saying that members of the Abyss Order might appear? Can't you do something about this?!"

The situation was already dire enough, but to make matters worse, the Abyss Order's arrival at this critical moment couldn't possibly be to help them repel the monsters.

Exhaling a breath of stale air, Qin put the letter away. This thing couldn't be seen by others, otherwise the morale of the army would be unstable, and all sorts of problems would arise.

"If only Mr. Xu Guang could give me a massage right now..."

With a wry smile, Qin walked out of the office.

Noelle, who was standing outside the door, hurried over, blinking her bright, watery eyes: "Captain, is there a problem? Can I help you?"

Seeing the worry in the other person's eyes, devoid of any negative emotion, Qin felt a little relieved. She raised her hand and ruffled the other person's hair: "It's okay, you're just a trainee knight, you haven't passed the test yet, these things have nothing to do with you..."

Noelle naturally didn't believe it. She was naive, not stupid. Mr. Kaia's solemn expression when he went in already said something.

Just as she was about to say something, Qin interrupted her: "When I get back, I'll help you complete the knight's exam, and then you won't need to do these chores anymore, how about it?"

Noelle bit her lower lip and nodded with difficulty.

She had always known that the reason the Knights had kept her as a trainee knight and delayed her promotion was to protect her.

Every month, the bodies of knights who died from monster attacks are brought back, and she can hear the cries coming from the families who have lost sons, husbands, and fathers.

We cannot turn a blind eye to this.

Noelle mustered her courage and looked at the captain with a determined gaze.

"I can help, I can fight!"

Qin smiled and said, "Of course I know you can fight, but you're too young."

How could she possibly do something like sending a child who just turned fifteen to the battlefield?

Noelle was very disappointed, lowered her head, and clenched the hem of her dress with both hands.

She has a people-pleasing personality and will generally agree to reasonable requests. She rarely expresses what she wants, which makes her somewhat timid.

Speaking up this time had already exhausted most of her courage.

But she was unwilling to give up.

Just as she was about to speak, a large hand covered her head, and the warm touch made her unconsciously feel immersed in it.

"Leave the child to me. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Qin's expression shifted slightly as she looked at the man in front of her.

"Mr. Xu Guang, what brings you here? What's wrong with you now...?"

She wanted to remind him that Mondstadt wasn't very safe these days, but seeing his confident expression, she swallowed her words.

It seems she doesn't need to worry about such a person.

However, after glancing behind Xu Guang and not seeing Yura, Qin asked curiously, "Didn't Miss Yura come back with you?"

Xu Guang nodded: "She's watching the tug-of-war and won't be back for a while, but don't worry, I've found a group of enthusiastic people to take her place."
