After staring at Mei for a long time, Lei Movie sighed inexplicably.
Although she had already seen Mei in the Pure Land of One Heart, seeing Mei in person now made the feeling even stronger.
Mei does resemble her quite a bit, but she feels that Mei is more like the real person than she is.
Whether it's her gentle temperament or her cooking skills, she seems more like a real person.
Lei Dianying is quite aware that she can't cook. Not only has she been told off many times in the group chat, but travelers have also teased her about it quite a bit in the past.
"Um...can I just call you Ying?"
Mei didn't know how to explain the resemblance, so she hesitated for a moment and looked at Lei Movie to ask.
"Of course, this is a better term than 'country girl'."
Lei nodded slightly.
"......"
Mei didn't say anything, but her gaze swept over Kiana, Bronya and the others beside her. At this moment, the group tacitly turned their heads slightly away from Mei and Rai.
Back in the group chat, Mei was often teased for her stereotypical image of a nerdy, unsophisticated girl who loved watching movies. Although Mei didn't participate, she and a few others...
Of course, Kiana and her friends have also been the target of many criticisms. "Insects" is a synonym for "idiot," and "Please, another me!", "I can't do anything!", and "Wind, submit to me!" are some of the more popular lines used to startle players in Honkai Impact.
It's not just them; Mi Yu's "Brother, it's not working!", Paimon's "Hey!", Platinum's "Running away with a bucket", etc., are all relatively common emojis.
It's fair to say that most people in the group have been teased by the more lively and fun-loving members. After all, everyone is in a different world, so what else can they do but talk about it? They can't exactly go online and have a one-on-one fight.
Li Chaoge was aware of the farces that often occurred in the group, but he hadn't taken them seriously at the time, thinking they were just silly netizens playing a role-playing game.
It's normal for netizens to speak in a girly tone. Almost every large group has a few boys who like to send cute emojis and speak in a girly tone, so it's not surprising that they use names like "Dian Er" (a slang term for someone who is a bit silly or eccentric).
"I'm sorry, they meant no harm."
Mei looked at Lei Movie with a slightly apologetic expression. Although she hadn't joined in their nonsense and had even been teased by people in the group, this kind of thing was still not a good idea.
"It's alright, I was just saying, I'm not angry. Although it seems like I can't beat you guys if I get angry."
Lei Yingdian shook his head and smiled at Mei and the others.
Upon arriving in this world, their strength levels were all limited to a certain level. She is currently unable to use the Wuxiang technique to flatten a continuous mountain range with a single strike.
Raiden Mei, Kiana, Bronya, and Seele—all four of them possess formidable strength. Even in a one-on-one fight, she might not be able to guarantee a victory, let alone the fact that she's the only one on her side who's truly capable of fighting.
Ayaka from the Kamisato family is quite good in many ways, and she has mastered the Kamisato-ryu swordsmanship very well, but her strength is still not enough. As for Mona, she is more like a research scholar. Rather than having her fight, it would be better to let Mona think about how to make the salad taste better.
As for Ying... Ying is only on the Traveler Asaka's side, so it's unlikely she'll help in the fight.
"How about we have a friendly competition sometime? Just a contest of skills."
Lei Yingdian further stated that with their strength restricted, a full-force, head-on fight wouldn't reveal their true abilities, since none of them had reached their maximum potential.
However, skill level can clearly differentiate between those of equal skill.
"Well... let's talk about it another time."
Mei looked at Lei Yingdian, who suddenly wanted to spar with her, and felt somewhat helpless, wanting to politely decline.
This movie, which she had always been teased for being made by a homebody and a country bumpkin, was more talkative than she had imagined. Well, after all, she was a deity of a country, and she wouldn't lose her composure over a trivial matter.
The common saying that Lei Yingdong's country bumpkins are unsophisticated is just a joke about Lei Yingdong's wandering around the streets and alleys. How many people can look down on Lei Yingdong, who is considered a god?
"We'll stop here without hurting anyone's feelings, and I believe travelers will benefit greatly from our exchange."
Lei Yingdian really wanted to have a match with Mei, and he advised her against it.
In this place, she can't just pick a fight for no reason, but there aren't many people who can match her swordsmanship. Considering the strength involved, Mei, as a Herrscher, is more suitable. She doesn't have to worry too much about losing control when she's in the mood.
Li Chaoge, standing to the side, looked somewhat helpless. Although Ying was a homebody, she was also a martial arts fanatic. She hadn't been out for long before she was looking for someone to fight.
It seems that the Shadow in the game is really capable of killing people at the drop of a hat. I wonder if that fox, Yae no Miko, started plotting against her own god because she was killed by Shadow so many times.
Mei was also helpless. She really didn't want to fight. She would rather spend that time figuring out what to make for dinner.
However, seeing Ying's resolute attitude, she had no choice but to agree.
Fortunately, the movie only depicts the exchange of skills; if it were to actually fight, there would be far too much destruction.
Just then, rolling dark clouds appeared above them, and a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.
"It's raining, shall we go inside and talk again?"
Ayaka Kamisato raised her hand to cover her head and asked the others.
Although there is a pavilion here, it's quite crowded with so many people gathered here. It would be better to go back if you want to chat.
"Okay, let's go back. Shi, you haven't showered yet. Go take a shower and get some sleep."
Li Chaoge nodded, then looked at the Root Style that had given him a lap pillow earlier.
"Yes, Master."
Genyuan smiled slightly at Li Chaoge, responded, and followed behind the group, his gaze fixed on the distant, faintly audible lightning and thunder.
The wind and rain should be quite loud tonight, but even if we make a lot of noise, it shouldn't bother those two ordinary people.
Chapter 153. Early to bed, early to rise, good health
In the villa's living room, Lucia and Miyu, having finished showering and tidying up their rooms, sat on the sofas, watching TV, eating, chatting and laughing in a harmonious atmosphere.
At least that's how it appears on the surface.
Actually, some of them also walked to the villa entrance and saw Li Chaoge and Genyuan Shi in the pavilion outside, but they didn't follow them with Mei and the others.
There's no point in just following Li Chaoge around and staring at him; if you can't even exchange a few words with him, you might as well think about how to get along with the others.
They had all experienced such chaotic situations to some extent, after all, they wouldn't like someone who wasn't good enough, right? Apart from Mi Yumu and Bai McQueen, the others were all from worlds with extraordinary powers and had more or less shared life and death experiences with Li Chaoge.
Selena was an exception, as she and Li Chaoge, the commander of the Grey Ravens and chief of the Faos, met through letters. Many times, their attempts to meet were interrupted by unexpected events, and it was a long time before they finally met.
However, she had pulled herself back from the brink of death countless times by clinging to the thought of seeing her commander.
Selena, dressed in a black halter-neck mini-dress, sat upright on the sofa with her long, straight, fair legs pressed together. She sipped warm, cool tea, her gaze passing through the slowly rising steam as she watched Exusiai and the others laughing and joking. Finally, her gaze settled on Lucia, who looked somewhat dazed, standing beside her.
The current situation is indeed very special, so special that they have to form an alliance with their former rivals.
She was originally very confident. Even though Lucia had done a lot for the commander, even to the point of losing her memory due to a deviation in her consciousness, she was still able to do this for the commander.
It's not just about a relationship that transcends age... Facing so many outstanding and powerful opponents, going it alone is really too difficult.
Not everyone is as carefree as Heinrich Exusiai, nor is everyone as fun-loving as Nian Genyuan and the others. Many people have gone through brutal battles to get to where they are today. It's not that we demand that Li Chaoge only have her by his side. It's good enough that we can live a fun and joyful daily life together.
However, the proportion of each of them in this daily routine is not fixed.
"I'm back."
While Selena was thinking, Ayanami, who was playing a mobile game with Platinum, suddenly looked up at Li Chaoge, Mei Genji, and the others who walked in.
"What about the year?"
Li Chaoge walked in and looked around. He found that everyone was there, filling the living room to the brim, except for Nian and Xi.
"Nian and Xi are still in the bathroom. Belfast seems to have gone to turn off the water. They should come out in a little while."
Exusiai, wearing a loose T-shirt, sat on the sofa with her long, slender, snow-white legs crossed. When Li Chaoge asked about Nian, she casually replied while munching on a pear.
"They've been making a scene for so long? Is it really that outrageous?"
Li Chaoge was speechless. He thought the two of them would calm down soon after he left, but he didn't expect them to be so troublesome.
It seems they went easy on him; otherwise, given their stamina, they definitely wouldn't have let him off so easily.
"Has the boss been completely drained? Hehe, how about trying again with us tonight?"
Exusiai swallowed the sweet pear in her mouth and chuckled as she looked at Li Chaoge.
When she entered the bathroom, she could tell at a glance that Nian and Xi were definitely having an affair with the Doctor. Xi was very annoyed with Nian and would never shower with him for no reason.
She didn't know the specifics, but whether Nian held down Xi's hands on her own initiative or the Doctor made Nian hold down Xi's hands, the fact that the Doctor ate both Nian and Xi was definitely not changed.
"You're always thinking about these things, don't corrupt Mi Yu and the others."
Li Chaoge rolled his eyes at Exusiai, who had revealed his secret. This guy really dared to say that. With so many people here, didn't he care about his reputation at all?
He still wasn't used to verbally sparring with them. If it were just Exusiai alone, he would have her try it on the spot. However, with so many people around, he felt too embarrassed to tease Exusiai back.
"If we just drag everyone down with us, then everything will be fine."
Exusiai chuckled dismissively, saying that perhaps her personality wasn't quite right for it, and she was a bit lacking in the skills to fight for power, but when it came to taking advantage of chaos and operating in small groups, she wouldn't admit defeat.
If she can drag someone down with her, the person who went down with her will then drag the next person down with her.
After all, you can't be the only one ashamed, right? If everyone is ashamed, it's the same as not being ashamed at all. Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone.
If it weren't for the fact that taking photos to record embarrassing moments could easily provoke public outrage, she would have wanted to create a memento so that everyone would remember this shameful moment.
"Don't let my well-behaved Mi Yu lead me astray."
After giving Exusiai some more instructions, Li Chaoge said nothing more.
Everything that needed to be said had been said, and everyone present could hear it. To say anything more would be tantamount to directly interfering with their relationship.
He would try his best to stop them from taking physical action, but he didn't want to interfere too much in other aspects.
"Well......"
Mi Yu lowered her head and dared not speak, her pink cheeks flushed with embarrassment after the bath.
She felt like everyone was watching her, but she had no way to defend herself; she had indeed been dragged into this mess by Exusiai, Platinum, and the others.
Although this statement is not entirely accurate, she did care about the trainer who trained her so diligently and took such good care of her when she was feeling down or sad. Otherwise, she wouldn't have always called the trainer "brother".
[Rice bath...when did you become so daring?!]
McQueen turned to look at his friend Miyu, whose ears were drooping and who didn't dare to look up, and found it hard to believe.
She had been trying to anticipate the results of the rice bath arriving a few days early, but she still didn't expect it to be so surprising.
It's absolutely unbelievable! Mi Yu was with these people?!
Miyu has only been here a few days, how come she not only dares to attack the trainer, but also plays tricks with the others?
"Alright, I'm not going to argue with you guys anymore. Qingge's friends are sleeping. Everyone should go to bed early tonight. I'm going to get some rest too."
Li Chaoge looked at the shy Mi Yu, walked over and reached out to touch her little head, and smiled at Mei and Genyuanshi.
He originally wanted to chat with Qingge and Ying tonight, but Qingge was drunk by Ying, and he couldn't wake her up.
He should get some sleep; he hasn't gone to bed early and woken up early in a long time.
Going to bed early and waking up early is good for your health.
That's what Li Chaoge thought, and everyone said goodnight to him normally and went back to their rooms.
However, before he could turn off the light and lie down, his door was quietly opened, and two figures swiftly and silently slipped into the room.
Chapter 154. These clothes cannot be worn to see the Commander!!!
In a room of the villa, Selena and Lucia finished washing up and prepared to turn off the lights and go to sleep.
Actually, there are enough rooms now, and one room per person is more than enough. However, considering that many more people will come in the future, there will definitely not be enough rooms in the end. Rather than moving together later, it is better to get used to it now.
For this reason, Selena suggested continuing to share a room with Lucia, and Lucia had no objection, as it was just for sleeping. The rooms in the villa were quite large, with double beds, and both she and Selena slept in normal positions without disturbing each other.
"Lucia, can we talk later?"
Selena looked at Lucia, who was looking down at her phone by the window, and asked softly.
She knew Lucia wasn't playing on her phone; she was checking what dishes to cook for the commander tomorrow.
Fighting here isn't very useful, since this is a peaceful world without the Punishing Virus or Constructs. The smile on the Commander's face in this peaceful and tranquil world is the whole meaning of her fighting so far.
However, in order to stand out in front of the commander and show her uniqueness, she would have to work hard in other areas, especially since the commander has no memory of knowing her.
But it doesn't matter; all that has passed is but a prologue. Whether it's the present, the future, or the past, as long as there's a commander, she can overcome any difficulty.
"Selena, is there something important you want to tell me?"
Lucia put away her phone, glanced at the relentless downpour outside the window, drew the curtains, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at Selena, who had a smile on her face, with a puzzled expression.
She might be a little slow on the uptake in some ways, but she's definitely not stupid. How could she not see through Selena's obvious behavior?
She could have her own room, but she insists on living with her. Her relationship with Selena isn't that good yet. Although they might still have to live together in the future, given the Commander's current slower summoning speed, it will take a long time for the villa to be fully occupied.
“It’s nothing to trouble you, don’t worry.” Selena smiled and shook her head, then looked at Lucia, who was reaching out to untangle her long hair, and continued, “I just wanted to ask what you think about the current situation.”
"Now? I feel great."
