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

If she had known, she shouldn't have come in the first place. That way, she wouldn't have thought about getting revenge, and she wouldn't have to worry about being filled up by that guy next time she runs into him.

However, she always felt that, given the other person's personality, they would meet sooner or later.

The two fell silent, and then there was a knock on the door.

dong dong dong.

"Father, I'm back."

Hearing the emotionless voice, the servant quickly recognized who it was.

She looked at herself and felt a headache coming on.

He sighed and said, "Okay, wait a moment."

Then she picked up the clothes that were thrown on the sofa and put them on.

It's a good thing she wasn't wearing any clothes, otherwise she would be completely soaked and it would be difficult for her to show her face in public now.

After a while, the servant cleaned up the mess and coughed.

"come in."

Lynette walked in, carrying a gift box.

"Father, your birthday is coming soon. Happy birthday!"

The servant nodded. She was now the manager of this orphanage, but because of her adoptive mother, she hated the title of "mother."

So all the children called her father.

However, if it weren't for the other person, she would have almost forgotten that today is her birthday.

But there's a problem.

The servant asked, "Where is your brother?"

Lynette said expressionlessly, "When my brother went shopping, the shop owner was a criminal suspect. He happened to be there at the time and was taken away to assist in the investigation. He will be released tomorrow."

The servant sighed.

This kid is really unlucky.

However, she quickly realized something and frowned as she looked at Lynette.

Compared to her brother Linni, the famous magician in the city, this little guy was very low-key and could easily be overlooked if she wasn't paying attention.

But thinking of a certain guy, this person in front of me is simply the perfect match.

Cat ears, cat tail, black stockings.

Although the servant was not interested in that kind of thing, she had learned a little about it in order to deal with Xu Guang.

If she remembered correctly, men seemed to really like this type.

After hesitating for a moment, the servant said, "If you don't have anything to do in the future, you should come here less often."

Lynette was somewhat puzzled.

"Why, father?"

The servant shook his head and sighed, "You don't need to ask about that. Just know that I'm doing this for your own good, understand?"

Lynette didn't know why, but she nodded nonetheless.

Having been raised by the other party, she was also taught the concept of obedience.

Father may have run into some trouble.

But since she wasn't willing to tell her, she wouldn't ask.

This is something that every sensible child must learn.

Seeing that the other person was about to leave, the servant thought for a moment and still felt it wasn't safe, so he added another sentence.

"If you go out in the future and see a good-looking, smiling, black-haired man, remember not to talk to him and stay away."

Lynette nodded emphatically.

She thought her father might be worried that she would become a victim in a teenage abduction case, which was why he said that.

However, she possesses divine eyes, making her virtually untouchable by ordinary thugs.

Chapter 374: The Snow Mountain Adventure Begins

"I am back."

Xu Guang stretched, looking quite content.

He looked at the group of people who were already waiting at the foot of the snow-capped mountain and smiled: "Sorry to keep you waiting."

The others didn't seem to notice anything, since they hadn't been there for very long anyway.

Dixia, on the other hand, was feeling unwell.

Having lived in the desert year-round, she had never seen snow. She could tolerate the heat, but she absolutely could not stand the cold.

Seeing Xu Guang arrive, she didn't care about anything else and rushed over to lean against him.

Xu Guang looked at Dixia, who was shivering from the cold, unzipped his coat, and wrapped her inside.

Then, out of nowhere, they pulled out some thick coats.

"You should change into these too, we'll be spending quite a bit of time in the snow-capped mountains later."

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

They were a little cold too, but at least they weren't as cold as Dixia, who could barely stand.

Nestled in Xu Guang's arms, Dixia gritted her teeth and laughed, "Why do I feel like you're doing this on purpose?"

Xu Guang asked, puzzled, "What?"

Dixia snorted coldly: "Why did you have to bring me to a place like this? Don't you know I spend most of my time in the desert?"

Listening to what the other person said, Xu Guang rubbed the other person's head.

"That's clever! Are you going back?"

Dixia hesitated for a moment, then shrank back, feeling the other person's warmth: "Fine, since you're here anyway, you can just be my campfire, humph..."

This is a very typical arrogant statement. Many people have a misconception that arrogant people are very annoying.

But the key to being tsundere is being cute.

Who the hell would like an arrogant person?

That kind of feeling isn't usually about liking someone, but rather about awakening some extraordinary attribute.

Holding Dixia in his arms, Xu Guang looked around at the people who had arrived.

Keqing, Amber, Yola, and Mona.

The latter two are people I haven't spent time with for a while, so this is a good opportunity to deepen our relationship.

Xu Guang stretched his muscles and bones.

"Everyone, let's get ready to set off. I didn't make it clear before, but now I'll make it clear: our target this time is the evil dragon Dulin."

"That monster that caused so many casualties in Mondstadt, according to my intelligence, will resurrect in the snowy mountains and inflict unimaginable damage on the border between Liyue and Mondstadt. If any of you are afraid, you may leave first."

Xu Guang looked at the people in front of him.

He understood perfectly well that no one was afraid.

These individuals are either highly responsible or concerned about the development of their country, and in order to eliminate this potential threat, they will definitely stay.

But then a sudden sound came.

"Hmph, the evil dragon Dulin, huh? Interesting. Let me, the princess of judgment, deal with it."

Xu Guang raised an eyebrow. The distinctive way he spoke and the tone made it easy to guess who the voice belonged to.

But he remembered that he hadn't invited the other party.

Turning his head, Xu Guang looked at Fischl standing on the withered tree and blinked.

The chuunibyou girl continued her performance.

"Mortals, let me save you."

Xu Guang coughed and said, "Your Majesty, I must remind you that the withered tree under your feet doesn't seem to be very sturdy."

Fischl grinned crookedly: "How could that be, this princess..."

click-

Before he could finish speaking, a crisp sound rang out from the tree trunk.

Fischl's expression froze.

Then, with a snap, the branch fell down, and she fell with it. Fortunately, Xu Guang reacted quickly, and even with Dixia in his arms, it didn't affect his speed.

He caught the other person with ease.

Looking at the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) girl whose fate seemed to be gripped by the back of her collar, Xu Guang asked with great interest, "Your Majesty, what brings you here?"

Fischl raised her delicate face, her expression full of confidence.

"This princess knows everything!"

Xu Guang narrowed his eyes: "Tell me the truth, or I'll have the Knights send you back later."

Upon hearing this, Fischl paused for a moment: "I... when I went to inspect the territory, I heard the astrologer say that he was going to slay a monster, so I came along."

Mona, who had been enjoying the joke, froze upon hearing this.

Why is she involved now?

Seeing the look Xu Guang gave her, Mona looked into the distance with some embarrassment.

She didn't do it on purpose; she just ran into him while buying alchemy materials and chatted with him for a bit. Who would have thought he would follow her?

Xu Guang sighed helplessly and nodded: "Alright, more people means more fighting power, but don't do anything reckless when you really encounter that evil dragon."

Fischl's eyes lit up: "Don't worry, this princess will definitely not do anything reckless, and don't underestimate me, I'm very capable."

Xu Guang smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes."

you're good.

As the former Demon King of the Dream World, he knew this girl's abilities all too well. He even gave her a Ghost Legion, but he didn't know if she had made good use of them.

However, when it comes to slaying evil dragons, it's certainly possible to bring them along.

I feel that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they would be a great match.

He sighed, released the chuunibyou girl, and handed her a piece of clothing.

Xu Guang looked at the snow-capped mountains and said, "We may encounter many dangers and unexpected accidents along the way, so please be careful."

Ke Qing, who understands Xu Guang best, chuckled.

Compared to the evil dragon, you are the most dangerous one, okay?

With the other side present, the evil dragon couldn't really hurt them, but that's precisely the case.

With this guy around, it wouldn't be surprising if something happened.

For example, being pulled into a small corner in the middle of the night, and then... hehe hahe.

terrible.

However, she was indeed quite concerned about what exactly this evil dragon was all about.

So the group set off.

At first, things were relatively calm, since there were knights patrolling the snow-capped mountains, leaving no room for the monsters to breed.

But as the temperature dropped further, things started to go wrong.

Xu Guang looked at the big tree not far away, then at the footprints on the ground, and pondered for a moment.

"King Qiuqiu?"

Yura stepped forward; she had spent a considerable amount of time working in the field, so she recognized her at a glance.

"Indeed."
