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

Page 183

So she cooperated.

Xu Guang could sense this emotion, and he chuckled.

"Madam, you are such a captivating person, it makes one want to tear away your rationality."

Just like every character he had consumed before.

Xu Guang snapped his fingers.

Something has appeared.

He explained with a smile, "I think we'll be facing a grass dragon and getting into a fight with it later. Since that's the case, why don't you learn about the dragon race first? I happen to have a phantom dragon here."

How can a phantom dragon not be considered a dragon?

Xu Guang straightened the Illusionary Dragon while pressing down on the Great Compassionate Tree King.

"Well then, I hope you won't disappoint me, madam. The main course is about to begin."

……

Xu Guang sat in front of the control panel, looking at the screen and planning what to do next.

The Great Compassion Tree King is very lush, and because she can stay in the dream world for a long time, Xu Guang did many interesting things.

First, here's a question: what separates the two tunnels that run side by side?

A thin layer of obstruction.

Therefore, Xu Guang could feel the pressure, which was brought by the Illusionary Dragon.

He also got his wish and tore through the Great Compassion Tree King's rationality, leaving the other party lying on the ground panting heavily, its mouth opening and closing.

All three are.

After taking photos to commemorate the occasion, Xu Guang began planning what would happen next.

He is not the kind of person who goes back on his word; he will definitely help the other party resolve the issue of taboo knowledge.

But he has always said that there is only one price to pay.

Since he'll be going to Sumeru anyway, the grass dragon is just a piece of cake.

He observed the current situation.

After the Fatui caused havoc in Liyue, Ningguang fulfilled her promise: all Fatui members within Liyue were expelled, and the Enforcers were put on the wanted list.

The young master's future situation is unlikely to be good.

The lady has already boarded Inazuma's boat, so she should arrive soon.

Because of him, the shadow was altered, the lightning that covered the sea around Inazuma disappeared, and all merchant ships could pass normally.

However, the travelers still found Beidou.

Xu Guang stroked his chin, wondering if this was some kind of contraction of the line of fate.

However, Inazuma is his territory, and if travelers really come, they'll be at his mercy.

Although it's possible now.

Xu Guang opened his memo app, glanced at the things he hadn't done yet, and muttered to himself.

"Fischl's trial should be over soon, then it's Noelle's turn for her assessment. But since I'm here, quite a few more people should be coming. You can bring the two kids, Sugar too, and um, Jean too, and Amber too..."

If you calculate it that way, his trip wasn't an assessment at all; it was more like a spring outing!

However, it doesn't matter. There are only two main reasons why Noelle hasn't become a knight: one is that she lacks a firm enough personality, and the other is that she lacks the strength.

With him around, we don't need to worry about either of these things. If all else fails, we can always use connections.

He went through the back door for Qin, and then Qin went through the back door for Noelle.

What a perfect plan.

Once things are settled in Mondstadt, I can go play with Xianyun a couple more times, and then we can reconnect the timelines.

After that, you can continue to pursue the characters.

He still has three kingdoms he has not yet set foot in: Sumeru, Nata, and Winter.

Although he only dabbled in Fontainebleau, he did develop several characters connected to him.

Although Fufu wasn't eaten, it can still be put on the agenda.

He didn't intend to make her his caged bird, so he would only offer help when necessary and would ensure that no one would bully her.

The servant now realizes he was not in the mood for it.

Since his last visit, the other party has been unusually well-behaved, and the girl has stayed with him.

Having already collected two Hearts of God, and given what happened in Liyue, the remaining kingdoms cannot afford to be lost.

So the captain tacitly approved of the girl's actions, only saying that she had to leave after obtaining the Heart of Fontainebleau.

Xu Guang had to admit that the captain was a good person.

With the arrival of the young girl, Fontaine became increasingly attractive to him.

That's so tempting!

Thinking of this, Xu Guang couldn't help but curse.

That damn Osel, I'll just hand him over to Fou later and let her train him.

This is a good opportunity to toughen up her personality.

Just as Xu Guang was about to set off, he saw a name float past him.

[The character you are following: Desia, is logged in]

Xu Guang was somewhat surprised.

He had thought about who the next character to come would be, but most of his guesses were Mondstadt and Liyue.

He hadn't expected a being from Mount Sumeru to appear.

It's quite novel, but once there's a first, there's bound to be a second.

He was looking forward to it.

Moreover, as one of the five permanent members of the Five Tigers, the player ownership rate is still very high. He had one in his previous life, but unfortunately, its strength was laughable.

Then we should prepare to go and see the newcomers.

Xu Guang set off.

……

"Damn it, where am I?"

Dixia frowned, looking at the strange scenery around her, her expression quite unpleasant.

She vaguely remembered that she had just dealt with the elemental spirits that were ravaging the desert, and then planned to rest and replenish her strength, but when she opened her eyes, she found herself here.

The environment looked familiar, but it felt strange to her, and her former companions had all become... strange.

It was as if my soul had been stolen.

This reminded her of some terrifying legends. It is said that long, long ago there was a terrifying monster that devoured people's souls, leaving only a soulless shell.

The monster would also deliberately leave one survivor behind, so that the survivor could see the mess left behind by their companion and enjoy their expression of despair.

At the time, Dixia didn't quite understand, but after growing up a bit, she scoffed at it and said that if such a thing really happened, it was probably done by those lunatics in the Order of the Church.

When this situation actually happened to her, she felt not despair, but rather anger.

If there really is a monster, she will definitely cut off its head.

After numerous unsuccessful attempts, Dixia gave up and decided to go further afield to see if there were any other people who could move around normally like her.

With her greatsword slung over her shoulder, Desia strode away.

After a long search, she seemed to have only received bad news.

Not a single living person.

That's right, Dixia has already considered those who can't move as dead.

What is the most basic thing a person should have?

It is the free will and the ability to think. If you don't even have these, you are either not human or dead.

Chapter 256: It's you! The Five Tigers of Permanent Residence!

"No...not a single one..."

Dixia leaned back in her chair to rest. Fortunately, although she hadn't found any living people, the food nearby was still edible.

She no longer cared whether the food was safe or not. If she didn't eat, she would eventually run out of strength and wouldn't even have the strength to fight back when she encountered a monster.

If I get sick from eating it, I might as well die.

As a mercenary, Dixia possesses an extraordinary open-mindedness.

Picking up a meal, tossing down the money, and carrying the food to the riverbank, Dixia slowly ate it.

Although she knew that no one would notice even if she took it, she didn't intend to do so.

There should be a bottom line in life.

Otherwise, you'll end up becoming someone you hate.

After eating and drinking her fill, Dixia continued her search. She refused to believe that she was the only living person left in the world.

Just as I was about to get up, a voice came.

"Hey, you over there, could you share some of your food with me? You seem to be enjoying it."

Upon hearing this, Dixia turned around warily, and when she saw who it was, she subconsciously raised an eyebrow.

What a handsome young man.

Xu Guang sat at a distance, propping his head up with one hand, and asked with a smile, "You've finished eating, and there's still some left. Would you mind sharing some with me?"

Dixia nodded, put the food on the ground and said, "Okay, then come and get it."

She prepared extra food when she got it, partly because it was a habit of hers as a mercenary, and carrying more food would make it easier for her to travel long distances. It was also in case of emergencies, because in some ignorant places, Mora might not even be useful, and they could only barter for goods, and food was often the hard currency.

At the same time, she didn't simply believe what the other person said.

After searching for so long without finding a single living person, why did a memory suddenly appear at this moment?

She didn't think it was such a coincidence.

Looking at the food that had been placed down, Xu Guang said with some difficulty, "Can't you really take it? To be honest, I'm so hungry I can't walk anymore."

Dixia paused for a moment, observing the other person's complexion. It was rosy and the voice was strong, not at all like someone who was starving.

So why would the other party want to lure her there?

Or perhaps the other party is simply the monster that steals souls, and now that it's tired of watching, it plans to devour her as well.

However, given the current situation, Dixia decided to go and take a look.

She didn't know how long it would take to find another person to talk to, and she wondered if she could rescue her companions if she could defeat the monster.

Having been a mercenary for so long, Desia always scoffed at the saying that it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

What's the point of merely prolonging one's life?

That will cause a person to gradually lose their spirit.

If mercenaries dare not fight or risk their lives, then they are not far from death.

As she picked up the food, Dixia approached, her hand slowly moving towards the greatsword behind her back.

She said in a friendly tone, "Then I'll go over there."

Xu Guang smiled, seemingly without any suspicion, and said, "Okay, thank you so much. I don't know what I would have done without you."

Seeing the other person's gentle and sincere smile, Dixia's heart skipped a beat, and her hand holding the weapon hesitated for a moment.

However, she remained steadfast in her convictions, only adding one condition.

If the other party makes any unusual moves.

Because if this boy weren't a monster, she might very well have mistakenly killed an innocent person.
