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

Page 104

Good heavens, can this be said outright?

A believer, huh?

If the Wind God finds out, he'll be furious.

Noelle calmed down a bit, noticed the other person's expression, and immediately understood. She quickly explained, "They're fans. I was too excited just now, so I misspoke. Please don't mind."

Sugar replied with some skepticism, "Is that so..."

She didn't have too many doubts, after all, people always have some strange filters when facing a maid with a good personality and friendly manner.

Noel quickly regained her composure and flashed her usual smile: "So please think it over carefully. But before that, let me take you to the reception room. I'll talk to Mr. Xu Guang later."

Upon hearing this, Sugar breathed a heavy sigh of relief, adjusted her glasses, and looked at the other person with gratitude: "Thank you so much."

If there were fewer people, she probably wouldn't be so nervous... right?

After the decision was made, Sugar was led to the reception room, where she looked at the strangely decorated style and was momentarily bewildered.

"what is this?"

Noelle followed the direction the other person was looking and saw a luxurious and colorful set of furniture, with a spherical chandelier hanging from the ceiling.

At night, the powerful light will keep rotating and illuminating every part of the private room and the reception room.

However, since the other party is a target that can be absorbed, Noel patiently explained, "This was modified according to Mr. Xu Guang's requirements. Although we don't quite understand what Heaven on Earth and Big Bird Spinning Bar are, our loyal fans still did their best to do all of this. This is our cohesion and execution!"

Sugar blinked. She had never joined any fan club, so she wasn't sure if loyalty could really be used to describe it.

I always feel like something is weird.

I hope the wind god won't blame me.

Wendy, far away in the snowy mountains, caught in the cold wind, sneezed, her face showing aggrieved expression.

"No, why haven't they come back yet? I've finished all my drinks..."

Back in the living room, Noelle knew that when dealing with people with social anxiety, she couldn't push them too hard, or it would backfire.

If Xu Guang finds out, he'll definitely tell her, but that's not necessarily true.

He's an expert when it comes to coercion.

She can command the gods and high-ranking officials of a nation, and make exotic catgirls and aloof mature women meow together.

After handing the flyer to the other party, Noelle bowed slightly and left.

She hadn't forgotten that Mr. Xu Guang was going to teach her how to act today.

Thinking of this, the little maid's face turned red again.

What an honor it is to be able to spend time alone with Mr. Xu Guang and receive his personal guidance. Of course, before that, it is more important to take care of business.

Xu Guang, on the other side, looked at the crowd that had gathered around him and smiled dismissively.

After he greeted her, Sugar disappeared. He wondered to himself, "Is her social anxiety that severe?"

However, it's better for the characters to have more varied personalities, so that they can get different feedback when using new gameplay.

Take Sugar, for example. You know, in many works, glasses have special properties. Imagine tricking her into a dark room, doing something to her glasses, and seeing her panicked expression. Just thinking about it is quite interesting.

Looking at these people, Xu Guang was perfunctory with each one in order to maintain his public image.

Soon, the little maid walked out from the crowd, and everyone quickly made way for her.

Noelle successfully reached Xu Guang's side and bowed to the crowd in apology.

"Excuse me, everyone, Mr. Xu Guang has other matters to attend to today. Please do not block the way here, as there are other patients who have been brought in and are waiting for treatment."

Upon hearing this, the crowd slowly dispersed.

Seeing how capable the little maid was, Xu Guang praised her and rubbed her cheek.

"That's really impressive. Otherwise, with so many people, I don't know how much time it would have taken."

Noelle, taken aback, nodded with a silly grin: "You're welcome, it's what I should do."

But deep down I was thinking...

This moment was an intimate contact unique to her, one that no one else had ever experienced.

His eyes became unfocused, his breathing became heavy, and his body gradually felt hot.

Xu Guang raised an eyebrow; he could tell what the other person was thinking, so he was somewhat surprised.

I never imagined that you, Noelle, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be such a perverted woman in secret.

Something's up; looks like tonight's activities will need to be adjusted.

Chapter 146: Alchemy can't always avoid tentacles, right?

Xu Guang coughed and stopped what he was doing. He looked into Noel's cloudy eyes, which were filled with rage.

He had seen that look in Linghua's eyes before, and once Linghua showed that look, it was all over; he would have to do it at least ten times.

Xu Guangyi smacked his lips and said solemnly, "Just don't forget what happened tonight. How about we get started on today's work?"

The little maid was perfectly fine with it. She first took out her notebook, skipped over the unimportant things, and looked at what she still needed to do today.

"There are still some patients who need to be re-examined, since their infection is quite severe. Then there's Miss Barbara from the West Wind Cathedral who wants to schedule a time to meet with you. Finally, there's Miss Sugar; she's already waiting for you in the meeting room. Would you like to go see her?"

Xu Guang nodded. Of course he knew Sugar. He had come here because Sugar really wanted to see him. The system detected this and was about to move forward when Noelle called him back.

"Mr. Xu Guang..."

The maid blushed and handed over a paper bag containing warm food.

"I thought you probably hadn't had breakfast yet, so I prepared some in advance. I don't know if it suits your taste."

Xu Guang took it, looked at the exquisite food inside, which was obviously carefully prepared by the other party, and sighed slightly.

Oh no, I'm going to be turned into a useless person.

Although he had just arrived in Genshin Impact, he became quite dejected, preferring to use the controller rather than do things himself.

All of this changed after Hana Sanri arrived.

The witch took over all his daily life in the dream world, and he even had a breast pillow when he lay down.

I was still regretting that I couldn't bring the other person into the real world, but now, another Noelle has arrived.

After putting the paper bag away, Xu Guang praised her, saying, "I really like it. She truly is an all-powerful maid."

Noelle's eyes sparkled. She had never been fond of this title before, believing that she was neither a legend nor a myth, but simply someone who had done everything she was supposed to do and pursued it to the extreme.

Now that she heard the other person say that, she felt that it might not be a bad idea.

To be praised by someone you care about...

Noelle lowered her head, feeling her heart beating faster and faster, and a smile appeared on her lips.

The two walked through the corridor and arrived at the reception room. Before they even went in, Xu Guang heard a muttering voice coming from inside.

"Hello Mr. Xu Guang, my name is Sugar. I'd like to have some academic discussions with you, and I hope you'll agree... Oh dear, is that a bit too polite of me? Could you be a little more tactful?"

The girl covered her head, looking quite distressed.

Previously, she could only communicate with her teachers and a few classmates. She spent the rest of her time in the lab, and people took care of her food, clothing, and accommodation, so there was nothing to worry about.

She's getting increasingly nervous when she's about to have a conversation with someone really impressive.

"I should have listened to the teacher and talked to others more..."

Sugar sighed, leaned wearily against the sofa, stared at the ceiling, and racked her brains over what she should say next to act like a normal person.

Click——

The room door was pushed open, and the girl's pupils dilated in shock. She quickly stood up and stammered.

"Hello Mr. Sugar, I am Xu Guang..."

At this point, Sugar realized something was wrong, and the light in her eyes immediately disappeared.

Oh no, I've embarrassed myself in front of them. I hope they won't look down on me.

No.

Xu Guang smiled and gently comforted him, "It's okay, don't be nervous. I have a friend who used to be like that, with unclear speech. After having a few in-depth discussions with me, he became very poised and confident."

He was talking about Qi Liangliang. That catgirl has been trained to be more than just poised and elegant; she's even allowed to show off in public, and every now and then she has to equip herself with a detachable tail.

Now you can just pat your butt and you'll know it's the Thunderfire Sword Squat.

Sugar was unaware of these things, but she felt a sense of security from the other person's tone, which reassured her slightly, and she reintroduced herself.

"Hello Mr. Xu Guang, I am Sugar, a biological alchemist, and I would like to discuss some academic knowledge with you..."

This long string of words was the result of the girl rehearsing it many times in her mind.

Xu Guang feigned distress: "I really want to, but as you know, this knowledge is too important to be easily passed on to others."

Upon hearing this, Sugar felt relieved rather than resentful.

Because she had only mentally prepared herself to meet the other person, and hadn't yet thought about how to get along if the other person actually agreed.

Since you've already refused, there's no need to worry.

Before Sugar could say it was okay, Xu Guang continued, "But if you can guarantee that you will use what you've learned to benefit the people, then I might agree."

Sugar was stunned.

It was understandable that the other party rejected her. After all, what kind of concept is it to be able to purify the filth produced by the abyss so easily without any side effects?

It is important to know that many countries are plagued by the abyss, and countless people die every year because of it.

Even without teaching, simply being a doctor can make one a guest of honor in many powerful organizations.

Even with side effects, it's enough to drive a group of people crazy.

But the other party actually said that as long as she promised to benefit the people, he would teach her?

Saint?

Sugar's gaze towards the other person underwent a change.

She seemed to understand why Noelle wanted to form a support group for Mr. Xu Guang.

Such noble character, who wouldn't be bewildered?

The girl took a deep breath. She was an alchemist and believed in equivalent exchange.

Even if the other party were willing to help her for free, she could not accept it. So she bowed and said sincerely, "I understand what you mean, Mr. Xu Guang. I am willing to make that promise to you, but please also agree to let me help you in the future, otherwise my conscience will not be at peace."

Xu Guang nodded.

Look, this is what a good child looks like.

What's the deal with those "scattered soldiers"?

Not only did he make a mistake and run around aimlessly, but he also played with inequalities, saying that my desire to atone for my sins does not equate to taking action.

Really messed up.

Faced with the girl's request, Xu Guang naturally couldn't refuse, so he thought for a moment and gave a suggestion.

"I do need your help with something, but I need to wait until you've thought it through. Right now, it's more important to take care of the sick patients. What do you think?"

Sugar nodded heavily. In her eyes, the other person's figure grew taller and taller. She had already made up her mind that she would join the support group that Noelle had formed later and do her part for Mr. Xu Guang.

Xu Guang, however, was lost in thought.

A girl with glasses, gray stockings, and an alchemy girl who's into academics—it would be a shame if she didn't end up with tentacles later.

Chapter 147: Suffocation

As is well known, slimes and tentacles exist in the Genshin Impact universe.

However, to manipulate a character he likes in this way is tantamount to making a fool of himself, putting a green hat on his own head. Xu Guang certainly cannot accept this, but that doesn't mean he can't do it.

His decision was to erase the consciousness of those creatures, reconnect them with his own senses, and integrate them into his physical body.

This is also how we will approach other roles in the future.
