People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 454: Little Yellow Hair: Take it! There are not so many abyss disasters in Teyvat now!
“Wow, why is it like this? Who set up this treasure chest?!”

"We have to give up such a luxurious treasure chest. What if we don't dare to take it and watch it being taken away by others?"

With puffed cheeks, he looked forward unwillingly.
Having never encountered such an extremely confusing secret realm before, Paimon's hand just stopped in mid-air, and he was reluctant to leave the treasure chest.

"Breathing the breath of the abyss will more easily attract abyss monsters."

It wasn't just Paimon. Next to a white-haired ball that was trying to restrain itself, a blonde girl was also in a dilemma:

——If I must say, I would definitely avoid being contaminated by the aura of the abyss if possible.

Although she showed very good resistance to the abyss when she encountered the monster called "Golden King Beast" last time, it only took her a short time to purify the remaining abyss pollution around her.

But I already encounter monsters everywhere. If I strengthen my physique that attracts special events, my journey will be completely unsettled.
But then again,

The biggest attraction of a treasure chest is the unknown, and there are many reasons why she and Paimon like to open treasure chests because of this.

If the person who gave the tip had explained clearly what was inside the treasure chest, she might have been able to make a better decision, but the other person only mentioned that the things inside the treasure chest were extremely valuable.
"."

The more I thought about it, the more curious I became. It was as if ten Paimons were stuffed into my heart and I couldn't calm down.
With her last bit of rationality, she came to the sign. After she saw the small words on the back, the balance in her heart finally shifted in the direction:

".The abyss aura here is extremely pure, so it can also be regarded as a blessing?"

"Although irrational abyss monsters will be attracted, they will not easily attack. However, high-level abyss monsters with reason are more likely to become hostile."

Move for a while,
After sensing the aura lingering on the treasure chest, he discovered that this power was indeed much stronger than the monster he encountered last time, and it did not seem so chaotic and disordered.

Based on this speculation,

Although it would take a long time to purify it, at least the negative effects of this thing might not be that bad:

——From what we know about several countries so far, although the Kanreya disaster occurred hundreds of years ago, there are not many abyss monsters active in either Xumi Mond or Liyue.

——Since low-level abyss monsters are already extremely rare, as long as your luck is not too bad, there is no way you can encounter high-level abyss monsters.
Take a deep breath and look at the luxurious treasure chest in front of you that exudes temptation all the time.
Faced with one of her few hobbies, the blonde girl struggled a bit, but ultimately couldn't suppress her curiosity and made the final decision:

"Paimon, move aside for a moment. Let me open it."

"What those tips say is most likely true, but I happen to have a strong ability to resist and purify such power. If I take it, I only need to endure the negative effects for a period of time."

Rationally judged the risks of taking the treasure chest and felt that it was acceptable.

Ying felt that although her luck was bad, it was impossible for it to be so bad as to attract a massive invasion from the Abyss.
"."

Putting aside the distracting thoughts in my mind, I came to this unprecedented huge and luxurious treasure chest.

Taking a deep breath, the blonde girl was curious about what was in the treasure chest that had troubled her for so long. With a sense of anticipation in her heart, she opened the treasure chest with force.

? ? !

The moment it opened, a dazzling golden light was emitted, and an unprecedented visual impact came upon you.

Completely different from the previous treasure chests filled with fragments of earth veins,
Ying looked at the Mora and elemental gems that were piled up to the point of overflowing, as well as the golden bracelet floating in the center. She was briefly stiff because of this harvest.

".Wow, is this true?!"

"——Shouldn't a normal treasure chest be mostly empty? With so many things in it, Paimon takes back all the bad things he said about this guy!!"

At first glance, he saw the huge box full of treasures, and the words of a certain white-haired kid were filled with uncontrollable excitement.

Ying looked at the golden bracelet that was the core reward. After touching it, she had a general idea of ​​what it was:

".If I'm not mistaken, this thing seems to be a reusable self-defense teleportation item? The upper limit of protection can even resist the angry gods?"

"And its energy source? Is it those very expensive elemental gems?"

? ?
The reward is obviously very good, and it can even be said to be far beyond my expectations.

But for some reason, Ying looked at this somewhat subtle "reusable" function and the Mora and gems in the treasure chest that seemed to be "start-up capital",
Because of the visual sense of distributing necessary props before participating in a dangerous challenge, the ominous premonition in my heart suddenly became stronger.
At the same time, on the hillside of Longji Snow Mountain, in front of a huge cave.

Lin Feng, who had just arrived here, paused and showed an expression that was not unexpected:

——The treasure chest he had prepared was finally opened. The little yellow-haired boy chose to bravely accept the blessing of the abyss and took away the mysterious and wonderful tool that he would use later.

Although I already knew that it was almost impossible for this guy to let a luxurious treasure chest run away from him.

But nothing is certain. Now that we have confirmed that the necessary fishing buff has been successfully attached,

Lin Feng was also very pleased to say that her future journey as an Inazuma might be quite eventful.
He shook his head and turned his attention away from the "Inazuma Special Envoy" who was about to leave.
Lin Feng felt the breath at the end of the cave, and did not forget what he came here to do:
——After repairing the sky spike on the top of the snow mountain, he searched for the ground vein nodes in the snow mountain area.

It is not only to facilitate the introduction of the cold air in Mondstadt's veins, but also to prepare for the subsequent division of the veins to prevent the cold air from flowing back.

Of course, during the process of searching, he also appreciated the scenery of the snow-capped mountains from top to bottom.

Not only did he see many ice crystal butterflies, snow foxes, and the atavistic followers sent by Andrius, but he also found an extremely large ancient snow pig in a valley.
Although for the sake of species protection, he did not kill the other party and take a large amount of meat like in the game,

But facing this big guy who seemed to be charging at him with a weak brain, he used physical therapy to pin the other party to the ground, and the wild boar's eyes became much clearer.
"The one inside should be Wuku, right? The recorder of the history of the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain. He can probably be considered the historian of this ancient country?"

"But after enduring the curse and living as the King of the Hills for so long, it seems that my sanity has been worn out."

"Yeah, that's normal. After all, after being alone watching the snow for thousands of years, it's understandable that his eyes are a little dull."

The discovery had already been made, and Lin Feng was not going to pretend not to see it.

Facing this "mortal" who may have the longest lifespan in the entire Teyvat, he knew very well that the other party's existence itself was the embodiment of the word history.

shook his head,

He copied the memory that the white tree had shared with him, along with the fact that the white tree had revived and the changes that would take place in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.
He remotely delivered this memory and some of his own strength to the Hilliel King's mind, allowing him to start the process of regaining his sanity.

The work is done, and there is no waiting for the memory to be completely digested.

Having already found all the earth vein nodes, he planned to go to the top of the snow mountain to activate the sky nail:
——The storm formed around the snow-capped mountains due to the dissipation of the power of the Sky Nail is actually a natural barrier that is very useful in isolating the interaction between the inside and the outside.

Although he may keep these storms to prevent the snow-capped mountains from affecting the surrounding climate,
But now, facing the last chance for the Mond people to explore, considering the difficulty of exploration for those players, it is better to cancel it temporarily. "Ah, look! The storm and clouds on the snowy mountain have dissipated! Is this also the help of the gods to us?"

"If there were no storms, perhaps the exploration of the snowy mountains that has lasted for thousands of years could have been successfully completed before our eyes!"

At the foot of the mountain, there is a camp where people gather.

Not only the members of the Adventurer's Guild, but also the people of Mond who were just there to watch and have fun became excited when they saw the storm around the snow-capped mountains clear away.

As early as the period when Mondstadt was still ruled by the old nobility, many exploration teams were organized to investigate the history of the snowy mountains.

However, things went against their wishes. Even now, after the Knights of Favonius have been in power for thousands of years, the snow-capped mountains are still an elusive forbidden area for exploration.

Now that the snowstorm that was the biggest obstacle has finally dissipated, they may be able to witness this decisive node of great historical value!
"But speaking of it, who will be the final winner of this preliminary exploration? It seems like there are a lot of strong opponents."

"It's a pity that our adventurer level is not high enough, otherwise if we get good results in this challenge, we might be invited to explore the depths of the snow-capped mountains later."

While discussing the chances of each contestant winning, they looked at the foreign tourists around them who were obviously Liyue people.
Feeling that they had missed an opportunity to leave their names in history, these adventurers also regretted not completing more tasks before.

"Wow! That's a lot of snow!"

"It's a pity that Qiqi didn't come with us this time, otherwise I would definitely take her to experience the skiing challenge just now!"

On the other side, the snow mountain area has prepared a special activity experience area for tourists.

Walnut, who had changed into winter clothes before coming, was jumping in the snow, sharing his feelings with the black-haired young man next to him with excitement on his face.

The whole person seems to have endless energy, and the plum blossom ornaments made by the girl herself on her head also appear more bright red against the background of white snow.

Although it would not be a big deal for the holder of the Fire Elemental God's Eye not to change clothes, since his hall master wanted to pursue a sense of ceremony, Zhongli naturally would not say anything to spoil the fun.

".Master, this environment is indeed the most suitable for Qiqi.

If I set off to Mondstadt again, I will have a chance to talk to Mr. Bai Shu."

"Aiya! Keqing, you still know how to say nice things!"

"Hehe, talk more often, so that I can be more motivated when I pay the bill for you!"

It was rare to hear such sincere recognition from the mouth of one of his own guests. Hu Tao, who was a little tired from running, stopped where he was, put his hands on his hips and nodded with satisfaction.

"——Okay, it's about time. Let's go and see the results of this time."

"Tsk, it's a pity that the Great Sage left right after taking the special snacks I gave him. Otherwise, maybe I could ask him to help see if I can bring Qiqi here."

While muttering all kinds of strange ideas, he and Zhongli rushed to the competition venue ahead.

Even though they had a whole day of fun in the snow and ice, which was extremely rare in Liyue, she was also curious about what kind of ranking Ying and Paimon would get.

"Ah, Sister Beidou! Here, here! Are you coming here to see the snow too?"

"Hehe, although I knew that everyone from the Southern Cross would come to Mondstadt, I didn't expect to meet them here by chance!"

As the contestants returned one after another, the organizers were counting the number of marks at the workbench.
Xiangling looked at the black-haired woman with an eye patch in front of her and greeted her with some surprise.

"Ha, after all, we've been running around Inazuma for too long, and all we've seen all day is thunderstorms and rain. I promised to take the sailors for a change of mood, and it would be bad to break that promise."

"It's a pity that the tournament the fleet applied for was not approved, but it's nice to be able to come here and see Mondstadt's most elite adventurers."

I originally wanted to apply for a martial arts competition with the Knights of Favonius, but unfortunately it was not approved because the "theme did not match".

I heard that those who can come to explore the snow-capped mountains this time are the most elite adventurers. Beidou also wants to see if there are any heroes in Mondstadt who can conquer the snow-capped mountains without relying on the Eye of God.

"Oh, yes, look at my memory."

"I almost forgot that I had no time to introduce you to the new members of the fleet. There is a good man on board, his name is Manye, and he is from Inazuma. He also helped a lot in helping the fleet pass through those thunderstorms."

"Ah, I know! Everyone said that you like this helper, Beidou. Take me with you to meet him later."

"——The mark statistics are complete, and the results will be announced next!"

“——Ah! Here it comes!”

"Sister Beidou, come with me to see the final results. I have a feeling that Ying and the others will do well this time!"

As they chatted, the results of today's schedule finally came out. Xiangling pulled Beidou aside and introduced her to this good friend she knew.

"——Champions, Traveler Squad!"

"——You are far ahead. You are worthy of being the honorary knight praised by the acting captain!"

At the statistics counter, the staff looked at the number of marks, which was at least equal to the total number of all the remaining people, and for a moment they didn't even know how to praise it.

I never imagined that someone would have such a talent for finding treasure chests. They had hidden those treasure chests very cleverly, but the travelers in front of me could find them so easily.
"Congratulations! The association's rewards will be awarded later. If you are interested, you can also participate in further exploration of the deep areas of the snowy mountains!"

They offered their congratulations enthusiastically, but the staff noticed that the winner in front of them seemed a little worried.

"Excuse me, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, nothing. Can you sense any strange aura from me?"

"Strange smell? No, you look healthy."

Although I didn't know why he asked this, I still called the doctor over. After reaching a conclusion, the staff member gave a somewhat strange answer.

"That's good, I'm probably just worrying too much."

He heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the rewards in the treasure chest were a little too rich. If they were to be exchanged for equal value, the price he should pay would not be too low.
I shook my head, thinking that I was just thinking too much.
Other things are easy to deal with, but the abyss monsters have disappeared for so long.

Unless someone in the place where I'm going can sense the abyss aura on me and hates it, this time should be a pure profit no matter how you think about it.
