The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

"Lin Ye should go find Lamia. Her condition is very worrying." Qi Liangliang explained, looking worried.

Lamia blended into the crowd. Her hair color and temperament made her stand out among the Liyue people.

Honestly, Lin Ye had no idea what Lamia was worried about. She always hesitated to speak, being very mysterious and never telling anyone what was on her mind.

She always calls herself an alien.

Temperament comes from the heart. Those who are self-pitying will be deeply impressed by their decadence, gloominess and evasion at first sight.

Lin Ye caught up with Lamia and found that her aqua blue pupils were constricted, much like the eyes of a cold-blooded animal, and she was obviously nervous about something.

"Why are you running?" Lin Ye asked.

Lamia hid in a corner of an alley. She stared at the people passing by without answering Lin Ye. After a while, as if she had confirmed something, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"I saw a terrible man."

"Who?"

"do not know."

“Can you describe the features?”

"Very similar to the one next to you."

Lin Ye was slightly stunned. They were very similar to the people around him, namely Ying and Paimeng.

Is Paimon scary?

Yes.

terrible.

One meal can eat a ton (

"It's a blond boy, right?"

Lamia nodded wildly.

Kong, how come he appeared in Liyue Harbor?

Lin Ye couldn't help but frown, recalling the plot of the game. After the main storyline of the Liyue Demon God mission ended, Ying and Dainsreb met for the first time. They found an upside-down statue in a secret realm. The Abyss Cult intended to use the core of the world's first tiller to transform the vortex demon god Osel into a mechanical demon god.

Is the plan ahead of schedule? Lin Ye thought.

"Where did you find him?"

Lamia pointed in a direction.

Lin Ye was about to go over when he heard Lamia's voice from behind.

"If you go there now, he may have already left."

Think about it too.

Lin Ye asked Lamia about how she met Kong and learned that it was a chance glimpse.

"Are you so scared just because the other person looked at you?" Lin Ye said helplessly.

Lamia bowed her head and said nothing.

What really frightened Lamia was that Kong seemed to have recognized her identity. There was a scrutiny in his indifferent eyes, as if he was looking at a pathetic creature.

This is the Siren's premonition.

Lin Ye looked at the system panel and found that [Lamia’s Wish] in the task column was still incomplete.

Complete Lamia's second wish and gain true freedom.

Fulfill Lamia’s third wish, not letting Lamia be alone.

Lin Ye felt it was a difficult situation, as Lamia's heart barrier was thicker than he had imagined.

What exactly do freedom and loneliness mean here? Lin Ye feels that Lamia is like a person who has just entered puberty and is unwilling to talk about her troubles. How can she get effective help like this?

Lin Ye decided to give it a try.

After thinking for a while, Lin Ye spoke.

"You have reached land."

"So, you regret it?"

Lamia raised her head upon hearing this, not knowing how to answer the question asked by Lin Ye.

"I regret coming to the land. There are a lot of terrible people here, and a lot of people who are different from you. If you can't adapt to the climate and feel lonely and helpless, why not go back?" Lin Ye asked again.

"No." Lamia said quickly, as if she was afraid that Lin Ye would deny her choice. "I have gotten used to life on land. I have friends. Qiliangliang has enlightened me. I no longer think of myself as an outlier on land."

"Then why do you feel lonely? Aren't you free? From the prison of that lonely island in the sea."

"I…"

Lamia opened her mouth, but hesitated.

"If you don't want to say it, then forget it. It's boring. I don't need you to help me lift the Siren's curse. You can do whatever you want." Lin Ye said coldly.

He acted like a villain in a movie or TV series, then walked away with a wave of his sleeves.

This tactic of provoking the opponent was extremely effective on Lamia, who was in a state of confusion.

"I... ate my sister."

Lamia finally spoke out the reasons that caused her pain and prevented her from reaping the joy of realizing her dreams.

When Lin Ye heard this, his pupils trembled.

I am super.

Didn't he hear it wrong?

What does it mean to eat your sister? This is such a weird thing.

Sure enough, Lamia is a pervert.

Lin Ye turned around, and then he saw Lamia, who was broken and crying like a cat with tears in her eyes.

Crystal clear tears kept sliding down her cheeks, her aqua blue eyes were misty, and Lamia's voice was sobbing.

She thought she could be indifferent, just like she was using someone else's knife to kill someone in order to realize her dream.

Until Siren was killed and her blood splattered on Lamia's face, the smell and bitterness of the blood made Lamia suddenly realize what a heinous crime she had committed from her hostile state.

Tears dripped onto the ground.

It’s a pity that she is not a mermaid, otherwise she would turn into pearls on the ground.

She is Lamia.

A sea monster that is as famous as the Sirens in legend.

Lamia suddenly hugged Lin Ye, buried her face in the boy's chest, and said with a sob.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Sister!"

Carrying the curse of the Siren and being infected with the breath of the Siren.

At this moment, Lamia regarded Lin Ye as a Siren—her sister, her compatriot, who could accept her and make her not a lonely blood relative.

What a ridiculous and pathetic self-consolation, Lamia.

The person in front of me is my enemy, but he exudes the aura of nostalgia.

This fact made Lamia, a sea monster whose thinking circuits were somewhat different from those of people on land, deeply trapped and unable to extricate herself.

Just like what a saw man said, "There is clearly the smell of xx outside the door."

Lin Ye was surprised at first when faced with Lamia's sudden crying, but he was not panicked. The reason was simple. He had comforted Ahe many times, who was occasionally affected by negative emotions. He skillfully pulled out his hand, stroked Lamia's head, and spoke gently.

"never mind."

“…Someone come, save me…” Lamia whispered.

"Does anyone want to harm you? Sister and brother will help Lamia." Lin Ye said.

“…The Whirlpool Demon.” Lamia said with a trembling voice.

"The Sirens are His people. It is the Sirens' destiny to pave the way for His will, but I don't want to be an enemy of the land... I just want to feel the ground under my feet and smell the flowers and plants on the land..."

Lin Ye listened to Lamia's crying, but he had a doubt in his mind.

How could Lamia know that Osel would be freed?

She is a siren. Did you know this through special channels?

Or is it that there is already a problem with the seal of Guyun Pavilion, and Tartaglia's use of the Hundred Taboos Talisman is just the last step to success?

Lin Ye whispered to Lamia that the Whirlpool Demon was suppressed in Guyun Pavilion and would not threaten her to do anything she didn't want to do.

"The swarm is calling, calling every siren. Soon, Liyue Harbor will be hit by a tsunami."

"You and Qiliangliang should run away quickly. Let's go to Mondstadt, Xumi, Fontaine, Munata, and Winter Solstice together. In short, the farther the better..." Lamia muttered.

With a powerful enemy at our doorstep, how can we surrender before fighting?

There is no word for deserter in Lin Ye’s dictionary, only tactical retreat.

However, Osel alone was not enough to force Lin Ye to choose a tactical retreat.

This is Liyue, and Lin Ye, who has experienced the catastrophe of the Layered Abyss, is especially certain that even if Zhongli really dies and the Whirlpool Demon attacks, countless Thousand Rocks soldiers, talented people, and the Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Immortal will rush forward and use themselves to block the tsunami from Lamia's mouth.

Lamia is not Lin Ye, and cannot understand the confidence in Lin Ye's bones.

"Lamia, I am not a siren. I cannot understand your fear of Osel. I will not just talk empty words and let you fight against the so-called fate alone."

"But if words cannot express it, then see it with your own eyes." Lin Ye's voice was sonorous and powerful.

"Osel will come back, so be it. The result will be nothing more than being suppressed and sealed once again."

"You can't defeat Osel because you have lost your god. In fact, you can..."

“Do you remember our last conversation?” Lin Ye interrupted Lamia’s next words and said, “There is only one god in Liyue, and He is respected as the Rock King by every Liyue person.”

"Human lifespans are like summer insects and morning mushrooms, born in the morning and dying in the evening. We cannot understand what it feels like to have the Emperor accompany us for 3,600 years. This is too long, and it takes countless generations of accumulated lives to catch up."

"Let me put myself in his shoes. I feel the length of time and the weight of responsibility. However, the Emperor has fulfilled the contract with the people of Liyue very well. He has no intention of competing for supremacy. He only feels pity for the suffering of the people and protects them."

"It is impossible for the people of Liyue to betray the Emperor and join Osel's army. The people of Liyue had already given the answer 3,600 years ago."

"The devil is not invincible." Lin Ye's voice was high, and his temperament came from his heart. Lin Ye, who had turned many impossibilities into miracles along the way, had the confidence and courage to do so.

Lamia only felt that the young man in her eyes gave her a strange feeling.

Like the sun, it was too dazzling, which she could not see while hiding under the deep sea.

For a moment, Lamia actually thought that Lin Ye could help her.

How naive.

Lamia recalled the comments she received when she told her sister about her dream.

In order to see her lover again, the Little Mermaid sacrificed her singing voice in exchange for legs that could walk on land.

In order to set foot on land, the Daughter of the Sea planned to kill her relatives and sacrificed the only Siren Voice in the world that even Morax praised, and realized her dream.

And now, this selfish man, this parricide, murmured in a pleading tone.

"If I go astray and betray my own will, Lin Ye, can you...save me?"

"Then don't get your hands on innocent blood. As long as you do this, I will come to help you." Lin Ye said.

……

After the fog on the sea dissipated, fishing boats continued to fish and catch crabs as usual.

"Hey, you know what, we've been catching a lot of fish lately. We can easily catch twice as much as we used to."

The fisherman said to his son.

"Dad, isn't this a blessing in disguise? Although we encountered a shipwreck on our way to Guyun Pavilion, during that time, Mom's illness was cured by Doctor Baishu from Bubulu. You see, Prince Yan knew that we needed to catch fish to sell to pay for the medicine, so all the fish rushed into the net."

"If you ask me, this is the spirit of Lord Yan appearing. Everyone has been fishing like crazy these days. Mr. Zhang next door even slept on his boat at night instead of going home."

“But everyone is saying…”

"You bastard! What treasonous words are you saying! Even if you curse your father, you can't say bad things about Prince Yan!" the fisherman said angrily. He quickly pretended to beg for mercy from the sky, muttering that the child was still young and hoped that Prince Yan would not blame him.

Afterwards, the fisherman said bitterly.
