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

Looking down at the pendant around her neck, she had to admit that the things Xu Guang gave her were really top-notch, even though Xu Guang was a bit of a character.

With this, at least she doesn't have to worry about her safety anymore.

In a game, that would be like having an invincibility cheat; who would be afraid to fight a boss then?

Hearing the traveler say this, Paimon sighed helplessly and then silently tightened his grip.

"Since you've said so, then go ahead. I hope there won't be any danger. I support you."

The traveler nodded in agreement; she knew Paimon would definitely support her.

It's a pity that every night when she's doing some handicrafts by herself, someone comes out to persuade her, otherwise it would be perfect.

……

Everyone is taking action, but Xu Guang's side remains quiet.

He lay on Shen He's lap as a pillow, enjoying Gan Yu's massage.

He had the best vantage point to see the descent of the Whirlpool Demon God.

"Are we... really not in a hurry?"

Gan Yu said weakly.

Xu Guang waved his hand, gesturing for the other party to increase the pressure, while explaining.

"Don't worry, Liyue has Gui Zhongji, the Seven Stars of Liyue, the Three-Eyed Five Manifestations, the Thousand Rock Army, and a certain blond guy. At most, they will be at a disadvantage temporarily. If all else fails, Ningguang still has the Jade Pavilion. Just throw that thing down."

Gan Yu nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite: "Is that so?"

Xu Guang hummed in agreement.

Poor Oser has only played two matches: once against Zhongli in his strongest form, and once in the revival match against an all-star lineup.

If the other party's wife were attractive, he might be interested and go check it out beforehand, but not now.

However, as far as he knew, the other party's wife, named Ba Che, was also blown to smithereens.

They're quite pitiful.

"So instead of worrying about this and that, you should rest well, recharge your energy, and I'll take care of you."

Xu Guang said this.

These words did indeed comfort Gan Yu, who breathed a sigh of relief and focused on massaging the other person.

Xu Guang smiled with satisfaction, then leaned his head back slightly.

He got what he wanted, moving from a high-class lifestyle into a low-class one.

He wasn't worried about the traveler at all. Even if the traveler encountered Tianli again, he wouldn't die; at most, he'd be imprisoned.

And so, Xu Guang enjoyed a fairly comfortable afternoon nap. His head was resting on Shen He's soft thighs, and he had a pair of delicate little hands on his body. It was quite an enjoyable experience.

When he opened his eyes again, he found Gan Yu biting her lower lip and staring intently at the screen.

The scenes inside change constantly, emphasizing a back-and-forth dynamic.

The multi-headed Oser opened its mouth and unleashed a water wave, while Liyue blocked it with something resembling a mountain-protecting array, then set up the New Return Machine, intending to use the power of the immortals to activate it and send it back.

It looks like we'll soon see travelers encountering danger.

Just in time to head out and save the day.

In the original story, Xiao rescues the person in this scene.

But Xu Guang didn't like others touching his people, so he had to come himself.

Time goes back to a quarter of an hour ago.

The traveler hurried and finally arrived at Qunyu Pavilion before Osel appeared.

At this moment, the place was filled with people and immortals.

The traveler took a breath and looked at everyone smiling. Paimon, who was standing next to her, remarked with emotion.

"So this is the Demon God of the Whirlpool. Just standing here at such a distance, I already feel like I can't breathe."

Keqing stepped forward and nodded: "That's right. Ordinary people would feel uncomfortable just looking at the power of the Demon God. Several new recruits of the Thousand Rock Army have already lost their footing."

Paimon asked curiously, "So what is your defense plan?"

In this timeline, Xu Guang's intervention made Xianyun much more agreeable, and even allowed her to arrive in Liyue Harbor ahead of time to communicate with the Seven Stars, which resulted in the original argument in the story being completely eliminated.

There was more collaboration.

Ningguang smiled and explained to the traveler who had helped Liyue a lot: "Naturally, we'll use the Resurrection Machine. It's a war weapon specifically designed to deal with the Demon God. It just so happens that its creator is here. After she improved it, the immortals infused it with immortal power, and then the enemy will be easier to deal with."

The traveler nodded, unaware that Ke Qing's gaze kept drifting, intentionally or unintentionally, to the necklace around her neck, and his smile gradually turned cold.

"This guy is involved with that guy too? Ha, he really has a lot of energy."

Chapter 235: The Deal is Made

The traveler didn't notice the stares; he simply stood quietly to one side, listening to their conversation, and then nodded in agreement.

She came to see what help she could offer; as the saying goes, she's like a brick in Liyue, ready to be moved wherever needed.

Seeing that no one objected to her plan, Ningguang nodded and looked into the distance: "In that case, let's get moving, everyone! The final battle begins!"

As the sound faded, the immortals leaped up and landed on the newly returned terminal.

At the same time, the Fools also began to take action.

Ningguang snorted coldly. It was these guys who made her work overtime for several weeks and couldn't get any sleep. Naturally, she was full of resentment.

"Stop them!"

The traveler raised her hand, and a longsword appeared in her grasp. Then she charged toward the enemy.

Compared to those executives who were all highly skilled, these little Karami were much easier to deal with.

The group dealt with him quickly and easily, but Oser's attack followed immediately.

Clearly, this demon god also noticed the little gadgets the Liyue people had made.

He roared wildly, venting his resentment and hatred.

How could a mighty demon god be willing to be suppressed in the dark depths of the sea for thousands of years?

Therefore, He wanted everyone here to feel His wrath.

The traveler, watching the water sphere fly in from the horizon, suddenly felt an increase in pressure.

Fighting while dodging, it won't be long before you get injured.

After narrowly dodging the water balloon once again, the traveler was panting heavily, his hands trembling.

She wasn't afraid of getting hurt, but if she was held back, the return trip would definitely be damaged.

However, the necklace only provides damage immunity, not unlimited stamina.

It's impossible to keep this up for long.

Ying turned around and saw that the Thousand Rock Army was also working hard, but they were just ordinary people, and with the presence of the Demon God's pressure, they could only play a limited role on the battlefield.

Just then, a kind voice came from behind.

"Children, don't be afraid, go and fight with confidence."

The traveler recognized the voice as that of Grandma Ping.

Paimon exclaimed in amazement, "Isn't this the immortal power we felt in Jueyun last time? And could this be [Grandma Ping's shockwave]? It's so powerful!"

The traveler was taken aback by these words, and while leaping up to stab an enemy, he shouted, "What the hell is Grandma Ping's shockwave?! Show some respect to the elderly!"

puff-

On the platform, the last Fool fell.

The traveler, gripping his sword, took a deep breath.

The immortals, watching the battle below end, said, "With these enemies eliminated, we can finally stop worrying."

Then several cranes, deer, and other creatures gathered their power to activate the mechanism.

hum-

A beam of light burst forth, striking Osel hard in the distance.

"Roar—"

Roars could be heard from within the smoke.

Paimon exclaimed excitedly, "Great! If that's the case, we can suppress that big guy!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, and the smoke cleared, everyone realized that the demon god's injuries were only minor, and he was even more furious.

Xianyun clicked his tongue.

She's fought Oser before; his strength must be due to those Fools.

Ningguang, standing at the highest point, sneered.

"Once this is over, I will make Zhidong pay the price!"

As Oser looked at the tiny ants over there, its three heads rose up, and countless terrifying energies gathered together and shot out.

Rumble.

An attack imbued with immense divine power flew in, then transformed into countless water cannons that rained down.

It is foreseeable that, given the defensive measures of the Qunyu Pavilion, it will suffer heavy losses from such an attack.

The traveler gritted his teeth, somewhat unwilling.

After all that hard work, is it all going to be ruined?

Is this the Demon God?

"You seem to need help, so how about we make a deal?"

A gentle voice appeared, and Ying swore she had never been so happy to hear it.

High in the sky, Oser's attack was easily neutralized, and a man in white smiled as he approached Ying.

"Good afternoon! You seem pretty busy these days. How about we make a deal? Guaranteed to make you money, what do you say?"

Looking at the other person's languid appearance, Ying felt at ease.

Xu Guang stepped forward and pinched the other person's cheeks twice: "So what's your opinion?"

The traveler nodded quickly, while Paimon behind her covered his mouth, barely daring to breathe, his eyes filled with worry.

While the current situation makes this choice not entirely wrong for travelers, the question remains: what will happen next?

That guy has never been a kind person. Last time he came, he made a mess of the floor, and it was hard to find someone to clean it up.

Otherwise, if they get seen, it'll all be over.

Only she could do it, and she was so small that she had to carry a mop longer than herself and clean it up bit by bit, all while enduring the strange and strong smell.

Paimon said that if this happens again, she will have to prepare a basin in advance to prevent it from overflowing everywhere.

"Then the deal is done."

Xu Guang smiled, his eyes simultaneously fixed on Ning Guang behind the traveler, and mouthed something to her.

Ningguang pursed her lips, understanding what she meant, and nodded in agreement.

That's right.

"the same as you."

She agreed.

There's no reason to refuse.

Although Xu Guang's trading partner was a traveler, she had to agree in order to build a good relationship with him.

It's a very simple principle: there are things that others don't want, but you can't refuse to give them to them.

Especially in the current situation.

Ningguang was thinking that if Oser's attack destroyed those Return Machines, she would have to protect Liyue Harbor behind her, even if it meant smashing down the Jade Pavilion.
