Chapter 32: A New Departure
"The life of an ordinary person? It's a good idea, to be honest, I'm afraid that you will have the will to have a mission, because such people are generally very tired, and life is full of ups and downs and twists and turns. ”
"Huh? What is this statement? ”
Burning Fire asked curiously.
"Maybe it's a unique perception of people in our world?"
Su Mu didn't dwell too much on this topic, but made a glass of berry juice for Ranhuo, handed it to her, and taught her how to use a straw.
"The ideas of people from the other world are really unique compared to the people of this world."
"The two of us are not much different in this regard, and we are both outsiders to the current Teyvat continent. It's just that you are from ancient times, and I am from another world. ”
"Why did the topic become so heavy and sad~ Let's change the topic, I have thought about what I promised to give you before."
Burning Fire took a sip of the sweet and sour berry juice, a unique taste that was indescribably delicious for her first time.
"Something?"
Su Mu cleaned up and asked curiously.
"Yes, you see that you first helped me retrieve my ancient memories, and then helped me save my family, and I have been thinking about what I can give back to you."
"To be honest, I'm looking forward to it."
Su Mu naturally guessed that the system wanted him to get the method of using the elements from the fire, but this thing was too precious, and he was still thinking about how to speak.
"As a person from another world, I think your use of the power of this world should be relatively poor. In the past, the way you attacked was also based on physics, and the effect of some energy attacks will be greatly reduced. According to what you said, the Heavenly One has now restricted the use of the elements by humans, and I think you should be very interested in the ancient ways of using the elements. ”
As soon as the words of the fire fell, Su Mu stood up directly excitedly, only listening to "Alas! He sat down with his head covered.
"Are you alright?"
Seeing Su Mu's painful and happy expression, Burning Fire was a little crying and laughing, she really couldn't understand why Su Mu was so happy.
But for Su Mu, this is what he needs most!
In ancient times, the gods in the heavens did not think of the subsequent development of human beings, so the use of elements at that time was very powerful.
The system only has an early warning function and a guidance function, and it doesn't allow him to really use the elements, and the way he uses the elements now is still based on stealing hilichurls.
Receiving the affirmation of Burning Fire, Su Mu clenched his fists tightly, he didn't expect that the elemental power that had been restricting him would make a breakthrough so quickly.
"If you can really use the elements, I must take you to the most beautiful places in various countries to play!"
Receiving the kindness offered by the fire, Su Mu immediately promised.
As a person from another world, Su Mu can vaguely feel the loneliness of the burning fire, and she has no relatives in the world, but she actually doesn't have a place to put her soul?
Su Mu is the person who Burning Fire saw in the prophecy of ancient times, if there is anyone in this world who can understand her a little, it is probably Su Mu.
The only foundation for her existence is actually from the ancient elemental use method and Mixin, and now telling Su Mu this method is actually equivalent to gambling her all.
If Su Mu is a scumbag, she will abandon her directly after using her, and she will have no choice.
Su Mu, who was keenly aware of this, immediately gave her an oath-like promise.
This is not love, just an agreement between two people who huddle together in another world to keep warm.
"Well, I'm looking forward to that day."
Hearing Su Mu's response, the fire-burning eyes smiled into crescent moons.
"Then I'd like to think about it, let's take a walk around Mondstadt first, and by the way, let you get acquainted with your body and improve your strength, and then go to the snowy mountains of Liyue when your strength is almost up. What do you think? ”
Su Mu has been wanting to visit Teyvat for a long time, and now the main quest is about to start.
Ying (The official main line is empty, and the branch line is Ying, so it's mainly Ying. And Paimon are almost in place, as if there's an invisible pusher who has all the pieces ready and waiting for the protagonist to appear.
"Strength...... I don't have a clue about this, and when I was absorbing the power of the leylines, I found that the rules were a little different from those of my time.
In order to improve the strength, it must be in line with the rules of the current era, and I don't know how to do this yet. ”
Speaking of the improvement of strength, Burning Fire looked embarrassed, this was a problem she had never thought of, and all the power that was originally used as a Flame Tree was invested in adjusting the body.
If you want to use your original strength, you must go step by step according to the rules of this era.
"I have some experience in this regard, and when the time comes to travel to Thuat, let's collect materials slowly."
Su Mu waved his hand to calm the fire.
After the two chatted for a long time, they went back to their tents and went to sleep with tiredness.
This night, Su Mu did not sleep peacefully, and his consciousness was pulled into a space in his sleep.
This space is bleak and empty, where countless colors of light circulate without any pattern to speak of.
"Sumu ......"
An electronically synthesized voice echoes through space, flickering and flickering away from where it came from.
"I thought you'd never speak."
At this moment, Su Mu's consciousness was unprecedentedly clear.
"Su Mu, I have no ill will towards you......"
The voice fluttered again.
"I won't forget those days in the Black Mine, but I want an explanation."
Su Mu's emotions at the moment are very complicated, the system has saved him more than once, and he naturally has special feelings for the system.
But it is often the betrayal of the people who care most about it that hurts the most.
"Su Mu, I need energy, energy that is not monitored by the Heavenly Principles."
The system explained.
"You always know what I'm thinking, and you can make simple predictions about what's going on in the world.
To be honest, this ability is beyond my comprehension.
You also know that I have always been on guard against you, and I will not let you be stronger than me, and if you can suppress me one day, I can't predict what will happen.
So I'll give you energy to replenish it, but only if I'm dominant. ”
Su Mu's conversation with the system is very straightforward, because the other party can catch his thoughts, and there is no point in concealing and lying.
"Can ......"
With Su Mu's promise, the table replied in an emotionless voice.
"Shouldn't you, then, tell me what you summoned me into this world for? What tasks await me? ”
"Become strong, Su Mu, you are very weak now, far from the strength to know the truth.
You have a long time to feel the world, to see, to feel, to think......
When the end comes, you will naturally understand your mission. ”
