South of Shimen, north of Liyuan

It is a place where various water systems converge, and it is extremely busy with ships and cargo. It's just that the tide rises and falls indefinitely, flooding many houses in the past, and because of the flood of monsters, the Millelith Army can't dispatch people to solve the monsters, and under the influence of these many factors, there is only one trade route left here, and few people settle here.

Of course, this is just an external statement, and the deeper reason is that Su Mu knows in his heart that because of thousands of years of conquest, Xiao sometimes can't control the karma in his body, and the karma left behind will cause the people he comes into contact with to go crazy and die.

For the safety of human beings, the Millelith Army here has always been very scarce, and most of the monsters lured out have also been disposed of by Xiao.

To the west of the stone bridge in the northern part of Ogihua Prefecture, a hilichurl tribe gathered here, and the hilichurls of this tribe were covered in black gas, more dangerous and more aggressive than the hilichurls in the past.

"Huh? Are there humans? ”

Xiao vanished in an instant, and many screams rang out from the hilichurl tribe.

When Su Mu arrived, the last monster was turning into debris and disappearing.

"If you can save this human being who has been corrupted by karma, it will also be considered a merit."

Xiao, who was standing on the tree at some point, said faintly to the person in the cage in the distance.

Su Mu looked at the man who was eroded by karma, the green tendons on his body exploded with anger, his eyes were white, and his mouth let out a meaningful roar, where is there a human appearance, even if it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a zombie.

Walking forward, Su Mu grabbed the human and reached out of the wooden cage to hurt his arm, no matter how the other party struggled, he couldn't shake a bit.

A trace of black mist-like karma invaded Su Mu's body along the man's hand, and he saw a slight red light on Su Mu's body, and those karma were actually absorbed.

"There's something unreasonable about that."

Xiao who stopped here looked at Su Mu condescendingly, he thought that Su Mu would gradually turn into an irrational monster like a man corrupted by karma.

Xiao was ready to take out the monster when the time came, so that it would no longer harm other humans and follow his own contract.

I didn't expect him to be able to absorb karma, but at a slower pace.

"If you absorb my karma at this rate, I'm afraid it will take me another time to build a Liyue Kingdom."

Xiao estimated the speed at which Su Mu absorbed karma with his own understanding, but unfortunately the other party was only a mortal and could not have such a long life.

After an hour, Su Mu finally absorbed the karma on the man's body, and his body actually had a feeling of swelling in his abdomen, and soon he turned white This is the feeling transmitted back by the system.

"Since you are not afraid of karma, just leave, don't spread the word about this matter, don't make people's livelihood unstable, I will deal with this person, don't remember it."

Xiao looked at the man in the cage, and the figure disappeared in an instant, no matter how many times he looked at it, he felt incredible.

Su Mu, who was sweating profusely, sat on the side, and the sequelae of absorbing karma slowly manifested itself, the body temperature slowly rose, and a tingling pain came.

"What the hell is going on!"

Su Mu felt like a flame was burning his bones in his body, and the pain that penetrated deep into his bone marrow made his face contort and shrink into a ball.

"The karma itself is the residual energy of the demon god who died in battle, rashly touching the ecstasy and destroying the bones, the karma on your body has been dealt with, but it is just a sequelae, as long as you hold on for a few minutes."

Text popped up in Su Mu's consciousness.

Just by touching a little karma, Su Mu was in such unbearable pain, Xiao had been plagued by karma for thousands of years, you can see how uncomfortable it was.

Su Mu gritted his teeth and held on to the bone-eating pain, and a fragment of karma appeared in front of his eyes, and the blood-colored remnant sun in the picture, and the unknown plants and trees decayed silently under the reflection of the remnant sun, which was different from the Teyvat he was familiar with.

"**Dao**Why?"

As soon as the picture turned, a young Morax appeared in the picture, with an off-white hood covering his head, showing a youthful atmosphere.

Young Morax seemed to be conversing with other creatures, and his words were staccato and incomprehensible, with not one word out of ten that could be heard.

"**** The road is treacherous, you should think twice.

Why?

How is it?

Why?

Don't do it for the sake of doing it, abandon the basics! ”

The words were deafening, and even though Morax was talking to others, it sounded like asking Su Mu himself.

"Why? How is it? Why? ”

Su Mu muttered and repeated this sentence, as if something was white, and it seemed that nothing was white.

Su Mu naturally didn't know who Morax was asking or what he was asking.

But he quickly remembered his situation in the continent of Tewat.

"Why did you come to Teyvat?"

Su Mu couldn't answer, because he didn't know the reason now.

"How do you go down the continent of Teyvat?"

Su Mu wanted to answer, but he couldn't say the words when the words came to his lips.

Is it really just about improving your strength and walking around Twart with fire?

Su Mu hesitated, the ambition that had been educated by the Tewath continent was small, but it had not disappeared.

"What is the purpose of traveling on Teyvat?"

Is it a strength increase?

Is it to explore the mysteries of Teyvat?

Want to see the world beyond Tewat?

It seems to be both, and it doesn't seem to be......

The pain in his body dissipated somehow, and Su Mu headed towards Shimen in confusion, thinking about these three questions in his brain.

From the moment he met Barbatos, Su Mu's original plan was in vain, he was not the twin of fate, nor was he the darling of heaven and earth.

This made him arrogant and have a trace of qi hidden in his heart.

Even if he doesn't have Paimon;

Even if you can't be entangled in fate;

Even if you are not the protagonist of the stage;

He always wanted to stand in front of the Seven Gods one day, and now in front of the Heavenly Principle Sustainer.

Tell them out loud.

I'm no worse than anyone else!

Even if you are born as a human being, even if you don't have the ability of the Twins of Destiny.

I, Su Mu, can naturally find a way to be on an equal footing with you, and I can even peek into that God's Throne!

Thunder stirred up in the sky, torrential rain poured down.

Su Mu looked at the false sky unyieldingly, the rain washed over his body, but it couldn't bend his straight back.

A flash of thunder and lightning flashed, and the Vision of God with a yellow light fell from the sky and fell towards Su Mu.

In the Liyue Harbor Commentary Garden, Zhongli, a guest of the Health Hall, was listening to a book and tasting tea, when he suddenly turned his head to look north, and then waved his tea lightly with his right hand, and a condensed Eye of the Rock God dissipated.

On the statue of the Seven Heavens not far away, the rock of the statue shimmered with a yellow light, and then went out again.

Su Mu was stunned by such a vision, and then continued to walk towards the territory of Mondstadt.

Maybe it was rain, or maybe it was other reasons, Su Mu couldn't hold it anymore when he saw the fire.

He smiled and said, "I'm back." Then he fainted again.
