Chapter 111: Albedo

It was a young boy with his off-white hair tied back and a smooth forehead. He wears a white trench coat with a hood, thick and warm.

He has metal armor on his shoulders and knees, and his arms are also covered with arm guards, so that he can fight in the first place in case of danger.

His temperament is quite good, even if he is in this evil scene, his expression is calm and calm, and he will not subconsciously make people think that he is conducting some kind of evil research, but like a noble young master who has strayed into it.

"Anyone?"

Seeing the young man standing in front of the huge heart, Jiang Bai's footsteps stopped.

He never thought that there were still people in such a place, and they didn't look very old.

Before Jiang Bai could ask who he was, he heard the young man's surprised opening, and his eyes were full of desire to explore.

"Hey, you have the breath of the sea of stars on you......"

Jiang Baitong shrunk, this was the first person to see through his identity as soon as they met.

This also made his self-protection mechanism attack, his body subconsciously tensed, and the atmosphere in the cave was a little tense for a while.

Perhaps realizing that his words were a bit out of place, the young man smiled apologetically and took the initiative to introduce himself.

"Hello, I'm the chief alchemist of the Knights of Favonius, and my name is Albedo."

"Knights of Favonius, what's that?"

Jiang Bai felt as if he had heard it somewhere, but it seemed to be heard by others when they were chatting, and he didn't have any specific impressions.

However, he had an impression of the word alchemist, and when Hu Tao took him to Bubulu to see a doctor, Baizhu mentioned that he could go to Mondstadt to find an alchemist who was more interested in the field of non-humans.

Although I don't know if this is the one Baizhu refers to, but the word [chief] is here, so it won't be bad.

"Don't you know?" Albedo was a little surprised, and looked at his outfit for a moment.

"Since you live in Liyue, it's no wonder you don't know about the Knights of Favonius."

There is no one in Mondstadt who does not know the Knights of Favonius, but if they are from other countries, it is difficult to say.

"I really don't know, my name is Jiang Bai, I currently live in Liyue, and I am a soul crosser in the Hall of the Dead."

Jiang Bai made a simple self-introduction, and did not forget to hang his name in the Afterlife Hall.

It's not that I don't think the name of the Afterlife Hall has any deterrent effect, but it is just to leave a basic impression for the first time, and it will be convenient to promote the business of the Afterlife Hall later.

He is already a quite successful part-time worker who will take the initiative to find customers on his own!

Albedo nodded, not asking what the Hall of the Dead was, he explained the duties of the Knights of Favonius:

"The Knights of Favonius is an organization that manages all aspects of Mondstadt, similar to Liyue's Millelith and General Affairs Division."

As soon as he said this, Jiang Bai also understood.

It is the official body that governs a country, and his identity is also officially certified.

With official identity and certification, even if he appeared in such a treacherous and dangerous place, it seemed normal.

He was about to speak, and when he asked what it was, Albedo spoke first.

"It's dangerous, it's polluted, it's not good for conversation, let's go out and talk!"

Even though a long time has passed, the pollution carried by the demon dragon has not been completely purified, and it is still pouring out of the heart.

If you stay here for too long, you can easily get contaminated.

"Oh, good."

Jiang Bai didn't have any knowledge of this place, just looked at the red-black fluid surging from his heart, and it didn't look like a good thing.

Albedo just came to check the situation here, and after making sure that it was still the same as before, there was no abnormality, and then he left this heart cave with Jiang Bai.

"What was that?" Jiang Bai asked curiously.

"That's the heart of the dragon Durin."

"Durin the Dragon?"

"The dragon that ravaged Mondstadt a long time ago was slain on the snowy mountains by Barbatos, the god of wind, and the dragon of the east wind."

"It turns out that this wreck belongs to a dragon......"

Jiang Bai looked up at the huge skeleton that lay across the valley, and finally knew what kind of creature it was.

"What about this red stone?" Jiang Bai pointed to the red ore on the ground.

"It's called [Deep Red Stone], and it is a strange crystal unique to the snow-capped mountains, which can bring people a short period of warmth."

"Why are there so many in that cave?"

Jiang Bai always felt that this crystallization was not so simple, it was as bright red as blood sprinkled on the ground.

"In a way, the [Crimson Stone] is related to the demon dragon Durin. When the demon dragon Durin died, his blood seeped into the leylines, and under the influence of the scorching dragon's blood, this strange crystallization was born in the snow-capped mountains. ”

Perhaps there were a lot of questions he wanted to ask Jiang Bai, and Albedo knew almost everything about Jiang Bai's doubts.

"Isn't this [Crimson Stone] very dangerous?"

"Why do you think so?" Albedo was surprised.

"The Demon Dragon, it sounds like a very dangerous creature, was killed by the gods in the end. According to common sense, doesn't the blood it leaves behind carry such things as resentment, pain, and karma? ”

As far as Jiang Bai knew, what Xiao cleaned up every day was the pollution and filth that was born from the residue of the demon god after his death.

Since the demon god is like this, then after the death of the demon dragon, it should be about the same, right?

Albedo shook his head slightly, "Durin is not an evil dragon. ”

He died without resentment, and naturally there was no such pollution.

"It's not an evil dragon, so why is it called a demon dragon, and it was killed by the wind god?"

Such a sentence completely aroused Jiang Bai's curiosity, and he was eager to know what was going on.

"It's complicated...... Albedo lowered his long eyelashes, hiding the complicated emotions in his eyes, and he didn't want to say more.

The secrecy in this is not suitable for a person who has just met, even if this person has the breath of the sea of stars.

Jiang Bai is very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable!

It's like a delicious meal in front of you, but it's locked in a glass frame, and you can only salivate at it, but you can't eat it.

"Can't you say that?" Jiang Bai wanted to struggle.

"It's complicated, and I can't explain it for a while."

"Okay......"

Jiang Bai was very uncomfortable, but whether it was Albedo's own rights or not, he couldn't interfere.

I can only find a way to find out the secret.

"It's too cold here, let's go to my camp first, I have a lot of questions about you."

"Okay."

Jiang Bai nodded and followed him forward.

Albedo answered him so many questions, he naturally couldn't just pat his ass and leave, besides, he was also curious about why Albedo could feel the aura of the sea of stars on his body.

What kind of breath is the breath of the sea of stars? Why is it felt?
