Chapter 336: At least I won't follow in the footsteps of my hometown
"There are no gods there, only us who belong to humans."
"We are constantly fighting, calculating, and killing each other for various reasons, and finally we bring everyone to the ...... destruction"
"I watched it destroy in our own hands but could not do anything about it, I became a wanderer, wandering in the sea of stars......"
The clouds in the sky dissipated at some point, and the stars shone with a shallow glow.
Jiang Bai looked at Bai Yuan in his hand, his expression was complicated and abnormal, "[Bai Yuan] is from my hometown, it is the crystallization of the highest technology of that planet, in addition to Bai Yuan, there are many things, they were all created to adapt to the sea of stars......"
Things in the past were too complicated, and Jiang Bai was only an insignificant member of the dispute, but he was lucky to survive.
The mark on his left arm, and Bai Yuan, was his only connection to his hometown.
"I'm sorry for reminding you of something sad." Albedo was apologetic.
"It doesn't matter, I'm a cold-blooded person sometimes." Jiang Bai smiled indifferently, "Maybe it's the disappointment completely, the so-called hometown, except for regret, there is no feeling anymore." ”
He looked in the distance in the direction of the Death Hall, and smiled slightly.
"I still like it here, there are gods here, and the gods love the world, and there are gods under their control, at least they won't follow in the footsteps of my hometown."
Moreover, he found his second home.
If you have a family, you don't need to wander anymore.
And he is no longer a passerby.
Albedo didn't speak, he hadn't experienced Jiang Bai's past, so naturally he couldn't judge.
Moreover, Jiang Bai did not need comfort.
Jiang Bai replied to the initial question, "Bai Yuan was created to adapt to the sea of stars, there are many kinds of energy in the sea of stars, Bai Yuan can absorb the energy that can be used and store it by himself, but he can't store the elemental power......"
This is also something that can't be helped, after all, Bai Yuan was specially created for the Star Sea, not for a fixed planet.
Jiang Bai manipulated Bai Yuan to turn into an armguard, and a light screen appeared in the arm guard that kept flashing like a poor signal reception, and could only cover the arm.
"Actually, Bai Yuan's shield was able to protect my whole body at first, but it broke down later......"
In Teyvat, he has a rock shield, and Bai Yuan's shield is of little significance, but before coming to Teyvat, this shield has helped him prevent many life and death crises.
It's just that the shield has a limit, and after several consecutive overloads, it breaks......
"But fortunately, Bai Yuan was originally created when the world was on the verge of destruction, and the self-healing function was specially set up, although this self-healing time will be very long, but people who don't have a home can only rely on self-healing......"
Jiang Bai gently stroked the armgear on his hand, if it was before, it would be inevitable to be sad when he mentioned these things, but now, Bai Yuan's slightly cool touch made him feel very calm.
Albedo added some wood to the fire to make it burn more vigorously.
"Speaking of home, before I came to Mondstadt, the teacher's place was home to me......"
"Also, for those who gave birth to you from alchemy, the creator is your mother, and the place where your mother is naturally home."
Jiang Bai nodded matter-of-factly, and the topic was not marginal.
"Speaking of which, how long has it been since you were born?"
Albedo thought for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know, I should be a few hundred years old." I was so immersed in my research that I couldn't feel the passage of time......"
"How many hundred years old......" Jiang Bai sighed, and suddenly remembered the void.
He had a gut feeling that Sora's real age wasn't as young as he looked.
Perhaps, like Albedo, it has solidified time?
"I don't know how big the empty is, I don't look like I'm an adult, maybe I'm thousands of years old......"
"Speaking of him, what about you?" Albedo looked at Jiang Bai, who couldn't tell his specific age.
Whether it was Jiang Bai or Kong, he couldn't judge their age from their physical condition and bone age.
"Me? Surely he is still a young man! Jiang Bai resolutely refused to admit that he was old.
Albedo smiled and didn't refute.
"By the way, what kind of person is your master who came to Indot?"
Albedo looked reminiscing, "Master, she'......"
At some point, snowflakes began to fall outside the cave.
This night, Jiang Bai and Albedo chatted a lot.
About the past, about the present, about the future.
The past has passed, and no one can define the future, and the only thing that can be done is to live the present.
The flames snapped and crackled, and the leaping flames shone on the uncalm faces of the two.
Those secrets that are buried deep in the heart and never spoken are revealed at this time, as if they have found a listener.
Albedo looked at the wind and snow outside the cave that had blown again at some point, as if he had seen the demon dragon buried deep in the snowy mountains through the wind and snow.
"If one day, out of control, I'm going to destroy Mondstadt and everything...... I hope you can stop me......"
"Your words are unlucky, and the flag cannot be erected."
Jiang Bai took out a pot of wine and handed it to him, and under the reflection of the flames, his expression was extremely serious.
"Even if you lose control one day, I'll do everything I can to get you back to your senses - it's a promise from a friend."
Albedo's eyebrows were soft, and his eyes were crooked.
"Come, drink."
"Hmm."
The spicy wine entered the throat, and the two people who were not drunk were a little drunk in this snowstorm.
......
The next day, the trio officially set out for the cave where the hilichurls were located.
Jiang Bai remembered that when he was looking for the way up the mountain, he accidentally stumbled into the interior of the mountain and happened to encounter Xiaoshi.
"That place is inside the Starlight Cave, do you know any shortcuts to get in?" Jiang Bai took the map and looked at Albedo.
Even though he has been to the snowy mountains, he is still unfamiliar with the roads of the snowy mountains.
"Well, follow me."
Albedo puts the hat on Klee and puts her on his shoulder.
The wind and snow outside were a bit heavy, but fortunately, it didn't have much effect on them with the Vision.
Jiang Bai followed Albedo all the way forward, and braved the wind and snow to come to a place where there were many ruins of Denier, and in the gap of the fallen stone pillars, there was a road leading to a cave in the mountain.
When he came to the cave, Jiang Bai was familiar with the road.
He walked down as he noticed the icicles that fell from time to time in the sky above.
It wasn't until I reached the bottom of the cave that after a few roundabouts, the path I had been there came into view.
Jiang Bai said to Albedo and Klee, "You wait for me here." ”
The hilichurls only knew him, and it would be better for him to let him know first in order to prevent them from attacking Albedo and Klee.
