Chapter 380: Just Life! (5k) (Monday update)
After an exchange,
Wang Daoyi and Ying did not convince each other,
Ying felt that these Fatui were good people who had come to help Liyue, and that they should not be forgotten like this.
Wang Daoyi believes that the opposition at the top has caused a difference in positions, and these Fatui have changed from 'friendly forces' to enemies, and it has always been a stupid thing to help the enemy.
However, Wang Daoyi finally gave Ying a solution.
"In this case, you go and find those Fatui, if they are willing to break away from the Solstice system, give up their identity as the Fatui, and give up their current position, then they will no longer be my enemies, and I will naturally be able to help them."
"That's it?" Ying was a little surprised,
After arguing for so long just now, Wang Daoyi was unwilling to help, and now, as long as those Fatui give up their identity as Fatui, Wang Daoyi can make a move?
This contradictory transformation made Ying a little unable to adapt.
As the king said,
Ying is a always neutral being, it is difficult for her to understand the question of 'position', and in her eyes, she can only see 'right and wrong' and 'good and evil'.
"Okay, I'll go to them in a moment, and if they're willing to do what you say, then you're going to get them out." Ying looked at Wang Daoyi's eyes and said seriously.
Wang Dao nodded a little, and replied equally seriously: "Of course, when did I lie to you?" ”
Ying was stunned for a moment, although Wang Daoyi often became a riddler and spoke halfway, but it didn't seem that he had deceived himself.
So, Ying laughed happily, in her opinion, those Fatui have been saved,
With Wang Daoyi's position in Liyue, rescuing these Fatui and returning them safely to Solstice is not a big problem at all.
But
Wang Daoyi looked at Ying's happy appearance and shook his head secretly,
He did not think that the Fatui would accept his demands,
Abandoning the issue of position itself means that those Fatui will commit treason, and this choice of treason vs death, most of the Fatui will choose death.
Although Wang Daoyi often looked down on the Fatui and knew that there were many problems within the Fatui, the Fatui's belief in the Ice Empress was also unquestionable.
If you want these fatui to reveal some secrets, it is estimated that you can only torture them.
And to ask them to give up their position and betray the winter, ha, difficult!
Therefore, how happy Ying is smiling now, how disappointed she will be later.
End the conversation,
Wang Daoyi, Ying, Paimon, and the invisible Nahida return to camp,
Ying is the character who says and does,
After dealing with two mouthfuls at random, he offered to go to those fatui,
The faces of the surrounding Huishan Hall employees were a little strange, but they didn't say much,
Wang Daoyi has already agreed to Ying, so naturally he will not refuse.
The group set off again, led by Ying, to the last stronghold of the Fatui.
on the road
"The Fatui have lost their supplies, and when I met them, they were starving to death."
Ying introduced Wang Daoyi to some basic information about the Fatui who were stranded underground, including but not limited to their material situation, physical condition, and mental state.
Wang Daoyi just nodded indifferently,
On the other hand, Nahida, who was invisible, looked at Ying with some curiosity, as if she wanted to see through a foreign 'son of man'.
This existence is mysterious to Nahida.
He, who holds the authority of wisdom, cannot see through this girl either,
It seemed that she was filled with fog, covering everything on Ying's body.
At that time, when Wang Daoyi came down with Nahida,
The moment Nahida saw Ying, he had a vague premonition that he couldn't meet Ying.
His encounter with her has taken place, but His entanglement with her should not begin here.
"She is a man of destiny, Daoyi."
Nahida's voice sounded in Wang Daoyi's mind.
"What do you see, Nahida?"
Wang Daoyi responded to Nahida's words in his mind.
"Fate! Encounters, entanglements, the fate of countless people walks with her, she is a person who is destined, and more, I can't see through. ”
"Fate is the ultimate knowledge, and now I can't decipher it."
In the back of her mind, Nahida's soft voice rang out again.
Wang Daoyi nodded slightly, and responded to Nahida in his mind: "Is that so?" Yinghe Kong is the people who have crossed the sea of stars, they have brought accidents and variables to this world, and it is normal that they cannot decipher their fate. ”
For Ying, or rather, for Yingyi and Kong, the more Wang Daoyi understands, the more he feels that something is wrong.
From the most basic things,
Teyvat has three realms, the realm of light, the realm of humanity and the realm of nothingness, and the name of [Ying] can correspond to [Light Realm]; And the name [Void] can correspond to [Void Boundary].
These two [sons of men], even the basic names can correspond to the Three Realms of Teyvat, if there is nothing in them, Wang Daoyi will never believe it.
Therefore, there is a reason why these two people are the protagonists of [Genshin Impact], and it is not simply that the two Advent Beings have become the protagonists.
[Ying] and [Kong] have deeper secrets, and the title of "Son of Man" may represent some of their deep secrets.
It is these secrets that make Wang Daoyi and [Ying] particularly concerned,
He can carry Raiden Shogun's knife for Ying, in addition to treating [Ying] as a friend, he may not have the meaning of exploring the secrets of the depths of [Ying].
"Huh? Daoyi, what are you thinking? ”
Walking in the claustrophobic mine tunnel, Ying was still talking about the Fatui, but as she spoke, she found that Wang Daoyi didn't seem to be listening to her, and couldn't help asking.
Hearing Ying's call, Wang Dao came back to his senses and shook his head slightly at Ying: "It's nothing, I think of something important." ”
"Something important? Need my help? Ying raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Wang Daoyi, and asked.
"No, although it is important, it is not urgent, and it will naturally understand when the time comes." Wang Daoyi showed a hint of a smile, looking at Ying, he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Ying felt a little strange in her heart, and felt that Wang Daoyi's eyes looking at her just now were a little meaningful, but she shook her head slightly, and she didn't care, or rather, she was used to it.
This kind of meaningful look, whether it was Dainsleif, Zhongli, or Wendy, she had seen it all in them.
Now there is one more king, and it is not a big deal at all.
Holding the blue lumen stone in his hand, Yingying led everyone all the way, and from time to time purple-black filth overflowed from the surroundings in the passage,
However, with the power of the lumenstone, these purple-black filths will be quickly removed.
Feel the polluting power contained in the purple-black filth, and the purifying light contained in the lumen stone,
Wang Daoyi already had some guesses in his heart,
Those purple-black filth are undoubtedly the polluting power from the abyss,
And the lumen stone, this kind of treasure mine that can remove filth power, the power contained in it should be the pure power of the light realm.
Only the pure power of the Light Realm could easily dispel these forbidden filths from the abyss.
In the Three Realms of Teyvat,
The confrontation between the Light Realm and the Void Realm, that is, the confrontation between the Elemental Realm and the Abyss Realm, has existed since the birth of Teyvat, and the confrontation between purple-black pollution and lumenstone can only be regarded as one of the manifestations,
And the most special, and the latest to appear in the human world, as well as the human world power, Wang Daoyi has no more clues, however, in his conjecture, the seven consuls of Teyvat who are alive today may have something to do with the power of the human world.
The gods have gilded the contours of their desires with seven rays of light to show that their authority is within reach! 】
This desire to be gilded with brilliance by the gods may have something to do with the power of the human world.
As for how to verify this idea. Wang Dao felt that after he ascended to the throne, he would naturally understand.
Once again through the narrow passage,
Ascend a relatively high mine tunnel and enter a relatively open cave,
Under Ying's leadership, Wang Daoyi soon saw a small group of Fatui.
"Anton." Ying and Paimon waved at the Fatui over there.
Their voices quickly attracted the attention of the Fatui, who took up their weapons, looked this way, and quickly lifted their guard when they realized that it was the Queen.
"It's Traveler and Paimon, how did you get back? Could it be that the people above have made peace with Liyue? The tall Fatui soldiers looked at Ying and Paimon, as well as Wang Daoyi, who was standing on the side, with expectant and inquiring eyes.
Not only the Fatui man who spoke, but also the three Fatui soldiers beside him also showed expectant eyes.
Unfortunately, Ying shook her head slightly, "No, the Fatui and Liyue are still hostile. ”
"That's right," the Fatui man looked a little disappointed, but quickly picked himself up again, "Is there something about you coming here this time?" If it's to send supplies, we don't have anything to exchange with you for the time being, we haven't finished the food you gave us last time, and we don't have anything more to tell you if you want to exchange information. ”
After coming into contact with these Fatui, Ying thinks that they are not bad people, but poor outcasts, so she leaves them some food, and these Fatui also take out some savings and exchange them with Ying.
"No, this time I'm not here to exchange information, I've found a friend who can take you out." Ying opened her mouth to explain, explaining her intentions.
"Get out? Are you sure? ”*4
The Fatui exclaimed that they knew their plight, and that if the people above hadn't made peace with Liyue, then their only end up would be to die here, and it would be impossible for them to be rescued.
The people of Liyue won't save them, and their commander on the Solstice side will probably give up on them long ago.
So when they heard Ying say that they had found someone and could save them out, these Fatui immediately reacted.
"Well, this is Wang Daoyi, and he's very good in Liyue. identity, as long as he speaks, he will definitely be able to save you out. Ying nodded, then pointed to Wang Daoyi and introduced the Fatui team.
If it were the Fatui stationed in Liyue, they would probably recognize Wang Daoyi when they saw it.
And these fatui, who were abandoned under the stratum abyss, followed Ying's introduction, looked at Wang Daoyi, and there were some doubts in their eyes.
Although Wang Daoyi is a talented person and has a sense of nobility in temperament, they still don't believe it when it comes to saying that they can be easily rescued.
"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't trust your words, but that at what cost? What is the price we need to pay? The Fatui man was a little vigilant in his eyes, although he knew that he was already in a state of waiting for death, he still didn't want to believe that pie would fall from the sky.
A Liyue man came and said he could save them, and they didn't believe it at any cost.
Ying looked at Wang Daoyi, and seeing that he didn't mean to speak, she organized her words and spoke to the Fatui team, "As long as you are willing to give up your identity as the [Fatui] and no longer serve Solstice, then you are no longer Liyue's enemies, and Daoyi can take you out."
"Give up the identity of the Fatui?" The Fatui was stunned for a moment, and then a look appeared on his face.
"I'm so sorry, Traveler, I know you're doing it for our good, but. We can't agree to this condition. The Fatui decisively rejected Ying's proposal.
Then he looked at the team members beside him: "Refusal is my own intention, if any of you are willing to give up your [Fatui] identity, you can promise the Traveler, no one else will know." ”
It means that even if they give up the identity of the [Fatui], the only people who know it are those who are present, they will not leak the secret, and the renunciation will naturally not be liquidated.
The faces of the three team members were slightly angry: "Anton, what are you talking about?" What do you think we are, our company has sixty-four people, and now there are only four of us left, even if all of them die here, our company will not betray the Empress. ”
"As much as we would love to evacuate, if the conditions for evacuation are betrayal, then we are allowed to refuse."
"Yes, although I hate those executive officers who have given up on us, it is impossible to make me turn my back on the noble Ice Empress."
The reaction of the three people was greater than the other, but they all chose to reject Ying.
Ying's face was a little puzzled, she didn't understand, when she met these people before, their biggest wish was to evacuate here,
But why, she found someone to come over and gave them hope, but these Fatui chose to refuse.
Ying was a little anxious: "However, if you give up this opportunity, you may really die below." ”
The Chasm is already recovering, and sooner or later the Department of General Affairs and the Millelith Army will clear it here,
If these people were still here at that time, being cleaned up was their only result,
If they were ordinary Fatui, then Ying wouldn't feel it at all, and might help the Millelith clean them up.
However, these people originally came in to help with the investigation, and the friendly army inexplicably became enemies, and then was cleaned up, how can Ying accept this kind of thing?
"Ha, if the price is something else, we will definitely pack up our things and leave with you immediately, but, traveler, everyone has their own perseverance, and this perseverance is something more important than life."
"For the most noble dreams of the Empress of Ice, even if we often walk in the moonless night, often trek in the gilded desert, often feel the biting hostility in the dark, and often dream of our lover in a distant homeland, no matter how difficult it is, it cannot extinguish the pale fire that often burns in our breasts, nor can it break our faith!"
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Traveler."
After the Fatui man said this, he looked at his comrades-in-arms,
Raise your right fist and hit yourself in the chest,
[We are wounded wolves who have been betrayed by the whole world,
We will eventually build a new world that no one will turn their backs on.
Clothed in a garment as bright as the sun,
We come from a snowy country like silver,
Blow the trumpet to announce His Majesty's majesty. 】
The rest of the team members looked sad, but they stretched out their right hands together,
They made the same hammer-chested etiquette, keeping up with the slogan of the Fatui Great:
[If you are also burdened with dreams that are not contained, and wounds that cannot be erased,
Unwilling to end the day, always angry at false promises,
Just look up at the white phosphorus-colored star, which is the banner of our waiting;
Then join us and let the boots shake the earth like thunder.
May those who follow us to the White Night Pole Star will never abandon us.
May those who go to the darkest places with us create a new world together.
Know that the destruction of everything will be the beginning of a new order.
At the end of the destruction will be the dawn of the unsullied. 】
[After shouting the high slogans, these Fatui seem to have a dead heart, and no longer communicate with everyone, nor pay attention to Ying's persuasion. 】
"Why? I don't understand, why should they choose death if they can be rescued if they just say give up? ”
After leaving some food for the Fatui, Ying left the cave where the Fatui lived,
After walking a distance, Ying Cai said a little sadly, and then she looked at Wang Daoyi: "Daoyi, in fact, you knew from the beginning that they would refuse, right?" ”
Wang Daoyi nodded naturally: "Yes, I knew from the beginning that although most of the Fatui are not good people, if you talk about their belief in the Ice Empress, I think it is worth affirming." ”
"Giving up the identity of [Fatui] is equivalent to betraying the Ice Empress, this kind of thing, even death, it is difficult for them to make a choice."
Ying's expression was a little uncomfortable: "Could it be that faith is more important than life?" ”
In Ying's view, for the sake of ethereal beliefs, giving up the chance to live is no matter how you look at it. It's a pity.
Life should be above all else, not used as a price for faith.
"Oh, I can't answer this question either, faith and life are not things of concrete value."
"If it were my believers, when they encountered this kind of thing, I would advise them to give up their faith and choose to live, but they may not necessarily follow my advice, and they may even choose to commit suicide when they hear my advice."
"There is never anything good or bad about faith, only firm and unfirm."
"Obviously, those Fatui of the Ninth Company, they are very strong in their faith in the Ice Empress."
"Just a few lives aren't enough for them to give up their faith in the Ice Empress."
Wang Daoyi said calmly,
He has no feelings or disdain for the choice of the Ninth Company's Fatui,
That's it, he believes, if he were the people of the sand under his command, many people will make the same choice,
Faith is never something that can be described as right or wrong, nor can it be measured by other standards.
"Huh? Your believers? Ying suddenly caught a word, "Also, how do you know that they are from the Ninth Company, I don't seem to have told you, right?" ”
