After the Lantern Festival, Paimon and Ying never went out at home, and even had their meals brought over, and the reason was that they were holding their mobile phones and calling "Genshin Impact II."

"Wow, why does she update a version of the tassel every day, so there is no time to go out." Paimon couldn't help but complain as he held the game console, but the movements in his hands didn't stop.

"Then you go out, I won't stop you." Glowing glanced at Paimon and said lightly.

"Hmm, it's not like today's plot has been updated to Sumeru, I want to see what happens later." Paimon said, scratching his head.

"Me too, the plot of Genshin Impact II is roughly the same as what we experienced, but my presence in this game is too low, just like a marionette, led by Paimon inside." Speaking of this, Ying glanced at Paimon next to him again.

"Paimon, you say, if this world didn't have tassels, wouldn't I be like in the game?"

"This, this." Hearing Ying's words, Paimon's eyes flickered, and he was a little afraid to look into Ying's eyes.

"Actually, there is a reason for this, listen to me explain it to you slowly."

"Okay, I see, you don't have to say it." Ying interrupted Paimon.

Paimon: "."

"Huh? There is a commission, or the main line. Ying, who was playing the game, suddenly noticed a golden exclamation mark appear in her sight.

"What's the main line?" Paimon wondered.

"It's the Demon God mission, this mission should be about the Chasm." Ying thought for a moment and said.

"Strata Chasm? No way, reality is not a game. Paimon spoke.

Ying listened to Paimon's words and couldn't help but complain, "Come on, Teyvat is still more of a game than a game, and I'm now discovering why this world is wrong." ”

Paimon: "."

"If you say it's a normal world, how can all this be explained? There are also elemental reactions, and the damage multiplier is still fixed. Ying continued.

"But, but we're real, we're not characters in the game." Paimon hurriedly explained.

Ying replied, "I know you are real, but this world is false, which is why this kind of thing happens. ”

"Hmm." Paimon scratched her head, which she couldn't deny.

Seeing Paimon scratching his head, Ying also knew a lot of information, and she changed the subject and said, "Let's go, let's go and finish the main line of the Chasm first, and then see when Sumeru will be opened." ”

"Why don't we play for a while and then go?" Paimon whispered.

Ying directly refused: "No, it's still important to have the main line in reality, besides, I don't know when the main line of Sumeru will go, let's finish the plot of the Chasm first, and then come back to play, isn't it?" ”

"Well, well, listen to you." Paimon put the game console away and said with some discomfort.

Paimon said to Ying, who was about to leave, "But the tassel is really powerful, and it can actually deduce the future." ”

Ying opened his mouth and said, "After all, it is a character that is not in Genshin Impact II., and presumably tassels are equivalent to us being the same as the protagonist and Paimon in Genshin Impact II." ”

"Hmm" Paimon scratched his head and didn't continue.

After the two of them receive the mission from Catherine, the rest of the series of events is like completing the plot again, and this sense of déjà vu of taking one step at a time makes Paimon and Ying feel very uncomfortable.

Even the people she meets, the conversations that take place are no different from those in Genshin Impact II, and Ying feels like a puppet being dominated at this time, although she knows what will happen next, but she still has to follow this process.

"It's weird." Paimon shrank next to Ying and whispered.

Ying replied lightly, "Isn't that what you want?" ”

"No, no, I didn't think so, and there are other things I can't tell you right now, but none of this really has anything to do with us." Paimon shook his head.

"So you mean it's all tassel-controlled?" Ying asked.

Paimon replied with some uncertainty, "But, maybe, right?" ”

"Alright, after we get rid of this blue mechanism, let's go down." Ying's footsteps stopped, and he said as he looked at the blue spherical object above his head bound by a few blue rays of light.

"This, is it really going to be the same as the one inside?" Paimon wondered.

Ying replied: "Decryption, because I already knew it before, although the reality is much more spectacular than the game, but it's still the same in general." ”

"However, there is no shadow of an Abyss Apostle here, how could an Abyss Apostle suddenly appear?" Paimon continued.

"We'll find out when we activate the three mechanisms."

After speaking, Ying walked towards the place where the three blue rays of light emanated.

After a textbook decryption, when the third mechanism was activated, the Abyss Apostle appeared in front of Ying again.

"Paimon, what do you say?" Ying looked at the Abyss Apostle that suddenly appeared in front of her and said to Paimon.

Paimon: "Hmm~"

Paimon was a little dumbfounded, do you want to cooperate like this, just when the third mechanism is activated, you suddenly appeared.

"Fall for me!"

After Ying enchanted his own rock knot green, he picked up the sword and slashed at the abyss apostle in front of him, the abyss apostle Ying who didn't have any collection value didn't want to spend more time entangled with it, and added the buff directly to the sword in seconds, after having the holy attribute, the shield that made the abyss apostle difficult to entangle in the game was like paper paste under Ying's sword, and it broke when it was poked.

"That's it, that's it?" Paimon asked in disbelief as he looked at the Abyss Apostle with a sword.

"Or else? Do you want to find an ice elemental and a companion of the grass element to break the shield? Yingrong replied expressionlessly.

Hearing Ying's words, Paimon scratched his head and said, "Well, isn't it that the Apostle of the Water Abyss in Genshin Impact II is too difficult, only the broken shield of the ice element and the grass element is comfortable, and the other elements are running around, and it is annoying." ”

"It's reality, not a game." Ying said lightly.

Hearing Ying's words, Paimon couldn't help but complain, "But, didn't you say that this is also a game world?" ”

"It's a game-like fantasy world, but I can feel that I'm real, so where I am is reality is." Ying replied.

Paimon: "."

You're amazing, you're right, I don't even want to refute you, although what you say does make sense.

"That's going to fall." Ying said as she looked at the blue orb that was constantly gathering energy.

As soon as Ying's words fell, the gravitational pull that was pulling the blue ball of light suddenly dissipated, and the heavy blue ball of light fell down heavily.

Rumble~

A loud bang resounded through the Chasm, causing Paimon and Ying, who had known about it, to quickly cover their ears before that.

"Let's go, let's jump." After Ying finished speaking, she jumped directly into the pit smashed by the blue ball of light.

Paimon shouted at Ying, who had already jumped, "Hey, wait for me!" ”

Ying's figure fell quickly in the pit, and when it was about to land, Yingying summoned her wings and stabilized her body in midair.

When she landed, she walked towards the cliff not far away, and saw a scene that was more terrifying and uncomfortable than the game screen depicted.

After Paimon landed, he flew towards Ying's location, looking at the scene in the distance and exclaiming, "This is really a city!" ”

"Moreover, it's still airy, upside down."

Ying said with a shocked face: "It is indeed a shocking sight."

Paimon shrunk his neck and continued, "Well, I feel weird, the atmosphere here is so uncomfortable, just like the filthy reverse idol I met before. ”

"It's weird, it's upside down, and there's some shocking feeling."

At this moment, Ying noticed a wave of energy behind her, and said lightly: "Dainsleif, you appeared in time. ”

Dainsleif: ."

"I didn't expect to meet you here."

Looking at Ying, who was facing away from him, Dainsleif thought of the bad memories he had with the traveler, and he couldn't help but cover his forehead.

Dainsleif's gaze at Ying, who was standing quietly not far away with his back to him, gave him the illusion that the person in front of him was the one who dominated the abyss.

"Long time no see, Dain," Paimon beckoned to Dainsleif, "but why are you in the Chasm?" ”

"The Chasm... Is this beneath the Chasm, a place I've never set foot in... I see. Hearing Paimon's words, Dainsleif came back from his trance and muttered.

"There's something I want to ask you." Ying turned around and said to Dainsleb with a blank face.

Dainsleifb coughed lightly and replied, "The meeting and separation were a bit hasty, and I can understand your feelings. ”

"You can't understand my mood at this time." Listening to Dainsleif's words, Ying smiled at him and shook his head.

Dainsleif looked at Ying with a puzzled look and asked, "What?" ”

Ying looked at the purple filth in the distance, and said excitedly: "Do you know, I am very happy and excited at this time, this is the paradise of energy." ”

Dainsleif: "??? ”

"Ying, what are you talking about?" Paimon couldn't help but complain when he heard Ying's words.

"Ahem, isn't this to liven up the atmosphere." Ying replied with a smile on her face.

Dainsleif listened to Ying's words, and said with a smile: "Ahem, the traveler's method of enlivening the atmosphere is really a little nervous. ”

Dainsleif suddenly thought of something, and said to Ying, "By the way, after the eyes of the first cultivator were taken away by the gods you know well last time, there is no need to worry about it falling into the hands of the abyss until you find out the true face of the so-called Destiny Loom Project. ”

Ying watched the plot be corrected again, her eyes flickered, and she said to Dainsleif, "In that case, then you can introduce yourself again, Sword of the Last Light." ”

"Hmph, do you remember that name?" Dainsleib glanced at Ying in surprise and said, "I didn't mean to hide it. This name was once bathed in the glory of Kanria, but now..."

“… It's more like a sarcasm, a curse. ”

"As the captain of the palace guard who witnessed the fall of his kingdom, I think I have reason not to mention this name again."

"Well, it's exactly the same." Paimon listened to Dainsleif's words, and scratched his head at Ying next to him in some distress.

"What the hell is going on between you?" Ying continued to ask.

Dainsleib replied, "We were traveling companions, a journey of pain, searching for our destiny, but... We didn't make it to the finish line together. ”

Dainsleif's words made Ying couldn't help but sneer and said, "There is no end to the journey, because the sea of stars is boundless. ”

"You're right, but I need to warn you before you ask anything else." After Dainsleif finished answering, he continued: "When I was looking for your blood relative, I didn't chase him, but was teleported to another place. ”

"This makes me feel that the teleportation of the abyss is not a fixed teleportation between two points, but the existence of a teleportation network, and they can freely control the destination of this teleportation network, if my guess is correct, I happened to teleport here just now."

"That proves that in the eyes of the Abyss Order, there is value in setting up a teleportation node here."

"And what are you trying to express?" Ying listened to Dainsleif's analysis and asked lightly.

Dainsleif replied, "I feel that we are most likely being watched by the abyss at this moment. ”

"I'll trust you for now." Ying said.

Listening to Ying's words, Dainsleif nodded, "Heh, wise. There seems to be a fire near the rock wall over there, let's go over and take a look. ”

Ying and Paimon followed Dainsleif to the firelight he had spoken of.

"There are some traces of hilichurl life here, could it be the hilichurls involved in the commission?" Paimon said, looking at the situation not far away.

Hearing Paimon's words, Dainsleif wondered, "Entrustment? Speaking of which, you haven't told me yet... Why are you here, there is no reason for the average traveler to venture beneath the Chasm. ”

"We were commissioned by the Adventurers' Guild to say that strange things were going on here, and we went all the way here." Paimon replied after a pause.

"You want to know the answer?" After hearing Paimon's explanation, Dainsleif spoke.

"Dain, you know?" Paimon wondered.

Dainsleib bowed his head and said, "I happen to know, because the environment here has the effect of reducing the curse." ”

Paimon suddenly said, "Curse! I've heard before that Dain is a national of Kanria. Immortal curse or something"

"For hundreds of years, the pain of the curse still haunts me every day. And when I came here, my body felt a moment of respite. Hearing Paimon's words, Dainsleif couldn't help but sigh and said, "At this moment, my body is also expressing a strong will to me, and that is - to stay." ”

Paimon continued to play her role, and continued to ask Dainsleif, "Weaken the curse. Why is there such a magical effect here? ”

Dainsleif replied, "That's what I'm trying to find out, but as far as I know, the Abyss Order doesn't yet have the technology to achieve a similar effect. ”

"So it makes sense that a large number of hilichurls are gathering here." Paimon nodded in analysis.

"Do you know why hilichurls wear masks?" Dainsleif asked suddenly.

"Understand, because they're all avoiding their current appearance, afraid of their reflection in the water," Ying said.

Listening to Ying's words, Dainsleif nodded: "Yes, after all, it is too ugly and desperate compared to their memories of themselves." ”

"The Curse of Immortality isn't really immortal, though." Dainsleif continued.

"Is there still a chance for a reversal?" Paimon hurriedly asked, hoping to hear an answer from Dainsleif that was different from what he knew.

But she was disappointed, and Dainsleif, as in the plot, shook his head at her and said, "No, but under the effect of wear and tear, the soul and body will still be worn out, even if not in the form of death." ”

"When those hilichurls realize that the end of their selves is near, they seem to instinctively seek a quiet and dark corner to say goodbye to centuries of pain, and this place that can weaken the effect of the curse must be the best coffin for them."

Listening to Dainsleif's words, Paimon scratched his head and said, "Sure enough, it's still like this"

"That's the end of the chatter, vigilance!" Dainsleif said suddenly.

Before Paimon could compose, he looked at Dainsleif, "What's wrong?" ”

"Enemy attack."

As soon as Dainsleif's words fell, several Black Snake Knights suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and Ying had already rushed forward at the moment when the Black Snake Knights appeared, after all, all this is points.

Seeing Ying and the Black Snake Knight whirling around, Paimon knew that the other party was working on the contribution points again, so he turned to Dainsleif and asked, "What are these?" Why did it suddenly appear to attack us? ”

"The Black Serpent Knight, once part of the Kanria Court Guard." Dainsleib explained.

Paimon asked, "Are these your subordinates?" Do you need to let Ying keep her hand? ”

Dainsleib looked at a few Black Snake Knights who were holding weapons and only knew how to launch a brainless attack on Ying, shook his head and said, "No, because they used to be, but now they have a strong curse aura on their bodies, and they have a fighting style that has given up all honor."

"Alright, let's move on." Watching Ying finally wipe out the Black Snake Knight with a single sword, Dainsleif spoke.

"Does that one over there need to be fixed?" Ying pointed her sword at a knight in green armor who appeared above.

The knight in green armor, Jian Ying, pointed his golden sword at him, and the uncomfortable aura from the sword was so strong that it made his heart palpitate, and he involuntarily took a step back.

When Dainsleif heard Ying's words, he looked up and saw the behavior of the green knight, and he hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, he seems to be a little different."
