He and Noelle last warmed up for a day, and on the third day, Anping and Ying embarked on a trip to the snow-capped mountains as promised. As for Mona, Anping gave her a sum of money for her travel and a few days' living expenses, and told her to go to Liyue to wait for them first.

Under the protection of the god of wind, Mondstadt is like spring all year round, except for this snow-capped mountain. The night before yesterday, when Wendy was asked why he didn't send the Dragon Crest Snow Mountain to the bottom of the sea, he was confused, and now Anping only knows the news they got from the Adventurers' Association, this snow mountain is related to the demon dragon Durin back then.

However, the dragon Durin must have only been five hundred years ago, and it was already a thousand years ago when Barbatos sent the snow-capped mountains into the sea.

Both Anping and Ying agreed that Wendy must have something to hide from them. But Wendy didn't say anything, and there was nothing they could do about him.

Before he even reached the snowy mountain, Paimon was frozen and didn't know where to go. It wasn't until he arrived at the makeshift camp set up by the Adventurers' Guild at the foot of the snowy mountains that Paimon, wrapped in a four-layer cotton jacket like a flying cotton ball, shivered.

Not because it's warm, of course, but because there's a simple open-air restaurant. Anping and Ying plan to eat something before exploring the snow-capped mountain.

After drinking a bowl of hot vegetable soup, Paimon finally didn't shake so much.

"I told Paimon that you should follow Mona to Liyue first, do you regret it now?"

"Paimon is Ying's best friend! It's not because of this... Such a little difficulty is... Abandon Ying..."In the face of Anping's quip, Paimon's tone was very firm at first, but after taking a look at the towering snow-capped mountains, he became less confident.

The snowy mountains are much scarier than the Ice Slim...

"Paimon, you have to hold on, don't freeze, we don't know if we're going to see a veterinarian or a doctor to treat you."

"Paimon isn't a pet! Just find a doctor! "The flying cotton ball hit Anping, and the effect was mediocre.

They didn't mess around with Paimon for too long, and after eating, Anping and Ying continued to set off. Passing by a tent, Anping's eyes were drawn to a young girl standing there.

Just glanced at it, and Anping's eyes never took his eyes off the girl's head. I saw a middle-aged man with beast ears in Anping, Qingquan Town, and sure enough, Mondstadt has a beast ear girl!

"Ah, it's Sucrose, are you also coming to the Snow Mountain to explore?" The flying cotton ball flew behind the girl and said hello.

Anping didn't expect Paimon to know this beast-eared girl with emerald green hair.

"Wow! Surprise me, please don't scare me suddenly while I'm researching! The girl named Sucrose was startled by Paimon's from behind, and her ears almost pricked up, and she was relieved to see that it was Paimon, but Anping noticed that she didn't dare to look into Paimon's eyes when she spoke, and her personality seemed to be a little introverted and timid.

The long, furry ears that seemed to move with the mood were definitely not fakes.

"But I just said hello, and you just look like you're just standing here dumbfounded..."Paimon felt a little innocent.

"No, there is no such thing. I'm obviously naming the newly developed four-fold-seeded sweet sweet flower. "When it comes to its own R&D, Sucrose's voice is much more normal, and her ears don't flutter anymore.

"Quadruple Seed Sweet Sweet Flower... Is it also four times sweeter? An Ping walked up and agreed.

"Oh? Are you interested? "I met like-minded people, and Sucrose was a little surprised.

"A little bit..."Anping felt that Xiangling should like this ingredient that is basically unseen.

"Great, next time please give me the chance to show you the new results! It's a pity, if I hadn't come to the Snow Mountain, I would have usually brought the finished product with me..."Sucrose was full of regret.

"Oh yes, yes, I seem to have forgotten to introduce myself, my name is Sucrose, and I am Mr. Albedo's assistant, and I am an alchemist. If you have any questions about alchemy, you can come and ask me, I... Will try to help. Anping noticed that Sucrose's ears trembled.

Seems nervous. Obviously, when I was discussing the four-fold big seed sweet flower just now, I was still very confident.

"My name is Anping, and I'm interested in alchemy... Well, there shouldn't be anything to ask you for. "Anping doesn't know anything about alchemy.

"Mr. Anping? Are you the hero who saved Mondstadt with the Travelers? I really didn't expect you to be an advanced alchemist, you should be able to discuss it with Mr. Albedo, I really don't seem to have anything to teach you..."Sucrose misunderstood Anping's sentence that there was nothing to ask her for.

"He may not be able to refine gold, and he should be more good at copper smelting." Ying gave An Ping a disdainful look.

"Please don't slander me!? What do you mean by smelting copper, I'm good at it!? "Sucrose is completely incomprehensible to their traverser's characteristic slang communication.

"But Sucrose, aren't you doing research in the city? Why did you suddenly run to the snowy mountains? They argue about theirs, and Paimon continues to chat with Sucrose.

"Timaius and I are helping Mr. Albedo sort out the experimental data. Timaeus just left, didn't you meet him? ”

"No, no." Paimon shook his head.

"He said he wasn't sensitive enough to the data, and he was much worse than Mr. Albedo. There are some things that Mr. can see at a glance, but we have to think about it for a long time. I'm afraid this is the gap between knowledge and experience... Frustrated, he said he was going to go for a walk elsewhere and I would do the rest of the work alone. Sucrose explained why she was here alone.

Wow, this Timaeus, I just said that I had a stomachache and went fishing... The reason for frustration is that this kind of naïve girl will believe it.

"I wanted to finish what I was doing and go around, but I didn't expect to find some interesting data in the report... Alas, my quest is going to be postponed again..."Sucrose lowered her head in frustration.

"Exploration!? What a quest?! As soon as he heard about the secret, Paimon naturally thought of treasure, and when he thought of treasure, Paimon thought of Mora.

At the thought of Mora, Paimon's eyes instantly lit up with a sparkle of light. Anping and Ying also looked at Sucrose, originally they didn't have any set goals in the snow mountain this time.

"Ah, then, are you free now?"

"Of course, we are also preparing to go to the snowy mountains." Paimon forgot about the cold and didn't even shiver anymore.

"Can you please do me a favor? In fact, I always felt like... Mr. Albedo is hiding something from me and Timaus. He seems to have been hiding something... I guess it must be something awesome to do with alchemy! "Wait, this so-called secret is not trying to make us steal that Mr. Albedo's things.

Looking at Sucrose's ears fluttering because of excitement, Anping didn't expect her to be such a bold girl.

But it's not good to steal...
