Genshin Impact: Immortal Cave

At this time, the familiar female voice came from inside the door again!

Li Mochen pushed the door open with excitement. What appeared before him was... a huge library!

It is incredible that such a small house could contain such a huge library. The round room is like a large cylinder, with circles of bookshelves arranged around it.

These bookshelves are stacked up to the ceiling, which is a hundred meters high, and are filled with countless books.

Looking at the thousands of books, Li Mochen was sure that he had found the right person. After all, as a legendary alchemist, it was reasonable for him to have a rich collection of books.

"Hello? Is anyone there?"

Li Mochen shouted as he walked deeper into the library.

"Go straight and turn right at the end."

A few seconds later, Li Mochen's loud cry was responded to, and the voice came from inside again.

"Okay, I'll be right there!" Li Mochen nodded and walked quickly towards the back of the room.

After passing through the second door, he saw an amazing corridor, with large pieces of stained glass on the top, colorful and dreamlike.

If Li Mochen didn't know that he was in the belly of the "World Serpent", he might have thought that he was in the "Mond Cathedral".

Soon, Li Mochen arrived at a hall with a high ceiling and gorgeous decorations. Finally, a not-so-tall figure appeared in his sight.

Deep in the hall, a huge "window" inlaid with colored glass dominated the view. In front of the "window", a person wearing a white robe that covered even his face, with a spotless gold border, was sitting quietly.

The strange thing was that even though the man was only a dozen meters away from Li Mochen, he couldn't sense the other person's aura at all. This feeling was similar to Albedo's, almost exactly the same.

What's going on? Why can't I sense this person's presence? Is she really a living being?

“Who are you? You seem to know something about me.”

However, just as Li Mochen was confused, the hooded woman spoke first.

She turned her head slightly, and a pair of pale golden eyes and a young face came into Li Mochen's sight. The woman was beautiful, clean, and holy. If you didn't know her identity, some people would believe that she was a nun.

But obviously, the "Golden Alchemist" Reindorte could not be a nun. Her eyes were shining with wisdom that saw through everything, and her expression was indifferent, making it difficult to understand.

Normally, she was in the belly of the "World Snake" and suddenly had an uninvited guest. Shouldn't she be surprised by the appearance of the guest? However, Rhinedot did not show any surprise, but looked at Li Mochen with the eyes of examining garbage.

Is this the legendary great alchemist? This aura is indeed different. But I feel like she seems to treat me as something strange, and the way she looks at me is a little strange.

"Hello, are you the great alchemist Reindort?"

"…I don't deserve the title of Great Alchemist, but the name Rhinedot is correct."

I found the right person. Li Mochen nodded, feeling delighted. Then, he briefly introduced himself and explained in detail the purpose of his visit, including the current crisis in the world and why he needed the "Heart of Naberis".

While Li Mochen gave a detailed explanation, Rhinedort remained indifferent.

“Are you done?”

After listening to his statement, Rhinedot asked expressionlessly.

"Yes, so if you could lend me the 'Heart of Naberish', that would be really..."

"It's no use lending it to you. You can never leave this place anyway, so what's the point of having that thing?"

Just when Li Mochen was about to press on and continue to persuade her, a cold remark made him stunned for a moment.

“You can never leave? No way?”

Although Li Mochen knew that the belly of the world snake where he was now was not a place easy to enter or exit, the moment he found Rhinedorth, he vaguely felt that he might be saved.

After all, the legendary great alchemist Rhinedot would never be trapped in the belly of the World Serpent.

She was probably tired of the hustle and bustle of the world and was looking for a quiet place to concentrate on her research.

And where could there be a more undisturbed place than within the body of the World Serpent?

Therefore, if Rhinedotte wants to leave, she should be able to leave at any time, which is in line with her status.

However, after hearing what Li Mochen said, Rhinedort actually burst out laughing.

"Are you stupid? If I could get out, I would have done so a long time ago. It's because I can't that I'm trapped here."

“This… you didn’t volunteer to do research here?”

"Who would do research in the belly of the World Serpent? What is there to study in this pitch-black place? I've wanted to get out for a long time, but I just can't."

Having said that, Rhinedot sighed helplessly, leaned back in his chair and slowly closed his eyes.

No... No way! It turns out she is really trapped here!

After learning the reason why Rhinedort stayed here, Li Mochen also sat down on the chair next to him.

At first, he thought that Rhinedot's indifference came from her master's demeanor, but now he understood that she had simply given up struggling and was ready to wait for death.

Of course, Rhinedort chose to give up mainly because the opponent was too strong.

After being devoured by the World Serpent, the great alchemist tried many ways to escape.

However, the problem is that this different-dimensional space cannot be solved through conventional means.

"According to my investigation and research, the belly of the World Serpent is equivalent to an independent universe, with no exit at all."

"Independent universe... this is too much."

"It's not an exaggeration at all. After all, the World Serpent's main body is much longer than the total length of the 'Twelve Layers of the Abyss'."

"That is to say, it can directly span from one end of the twelfth layer of the abyss to the other end?"

“Not only that, it can also coil several times within the twelve floors.”

After listening to Rhinedort's explanation, Li Mochen had a new understanding of the twelfth-level master.

The total length of the "Twelve Layers of the Abyss" is actually longer than that of the "Continent of Teyvat".

In other words, if the World Serpent were to descend upon the earth, it could even encircle an entire continent and crush it.

The body of a monster is as long as the entire world. No wonder it is called the "Snake of the World". It is really terrifying.

"But no matter how long it is, there will be an end, right?"

"It's useless. There is a magnetic field wave with chaotic direction in the body of the World Serpent. Any creature can only spin around in it and cannot reach the end."

Magnetic field waves in chaotic directions...I see.

Li Mochen immediately recalled the scene of himself spinning in the dark. That should be the effect of the magnetic field waves.

According to Rheindort, she also tried to reach the exit several times, but to no avail.

"Then... the body of the World Serpent is very long, and it is not easy to enter and exit from the mouth. What about from above or below?"

Li Mochen asked while pointing above his head and to the floor.
