Wanjie: Genshin Impact Dark Fruit

Chapter 62: Conversation with the Calydonians

Just then, a female voice came from behind Ye Qi. Ye Qi looked helpless when he heard the voice.

The person who came was Bernice. On the way to the town, Ye Qi was often harassed by her. If he had played the plot after the final part of Zone Zero, he would know what kind of woman she was.

But unfortunately, before Ye Qi traveled through time, Zone Zero had just appeared not long ago, so he still treated Bernice with the worldview of a normal person.

Bernice invited Ye Qi, "Don't stand here like an idiot, Ye Qi. Come with me. I'll make you a drink. I'm a famous bartender in this town."

After saying that, Bernice took Ye Qi to the only bar in the town. Caesar, who was behind her, was about to introduce the people in the town to Ye Qi and called Kasa over.

But when he turned around, he found that Ye Qi had been called away by Bernice, so Caesar had no choice but to chase after him, and Paipai, Lucy Wright and others followed behind him.

Soon they arrived at the only bar in Wildfire Town. Bernice went straight to the bar to make cocktails while they sat on the sofa outside.

A few people started chatting outside. Caesar said at this time: "Speaking of which, Ye Qi and Lucy are a bit similar. They both gave up the comfortable life in the city and ran to the outer ring."

Ye Qi was stunned after hearing this and looked at Lucy in surprise. Then he waved his hand and said, "There's a group of crazy people in New Ailidu, some kind of Praise Society. They worship the void and the ether all day long and want to turn people into skeletons. A few days ago, I was ambushed at the entrance of the security district."

At that time, I felt that the city was unsafe, so I ran to the outer ring road to find a safe place to stay.

Lucy was a little surprised after hearing this and said, "The Praise Society hasn't been destroyed yet. I remember the third generation head of the Hoshimi family once surrounded them and killed an important member of theirs. After that, no one from the Praise Society appeared again."

Ye Qi shook his head to indicate he didn't know, and continued nonchalantly, "But it doesn't matter. I guess they won't have a good time in the future. After all, there's just a traitor in the high-altitude bomb. Now that they've failed in their attack on me, they've probably been exposed."

Caesar also smiled brightly and said, "Just stay here with peace of mind. I'll tell Kasa later that she's the mayor here. She'll probably be very happy to have you join. You can stay at our Sons of Calidon's base tonight. You've come at the perfect time. In a month, the Outer Rim will launch the Hellfire Ride. The Outer Rim forces are all preparing for this event. You can come and see it then."

Ye Qi was a little confused and asked curiously, "What is the Hellfire Ride?" At this time, Bernice's voice came from behind. She said that the Hellfire Ride is a ritual for selecting the moderator of the forum in the external environment.

Caesar continued, "The Outer Ring's original way of survival depended on the oil production area over there, but a void crisis broke out in the core diesel area of ​​the oil wells. A large amount of etheric energy flowed along the oil pipeline to the core oil production area, and the shallow oil deposits there suffered.

But by coincidence, the only mining equipment in the oil field collapsed, forming a natural gas vent. The gushing burning natural gas isolated the incoming etheric energy. Later, the place was called the Burning Crystal Fire Lake. Fortunately, people living in the outer ring of the Burning Crystal Fire Lake were able to survive.

However, the etheric energy did not disappear. Instead, it combined with natural gas to form etheric crystals that accumulated in the lake of fire. As time accumulated, the etheric crystals would eventually cover the entire lake of fire and extinguish it.

Ye Qi also sighed at this time: "It is indeed a coincidence, but what does this have to do with the Hellfire Ride?"

Caesar then went on to explain, "The Lake of Fire was once in danger of being extinguished, and then someone created a special flint."

As he spoke, Caesar took out a square piece of metal from his arms and showed it to Ye Qi.

Then he continued, "We gathered a group of friends and rode motorcycles to the Burning Crystal Lake, but they didn't even have a carrot in their hands before the lake was almost sealed off."

At this point, Caesar looked a little excited, as if the story had reached its climax. She continued, "In desperation, the young man rode his motorcycle towards the entrance of the fire lake and reignited it, allowing the people of the outer ring to survive.

Later, his companions thought he was dead and left the cave. Unexpectedly, he reappeared at the cave exit the next day. It was simply a miracle.

Everyone believed that his courage moved the gods of fire and the sun, allowing him to be reborn from the ashes.

Then everyone made a decorative statue of him falling into the lake of fire and hung it at the door when riding in the hellfire.

It is said that Caesar took out a small pendant again and it really looked like a fallen person.

After hearing this story, Ye Qi nodded and said with emotion, "Indeed! If there really were gods in this world, they would certainly be moved by his courage."

Ye Qi then looked at Lucy curiously and asked her curiously, "Did you also come out of the city? Why did you give up the superior life in the city?"

Lucy curled her lips helplessly and said dissatisfiedly: "My father is a nouveau riche. He only cares about profit and calculation. I don't want the life he arranged for me, so I ran away."

When Lucy said this, the three little pigs next to her covered their ears and hid behind the sofa.

Ye Qi smiled and nodded, then couldn't help but say, "You look a lot like someone I know in Teyvat. Although she may not know me, I've heard her stories."

Caesar, Lucy, and Bernice were all there, and they asked curiously, "What is Teyvat? Is it your hometown?"

Ye Qi didn't hide anything and began to introduce Teyvat to them, saying, "Teyvat is another world, a world full of elements. There are seven countries in the world, each representing its own element. There's Mondstadt, the city-state of wind and freedom, Liyue, the country of rock and contract, Inazuma, the country of thunder and eternity, Xumi, the country of grass and wisdom, Fontaine, the country of water and justice, Nata, the country of war and fire, and finally, Solstice, a country filled with wind and snow. There are seven gods in these seven countries. If the wishes of those who live there are fulfilled, they will be looked upon by the gods and receive the Eye of God, which can control a certain elemental force."

Ye Qi didn't pause but continued, "In Liyue, there's a little girl named Xin Yan. She's loved rock music since she was little, but her country's main focus is on opera, which emphasizes peace and prosperity for the people. Her passion isn't accepted by the people around her, but she doesn't care about other people's looks. Instead, she picks up her guitar and sings a melody that's all hers."

She once shouted: "She sang in protest, and her resistance was noticed by the gods, and she gained the eyes of the gods."

Caesar said with emotion: "Teyvat is really magical. I really want to visit Mondstadt when I have time. Mondstadt, which advocates freedom, sounds very interesting."
