Genshin Impact: Reject Camera, Replace Traveler

Chapter 57 The Treasure Thieves Sneaking Up

Feeling the life solidification technology he currently possessed, Gu Chen sighed, not knowing whether he was relieved or helpless.

This technology has significant limitations.

If I want to resurrect someone important, my current strength is not enough.

But it makes sense when you think about it this way.

If people could be resurrected at will, any world would be in chaos, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Chen originally thought that his strength was almost enough, but now he feels that it is not enough.

We have to continue to become stronger.

How strong will it become?

He came to this world not just to witness, but also to change some things that are hard to accept.

If we want to change and make up for these things, we must resurrect some important people.

If you want to resurrect these important people, you must have sufficient strength.

Looking at the starry sky, Gu Chen sighed.

The road ahead is long, so keep your feet on the ground.

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a slight unusual sound.

There seemed to be very light footsteps coming closer from far away.

Here I would like to explain some of the details about the two abilities: Ultra Vision and Ultra Hearing.

Whether it is to see or hear something far away, Gu Chen must activate this ability to do the corresponding thing.

When the corresponding ability is not activated, information from far away cannot be received. At most, one's ears and eyes will be sharper than before.

Look, Gu Chen now heard an unusual sound, thanks to his greatly enhanced hearing.

After listening carefully, Gu Chen basically concluded that someone was indeed sneaking towards him in the dark, with footsteps that were extremely light, comparable to a cat's.

After confirming this, Gu Chen spoke calmly on the plain at night:

"My friends, what brings you here so late at night?

If the person who comes has bad intentions, there is no need to come. Retreating can avoid casualties.

If you are kind enough, I might invite you to warm yourself by the fire to ward off the chill of the night."

His voice traveled accurately into the distance.

However, it was very quiet in the distance and there was no response.

Shaking his head helplessly, Gu Chen picked up a stone and flicked it away quickly:

"I won't give up until I see the Yellow River!"

The stone shot out like a bullet with a bang!

After the shot was fired, several people rolled out from the bushes in the distance!

When these people rolled out, they looked a little disheveled.

Turning his head, Gu Chen discovered that these people were covering their faces against the backdrop of the stars in the sky, and were obviously dressed like a treasure-stealing group.

Looking at this group of people, Gu Chen snorted coldly:

“There’s a saying in my hometown.

When friends come, we have wine; when jackals come, we have swords and guns.

I have warned you, but you still refuse to change your ways. You are indeed wolves."

Several treasure-hunting groups got up from the ground and dusted themselves off unwillingly.

The leader of the treasure-stealing group had a fierce look in his eyes:

"Damn it! We were so gentle, how could you have noticed?"

Gu Chen looked at them calmly, still sitting in front of the campfire:

"That's right, your footsteps are lighter than a cat's. You can tell at a glance that you are a professional and veteran treasure-stealing group.

Unfortunately, just now, my hearing has greatly improved, allowing me to hear your footsteps.

Even if my hearing hadn't improved, I would have been able to feel it if you had gotten closer.

So your failure is inevitable."

The leader of the treasure-stealing group gnashed his teeth in anger:

"Since we can't sneak past them, we can only rob them openly!

Brothers! Go!

Regardless of whether it's this person or the people in the tent, regardless of whether they are male or female, old or young, arrest them all and bring them back to the command!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the treasure-hunting group took the lead, and the other treasure-hunting groups rushed over with screams and howls.

Before they rushed over, Gu Chen was still a little curious.

This treasure-stealing group's style of operation is wrong.

In theory, the treasure-stealing group only robs money.

What's the point of them taking him back? It can't be kidnapping, right?

Never mind, let’s get rid of them first.

Gu Chen did nothing and just stood there.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and activated Ultra Telekinesis through the air.

The invisible mental power was released, triggering a transparent shock wave, which directly knocked the treasure-stealing group to the ground!

Climbing up from the ground in an even more embarrassed manner, these treasure-hunting groups looked at each other with great fear in their eyes.

"What just...what just happened? What hit us?"

"No...I don't know! Look...I can't see!"

"What...what should I do? Was this person responsible?"

"This idea seems a bit tricky. Should we... change our target?"

The other treasure-hunting groups were frightened and took a few steps back unconsciously.

Only the leader of the treasure-stealing group, though he was also very scared and trembling all over, still held his weapon with an expression of being ready to fight to the death:

"Change the target?

It's too late now. We finally found this person.

If we can’t capture enough people and report back before dawn, our fate will be…”

The leader of the treasure-stealing group didn't tell the whole story.

But just by saying this, the other members of the treasure-hunting team were filled with fear from the bottom of their hearts.

So the remaining members of the treasure-hunting team had to fight desperately.

They were holding all kinds of weapons and, led by their leader, rushed forward again with howling sounds.

Looking at this scene, Gu Chen frowned.

Why do I have to use my telekinesis to repel them before they rush over from such a long distance?

It’s because Gu Chen doesn’t want these rabble to come and disturb Paimon and Noelle’s sleep.

Gu Chen would feel bad if he woke them both up because of the noise of fighting.

But...what exactly is going on with these treasure-stealing groups?

In Mondstadt, Gu Chen and Paimon had encountered many treasure-stealing groups.

Those treasure-stealing groups all adhere to the principle of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. If they meet someone who is easy to deal with, they will rob him of his money, and if they meet someone who is difficult to deal with, they will turn around and run away.

Unlike this group of treasure-stealing people, they just faced the challenge head-on.

What? Are the treasure-hunting groups in Liyue and Mondstadt the same species?

There was no time to think about anything else. Gu Chen narrowed his eyes and swept over with a telekinetic attack that was stronger than the previous one.

Similar to the situation just now, this group of treasure thieves hadn't even rushed over when they were beaten away by an invisible force!

Now, the treasure-hunting group finally faced reality.

After one of the treasure-hunting group got up, he felt severe pain in his body and was about to collapse.

He shouted at the leader:

“This won’t do!

This is not a question of courage! This is a question of reality! This is a question of ability!

I don’t know where this evil guy came from, but his methods are too powerful, we can’t even get close to him!

This is obviously not something we can handle!

Rather than going over there and dying now, I'd rather go back and die before dawn! That way, at least I can live a little longer!
