This MC is so original

A man you don’t know at all, although he has outstanding looks, this handsome face is only attractive to women. Those wither skeletons don’t care how handsome you are.

But why would a man like this appear here? Perhaps he's a close friend of either Keqing or Hu Tao? Or perhaps they've hired someone to help them?

No matter which possibility it is, it doesn't matter. He is just a shadow. His real body is not here, so he cannot make any temporary changes to the plan.

Moreover, the worst case scenario is that the man possesses the Eye of God and possesses super high martial power.

But the wither skeletons he deliberately lured out from the netherworld were not monsters that could be dealt with by superior force. Their terrifying ability to decay life took even him a lot of time to find a way to temporarily stabilize its vitality.

"If your confidence comes from the two behind you, they might disappoint you. Even if they are capable of dealing with those terrifying undead creatures, they definitely can't break the formation I set up."

"No, no, no, I actually think your formation is the easiest to solve."

Walnut whispered a few words, but the doctor couldn't hear clearly.

"You mean these wither skeletons?"

Suddenly, Lu Xiu, who was standing in the crowd, spoke.

The doctor's attention was also attracted by him. When he looked over, he saw Lu Xiu pointing at the group of wither skeletons approaching the crowd. At this time, the group of wither skeletons had been directly surrounded by boulders, leaving only a small opening in front of them.

Lu Xiu turned around and randomly picked a Qianyan soldier and waved at him: "It's you, come here."

The Qianyan Army who was pointed at was stunned for a moment. Instead of going over immediately, he turned to look at Keqing. Seeing Keqing nodded, he walked over.

"Sir, what is it?"

Lu Xiu took out an iron sword from his backpack and handed it to him: "Take this sword and chop those wither skeletons. Don't worry, they are stupid and won't stretch out their arms to chop you."

Qianyanjun glanced back at the group of wither skeletons trapped in the stone house and couldn't help swallowing: "Sir, are you serious?"

"Of course, I won't lie to you. If you don't want to go, I'll let Keqing do it."

"No, no, no, let the subordinate go."

The Qianyan soldier carefully approached the stone house with the iron sword given by Lu Xiu. He couldn't help swallowing and weighed the iron sword in his hand.

The blade looked quite rough, but it felt very heavy, much heavier than his spear.

Gritting his teeth, he swung his sword horizontally towards the wither skeletons. Miraculously, his sword went through the wither skeletons without any hindrance, without feeling stuck in their bones at all.

But before he could figure out the principle, the wither skeletons that were chopped by the sword suddenly became violent and squeezed forward desperately without caring about their own friendly troops blocking the way.

Qianyanjun was shocked by this scene, but he still suppressed his panic and held his sword in front of the group of wither skeletons. However, within a few seconds he found that these wither skeletons were really as stupid as Lu Xiu said.

The window left behind was clearly three meters wide and one meter high, but they just didn't know how to adapt and crawled out of the window directly, but only knew to squeeze forward desperately.

"Hey, if we had known these monsters were idiots, we wouldn't have had so many brothers injured."

Seeing that the opponent could not attack him, Qianyanjun also became excited. He raised the iron sword in his hand and slashed again.

"This sword strike is for the brothers who were injured by you!"

"I wanted to strike with this sword myself!"

"For this sword, buy two and get one free!"

After everyone watched the Qianyan Army fighting fiercely for a while, Lu Xiu turned around and smiled at the phantom left by the doctor.

"So, those wither skeletons you're so proud of, are they pretty retarded? And then there's the magic circle you set up, right..."

Lu Xiu's gaze once again fell on the rest of the Qianyan Army. When Lu Xiu's gaze swept over the Qianyan Army, they all took a step forward at the same time.

Even if you are not the first to destroy the enemy's trap, you can at least assist!

This is a free gift! Who wouldn't be tempted by this as a soldier?

The rest of the Qianyan Army had the words "choose me" written all over their faces.

But there was one person who was more proactive than them and jumped directly onto Lu Xiu's face.

"Hey, Lu Xiu, do you want to destroy this stone door again?"

Hu Tao came up to Lu Xiu with a smile on her face and her hands behind her back.

Lu Xiu nodded, but looked at Hu Tao with some confusion and asked, "You want to come? But isn't this your Wangsheng Hall's property? Wouldn't it feel a bit weird for you to destroy it yourself?"

"It's better to destroy it yourself than to let others destroy it, right? Besides, I also want to replace these stone doors with new ones."

"Okay, that's for you."

Lu Xiu pulled out a pickaxe from his backpack and threw it to Hu Tao. Hu Tao almost fell to the ground when she reached for it. After struggling to lift it, Hu Tao looked at Lu Xiu in surprise and asked, "Why is your pickaxe so heavy?"

After all, it is made of three iron ingots, so it is very powerful that Hu Tao can lift it.

After complaining, Walnut came to the stone door that had been modified by the doctor with a pickaxe in his hand, raised the pickaxe in his hand and smashed it down heavily.

With just one hit, cracks appeared on the heavy stone door, and it was obvious that it could not withstand a few more blows.

When the doctor's afterimage saw this scene, his eyes hidden under the mask couldn't help but shrink a little.

"Impossible... How could you possibly shake this stone door so easily with the blessing of the magic circle?!"

Chapter 91: Mushrooms are a Practical Tool

As Walnut's pickaxe smashed a hole in the stone door, the doctor's face hidden under the mask could no longer hold back.

He turned to look at Lu Xiu and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"Passers-by."

Lu Xiu crossed his arms and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "I was hoping to finish things here as soon as possible so I could go home and work on my own business, but you showed up to mess things up. And if I remember correctly, you were the one who went with Tartaglia to find Ba Che, right?"

The doctor was stunned when he heard this. "You followed us? No, that's not right. Logically, if you followed us, you would be discovered. Then how did you know it was mine?"

After much thought, the doctor still couldn't understand how Lucius managed to find out that he and Tartaglia were looking for Bache without being discovered.

"It seems you are a variable..."

The doctor looked at Lu Xiu deeply, feeling somewhat helpless: "It's a pity that I am just a photo, otherwise..."

Before he could finish his words, Lu Xiu interrupted him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Either tell me where your real body is and I'll go find it directly, or if you don't tell me, I'll go find it myself."

Not only the Doctor, but also Tartaglia who deceived him, Lu Xiu will also settle the score with them.

"Really?" The doctor raised his eyebrows. "I'm looking forward to the expression on my face when I see you."

As he finished speaking, the afterimage left by the doctor gradually dissipated as the magic circle on the stone gate was destroyed, until it completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Tsk, a mere afterimage is still so arrogant."

Walnut walked back to the group carrying the pickaxe and made an unpleasant sound.

Keqing spoke soothingly, "Don't worry. Once things here are resolved, I'll naturally arrange for someone to find him. As long as they're still in Liyue, they won't be able to escape the eyes of the Liyue Seven Stars. They will pay for what happened here."

"Well, let's get things settled here as soon as possible."

Keqing left a small group of people to accompany the Thousand Rocks soldier holding the Lu Xiu Iron Sword to deal with the trapped Wither Skeletons and asked them to catch up with the team after dealing with these Wither Skeletons. Then she led the rest of the people to continue moving forward.

"We're here. This is the core of the border."

Walnut, who was walking in front, stopped and pointed forward.

Everyone looked in the direction of Walnut's finger. Dozens of pigmen were wandering on the platform she pointed to, and the undead who used to gather here to chat were nowhere to be seen.

"Where have all the undead gone?"

Hu Tao was a little puzzled. On weekdays, the undead were eager to get together and chat, but why was there no one to be seen today?

Lan Xi came up from behind and explained, "After that man called Doctor showed up earlier, he deliberately lured many of those terrifying skeleton monsters out of the portal and chased us everywhere. Everyone hid."

"Then let's do this. Miss Lanxi, you and Hu Tao will go search for the lost souls. I will send a team of Qianyan soldiers to protect you. Lu Xiu, you are more familiar with the portal to the underworld, so come with me to see if there is any way to destroy it."

As one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, Keqing quickly assigned the work. She has rich experience in this area, and everyone has no objection to the assignment.

"Row."

Hu Tao led Lanxi and several Qianyan soldiers to search for the hiding undead, while Lu Xiu brought Keqing to the two whirlpools at the top of the stairs.

"Is this the passage through which the undead at the border enter reincarnation?"

Keqing first glanced at the vortex beside her before turning her gaze to the portal on the other side. "So this is the portal to the Netherworld?"

Keqing drew out her long sword, tentatively wrapped the sword with lightning elements, and then chopped down at the dark purple vortex.

As a result, the sword passed through the middle of the vortex without any obstruction. Keqing sighed helplessly when she saw this.

"It seems that conventional means cannot destroy this portal. Lu Xiu, you try."

Keqing took a step back, giving the space to Lu Xiu. Lu Xiu walked forward and tried to take out a pickaxe to try to destroy it, but the result was the same as Keqing's. The pickaxe passed directly through the portal. It was obvious that the portal was not a physical entity.

"If it's not a physical entity, we have to think of other methods. Should we block it?"

Lu Xiu turned around and asked Keqing.

Keqing frowned and thought, "If there's no way to destroy it, then we'll just have to block it. But if possible, it's best to destroy it. After all, those netherworld creatures might come to this border again through the portal."

"Okay, I'll try my best."

Lu Xiu held his chin with one hand and began to think about some methods of destroying blocks that would be used in MC.

"Maybe mushrooms would work."

Lu Xiu suddenly remembered an experience in the past when he was surrounded by bedrock and played a prank by his friends.

"Keqing, help me find some mushrooms around here."

Lu Xiu took out the soil and the remaining bones from his backpack. As long as he found mushrooms, he could try to destroy the portal.

"it is good."

Keqing nodded, then turned around and told her subordinates to look around for mushrooms. She also went to a dark and damp corner to look for some.

After a while, Keqing and several Qianyan soldiers came back with some mushrooms.

"Lu Xiu, I don't know what kind of mushrooms you want. Can you take a look at these?"

Keqing gathered the mushrooms everyone had collected and placed them on the ground for Lu Xiu to choose from.

Lu Xiu took a few glances at it, picked out a brown mushroom, put it in his backpack and checked its recipe. It was the same as the mushroom in MC, so he nodded.

"Okay, let's use this."

Lu Xiu first put soil under the portal, and then planted the mushrooms on it. However, just when he was about to use bone meal to ripen the mushrooms, he suddenly remembered something and turned around to give the bone meal to Keqing.

"Keqing, I'm going to the Nether. Since that doctor can enter the Nether, he obviously entered through another portal. I plan to go through another portal to find him directly. I'll leave this portal here to you to destroy. Just wait until I get in and sprinkle this bone meal on these mushrooms."

After giving Keqing his instructions, Lu Xiu jumped directly into the portal without waiting for Keqing to speak.

"Eh? Lu Xiu, you..."

Keqing didn't have time to catch Lu Xiu, and could only watch him jump into the portal. Looking at the bone meal in her hand helplessly, Keqing could only sprinkle the bone meal on the mushroom as Lu Xiu instructed.

In an instant, the thumb-sized mushroom grew into a four or five-meter-tall mushroom 'tree', and the portal above it was replaced by the mushroom 'tree' at the moment of growth, disappearing in front of everyone.

"Isn't this amazing?"

Chapter 92: Men Only Need to Remember One Thing (Three in One)

In Liyue Harbor, a house was on fire. Above the burning house, an evil spirit was wailing. The next moment, the evil spirit's wailing stopped abruptly as a huge rock spear pierced through its head, nailing it directly to the road surface.

"How amazing! He killed this monster from another world in one strike. You are worthy of being Lord Rock God."

In an open-air private room on the top floor of Xinyuexuan, the doctor looked at the evil spirit he had brought out from the netherworld with great difficulty being killed so easily, but there was not much anger on his face. Instead, he clapped his hands with admiration at the man standing in front of him by the fence with his hands behind his back.

Zhongli glanced nonchalantly at the evil spirit that was pierced by his rock spear. Seeing that the Thousand Rocks Army had already gone to the street to provide relief, he withdrew his gaze and turned to face the doctor with an elusive smile on his face.

"So, the Fatui's executive officer has come to see me specifically. What's the matter? If it's a matter concerning your queen, then follow the procedure and submit it to the Liyue Seven Stars first. They will then report back to me."

"What I want to say is urgent. I beg your forgiveness for the presumptuous request to see the Rock Emperor."

The doctor politely bowed and apologized, but Zhongli didn't buy it and said casually, "Tell me why you're here."

"Well, then, to cut to the chase, Your Majesty, you have great omniscience. I'm sure you've already heard about the appearance of several strange monsters in Liyue Harbor and Wuwang Slope. One of these, a pitch-black skeleton monster, is particularly threatening. Its attacks can corrupt the target's vitality. Many Liyue civilians and the Thousand Rock Army have already been sent to the infirmary for emergency treatment due to this 'curse,' right?"

"So what?"

Zhongli looked uninterested, just folding his arms and looking at him coldly.

"Executive Officer, you still haven't told me your purpose."
