Genshin Impact: The wind blowing back to the starting point

"The continent of Teyvat has never lacked such a group of obsessed people." Wendy sat on the ground and sighed after listening to this story.

Although he is free and easy, he is also a person who moves forward for freedom, so he can especially understand their "heading towards the stars and the abyss".

Normally, he would definitely recall this story and write a poem praising the spirit of an adventurer.

But obviously, Zhongli's purpose in telling this story at this moment was not to move Wendy, but to draw out the lost manor.

So, Wendy lowered her head and looked at the paper spread on the ground and asked: "But it is now 2,600 years ago, 2,500 years ago when you met those adventurers, and 2,500 years ago when the legendary crime happened. Two thousand and four hundred years ago, even if we went to Fontaine, even if we had the topographic map you drew, we couldn't find that manor."

"It's true that I can't find it, but don't you think the rumors I heard are similar to what you dreamed about?"

That being said, they are indeed very similar.

They are all in the same manor, and they are all in the situation of annihilation.

Not only that, the situation that the adventure group encountered was similar to what Wendy saw in her dream. Everyone died in the hall, and they were all at a banquet.

It sounds like this, if the rumors are true, then what the adventure group encountered would be very much like the recurrence of the family murder case.

But they cannot be completely sure that it is a re-enactment, because no one among them has seen the crime scene, and no one knows the details of the case.

Everything is just speculation.

"Then where did what you wrote come from?" Wendy picked up a piece of paper from the ground and looked at it carefully.

"The note that the Liyue woman showed me," Zhongli walked over to him and sat down to look at it. "It took me a while to write it down."

"As expected of the King of Rock! He has a photographic memory!" Wendy gave Zhongli a thumbs up.

Looking at his expression, Zhongli didn't say anything. At this moment, the solemn Emperor Yanwang only focused on the paper in front of him.

These notes include records of all the routes the adventure group took after entering the mountains, as well as records of things they encountered in the manor.

What Wendy was most curious about was the topographic map.

According to rumors, the manor is located in a valley, and this is indeed the case on the topographic map.

The surrounding area looks densely forested, making it easy to get in but difficult to get out.

Everything seems normal.

But based on Wendy’s years of traveling experience, it’s a little weird.

In a forest like this, it stands to reason that there would be many wild beasts, not monsters.

Monsters usually gather in places where the elemental power is strong and can bring them bonuses, or they guard the secret areas of treasure chests.

Moreover, generally speaking, monsters will not chase people spontaneously. They usually attack after being alerted.

In addition, there is another point worthy of attention, that is, Emperor Yanwang cannot find the manor.

Although most of the manor belongs to Fengdan, part of it also belongs to Liyue. As long as it is on a rock, how can Emperor Yanwang not discover it?

And it wasn't just the Rock King Emperor. It seemed that they were lost in the forest for a long time at the beginning and only found it later.

It seems like an opportunity is needed.

Wendy lay on the ground, covering himself with paper and thinking. After a long time, he murmured: "Is... space distorted? The power of the abyss caused the distortion of space."

"Abyss?" Zhongli looked at Wendy in surprise.

When he heard this story, he was more suspicious that the souls of the dead refused to leave and that the evil spirits were causing trouble there, and he almost didn't think about the abyss.

After all, if it were an abyss, everything would be complicated.

But judging from the current situation, this does seem like an abyss.

Perhaps Abyss had its eye on An En at that time, and all the murders were caused by An En under the bewitchment of Abyss.

"I have a guess," Wendy looked at the ceiling, with a kind of compassion from God in her eyes, "This demon god An En was once a human, but later became a demon god. I am afraid he was born under the curse of the abyss."

If this is the case, then he has suffered no less than anyone else in his life, and this has resulted in a twisted character.

"By the way, don't you know an executive who fell into the abyss? What experiences did that executive have?" Wendy asked.

What he was talking about was Dadalia, the eleventh executive officer of the Fools, a man who was both good and evil.

Wendy had also heard from travelers that this man was a fighting maniac loyal to the Queen.

However, he treats his family well and is a reliable partner in dangerous situations.

The most important thing is that he comes from Zhidong, a native of Zhidong.

Zhi Dong must also know a lot about fire and water, and he seems to have a familiar temperament. He is also very rich. It is said that he has paid many bills for the old man in front of him who is wandering around in the world.

Therefore, Wendy also considered whether to find an opportunity to get to know him and have a drink together.

Of course, what Wendy was thinking about was definitely not asking him to treat him, it was definitely just the free Fengshen simply wanting to make friends.

Well, that's it.

Hearing this, Zhongli recalled carefully: "Well... I did hear him say at the wine table that he encountered many monsters in the abyss and was scared to death."

"He's not contaminated?" Wendy looked at Zhongli in surprise.

Zhongli nodded: "Based on common sense, there really isn't. It's just that the abyss took away the light from his eyes."

"It's amazing. It's a miracle that I survived." Wendy sighed.

This also made him more curious about how this person survived. It must be an interesting material.

But when she thought about having to wait 2,600 years to get to know him, Wendy was no longer interested.

"However, according to what he said, he met a master in the abyss, and he also learned his martial arts from that master. Perhaps this is the reason why he was not devoured and polluted."

But An En, I'm afraid he won't have such good luck.

He doesn't have a family like a "gongzi". His family avoids him, fears him, and treats him as a monster.

Not only that, there are also different forces in the abyss.

He doesn't know which wave he encountered. Judging from his actions, it should be neither the wave of "Gongzi"'s master nor the traveler's blood relative.

And judging from the last fight, he is very skilled in using the power of the abyss. Constantly using the power of the abyss will cause great damage to himself. This may also be the reason why he wants to take Inagaki Megumi's body.

Thinking about it this way, he can be regarded as a tragedy caused by his unfortunate childhood.

Thinking of this, Wendy breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally feeling his emotions, Zhongli frowned: "Barbatos..."

"I know," Wendy sat up and looked at Zhongli with a half-smile, "He is an enemy. I sympathize with him, but I will never empathize with him."
