Genshin Impact: I’m really not a daddy
Chapter 118 Just like being a thief
Late at night, in front of the Red King's palace, two guards were talking to each other.
"What do you mean, Lord Red King is searching for treasures everywhere?" the tall guard asked doubtfully.
"Hey, what else could it be for? It's not like you don't know that Mr. Red King has always been in love with the Flower Goddess."
"But, it seems that those treasures are not all that the Flower God would like, right?"
"Why do you care so much?" The short and fat guard was a little impatient.
"We are just guards, just do your job well. Besides, after all these years, what has Sir Red King done wrong?"
"Lord Red King is the noblest and most powerful god. We just need to listen to him. By the way, didn't your mother-in-law just give birth to a daughter recently? Why, don't you go home to spend time with your family?"
"Hey... stop talking." The tall guard suddenly became disappointed, shook his head and sighed.
"My daughter is cute...but there is already a boy and two children at home. How can we support the family if I don't come?"
"Hey, didn't you also find a wife? How is your relationship going?"
"What's going on... I blew it early!"
"You're still bragging? What's going on?"
"Hey..." the short and fat guard curled his lips and said angrily. "That woman told me to learn from Lord Red King and I must give her a gift during every festival."
"Bah, you even made a request to me. She is not the Flower Goddess. Hey, don't mention her. When the shift changes later, let's go have a drink. I'll treat you."
"Hey, hey, how can this be done? Please, please!"
"Don't compete with me..."
The two were arguing when a gust of wind suddenly passed between them. The tall guard shuddered, turned to look around, and subconsciously shrank his neck.
"You, did you feel it? There seemed to be something just now..."
"Stop thinking blindly. You're so tired that you're hallucinating." The short, fat guard patted his shoulder and said carelessly.
"Besides, this is Lord Red King's palace. Who dares to come here? Don't think too much. I'll treat you to a drink later!"
"Okay, then it's settled!"
Neither of them noticed that an outsider had entered the Red King's palace.
"These two people are pretty good at talking."
Bai Chu walked out of the darkness and muttered something softly. In his pocket, the Hanged Ghost poked his head out and asked doubtfully.
"Immortal, why didn't you come in just now and why did you have to wait there for a while?"
"Ahem... Immortals naturally have deep meanings when doing things, so don't worry about it."
Bai Chu coughed slightly and said seriously.
He didn't know how to say it. In fact, he was fascinated by it.
As I get older, I just like to listen to gossip, and I accidentally listen to it.
Fortunately, he didn't forget about business and sneaked in while the two guards were chatting.
"Sigh... don't tell me, the Red King's palace is really big."
In such a big palace, we still need to find the place where he keeps his treasures...
When will this be found?
Bai Chu sighed resignedly, hid his figure in the darkness, and moved forward quietly in the darkness.
Every time he encountered a room, he would listen at the door for a while to make sure no one was there before entering.
Although it was possible to detect it directly with elemental power... but in that case, he estimated that he would definitely be discovered by the Red King.
If he was not discovered, it was either because he was lucky and the Red King happened to go out at this time, or the Red King did it on purpose.
Of course, he found both of these unlikely.
"I said, have you never thought of coming in and taking a look before?"
After walking into another room and finding nothing, Bai Chu couldn't help but complain.
If only he could get acquainted with this guy, he wouldn't put so much effort into acting like a thief.
Hmm...there seems to be something wrong?
Forget it, forget it.
"I, I don't dare." The Hanged Man stuck his head out and said confidently.
"What if I am discovered by the Red King? I will die miserably!"
"You are not dead to begin with... Also, if you are discovered later, I will throw you here and let you fend for yourself."
"Wow! Immortal, Immortal! You can't do this!"
This hanged ghost is really...
Just because he is from Liyue, he is sure that he will not take action against the Liyue ghost. That's why I dare to pester him.
But he probably doesn’t know that not all immortals treat humans like him, and he doesn’t know whether this ghost is bold or timid...
Bai Chu complained in his mind, ignored his crying, and tried hard to sense the concentration of elemental power in the air.
Although you can't release elemental power to sense it, if you are careful, you still won't be discovered.
Soon, he felt a place where the elemental power fluctuated extremely strangely.
But that place is underground.
This palace is designed like a maze. By the time he found the basement, it was already half an hour later.
"Sage, are you sure the basement is here?"
The Hanged Man stuck his head out, looked at the walls on both sides, then looked at the empty ground, and asked doubtfully.
In his opinion, this place is obviously a dead end, right?
"Haha, this level of mechanism skills is nothing compared to this immortal."
Bai Chu snorted coldly, squatted down, and penetrated the elemental power into the ground.
This kind of mechanism technique, as long as you understand the structure, it can't be easier to open this basement or something.
Compared to the search process, Bai Chu had already opened this mechanism in less than a minute.
"Boom——"
With a loud bang, a downward staircase was revealed on the floor.
Feeling the elemental power undulating below, Bai Chu nodded. "Well, this should be it."
"Wow! It's such a big noise. It really doesn't matter!"
"I'm not even panicked. Why are you a ghost?" Bai Chu rolled his eyes and said angrily.
"Don't worry, I thought of it before turning on the mechanism, so I used magic to isolate the sound here in advance."
But...even so, the movement here can't cover up much.
Sigh...Ahmar, why did you build such a cumbersome mechanism when you have nothing to do? Even though I'm in my own home, I'm still afraid of someone coming... Really, I don't have any trust at all.
Bai Chu complained in his heart, completely unaware that he was the one who sneaked into other people's houses.
Bai Chu stopped thinking and walked into the basement.
The strange thing is that the stairs leading to the basement are not dim, but there are many lights on the walls on both sides.
There was obviously no fire and no mechanism in sight, but the lights were on, which made Bai Chu really greedy.
If time hadn't allowed, he would have wanted to take one back and study it carefully.
Without delay, Bai Chu quickened his pace and soon reached the basement.
When he saw the whole picture of the basement clearly, he couldn't stand it anymore.
"this…"
Bai Chu twitched the corners of his lips and couldn't help but smacked his lips.
Red King, it turns out you are still a rich man?
As soon as he entered the basement, the first thing he saw was gold and silver, which almost blinded him.
He had never seen so much gold in his previous life and this life combined! However, I saw a lot of various minerals.
Although he was greedy, he actually had little interest in the gold in front of him.
After all, this thing has no use for his mechanism skills, and his bag cannot accommodate such useless things.
"These are worthless." The hanged man didn't care much.
"Generally speaking, the outer stuff is not very valuable, the inner stuff is the good stuff!"
"Hmm...that makes sense."
Bai Chu forced his eyes away from the piles of gold and silver in front of him, coughed twice, and pretended to be calm.
Although I can't take it away...but I still feel really distressed.
If he had so much gold and silver in his previous life, would he have to be paid to go to the toilet all day long?
Become a capitalist directly on the spot!
"Look inside, the elemental fluctuations are coming from inside."
This kind of elemental fluctuation is very strange. The elemental power is full for one moment and lacking for another. It is very strange.
After crossing the Jinshan Mountain, the two continued to move forward. When he saw the thing that caused the elemental fluctuations, Bai Chu's eyes suddenly lit up.
It was a black sphere suspended in mid-air. After seeing the surroundings, Bai Chu finally understood what the Hanged Man meant by "I don't know how to describe it."
Using it as a radius, everything within half a meter of the surrounding body is "void", and it looks like it has been swallowed.
"Is it this one?"
"Yes, that's it!"
Bai Chu stepped forward, slowly stretched out his hand towards the sphere, not afraid that his arm would disappear.
"…really."
Just as he thought.
Looking at his arm disappearing into the void, Bai Chu showed an excited smile on his face.
Although the arm disappeared, he could still feel its presence. However, this arm cannot release elemental power.
"Wow wow wow! Immortal, you, what are you doing!"
The hanged man was so anxious that he couldn't speak clearly. Bai Chu had no time to pay attention to him and pulled his hand away.
When he escaped from the void, he felt a slight obstacle. Looking at his intact arm, Bai Chu smiled happily.
"Yeah...that's what I need."
Just as he thought, the ability of this thing is not "devour".
But "blockade".
Not only matter, but also space and elemental forces can be blocked.
Therefore, in nothingness, he cannot control elemental power.
"Hey, Immortal, your hands..."
"How did you take this thing away?"
Bai Chu interrupted the hanging man and asked without any explanation. The hanged man was stunned for a moment and quickly replied.
"Well, I, I waited for it to calm down before I put it away...I waited for several days!"
"...Okay, I shouldn't count on you."
Bai Chu shook his head and sighed.
Although I don't know what this thing is, its structure is extremely unstable.
The Hanged Man waited a few days for this thing to be stable. That was because he was lucky. When this thing is stable, he doesn't know how long he will have to wait here, but now there is not so much time for him to wait.
At this time, it’s time for the universal system to appear.
