Genshin Impact: Please don’t bully me, fellow stragglers

To the Winter Palace, the tallest rebellious ice tower.

Nanke followed the servant up the stairs.

The commander-in-chief with broad shoulders and shoulders stood at the top of the steps. His beard and hair were all white, and his eyes were like stars, looking down at them.

"Arecchino, I don't remember that the sixth seat is a woman." Piero's voice was hoarse and steady.

"You know that the doctor has been a little crazy lately. He stepped in and took the [skirmishers] to who knows where. I'm already looking for them, but I'm not sure where they are yet."

The servant turned sideways and introduced Nanke behind him to Piero.

"Her name is Nanke. She is a member of the sixth seat. She is also a member of Xumi Grass God."

Piero squinted his eyes and examined Nanke.

"The Adventer?" he asked.

"Yes." Nanke raised her hand, and light spots of various elements gathered and danced in her palm.

Piero pondered slightly: "Please wait a moment."

Piero turned and moved forward.

At the end of the tower was an ice door. He reached the door in only ten steps. The clear ice vaguely revealed the scene on the other side, which was an icy white light.

Piero brushed his clothes and knelt down on one knee in front of the door: "Your Majesty, the sixth seat was taken away by the second seat, and another descendant requested an audience."

There was no echo within the ice gate.

After a while.

"Yes." I don't know what kind of divine revelation he received. Piero lowered his head further, as if suppressing grief, and took a breath, "That side of the second seat... is."

Piero did not stand up, but kept his kneeling posture and looked back at Nanke: "Her Majesty the Queen has granted you an audience."

The servant stepped forward without saying a word, and bowed his head and knelt down respectfully in front of the door.

Nanke hesitated for two seconds, walked through the middle of them, and came to the door.

The solid ice was smooth and flat, like a mirror, reflecting Nanke's figure completely and clearly, suddenly turning into an entrance and exit from the center.

"Please come in."

The female voice is low and gentle, like tangible ice and snow, making people feel chilled all over when they hear it.

The scene on the other side is still unclear.

Nanke held his breath and concentrated, stepping into the ice gate.

The entrance behind him made a fragile and fragile sound like condensation of ice, and was sealed again after the audience passed through.

What caught Nanke's eyes was white top and bottom, more ice and snow.

The cold air in the narrow space was overwhelming, and ice crystals of all sizes ignored gravity and crowded everywhere as far as the eye could see, leaving only a narrow path for one person to pass in front of the door.

At the end of the narrow path, a huge piece of polygonal ice as high as the ceiling stood quietly, reflecting Nanke's footsteps and breathing.

The space filled with only ice and snow was extremely silent. Nanke looked at it and took a breath of white steam, then lowered his voice and came to its feet.

A human body is faintly revealed in the ice with scattered light and shadow.

The crown of thorns held up her hair as white as snow, and the slender woman bowed her head in prayer.

Tranquil among the ice, frozen like a sculpture.

"God of Ice." Nanke spoke solemnly to her, "I am the messenger from Xumi, negotiating with you."

"The Adventer."

The ice god inside did not move, but the god's voice actually sounded, no longer separated by the door, showing real pressure.

"You are not the person I expected to meet. Explain your origins."

Nanke couldn't breathe. He lowered his head and no longer looked directly at her. Only then did his suppressed chest feel a little freer: "I am..."

Her own voice echoed monotonously in the transparent space.

It vaguely gives rise to the illusion that there are no other people here.

After introducing himself, Nan Colton raised his eyes again and looked at the ice in front of him: "...We do not deny your plan of man-made Adventers. This is undoubtedly a great undertaking. But at the moment when the Seventh Adventer is about to be born, awakening Heavenly principles no longer have meaning, and there is no need for you to continue collecting God’s Hearts.”

"Have you brought the last Fire God's Heart?" Ice God only asked.

Nan Ke hesitated: "...Yes."

"As the dependents of the God of Wisdom, you should know that from the moment you disappear into the World Tree, the Heavenly Law is no longer the Heavenly Law, but the incarnation of the World Tree."

The ice god's voice made no waves.

"It stipulates God, stipulates people, stipulates space and time, and does not allow any blasphemy or resistance. What do you think is necessary for the world to awaken such a consciousness?"

"...There is no need." Nanke was cautious and determined.

Ice God seemed to smile slightly: "So, we do not want to awaken the laws of heaven, but - 'awaken and rewrite' the laws of heaven."

Does the Ice God know that the descendants have the authority to rewrite the world?

Nanke was stunned, and then thought of the person kneeling outside the door now, the chief executive of the Fools, Piero.

It is said that Piero is a descendant of Canrea, and like Albedo's mother Jin, both served in the court of the last Canrea. It is not surprising to know this.

"You created the Adventer at all costs just to carry out the rewriting?" Nanke asked.

"Yes." Ice God affirmed, "He will surpass all transcendents, possess the highest wisdom in the world, and hold the power to control the gods."

No wonder the doctor is willing to sacrifice his life for the ice god's plan.

The doctor's morbid research heart simply cannot resist this temptation.

Nanke couldn't hide his shock: "If the rules of the world can really be rewritten, the doctor will be able to unlock the shell of the world alone without the need for seven descendants..."

"Unlock the shell of the world?" Ice God interrupted her and let out a laugh.

The divinity gathered at this moment, and the god's voice was filled with sad emotions.

"The end will come one day, and the precious Heart of God will not be used for destined things. Have you heard of the Third Advent?"

"I heard... the heart of God is his remains." Nanke said.

"He is still my lover, the one who first ruled this snow country." The Ice God's small smile also faded, showing his coldness, "Human, answer me. If you go to great lengths to collect the scattered bones of your lover, you What would you like to do?”

Nanke looked up at the figure in the ice, vaguely aware of the other person's intention: "You can't...!"

The Ice God could not hide his sadness and determination: "I will rewrite the unfair life and death, and restore the lost person..."

"That's not the case."

A light childish voice suddenly sounded.

The ice god's words disappeared.

"Although there is such an opportunity, the rule that needs to be rewritten should be 'the people of Teyvat will return to the false starry sky after death.'"

A small hand reached into Nanke's eyes and waved five white fingers.

"Hehe~ Lower your head! Please look here!"

Nanke took a step back before looking further.

I don't know when a little girl with blue horns and long lavender hair appeared at her feet, smiling happily.
