Zongman: Complete Guide to Characters

night.

The streets outside the window are still full of lights and people. The office workers' social events have just begun, and students are out in groups for team-building activities.

Yeyue sat at her desk, flipping through her newly bought phone, downloading various commonly used apps: SNS, Line...

The contact list is blank again.

Yeyue sighed.

I always feel like my life has been restarted.

Speaking of which, this "again" is so annoying.

In the living room, a celebrity concert is playing on TV.

The young man with chestnut short hair and a gentle and amiable smile on his lips greeted the audience: "Welcome to the Fortte concert! The first song I will bring to you is..."

Push the door open and come out.

Yeyue glanced at A Ling who was slumped on the bed. A Ling had been like this since he came back from the street.

What was strange was that Kana looked tired when I came back. She sat quietly on the balcony facing the palace for a long time, and when I asked her what was wrong, she just half-closed her eyes and said nothing.

Today I encountered a few possible targets, but they were all of a type I couldn't understand. Funny, sarcastic... they might be my lifelong enemies.

"Hmm~" Ling looked even more tired.

If possible, she wanted to return to Tokyo or Miyagi immediately after defeating Witch Night - in short, anywhere would be fine, but not here!

"moon."

"what?"

"It's this." The gentle girl stretched out her fair and slender hand, and a small amulet lay in her soft palm. "I don't know if it will work, but please wear it."

"Exorcist?"

An idea suddenly flashed through her mind and she blurted it out.

"Yes, I hope it will have some effect."

Kanna said, frowning in some confusion, "Rei and I don't have the knowledge of the demon slayer system, so... we can only do this much."

"That's enough. Thank you for worrying about me, Kanna."

She put on a relaxed smile, accepted the amulet, and prepared to carry it with her from now on.

She definitely didn't want to experience being possessed by a monster for no apparent reason again.

When the song ended on TV, the idol boy waved to the audience, triggering a crazy response from fans.

"Fudou! Fudou!" "Asakura Fudou!! I love you!" "Ahh——"

click-

After turning off the TV, Yeyue pressed his temples with a headache.

Idol concerts are really too noisy. It’s better to go there and feel the atmosphere.

This idol who is a younger brother has been quite popular recently. Yeyue knows a little about him, but not much.

"Is Yue sure she wants to go to Inarizaki?"

"Yes."

"So, do you still want to go for the advanced exam?"

With her long hair tucked up beside her ears, Kana glanced over. Yeyue was a little dazzled by the girl's golden eyes spreading across the green grass.

Suddenly realizing something, I looked at her with burning eyes, "Can I not go?" Let me be promoted directly to the second grade?

"sure."

Kanna smiled, "I'll take care of it on Yue's behalf."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Shinna."

This place is not close to Hyogo Prefecture. It is not cost-effective to run back and forth in the scorching sun for an entrance exam, and there is a great risk of getting lost.

"Okay. Which class do you want to be in? Or is there anyone you want to be in the same class with?"

Hidden behind the folding fan, the girl's smile is pure and gentle, and the revealed golden green color is as soft as water.

"……ah--"

He glanced at her somewhat guiltily.

Sometimes Yeyue felt that she couldn't hide anything from Shennai.

"...I'll think about it."

Although it is speculated that there is a high probability that there will be captureable targets in Inarizaki's volleyball team, who knows exactly?

By the way, the spring high school should be about to start at this time, so the volleyball team should be training in the gym, right?

Do you want to go and take a look first?

If there are no captureables, please, Kanna, there is still time to change your mind and go to another school...

For example, what was the name of the school of the three people I met during the day? Shitenhoji?

Although you have a lot of points now, you still can't take it lightly. You should at least keep one or two targets around you who can continuously improve your favor.

"Kanna, I'm sorry, I'll just take the exams on my own. Sorry for going back on my word."

"It's ok."

The girl still smiled gently, "If it's just a small matter like transferring schools, I can always increase Yue's margin of error."

The girl tugged at the hem of her bright yellow skirt as she walked deeper into the corridor. "If you can't adapt to Inarizaki in the future, I can help you transfer to another school. Please feel free to bother me."

The gentle voice lingered in the moonlight, "Well, I'll be leaving now."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of a folding fan opening and closing, and the bright yellow figure disappeared.

"Out hunting?"

Yeyue pointed in the direction where the girl disappeared.

"right?"

Ling tilted his head.

"You're not going?"

Generally speaking, A Ling should be the most active in this kind of thing. After all, this girl feels that this is her responsibility.

"Don't go."

She shook her head, and her long silver hair swayed. Under the warm light, the shining luster of her long hair was not as cold as under the scorching sun.

"There are many strong people here, and they don't need me."

"right."

Yeyue chuckled.

This is the bustling center of Osaka, and there are more security personnel in various central systems than before.

Ah Ling blinked his icy blue eyes and stared at him. He lay on the sofa, crossed his legs and swayed, "Game?"

"Want to play a game?"

As Yeyue spoke, she stood up and groped the drawer under the TV cabinet. The only game card in the house was the one she bought when she was in junior high school.

"Ah."

The girl got up and went to her room to look for something.

"what?"

Just as she took out the game that the two of them had already broken, she saw a white figure disappear behind her own door.

After waiting for a moment, the girl in white came back with brisk steps, holding a game cartridge that she had never seen before. She sat on the ground in front of the sofa and waved the game box in her hand towards herself.

"Let me see."

Yeyue leaned forward curiously.

When did Ling buy a game like this?

The cover of the cassette box features a clear sky with blue sky and white clouds, and a stone staircase leading to an exquisitely carved stone door.

The protagonist is a girl with short golden hair and a white alien-style skirt that is particularly eye-catching. The girl presses one hand on the stone door, as if she is about to push the door open and step inside at the next moment.

The carefully designed title is marked at the top of the cassette box - Teyvat Love Song.

Love game? Ling actually got it?

A Ling inserted the cartridge into the game slot, and Ye Yue took the cartridge box and read the game instructions.

[This is a world where those chosen by God can obtain the Eye of God and guide the power of elements.

Players will play a mysterious character named "Traveler" and embark on an adventure to find their own brother. During the journey, they will meet partners with different personalities and unique abilities, and work with them to defeat powerful enemies, find lost relatives, or write a love story that may be plain or tortuous. 】

"You didn't buy it yourself?"

"Yes, it's a gift."

When I went to Tokyo for a meeting, I happened to run into a red-haired magical girl who came back to report on her mission.

The other party seemed to have an inexplicable sense of gratitude and fear towards him, and stuffed everything in his hand into his hand, including this game cartridge.

Yeyue sat on the sofa with her chin propped up. The silver-haired girl sat cross-legged on the ground at her feet.

She wasn't too interested in this kind of game, as her life was already a large-scale strategy game. But seeing Ling's high interest, she felt embarrassed to interrupt him.

This should be the first time this kid plays a love game. Does love even exist in his mind?

[Please select your initial attributes. The player's initial attributes will determine the first impression and favorability of the capture character when they first meet the player. ]

Yeyue searched online and found that each attribute can be further improved during the journey, but the initial points added are also very important.

For example, the story of the corresponding character can only be unlocked when the combat power reaches a certain level.

"Which character do you like?"

Yeyue held the phone close to her. "This Fatui executive Tartaglia is a battle maniac. If you want to capture him, you need to have a high combat value to maintain your favorability. The boy named Xingqiu must have a certain literary accomplishment. In addition, if you want to capture the gods, you must have a certain combat power and a very high charm value..."

Ah Ling nodded. Although everything she heard entered her mind, the girl who had no love feelings at all silently added all the values ​​to her combat power.

[You caught an unidentified floating object, and it greeted you, "Thanks to you, otherwise I would have drowned!"

An unidentified floating object named Paimon requests to join your team...

—Gladly agree

—Carry it with you as emergency food]

Food? You want to have so much fun right from the start? That's not good, right?

Ah Ling widened his eyes slightly.

She had no hobby of eating humans, but Ling didn't want to agree, so she was in a dilemma for a while.

"...Zero, the option below was just a joke. Also, I think this guide's little mascot should be a mandatory companion."

Yeyue observed her reaction for a while and patted her shoulder helplessly.

After spending every day with her, she could sometimes understand what the other person was thinking even if the other person didn't speak.

"Oh."

Ah Ling calmed down and decided that it was fine as long as she didn't eat anyone. She chose [Agree with pleasure].

With random operations, the blonde girl in strange clothes ran all over the map.

"He did a good job in fighting, too."

"..."

[“Traveler, would you like to have a drink together?” Kaeya invites the player

— Declined

- If you come any closer to me, I'll scream

-If you call me dad, I will agree

—Gladly agreed]

[Diluk sees that it is getting late, and invites you to stay in his manor for one night

-No, I'm already taken.

—Thank you for the invitation but decline

-If you want to sleep with me, I'll agree

-OK】

[Fischl discovered a mysterious ancient ruins and invites you to explore it together

- I have other things to do

—What ancient ruins are you talking about? It’s obviously just a tribe of Hillilites, right?

—Fischl always finds something interesting

—Then let’s go together】

"Hiss - the game developers understand the mental state of the players very well. There is always one crazier option among the options."

Yeyue sighed.

"…That's too rude."

The silver-haired girl shook her head slightly.

He always chose the most normal rejection option and maintained a distant and polite attitude towards every character.

Even when two or three people showed obvious affection for the protagonist and invited her to participate in additional plots, she ignored and rejected them without hesitation.

Then he galloped all the way to the Hillilite camp in the wild.

Yeyue watched her ignore the many playable characters, both male and female, and run all the way from an area called Mondstadt to the next Liyue area.

Except for the combat value, the attributes are pitifully low.

She suddenly felt a little sad. If the system she had was placed on Ling, the other party would definitely not live to see tomorrow.

It is said on the Internet that this game is very playable. You can travel through seven countries with your chosen partner, or you can be affectionate everywhere and flirt with all the women without getting hurt.

While searching for reviews online, Ye Yue suddenly felt that the girl sitting below and in front of him had her originally smooth silver hair suddenly become fluffy, with a few strands of messy hair sticking up.

Why did you suddenly get so angry?

Yeyue looked at the game screen, which showed [Character Dead].

"Let me see. I can find the character Zhongli and build a good relationship with him. Then I can temporarily invite him to join my team and the game will be easier..."

Yeyue read out the online strategy guide and scratched his head. A love game actually requires completing levels and fighting bosses.

Ah Ling curled his lips and chose to revive and start fighting again. He chose to fight a monster to the death.

Ling's operating skills have improved visibly with each character's death.

"Have you fought? That's pretty impressive!"

Yeyue glanced at her in surprise.

What a tough little girl.

Arriving at Inazuma by boat, Ling controlled the character to politely thank the generous female captain.

Inazuma's situation is more complicated than that of Liyue and Mondstadt.

It was just like leaving a novice village. The level and strength of the monsters had also increased a lot.

However, there are many characters willing to lend a helping hand. It is even said online that although the difficulty of the Inazuma world boss has increased, the characters in Inazuma are easier to defeat than the other, and there are many endings.

Inazuma's face as the God of Thunder appeared in the air, and without saying a word, he chopped down with his sword.

Hiss——Without some fighting power, I really can’t stand the contact.

"The guide says that if your charm is above a certain level and your combat power is also good, there is a chance that you can attract the real Thor to talk to you, and you can skip the battle. It is also a good opportunity to improve your favorability."

Ye Yue swiped her phone, looking at her character's pitifully low charm value and the high charm value on the report, and spread her hands, "But we can't do it anymore, we can only fight hard."

"A Ling, come on! Bite her!"

"Yeah." Ling nodded and his eyes became serious.

In the same way, a traveler went up and confronted them directly, refusing the help of a young man named Maplebara Manye.

After several hard fights, he narrowly defeated the opponent by relying on his grasp of the cooldown time of skills and the omissions of skills.

Ling put down the handle and moved his stiff shoulders.

Yeyue also stretched.

“This game is pretty good, with a high degree of freedom.”

"Ah."

It's OK, the difficulty of the BOSS is acceptable, but there are always some people coming up for no reason, which is annoying.

Without any awareness that this was a love game, Ling stretched out his body and thought so.

"It's getting late."

She looked at the clock on the wall and saw it was almost eleven o'clock. "I'm going to take a shower, review and go to bed. I have other things to do tomorrow."

"matter?"

"Well, I'm going to Inarizaki to take the grade skipping test. If I pass, I can skip to the second grade."

"Oh." A Ling blinked his icy eyes, "Accompany?"

"It's okay. You don't have to accompany me, Ling. I'll be back soon. I have the amulet Kanna gave me to protect myself, and I'll call you in time if anything happens."

"……Oh."
