The journey to Teyvat from the Abyss Mage

After Qiqi left, Luo Mu was immersed in emotion for a long time. He felt sorry for Qiqi and was also worried about the great war that might come in the future.

And the strange thing is that Xiao also seems to have some strange feelings.

Alas, who said that immortals have no worries? Luo Mu sighed deeply.

The subsequent hunts seemed uneventful. With the experience of facing the enemy for the first time, Luomu would never give Karma a chance to move. His moves were killing moves. And because most of his attacks were spell attacks on groups, his speed of killing enemies was even a little faster than Xiao's. This made Xiao's evaluation of Luomu go up a little.

By noon, the two had walked around the Wangshu Inn and had wiped out most of the evil spirits. Luo Mu had naturally gained a lot. A full 45 pieces of demon god resentment were quietly lying in the system waiting for him to use.

In addition, [Air Boost], [Vine Trap], [Rock Pillar], [Wind of Prayer]... a series of skills, big and small, flashed in his mind, as if they were waiting for Luo Mu to use them.

So far, from Mondstadt to Liyue, Luomu has basically mastered all the skills and elements that ordinary monsters can use, and even upgraded them. Now, if you don't consider his own magic power, he is a living magic cannon that is proficient in all elements.

But at the same time, Luomu's shortcomings are also obvious. The first is that his melee ability still needs to be improved. Now, his swordsmanship is enough to deal with ordinary enemies, but once he encounters a real opponent, such as Xiao, Albedo and the like, without the opportunity to use magic assistance, he will basically be suppressed.

The second is that the skills he copied now were too low-level. The highest-level skill he could use now was obtained from the Frost Armor Hill King in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain. Although Luo Chuan could forcibly increase the power of his skills by relying on his powerful control over elements and the incredible ability to transfer elemental characteristics granted by the system, the starting point was too low after all. Moreover, if he wanted to increase the power, he had to spend time mobilizing the elements, which was really difficult to do in actual combat.

Luo Mu, the debt collector of the Fatui, also tried to kill them, but in the end he found that the Wolf King seemed to have only judged their species based on appearance. These guys were not so much monsters as transformed humans, and most of their abilities were achieved with the Evil Eye. Although in a broad sense, they can also be regarded as some kind of monsters, but on the one hand, they themselves do not have any strong abilities worth copying, and on the other hand, this is also a headache for Luo Mu. Although he has experienced many crises and wars, and seen a lot of death and killing, he still has a strange aversion to personally killing humans. Luo Mu himself also feels that this obsession is a bit hypocritical, but it is like a demon in his heart that entangles Luo Mu all the time, making it difficult for him to let go.

Never mind, I'll slowly overcome this mental obsession in the future, Luo Mu comforted himself.

Batman doesn't kill people yet...

When Luomu and Xiao returned to the inn, they found Ying and Paimeng waiting anxiously at the entrance of the inn. Luomu was very moved at first, thinking that Ying was waiting for him here. But when he got closer, he found something wrong: Ying seemed to have something extra on her.

Not to mention the scroll that Paimon is playing with, can you tell me where did you get this bag of treasure-hunting crow seals?

"Well... at first we wanted to wait for you, but seeing that you haven't come back for so long, Paimon and I decided to go out to look for you, and then..." Ying explained.

Then you wiped out a group of treasure-stealing gangs? Luo Mu's eyes twitched.

Travelers seem to be particularly energetic when they have gained something.

"Oh, forget it, let's go back and eat. You must be hungry after working so hard for so long." Luo Mu greeted Ying and Paimeng with a wry smile. Just as he was about to go back, Luo Mu suddenly turned around and found that Xiao was still standing there silently, with a cold look in his eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of loneliness.

Luo Mu: ...Did I see it wrong? The Great Sage Who Conquers Demons? Luo Mo?

"Um... do you want to come with us?" Luo Mu asked Xiao tentatively.

I thought Xiao would refuse, but what was even more unexpected to Luo Mu was that he actually stood beside Ying without saying a word, with a cold face and an expression that said, "I came because you invited me."

Luo Mu: ...Tsundere has no friends, immortal.

Anyway, a few minutes later, they sat down at the table Luo Mu had reserved yesterday. Yan Xiao piled dishes of delicacies on the table with a surprised look on his face, and occasionally glanced at Xiao who was sitting as straight as a log.

"How did you do it?" Yan Xiao pushed the extra portion of almond tofu that Luo Mu had specially ordered in front of Xiao, and asked carefully in Luo Mu's ear.

Luo Mu grinned and said uncertainly: "By... a noble soul and a pure heart?"

…………

After eating and drinking, Luo Mu and Ying slumped in their chairs without any image, and Paimon even lay directly on Ying's body without moving.

Luo Mu patted the purse Lisa gave him with satisfaction. After squandering for so many days, the Mora in his wallet seemed to have not decreased at all. Thinking of this, Luo Mu's resentment towards Lisa seemed to dissipate a little.

Only Xiao, after eating two servings of almond tofu, still sat upright, and there was no sign of bulging in his abdomen.

"My lord, hiccup, sir, are you really full?" After satisfying his hungry stomach, Luo Mu even spoke casually. He lazily asked Xiao, "Do you want to eat something else?"

Xiao shook his head in silence, his eyes wandering over Luo Mu's face intentionally or unintentionally.

"Qiqi." He said suddenly.

"What?" Luo Mu and Ying didn't understand.

"Qiqi." Xiao repeated, "Why aren't you afraid of her?"

Luo Mu finally realized what Xiao was talking about. He shook his head, which had been dulled by the lack of food and clothing, and said with a smile, "Why should I be afraid of her?"

"She's a zombie, not a human."

"You are not a human either, should I be afraid of you?" Luo Mu asked back.

Xiao was stunned for a moment. Normally not good at speaking, he was left speechless by Luo Mu's simplest question.

"This is different." After a while, he said softly.

"No, it's the same." Luo Mu shook his head: "If you have been in the world for a long time, you will understand what I mean. Humans are creatures that naturally use subjective assumptions to replace the truth. They care more about how things look to them, rather than how they actually look."

"So, people never care about who Qiqi is. They just think zombies are bad, so they start to fear them for no reason. And if you are not handsome, your situation would not be much better than Qiqi's."

Xiao continued to remain silent. Luo Mu's outrageous comments did not change his expression in the slightest.

"then you……"

"But I care about what's under the skin." Luo Mu slowly sat up straight, his tone more firm than ever before: "In Qiqi, I see only a cute little girl who is trying hard to live. She is not a zombie. Her name is Qiqi, and she is a child who deserves to be loved. Her personality is far more noble than many beasts in human skin."

"Being a zombie or not doesn't determine a person's kindness." Luo Mu finally smiled and said, "Having karma doesn't determine it either."

Xiao was stunned once again. In his long life, he had never thought that he would hear such direct guidance from a junior.

But...it seems that Qiqi and I are really the same! He is an immortal, but he also has a heart, a heart that is purer than that of ordinary people, but also more sensitive.

"Thank you."

Luo Mu heard these two words squeezed out from between the thin lips, so he smiled and responded:

"You're welcome."

ps: Author: Luo Mu, remember your performance now, and say it again when you see Shen He! You are basically invincible in Liyue, I tell you!

Luo Mu: No! My heart will always belong to Ying, I will never betray her! (Unless she doesn't know)

Author:? I mean, what are you thinking about when I ask you to be friends with Shen He?

Luo Mu: ………
