Genshin Impact: Paimon and I are both Ying’s emergency food

"Hmm...are all secret realms so foggy?" It also has its own lighting system (torches, alchemical lighting equipment).

Tan Ningsu looked up at the "sky" of the secret realm, then looked around.

"Paimon doesn't know."

Paimon said, scratching his head.

Talking about Susu's strange observation point, she had never thought about this aspect before.

"Perhaps there are different secret realms that we haven't encountered yet."

Ying suggested another possibility.

"makes sense!"

Tan Ningsu nodded and said.

It would be a torture if the environment and colors of the secret realm were all the same. It might just be that they have seen it too rarely.

"Susu, what are you doing?"

Paimon looked at Tan Ningsu who was drawing on a notebook with a pen, flew to her and said.

"Yes, a map?!"

Paimon exclaimed after seeing what Tan Ningsu was drawing.

"It's just a rough route map. It's far from the maps circulated in the Adventurer's Guild."

"It's considered as part of the props I'll use to complete the mission after I return."

Tan Ningsu sighed and said.

Surveying and mapping is a profound subject, and she can't even reach the entry level.

The cartographers in the Adventurer's Guild are the real big guys. Even if they don't have a mature theoretical system (Teyvat's theoretical system is weird), the brilliance of their genius is always difficult to conceal.

“That’s pretty impressive too!”

"If we go to an unfamiliar place in the future and we don't have a map, we might have to rely on your skill to find the way!"

Paimon said encouragingly.

Tan Susu is obviously very capable, but she is always so modest and unconfident. If she wasn't one of Paimon's best partners, Paimon would have ignored her long ago! (They clearly agreed to be emergency food (pendants) together!)

"Well~thank you for the compliment, Paimon!"

Tan Ningsu said with emotion.

She never expected that the useless things she learned in her spare time could help someone one day!

"There are hillbillies ahead, you two should be careful, I'll be back soon."

Ying signaled the two men to stop, took out his weapons, gave them instructions, and then walked forward.

"Ya!"

The angry voices of the Qiuqiu people rang out in the empty and quiet secret realm.

Tan Ningsu and Paimeng watched from the sidelines, admiring Ying's heroic figure.

"Come down."

Ying looked up at the two people on the steps.

"This secret realm is so huge..."

After the three of them had been wandering in the secret realm for about three hours, Tan Ningsu closed the notebook with the map on it and sighed.

"Ying, do you want to continue exploring this secret realm?"

Tan Ningsu asked the people around him.

"Walk a little further and then go back."

"The Adventurer's Association can't possibly expect us to explore this secret realm in one go."

Ying replied.

Tan Ningsu nodded.

According to the records of the Adventurer's Association, many secret realms in Teyvat have not actually reached 100% exploration.

In addition to the danger (there are many kinds of monsters in the secret realm), there are also many decryption mechanisms in the secret realm.

Most adventurers do not have a very high level of mastery of mechanical engineering and runeology. It is said that this is because this knowledge is controlled by the Academy of theology (Sumeru's theocratic system, the highest academic city in Teyvat. Tan Susu: What a strange political system. Can those who engage in academics... really be good at politics?) and cannot be easily circulated.

Tan Ningsu could understand this.

The mechanical studies and runes of Teyvat are very difficult, just like learning advanced mathematics, if you don’t know how to do it, you just can’t do it.

The tactic of doing a lot of questions won't work here.

If the alchemy that Mr. Timaeus studied can be said to be a combination of chemistry and biology, then theories like runes and mechanisms are probably about making missiles and atomic bombs...

In short, it is not something that everyone can learn, and it is also very dangerous.

It is not unreasonable for the Council of the Church to supervise it.

"However, there are really a lot of hillbillies and slimes lurking in this secret realm..."

Paimeng leaned on Tan Ningsu's shoulder a little tiredly and said.

"Obviously, Ying is the one who is tired, okay? Why do you look so tired? We have been slacking off..."

Tan Ningsu said with contempt.

"How can I not be tired?! Flying is very tiring, okay!"

Paimeng immediately flew in front of Tan Ningsu, put his hands on his hips and said angrily.

"Aren't you quite active now? You don't look tired at all..."

Tan Ningsu tapped Paimeng's forehead and said.

"You're obviously a rookie who's even more useless than me, Susu. Why don't you feel tired at all after walking for such a long time?"

Paimon muttered.

"Well... you didn't tell me I hadn't noticed..."

"Although I took some breaks along the way, I was actually very focused the whole time. After all, the route to this secret realm is a bit complicated, like a maze, full of twists and turns, and monsters would come out to harass me from time to time. In this situation, Ying even showed a hint of fatigue on her face..."

"But I don't seem to feel anything?"

Tan Ningsu thought about it for a while and a confused look appeared on his face.

it's wired......

How strange!

"Don't think too much, just let it go."

Ying patted Tan Ningsu's head and spoke calmly.

The secret realm of Teyvat is itself a small alien space. The time laws here are not exactly the same as those outside Teyvat, and sometimes they may even condense separately for a period of time.

It is probably because Susu is still not used to the climate in Teyvat, and after coming to the incomplete and chaotic secret realm, side effects occurred.

for example......

"After we explore this part of the space, let's go."

Ying gently pinched Tan Ningsu's face.

"It hurts a bit, Ying."

Tan Ningsu, who was pinched, rubbed his face and said.

"You don't even have a red mark on your face, stop acting like a spoiled brat!"

Paimon accused from the side.

"Eh?!"

Tan Ningsu was a little unconvinced.

Normally speaking, if Ying pinched her face with that much force, it would definitely leave a mark, right?

Could it be that my pain ran away from home? !

For example, time froze for Susu, and her body remained at the moment she entered the secret realm, but her senses did not feel abnormal.

Watching Su Su and Paimeng playing around, Ying added silently in her heart.

"It's like solving a puzzle..."

After Tan Ningsu and the other two entered the last room of this exploration, Tan Ningsu looked at the empty room and the four elemental monuments in the four corners of the room and said.

"Let me see......"

Relying on his ability to fly, Paimon quickly returned to the middle where Tan Ningsu and Ying were standing.

"It is engraved with elemental patterns of the four elements: wind, thunder, fire, and ice."

Paimon told Tan Ningsu and Ying what he saw.

"It's a simple puzzle, but the materials are hard to get..."

"Susu, do you have any elemental concentrate left?"

Ying asked Tan Ningsu who was standing beside her.

The puzzle of using elements to activate elemental monuments...is very common, but also very troublesome.

"There's some left, and it happens to be Thunder Fire Ice."

Tan Ningsu flipped through the bag and said. (Although Ying's backpack is very useful, you can't always put everything in Ying's backpack and ask Ying to take it out all the time. It's very troublesome!)

Element concentrates are single-use items because once opened, they will react with the outside world and reduce their purity.

"Well, with the wind element that I can control, it just meets the requirements."

Ying said.

"What are you waiting for!"

"Let's solve the puzzle quickly and see if there is any treasure!"

Paimon said with a money-grubbing look.

After the three of them worked together to light up the elemental monument, a treasure chest suddenly appeared in the center of the room.

“No matter how many times I’ve seen it, I still can’t help but complain about the way this treasure chest appears. It’s just like the reward for completing a game.”

Tan Ningsu started to complain again.

"Hey, maybe this is a reward from the treasure chest god~"

Paimeng didn't care about Tan Ningsu's complaints at all. After all, this was not the first time Tan Ningsu had complained about him.

"Uh... Did Teyvat really send the strange god you mentioned?"

Treasure chest god... doesn't sound impressive at all...

The complaining character Tan Susu is online again.

"Oh, that kind of detail is not important~"

Paimon looked at the glittering treasure chest, and his eyes sparkled like the treasure chest.

"It's almost time, let's go back."

Ying spoke.

"Uh-huh."

“Delicious food~ Delicious food~”

The origin of emergency food No. 1 and No. 2:

One day before coming to Mondstadt.

“Ah-chu!” “Ah-chu!”

Tan Ningsu and Paimeng sneezed at the same time.

One is due to a cold, and the other is simply due to nasal discomfort.

"Paimon, do you think I'm useless? I haven't helped Ying at all and I'm always causing trouble for her..."

Tan Ningsu looked at Ying who was busy taking care of her health, and spoke in a low voice to Paimeng who was accompanying her.

"Why do you think so?"

Paimon asked in confusion.

"Paimon, at least you can show Ying the way, but I can't carry it on my shoulders or lift it with my hands, and I can't speak (the common language of Teyvat). I feel like Ying's pendant..."

"The only use is probably to serve as emergency food when Ying can't find any food?"

When Tan Ningsu finished speaking, his tone and words were slightly sarcastic.

"Alas!"

"Susu, your home is so dangerous. Humans are actually being treated as food!"

Because he hadn't learned the common language of Teyvat yet, the joke didn't sound like a joke to Paimon at all.

"No, I was joking!"

Tan Ningsu immediately started explaining to Paimeng with gestures and excitement.

It seems that I need to speed up the learning of the common language of Teyvat.

Tan Ningsu made up his mind in his heart.

"Paimon doesn't seem to be of much use..."

After figuring out what Tan Ningsu said, Paimeng spoke a little embarrassedly.

"Before I met SuSu, I was able to rely on Ying to take care of me. Otherwise, if I were alone, I would have been eaten by the monster!"

Having said that, Paimon couldn't help but tremble.

"It seems that both of us can be called emergency food..."

Paimon rubbed his head and said.

"If you are emergency food number 1, then I am emergency food number 2~"

Paimon said in a brisk tone.

"Paimon is the best Paimon in the world!"

Tan Ningsu suddenly hugged Paimeng, tears of emotion flowing uncontrollably.

It's great that she can meet Paimon and Ying. 』
