Genshin Impact: My roommate and I became funny Hilichurls

Page 13

Rosalyn: "..."

The air seemed to freeze at this moment.

"Barbatos!!!"

A furious roar nearly lifted the ceiling of the base. Rosalind stood up abruptly, her water glass shattering in her hand with a "crack." Ice elements exploded uncontrollably around her, instantly covering the entire room with a thick layer of frost.

"He actually... just gave away the Heart of God like that?!"

Her voice trembled with anger.

"And then a Hilichurl...took me...took me..."

She couldn't continue. The image of herself being crushed into a piece of paper by Gu Qian's "Taishan Meteorite Fall" flashed through her mind, and she immediately trembled with anger.

The lightning mage huddled in the corner, trembling: "My lady, please...please calm down..."

"calm?!"

Rosalyn turned her head sharply, her eyes so fierce they could kill.

"He is humiliating me! He is humiliating the entire Fools!"

She grabbed the Heart of God from the table, staring at it intently as if she wanted to crush it: "We went to great lengths to plan this, and he just tossed it out like it was a beggar?!"

The Lightning Sorcerer weakly added, "...And he even asked us to buy you tonics..."

Rosalyn: "..."

Her expression was completely distorted.

"Send the order!"

She growled through gritted teeth, "All Fools in this base, take your equipment and evacuate immediately!"

The Thunderfire Sorcerer was taken aback.

"No, no revenge?"

Rosalyn gave a cold laugh.

"Do you want to get hit by that Thunder King too? Or do you want to try out the other three guys' methods?"

The Thunderfire Sorcerer shuddered as he recalled Er Kang's "80!" Thunder Hammer, Zhang Chu's RPG, and Qing Yu's "Thousand-Year Kill Special Attack Bullet": "Your subordinate will arrange the evacuation immediately!"

Rosalind clenched the Heart of God, her eyes darkening: "Barbatos... I'll remember this grudge."

Venti, far away in Mondstadt, suddenly sneezed: "Hey, looks like someone's missing me~"

Chapter 14 Sunset Fruit, sweet, want some?

The sun is setting in Mondstadt.

The four sat in a circle, with a fragrant sunset fruit in the center, the atmosphere so solemn it seemed as if they were performing some kind of mysterious ritual.

When Ying and Paimon approached, they saw this bizarre scene.

"Everyone, what are you doing here?"

Paimon floated over curiously.

Qingyu raised his head and sighed heavily: "Paimon, and Ying, well, that's a long story..."

Half an hour ago in the backyard of the Knights of Favonius

Zhang Chu was squatting on the ground, with a flat house that looked like a children's pop-up book in front of him, and he was adjusting something with a screwdriver.

"Zhang Chu, what are you doing?"

Qingyu leaned closer and asked in confusion.

“I’m building an observation device. Since we can travel to Teyvat, does that mean that other parallel worlds of Teyvat also exist? I plan to test it.”

Er Kang and Gu Qian also gathered around, and the three of them watched as Zhang Chu installed the last "flat window" on the cardboard house, and then—

"It's done."

Zhang Chu pressed the switch, and the observation machine started with a "hum," and the windows of the flat house suddenly emitted an eerie blue light.

"boom--!!"

The next second, the window flew out as if it had been blown up, and slapped right onto Er Kang's face, who was watching the show.

"Holy crap! Where did I get this?!"

A clear male voice came from the machine.

The four looked closely—

A young man dressed in black and wearing a white mask climbed out of a window hole in a flat-roofed house, casually brushing off non-existent dust from his pants.

"This outfit is...!"

The four people's pupils dilated in shock, and they exclaimed in unison, "Bai Luo?!"

"Oh? Interesting."

Bai Luo clapped his hands, a slight smile playing on his lips beneath the mask.

"A talking Hilichurl? And it even knows my name?"

His gaze swept over the four of them, lingering for a couple of seconds on the enormous bottle of Coca-Cola in Gu Qian's hand, before he suddenly understood: "I see."

The next second, a "sweet" sunset fruit appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he handed it over with a smile:

"Sunset fruit, it's sweet, want some?"

Causality Weapon: Bai Luo's Sunset Fruit!

"Put this guy back in right now!!"

Zhang Chu emitted a sharp, explosive sound, his voice splitting into two.

"This thing is more dangerous than a galactic destruction bomb!!"

Gu Qian reacted extremely quickly, grabbing Bai Luo by the back of his collar with his enormous hand, lifting him up like a kitten, and shoving him into the empty window of the flat-roofed house without hesitation—

"Wait! I haven't—"

With quick reflexes, Er Kang retrieved the flying window and slammed it back into place.

Zhang Chu shut down the machine at the speed of light, and Qingyu and Erkang immediately pounced on it, quickly dismantling the flat house into pieces. Finally, they didn't forget to set it on fire and burn it to ashes, scattering the ashes into the Fruit Wine Lake.

With a combination of physical and magical seals, Bai Luo is guaranteed to never be able to climb out again!

On the other side, Teyvat of Bairo

Bai Luo, who had been forcibly deported, stood in the wilderness, his mask askew: "...???"

He tried to activate his intangibility ability, but found no response: "Strange, intangibility doesn't work on them?"

However, his attention was quickly drawn to the spoils in his hands—

"Hehe, anyway, I'm not losing out~"

He shook the oversized bottle of Coca-Cola he had swiped from Gu Qian and happily unscrewed the cap.

"It's been so long since I've had this!"

"Gulp gurgle—burp!"

Bai Luo wiped his mouth, looked at the empty wilderness, and suddenly grinned mischievously: "But... if we can get through once, we can get through a second time~"

He casually pulled out a sunset fruit and tossed it lightly: "Next time, I'll bring some 'souvenirs'~"

Back to the present - Mondstadt

"...And so, his sunset fruit remained."

Qingyu pointed to the "sweet" fruit on the ground, his expression more serious than ever before.

Ying and Paimon stared at the Sunset Fruit, which exuded an enticing sweet fragrance, and fell into an eerie silence.

Ying was lost in thought, not because the fruit was particularly powerful.

Instead, the memories of the four of them were played out in her mind like a holographic projection!

From Zhang Chu building the observation device, to Bai Luo climbing out, and then to Gu Qian stuffing the person back in... the whole process was so clear that it was as if she had experienced it herself!

"What kind of weird ability is this?!"

Ying rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on.

"How did you manage to do that?"

Paimon, on the other hand, was simply thinking about how powerful this Sunset Fruit was.

She floated closer to the fruit and sniffed it with her little nose: "It smells so sweet!"

Qingyu sighed and explained, "The Sunset Fruits that Bai Luo touches will revert to their ancestral form and become 'Ancient Demon God-level Sour Fruits'."

"Ancient... sour fruit?"

Zhang Chu added, "Simply put, it's ten thousand times more acidic than ordinary Ancient Sunset Fruit, so acidic that it can make a demon cry on the spot, so acidic that Dvalin would rather endure another Thousand Years of Death than taste a single bite."

"Huh? It's sour?"

Paimon looked at the sunset fruit, which smelled very sweet, with a puzzled expression. "How come this thing is sour?"

“We’re considering whether to try it. We have treatment options, but the psychological damage from this stuff isn’t so easy to heal.”

Qingyu's explanation made Paimon's little face scrunch up.

She drifted closer to the golden fruit, its enticing sweet fragrance reaching her nose, but the four's wary expressions made her hesitate.

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

Yinghu picked up the Sunset Fruit with suspicion and examined it carefully in the sunlight.

The peel is crystal clear, and you can even see the honey flowing inside.

The four's inner monologue at this moment:

Qingyu: [This girl is doomed.]

Er Kang: [The market's open! The market's open! How many seconds can she hold out?]
