Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

Gui Naifen even discovered that Liu Ying had washed the quilt—why did she wash the willow-white quilt that she had just received?

Gui Naifen couldn't even imagine what heinous things Liu Ying had done to Liu Bai's quilt in just one night.

Is there anything wrong with this place?

Gui Naifen caught up with Kujo Sara in two steps and asked with a grin.

"...Everything is fine, everyone is great."

Although most of them are Inazuma.

However, everyone else gets along well, and there are no major problems; everything is progressing steadily.

"And what about the boss? You two seem to get along very well, don't you?"

"A very good collaborator."

Kujo Sara kept a cold expression and showed no intention of discussing private matters.

"Once the general recovers, I would be very happy to welcome Lord Liu Bai to Inazuma to serve as an advisor or similar position."

"...Sara, has anyone ever told you that you can be boring at times?"

"People often say that."

Gui Naifen helplessly shrugged.

Okay, if that's how you see it, then go ahead and keep being boring. Of course, I'll take away one less opponent.

Huang Quan looked at the two people returning from the ranch, his eyes slightly puzzled: "...The ranch, what's there?"

Chapter 145 I'll smother you to death, you bastard!

"You're back?" Bai released Gui Naifen and Kujo Sara from a corner of the market. "You two didn't do anything naughty in the pot, did you?"

The more Liu Bai thought about it afterward, the more he felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the two of them.

"What nonsense are you talking about, boss?"

Gui Naifen rolled her eyes quite naturally.

Feeling guilty? What's there to feel guilty about?

Liu Bai should thank her for not taking the medicine!

"Alright, alright, off to buy groceries! Boss~ pocket money~"

"..."

Liu Bai, somewhat speechless, gave Gui Naifen a sum of money and let her skip away.

Then Liu Bai turned his gaze to Kujo Sara, a hint of questioning in his eyes.

Kujo Sara paused for a moment, then nodded, then shook her head.

It means something has happened, but there's no need to worry too much.

……should?

Kujo Sara was still slightly puzzled—after all, she saw that Koko had taken the potion.

Even if Gui Naifen has the mindset of "I may not use it, but I cannot be without it", this matter itself is somewhat dangerous.

But it should be manageable?

After all, Xiao Guizi is a noob. Although he is a little better than Liu Bai, he is not strong enough to completely crush Liu Bai.

"...Lord Liu Bai, I think you should increase your exercise."

Kujo Sara pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Haven't I been exercising all along?" Bai looked bewildered. "If you're talking about physical fitness... that's not something that can be achieved overnight."

Kujo Sara pondered for a moment: "Then how did you suddenly transform from an ordinary person when you landed into someone with your current level of competence?"

No one was deliberately keeping those things from her, so Kujo Sara was quite curious.

"The book on the other side of Mount Sumeru—the kind that only I can use."

“Special abilities?” Tōsara automatically explained to himself, “But Sumeru… well, we don’t have much communication with them. The connections between us and the neutral zones, Fontaine, Mondstadt, and Sumeru, are not very deep—of course, the Merchant Guild is a different story.”

"Hmm...so you mean the Chamber of Commerce can be involved?"

Liu Bai also pondered for a moment.

"Speaking of which, do they also show a clear inclination towards Inazuma's side?"

Liu Bai was somewhat curious. The World Serpent was obviously a fake neutral zone, and Inazuma clearly favored Anti-Entropy and the Far East Branch.

“Mount Sumeru is neutral, while Mondstadt and Fontaine might lean more towards Schicksal… Of course, it’s just a leaning, and there might not be any substantial cooperation.”

Kujo Sara pondered for a moment.

"Their history dates back to a time before the concept of the state disappeared... probably during the Holy Roman Empire?"

"This has really led us to a strange place."

Liu Bai sighed, but he roughly understood.

This means that the two original European nations in the game have indeed become involved in European affairs in this world.

Given Otto's position, many things could indeed happen between the two sides.

“But you don’t need to worry too much.” After seeing that Liu Bai seemed to understand, Tōsara continued, “After all, their overall stance is still neutral. For example, our Inazuma, unless someone threatens the Far East mainland, normally we will not participate in battles outside.”

Liu Bai nodded to indicate that he understood.

It was only because of Raiden Shin that Inazuma might not have stood by his side.

"Let's get back to the books. Do you think the Chamber of Commerce can handle it? Some of the books might be very important."

Intermediate training books are fine, they're just "local specialties of Sumeru," but advanced training books require reputation.

“…Although I don’t quite understand, it should be nothing more than an exchange of benefits.” After thinking for a moment, Tōsaura replied, “But I’m afraid only Liyue can help us, since we really don’t have anything good to offer in exchange…The Merchant Guild should be quite familiar with Sumeru because of their work.”

Liu Bai sighed. How could he not know that it was all about exchanging favors?

But the problem is that there must be something to exchange.

If the chamber of commerce engages in a benefit exchange, then doesn't he also have to give the chamber of commerce benefits in return?

Up to now, Liu Bai and the Chamber of Commerce have only been cooperating. If it really came down to exchanging something for benefits, Liu Bai really didn't know what to offer, nor did he have anything to do as a favor.

Although Liu Bai seems to be gaining momentum, all he can offer is the uniform of a death squad member. The rest are either worthless or high-risk items that he cannot give away.

Of course, you can help people with their affairs, but that would obviously complicate simple problems.

...This matter seemed to Liu Bai to be relatively simpler than drugging Ningguang—relatively speaking.

Kujo Sara probably realized that she had said something pointless, and cleared her throat slightly embarrassedly: "Perhaps you could consider whether the Mondstadt Grand Library has the books you want? Although the Mondstadt Grand Library is not open to the public, the requirements are not that strict. If you just want to borrow a few books, someone can step in and vouch for you."

Kujo Sara knew that the atmosphere there was relatively relaxed and free. Although it was a powerful force, it wasn't so "mercenary".

Of course, on the other hand, most of the books in their large library are not particularly valuable in terms of supernatural aspects...

Moreover, in their eyes, a book with extraordinary value may not necessarily have high "book value".

"...I can consider it."

There is definitely no library.

However, it would be great to be able to borrow some advanced skill books.

Let's talk about this after we finish grocery shopping. The intermediate skill book is still pretty good.

It seems like Ye Lan can handle all these things, like providing guarantees, all by herself?

Ah... the all-rounder, the secret agent.

After a while, everyone returned to the entrance of the vegetable market empty-handed—it was said that they were buying vegetables, but in reality, they were "ordering".

After all, what we need to buy is not just food for one or two meals, but food for more than a dozen people for half a month or even a month.

Once you order, it will be delivered to your door.

If they haven't returned by then... Fu Hua and Wendy can help retrieve it.

"Are you going back?"

"How about we wander around a bit more? We're already out here, why don't we grab something to eat?"

Fox Palace enthusiastically made the suggestion.

"...I have a feeling it's Fox Palace who's playing games, isn't it?"

Ying looked troubled.

As old friends, it was immediately clear that Fox Palace was up to something.

But now no one can hold onto Fox Palace.

"Here's a little cake for you, Aying~"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Ying immediately fell silent.

She hadn't eaten sweets in a long time, and everything in the pot was good, but this aspect felt very boring to her.

“A little cake…” Cocolia’s expression also showed a hint of excitement. “I also want to try the sweets of this world. You can’t find this kind of deliciousness in Beloborg.”

"Won't you feel guilty, Great Guardian?"

"Perhaps a little?"

Cocolia joked with Fox Fairy in a familiar manner.

As someone who dared to play rock music during her teenage years, even though she came from a military academy, Cocolia Rand was not a particularly serious or rigid person.

It's just that the pressure of being the Great Guardian is too great.

The previous seventeen Grand Protectors "served Qin with land," but in her generation, there was no land left to serve. If she retreated any further, the core area of ​​Beloborg would fall.

If we don't retreat... the Rift won't stop its progress just because we don't retreat.

To put it bluntly, Cocolia felt that if she could live to be fifty or sixty years old, she might be able to witness the complete annihilation of the Iron Guard and the destruction of Beloberg by the Rift, and then sacrifice herself for the city.

Anyway... it's all so numb. Everyone who comes here feels numb. The thought of what would happen if she died young, and this mess would have to be passed on to her daughter, makes Cocolia feel even more numb.

If it weren't for divine intervention, Cocolia felt she would have collapsed sooner or later.

Although she is no longer in Belleburg, Belleburg has no worries.

Cocolia could still bear the guilt of enjoying desserts behind the backs of her people.

Eat! Eat!

"Half of you agree~" Fox Palace smiled and looked at Liu Bai.

"Then let's go." Bai didn't care; it wasn't like he couldn't afford to invite them. "We can also bring some for the others."

"Um... Mr. Liu Bai, do you have any recommendations?"

"what?"

"What are you 'haha' about? Mr. Liu Bai, do you really expect an outsider to blurt out the name of a local shop?" Hu Zhaigong said with an air of self-righteousness.

Liu Bai was speechless.

Hmm... restaurants that serve desserts... Liu Bai doesn't seem to remember any.

Ah, wait a minute.

"...Do you know a maid café called ABYSS ANGEL?"

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"Welcome, Lord!"

"Good morning, Asura." Bai waved to the somewhat dazed Ragnar.

"Hey~ Lord Liu Bai, you've been called a pig, why don't you just file a complaint?"

Fox Palace looked around curiously.

"Oops, oh, I'm so sorry, Master~ I was so happy to see you here~"
