Chapter 4
The next day, when Dina Zedai was having breakfast with her parents, she wanted to share her joy but hesitated: Can I tell my parents about this matter rashly?
Of course, her parents loved her very much and would not hurt her, but the recovery of "Magic Scale Disease" was also a pleasant surprise for her, and she could even be said to know nothing about
it. In this case, would the recovery of "Magic Scale Disease" bring unexpected harm to her parents who loved her? Dina Zedai was struggling in her heart, and Liuhuo, who went out as soon as Dixia called him, scared people: "Liuhuo, you woke up so early? I thought children like to stay in bed."
Liuhuo nodded perfunctorily and complained in his heart: "If I fall asleep, maybe I will see you in the next life."
- Well, although he lost his memory, Liuhuo still had some guesses about his sleep time.
Dixia sent her back to Kong. After Dixia left, Liuhuo asked Kong: "Tinari?"
If Tinari hadn't been busy, it would be impossible for Kong and Paimon to pick her up alone.
Then, Liuhuo learned about Kong and Tinari's adventure in the "contaminated area" yesterday, and nodded: "Tomorrow, go find Tinari."
After many days of learning, Liuhuo can handle most daily conversations. The most is that he doesn't talk much and tends to become a "middle school kid".
The next day, Kong and Paimon took Liuhuo to the "Zenana Garden". Kong was surprised to find that the mechanical life "Kakata" had not been dismantled by Tinari, and was even helping Tinari record experimental data.
Liuhuo ran to the side of Kakata, and after looking at it for a while, he asked Tinari: "Intelligent machinery... young?"
Tinari: "Hmm?"
The literal meaning is easy to understand, intelligent machinery or something like that, but Liuhuo specifically said this, which means that "intelligent machinery" should be a proper noun. Seeing that Tinari did not answer, Liuhuo added: "Inorganic life?"
This time Tinari nodded: "Well, I am willing to believe that Kakata is already a real life."
Liuhuo satisfied his curiosity and turned his head to observe the plants in the glass house. Kong couldn't help but say one more sentence: "I thought Liuhuo was more interested in Kakata."
In fact, after listening to Liuhuo completely: "I always feel that I have a general relationship with the intelligent machinery..."
... In fact, it has little to do with fate.
After that? Of course, they went back to their own homes. Tinari and Liuhuo, who was already reading a book, returned to Huacheng together. During the two days he was away, Kelai took care of things temporarily. Although there was no trouble, it was still a relief to see the master back. Seeing Kelai like this, Liuhuo naturally took her to study with a book.
Liuhuo: Recognizing words, how can you learn from a reference book? It's slow and boring.
Kelai is not a genius, but if you say she learns slowly, it's only compared to geniuses like Tinari. It's nothing more than being dragged down by the "magic scale disease" and the "Fools" when she should have studied. Now she has to bother to catch up with the progress of her peers. As her teacher, Tinari didn't want to put pressure on her, but he himself was a genius, and it was really hard for
him to empathize with the learning progress of ordinary people... In comparison, although Liuhuo learned quickly and had a synesthesia beacon, to her, other people were all "humans". Smart humans and ordinary humans would learn one day, so she was naturally quite patient with Kelai.
…Although Cole became even more anxious after discovering Liuhuo’s learning progress.jpgOriginally,
this kind of daily life could be considered leisurely, but there would always be some situations that Tinari had to step in to solve.
“Hypata’s situation is not right… Liuhuo, do you want to go to Zen Garden with me? Or stay here to help Cole?”
Liuhuo originally preferred to stay in Huachengguo, but after taking a look at Haipata, she silently pulled Tinari’s sleeve—she judged that Tinari probably couldn’t solve this matter, so she should let her go.
Haipata’s symptoms were somewhat different from those of ordinary ‘mad scholars’, but she didn’t look like she had successfully obtained the wisdom of a god. Liuhuo was a professional in this matter, but she couldn’t explain the cause and effect in a way that Tinari could understand, so she could only say: “Consciousness, connection, wrong.”
Tinari frowned, and could only comfort herself that there were relatively few people coming to Zen Garden, which gave Haipata a safe isolation space.
Liuhuo pulled Hybasha to lie down halfway and touched her head. She could forcibly isolate Hybasha's perception, but Hybasha still hoped to maintain the connection with the 'God', so Liuhuo could only coax her: "Sleep, sleep..."
By the way, she complained in her heart: 'Isn't this God too unrefined? Why does he respond to any believer? Hybasha is so weak, if it happens a few more times, this believer will be gone...'
Although she was amnesiac, for some reason, it was engraved in her common sense that the people who were responded to and blessed would sooner or later be 'saved' by the light arrow once and for all...
Liuhuo: Although Hybasha is weak, she really doesn't deserve this.jpg
Not long after Liuhuo coaxed Hybasha to sleep, the Zen Garden seemed to be taken over by a group of thirty people. This was as clear as a small bird in a group of sparrows in Liuhuo's perception, and it was impossible to pretend not to see it.
"Liuhuo?" The appearance of Kong and Paimon almost woke up Hypatia. Liuhuo had to use the silencing gesture he had just learned to get them to lower their voices. He confirmed that the barrier was set up before speaking: "Kong... ? This isn't a puppet from the Adventurer's Guild."
Kong was stunned for a moment, but Paimon looked surprised: "Liuhuo, how did you know?"
Liuhuo nodded naturally: "Consciousness bodies are different." Then he continued to ask questions: "Looking for me? Looking for Hypatia?"
Paimon: "Actually, we are here to find Tinari... But what happened to Hypatia? Wasn't she practicing in Daocheng Forest before?"
Liuhuo explained in the same words: "Consciousness, connection, wrong..."
Then he saw that their expressions were even more confused than Tinari's - well, after all, they hadn't seen Hypatia's state, which was normal - "Do you want to see? Hypatia's consciousness is too weak. If you want to see it, I'll show you."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand, hesitated between 'Catherine' and Kong, and still held Kong's hand.
Then, in his mind, Sora received a message of 'I have been betrayed three times...'
"Sora?" Paimon was not worried that Liuhuo would harm anyone, but Sora's dazed state still frightened her a little. Then Liuhuo looked at Sora blankly and began to quickly summarize things like 'new gods', 'the God-making of the Order', '"skirmishers"', '"doctors" and so on...
Liuhuo: How come I am out of the situation?
This expression was too subtle, and even Paimon noticed it and began to smooth things over: "Oh, just now Liuhuo suddenly became so powerful, his eyes turned golden, and his hair floated..."
Before he finished speaking, 'Catherine' found that the glass house was surrounded - Paimon immediately said: "I'll leave Hypatia to you, Liuhuo!"
Liuhuo: ...emm, it's hard to say about Sora, but the puppet of the Adventurer's Association should not be able to escape...
She divided her attention on Sora, thinking that if he couldn't escape, she would weave a path for him with a needle - but what happened, the consciousness in the 'puppet' went online and ran away directly from Sora?
Liuhuo gently touched Haibasha's head, looked at Tinari who ran away with Kong, and fell into deep thought.
In the distance, the three people who finally escaped the encirclement and were temporarily safe finally had time to exchange information. Tinari finally had a general understanding of the recent affairs of the Order Institute. After listening to Kong mentioning the things about Liuhuo and Haibasha, he reminded: "Although Liuhuo looks like a child, she...it's best to pay attention to her opinions."
Paimon nodded: "Tinari didn't see it just now, Liuhuo shared what Haibasha saw with Kong. That look...to be honest, I think it's a bit...a bit..."
Kong comforted Paimon: "But she doesn't have any bad intentions, right?"
Paimon was willing to He nodded steadily: "I know she is a good person! I just couldn't react all of a sudden!"
Kong and Paimon were going to the desert to seek a way out of the impasse. Tinari said that he couldn't just leave Liuhuo and Haipata in the Zen Garden, so they separated temporarily - but before they separated, Tinari handed a glowing needle to Kong: "Just now when you were unconscious, Liuhuo asked this to chase you, saying that if you are in trouble, you can use this to find her. I have to go back and reunite with her anyway, so you should take it." Kong
and Paimon looked at this "key mission prop" and nodded cautiously.
So, with her tacit consent, Liuhuo's light needle accompanied Kong silently for most of the desert adventure, until one night, when Liuhuo was sorting out the plant illustrations, he suddenly heard Kong's embarrassed voice: "Liuhuo? Liuhuo?"
and Paimon's: "Can she really hear us looking for her like this? I should have asked Tinari carefully..."
The light needle, which was not too eye-catching at first, left Kong's hand, and after dancing in the air, it showed the appearance of a simple puppet man: "Looking for me?"
"Liuhuo! There is a real reaction!" Paimon floated back in surprise, and then immediately came up: "We have questions for you!"
Liuhuo looked around through the puppet's sloppy eyes: "Seno, Dishia and... Elhaisen? You got together?"
Seno stared at the puppet, and after a few seconds he spoke: "You... can already talk fluently."
Liuhuo didn't quite understand why Seno repeated this obvious fact, so he could only: "Looking for me for something?"
"Oh, yes, yes," Paimon, as the Mouth of God, briefly explained the cause and effect, and then said to the puppet: "In short, we hope that Tinari can help confirm the status of the Fatui "Doctor" and not hinder us from rescuing the "Little Lucky Grass King." "
The puppet showed a subtle expression: "The one who came with you that day... is the god of Xumi?"
Paimon: "...Is this the point? !"
The puppet glanced at Paimon: "Then He... if they fight, the new god that Hypatia saw is stronger." "
Is "Scattered Soldiers" so strong?" Paimon covered his mouth, and then reacted: "Liuhuo, how did you know?"
Liuhuo was not surprised that they could not distinguish the strength of the gods: "You can tell at a glance, it's called "Little Lucky Grass King", right? If he is considered a god, he is also a cub god, and, he is not... not..."
After struggling for two seconds, he reluctantly used words to express his meaning: "No, fighting experience."
Then the puppet turned to Kong: "Not even as old as you. "
Kong: There is no need to suddenly ask me to be the control group...
