Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

Chapter 683 Fighting is fun!

"I do not."

Zuo Xi shook his head and refused without any hesitation. Nashida wanted him to take care of her, Xiao wanted him to take care of her, and now Liyue wants him to take care of her too... Is he your Morax's personal nanny? Why does he have to take care of everything?

Why don’t you ask your wife to take care of him too?

Hiss… You know what, Yao Guizhong is really still alive. Zhongli might really say such a thing now.

"Liyue is your country. You should manage and protect it yourself. Do you think it's appropriate to hand it over to an outsider like me?"

While complaining in his heart, Zuo Xi was also complaining. But relatively speaking, his choice of words was a little more refined, so it didn't sound so out of line.

“Brother Zuo is absolutely right. It is my job to trouble you. Brother Zuo, I am really sorry for letting you see my embarrassing side.

If you don't mind, could you give them some time to finish what they need to do? "

Zhongli didn't have enough extra energy to chat with Zuo Xi now, although the fact that the other party was still alive did make the huge stone in his heart disappear.

But the impact left by the big rock has not been completely eliminated... He has reached a dead end and cannot get out by himself without some special circumstances.

Zuo Xi roughly understood the current situation, because the most serious symptoms were gone, and this sequelae was not completely irreversible compared to the actual wear and tear.

His current situation is that he is stuck in a dead end, but he still maintains a trace of rationality.

The solution is very simple. Just make him realize that death cannot solve the problem.

The method is also simple, just beat him until he is almost dead.

Didn't he want to die? Then let him really experience the feeling of dying. The revolving lantern will solve all the difficult and complicated problems... Well, Zuo Xi had to admit that he was actually a little itchy.

As for the solution, there are other methods. But this one should be the fastest and more suitable for saving time now.

But the more important reason was that Zuo Xi wanted to find someone to practice with. And it just so happened...it really just happened that Zhongli encountered this situation.

There are many people who are looking for trouble, but none of them has the strength of Zhongli.

Having just ascended to the throne of God, Zuo Xi also wanted to find an opponent to test his current strength. Since he had a legitimate reason to fight Zhongli, he naturally had no reason to let him go.

But this might not be enough, so during the fight, Zuo Xi would do some tricks on the side to help Zhongli stay calm.

For example, slightly downplay Zhongli's connection with Sky Island to weaken the "wear and tear" inflicted on him by this world.

There is no wear and tear for people outside of Teyvat. It is unknown how long the Sky and Fluorescent Twins had lived before coming to Teyvat, but aren't these two more naive (shabi) than the other?

Therefore, as far as the wear and tear of Teyvat is concerned, it is very likely caused by some kind of cause and effect series rules set by the law of nature. Therefore, the creatures of Teyvat will all be worn out after living too long.

But wear and tear manifests itself in different ways...because this "rule" emphasizes the results, not the process.

The result is that if you live long enough, you will definitely be worn out. As for how this wear and tear comes about and what the effects are... it varies from person to person and is not important.

In short, as a god outside of Teyvat and a descender who is qualified to compete for the throne, Zuo Xi has the ability to weaken the connection between the Teyvat people and the existing rules.

Although the only way to completely sever this connection is for him to ascend the throne, become the rule maker and rewrite the rules.

But if he just wants to reduce the impact a little, he can do it now.

Any form is fine, but he wants to fight with Zhongli now, so the form is to seriously "inject" this influence into him.

But the problem is that Zhongli's desire to survive is a bit low right now. In this case, it is very likely that he will give up defense and allow him to attack without fighting back.

After all, fighting back would inevitably cause destruction, and every inch of soil destroyed would be the country's precious land that Zhongli had poured his heart and soul into.

This went against Zuo Xi's original intention. He came here to practice, not to hit a sandbag. Although the experience of using Morax as a sandbag was special and valuable enough, hitting a sandbag itself could not achieve his goal.

"Morax, do you believe me?"

Zuo Xi stared into Zhongli's eyes. He thought that he would not hesitate for too long. In fact, judging from the result, he was not wrong. Zhongli did not hesitate for too long.

But this answer...is a little different from what he imagined.

"Do not believe."

Zhongli shook his head and said the word "I don't believe it" very bluntly.

To say what I said before, he believes it.

But not long ago, Zuo Xi tricked him using the rules that he was good at, which led Zhongli to distrust Zuo Xi in some situations.

Don't get me wrong, he certainly believed in Zuo Xi's character. He could also feel at ease leaving Liyue to his care, because he believed in Zuo Xi's kindness and his shining humanity.

But for the same reason, he couldn't trust Zuo Xi in some aspects. After all, the previous incident happened not long ago, and although he was old, he was not so forgetful.

Now Zuo Xi asked him seriously and strategically whether he trusted him. How could Zhongli not be suspicious?

Especially, the way he is now, and the fact that he intends to end his own life...the factors are completely in place, and it would be reasonable for the other party to exchange his life for his in the next second.

In this case, how could Zhongli dare to trust him?

He was afraid that if he said the word "faith", the other party would die in front of him again. It was not that he didn't die in Xumi before, but now he came to Liyue to make up for it.

"...You rejected me so straightforwardly. I feel so embarrassed."

Veins popped up on Zuo Xi's forehead. He had not expected Zhongli to reject him so bluntly. The friendship they had in the past seemed so fragile at this moment... Wear and tear was indeed terrible. Even an old antique could learn such a joke.

“I’m not kidding you. If you still want Liyue to survive, you should try your best to kill me... I don’t think this is convincing... Anyway, come and fight me. I’ll help you solve your current problem.

If you don't want to solve the current trouble, I don't mind artificially creating some trouble for you... What do you think would happen if Liuxi Palace exploded above Liyue? That scene must be spectacular. "

Because Zhongli was too disrespectful, Zuo Xi had to resort to extraordinary measures.

Liuxi Palace is a building that was renovated by Zuo Xi, and all the internal mechanical structures were designed by Zuo Xi. As the "Master of All Machines", all machines will be unconditionally controlled by Zuo Xi.

Machines with intelligence would worship him as a god and obey his oracle. Machines without intelligence... there were no such things as machines without intelligence. After becoming a god, one of Zuo Xi's abilities was to be able to enlighten machines at will and give them souls.

No, it should be said that from the moment Zuo Xi ascended to the throne, he had endowed all machines with the concept of "soul".

As long as something can be conceptually called a "machine", it is within this scope... In other words, for objects that can be given the concept of "machine", Zuo Xi is the real "master".

Intelligent machines, which only exist in fantasy, are no longer just isolated cases that may appear occasionally.

They have now officially become the new intelligent race of Teyvat, and are also the people of Zuo Xi as a god. New machines will be given the concept of soul, as for whether they can produce "self"... This depends on the machine.

Back to the point, whether or not Liuxi Palace should be bombed is entirely up to Zuo Xi. Not to mention bombing it, even if he ordered Liuxi Palace to bomb Liyue Harbor, it wouldn't be a problem.

Although if Liuxi Palace has enough potential to evolve its own "self", it may not understand, and may also feel sorry for everything that happened in the past.

But as long as Zuo Xi formally gives the order, any machine will execute it from the bottom of its heart... This is not a mandatory effect, and in fact they still have the right to choose to refuse.

But objectively speaking, that kind of thing will never happen. Because unlike other gods, Zuo Xi is to the intelligent machines what the Creator is to his subjects.

"Congratulations, Brother Zuo. It is not easy to get promoted. Brother Zuo is blessed with good fortune and is truly a remarkable man.

Since Brother Zuo is interested in a competition, Zhongli will not spoil Brother Zuo's fun. Brother Zuo, please do not scare Ningguang or the people of Liyue."

Zhongli felt a little embarrassed, but it was not difficult for him to understand Zuo Xi's eagerness to try. After all, everyone has a time when they are young and full of vigor. When he was young, he was even more warlike and arrogant than Zuo Xi.

It’s just that Zuo Xi just shocked Liu Xi Palace in public to show that he was not joking... Zhongli felt that this was unnecessary.

Zhongli could even guess Ningguang's next behavior, as well as the reactions of the vast majority of Liyue's people.

Ningguang will most likely use this as an excuse to blackmail Zuo Xi, but as for the ordinary people of Liyue... 90% of them will not notice this shock.

After all, although Liuxi Palace is in the sky and can be seen by looking up, it is precisely because it can be seen at any time that not many people pay attention to it.

Of the 10% who saw it, 99% of them would not take it seriously. At most, they would use it as material to fabricate some bizarre and attractive rumors to discredit Ningguang.

These are the most common consequences, so it is more of a statement than a threat.

Zuo Xi was conveying to him the attitude that "a fight must be fought today", and the other party was so determined that Zhongli could only risk his life to accompany the gentleman.

After all, he was seeking death, so there's nothing wrong in satisfying his friend's request before dying... While he still has some rationality, let's minimize the losses and let Zuo Xi have fun.

"I'll leave the reinforcement and defense to you all... Brother Zuo, let's go to another place. How about right on Yunlai Sea?"
