Genshin Impact: Beginning Strategy Guide for the End of the World

“Yes, Bishop Otto. The report said that this researcher was infected with the Collapse Energy due to a surgical accident, so he was immediately treated. The report only mentioned it briefly.”
Otto thought about it and thought, no. There is no such coincidence. How come a researcher died just after Jue Xi arrived at the Babylon Laboratory? Although the death of one person is insignificant, there must be something strange about it happening at this time.
“Amber, contact the director of Babylon Laboratory for me. I have something to ask him.”
“Yes, Bishop Otto.”
After a while, the call was connected, and the person in charge asked cautiously…
“Your Excellency the Bishop, do you have any instructions?”
“Haha, don’t be nervous. I happened to have some time today, so I took a look at the experimental report of the Babylon Laboratory. I happened to see that it said that a researcher was accidentally infected due to a surgical accident. It’s really a pity that our researchers would make such a low-level mistake.”
“Yes, that boy was very careless. I promise that this will not happen again, Your Excellency the Bishop.”
“Haha, very good. By the way, send me the video of the failed operation that caused the scientific researchers to be infected. I want to summarize the experience.”
“This… this kind of incident happened. In order to prevent the video from being leaked, the video was deleted by the people below.”
Otto smiled.
“Haha, this video was not deleted but it was not there from the beginning, right? My friend, the death of a researcher is a small matter, and so is the replacement of a laboratory director. Even whether the family of this director will encounter some accidents is an insignificant matter to me. I can pretend that I didn’t hear what you said just now, but now… let me ask you again, how did that researcher die?”
“Your Majesty the Bishop…”
“Tell the truth. I don’t blame you. Who hasn’t made mistakes?”
“Your Excellency the Bishop, that researcher was killed by Mr. Jue Xi.”
Otto finally got a satisfactory answer. It was indeed Jue Xi…
“why?”
“Because of an experiment…”
“Experiment?”
“A little girl named Xilin. The experimenter was beating her at the time, and Mr. Juexi saw it, so…”
“Send me a copy of this video.”
“Your Excellency the Bishop…this has really been deleted.”
“It’s okay. I believe you will be able to recover it. Or… do you need me to let Amber remotely control your computer to recover the video?”
“No, Your Excellency the Bishop… I’ll send you the video right away.”
“Very good, my patience is limited, don’t make me wait too long…”
……
After watching this video, Otto’s mouth corners slightly raised.
“Mu Juexi, Mu Juexi. Even if you compare your sword skills with my old friend, Immortal Chi Yuan, I’m afraid they are not much inferior.”
……
At this moment, Jue Xi was looking at a pile of white cloth… He couldn’t let Xilin continue to wear the lab coat tomorrow. Although there were no clothes in the lab, there was cloth, so he could make it himself. He had spent 3,000 points to make clothes for Qibao and learned tailor-related knowledge, so he put his skills to good use.
Just when Jue Xi was about to start showing his skills, the communicator suddenly rang. When Jue Xi saw who initiated the communication, he took a breath.
“Hiss… Otto…”
Although he was a little nervous, Jue Xi still accepted it.
“Hello, Bishop Otto. What are your instructions for sending a message so late at night?”
“What do you mean by instructions, my dear friend? I just wanted to ask you a question. I have been talking about my own affairs all day. Now we should talk about you.”
“Me? What do I have to talk about?”
“Let’s not talk about you, then… let’s talk about Xilin?”
“…”
“My dear friend, why are you silent? I was just joking just now. Could it be that the girl is very important to you?”
“It’s just generally important…”
“How about this, my friend? Come to the Destiny headquarters tomorrow. I have something important to discuss with you.”
“Do I have a choice?”
“Oh, of course, my dear friend. You must know who I am, Otto. I never force anyone to do anything. If you don’t come tomorrow, I will go there myself. So, will you come?”
“It’s so urgent… I will go.”
“Then I won’t bother you any more, my dear friend. I wish you an unforgettable evening. Good night.”
After hanging up the call, Jue Xi fell into deep thought. Finally…
“Oh, forget it, let’s make clothes for little Xilin first. There will always be a way out when the car reaches the mountain. I want to see what Otto is going to do.”
Meanwhile, Xilin had a strange dream…
Xilin watched the two researchers chatting.
“Isn’t this too cruel? They are just children.”
“Is it cruel? If you think it’s cruel, then you should immediately sign up for resignation. Didn’t you take anatomy classes when you were in school? Now they are no different from the mice in anatomy classes. They are not human beings, but just experimental subjects and experimental data.”
“But……”
“But what? They are not human! How many times do I have to tell you? If they don’t sacrifice themselves, do they want me to sacrifice myself? Do they want you to sacrifice yourself? What about the Valkyries’ stigmata? This is all for the Valkyries, to fight against the damn Honkai!”
The man didn’t say anything else. When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he took out the photo from under his pillow. It was of his daughter. Her age was the same as these “experimental subjects”…
It was hard for Xilin to imagine that the person who stood up for them in the picture was actually the man who bullied her today and was killed by Juexi’s brother…
The scene changed and the man was obviously much more haggard. He was in the cafeteria listening to two people talking about him blatantly.
“Have you heard? ‘???’ broke out again. The guy who had a fight with his roommate before, his wife and children are all dead.”
“real or fake?”
“Of course it’s true. Haven’t you seen him? He has aged so much all of a sudden recently, and most of his hair has turned white. He said before that the test subjects were about the same age as his daughter. Now that’s it. Sympathize with me. If we had studied the ‘Stigmata’ earlier, the Valkyries would have become stronger, and there wouldn’t be so many problems. Maybe his child wouldn’t have to die, so let him live. You still like to sympathize with others, why are you pretending?”
“If you ask me, he is the same. If he really sympathizes with me, why would he come to work here? Don’t you think so? Don’t you all know what this place is?”
“Yeah, hahahahahaha.”
The man who was eavesdropping from behind couldn’t stand it any longer.
“I***!”
After swearing, he started to wrestle with the two people in front of him.
……
After being punished, the man said nothing. He had nothing to be punished for. The next day, he just quietly put on his helmet, put on protective clothing, and burned the photos of his family…
This time, he remained indifferent when he saw the little girl begging for mercy, and even smiled…
“Please, it hurts… I don’t want to die.”
……
“Haha, you don’t want to die, she doesn’t want to die, so I should die?”
At this he grabbed the little girl’s hair and lifted her up.
“I sympathize with you, but who sympathizes with me?”
……
Xilin was a little confused
“Why? Why can I see these…”
The scene changed again, and Xilin felt a little dizzy. After she came to a trance, she stood beside the operating table and watched one living person after another being sent to the operating table, then Bella… and finally…
it’s me…
“No one can escape, no one can be spared☆”
Chapter 201 Wolf? Sheep?
“Sirin…Sirin…”
Xilin suddenly woke up from her nightmare when she heard the familiar voice. Juexi sat at the head of the bed and gently touched Xilin’s head.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. It’s just a nightmare. It will all pass. It will be fine once you wake up. It’s all fake.”
Xilin was silent for a while, obviously not recovered yet. Jue Xi thought about it.
“Shall I tell you a story?”
Xilin nodded.
“In a very, very far place, there is a grassland with a group of carefree lambs. In the forest deep in the grassland, there is a wolf fort.”
…
“In the end, the big bad wolf and the lambs became good friends.”
Xilin asked curiously.
“So the big bad wolf didn’t eat the lamb in the end?”
“Yes.”
“The big bad wolf is so pitiful, he just wants to fill his stomach…”
Juexi felt a little embarrassed. Why did Xilin sympathize with the Big Bad Wolf? Shouldn’t she like the lamb? Anyway, she liked the lamb when she was a child, and she liked the Big Bad Wolf when she grew up. Was she too naive when she was a child? Xilin is so mature…
“Although Big Bad Wolf didn’t eat the lamb in the end, he could eat other things to fill his stomach. And this is a short story, not a real wolf and lamb. A real wolf can’t invent things or build a castle. But the Big Bad Wolf in the story can do it. After spending a long time with the lambs, they became good friends.”
“But can wolves and sheep really become friends?”
Jue Xi was a little confused. Why was Xilin so concerned about this issue?
“Although this possibility is very small, it cannot be ruled out. The hostile wolves and sheep in this story represent not only real wolves and sheep, but more like two different concepts and races. They go through friction and communication. Finally, the two form a harmonious situation. Just like the yin and yang sides of a person, the two are reconciled with each other, and good and evil happen in an instant.”
Xilin thought for a long time.
“I don’t understand, Brother Juexi.”
“Well… to put it simply, the wolf and the sheep will become friends, but the process before they become friends will not be smooth.”
