Genshin Impact Simulation: Starting with Melsin's Friend

Chapter 338 The Last Night Before Departure

The last night before departure was unusually calm.

The girls seemed to have reached some kind of tacit agreement; the night raids that were usually a regular occurrence did not happen tonight.

So much so that when someone pushed the door open and came in, the person who was passionately arguing with their own system in their mind didn't notice at all.

"System, is your teleportation anchor guaranteed to be safe?"

Mu Feng rested his hands on the virtual platform in front of the electronic screen, leaning forward, his expression very serious and solemn.

Upon hearing this, the system stared wide-eyed in disbelief. "Hey, listen to this, listen to this, is this even human language?"

[Host, this system is ranked number one on the annual service satisfaction list. Do you think it would sell you live anchor eggs?]

In short, are you going to buy or not?

The mechanical electronic voice conveyed a mixture of guilt and righteous indignation, which clearly aroused Mu Feng's suspicion.

He knew that his unscrupulous system had taken a lot of kickbacks.

"I'd definitely buy it if it were 150,000 Mora."

But this cut clearly hit the system's main artery, and the system was furious. Who taught you to bargain like this?

[Host, this system suspects you are deliberately causing trouble.]

With this little bit of Mora, they can't even embezzle a bottle of engine oil... This system is saying, they don't even have enough parts for the teleportation anchor!

Mu Feng laughed. "Look, you're in a hurry again."

"Oh...I see...Alright then, I'll take the loss, 100,000 Mora each, is that alright?"

The system was really in a hurry this time, and the language code that hadn't been processed by the CPU program instantly took control of the speaker system.

[Impossible, absolutely impossible. 100,000 Mora won't do. It would need at least 50,000 Mora to cover costs, right?]

Mu Feng: Deal.

system:……

The virtual screen briefly crashed, followed by a row of question marks that swept across the interface from left to right, accompanied by white smoke and some garbled electronic signals.

The guy who came up with this bargaining idea is probably a long way from being a god, but he's certainly far from being human.

After a long while, the virtual interface finally managed to regain some calm, followed by the faint electronic voice of the system.

[Host, I can sell you the anchor point for 50,000 Mora, but can you tell this system who taught you to haggle like this?]

Mora can lose, but she must lose knowing why.

Who exactly is it that's trying to deceive and ambush this young system, disregarding all the rules of the game? She advises this person to think twice.

Don't let her get this guy's information, otherwise...

"It's Candice, because she was bargaining and she died."

Another long silence followed, as if a cold wave from the depths of winter had swept in, and even the air seemed to freeze.

The system silently exited the virtual interface, then began running stiff code and shakily dialed a number.

Hello, is this Dingling Kuanglang Egg Roll Workshop?

[Yes, Ineff, find Aino and get her a bottle of antifreeze lubricant. Yes, yes, it needs to be warm, right away.]

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, someone was basking in the glory of his recent victory in negotiating a price reduction of 250,000 Mora.

All told, it's almost a month's worth of food expenses for Paimon.

But at that moment, a girl's calm, almost indifferent voice suddenly came from not far behind.

"Descendant, what are you muttering to yourself?"

Mu Feng was startled and turned his head, only to meet the dragon loli's light green vertical pupils, which were filled with a questioning look.

Appepp? No, when did she come in?

This is illogical. Is she a dragon or a cat? How come she walks without making a sound?

"Ahaha... Um, no, no, it's nothing."

"You know, it's just tallying up this month's expenses."

Mu Feng wore an awkward smile. His hastily fabricated lie was full of holes and clearly had not worked well.

Unexpectedly, the dragon loli did not ask any further questions, but only gave him a meaningful look.

It seemed like everything was said, yet it seemed like nothing was said.

Then, she reached out her hand, and a bright green chip was lying quietly in her palm.

The crystal looks like jade, but it seems to be much harder than ordinary jade. Its edges are not as rounded as those of ordinary jade products, but instead have a faint sharpness.

However, what is even more eye-catching than the material of the chip is the almost overflowing grass elemental power attached to it.

"The dragon's Achilles' heel, bearing the brunt of a blow from the Eternal Oasis at its peak... or as you call it, elemental power."

Apep's explanation was concise, but if you listen carefully, you can still faintly sense a hint of pride.

Long ago, this place was also the world of dragons.

Whether it's the highest-ranking demon god or the dragon descendants with mixed bloodlines.

All living beings born on this continent will spontaneously submit to the most primal power of this continent.

Even though the "dragon" has long since left the stage of this world.

Although she didn't explain the origin of this "reverse scale," the answer seems quite obvious.

Mu Feng's smile vanished. He didn't take the scales; instead, he stared intently at the dragon before him with a serious expression.

For a moment, neither of them spoke, but simply gazed at their own reflections in each other's pupils in silence.

The air froze once again, so heavy it was hard to breathe.

"The Descendant is merely offering a friendly reminder: don't die."

In the end, it was the little dragon girl who was the first to look away.

Her tone remained indifferent, and her greeting was quite impolite, but her gaze seemed somewhat dimmer than before.

This is very different from her usual behavior.

Silence remained, and the chip was still in her hands.

The pale green vertical pupils reflected the figure opposite, but it seemed as if they were separated by a great distance.

The dragon loli seemed to sigh, silently withdrew her hand, and calmly turned around.

Perhaps now is not the right time...maybe.

After all... so much time has passed, it wouldn't hurt to wait for a corresponding period of time.

At least she's gotten used to waiting.

However, as she took her first step as usual, someone gently put their arm around her shoulder from behind.

She did not resist, but she silently stopped walking.

"sorry."

"I can't remember anything yet."

Her tense body suddenly relaxed, and the dragon loli's tone remained indifferent, her expression flat, seemingly devoid of any emotion.

"You will when the time is right."

The dragon's tail gently patted his calf, but this time, it was much gentler.
