Chapter 317 Split up
The Sword of Humus was like a fighter jet, carrying Albedo who refused to let go, and disappeared into the vast Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.
Looking at the direction where Albedo disappeared, everyone was silent for a moment.
After a long silence, Paimon stretched out his little hand and pointed in that direction, subconsciously complaining:
"They ran away..."
Everyone nodded.
While nodding, Gu Chen commented seriously:
“Humus Sword’s choice was the right one.
We have more people and I am still here. The Sword of Corrosion will definitely not end well if it continues to stay here, so it took Albedo and ran away first.
When the two of them reach a quiet place, it will be easier for Albedo to deal with the Sword of Humus, or for the Sword of Humus to escape from Albedo."
Speaking of this, Gu Chen seemed to be thinking about something:
"How could a sword be so clever and able to see the situation so clearly?"
Eula next to him couldn't help but remind:
"That's not just a sword. Isn't it possible that the soul of the Demon Dragon Durin has already entered that sword?
The smart one shouldn't be the sword, but the dragon Durin."
"But the Demon Dragon Durin... doesn't seem to be that smart, right?"
After struggling for a while, Gu Chen chose his words:
"I'm not looking down on the dragons on the continent of Teyvat. After all, the Water Dragon King of Fontaine is definitely smart enough.
But the Demon Dragon Durin...
It gives people the feeling and impression that it is not clear and awake. Are you sure that the magic dragon Durin is really that smart?"
Now, Eula had no idea how to refute anything. She felt that what Gu Chen said made unexpected sense.
After pondering for a moment, Eula quickly shook her head:
"Wait wait, that's not the point!
Now the question is, what do we do next?"
Gu Chen spread his hands:
"What else can I do? Of course I'll go find Albedo.
The Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain is so huge that it is not easy to find someone, but we have to look for him.
My suggestion is to split up and look for Albedo in different directions, which will be more efficient."
Eula nodded repeatedly:
"I agree.
What happened today was so bizarre and outrageous, and one thing after another.
If we ignore Albedo, no one knows what will happen to him.
What's more... this series of events seems to be mainly aimed at Albedo, and I am really worried."
Xiangling, Shenhe and Rosaline all agreed with Gu Chen and Youla's decision. After all, they were also worried about Albedo.
Then, they should divide themselves into groups so that they can act separately.
After discussion, they decided that Shen He and Xiang Ling would be in one group, Gu Chen, You La and Paimon would be in one group, and Rosaline would be in a group alone.
After being divided into three groups, they had to enter the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain in three different directions to search.
This kind of grouping combines both numbers and strength, which is quite reasonable.
After discussing and dividing into groups, everyone entered the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain according to the plan and general direction.
There is no need to go into details about the other groups, let’s just talk about the group of Gu Chen, Eula and Paimon.
The three of them walked in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, searching, traveling and chatting at the same time.
The topic of the conversation was the purpose of Gu Chen and his friends coming to Longji Snow Mountain this time.
Upon hearing that their target was the Great Snow Pig King, and that this goal had already been achieved, Eula was inevitably a little surprised:
"Big Snow Pig King? Is there really such a thing in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain?
Frozen ordinary snow pigs are common, but the Great Snow Pig King was indeed just a legend before.
I didn't expect that you guys actually found it.
but……
Such a powerful snow pig, your original intention was just to use it as food, I always feel a little bit..."
Gu Chen, who was walking beside her, couldn't help but asked with a smile:
"Are you trying to say that it feels like a waste of resources?"
Being hit on the point, Eula said calmly:
“It’s not a waste of natural resources, but it does feel a bit regrettable.”
Paimon obviously disagrees:
“What a pity.
Just like Xiangling said, the most important things in life are eating and drinking.
The Great Snow Pig King is, after all, just a snow pig. At most, it's a little bigger than an ordinary snow pig, and ultimately, it's meant to be eaten!"
Eula was a little helpless:
"Alright, alright. It's your prey anyway. I have no right to interfere."
At this point, Eula remembered something.
As she walked forward, she spoke in a cautious tone:
"By the way, I already knew my two friends, Xiangling and Shenhe, when we were grouped together. They were also assigned to the same group.
But that Rosaline, the maid who had always served you, was assigned to a separate group...
If I remember correctly, she was the Fatui's executive officer, right? She was the one who caused all sorts of trouble in Mondstadt.
How could such a woman with evil intentions come to be your maid?
Gu Chen, you wouldn't be willing to fall into the beauty trap, right?
Be careful, this maid might stab you in the back one day!"
Hearing Youla finally ask this question, Gu Chen couldn't help but laugh:
"I knew you recognized her, even though she was dressed as a maid.
Yes, Rosaline is the Eighth Leader of the Fatui, ma'am.
Of course, she is now my personal maid, always taking care of me and my friends.
As for your worries...there's absolutely no need.
She was a maid willingly."
"Willingly?"
“Yes, it’s the will of Her Majesty the Queen that they come to work as my maid.
Rosalyn couldn't resist and could only accept it."
"Her Majesty the Queen..."
Muttering this word, Eula quickly reacted:
"Is it the Ice God of Winter, the Ice Queen!?"
Gu Chen nodded.
"You're still connected to the Ice God!?"
"It's not like we've met before. Although we haven't officially met, we can be considered...spiritual friends for a long time."
"Have you been in spiritual contact for a long time?
do not understand.
I really don't understand, how could a dignified Fatui executive officer become your maid?
This is a complete loss of face and dignity for the Ice God!"
Looking at Eula's incredulous expression, Gu Chen shook his head meaningfully:
"Is it embarrassing... maybe a little.
But not much was lost here.
On the contrary, the Ice God might have made a profit.
For the Fatui and Solstice, paying Rosaline to connect with me is definitely not a loss."
Because Gu Chen's words were ambiguous and a bit profound, Youla really couldn't understand them, so she simply gave up trying to figure them out.
Rolling her eyes speechlessly, Eula could only offer this warning:
"Forget it, it's your own business.
I am not your relative and I cannot advise you. Whether you are a maid or a lady, just be happy as long as you are happy."
After saying this, the two of them didn't waste any more words. They continued on their way and continued searching in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.
The two of them stopped chatting, but Paimon, who was floating next to them, had something to say at this time.
