Genshin Impact: My roommate and I became funny Hilichurls

Page 121

"Leitou-Zi!"

Gu Qian inserted the horn-shaped transformation device into the interface.

The four of them shouted in unison!

Om-! ! !

A dazzling burst of light in four colors—cyan, blue, red, and purple—like four small suns suddenly erupted, completely enveloping the four people! The powerful energy fluctuations even stirred up the sand and gravel on the ground!

In the light, the Hilichurl masks of the four-person group rapidly changed shape, covering them with a futuristic, streamlined, full-coverage helmet!

At the same time, four beams of light of corresponding colors suddenly burst forth in the sky above Nata!

Immediately afterwards, with a deafening whooshing sound, the four enormous machines tore through the clouds and plummeted toward the ground like meteors!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Four huge impacts almost came together, and the ground shook violently!

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, four giant mechs, each with a unique design but exuding power and technological sophistication, stood majestically before the crowd like guardian deities!

These four mechs are:

• Wind Chaser: Standing at 20 meters tall, its main body is emerald green. Its shape resembles a lithe werewolf, with a streamlined body that exudes a sense of speed, and cyan energy bands at its joints.

• Aquamarine: Also 20 meters tall, entirely aquamarine in color, its shape is inspired by a shark, with a huge fin-like propeller on its back and sharp claws on its arms.

• Thug Red: Twenty meters tall, painted in crimson, with a majestic dragon head, heavy shoulder armor, and arms equipped with huge impact cones and thermal gauntlets.

• Raidou Zi: The tallest, reaching 25 meters, with purplish-black armor, like a heavy bull, with a huge lightning-shaped ram on its head, its entire body armor is thick and heavy, full of oppressive feeling.

The chest armor of all four mechs opened simultaneously, shooting out traction beams that precisely sucked their respective pilots into the cockpits!

The next moment, the eye monitors of all four mechs lit up simultaneously! Their movements were perfectly synchronized…

They struck an extremely embarrassing pose, reminiscent of tokusatsu films from the last century!

Feng Xingqing stood with one hand on his hip and the other pointing to the sky;

Shui Xinglan crossed her arms in front of her chest and turned slightly to the side;

The thugs' red fists collided, sparks flying.

Lei Douzi lowered his head and took a bow stance, slamming his fists into the ground!

A powerful (but somewhat childish) shout, amplified by a megaphone, resounded through the sky:

"We are... the four Hilichurl troublemakers roaming Teyvat!"

Kachina: "..." (Her brain completely shut down, her mouth formed an "O" shape, and the tour guide booklet in her hand fell to the ground with a "thud")

Ying: "..." (She hugged Paimon expressionlessly, revealing her standard dead fish eyes. Her heart was completely unmoved; she even felt a little like laughing, or perhaps wanting to punch someone.)

Paimon: "Wow! Here we go again..."

Inside the cockpit of the Red Thug, Zhang Chu had already covered his helmet-covered face with his tactical gloved hands, letting out a morbid wail: "Aaaaah! I knew it! I still feel so ashamed!! Who designed this pose?!"

Erkang roared irritably in the blue water, but his tone was filled with undisguised excitement.

"A sense of ritual! This is what you call a sense of ritual! Don't you understand?!"

After saying that, Erkang controlled the Water Blue, and the huge shark mech bent down and used its relatively "gentle" mechanical claws to pick up Kachina, who was still in a petrified state, and carefully placed her on the armored platform on its shoulder.

Qingyu also controlled Fengxingqing, extending his wolf-claw-like mechanical hand, signaling Ying and Paimon to come up.

Ying sighed, resignedly hugged Paimon, jumped onto Feng Xingqing's palm, and was placed on another shoulder platform.

Gu Qian controlled Lei Dou Zi, and with his huge feet, he casually swept out the dozens of Ridge Dragons that had been stuck in the ground, piling them on the roadside to clear the way for the mecha's advance, just like sweeping away garbage.

"Let's go! Destination—the Olympic Arena! Full speed ahead!"

Qingyu shouted spiritedly into the communication channel.

"Received!" x3

The next moment, the thrusters on the backs, legs, and feet of the four mechs simultaneously unleashed dazzling bursts of energy!

With a tremendous roar, the four-colored mechs, like four shooting stars flying in reverse, rose from the ground and sped away towards the Holy Flame Arena, tearing through the sky!

All that remained was a chaotic "Dragon Radish" field and lingering energy ripples in the air, proving that the absurd scene of opening a door—a scene so outrageous it would make any Nata native question their existence—was not an illusion.

One can imagine the enormous sensation that would be caused when these four giant mechs, whose style is completely out of place with Nata, appeared in the sky above the Holy Flame Arena like divine warriors descending from the heavens...

And, in Vulcan Mavica's eyes, there was an even more fervent and yearning light, a desire to possess the same "big toy".

Poor engineer Xinoning is probably already considering whether he should flee to Fontainebleau to avoid the storm...

Chapter 143 Xinoning: "No!!!"

When the four giant mechs—cyan, blue, red, and purple—with their stylish designs and art style completely out of place with Nata's primitive and rugged nature, landed in front of the magnificent gates of the Holy Flame Arena like four steel deities from another world, accompanied by the deafening roar of their thrusters and billowing dust, the entire scene instantly fell into a deathly silence.

The Nata people who were originally moving around near the arena or preparing to enter, whether they were battle-hardened tribal warriors or ordinary residents full of curiosity, all seemed to have been collectively frozen in place. Their movements were stiff, their eyes were glazed, and their mouths were wide open enough to fit an entire Flame Core.

The sound of a dislocated jaw seemed to form an invisible chorus in the air.

Having just escaped the clutches of Xinoning, Vulcan Mavica hadn't even had time to see the situation outside before her gaze was firmly drawn to these four steel behemoths, brimming with power and technological beauty.

In her golden eyes, which burned like lava, a light burst forth, more intense than that of Mount Nata, a mixture of shock, admiration, and... an incomparably burning desire!

Wow! What a cool robot! (≧?≦)/

A vibrant voice broke the silence.

Instead of being frightened, the lively and cheerful Marani excitedly ran to the giant mechanical foot of the Water Blue, like a child who had seen a favorite toy. She looked up at it with shining eyes and exclaimed in admiration, even trying to touch the cold metal shell with her hands.

"That's... Kazina?"

The composed Kinich noticed the petite figure in the blue mechanical arm of the water-walking machine, who was trembling (mainly frightened by the speed and height of the mech).

"Huh?! Kazina! You're really here! Hey! Kazina! I'm here!"

Upon hearing this, Marani immediately abandoned her research on the mecha and instead jumped around waving and shouting at Kazina.

"Marani! Kinich!"

Upon finally seeing her familiar friends, Kazina temporarily forgot her fear and waved vigorously in response to Shui Xinglan's palm.

Upon receiving the command, Water Blue and Wind Green emitted a deep hydraulic sound, slowly bending their massive bodies and placing their mechanical hands steadily on the ground.

Katsina, Ying, and Paimon jumped down cautiously.

The feeling of being grounded made Kazina breathe a sigh of relief, and she quickly ran towards Marani and Kinich.

Immediately afterwards, the chest armor of all four mechs slid open simultaneously, revealing the cockpits inside.

Qingyu, Zhang Chu, and Gu Qian leaped out of the cockpit with agile movements, landing smoothly on both feet in what they considered a dashing pose, and even casually straightening their non-existent collars.

When it was Er Kang's turn...

He seemed to have tripped over some cable in the cockpit, or perhaps it was just a habit, but with a strange cry, he fell headfirst into the relatively soft sand in front of the arena with a "plop," leaving only his two legs hanging out comically.

Everyone: "..." (Their ability to think, which had just begun to recover, crashed again.)

After a short silence.

Erkang braced himself with both hands and pulled his head out of the ground. He shook off the sand and dirt from his head. His face (on his helmet) was covered in mud, but he stood up as if nothing had happened. He even tried to strike a cool pose, if you ignored the grass clippings and mud all over his head.

At this moment, Mavica finally broke free from Xinoning's obstruction (Xinoning had desperately covered his face and was squatting to the side drawing circles). She strode forward, her gaze first sweeping over the four mechs with lingering affection, before finally looking at the honorary knights before her, a warm and sincere smile appearing on her face:

"You must be the renowned Knights of Teyvat? Nice to meet you. I am Mavica, the current Vulcan of Nata. Thank you very much for coming to Nata's aid."

"Nice to meet you, Lord Vulcan."

Ying returned a polite smile, behaving appropriately.

"I am Ying, and this is my partner Paimon."

"Hello, Lord Vulcan!"

Paimon flew beside Ying, waving and greeting her with a grin.

"The four of them are Qingyu, Erkang, Zhang Chu, and Gu Qian."

Ying introduced the four-person group in turn.

The four of them waved to Mavica in turn, but Erkang's gesture, combined with his muddy appearance, looked particularly comical.

"Hello everyone! I'm Marani! It's nice to meet you!"

Marani pulled Kinich along and joined in, her face beaming with a bright smile as she curiously observed everyone, especially the four Hilichurls.

"Is he Ginich, and are you also Kazina's friend?"

"Yes, we... um... I guess we're friends."

Qingyu nodded, but her tone was hesitant, and her eyes unconsciously glanced at Erkang, who was trying to brush the weeds off his head.

"Hey! Qingyu, what kind of look is that?!"

Er Kang immediately objected, jumping up and down and shouting.

“Of course we’re Katina’s friends! And very… uh… very close friends!”

As he spoke, he tried to cast what he thought was a loving glance at Kazina, but she hid behind Kinich in fright.

"You have the nerve to talk about what you did?"

Qingyu retorted without hesitation, pointing to the grass on Erkang's head and then subtly pointing to his buttocks (the spot where he had been stabbed by the spear earlier).

Erkang was speechless for a moment. Recalling his "great achievements", he could only lower his head in embarrassment and continue to fight against the weeds on his head.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming slightly awkward (mainly due to Er Kang), an extremely arrogant voice with a heavy nasal tone suddenly rang out:

"Hahaha! You mere Hilichurls! You actually drove such a big, conspicuous metal thing to our Nata! It's hilarious! Are you here to put on a show?"

A small, pixelated, emerald-green dragon wearing cool little sunglasses swaggered out from behind Kinich; it was none other than Kumule Ajo!

He held his short forelegs, looking down at the crowd with disdain through his eyes behind his sunglasses.

"Ah Joe, be careful, they are guests."

Kinic frowned slightly and reprimanded her sternly.

"Tch! A mere Hilichurl! Daring to attract the attention of the great Kumuller Ajo!"

Arjo clearly didn't take Ginich's words to heart, and instead became even more smug. He flew up to Erkang and pointed at Erkang's nose (helmet) with his short claws.
