Genshin Impact: My roommate and I became funny Hilichurls

Page 29

The stone that Erkang casually tossed grazed the brim of her hat and smashed into the rock wall, creating a deep crater.

Mona instantly crouched down to cover her head in defense, her speed leaving an afterimage behind her.

Her master's warning flashed through her mind: "If those four beings get serious, even the Seven Gods must temporarily avoid their sharp edge."

Even more terrifying, the future fragments she saw through water divination—the scene of the four beating up Thor—were playing on a loop before her eyes.

The group exchanged glances, and Gu Qian's enormous hand "scooped" Mona out of the pit like a claw machine.

The astrologer, like a frightened cat, huddled in King Raidou's palm.

Zhang Chu's mask displayed the word "Interrogation": "You've been following us all day, just for this?"

"I just want to go to Mondstadt to find the box of the magic heir!"

Mona's screams were tinged with sobs, and her starry stockings were covered in bits of grass.

"The divination indicates that you are also going to Mondstadt... I was thinking it would be more convenient to have a local guide..."

She suddenly realized she'd let something slip and quickly added, "I can do fortune telling for you for free! Really! Put me down! My back is killing me... Ouch!"

Did I squeeze too tightly?

Gu Qian's voice came through, and he loosened his grip slightly.

Mona immediately collapsed into his palm like a pancake, her long hair spreading out like a small waterfall, looking just like a dehydrated mermaid.

Everyone turned to look at Ying, and Qingyu suggested, "Aren't you looking for your brother? This is a good deal."

Ying's golden eyes flickered slightly as she took a few steps forward.

Standing in front of Gu Qian's palm, she was not even as tall as Mona's leg, yet she inexplicably exuded a sense of oppression: "We'll help you find the box, and you'll help me divine my brother's whereabouts."

"make a deal……"

Mona weakly gave an OK sign, then suddenly gasped.

"Ouch... my tailbone..."

Er Kang's mask gleamed with feigned remorse as he asked, "How about we get you a stretcher?"

"No need to bother."

Zhang Chu pulled out a plaster from his four-dimensional pocket—it had the advertising slogan printed on it: "Specially treats sprains and bruises, all Hilichurls say it works well."

"Wait! Where are you going to stick it... Ouch!!"

Mona's scream startled the crystal butterflies within a ten-mile radius.

Zhang Chu applied the plaster precisely to her waist, instantly emitting a "sizzling" sound of heat.

"How does it feel?"

Paimon flew around Gu Qian's shoulder once.

Mona, perched on King Raidou's shoulder, was gripping his horn tightly, her face turning pale and then flushed.

"It's better than walking..."

Mona squeezed out those words through gritted teeth.

With each step Gu Qian took beneath her, the ground shook, making her stomach churn.

Qingyu suddenly remembered something: "By the way, what does the successor you mentioned look like?"

Images appeared on Mona's water sac: "Red clothes, young and promising, a Knight of Favonius, and a very hot girl."

"Klee!! x5"

Amidst the gasps of the crowd, a loud explosion suddenly erupted from the direction of Mondstadt in the distance, and a mushroom cloud slowly rose.

Mona's water divination chart is flashing wildly: [Extremely Dangerous - Astrologically Inauspicious].

But at this moment, the astrologer couldn't care less about any of that—she was clinging tightly to Gu Qian's horn, afraid that she would be thrown off.

"Speed ​​up!"

Er Kang took the lead and rushed out.

Ying watched the four figures disappear into the distance in an instant, then sighed and rubbed her forehead: "I hope Commander Qin doesn't faint..."

Paimon counted on his fingers: "Last time they came to Mondstadt, they blew up five windmills, and now Klee's bombs are on the table..."

The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously shivered.

Chapter 30 Klee

"Hurry! We must finish this while those four living fathers are in Liyue!"

The Fire Abyss Mage leader's voice trembled with tension as it brandished its staff, directing the last wave of Hilichurl mobs to charge forward.

They've already cast a shielding spell here, so no matter how loud the commotion, Mondstadt won't be able to detect it.

Except for that witch, but it's her rest time now, so she's unguarded and there's nothing to worry about.

The Abyss Mages chose to ambush at Starfall Lake because they heard that the four evil stars had gone to Liyue.

But they never dreamed that dealing with this tiny creature would cost them their lives.

"Boom boom boom——!"

Klee's Bouncing Bomb exploded with dazzling sparks amidst the monster horde.

In the explosion, which resembled a miniature sun, the Hilichurls were scattered and thrown about like kicked pebbles.

Klee leaned against a big tree, her red backpack seemingly overflowing with bombs; each time she pulled one out, the monsters collectively took three steps back.

"No! How many bombs does she have?!"

The Ice Abyss Mage's shield was shattered, and it watched in horror as its companions were blown into stars in the sky.

"Is this reasonable?!"

A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Fire Abyss Mage leader: "Damn it! Since that's the case..."

It pulled a bouncing bomb that was flashing a dangerous red light from its robe—a "trophy" that its team had dug up from the wind at great cost.

"Boss, think it over!"

The surviving abyss mages retreated in unison.

"The ashes of the last test-fire team haven't even cooled down yet!"

This bomb was a "sample" that they barely managed to stabilize after sacrificing six of their comrades.

The first mage who attempted to dismantle it was instantly turned into fireworks.

The second person who tried to use elemental force to detect them was instantly vaporized along with their shield.

The worst case was the third one; he just sneezed over the bomb and...

"go to hell!"

The Fire Abyss Mage, in a desperate move, raised the bomb and assumed a throwing stance—

It suddenly realized that its hands were empty.

The bomb had disappeared without a trace, leaving only wisps of smoke lingering on my fingertips.

"Who are you going to mess with..."

A deep voice came from behind, and the entire battlefield instantly fell silent, so quiet that the trembling "gurgling" of the slimes could be heard.

The Fire Abyss Mage turned his head stiffly, and what came into view were four enormous masked figures—

Qingyu's mask reflected a cold light as he tossed and caught the bouncing bomb in his hand;

Er Kang's folding stool was already pressed against the back of its head;

Zhang Chu silently took out his RPG and aimed it at all escape routes;

Gu Qian counted on his fingers with an unpleasant expression...

"I surrender……"

The Fire Abyss Mage trembled as he pulled out a small white flag.

"Fight even if you surrender! Nishiuchi!!! ×4"

What followed was a Teyvat version of "Monster Battle Royale":

Qingyu used the bomb like a baseball, and smacked the Ice Abyss Mage away with it.

Erkang's folding stool danced with afterimages, slamming the Qiuqiu thug into the ley lines;

Zhang Chu's single shot burned three fire mages;

Gu Qian simply picked up the ruins guard and used him as a bowling ball, sending the remaining minions flying...

"Awooohoo!"

This is a fire mage who was blown into the sky;

"Ouch!"

This is the Celestial King that was flattened by a folding stool;

This is a lightning mage who's been turned into a neon light by a thunder hammer...

Klee sat on a tree branch, swinging her legs and clapping happily: "Honorary Knight brother is so awesome!"

When Ying and Paimon arrived at the scene, panting, they only saw monsters with white flags planted all over the ground—they were arranged to spell out "I'm sorry."

Four Hilichurls are teaching Klee how to play Tic-Tac-Toe with bombs; the board is made from fragments of Ruin Guards.

"Are we late?"

Paimon poked the ground at the fire mage whose upper body was buried in the ground.

Looking at the battlefield that had been transformed into an amusement park, Ying silently sheathed her sword: "Next time...wouldn't it be better to let them make the first move..."

"Wait for me..."

Mona, supporting her back, limped along, the branch she was using as a crutch cracking under the strain.

Her astrological hat was askew, and her star-patterned stockings were covered in bits of grass, making her look like a wounded soldier who had just returned from the battlefield.
