The Weapon Master Shall Never Die Bare-Handed in Genshin Impact [301]

"That's right! A lot of people hope to gain a Vision!" Lumine nodded in agreement.

"Perhaps... Some people long for normalcy, while others yearn for something extraordinary. But in the end, it's always about desiring what they lack," Albedo said, steering the conversation back on track. "In any case, the experiment results are normal. Lumine, your results also indicate that you can safely continue using elemental energy in the future."

"So this means the experiment was successful?" Lumine tilted her head thoughtfully.

"Timmaeus, the new experiment data is ready. Could you organize it for me?" Albedo called out.

Timmaeus hurried over, quickly organizing the experimental data. He remarked, "After your guidance earlier, Master, I realized how limited my thinking was. Now, my thought process feels much clearer."

"If we consider you two as animals, the approach seems too imprecise and constrained. But if we view you as elemental creatures or even plants, we might find answers more quickly..."

"Elemental creatures? Me?" Lumine's face scrunched in confusion.

After so much research, was she now not even considered a higher-order animal?

But why was Jia Changjiang categorized as a plant?

Lumine's confusion prompted an explanation from Timmaeus: "Compared to creatures in Teyvat, plant-based life forms seem to combine with elemental energy more easily, gaining resistance..."

Albedo nodded. "Interesting. I think that's a worthwhile direction to explore. But rather than me judging its viability, you should investigate it further yourself."

"Understood! I’ll ensure my findings satisfy everyone!" Timmaeus responded enthusiastically.

"Honestly, I think no matter how far you take this line of research, we still won’t be satisfied..." Lumine muttered under her breath. "Jax classified as a plant life form... Hmm, a plant life form... likes to fight... hot-tempered..."

Lumine thought seriously for a moment before deciding. From now on, she and Paimon would call Jia Changjiang by a new nickname they'd come up with before: Jia Greenleaf!

If Jax tried to mess with her again, she’d use it to tease him!

Albedo turned to Jia Changjiang and Lumine. "Alright, before the next experiment, I need to prepare a few things. In the meantime, feel free to look around the camp."

"Okay, let’s have a look around," Lumine agreed. "I’ll explore with Jia Gree—uh, Jia Changjiang."

"Jia Green what?" Jia Changjiang looked at her, puzzled.

He couldn’t shake the feeling that Lumine was up to something mischievous.

"Nothing, nothing," Lumine replied hastily, looking a bit sheepish as she wandered off to explore the camp.

Meanwhile, Albedo headed out to gather the necessary materials.

Left with nothing to do, Jia Changjiang sat near the camp’s entrance, idly plucking blades of grass and rolling them between his fingers.

This snowy mountain...

Though he hadn’t said much about it, from the moment he set foot on the mountain, Jia Changjiang felt as though something lingered here.

And it reminded him of the sensation during the battle with Dvalin.

"Is it the venomous dragon?" he murmured to himself.

According to Mondstadt’s legends, centuries ago, the venomous dragon Durin was defeated by Barbatos and the East Wind Dragon, Dvalin, when the Four Winds Guardians couldn’t withstand its might. Its corpse fell onto the southern slopes of Mondstadt, creating the snowy mountain.

The poisonous blood Dvalin swallowed had corrupted him into the Stormterror of recent history.

But what lingered in Jia Changjiang’s mind was the voice he’d heard during his battle with Dvalin.

At the time, he hadn’t thought much of it. But now, standing at Durin’s resting place, those memories resurfaced.

That voice... childlike, naive, and pure.

Could that have truly been Durin, the so-called Black Dragon of Disaster?

Jia Changjiang gazed at the snow-covered peaks, his curiosity piqued. He decided to explore this mountain further.

It was something he had never fully understood before, so now seemed like a good time to uncover its secrets.

Besides, with his anti-freeze charm, the mountain’s bitter cold wouldn’t pose a problem.

This place seemed to harbor many mysteries.

Just as these thoughts swirled in his mind, Albedo returned from his preparations.

Jia Changjiang and Lumine regrouped with him, and Albedo asked, "What do you think of the camp?"

"It’s a mess. Things are scattered everywhere. How do you find anything in this chaos?" Lumine remarked.

Albedo nodded. "That’s true. But with experiments one after another, there’s little time to tidy up. Let’s focus on starting the next experiment."

He looked at Jia Changjiang and Lumine with a serious expression. "Although the previous experiments didn’t reveal major differences, there may still be significant variations between worlds."

"For example, in Teyvat, those with Visions can use elemental energy. But there could be worlds where only one person can use it, or where everyone can."

Jia Changjiang nodded. "There are even worlds where elemental energy doesn’t exist at all."

His statement caught Albedo’s interest. "A world without elemental energy? Is that where you came from, Jia Changjiang? Could that be why you, unlike Lumine, can’t naturally use elements? Perhaps your body is adapting post-arrival?"

He speculated further. "Then why would your body develop resistance to elemental energy? Was it a reaction after coming to Teyvat?"

Albedo turned to both of them. "So... do you possess any powers or abilities unique to your original worlds that are absent here?"

"Special powers..." Lumine repeated, her gaze shifting to Jia Changjiang.

When it came to powers not of this world, Jia Changjiang undoubtedly had more. He even occasionally revealed new ones.

But since they were his secrets, Lumine had refrained from prying.

Now that Albedo had brought it up, Lumine naturally turned to Jia Changjiang.

"Let’s confirm it through an experiment," Albedo said, gesturing to a massive stone pillar nearby. "Try using sheer willpower to break this pillar."
