Chapter 97 - Chapter 97: 5.1 Version Preview

The Traveler asked about the matter of the ancient name, and Xilonen's response caught them somewhat off guard.

"I can't do this." Xilonen said straightforwardly.

"Can't do it?" Paimon was startled upon hearing this, "But from Mavuika's tone, I thought you could definitely make it very easily."

"She even thinks that I can add a function to the Ruin Wheels, so that as soon as she shouts, the Ruin Wheels can transform into a robot form to fight."

"But I can't do that either."

When she said this, Xilonen's tone carried obvious resentment.

However, the girls at this moment could certainly understand why the other party's opinion was so strong.

Mavuika's request was indeed a bit too fanciful.

"Is it too difficult?" the Traveler asked.

"You could say that." Xilonen crossed her arms and explained the reason, "If it's forging an ancient name for the people of Natlan, that wouldn't be too difficult, but if it's for an outlander, the difficulty is just too great..."

Xilonen simply explained the current dilemma: the Traveler needs to leave some very renowned achievements in Natlan, and possibly even gain the acknowledgment of the Wayob, to have any hope of obtaining an ancient name.

"This matter probably can't be accomplished by me alone; it still has to rely on Citlali, the Master of the Night-Wind." Xilonen said.

"You mean... Grandma Citlali?" Kachina was somewhat surprised.

"Is she very powerful?" Paimon blinked her eyes.

"Citlali isn't the kind that can be described as powerful or not; she is the kind that..." Xilonen thought for a moment, not knowing how to put it, "She is the person who can help the most right now."

"I've already asked someone to send a letter to Citlali. Once she replies, we'll go to the Stadium of the Sacred Flame again to discuss how to forge an ancient name for the Traveler."

"If you have time, you can come with me too." Xilonen said.

Did the Traveler have time?

Of course, they had plenty of time.

"Since you're going together, then when Citlali replies to me, I'll notify you." Xilonen said.

"I want to ask something." Paimon raised her hand, "What if Citlali doesn't reply?"

"It should... be impossible, right?" Xilonen said, "I emphasized the urgency of the situation in the letter, and also explained that it's the Pyro Archon's task. Normally speaking, she should agree."

Even if Citlali has a somewhat eccentric personality in people's rumors, she wouldn't go so far as to defy the Pyro Archon's orders.

"Not long after the Pyro Archon stopped the Sacred Rite of Returning Flames, Citlali also came to the Stadium of the Sacred Flame, wanting to question the Pyro Archon."

"But according to others, she looked particularly happy when she left, as if she had encountered something joyful."

"I think Citlali should get along very well with this generation's Pyro Archon and won't passively respond to the orders."

Xilonen expressed her own thoughts.

[This generation's Pyro Archon?]

[Citlali this old? She even outlived the previous Pyro Archon?]

[She must be really old; didn't you hear Kachina call her Grandma Citlali?]

[I've seen this name several times and thought she was a character in the gacha pool, but she's not?]

[How is she not?]

[She's grandma generation; she definitely can't enter the gacha pool. It's not like anyone's fetish is grandmas.]

[Grandma Ping solo stan: Hello]

[What Grandma Ping; should be called Ping'er]

[Being old in age doesn't mean looking old. Look at Zhongli, Xianyun, Ganyu—these characters are actually very old, but they still look young.]

[Furina might look like a young girl, but her age is over 500.]

[But the ones you listed aren't humans. In Natlan, even the Pyro Archon is human. Won't this Citlali age and look old because of her age?]

[Checked it; the girl with the pinkish-purple hair in the PV is Citlali. She really has a young girl's appearance.]

[Since she appeared in the PV, she definitely can enter the gacha pool.]

[I can tell at a glance you're not human.jpg]

After learning the latest progress on the ancient name, the event's mission for this time also came to an end, and the players continued their adventures in Natlan.

Because the Traveler's new skin was really good-looking, plus the Pyro Traveler's strength was very nice, players also habitually brought the Traveler when farming the Spiral Abyss.

In addition, they discovered that if the Traveler was in the team and had changed into the new outfit, then when pressing the exit key or during story cutscenes, the little Paimon that popped up had also changed clothes.

But if the Traveler wasn't in the team, or hadn't changed into the new skin, then Paimon's appearance would be the same as before.

[This is miHoYo's conspiracy]

[Definitely want us to bring the protagonist to explore more, so they specially gave the protagonist new clothes]

Not many people agreed with this statement; most were contentedly seeking the meaning of travel in Natlan.

Until the 5.1 version preview livestream, the players immersed in the open world finally shifted their attention and began focusing on what would happen in the next version.

"It's here, it's here; the next version's preview livestream is here."

Some time before 8 PM, Mu Yang opened his livestream room and chatted with his fans.

[Next version only has one new 5-star, Xilonen; feels like Natlan's 5-star release speed is slower than Fontaine's]

[No choice; who told Mualani to temporarily change from 5-star to 4-star? Otherwise, by 5.1, Natlan would have 3 5-star characters, same speed as Fontaine]

[I think Mualani becoming 4-star is pretty good; after pulling her, she's even stronger than Kinich, simply invincible, clears Abyss effortlessly]

[Is she really that strong? But I feel Mualani's feel is really bad]

[After all, she's a 4-star; even though she has DPS, the feel is definitely relatively worse]

[Can only say that in the hands of experts, fully constellated Mualani's DPS is stronger than many previous 5-star main carries]

[But for players with poor mechanics, Mualani might be even harder to use than Kinich; although no energy issues, it's really hard to deal full damage in one rotation]

[I think both F2P players and meta slaves should pull Mualani; this character is not a loss to pull. If no mechanics, use as support; if good mechanics, Abyss solo carry]

[Didn't expect miHoYo to suddenly turn an originally 5-star character into 4-star; DPS capability cut a lot but still explosive, definitely lost a lot of money, right?]

[Family, pull Xilonen? I've been watching the leak groups for a long time; they all think Xilonen isn't great, feels not as good as Kazuha]

[People who often watch leaks should know: don't believe the leakers' game knowledge]

[Leakers crying weak is the norm]

[Xilonen package strong; damage amp, resistance shred, healing all very good. With her support ability, kicking Kazuha out of Neuvillette team is no problem]

Looking at the fans' comments, Mu Yang found it amusing and said: "Don't just see leak info and think Xilonen is really just a support."

"I saw in the plot when the Traveler gets the new outfit, she has a submachine gun; maybe in the previous livestream, she turned from support to main carry."
