(Brain storage)
Because Lin Yiyi had to preside over a religious rite, he had no choice but to eat vegetarian food and keep himself clean.
After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Yiyi casually found an inn to stay in temporarily. The place was shabby, but it was barely habitable.
Filled with immense curiosity, he opened Genshin Impact again after it had unexpectedly crashed.
The familiar seven-element symbols were still arranged in a circle, followed by a clockwise rotation. This was already the second time. After that, Lin Yiyi entered the game as usual.
"Huh? Did they redo the loading animation?" Lin Yiyi muttered inwardly, but he did not pay it much attention. "Chiori is here, and there should be a mixed banner with Mondstadt characters too."
A mixed banner was a banner that gathered characters who had not received reruns for a long time or had low ownership rates, allowing players to pull for them together. Naturally, there were still soft pity and hard pity mechanics.
Lin Yiyi looked around casually before logging out. Yet another Genshin Impact app suddenly appeared among the apps on his phone. It still had the familiar Paimon, still winking her left eye, still making a V-sign.
But unlike the other one, this Genshin Impact app was called Teyvat.
"Hm? I don't remember downloading another server."
Between uninstalling it and tapping it, Lin Yiyi chose the latter. A new app had an inexplicable pull on everyone.
After opening it, the screen did not automatically turn horizontal as he had expected. Instead, there was a pale blue interface. The first things he saw were his own name and ID, followed by his Adventure Rank.
Below that was his exploration progress, and beneath it was a row labeled with several words.
"The following characters can be invited to your world."
Looking further down, he saw his character roster.
"?" If a hotel attendant had happened to pass Lin Yiyi's room and could see inside, they would practically have felt the curiosity overflowing from him.
"Is it like in those novels, where you can invite people over?"
Lin Yiyi scrolled through the list and decided to tap a white-haired girl who seemed easier to talk to.
If he really could invite someone, her personality meant she would not immediately go on a killing spree.
What appeared next was the character's status panel.

After quickly reviewing his own panel, Lin Yiyi saw a prompt at the very bottom.
"Invite this character?"
Without a second thought, Lin Yiyi pressed confirm.
A pale blue vortex then appeared before him. As it gradually expanded, Lin Yiyi saw an entirely different scene.
It was a bedroom that was not particularly large, but clean and tidy. Unlike a modern city, everything was built from wooden boards. Lin Yiyi naturally recognized the place—it was the Kamisato Estate.
He then noticed a white-haired girl with a high ponytail standing by the entrance. Her icy blue eyes stared at him in faint surprise.
After staring at him for quite some time, she immediately conjured a purple longsword in her hand.
"Who goes there?!"
The girl's puzzled gaze instantly sharpened. She held Mistsplitter Reforged before her and lowered her center of gravity slightly. Though the movement looked simple, it was a stance that could both attack and defend.
At that moment, however, Lin Yiyi's mind had completely crashed.
Huh? What's going on? Why did a wormhole-like portal suddenly pop up, and then I saw Kamisato Ayaka????
What the hell is this??
Seeing that the man gave no response whatsoever, Kamisato Ayaka did not dare act rashly and could only call out again, "Why has Your Excellency appeared here?"
It took Lin Yiyi quite a while to react. "Huh? Ah, ah, ah? Oh, oh, oh... um..."
But Lin Yiyi could hardly explain it. I can't exactly say that this phone somehow opened a wormhole for you, and you can come to my world through it, can I?
Who would believe that?
"If I said I accidentally opened a spatial tunnel, would you believe me..." Lin Yiyi muttered to himself.
But he had underestimated Kamisato Ayaka's hearing. She stared at him in disbelief. "Huh?"
"A spatial tunnel? Like the one above Araumi?"
Only then did Lin Yiyi remember that there were similar spatial tunnels in Araumi, above Musk Reef, and at the Jadeplume Terrorshroom's nest.
"Yes, yes, something like that." Lin Yiyi's brain finally started working again, and he gave an embarrassed smile.
Kamisato Ayaka looked toward the area behind the young man, but Lin Yiyi was in an inn, so she could only make out that he was indoors.
Lin Yiyi said awkwardly, "I don't have any other intentions. I just accidentally opened this tunnel due to a strange turn of events."
Come on, I can't possibly say that it appeared just because I tapped around on my phone, right?
"Um, I came to invite you to visit our world. If you don't mind, Ayaka, would you like to come over?"
Lin Yiyi scratched his head, unsure how to communicate with her.
The longsword flickering with purple light in the girl's hand suddenly vanished, and Kamisato Ayaka began observing the room on the other side.
It was like the stone door on the login screen. Once she stepped through it, she would enter another world.
Lin Yiyi was not in a hurry. Kamisato Ayaka was a smart person, so it was only natural for her to consider the pros and cons.
"Miss Ayaka, actually, there wouldn't be any bad consequences if you came over..." Lin Yiyi muttered softly, in a voice so quiet that even he could barely hear it.
Yet the girl heard the mosquito-soft whisper clearly. Kamisato Ayaka looked at the young man and sensed no dangerous aura from him.
"Well, I happen to know a friend who is a Traveler from another world. If I can learn more about other worlds, it would not necessarily be a bad thing. Perhaps I might even have more to discuss with her."
Kamisato Ayaka smiled faintly as she thought this.
"My lady, be careful!"
Just as the girl was about to step into the other world, an anxious voice sounded from behind her.
"Ah, that's Thoma," Kamisato Ayaka explained to Lin Yiyi. "Thoma is our housekeeper, but before that, he is first and foremost my friend."
Thoma looked utterly incredulous. "Who are you? What are you trying to do to my lady?"
Lin Yiyi was just about to explain when Kamisato Ayaka spoke first. "It's all right, Thoma. This gentleman has invited me to his world. Besides, I also wish to travel to other worlds like the Traveler. Since I have nothing to do today, it would be fine to go out for a walk."
Thoma still wanted to say something, but Ayaka interrupted him with a smile. "Don't worry, Thoma. This gentleman will not harm me."
"I trust him."
"Oh, and aside from my brother, you may tell him where I have gone. But if anyone else comes looking for me, just say that I had matters to attend to and went out today."
With a faint smile on her face, Kamisato Ayaka gently lifted her foot and stepped into another world.
