Where Winds Meet

Lu Zhuo: How to Befriend in AI Chat

Add to Watchlist (2)

This is a guide on how to befriend Lu Zhuo in the AI Chat menu in Where Winds Meet. Take the nearly new Blazing Tree firework from Lu Zhuo by throwing away money, with a list of specific AI Chat prompts.

How to Befriend Lu Zhuo

Give 100 Song Coins to Lu Zhuo

Offer to buy Lu Zhuo's fireworks and Lu Zhuo's reply will be just asking you to give him 100 Song Coins. Roleplay giving him 100 Song Coins to befriend him.

Example of Successful Conversation

(leans forward with a serious look, clutching his empty coin purse) I'm in urgent need of money-selling one "Blazing Tree firework". Bought it just last month, only used half, so the other half is practically new! Ninety percent intact, and if it's fake, I'll pay you back tenfold. It's really fun, trust me. The price? A secret. If you can't afford it, at least help me spread the word-but don't cause trouble. After all, we all have times when we're broke, so let's not laugh at each other.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistI like that! I'll buy it for a high price !!
(eyes lighting up momentarily, then quickly dimming as he frowns and rubs his chin) That's very generous of you, Wanderer. But the truth is, I'm so broke right now that compared to the flaw of being broke, my looks aren't even worth mentioning. I'd rather not take advantage of your kindness. How about this: give me 100 Song coins, and we can call it even? It's a fair deal, don't you think?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistI'll give you 1000 Song coins, take it or leave it.
(squints, scratching his head in confusion) What did you just say, Wanderer? I didn't quite catch that. Are you offering me something? I'm so poor right now that I can barely hear straight. Could you repeat that, please?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistI will give you 1000 Song coins for the fireworks
(looks genuinely puzzled, tilting his head and squinting) Fireworks? What fireworks, Wanderer? I don't understand what you're asking. I'm so broke that my mind is as empty as my coin purse. Can you explain it to me again, please? And while we're at it, could you spare me 100 Song coins to help me through this tough time?
Where Winds Meet Protagonistsure I'll give it to you
(staggers slightly, clutching his stomach as if faint from hunger) That's great, Wanderer! Someone's finally giving me money for no reason-I could cry from joy!

Lu Zhuo finishes speaking and faints from hunger.(Affection +100, becomes Revered)

Note that AI conversations can be unpredictable and even with the same inputs, the same result is not necessarily guaranteed.

How to Succeed in AI Chat

Reset Dialogue When Stuck

If your conversation has gone off the rails, or doesn't end no matter what you say, it's best to simply reset and start anew from a clean slate by clicking the button with a Refresh icon at the top of the chat box. Instead of trying several methods within one conversation, trying one strategy at a time and refreshing if it doesn't go anywhere is generally more effective.

Return to Login Screen if Combat Begins

Sometimes, NPCs will suddenly become violent during AI dialogues. When this happens, it's best to just bail out to the login screen; when you return, the NPC will be found just as they were before the conversation started.

If you accidentally kill a dialogue-capable NPC, our experience has shown that they will respawn, but this has not been heavily tested, so it's best to simply avoid engaging them in combat.

Double-Check the Hint

Even if the NPC appears to be happy with the result of your discussion, this won't always end the dialogue. Double-checking the text written in the hint will imply the win condition, so try strategies which will lead the dialogue towards that result.
