Strange Key in Genshin Impact
Where to Find Strange Key
Teleport to the southern waypoint on Mount Mingyun, and then begin to descend down in a southwesterly direction towards the mouth of the river. Near the base of the cliff you will find crates, boxes and several treasure thieves.
Deal with the enemies led by the mini-boss “Who Am I?” with a slightly increased health scale. Then examine the white light that appears on the ground to pick up a Strange Key. Don't forget to open the regular chest nearby. You can also read the note on the box, which talks about a certain product.
How to use the strange key
Approach the flying simulacrum near the mountain and jump to reach the ledge with the next statue. Do this several times. The screenshots below show the location of all the stone sculptures.
As a result, you will find a wooden platform on which there is a cage with a simulacrum and a rich chest. Deal with all the enemies here, take the contents of the chest, and then open the cage using the key you found earlier.
Using the power of the Adepts (T key), take the sacred simulacrum with you, and then begin to follow the trail of pine cones scattered on the ground. To do this, first climb the wooden ladder in the southeast, and then climb the slope and go to the log on the edge of the cliff, next to which the squirrels have gathered.
< p>As soon as you place the statue on the illuminated platform located behind the log, a precious chest will immediately appear next to you. This completes the solution to the puzzle.
