Explorer of Teyvat

Xumi·Great Red Sand Sea·Red Sand Temple.

Sitting on the throne deep in the temple, Wang Daoyi was still thinking about Villette's expression at the end.

That gloomy look had confirmed that Wang Daoyi's guess was correct.

This Water Dragon King probably has some relationship with Nata.

As for why you say that,

It was mainly the gem around Villette's neck that gave Wang Daoyi some inspiration.

Wang Daoyi had seen that kind of beautiful gemstone in Ningguang's collection.

But even the collection of Ningguang is not as dazzling as the one on Villette's neck.

And this gemstone called [Opal] seems to have originated from Nata.

Combined with some news about Nata that Wang Daoyi learned - Nata is a country where humans and dragons coexist.

In this way, it is much more reasonable to speculate that Navilette and Nata are related.

"However, no matter how you put it, it is Fontaine's business and has nothing to do with me. Leaving a positioning gem is enough to give you face."

Although he had brought it up himself, Villette was regarded as a threat two or three times, and Funina was so unbearable that Wang Dao had no more concern for Fontaine.

If something really happens, taking action once is the limit.

"I have sent all the wedding invitations that need to be sent. For the remaining friends, let West Germany send people to help me send them."

Wang Daoyi's mind moved and his lips parted slightly;

"Kasha, let Cid come to see me."

God's will is always noble,

Not long after the instructions were given, Xi De appeared in front of Wang Daoyi, who was covered in travel dust.

"You seem very busy?" Wang Daoyi looked at West Germany with interest.

Wearing a desert robe, a rather delicate hairstyle, and skin that has not been exposed to the sun for a long time, West Germany even lacks the classic brown skin of desert people.

If it weren't for the fact that his body was still filled with the smell of wind and sand,

Wang Daoyi even thought that he was a wealthy businessman in a rainforest city rather than a warrior fighting against the wind and sand.

West Germany lowered his forehead in front of the god: "Under your glory, the tribe has developed extremely rapidly, and we have a serious shortage of management personnel."

The cultivation of talents takes time, and Wang Daoyi really doesn't like to abuse canned knowledge.

Therefore, Chisha's talent training system has gradually been unable to keep up with Chisha's development speed.

However, Wang Daoyi didn't care, it was just a pain in the process of development.

As the development of the barren desert gradually slows down, the rate of Chisha's external expansion will naturally slow down as well.

At that time, the cultivation of talents will naturally follow suit.

There’s no need to use canned knowledge to overthrow your efforts.

"Oh, I'm really too busy. You can put some unimportant projects on hold for a while." As the hands-off shopkeeper, Wang Daoyi still expressed concern.

Sid nodded respectfully: "I will try my best to arrange it."

"Yes." Wang Dao nodded and ignored the topic, "There is something I need you to arrange."

"Please give me your orders." West Germany was always in a state of obedience to Wang Daoyi's will.

Wang Dao waved his hand, and a large stack of wedding invitations with a red background and gold edges flew in front of West Germany.

"Send personnel to deliver these items to the people on the list."

A long list also flew to West Germany.

West Germany just looked around briefly and saw people from several different countries.

The Knights of Mondstadt, the owner of the winery...

Inazuma's social practice, street gang members...

A lot of people who don't match up at all appear on this list.

West Germany accepted the wedding invitation and list without asking anything: "I will arrange it as soon as possible."

Wang Dao nodded: "One share is for you. As my favored one, you have done a lot for me. Take a wedding invitation and as a family member, come and attend my wedding."

"!!!"

West Germany's eyes widened and he looked at Wang Daoyi in disbelief.

Under the excitement, tears fell uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.

What an honor it is to attend the wedding of the gods as a family, what a happiness...

Xi De didn't know what to say, so he made the simplest gesture. He worshiped in front of Wang Daoyi's throne and was reluctant to get up for a long time.

After a while,

Wang Daoyi spoke again: "Okay, get up and send the things out as soon as possible."

Sid stood up from the ground tremblingly. His excitement made it difficult for him to calm down. After bowing to the throne again, he turned around and left the temple with his things.

Looking at Xi De's back, Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly. Who would have thought that the old elder from a desert tribe he randomly selected could follow his footsteps and help him manage such a huge desert kingdom.

As Chisha's chief steward, West Germany's accumulated contributions are already incalculable.

Wang Daoyi or the Lord of Red Sand itself does not participate in the management of Red Sand. Apart from its function as a sea-fixing needle, it has basically no use.

And West Germany was the one who actually developed Chisha bit by bit.

Of course, in West Germany's heart, without the power of God, there would be no basis for him to develop Chisha.

And Wang Daoyi's decision to let West Germany attend his wedding as a family member was not an act to win people's hearts.

Wang Daoyi simply believed that West Germany could be regarded as his family.

Although they are not closely related, they can at least be considered distant relatives.

A butler who serves you for life is actually closer than most of your relatives.

"We have nothing to do here. Let's go back to Liyue first."

Wang Dao shook his head and disappeared from the throne.

The figure of the Lord of Red Sand reappeared, sitting on the divine throne instead of Wang Dao.

——

Thousand Valley Sand Land·Hidden Place.

A traveler who embarked on a journey in search of his brother, took his companions, and after playing happily with the cute little guy in the secret realm for nearly a month,

I finally remembered that I still had an unfinished journey.

With sincere emotions and someone in the secret realm, "Although I am useless, it's great to see you so useful!" ’ After saying goodbye to the pure water elves, the group left the secret realm in the bottle.

Her sight reappeared in the desert, and Ying couldn't help but stretch her body: "Although the secret realm in the bottle is really fun, I feel like my whole body is getting rusty after playing for so long."

"Haha, if you want to fight as an honorary knight, you can come to the West Wind Knights. Everyone is willing to train with you." Mr. Kaia, the cavalry captain, warmly invited Ying.

Ying shook her head quickly: "Forget it, I'd better go find trouble with the Qiuqiu people."

There is really no point in sparring with the knights. It would be better to rush into the Qiuqiu people's camp and stretch out for a while.

"Everyone, what is this?" A soft female voice attracted everyone's attention.

Like everyone else, Ying turned around and looked towards where Xinhai was speaking.

Several golden chains hovered in the air, and a hint of red trapped in the middle of the chains could be vaguely seen.

"Huh? It seems like..." Paimon flew to Ying's side and looked at the golden chain, with a familiar feeling in his eyes.

"It's Daoyi's secret chain." Ying could tell the origin of this chain at a glance.

"Has Dao Yi arrived?" Paimeng looked surprised.

Ying rolled his eyes at Paimon and said pointedly, "This is a desert."

As the lord of the desert, it seemed reasonable for Wang Daoyi to know that they were here.

Without any worry or fear, Ying walked directly towards the golden chain.

Sensing Ying's approach, the golden chains slowly squirmed, revealing what was sealed inside like a conscious life.

Only then did Ying see clearly that the touch of red was actually an invitation with a red background and gold edges.

He reached out to take the invitation and looked through it, a smile appeared on Ying's face.

"What is it?" Paimon's little head came closer.

Although I don’t have much education, I still know a lot of words.

Seeing the words on the wedding invitation, Paimeng also had a look of surprise on his face: "Dao Yi and Xiang Ling are getting married!"

"Huh?" Several people on the side were also attracted by Paimon's surprise shout.

Wang Daoyi's identity is no secret to them.

Is your Majesty getting married?

Although there was a sense of disbelief in their hearts, everyone looked at each other and didn't ask any more questions.

Xinhai smiled: "It seems that I have to return to Haiji Island as soon as possible. When your Majesty gets married, Haiji Island will definitely receive an invitation, so gifts must be prepared in advance."

"Ha, Qin is with the Knights, so I don't need to worry." Although Kaia was surprised inside, she still looked relaxed on the surface.

On the other hand, Youla and a young man from the Lawrence family, who were standing by the side without speaking, didn't know what they were thinking.

The fact that Youla and the Lawrence family members appeared here was more of a coincidence.

After Youla rectified the Lawrence family, there were naturally some people who did not agree with Youla's plan to govern.

This young man was one of them. He read through a large amount of Lawrence family information and found information about the secret land in the desert from the documents.

I want to rely on the desert secrets to restore Lawrence's glory.

But it is clear that the dangers in the outside world exceed the imagination of the naive Lawrence.

If Youra hadn't found him in time, he would have died in the secret realm.

"Lord of Red Sand? Lesig Lawrence, we also need to return to the station as soon as possible to prepare a gift." Youla looked at the tribesmen around her.

Lessig Lawrence nodded slightly: "I understand."

After experiencing many hardships and almost dying in the secret realm, Lesig Lawrence was able to understand the responsibility that Yula shouldered, and he was willing to obey Yula's instructions.

"In this case, I will go back and report to Master Tinari as soon as possible what happened recently." Kelai said timidly.

"In this case, we have to say goodbye." Paimon was a little reluctant.

Kaiya smiled and picked up the confused Keli: "It's just a temporary separation. See you in Liyue then."

Ying did not hide the words on the wedding invitation, and Kaia also knew the location of the banquet.

Everyone left the hidden place together, returned to the nearby Chisha Station, rested for a night, and finally went their separate ways.

After watching my friends leave,

Ying and Paimon looked at each other,

Paimon: "Then shall we go directly to Liyue now?"

Ying thought for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "Well... there is still a while. Let's go to the Adventurers Association to take on a mission and earn some mora, otherwise we won't even be able to send out gifts."

"Yes, we want to make money." Paimon nodded quickly and agreed with Ying's statement.

They had spent all their savings on setting up the star formation for Laila, but until now, their financial resources have not recovered.

If he hadn't been wandering around in the secret realm in a bottle for a month, eating and drinking for free, Paimon's food expenses might have been a problem.

"Let's go and ask Catherine if she has any easy and profitable tasks."

"If there was such a mission, someone would have taken it long ago."

"Then look for hunting missions. I don't want to play any more decryption and exploration missions."

Ying and Paimeng exchanged words with each other, and rushed to the Red Sand headquarters under the sunshine.

After the last desert adventure, the Adventurers Association opened a branch in the desert.

However, Zhidong also sent a Catherine over at the same time.

Although the Adventurers Association is headquartered in Solstice, it is indeed a neutral force.

Wang Daoyi did not expel them. Instead, he encouraged the people who did not join the Red Sand Army to participate in adventurous activities.

Adventure and exploration are the best ways to preserve the courage of a nation.

As long as the spirit of adventure and exploration remains alive, the courage of this nation will never run out.

After all, without the support of courage, there would be no legend of adventure and exploration.

Big Red Sand Sea, Fertile Oasis, Red Sand Headquarters,

Unlike the Adventurer Associations in other areas, the Adventurer Association here only occupies a small camp.

If it weren't for Miss Catherine's presence, this place would be more like a database than a place to receive adventurers.

Densely packed documents were piled in the camp. These were tasks issued and receipts for adventurers completing tasks.

The Desert Adventurers Association was established not long ago, and the only few officers were sent by the Xumi Adventurers Association.

The processing speed of official documents is very slow.

However, as long as Miss Catherine is here, the needs of desert adventurers can be satisfied.

After lining up to enter the camp and watching the adventurers in front accept the mission and leave, Ying and Paimon took a step forward: "Long time no see, Catherine. Are there any well-paying missions recently?"

Catherine looked up and smiled: "It's Traveler and Paimon. It's been a long time. I heard Jade talking about you a few days ago."

"Is Jade back?" Ying asked in surprise.

Catherine shook her head: "I took the mission and went out again. Now Jade is the leader of a large adventure group. She is very busy."

"Okay, I still want to play with her." Ying curled her lips in disappointment, and then changed the topic back, "Back to business, are there any well-paying tasks recently? It's best to be more direct, I don't want to at all. What are you playing to decrypt it?”

Facing Ying's inquiry, Catherine still maintained her standard smile.

"A simple and straightforward task with good rewards? Let me see."

Catherine opened a thick record book, which contained dense mission information.

In fact, as a robot, Catherine has the ability to calculate data.

However, under normal circumstances, Catherine would behave like a normal person.

"I took a look and there are probably a few tasks that are more in line with your requirements.

The first task,

Recently, an abnormal wind-eroded sandworm appeared at the Iron Oasis. Although it did not attack the oasis, it also damaged the trade routes. The person in charge of the oasis, Berat Kashak, asked many times about the wind erosion of the Chirping Sand. Sandworm, but none of them have been solved. Berat Kashak hopes that the Adventurers Association will help expel the abnormal wind-eroded sandworm.

The current bounty is 400,000 Mora, but twelve adventurer teams have already failed, and they can appropriately request an increase in reward.

The second task,

Recently, there have been a lot of monster gathering places around the Oasis Canal. Although Greta-sama has led people to clean up many times, there are still monsters left behind. The canal management has put up a reward. Every time a monster is cleaned up, you can get a reward based on the monster's level. You will receive a certain reward, and the other monster materials will be yours.

This bounty is not fixed. Thirty-six teams of adventurers have accepted the task. However, the canal is very long and the competition is not fierce.

The third task,

The Red Sand Temple has posted a reward for a large amount of precious materials. As long as the materials have good elemental properties or are very strong, the Red Sand Temple will purchase them at a price that is 10%-30% higher than the market price.

This is the most popular task recently, and the Red Sand Temple requires a very large amount of materials.

The fourth task,

The alchemy workshop in our headquarters is really conducting experiments on some kind of high-energy energy. If you have any special information, you can get a lot of rewards.

Currently, sixteen adventurer teams have accepted this quest, but none have completed it.

The Alchemy Workshop has increased the bounty to 1.5 million Mora.

…”

Catherine was a professional receptionist and quickly sorted through a large number of tasks.

Paimon looked at the bounties on the missions, and a golden light appeared in his eyes.

These tasks, which can cost tens of millions of molas, are much higher than the bounty tasks they did before.

You know, the reward for an ordinary member of the treasure stealing group is only one thousand molas, and the reward for a powerful Qiuqiu King is only about one hundred thousand molas.

Ying looked at the mission introduction, calculated the distance, and then said to Catherine: "I have accepted all four missions."

"Okay, I'll do it for you." Catherine said with a smile.

After summing up,

First go to the Alchemy Workshop to see if you can complete the task, then go to the Iron Oasis to deal with the abnormal wind-eroded sandworms, then go all the way along the canal to the Sanyal Oasis to complete the task of hunting monsters, and finally return with the hunting materials. Go to Chisha Headquarters and pay the commission to search for extraordinary materials.

In this way, all the tasks were completed, and the time was almost right before Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling's wedding.

After receiving the mission, Ying took Paimon and rushed to the alchemy workshop.

But I saw a familiar figure exchanging something with Nikolaid in front of the alchemy workshop.

"Well, let's talk about the matter of Athos' material later, when there is enough time..."

After explaining to Nicored, Wang Dao turned around and looked at Ying and Paimon.

"You two, long time no see."

Paimeng waved his hands excitedly: "Dao Yi, we received your wedding invitation and thought you had returned to Liyue."

Wang Daoyi smiled and said: "I am ready to go back, but I temporarily sensed your breath, so I stopped for a while."

He had planned to go back to Liyue directly, but he came to the alchemy workshop to wait when he felt the aura of Ying and Paimon coming back.

"Wait for us, what's wrong?" Ying looked at Wang Daoyi curiously.

Wang Daoyi looked at Ying, who had transformed into a working wife in order to prepare a gift for him: "It's no big deal, I just want to ask, when are you going to Fontaine?"

"Fengdan? Well... after you and Xiangling get married, it will be the Sea of ​​Lantern Festival. Let's go after the Sea of ​​Lantern Festival."

The migrant worker thought for a while and gave a time schedule.

"Okay, come to the temple to see me before you go. I have a commission for you."

Wang Dao had a smile in his eyes,

Although Villette and Funina were unwilling to tell their secrets, Wang Daoyi believed that those secrets would eventually reach his ears because of their presence.

There's nothing wrong with Ying. It's not the first time this kind of thing has happened.

Before she went to Daozhi, Wang Daoyi had entrusted her to deliver something.

"Okay, I'll take note of it." Ying nodded, then looked at Nicored, "We received a commission from the Adventurers Association, saying that you need help with your experiments?"
