The original god, the zero-seat executive of the Fools

"You're being dishonest again."

Knox stopped talking and looked away, slightly raising his head to look at the stars and lanterns in the sky.

"Ho ho..." Nacida couldn't help laughing. She also followed Knox's example and leaned her slender back against the wall.

Soothing music floats in, and a quiet atmosphere lingers.

......

"Ling, where were you last night? We obviously went to see a show together, but in the blink of an eye I couldn't find you. Did you get separated because there were too many people?"

Early in the morning, at the breakfast table in the Hall of the Past, Paimon curiously asked Knox, who was chewing a bun.

Knox didn't look at her and said casually: "I had a headache due to the noise, so I found a quiet place."

"Eh? Didn't I hear that you like the excitement the most? Is it because you have been sleeping for too long that you feel uncomfortable when you wake up?" Paimon was a little concerned.

Ying and Hu Tao, who were also at the dinner table, also cast their gaze.

"Thinking too much." He didn't slow down because of other people's concerns, his tone was as unkind as ever.

Fortunately, no one cared about this, but the concern on Paimon's face turned into regret: "If that's the case, then you missed last night's performance in vain."

"That's not the case." Knox raised his face. He didn't know if it was for the sake of food and accommodation these days, but he smiled at Hu Tao: "Hallmaster Hu's rap is very good."

"Oh! You are very discerning!" Hutao immediately showed a big smile, and then invited naturally: "I saw you sleeping soundly a few days ago, so I didn't disturb you too much. Since you are awake now and your body is fine, Then please come to the dinner tonight."

"Dinner?" Knox was a little confused.

"It's Hu Tao who wants to treat everyone to dinner. It's at the Xinyue Xuan, which requires reservations long in advance! It's a great gesture!" When talking about the dinner in the evening, Paimon immediately became excited. In her opinion, Ling Zuo and herself Likewise, as a master of food, he will definitely resonate with her in this regard.

Ying also said: "We and Zhongli will also be there, as well as some of our other friends in Liyue. We are all very good people, and you can also make some new friends."

After saying this, Knox understood that it was a gathering of relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year.

Knox couldn't help but sneer: "I'll forget it, I'm not suitable for appearing in such an occasion, and I'm not interested in making any friends."

"Hey - how can we forget it?" Hutao immediately became unhappy. He coughed twice, showed a serious expression, and said with a certain Zhongli demeanor: "Invite relatives and friends to a small gathering, and share the cup of fine tea. Let's enjoy it together." The numerous lanterns on the dome mean bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new—"

After he finished speaking, the dignified expression disappeared: "Look, what a wonderful scene! It will be a great regret in life if you miss it, just think of it as a favor for this hall master... no, to give guest guest Zhongli some face - please, please~ "

Walnut clasped her hands towards Knox and said with a smile.

"Sorry, not interested." Knox refused decisively.

He put down his chopsticks and stood up and said, "Thank you for the hospitality. I promised Brother Zhongli to stay in Liyue for a few days during the Hai Lantern Festival. Since the Hai Lantern Festival has passed, I won't bother you too much. The food and accommodation for these few days..." Nuo Kes paused and said, "Deduct it from Zhongli's salary."

As soon as the words fell, black flames filled the air, and the figure escaped into the void.

"Eh!"

Hu Tao stretched out his hand, but it was obviously too late.

Sighing helplessly, Hutao couldn't help but mutter: "Let's go as soon as we say it, there is really no delay at all..."

"Um, I'm sorry, Hu Tao." Already used to Knox's tendency to disappear whenever he disagreed with her, Ying just sighed and turned around to apologize for the guy: "Ling has such a personality, don't mind it..."

"It doesn't matter." Hutao waved her hand and said magnanimously: "Although I don't know why, I felt that I might be rejected before the invitation."

After that, he muttered in a low voice: "Really, it's just a piece of wood..."

Chapter 220 Anecdotes of New Sumeru City

A bit of coldness fell on Nasida's white and tender skin.

She raised her face and looked at the dim sky. Dense snowflakes were floating like goose feathers to the land of Sumeru.

It’s snowing in Xumi?

Nasida was a little surprised, but she didn't pay too much attention to it. Snow was indeed very rare in Sumeru, but in the final analysis, it was just a type of weather. As long as certain conditions were met, it would definitely appear.

Standing at the highest point of the Apostolic Order, Nasida turned her attention back to Xumi City, which had been completely renovated and had an area that was more than twice the original size.

Spacious roads extending in all directions, centered on the Ecclesiastical Order, cover the entire city like a spider web.

Even though the area has more than doubled than its original size, Xumi City is still overcrowded today.

With all the scholars of the Miaolun sect working tirelessly to provide the framework, countless war prisoners as labor force around the clock, and with a large and sufficient supply of funds, the New Sumeru City was finally successfully built a week ago.

Today is the day for enrollment in the expanded Teaching Order.

In order to attract more young men to join the Grass God Imperial Guard, the Order of the Order promised to give the relatives of those who joined the army priority to attend the Order of the Order.

But even if all the [-] active members of the Grass God Imperial Guard have relatives who have successfully enrolled, the current Imperial Academy has been expanded to occupy the entire area of ​​Xumi City!Even if there were an influx of [-] students at once, this unprecedented giant college would still seem too empty.

So after discussions among the senior officials of the Teaching Order, Nasida personally made the final decision. The enrollment of the Teaching Order will be open to all Sumeru people. Anyone who is a Sumeru person and is under the age of 20 can pass a certain degree of academic knowledge, After the family composition and character test, you can enter the New Order Academy to study, with a cap of 10 people.

Of course, not only the students, but also the number of teachers is equally important, but there is no need to worry about this, because as early as the beginning of the construction of New Sumeru City, the Teaching Order Institute has been actively calling on the Teaching Order Institute graduates from all over the continent to return to the Teaching Order Institute Teach.

Under the temptation of luxurious salary conditions and an unprecedented academic environment, thousands of graduates of the Teaching Academy have returned one after another to this day. It can be said that the faculty of the Teaching Academy has reached an unprecedented level.

It is against this background that Miss Lisa, the librarian of Mondstadt, also took advantage of the rare long vacation to plan to revisit her old place.

But although it was said to be her old place, in fact when she first came to New Sumeru City, Miss Lisa could no longer find any trace of the city she was familiar with.

But fortunately——

"This is it, Miss Lisa." Kelai led Lisa, who was no different from a newly arrived tourist, to stop in front of a long queue.

"Hmm, but there are so many people..." Kelai scratched his hair in distress, and then looked at Lisa sheepishly: "How about I accompany Miss Lisa to visit first, and wait until there are fewer people here? Come back and sign up.”

With a smile on her face, Lisa was silently observing this good friend Amber had mentioned to her many times along the way. In fact, she did not expect that because Xumi City had become so big and unfamiliar now, she had no choice but to Please ask my fellow disciples who serve in the Order Academy to show you the way.

As a result, the other party said that there were too many people in Xumi City today, and as the Discipline Officer, he needed to lead the Disciplinary Officers to maintain order in the city, and then introduced Ke Lai, who was about to go to the city to enroll in the Order Academy.

Let her accompany Kelai to complete the registration, and then Kelai will act as her tour guide.

After knowing that Kelai was the Sumeru friend that Amber often mentioned, Lisa immediately agreed. Then she quietly observed the whole way here. She was indeed a very cute little girl. Originally, she was worried - —Being with that executive all the time, is there any other reason for becoming friends with Amber... Of course, even now, this possibility is not ruled out.

Lisa smiled slightly, and when faced with Kelai's proposal, she readily agreed: "Okay, after all, with such a long queue, it will probably be dark when it's our turn."

"Because there are so many people signing up. I heard from Master Tinari that there are more than 100 registration points set up in the city."

"Haha, the current teaching academy is really amazing." Lisa said with interest: "A whole city-sized academy is really a courageous decision. I think it must be very pleasant to study in such an environment. Let’s do it.”

Ke Lai turned around and said to Lisa: "Isn't Miss Lisa also a graduate of the Teaching Academy? Now the Teaching Academy very much welcomes graduates to return to teach in the academy."

Lisa laughed: "It's better to forget what I said~"

After all, she had been with Knox for quite a while, and Colai was quite good at observing what was happening. Sensing that Lisa didn't want to talk more about this matter, she quickly changed the subject and said, "Well, it's almost noon now. Well, how about we find a place to have lunch first? I know there is a very delicious restaurant nearby!"

"Really? Then I want to give it a try." Lisa showed her interested expression again.

While Ke Lai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He entered the Teaching Academy to study...

To be honest, she had never thought about it before.

This time too, if the master hadn't strongly suggested that a girl her age should go to school, learn more useful knowledge, and make more friends of the same age, which would not only improve herself, but also be beneficial to her mental health. Finally, She also said that even if she went to the Order Academy to study, the position of ranger would still be reserved for her.

In order not to disappoint her master, she reluctantly agreed, but seeing the long queue at the registration point, and then thinking about how there are hundreds of such teams, so many students will study together in the future... Just imagine, I felt extremely nervous.

But the most important thing now is to be a good tour guide for Miss Lisa who has come from afar, and not let her mood affect her interest in visiting.

"We're here, Miss Lisa." Kelai took Lisa to the door of a simple restaurant. She pointed at the door and said with a smile: "It doesn't look very simple outside, but the Lambard here The fish tacos are really good. If you are not a local, few people will know about it and come here!”

"Really? It's really exciting~" Lisa smiled at Kelai.

While he was talking, Kelai had already pushed open the wooden door of the restaurant with the "Opening" sign, and then an extremely familiar voice came over.

"Hmm! This...this...this fish taco is so delicious! Traveler, let's go find the boss and buy the recipe for this dish! If I can eat it every day, I will definitely die of happiness!"

Chapter 221 Breaking the noise of 500 years of peace

"Apepp, the Dragon of Grass, I can give you two choices, give your power, or have it taken away by me."

In the yellow sand of the sky, a rather small figure stood high in the sky. The eyes that should have been clear were already engulfed by the furious scarlet: "This is your only value now."

The huge dragon that can be said to cover the sky and the sun roared angrily: "You are a small human being, do you think you have stolen the power of the gods and you can do whatever you want? You are just a stupid person who will eventually burn yourself!"

"Playing with fire and setting myself on fire?" The skirmisher's delicate cheek twitched slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress something. He held his temple with one hand and suddenly became furious: "You said that I was playing with fire and setting myself on fire!?"

The roar of hiss silenced the noisy yellow sand for thousands of miles, but the ancient dragon would not be timid because of this little power. Apep's huge vertical pupils moved slightly, and it stared at this sudden appearance in front of it. The small figure talking nonsense in front of him smiled.

The low laughter echoed throughout the world. It was not an expression of joy, but a mockery: "So that's it."

"The power of Nenox appears in your body." Apep laughed: "That extremely arrogant guy has fallen into this situation!"

It seemed that he was stung by this unbridled ridicule, even if it was not directed at him, but the skirmisher at this moment was already a dynamite barrel overwhelmed by rage, ready to explode at a moment's notice.

"Ah...that's enough." The soldier tried his best to calm down his expression, but the scarlet in his eyes became more intense.

"It was my mistake to think that I can communicate with an old antique like you." He raised his hand and grinned crazily: "You'd better die."

Endless jet-black energy surged out, and thousands of miles of yellow sand instantly turned into thick and sticky darkness. The desert where the Grass Dragon had lived for countless years turned into a night territory with infinite murderous intent for it.

Apep roared up to the sky, and its body bloomed with dark green brilliance. Although its power had already been extremely weakened, as one of the oldest beings in the world, even if it was weakened, its majesty was not something that anyone could challenge arbitrarily.

A war that was undoubtedly on the level of a demon god descended on this desert that had been peaceful for 500 years.

......

“I never expected that I would meet Lisa in Xumi!”

In the quiet restaurant, Ying and Paimon sat across from each other, and later Collet and Lisa.

"Haha~" Lisa covered her mouth and smiled: "Travel is not your exclusive privilege. Although in such a big world, it is indeed very destined that we would meet in a small restaurant, but after all, I was also Scholars of the Jiaoling Academy, now that something terrible has happened in the Jiaoling Academy, and there have been such incredible changes, isn't it natural for me to take advantage of the rare paid vacation to come and take a look?"

"That's right." Pamon floated beside Ying, the doubt on his face did not disappear: "But why is Lisa and Cole together?"

"Miss Lisa accompanied me to register at the Order Academy." Kelai explained: "Miss Lisa is a friend of Master Tinari and Mr. Saino."

"So that's it!" Paimon said with emotion that the world is really small.

"Register for the Teaching Order?" At this time, Yingye also spoke. She noticed the key words in Ke Lai's words and asked with some surprise: "Is Ke Lai going to join the Teaching Order?"

Kelai scratched his hair in embarrassment: "Well, Master Tinari said that now is a new era of change in Xumi. As the center of the storm of change, the now much purer Teaching Academy is the best place to learn knowledge."

Speaking of this, Paimon suddenly became excited, her big eyes sparkling with interest: "We were really shocked when we returned to Xumi yesterday. The new Order Academy is super big! It's super beautiful. , I was thinking at that time, if I could go to school in a place like this, even I would be willing to study hard!"

"Changes can't be achieved by just expanding the area of ​​the college and recruiting more students." Lisa held up her cheeks and smiled softly: "What happened in Xumi in the past six months, even in Meng I have also heard about virtue.”

"It should be said that the current New Order was born based on the failure of the entire Xumi." Lisa narrowed her eyes slightly: "It was born in the storm set off by the executive officer who fooled everyone."

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent, because everyone present knew who the person Lisa was talking about who started the storm single-handedly.
