The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

This... Xia Yu, who was holding the rock slime with both hands and smiling on his face, made Qin fall into silence. Can the rock slime build the bridge?This kind of content that is completely in the blind area of ​​knowledge is probably not known to many people in Mondstadt. After all, there was no precedent for harmonious coexistence with these monsters before Xia Yu came to Mondstadt.

But based on my understanding of Xia Yu, he is definitely not the kind of person who talks big. "No problem, let's go to the scene to check the situation." Qin nodded and agreed, standing up.

"Kelly..." Before Qin could finish her words, the little guy who was squatting on the ground suddenly stood up. His frightened expression showed that the little guy had definitely been scolded by Qin.

"Yes! Keli will go to the solitary room now..."

"What are you talking about? Take us to the scene first and let's go."

The bridge repair matter is of great importance, so just go to the site to investigate and then decide what to do next.

————————————————————————

"I'm sorry, because the bridge piers were hit by a certain explosion, so the merchants who came with the carriage were asked to transport the goods into the city through the waterway over there, or to wait for these transport balloons to carry the goods through."

At the main entrance of Mondstadt City, several members of the Knights of the West Wind were orderly directing the emergency response at the scene of the incident. Their professional behavior showed that this was not the first time they had dealt with a similar emergency.

Although the crowds at the city gate are queuing up in an orderly manner, after all, because the festival is approaching, there are many more merchants traveling to and from Mondstadt than usual. The lack of transportation capacity has gradually caused queues at the city gate. There was a long queue.

This is really a troublesome matter that is stuck at a critical point... Looking at the increasingly crowded situation at the city gate, Qin sighed.Arriving in front of the brown-haired knights who were maintaining order at the scene, Qin said: "Swan, report the situation at the scene."

"Yes, Captain, Lawrence and I heard the explosion coming from the other end of the bridge when we were on duty and rushed over immediately. Then we saw the cute person who took the Seven Saints summoning character card from the hands of a man dressed as Sumeru. Li looked at the blackened explosion traces under the bridge."

"When we felt something was wrong, we immediately stopped all permissions for medium and heavy cargo carriages to enter the city, and then transferred three flying cargo balloons for emergency use by merchants."

"It's just that it's just before the Wine Festival, and there are too many merchants. Mr. Abedo and the others went to Longji Snow Mountain again. Currently, the recruited members of the West Wind Knights have to search the city for buildings where they don't know where to rest. Master, if you wait a little longer, you should be able to get a response."

Sure enough, the situation is a bit troublesome... The pile-up of various troubles makes Qin, who was already busy due to the festival, even more headache.Turning to look at Keli who was feeling guilty, Qin said, "Keli, after the matter is settled, go to the solitary room to reflect. During the holidays, I will let you out to rest for a few days, and then continue to accept the punishment."

"Yes..."

After arranging how to deal with the little guy, Qin turned his attention back to Xia Yu, "Mr. Xia Yu, the repair work of the bridge used for entering and exiting Mondstadt City is not child's play, because there is indeed no precedent of using slime for repair. I hope you can be responsible for your words and deeds." Qin looked particularly serious when she started to explain.

"Well, although I haven't used slime to repair it, this is something the gods told me I can do, so I think there should be no problem." Xia Yu nodded and followed Qin and Keli to the bridge pier. location, and then observed the situation at the scene.

Because of the bomb explosion, the surface of the square stone blocks that were originally strong and polished with large bluestones became somewhat pitted, and fine cracks spread to at least three or four stone bricks. As for whether the internal structure of the bridge piers was damaged, because there is no professional Equipment and this is not his major, Xia Yu couldn't tell for a while.

The stone bridge in Mondstadt certainly does not have steel bars inside like modern bridge buildings. Despite the existence of 'magic technology' such as alchemy, the broken bridge piers will not be classified as minor damage to the future of the building. Category...

"Come out, rock slimes." He simply summoned all the rock slimes he carried from the card. Although there were a dozen large and small gray slimes, they were not like the hundreds of slimes he had during the emergency repairs. The gathering of Lime is so spectacular, but it is also enough to attract the attention of those who come and go.

Looking at the happy and somewhat curious expressions of the little gray dumplings surrounding him, Xia Yu pointed to the location of the cracks in the bridge pier. "Can you repair these cracked stones? You have to make sure that the stones above them don't collapse."

After making demands to the little guys, the rock slimes who jumped to the stone pier began to look at the damaged bridge pier like professional engineers.The little guys milling around the bridge piers and Xia Yu nodding from time to time made Qin look very nervous.

Is this really reliable?Just when Qin started to doubt whether her decision was really reliable, Xia Yu, who had finished communicating with the little guys, spoke.

"Captain Qin, is there any crystal ore mined in the city now? If so, please bring a small box over, and then the problem will be solved." Xia Yu, who looked confident, made Qin sigh in relief. , raised his head and looked at the members of the Knights on the bridge, Qin shouted loudly: "Go and get a box of crystal ore quickly."

"Crystal block? I happen to have it here! You guys, hurry up and move a small box down! It's too time-consuming to be stuck here." A businessman with a carriage full of ore immediately took over the conversation and directed his subordinates After sending the ore down, the businessman, who was looking forward to the resumption of traffic, stood by the bridge and looked at Xia Yu and his party who were preparing for repair work below.

This... Although I heard that there are people in Mondstadt who can live in harmony with monsters, can these slimes really be used to build bridges?Seeing the rock slimes lying on the crystal block 'eating' and melting all the crystal blocks, the merchant's curiosity was piqued.

On the roads between Liyue and Mondstadt, monsters like rock slimes are also considered a common type. Compared with Qiuqiu people, under normal circumstances, as long as you don't provoke these round guys, these monsters will not Actively attack human caravans.

However, this was the first time he had seen this strange scene. The businessman, who was curious about what would happen next, looked at the rock slime who had finished eating first and lay down like a popped balloon. It was at the damaged location of the bridge pier, and then there was no movement again.

What is this doing?Although it looked extremely peaceful on the surface, the rock slimes that had already started lining up and the merchant's keen senses told him that things were definitely not as peaceful as they seemed on the surface.

The same emotion also appeared on Qin, who was the acting leader. The rock slimes attached to the stone pillars were alternating seamlessly, so that he couldn't even see that they were obscured by these small gray-black balls. What kind of scene is it.

A small box of crystal blocks was quickly eaten clean by the rock slimes. After the last rock slime was removed from the bridge pier, the inside of the bridge pier that had been covered up by the little guys was finally revealed. What it looks like now.

This, how is this possible! ?Even Qin, as the acting leader, was shocked by the sight before her.Upon entering the eye, the originally damaged heavy gray stone bricks turned into bright blue translucent crystal bricks. Although the material has lost the crystal clear color of the original crystal blocks, this non-completely transparent sky blue stone bricks are It gives people a quite reassuring feeling.

As the acting leader of the Knights, Qin is quite clear about the durability of weapons made from crystal blocks. Normal weapons only need to be smelted with a small amount of crystal blocks, and the forged weapons will become quite easy to use. .

However, the smelting of crystal blocks is a very laborious task for blacksmiths, so even members of the Knights, most of them only use high-quality white iron forged steel to make weapons.

Unexpectedly, the crystal blocks were used to repair bridges. I wonder how the members of the Knights will feel when they see these 'stone piers' in the future...

"Okay, that's it." Xia Yu smiled as he knelt down and stroked the heads of these little guys who were begging for rewards. "Rock slimes can digest various ores and stones in the body, and then mix them with rock elements and other things to excrete them out of the body."

"But this is also physical work for them, so generally you don't see rock slimes doing this kind of thing. The little guys, they 'buckle' the cracked bricks from the inside little by little. When it comes out, replace it with new 'concrete' mixed with crystal blocks, and then use rock elements to accelerate their solidification."

Can this kind of thing be done?Looking at these new bricks, Qin raised his hand and knocked lightly. He was so surprised that he froze in place.

What was the earliest standard that Mondstadt's nobles required of themselves?That must be to the extent that they can lead the people of Mondstadt forward in all walks of life. Even though the development of all walks of life no longer requires nobles to have overly professional industry knowledge, Qin thinks that the basic understanding is still Adhere to the standards of the nobility and do it right.

Therefore, it can be seen at a glance whether the replacement crystal bricks are strong and durable. Even without alchemy for subsequent processing, these solid stones can be used for hundreds or thousands of years at least. The quality of general bluestone bricks is much higher.

"Thank you, Mr. Xia Yu. The Knights owe you another favor... If you need help from the Knights, just ask." While thanking Xia Yu, a strange thought appeared in Qin's mind.

There was only a wall between the head's office and the solitary room, but even when she was reflecting in the solitary room, she was still studying her bombs.Although when he was in the confinement room, the little guy was indeed much calmer and would not cause a large-scale explosion, but accidents were like this, and no one could tell what would happen.

The strength of this kind of crystal ore brick should be able to withstand the explosion of a bomb. So, should we replace all the walls of the confinement room with this kind of strong bright blue brick?

Chapter 354: Sharing cards makes people lose their sanity, and the Seven Saints summon Gao Jie’s first victim

The crowded bridge was finally restored to smooth flow after repairs. The caravan entering Mondstadt in an orderly manner made Qin, who was standing under the bridge, sigh in relief. Then he looked at Xia Yu and Yan Shi, the main hero, with grateful eyes. Lymes.

Compared to Qin, who was still rejoicing that the problem had been solved, the already lively and cheerful child tended to express his emotions more directly. Keli ran up to him and picked up a basketball-sized rock slime and rubbed it affectionately. After a moment, he raised his head and looked at Xia Yu with bright eyes.

"Thank you, Brother Xia Yu~! In this way, I can study in the confinement room with peace of mind... and be in confinement." Halfway through, Keli remembered that Qin was still beside her and forcefully swallowed the research bomb that had reached her mouth. go back.

The little guy, who was a little lucky, first put the rock slime back on the ground. He ignored the piercing look in Qin's eyes. He looked through his small bag as if nothing had happened, and then took it out. He picked up a character card of his own and handed it to Xia Yu.

"This is my thank you gift to Brother Xia Yu. I originally planned to give it to you after my match with Brother Xia Yu, but my brother helped solve the trouble caused by Keli, so I gave it to you directly."

Without giving Qin any chance to interrupt, the little guy with oiled feet quickly ran towards the city. "Keli will report to the solitary room now! After the introspection is over, brother Xia Yu must remember to have a seven-sage summons with Keli~" Keli's sunny smile turned around and waved her hand after running a short distance. Qin, one of her guardians, shook her head helplessly.

What went wrong to make the little guy like this...?Keli, who was raised by Albedo and everyone in the Knights, can be regarded as a child that everyone in Mondstadt likes. After a long period of influence from the members of the Knights, the little kid is not only very sensible, but also has a very correct sense of right and wrong. concept and sense of responsibility.

But why do so many problems arise when it comes to things related to bombs...

"Mr. Xia Yu, what Keli caused is really troublesome for you." After thanking Xia Yu again, Qin watched the gray dumplings originally on the ground lining up to jump towards the position of the card bag on Xia Yu's waist, and then disappeared within his own field of vision.

???

How is this done?As the first supervisor when Summon of the Seven Saints was introduced to Mondstadt, Qin, who had tried it and had character cards, naturally understood what kind of game Summon of the Seven Saints was.

Compared with ordinary card games, which are purely about luck and psychological games, the Call of the Seven Saints, which has certain operability and is more interesting and competitive, is indeed better and has been loved by Mondstadt testers.

The most obvious example is that there is another rule in the regulations of the Knights of the West Wind, that is, you are not allowed to play Summon of the Seven Saints while on duty.

It has gained such a level of popularity just during the testing period, and Qin can already imagine the explosive scene when it is promoted.But no matter how you change it, card games are still card games after all, and the essence of board games cannot be changed.

But what does Xia Yu show him now?Although it is not known where Xia Yu found these monster character cards, it is quite terrifying just to have monsters in and out of the cards at will. The original game entertainment has suddenly risen to a level that requires the use of strategic power for defense.

Thinking of the scene where monsters might break out in Mondstadt at any time, Qin's expression became extremely serious. Waiting for all the gray dumplings on the ground to return to their card bags, Qin asked Xia Yu: "Xia Yu, can you tell me about your situation?" Where do these monster cards come from?”

"Oh, you are talking about them, they are the little monsters I raised in the Yingchen Song Pot. I don't know when they learned to match themselves with the character cards summoned by the Seven Saints after they recently returned from Xumi, and then That’s what it is now.”

After explaining, Xia Yu took out the card of the Floating Grass Mushroom Beast from the card bag. In the card, the little guy with the big umbrella cover was leisurely basking in the sun on the grass.

As if feeling Xia Yu's gaze on it, the little guy shook his little body. After feeling a little more awake, the little guy kicked hard with his short calves, and then successfully floated up.

The floating grass mushroom looked very happy as it raised its head to look at the card exit in the sky, and its two round eyes narrowed into thin slits.Swinging the big umbrella cap on his head and rubbing it upwards, the little guy who successfully came out of the card to the outside world floated to Xia Yu's shoulder and stopped.

It seems that because it has arrived in a new living environment, the floating grass mushroom beast turns its small body left and right to look at the surrounding scenery with curious eyes in its small eyes.

When he saw Qin, who had a sullen face and an extremely serious expression, the frightened little guy suddenly trembled slightly, and the round little feet standing on Xia Yu's shoulders also began to sway because they lost their center of gravity. stand up.

Under the tension, the floating grass mushroom, which had forgotten that it could still float, shook its small round feet in panic like a person falling from a high altitude, and then fell into the palm of Xia Yu's hand, who was already ready to catch it. .After raising his head and looking at Xia Yu again, the little guy finally understood what happened and showed a happy smile.

Looking at the series of cute actions of the Floating Grass Fungus, the serious look on Qin's face felt like the ice and snow of Mondstadt had been blown away by Barbatos and began to melt rapidly.

This little Xumi monster is so cute!Looking straight at the floating grass mushroom hugged by Xia Yu, Qin, who was in a daze, immediately closed his eyes and shook his head gently when he realized something was wrong with him. After adjusting his mood, Qin began to analyze. Understand the dangers of this monster card.

First of all, what Xia Yu said is that only he owns this kind of card. It should be true. What can support this point of view is that in the thousands of years of history, there has been no precedent of using cards to bring monsters into the city in Mondstadt. .

What's more, Mondstadt had just survived the Wind Dragon Tvarin disaster not long ago. Assuming that the Abyss Order could use this power, without knowing it, the city of Mondstadt, which lacked defense power, might have really fallen into a sea of ​​fire.Then Tevalin's problem will have to be left to the fools, and history may develop in a tragic direction.

In this case, I only have to think about Xia Yu and the little monsters he raised. I was lucky enough to go to Ying's Chensong Pot once. At least the little monsters around Xia Yu have quite docile personalities. Wait... Qin, who was thinking, vaguely noticed Something is wrong, but I can't quite figure out what the problem is.

By the way, I only saw these cute little guys, what about the monsters that were originally defined as dangerous?Xia Yu seems to have raised them too. Will those monsters hurt people when summoned through cards?Relying on her past memories, Qin quickly locked onto a dangerous monster she knew.

If I remember correctly, Xia Yu seemed to have received a frozen tree seed, but he didn't confirm it later due to work reasons.Now that so much time has passed, the frozen tree seedling must have grown up.

"Xia Yu, can you let me see what the Frozen Tree card looks like when it's summoned?" Qin asked Xia Yu and became more vigilant when she saw the troubled expression on Xia Yu's face.

Could it be that I really guessed it right?

"Well... I really don't have Frozen Tree Xiaoqi's card." Xia Yu scratched his head in embarrassment as he answered.

Keli has been playing with Xiao Dulin and Xiao Qi for such a long time. Could it be that Keli has not mentioned to Qin that Xiao Qi is actually the Little Frozen Tree?If I remember correctly, when Qin brought Keli to her home for dinner in the morning, Xiao Qi should have been there as well.

Has this been forgotten?Thinking about why this situation occurred, Xia Yu thought about it carefully for a while and roughly understood the reason.

Maybe it's because the characteristics of the monster on Xiao Qi's body are too unclear. Compared with the pair of small black wings on Xiao Dulin's back and the chubby and eye-catching dragon tail, Xiao Qi only has a few plant vines wrapped around his legs. , if you don’t look carefully, it is extremely easy to be regarded as a decoration on clothing.

In addition, there are two flexible canes on the back near the shoulder blades. But under normal circumstances, the little guy has put away these two canes that were originally used for fighting. It is not that simple to find out. their existence.

In addition, there is a blue core decorated with the eye of god hanging on the waist, so does Qin recognize Xiaoqi as a human with the eye of god... Considering Qin's straightforward and serious character, Xia Yu He said, "Actually, Qin, you have also seen the little frozen tree. She is the little girl dressed in Liyue's clothes who often plays with Keli and little Dulin."

"Because they don't know where they are going to play today, and I haven't seen them yet, so I haven't checked with them about the cards yet."

???

Xia Yu answered the question frankly, which caused Qin's brain to shut down. Finally, Qin couldn't maintain the seriousness on his face and turned into a blank expression. The acting leader, who opened his mouth several times to say something, was ashamed. Emotional face a little red.

He didn't even recognize that the little girl was the frozen tree!It’s such a dereliction of duty!

"Actually, if you really want to talk about the level of destructive power, there are higher levels, but you should also know or have heard of those card harps, that's all." Xia Yu, who wanted to alleviate this embarrassment, sent Tevarin and Ruotuo The Dragon King and Thunder General's Seven Saint summoning cards were taken out.

"I don't think I need to introduce Tevalin. As a Mondstadt, you should know it better than me. As for these two, one is the main force of the Dragon King Ruoduo who fought with Emperor Liyueyan during the Demon God War, and the other One is the god of rice wife."

"Actually, I don't think you need to worry too much, Qin. I have confirmed with Tevalin and Ruoduo Dragon King. They said that these cards are unique, or in other words, only I should have them." Xia Yu explained carefully. Naturally, I understand what Qin, as the acting leader, is worried about. "So, the card game called Seven Saints Summons must be safe."

Is that so?After listening to Xia Yu's explanation, Qin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.In this way, I can continue to work with peace of mind... No!After seeing so many exclusive cards, I always feel like there is a stone blocked in my heart. Even the self-disciplined self cannot bear the uncomfortable feeling.

By the way, the reason for this emotion seems to be called Shaika by the members of the Knights.

Since the Summons of the Seven Saints is still in the testing phase in Mondstadt, even if foreign tourists come to Mondstadt and want to play the Summons of the Seven Saints, they can only go to the Cat Tail Tavern as the designated location. The support cards sent from that side are now in short supply.

Therefore, there are often situations where you have some useful cards but I don’t, and these rare cards often become the key to winning or losing.At this time, the winner who proudly displays those key cards will make the loser grit his teeth and want to rush forward and turn into a real battle.

The key thing is that during this period, the Knights have actually handled many such cases, including members who were originally affiliated with the West Wind Knights...

So is this the inner restlessness caused by being exposed?Even with the constraints of being a noble, this inexplicable feeling of heart-stopping hatred is still a bit difficult for me.

According to Kaia, at this time, you should go all out to summon the Seven Saints with the opponent. Only defeating the opponent under such circumstances is the most fulfilling.

According to Xia Yu, he had just returned to Mondstadt not long ago, and he was also new to the card game Summon of the Seven Saints. In this case, he should only have character cards and no support cards. If he follows the monster rules, can he win against him?

No matter how powerful the character cards in Xia Yu's hands are, as one of the first Mondstadt members to receive character cards, a full set of support cards, and character-specific skills, he should be able to win by linking all the cards.

Sorry Xia Yu, in order to calm down and continue to work efficiently in the afternoon, I have to defeat you here once...

"Xia Yu, if possible, can you let me see the full power of these three cards?" Qin, who felt slightly guilty, launched a challenge to Xia Yu. "According to the monster rules, even if you only have character cards, you can have a duel with the Summons of the Seven Saints. As for the location, I chose the private room of the Cat Tail Tavern..."

"Well... maybe we have to go to the wild." Xia Yu, who interrupted Qin's speech, pointed to the large plains on the outskirts. "If I go all out with these three cards... there will be a lot of movement."

Yes, Xia Yu's three exclusive cards are all related to gods, so it must not be that simple.Qin, who felt like she was being careless, nodded.

"Okay, then let's find a venue as Xia Yu said."

————————————————————————

"Phew, I finally got those bad boys who borrowed books and forgot to return them."

After returning to the headquarters of the Knights of the West Wind, Lisa stretched greatly, opened the door to the library and temporarily placed the books on the table. Lisa, who planned to report to Qin first, turned back to the hall.

After all, I caught several members of the treasure thief group this time. No matter how much I like a leisurely life, as a member of the knights, I still have to complete the work that needs to be done.Hearing the soft noise coming from the solitary room next door, Lisa's lips began to curl up involuntarily.

It seems that Keli was put into the solitary room again. It should be related to the sky blue pier at the city gate.But who has the technology to perfectly fuse crystal mines with stones?

You should be able to understand after you ask Qin after seeing Qin... He knocked gently on the door and pushed open the door of the team leader's office. He looked at Kaia who was sitting at the desk and was very busy. Lisa's face There was a puzzled expression on his face.

Where's Qin?Could it be that there was some serious situation that forced her, as the acting team leader, to take action?Feeling that the situation was a little bad, Lisa immediately adjusted from her lazy state.

Although he had helped Qin handle official duties in the past, what he was more concerned about now was what emergency happened that caused Qin to leave the office.

"Kaia, where did Qin go? Was there an emergency?" Lisa, who asked Kaia, came to the desk and looked at her friend who hesitated for a moment and raised her head because she spoke. With the helpless expression on her face, Lisa became even more anxious.

"Kaia, what exactly is this..."

"Well... don't worry, it's not a serious situation." Kaia, who soothed Lisa's emotions, pointed to the corner of the bookcase. "As for Jean, she's right there."

ah?Lisa followed Kaiya's direction and looked over, and the sight that came into her eyes made Lisa's eyes widen.Qin, who was sitting in the corner between the wall and the bookcase, had been hit by something unknown, and her whole body exuded a feeling of decadence.

This... After walking a little further, Qin's dejected state was fully revealed in Lisa's eyes: Qin's forehead was buried in her lowered forehead with both hands, her eyes were empty and lifeless, her face was filled with a lonely look, and her mouth was full of expressions. Qin kept mumbling something in a low voice, which made Lisa get closer because of worry...

"This is not a summons from the Seven Saints at all, this is not a duel at all..." Qin kept repeating, which Lisa couldn't understand at all.

How can it be! ?What made Qin become like this was the card game Summon of the Seven Saints that she had just come to Mondstadt?
