The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

"Oh? Can you eat barbecue with raw meat in the middle?" The discussion between the musketeer and Xia Yu aroused Dadalia's interest. "Brother Xia Yu, which one do you recommend more, the fully cooked barbecue or the slightly undercooked one?" Dadalia's words suddenly made the two musketeers' hearts lift to their throats again, thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump The beating sound was even more obvious than when it collapsed on the ground like a dead dog after training.

Wouldn’t the preventive work just now be in vain?Their eyes instantly focused on Xia Yu's face. The musketeers who were observing carefully saw their hearts beat slightly slower when they saw Xia Yu's slightly raised corners of his mouth.

It’s over!Something big happened!My lord, he fell into a trap!

“Actually, it’s not completely raw. Pure raw meat is not easy to be digested and absorbed by the human body. It’s just because the skin shrinks faster when grilling meat, so the juice squeezed into the inner layer will make the middle part of the grill smaller than Roasting is more like boiling, and the hemoglobin in the meat mixed with the gravy will leave a bit of blood-like juice."

Seeing Dadalia's expression of not understanding, Xia Yu thought for a while and suggested to Dadalia: "How about I prepare some of each so that I can tell them apart when I eat them?"

"Of course it's no problem!" Dadalia smiled in a happy mood. The moment Dadalia nodded in agreement, the mood of the two musketeers suddenly fell to the bottom.

Inverted!Now it's all the other way around!

what to do?Now let alone the two of them helping Mr. Young Master test poison, Mr. Young Master became the guinea pig who tried these barbecued meats!

The advance team of Fools has to do something right. This is also the most important reason why everyone can safely entrust their backs to their comrades on the battlefield.In other words, people who always change their minds and hesitate cannot join the vanguard of fools.

Even if it’s just a matter of doneness of the roast.

If he changes his mind at this time, he will definitely attract the attention of the young master, and when he returns to the office in Liyue Port, he will be thrown into the devil's training on the grounds of weak mind.But...

For the sake of your lord, isn't it just devil training?What does it mean to die for a leader who can lead the charge!One of them clenched his fists with determination, and then turned his attention to Xia Yu, who started to turn the wooden sticks.

"Mr. Xia Yu, can you give me a bunch to try?" The Fool Musketeers said, attracting Xia Yu's attention.However, since it was the critical moment to flip the barbecue, Xia Yu, whose eyes stayed on the barbecue, just nodded, and could not see the expressions of the musketeers of the advance team of Fools who were willing to die generously.

"In terms of maturity...just make it to the maximum acceptable level for people who are used to eating fully cooked food!"

————————————————————————

The fat and thin barbecue has begun to make a beeping sound due to the high temperature of the campfire, and the golden sweet flower honey sauce hanging on the surface has also begun to gradually turn to light brown.Looking at the roasted wild boar meat that was as beautiful as the finest amber, the musketeer who offered to 'test the poison' suddenly realized that his righteous act of 'going to death' didn't seem to be a big loss.

"Okay, this is roasted tenderloin that's about eighty-ripe." Xia Yu smiled as he handed the skewers to the Musketeers of Fools who wanted to have the courage to try.

I didn't expect that the spiritual training carried out by Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun could bring so many benefits in cooking. When I was cooking seriously, my concentration level improved by more than one level!The cooking process has also become more comfortable.

"You can eat it with confidence. Although it is said to be medium-rare, the inside of the barbecue is actually already cooked. When you bite into it, it will burst and release the gravy. It will definitely give you a different flavor from the fully cooked dry barbecue." Introducing the barbecue. Xia Yu's confident look made the Musketeers who were observing the barbecue a little shaken.

smell good!Why do you just grill the meat like usual and sprinkle one or two wild onions on it? The aroma of the pork will become so pure and attractive.Is this the strength of a professional chef and spy?I know clearly that this food may be poisonous, but my body seems to be driving me to put the meat into my mouth faster...

Such an opponent is really terrifying!

Realizing that Xia Yu was checking the maturity of the barbecue again and was about to hand the newly baked barbecue to Dadalia, the Musketeer, who had no time to think about it, grabbed the bottom piece of the wooden skewer and shaved his mouth. The whole skewer of roasted tenderloin suddenly When your mouth is full.

call!call!So hot!How can you taste the barbecue just taken off the grill in this way?What's more, in order to ensure that the three people's hometown taste is suitable for the winter country, Xia Yu specially selected a sauce mixed with sweet flower honey as the coating for the outer layer of the barbecue.As a result, the honey juice that filled his entire mouth instantly made the tragic musketeer blush.

Can't spit it out!The second skewer of barbecue was handed directly to the young master!Even if you are burned, you still have to taste the abnormality hidden in this dish... Take a big bite and break through the slightly sticky surface mixed with the aroma of sauce and sweetness. The fragrant barbecue is like the broken rhinestones. , the juice gushing out immediately filled the entire mouth.

It's so delicious... No!I came here to taste the murderous intent hidden under this delicious food, how could I be tempted by this mere barbecue?The Fool Musketeers calmed down and carefully distinguished the subtle taste on their tongues:

Sweet flower honey, which is abundant in various countries, is added with what seems to be a bean paste type sauce. The overall taste can taste the sweetness of flowers and the aroma of fermented soybeans. This should be soybean paste.

What’s more, there is the juice in the barbecue. The original deliciousness of the wild boar butchered on site is completely concentrated into the juice. A little bit of black pepper and salt plus the aroma of chopped green onion bring it out and mix it. The sauce that coats the skin...

wrong!Didn’t you come here to taste and test the poison?What on earth did you taste! ?Looking at Dadalia, who had already begun to eat meat skewers, the Musketeer, who felt that he had been completely led astray, was a little doubtful about life.

Is this poison colorless and odorless?But judging from the knowledge they have learned, there is no such type of poison, or is it really that the two of them made a wrong judgment?

From this point of view, not only is there no loss... but there is even a small profit. If you worry too much, it will really be a bloody profit!

————————————————————————

"Hey, how are you feeling over there?"

"It's okay, how about you?"

"It's not abnormal...are we really thinking too much?"

After having a delicious meal of barbecue, they set off on the road again. The two people walking at the end of the line, whispering to each other, felt puzzled.

Nearly two hours have passed since lunch time. Near Lingju Pass, the mess of the secret factory left by the doctor has appeared in the field of vision. However, apart from savoring the wonderful smell of barbecue, I didn't feel it at all along the way. Any toxic conditions.Could it be that the important role that the young master mentioned to him was really to make lunch?

After removing the stones and vines used to hide the intersection, he entered the path, passed through the slender slit, and followed the young master in circles for a short distance, when he saw the huge building in the open space on the inside of the cliff. Xia Yu couldn't help but be amazed.

I didn't expect that there would be a factory like a steel fortress in a place like this!The steel building full of punk style is completely different from the stone ruins outside the mountain gap. Compared with the ancient Liyue Port, this steel building full of rough style makes Xia Yu feel as if technology has leapt forward for hundreds of years. .

"Here we are. This is the factory that the doctor used to study the ruins guards." Pressing the button opened the thick metal door, and Dadalia's eyes became much more serious. "Doctor, he collected and stored many ruin guards here. After his research failed, he abandoned this research institute, so I can't tell what kind of situation we will encounter next. So be careful."

"I understand." Following Dadalia, we stepped into the factory filled with furnaces and gears. The dilapidated buildings were filled with a sense of dilapidation and desolation. Despite this, the assembly lines transporting the ruins guards were still running. With.Fortunately, it seems that because it did not cause much movement, the ruin guards on the assembly line are all on standby.

Compared with the relic hunter I harvested, the six-meter-high relic guard imitating the humanoid design does not adopt a suspended design, but uses a structure similar to human feet, and its surface texture is much better than that of the relic hunter. Much worse.

It seems that this ruin guard that was produced at an unknown time should be the first generation product of this so-called self-discipline mechanism. After making a comparative judgment, Xia Yu couldn't help but feel for this self-discipline machine that seemed to be at least hundreds of years older than Mondstadt and Liyue technology. Marvel.

"I'll leave it to you, brother Xia Yu." Dadalia, whose eyes were fixed on Xia Yu, seemed a little embarrassed.After hesitating for a few seconds, Dadalia finally made up his mind and said: "If possible...can we remove all the aggressiveness of these ruins guards?"

ha! ? ?

Although I heard Dadalia say that the reason why he needs the ruins guard is for his youngest brother Tok, but... is this too much?Although he really wanted to ask this question, considering that Dadalia had mentioned this matter, he had to keep it secret from his subordinates. Xia Yu, who raised his eyebrows, found that he had attracted Dadalia's attention and pointed at He picked up the two Fool Musketeers who were following behind them.

I see!Dadalia, who understood immediately, quietly gave Xia Yu a thumbs up, turned around and came to the two of them, Dadalia ordered: "Next, you two are responsible for guarding the entrance. This person and I will An important guest has information that he doesn’t want anyone to know and needs to be discussed, do you understand?”

"Yes! Sir!" The two musketeers who saluted Dadalia finally seemed to understand. With proud expressions, they stood guard at the door of the steel factory, looking at each other. He couldn't help but show admiration.

"I just said what's going on, it turns out that this chef is actually one of ours, so today's situation will all make sense."

"Yes, the spies who can sneak into Qixing's men must have a lot of important information. It is really dangerous to talk in Liyue Port. Master Gongzi hired him as a traveling chef in Liyue Port with great fanfare. Naturally, it will not arouse too many people's suspicions. As long as We can ensure that no informants from Liyue Port follow us, and we can ensure that the master's plan is foolproof..."

Really wise!

Chapter 96 New Uses of Ruin Guards

Not to mention the two musketeers who were still praising Dadalia outside the factory gate. Inside the factory, the ruin guards that had been adjusted due to needs were upgraded from one to ten by Dadalia, waiting for Dadalia. After giving the explanation, Xia Yu found that the other party's expression had become much more serious.

"Maybe it's because Brother Xia Yu, you haven't seen the destructive power of these ruin guards." Dadalia's tone seemed a little heavy. He raised his head and looked up at the ceiling. Dadalia, who had been silent for a while, slowly explained: " This is a very dangerous and destructive self-regulatory mechanism.”

"For those who have the Eye of God, it takes some effort to get rid of the ruins guards. Not to mention ordinary people who don't have the Eye of God... I don't know which era this kind of product was produced from. If the product encounters the advance team of the Fools, even a group of four or five veterans of the Fools' advance team will have to pay a heavy price if they want to defeat an activated ruins guard."

what! ?

Because we had seen how powerful the perfectly coordinated Fools Advance Team was in Mondstadt, the Abyss Mage who almost killed himself was defeated by the perfectly coordinated Fools Advance Team in three strikes, five divided by two. The whole process takes less than 30 seconds.

Even with such a perfectly coordinated team, would it be difficult to deal with the ruins guards? Xia Yu, who realized the strength of the ruins guards for the first time, clicked his tongue. "Didn't you say that they have clear weaknesses, Kodadalia? As long as we attack their weaknesses and paralyze them, we should be able to reduce the losses, right?"

"That's right..." Dadalia, who answered Xia Yu, checked a ruins guard that was on standby. The large robot that had not been activated sat quietly on the floor, seemingly inactive. sign.Having ensured safety, Dadalia waved to Xia Yu, and then said: "Try this first. If you can call out the weapon equipped on it, you should understand."

Ruin guard equipment?Climbing up the steps to the ruins guard, Xia Yu put his right hand on the ruins guard's head, imitating the process of subduing the ruins hunters.

Dark red light lit up from the cross-shaped eyes of the ruins guard. It seemed that the ruins guard was about to stand up and made an unknown sound under Dadalia's nervous look. "Start...program error, start formatting process..." The orange-red eyes of the ruins guard sitting on the ground flickered for a while before finally returning to normal.

"Certification completed, model ruin guard VB0-2, please give the order."

This... Looking at the ruins guard who was waiting quietly after standing up, Dadalia fell into petrification.

Although I had previously imagined how complex transformation methods Xia Yu would have to carry out to adjust the series of ruins self-discipline mechanisms that even the doctors could not crack, in order to prevent resistance during the adjustment process and activate other ruins guards in the factory, Dada Leah has even made plans to use the Evil Eye again to activate the Demon King's weapons.

But now?Xia Yu only touched it once, and the ruin guard became obedient after being activated.The extremely simple taming method made Dadalia even feel a little distressed for the 300 million Mora he paid.

"Is this...is it done?" Dadalia asked Xia Yu and slapped her forehead when she saw Xia Yu nodded.

Could it be that this is what is called one thing descending from another?

Compared to Dadalia, who began to doubt himself, Xia Yu began to be curious about the weapons equipped on this ruins guard.It can cause heavy losses to the advance team of Fools who cooperated skillfully. What kind of weapons is equipped on this ruins guard?

Because of his experience in operating relic hunters, Xia Yu skillfully asked the relic guards to report the weapons and equipment they carried. Compared with the relic hunters who have a rich arsenal of weapons, the relic guards' equipment is much simpler.

Two 'heavy hammer' type mechanical arms. Due to structural differences with the Relic Hunter, the Relic Hunter's arms are similar to meteor hammer chains. They can easily swing their arms to attack the enemy under the power supply of the core. In cooperation, The flexible and fully rotatable bearing design at the upper waist allows the rotating ruins guard to attack the surroundings indiscriminately like a rotating meteor hammer.

Although the structure of its feet does not allow it to move as quickly as the Ruin Hunter, due to this series of designs, the Ruin Guard's flexibility is definitely not that bad.

Furthermore, this should be the main reason why the advance team was in a difficult battle mentioned by Dadalia: small heat-seeking missile launcher x6

Seeing this set of data, Xia Yu rubbed his eyes in surprise. After confirming the existence of this equipment again and again, Xia Yu, who felt that his mind was blank, began to doubt his life.

From the current point of view, the continent of Teyvat is a different world where high-level combat power is dominated by swords and magic. Whether it is combat skills or magic, the use of elemental power is the mainstream of this world.

But now?Even if placed in the original world, this heat-seeking missile is definitely an advanced military technology. Putting it in this world of swords and magic is indeed too dimensionally reducing for ordinary people.

Looking at the weapons and equipment modules of the ruins guards, Xia Yu was a little confused.If this is a relic hunter, then it can be rendered harmless by dismantling all its weapons. However, this relic guard is somewhat different. The three sets of heat-seeking missile launchers arranged on the body make Abedo It shouldn't be difficult to modify if you get started, but what about these two robotic arms?

It is impossible to disassemble its arms, which would affect the appearance too much.Just when Xia Yu was worried about how to deal with the pair of mechanical arms, another set of words caught Xia Yu's attention:

Attack command module.

Wait...isn't this similar to the existence of a program running in a computer?

All the weapon structures of the Relic Guard are equivalent to computer-configured equipment, and each module is equivalent to its running program. As long as the attack command module is deleted, and all the heat-seeking missiles are disassembled, this Relic The guard should be a harmless robot.

After discovering that Dadalia's expression finally relaxed, Xia Yu asked Dadalia: "Mr. Dadalia, the ruins guard you want to give to your brother Tok is to completely delete all means of attack. What?"

"Yes, Tok is still young. For his safety, I think it is more appropriate to dismantle all the weapons." Dadalia, who nodded in agreement, was inexplicably looking forward to it, looking at Xia Yu who looked confident. , Dadalia then said: "Brother Xia Yu, what plan do you have?"

"That's right, I can completely render the ruin guards harmless. As long as I'm not too stupid to be stepped on by it or pressed down by it when it smashes down, I can cancel all the attack methods of these ruin guards. As for the back of the body, These six launchers...what do you think of the launch tubes modified into fireworks without ruining the overall appearance?"

Xia Yu had already had this idea when he saw the six not too big cylindrical launchers on the back of the ruins guard. According to the ruins guard's report, a ruins guard can store 36 micro-thermal weapons in its body. Tracking missiles, considering that the principle of ignition launch is basically similar to the fireworks I saw in Liyue Port, this should also be a good idea.

"As long as it is not equipped with fireworks on weekdays, this ruin guard will not be in any danger. During festivals, you can buy or make your own fireworks of the right size for setting off. Such fireworks cannons are more expensive than ordinary ones. It’s much cooler, and besides, if your brother Tok asks about the purpose of these six launch holes, it will be easier to explain, isn’t it?”

"Okay, let's do it like this!" Dadalia immediately decided on the plan after listening to Xia Yu's explanation. "As for the other Jiutai ruins guards, I want to buy them in my own name. Of course, they are still completely disarmed. The price is still the same as before, how about it?"

ha?

Dadalia's sudden allocation of a large amount of money was somewhat beyond Xia Yu's expectations.

Although he had previously prevented the other party from trying to crack the ruins guard and throw it into the war, now after careful study, Xia Yu found that this hidden danger could actually be eliminated.

It is only necessary to delete all the data of the ruin guard's attack module. Even if researchers from Solstice Kingdom can crack the access panel, it is impossible to restore the missing data without knowing how to compile it.

"Mr. Dadalia, I must remind you that deleted attack modules cannot be restored. If you want to study these ruin guards, I personally suggest that it is better to give up."

Xia Yu, who reminded Dadalia, looked at the other party with a smile and didn't seem to care too much about it.Dadalia, who waved his hand to deny it, explained: "Of course not. I plan to use these six ruins guards for my own use, and the rest will be used as an apology to Liyue Fang."

"I believe you should know, Mr. Xia Yu, that because of the Ossel incident, the relationship between the fools of Zhidong Kingdom and the ordinary people of Liyue has dropped to a freezing point. Although the top management of Seven Stars can solve the problem through compensation, for the sake of To improve the reputation of Winter Kingdom among the common people, I plan to donate these three ruins guards."

Donate the ruins guards to Liyue Port?After thinking for a while, Xia Yu immediately understood what Dadalia was thinking.This is indeed a strange move and a wonderful one.

As the largest port city, what is Liyue Port most economically developed and proud of?Naturally, it is its trade circulation capacity and port throughput.

But this era is different from my original world. The shipment of goods and the construction of ships are all done manually.Pure manual handling does not pose a big problem when transporting small and medium-sized goods. However, when it comes to large items, the weight becomes the biggest obstacle to manual transportation.

At this time, the ruin guard, whose strength and load-bearing capacity are much higher than that of ordinary people, can come in handy. Due to the unique arm structure of the ruin guard, its flexibility is not inferior to that of humans. Isn't this equivalent to Is it the mechanized equipment of the original world?

The grand return to Liyue Port with the ten ruins guards is bound to temporarily cause panic among the people, but there is an old saying that curiosity killed the cat. The more dangerous something is, the more likely it is to attract people's attention and discussion.

By then, everyone in Liyue Port will know that the executive officers of the Fools of the Solstice Kingdom donated three big machines to the officials of Liyue Port. After these relic hunters are active in the port, the first to benefit are the dock workers. They will naturally promote their benefits in Liyue Port.By the time of the introduction, Zhidong Kingdom's reputation among the people in Liyue Port would naturally be restored.

"Are you planning to give these three ruins guards to the General Affairs Department working at the Liyue Wharf Warehouse?"

"Yes, it's convenient to talk to smart people." Dadalia looked at Xia Yu with eyes filled with admiration.

"At the same time, I feel that this one-time investment is worth it. The labor wages in Liyue Port are several times that of other countries. The price of 300 million molas for a ruin guard seems very expensive, but in fact it is only [-] per worker." Month's salary." Dadalia looked extremely helpless when he mentioned this.

"Liyue is the largest mineral mining area in Teyvat. A large amount of ore is purchased and transported back to the Winter Kingdom every day. Although the recruits can be used to help carry the goods, they are still soldiers after all. There is no way that their training time will be delayed by moving things. Therefore, these six ruins guards will be put to use immediately."

"In addition, I still know a little bit about how to use the equipment in this factory. The mechanical equipment needs to be maintained after a certain period of time. In that time, I can turn this factory from covert to open to a maintenance factory. , and by the way, we can also get some Mora back from the hands of Liyue Qixing." Dadalia, who was obviously still a little unconvinced, made Xia Yu laugh out loud.

"No problem, I'll go to one station and handle it right away."

————————————————————————

"Hey, tell me, the young master and the chef have been in there for nearly half an hour, right? What on earth are they doing?"

"I think it's not that simple. Even the doctor can't handle the ruin guard..."

Outside the gate of the hidden factory, after confirming that none of Liyue's spies were following him and the others, the two musketeers began to chat, and the content of their conversation naturally focused on the factory.Just as the two were about to continue talking, the rumble from the steel gate caught their attention.

Is it finally over?The two musketeers who turned around widened their eyes in surprise when they saw the scene that impressed them: Behind Dadalia and Xia Yu who walked out of the factory, ten relic guards with a strong sense of oppression followed them. People walked out of the factory.

This... the ruins guard is under control! ?As expected of the young master!This is too awesome!

correct!There is also this tall man who is apparently a chef. It is absolutely inseparable from him that the ruins guards can obey the orders. This is something that even the doctor cannot do!

The brains of the two musketeers were running rapidly again. Although he did not exist among the twelve executive officers, it was just like the common sense that the Four Heavenly Kings always had five people. Would there be any one among the twelve executive officers of the Fools? Could there be such a thirteen seats hidden?

It seems that for the sake of my own life, I must keep this matter a secret after I return home!

Chapter 97 Ying: I didn’t notice the changes in Liyue Port for a day...

Osel's attack did not disrupt the normal pace of life of the people in Liyue Port. Under the orderly governance of Liyue Qixing, although everyone was still saddened by the departure of Emperor Yan Wang, it did not cause too much panic.

But this kind of time and process made Ying a little distressed as she wanted to find clues about her brother. Although the missing person notice had been posted on the notice board with the help of Liyue Qixing, according to the rules at that time in Mondstadt City, Experience shows that this search in Liyue Port will probably yield nothing.

There was also news related to Emperor Yan Wang. When he saw the heart of God, Ying had already understood that Zhongli was the incarnation of Morax in the human world.But if you want to ask the Rock King Emperor for information about the Heavenly Law Maintainer, Sky Island and the Heart of God, you have to postpone it for a while. As for the reason...

Zhongli is in jail!
