Genshin Impact, me and my great cause

When she does business, her partners must not be evil and must be ethical.Chu

The brothers around him suddenly understood and made way for this thorny rose to leave.

The young Beidou is not the uncrowned Dragon King who later took it easy and rarely fought with others. During this period, she was like Disiya, who was full of energy and had nowhere to vent, looking for fights everywhere in an attempt to increase her strength and make a name for herself. Come.

"Hey!"

She greeted the desert people who were transporting the fleet's cargo at the dock very familiarly.

……

……

"Really energetic."

By the spring pool of golden date palm, Du Ruo looked away.

He is very busy.

He is swaying the fragments of Zhenling's power to replenish the energy of the golden date palm to maintain the oasis for the guests' next supplies.

As he studied and deepened his understanding of the 'Word Spirit', he became more and more efficient in using this magic. Just like consuming knowledge to create a dream space, deepening his understanding of matter helped to increase the consumption of spiritual power and change environmental capabilities.

Of course, this is not enough. Constantly consuming the spiritual energy to maintain it is not a long-term solution. The more troublesome and trivial seawater desalination plant should also be put on the agenda. Du Ruo has almost come up with some solutions.

After more than half of his mental power was consumed, he stopped driving the calming power. Du Ruo closed his eyes and meditated to recover efficiently.

The technique he calls "returning life" means that only after wearing the Void Terminal can one go back to his original roots and return to the right path of spiritual and spiritual practice.

However, a large amount of complementary knowledge about the human body has made Du Ruo's "various enhancements" that were general and rough in the past more precise and refined, and the corresponding life-returning skills have also improved.

Meditation training, at first glance, emphasizes oneself, but in fact it is not, but the induction between external objects and the World Tree. It is to release the spirit and soul along the established connection, thereby connecting to the World Tree through induction, and obtaining knowledge from it. .

Simply put, let the spirit and spirit emanate from within.

"Return to Life" is just the opposite. Whether it is feeling the limbs, internal organs, or even the hair on the surface of the skin, and ultimately controlling them, it emphasizes immersing the spirit and soul within the body, from the outside in. Develop your own potential.

Du Ruo was busy with both hands. He had no need for the meditation training of scholars with the ultimate goal of connecting to the World Tree, but he was quite interested in the techniques of connecting the spirit and psychology to external objects.

At the same time, choosing to immerse your heart, mind, and spirit in your body will also be of great use to him.

Thoughts flowed like a fountain, brushing away the distracting thoughts on the surface.

When he opened his eyes again, a lot of the consumed mental energy had been restored.Mental power is Du Ruo's own concept of quantifying his own mental strength. When a scholar connects to the void terminal, people who consume too much intellectual energy will become tired, but it is not the mental energy that is consumed, but intellectual energy. It is also the brain and soul that are tired.

Mental energy consumption is a kind of fine quantification, and its essence is still the category of body, soul, and physical strength consumption.

After recovering, it was time to start desalinating seawater. In this regard, Snake was still useless for anything other than giving guidance. Of course, she could cultivate specific biological materials and then filter the seawater to achieve purification.

But the forbidden knowledge infected her power. Doing so would only pollute the seemingly purified water, which would be more harmful to ordinary people than water full of water elemental power.

Therefore, Du Ruo could only use a stupid method, using a biological transformation technology obtained from the void, to attack some cuties.

That’s right, it’s slimes and mushrooms!

Needless to say about the former, as long as the concentration of elemental power meets the requirements, various slimes may be born. The sea is naturally a paradise for water slimes, which is enough to build a slime workshop and collect airship materials.

As for the latter, mushrooms were originally a biological achievement for the purpose of "medical use". They were originally born when the creators tried to use some properties of spores to save lives and heal the wounded.

Then, spore organisms with certain intelligence also have strong ability to adapt to the environment.

Keep growing, keep evolving.

Since then, this research has become a well-known experimental accident in Sumeru.

Even the elemental beings of the Grass Dragon favor these little cuties, integrating into the mushroom tribe to accumulate memory and strength. Their environmental adaptability and communication ability are really good.

Du Ruo plans to select some of them, namely the water mushroom beasts, and cultivate them under the guidance of Snake.The water mushrooms themselves can be used as a source of water or even food in emergencies, and the element-rich water they purify from water slimes is not unbearable like ordinary people. On the contrary, it is suitable for their further evolution.

After such a biological chain, even if the ultimately purified seawater is still not suitable for ordinary people to drink, domestic water will always be fine.

More importantly, the environment around the golden date palm can be improved to a considerable extent. In such a saline-alkali land, there is no way to change the situation, so we can only deal with it slowly.

Holding the spores, Du Ruo thought so.

Just as he was about to start cultivating, a loud thunder-like sound suddenly appeared. At the same time, it seemed like an earthquake all around him, and the solid spring pools trembled.

"boom!"

The violent impact and whistling sound brought about something highly explosive.

The other people who were alerted, as well as the people in the Southern Cross Caravan, suddenly looked around and found that Du Ruo's original location had been covered in smoke and dust. It was the smoke after the alchemical shell exploded.

The entire area there was enveloped by explosions and impacts.

On the edge of the golden date palm, lurking in the date palm forest, there was a man standing in front of a cannon with high spirits. He put his hands on his hips and laughed wildly: "What king of sand and sea, crawl and tremble in front of my special cannon!"

"There are assassins!"

Only then did people realize what was happening. Compared with the assassins who were armed with weapons or even Erling weapons in the past, this one could be described as high-tech.

He brought out all the cannons used for mining.

"Your Majesty," a desert man looked at the smoke-filled place in disbelief, "Your Majesty has been assassinated!"

Beidou opened his eyes wide, she was still investigating, and she died?

Qixing won’t blame himself!

Before she could finish her complicated thoughts, there was another loud noise.

"boom!"

Come back, could the assassin be whipping the corpse? !

Some desert people were filled with indignation. As soon as they took two steps, ready to step forward to rescue them, they saw something flying out of the ruins, knocking the cannon away from the gunner who was still laughing.

The detonated alchemy shell sent him directly into the sky, showing a dark outline and spreading in all directions.

"what is that?"

Everything happened so fast, whether it was an assassination or the assassin died suddenly.

Then, everything suddenly dissipated, and all the smoke and dust surrounding Du Ruo seemed to have been crushed by invisible hands, suppressing them all on the ground, revealing his unscathed and neat appearance.

"Life is really fragile. I didn't want to kill you. Being able to deploy such a powerful alchemical cannonball and hit it so accurately is a talent."

It just doesn't have enough penetration.

It scared Du Ruo more than hurting him.

'How did he hide himself?Haven't been discovered so recently? '

Du Ruo thought for a while,

'It must be the work of fools. '

In the Sand Sea, whenever something bad happens, you can directly infer that the bad thing is caused by either the Teaching Council or the Fools.

The former shouldn't be so rough.

Chapter 1: The Teaching Council: It must have been done by fools

Are there many fools in the golden date palm?

of course!

Is there any force that has not been planted with spies by fools?

They laid out the plan 500 years ago and began to work tirelessly to arrange all this. Now there are too many fruitful results, even in the sand sea, even in the emerging golden date palm.

Never expect anything from fools. If you think they are going to do something bad, they have done it.

The banquet to welcome the Southern Cross fleet continued. Du Ruo repaired the damaged pool. As if nothing had happened, he calmly walked towards the crowd and invited a guest to board his Whale King.

The guest was beautiful and looked very desert-like, dressed in the typical attire of a Gilded Brigade girl.

Therefore, Du Ruo's invitation was like the time when Mondstadt deposed the aristocracy and found a girl to go home and have fun at every Wind and Flower Festival. It was full of evil intentions.

But she came anyway and couldn't refuse. No one around her spoke up, but she was like avoiding snakes and scorpions.

After all, Du Ruo invited her like this - "Assassin's accomplice, please come with me."

The Whale King has a larger space and almost never touches the ground. Every day, it condenses into water in the high sky, turning into the raw material for Du Ruo's clouds and rain.

At the same time, it also turned into an oasis under the influence of the power emitted by Zhenling.

At first it was a cabin, and later the deck became like a hanging garden, covered with green plants.

What the girl invited at this time saw was the botanical garden scenery that looked very precious in the sand sea. It was known that Du Ruo did not like to build palaces, nor did he like to decorate ancient ruins dungeons, so the airship could be regarded as his palace.

In a spacious room, the girl was entertained. The round table in front of her was filled with delicacies special to Shahai, but she was not in the mood to eat.

Du Ruo, who was sitting in the chair, smiled and raised his glass: "In this vast sea of ​​sand and sky, it is fate that we can meet. Let's drink to this rare fate."

After he finished speaking, he drank the milk tea in one gulp.

"..."

So why milk tea?

Seeing that the guest did not move, Du Ruo was surprised: "Don't you want to drink? You should be more confident."

"Living in this world, everyone will understand sooner or later that there are some beings in this world whose strength you cannot defeat, and whose wishes you cannot violate. Just like if you want to sneak into my country, just like me I want to invite you to my palace, but my opinion and your opinion are of no importance to you or me.”

"The guest has been here for so long, and even I have figured it out. I am still lucky and don't want to stand up and identify myself."

Du Ruo looked at the spies lurking in front of the fool and asked directly:

"You have no intention of taking responsibility after you just plotted to assassinate me."

"Fools don't have such a plan." Knowing that her identity was exposed, the girl no longer persisted, raised her head, and stared directly at Du Ruo - if she took off the blindfold.

"Although you are not a person who can be fought for. Your eyes are full of hatred and ambition, but there is no need for fools to assassinate you. You are more useful alive than dead."

"It sounds reasonable, but that's just what you think."

If the sea of ​​sand is too loose, how can the workplace strife among fools be any better?

Is it weird to betray each other and take advantage of each other?

According to what Du Ruo knows, this kind of latent spy-type fools are usually trained by 'servants', which is completely different from the doctor's cooperative research on human experiments and the subordinates being studied.

But they are all fools.

"The smell of hot sand on your body is very authentic. How long have you been hiding, can you still find the smell of the snow country in the north? How can you be sure of the will of the executive officers? They may not even be the executive officers." Du Ruo smiled warmly, "Tannit is indeed I got the support of the Fools, right? That was your plan to prevent me from completing the unification of the power of the Sand Sea Tribe and gaining more benefits from the chaotic situation." 俴

The Tanit tribe, of course, cooperates with the Fools.

In other words, many forces in the Sand Sea have actively or passively cooperated with the Fools, and they can arrange spies.

Everyone knows that the sand sea is barren, and there are no special products in the desert except the ruins of the Red King and the Flower God. But these special products are enough, and they are enough for the fools who have been exploring the power of the demon god.

The Fool and the girls who were performing hidden tasks remained silent.

Du Ruo, the king of the sand sea, couldn't control what the desert people thought. How could she, a mere collaborator, be sure of what other desert people thought and did?

It wasn't the first time he had assassinated Du Ruo, it was just the first time he had shown this level of skill.

It's not an alchemical cannon, it's the kind of latent technology that can hide from his perception.

Does Shahai have that kind of technology?

If there is.

Are there any fools out there?

there must be!

So the fact that happened before us is that when Du Ruo was assassinated, the assassin used quite a lot of fool-proof technology, that kind of stealth elemental equipment...

"Your Majesty, at least I have not received any orders to cooperate with the operation. This operation has little to do with the Fools." Her tone was respectful but disrespectful. This was the confidence that the Fools gave her.

Shahai Mangzi, it is really difficult to resist the Fools, and they are not the Order Academy.

I need to worry about the grass god, but also need to worry about you?

Ah, needed.

Du Ruo is a bit weird. Maybe the Red King has really returned. The fools are not afraid, but there is no need to be rash. Investigate carefully. If it is possible to try to contact, any harvest related to the devil is a high-level resource, and it is more necessary. Enough patience and caution.

For the sake of the heart of God, the fools have been planning for hundreds of years.

How could you be in such a hurry?

So the order she received was really just to lurk, keep lurking, and then report intelligence, only to be suddenly exposed?
