"I hope you can get through this difficult time. And..."

The boy looked in the direction where those strange humanoid creatures had gone before, sadness turning into worry on his face.

"Tevalin..."

Chapter 28 Industrial Waste of Modern Technology

Among the Knights of Favonius.

Amber reported to Qin what happened in the Wolf Territory.

Listening to Amber's report, Qin frowned tightly.

"Sure enough, whether it's the Hillilks or the slimes and other elemental creatures, all of them have undergone strange changes..."

"Hichill people? Are the Hilichurls becoming irritable too?"

Amber showed a surprised expression when she heard Qin's words. As a scouting knight, she should have been the first to discover these things.

But now Captain Qin actually confirmed this from her own report, which made Amber a little surprised and unacceptable. She felt as if she had failed in her duty and it was very awkward.

However, Qin's next words dispelled Amber's awkwardness.

"Well... recently, merchants coming from Liyue have encountered many more violent Hillilks on the road. Moreover, these Hillilks seem to carry certain viruses. People who are attacked and injured by Hillilks will have a black aura on their bodies and become much more manic."

"I have received a lot of requests from merchants asking the Knights of Favonius to send people to escort them."

Qin rubbed her forehead and looked very tired.

"But we don't have enough manpower..."

"So Amber, could you please investigate why the Hilliculers and elemental creatures have become so manic?"

The Grand Master of the Knights Templar, Falgar, took away a large number of the Knights Templar's elite forces, resulting in a significant weakening of the Knights Templar's strength.

However, even after their strength was weakened, the Knights still had no problem facing some of the violent Hilichurls.

If we follow the merchants' request and assign people to protect them, it can actually be done.

But that would happen.

Mondstadt's strength will further weaken. Now in Mondstadt, there are Fatui watching covetously, and outside there are Hilichurls and Slimes who may attack at any time.

Therefore, it is impossible to reduce the city’s defense capabilities.

Therefore, Qin suppressed all the merchants' requests for escort, and also communicated with the Adventurer's Association, asking them not to release the commissions there for the time being.

After all, adventurers are also an important force in defending Mondstadt.

but. .

The merchant's commission and request cannot be suppressed for too long, so it becomes particularly important to explore the reasons why the hillbillies and elemental creatures have become manic.

This is especially true now that the West Wind Dragon has also become manic.

Amber heard Qin's instructions and immediately stood at attention and spoke seriously.

"I understand, Captain Qin. Leave this matter to me. I will ensure that the mission is completed!"

"Yeah." Qin nodded. "Oh, by the way, where is Miss Eluta now?"

"Eluta-chan." Amber blinked. "Eluta-chan is now in the Deer Hunter Restaurant with Sucrose. Because Eluta-chan's weapon was broken while saving Sucrose, Sucrose took Eluta-chan to find Uncle Wagner to see if there are any better weapons in order to repay him."

"I see..." Qin understood, and then said to Amber, "Then, you can bring Miss Eluta with you when you go on the reconnaissance. Miss Eluta is very powerful and can definitely help you."

As she spoke, Qin took out a small bag from the drawer of her desk and handed it to Amber.

"By the way, please give this to Miss Eluta for me."

Amber took the small bag. The feel of it in her hand and the metallic sound made her immediately understand what was in the bag.

Qin continued, "Ms. Eluta is from another world. She is new here, so naturally she doesn't have much money. So this money is her reward for this incident. Although it's not a lot, it should be enough for the recent period of time."

"Besides, there will be another reward after the incident."

Amber's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard Qin's words.

"Then I'll leave now. Elta-chan should be very happy. I thank you on Elta-chan's behalf, Captain Qin."

After saying that, Amber left in a hurry.

Watching Amber leave, Qin smiled slightly, then lowered her head and continued to handle her official business.

Suddenly, Qin, who was writing a document, paused for a moment.

"Speaking of which, as for weapons, Ms. Eluta can get one from the Knights. But if Sucrose wants to buy one, forget it. The weapons made by Wagner's craftsmanship are much better than the standard Favonius Knight sword."

Shaking her head, Qin picked up her pen again.

······

Wagner, the blacksmith at Schutz's Blacksmith Shop.

Looking at the Sword of Promised Victory that Sucrose had asked for from Eluta, which only had the hilt left, she frowned.

"Are you trying to fool me with this garbage?" Wagner shook the hilt of the sword in his hand with a very bad tone.

"Although this hilt looks very gorgeous and the material is quite exotic, this forging technique is a complete insult to forging!!"

Wagner was so angry that he threw the hilt of the sword in his hand to the ground.

"Although there are only some sword remnants left, I can confirm that these remnants should be a very good fusion metal."

"If this fused metal is hammered, then this sword will definitely become very good."

"But! This is just a piece of rubbish that was melted, shaped, and given a wooden hilt! You tell me it's a sword! Are you looking down on forging?!"

Wagner was very angry, extremely angry. He pointed at the hilt of the sword with some blade still remaining on the ground and said with disdain.

"You actually asked me to forge a weapon stronger than this?"

"Then go over there! The most tattered edgeless sword over there is much more powerful than this piece of junk! Even this piece of junk would break the blade when I cut vegetables."

After saying that, Wagner completely ignored Sucrose who was frightened by his bad attitude, and Eluta who thought it was very appropriate after hearing his contempt for the Sword of Promised Victory.

As Wagner said.

Although this sword is relatively expensive in the world of Eluta.

But after all, the value of this sword lies not in its practicality but in its aesthetic value.

For combat purposes, it is at most slightly better than a wooden sword. It is not impossible that the blade will break when cutting vegetables. After all, the kitchen knives in modern society are really good.

If a kitchen knife were to chop it, this sword of pledge of victory might actually be notched.

Therefore, Eluta strongly agreed with Wagner's judgment.

only..

Will this bad-tempered blacksmith refuse to make weapons for himself because of this thing?

"Well, I'll draw a design, can you help me build it?"

"Get out!!"

Wagner shouted.

Chapter 29: Eluta's New Idea

At this time, Sucrose looked at Wagner and then at Eluta, with an embarrassed look on her face.

I had clearly promised Eluta that I would buy him a weapon, but the blacksmith got angry.

And Sugar had no idea why she was angry.

But sugar is clear.

That is...it seems that I have no way to buy weapons for Miss Eluta.

"Um... Miss Eluta..." Sugar looked at Eluta in embarrassment. She looked pitiful and as if she was about to cry.

Eluta scratched his cheek, feeling a little embarrassed.

If Wagner had not been shown the industrial waste of modern technology, he would probably have been able to make some weapons for himself.

But now. . .

Eluta looked inside Schutz's blacksmith shop and found that Schutz was not there.

In other words, even if he just wanted to buy a bladeless sword, Wagner would not sell it to him.

Looking at the bewildered Sugar, Eluta sighed and smiled helplessly. Looking at Wagner in the blacksmith shop, Eluta suddenly had an idea.

And after this idea came up.

Eluta felt that several more protections seemed to have appeared on him.

[Ore Protection] can distinguish the types of all ores and judge the quality of all basic materials.

[Blessing of Flame] You can summon flames at will and control their intensity and size.

[The God of Craftsmanship's Blessing] allows you to forge any weapons and equipment you want at will.

Eluta pushed his glasses, curled up the corners of his mouth, took Sucrose's hand, and prepared to leave.

"Sugar, you're out and about a lot, so you should know where there are minerals."

"Huh? Ah! Yes! I know!" Sucrose looked panicked when she was suddenly dragged away by Eluta. After hearing Eluta's words, Sucrose looked confused.

However, Sugar, who often travels in the wild, does know where some minerals exist, although there are not many. After all, they are all open-pit mines in the wild, and it is impossible for there to be mine caves.

Eluta, who has played the game, knows roughly some mining locations, but the mining locations that Eluta knows are basically very, very far away.

For example, over at Guyun Pavilion, and over at Inazuma's desolate sea.

As for Mondstadt, Eluta was not particularly clear about where the mining sites were.

However, the mining sites that Eluta knew about were basically all those with more crystal blocks and magic crystal blocks.

What Eluta needs now is not such a high-level ore. Now Eluta only needs some iron blocks.

As for the iron blocks, Eluta vaguely remembered that there seemed to be some at the foot of the mountain outside Mondstadt, so Sucrose should know about it.

"So, Sugar, can you take me to the nearest place with minerals? As long as it's ordinary iron ore, it will be fine."

"Ha... Around the post station outside Mondstadt, at the foot of the mountain, there are often some low-quality iron ores. Is this okay?"

Sucrose was still very confused at this time and could not understand why Eluta wanted to look for ore.

"Ms. Eluta, if you want ore, you can buy it in Mondstadt. Although Mr. Wagner is angry and may not sell it to you, and Mr. Schutz is not here either."

"But we can buy it at the store. The price is not expensive. There are also tin and crystal blocks over there. If you want, we can buy them there."

It is obvious that Miss Eluta wants to find ore, but ore is for sale in the city. If you want ore, you just need to buy it.

After hearing what Sucrose said, Eluta stopped.

indeed.

Although he wanted to try to forge his own weapons, as for ore, even if he went to look for it and mine it, in this city and the wild, the overall map of the continent of Teyvat was magnified countless times.

Sugar and I found an iron ore, and if we start forging it, it will probably take a whole day.

It would be best if you could buy it now.

"So, Sucrose, could you please buy me some ore? If it's not too expensive, some magic crystal blocks and crystal blocks would be even better. I want to try forging my own weapons. Don't look at me like this, I can also forge iron."

"Hmm..." Sugar blinked when she heard that, looked at Eluta in surprise and nodded, "If it's just ore, please leave it to me."

Afterwards, under the leadership of Sugar, the two went to the market in Mondstadt and bought some ore from there.

It's just that the quantity is not too much, but Eluta feels that it is just enough. After all, Eluta has never made a weapon before. Now he buys the ore only based on the experience brought by the protection and his own intuition.

In recent times, the ore in Mondstadt is still relatively expensive, and most of the ore is basically transported from Liyue.

Precious minerals such as crystal blocks and magic crystal blocks can only be found in large quantities in the Wind Dragon Ruins in Mondstadt.

In the past, the Wind Dragon Ruins were accessible, but recently the entire Wind Dragon Ruins have been covered with a layer of strong wind barrier, making it impossible to enter.

Therefore, the price of ore in Mond has been relatively expensive recently.

As for the money for sugar, there is not much recently. After all, alchemical experiments are very expensive.

That is to say, some alchemical items made from sugar have very special effects, are liked by some people, and can be sold in large quantities.

And Sucrose also usually goes to the Adventurer's Guild to complete quests.

Therefore, although Sucrose does not have much money, it is just that she does not have much money. Every month, Sucrose can earn a considerable amount of income from the sale of alchemical items. It’s just that Sucrose has not received the income for this month yet.
