People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

Seno immediately became interested and raised his eyebrows and said, "You tell me, I'll listen."

"This is what the children in the village asked me. What is the most unclean creature in Teyvat?"

Rod's first question was a very simple one.

After hearing this, Seno immediately answered: "It's the ice slime, because it always walks on the water and never goes into the water to bathe."

"Oh~~~"

"So this is ah."

"Oh, you are really amazing, brother. You solved such a difficult problem in no time."

Rhode acted as if he had suddenly realized something, not feeling embarrassed at all by such a cold joke. After praising Seno, he immediately asked the second question: "This is also what the children in the village asked me. Why do sandworms in the desert like to stay in the sand and never come out?"

"Ok?"

This question is obviously a bit more difficult.

But this still did not stump Seno. After a little thought, he came up with what he thought was a very beautiful answer: "Because it is a wind-eroded sandworm and is afraid of water!"

It seemed as if he was afraid that Rhodes wouldn't understand what he said.

Seno also specifically explained: "Wind, humidity (erosion), sandworms, so they are afraid of water and dare not show their heads."

'You are truly a genius.'

Rhode gave Seno a thumbs up, acknowledging the answer, and then asked the third question: "This time it was Dixia who asked me, why does Tinari always think your jokes are not funny? Brother Seno, do you have any idea?"

"."

"What kind of question is that?"

Seno's face suddenly fell.

There is one very good thing about this person.

That is, like Gulersh, he never thinks his own jokes are funny.

Now that Rhodes suddenly pointed out that his jokes were not funny, the situation suddenly became a little awkward.

"I'm serious."

Rhodes chuckled and said, "Do you want to think about the answer carefully?"

Hearing that there was something else in his words, Seno narrowed his eyes slightly.

Combined with the first two questions, which can be explained by jokes.

So is there a possibility that Rhodes' question was not stating the facts, but was simply a literal meaning?

A joke contest?

The fighting spirit immediately ignited in Seno's eyes.

When it comes to jokes, even Gulersh is no match for him. He never expected that his junior fellow apprentice would want to compete with him in this regard.

"Well--"

Seno, realizing Rhodes' intention, began to think seriously.

But he thought about it.

Although he knew that Rhodes was competing with him in jokes, he tried his best to avoid thinking that Tinari really didn't like his jokes, but he couldn't help but think about other things while thinking about how to interpret the literal meaning.

This is a question of combining reality with something that is a bad joke.

It’s really difficult to answer!

Even someone as calm as Seno, even if he understood Rhodes' intentions, could not avoid falling into such an emotional text trap.

After struggling for a long time.

Seno reluctantly gave up thinking and admitted with a disappointed look: "I can't think of the answer."

"hey-hey."

Rhodes said proudly, "Because Tinari is a botanist of the Life Theory School, he has seen a lot of jokes, so of course he won't find your jokes funny."

"."

"Hiss, it's so cold."

Seno, who has always been accustomed to using his own jokes to defeat others, finally knew what it feels like to be attacked with jokes today.

In short, it was the kind of feeling that Rhode was laughing so hard that he fell backwards, but he himself felt extremely embarrassed.

But it's not over yet.

While Seno was thinking about how to fight back against Rhodes.

Then Rhodes started to attack with a barrage of cold jokes.

"I actually think you should be an adventurer, because your hat is so eye-catching. An adventurer's hat shows off his family. Look, it's very suitable."

"And why are those prisoners who escaped to the desert so afraid of you, the great discipline officer? Because they are afraid of Xumi Rose (power)."

"Why does Cole never ask Tinari when she doesn't know how to answer a question? Because Tinari doesn't know how to answer a question."

"By the way, Senior Brother, you know Kawi, right? I remember he said he knew you. So why would such a skinny guy like him play with a greatsword? Could it be because he's a greatsword (architect)?"

"Why can the floating mushroom beasts in the rain forest always jump so high? I think it's probably because they are estimating the height?"

"Brother Seno, do you know what a piece of glass will say before it falls from a tall building? It will say good night, because I am going to break (sleep)."

"."

This is a joke that is comparable to a mental attack.

Seeing that Rhode had said more than a dozen words in a row and still had no intention of stopping, Seno could no longer bear it and interrupted him with his hand covering his forehead, saying, "Stop, don't say anymore."

"Ok?"

Rhode looked at the wilted Seno like an eggplant hit by frost with a smile, and said with a grin, "I still have dozens of hidden jokes to tell you. Are you sure you don't want to hear them?"

Only magic can fight magic.

Dad never lied to me.

After being frozen by Seno's jokes many times, Rhodes learned his lesson and thought for a long time, and finally came up with this method which can be called "fighting poison with poison".

Very useful.

Having been defeated in his most proud field, Seno really showed his silence on the road. Not only did he lose the interest in telling jokes, but even the idea of ​​talking to Rhodes seemed to have been wiped out in the joke battle just now.

Apart from necessary communication, the two remained in a quiet area until they came to an ancient and desolate ruin.

The location of this relic is very remote.

Unfortunately, if it weren't for someone like Senuo who is familiar with the road leading the way, most normal people would not be able to find this place.

There are no signs of human life on the outside of the ruins.

It seems that the tribesmen that Seno mentioned never go out.

Follow Seno.

Rhodes entered the ruins with him.

As soon as I walked in the door.

He suddenly understood why these hermits didn't need to go out.

There is a town spirit here.

An elemental creature that can create small oases and water sources, helping people grow food even without the need for the sun.

Seno moved back and forth in the complex corridors skillfully, manipulating some hidden mechanisms from time to time. Sometimes he would go back to the original path after going around in circles, but he could always lead Rhodes to find a deeper path without triggering the defense mechanism of the ruins once.

It seems that even though he was taken away from here by the Ordinance House when he was young, he still remembers everything here, as if he had never forgotten it.

When the two of them reached the deepest part of the ruins.

A bright and spacious hall suddenly appeared before our eyes.

This was Rhodes' second time entering the ruins left by the Scarlet King civilization.

But when he saw the magnificent palace buried deep underground in front of him, he was still shocked by its ingenuity and magnificence.

There are some shadowy figures in the ruins.

not much.

Most of them are elderly people.

Hearing the noise, they all came out from their respective residences, leaning on their wooden sticks.

Very similar to Seno's outfit.

They also wore wolf-head hats and pendants that symbolized the Red King Akhmār. Although they moved with little strength, they were all full of energy and spirit.

"You are? Seno?"

After so many years, the old people could only vaguely recognize that the adult Seno in front of them was the child they had sent away with their own hands.

"High Priest, it's me. I'm back."

Seno lowered his head slightly and made a strange gesture and courtesy to the vigorous old man in the lead.

Rod had never seen it.

I think it should be the unique etiquette of the Red King Priest lineage.

"Who is this?"

After patting Seno's shoulder with relief, the high priest turned his attention to Rhodes.

And that's it.

His pupils suddenly shrank into needle-like shapes, and he stared at Rhodes intently, as if he wanted to see through Rhodes from the inside out.

There are a lot of things to do at home at the end of the month, so I can't write 10,000 words a day these days. But as agreed, I will write 10,000 words a day for a month. The fewer words I have missed these days will be considered as arrears. I will make up for it next month when I finish my work.

135. Chapter 133 The Power from the Red King

Chapter 133 The Power from the Red King

“He can see me.”

As the high priest stared at Rhodes, Nashida exclaimed in surprise.

"?"

Can a mortal see the gods hiding in the dark with ideology?

Rhodes couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

This was the first time that someone had seen Nashida in him at first sight.

Different from incomplete divine power.

Nashida's power is close to perfection.

When she used the power of the God of Grass to travel through the void terminal, theoretically no one except a demon-level warrior could discover her.

This is why the great sage would repeatedly guard against her.

But the descendant of the Red King's priest who had been passed down for countless generations could see the consciousness hidden in Rhodes at a glance.

"The power of the Red King?"

This question was not asked to Nashida, but to the high priest.

Besides.

Rhodes could not think of any other explanation.

"Precisely."

“It’s the power of the priests.”

"We are just mortals who have received the King's grace. Compared to the King's power, we are just fireflies."

The high priest naturally knew what Rhodes was asking. After a brief explanation, he bowed respectfully to Rhodes in front of Senor's confused eyes and said, "Respected King of Plants, I didn't expect you to come here in person. Please forgive me for not welcoming you."
