People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

Then there is nothing to be shy about.

Referring to the last negotiation for the two Hearts of God, what was paid in the end was free industrial aid. The price of exchanging the Heart of the Rock God this time may not be much smaller.

Tartaglia never cared about these things.

But now the Heart of God was right in front of him. No matter how much he didn't want to get involved in this matter, he couldn't just sit there and watch. He had to get a clear signal from Rhode first, and then discuss how to bargain with the lady after leaving here. If that didn't work, he might have to report it to Her Majesty the Queen for a decision.

As for whether to use tough measures.

Considering that there are three rulers behind Rhodes, there is also an even more terrifying Grass Dragon King.

That's right.

Tartaglia also counted Apep as one of Rhodes' protectors.

Maybe it's because the authorities are confused.

Anyway, in Rhodes' eyes, Apep was a vicious man that he would want to hide eight hundred miles away from after seeing him once. In Tartaglia's opinion, if anything happened to Rhodes, the Grass Dragon would definitely be the first to kill him.

It's not that he learned any inside information.

It's just based on intuition.

Tartaglia believed that his intuition would not be wrong, so he decided to find out what Rhodes said first and then prepare for the subsequent negotiations.

Rhode also stated his request: "I want to borrow someone from you."

"Who?"

"PhD."

"Huh? This?"

Tartaglia was stunned again.

Paying the price of a Heart of God just to borrow the Doctor?

It’s not that it’s not possible.

But in Tartaglia's opinion, the price seemed a little too light.

"Hear me out."

"I have another request for the Doctor."

"First, I need him to erase all slices of himself, leaving only the last slice that reaches Mount Xumi to fulfill its promise."

"Second, the doctor is not allowed to conduct any more human experiments or other anti-human experiments in Xumi."

"third."

"."

"Twenty, we are not responsible for the doctor's life or death in Xumi, because Xumi will not bear any responsibility for any accidents caused by his personal behavior."

Rhode listed twenty additional constraints on the doctor in one breath, and then said, "If you agree, the deal is done. If you don't agree, I would rather destroy this Heart of God than give it to you."

Rhodes' attitude is very tough.

Since this hot potato cannot be given away anyway, I might as well sell it in a tough way and get myself enough benefits in return.

"."

Facing Rhodes' toughness, Tartaglia couldn't give an accurate answer immediately regarding the transaction conditions involving his colleagues.

Not to mention that Rhodes also gave so many restrictions.

Based on Tartaglia's understanding of the Doctor, let alone so many restrictions, even if there were no restrictions at all, the Doctor would be unlikely to agree to this.

Also.

Unlike Tartaglia, who became the last executive officer due to the blessing of the Ice Queen.

The first three executive officers of the Fatui do not have a subordinate relationship with the Queen, but rather a cooperative relationship.

Therefore, it is basically impossible to force the Doctor to do so as a condition for exchanging the Heart of God.

If you try to seize God's heart by force.

This is possible.

But the same thing goes, doing this will definitely offend the four people behind Rhodes who stand at the top of the continent of Teyvat.

Dartalia did a good job on his homework.

He knew that Xumi's Grass God's support for Rhodes was almost unconditional, especially since they had recently successfully resurrected the previous generation of Grass God. In other words, Rhodes was actually backed by four gods and a dragon king.

Really go and rob it.

That would be a waste of time to cause trouble for Her Majesty the Queen.

"Can you change the conditions?"

After thinking it over, he still couldn't think of the possibility that the doctor would agree. Feeling hopeless, Tartaglia said helplessly.

"No change, just this condition."

Rhode reminded him considerately, "If he doesn't want to come, you can tell him that Xumi is willing to give him the results of his research over the years. You should know that I can represent the Grass God. The promise I made is no different from what Nashida said. There is no need to question the authenticity of this."

"Really you can't change the conditions?"

Of course, Tartaglia knew that Rhodes could represent the God of Grass, but he still didn't give up, and his expression became even uglier.

He had reason to doubt.

Rhodes proposed such an almost impossible condition because he deliberately did not want Zhidong to get the Heart of God.

"Can't change it."

"You guys go back and discuss it. I'll wait for your reply."

Rhodes' attitude was very firm and he didn't give any chance for bargaining.

"okay, I get it."

No matter how reluctant he was, Tartaglia could only grit his teeth and agree temporarily.

This unpleasant transaction agreement also made Tartaglia, who was originally laughing and cheerful, fall into silence.

Judging from his expression, it was unclear whether he was thinking about how to get the Doctor to agree to Rhodes's conditions, or wondering what Rhodes was planning when he kept asking the Doctor to go to Xumi.

After listening for a while, Xiao looked left and right, and finally chose to remain silent like Tartaglia, and did not say much about the Heart of God.

After all, it was Zhongli who promised it himself.

As the saying goes, 'The Emperor must have a deep meaning behind this.'

In Xiao's eyes.

Whatever Zhongli does is right, and there is no doubt about it.

Therefore, how Rhodes wanted to deal with the Heart of God was his own business, and Xiao had no right to interfere.

What are Xiao and Tartaglia thinking at this moment?

Rhodes didn't know, nor did he want to know.

His only concern now was Apep, who walked into the darkness alone.

Wait until she emerges from the darkness again.

Rhodes immediately stepped forward and began his true words of submission.

The content is very simple.

He first explained that he had determined through archaeological documents and geological surveys that this space was a world rift in the continent of Teyvat. At the same time, he honestly admitted that with the limited power of their descendants, it would be difficult to successfully leave this secret realm where the rules of Teyvat did not apply. By the way, he also praised Apep a little and apologized for his arrogant remarks at that time, "It doesn't matter whether Apep is there or not."

I can tell.

Apep was very pleased with Rod's flattery and 'sincere' apology.

"Humph--"

"A smart-aleck human boy."

"Do you really think I don't know what you're thinking?"

"You just want to provoke me on purpose, and then apologize and admit your mistakes when you really can't do it, so that I can't save face and have to run away from here with you guys."

Apep confidently told Rhodes' plan.

Rhodes always responded with "Yeah, yes, yes, you are right."

The Grass Dragon King is one of the first dragon kings of Teyvat.

After Rod apologized and gave in, Apep, who thought he was magnanimous, generously forgave the ignorant remarks of this arrogant junior and took the initiative to say: "Stay with me and I will take you away."

That's what I want.

Rhodes called Xiao and the other three over with satisfaction. After making sure they were all ready, he led the three of them to salute Apep as an example.

"Master Grass Dragon, thank you for your help."

No matter whether it was real or pretended, at least they all did their best on the surface.

"Hypocritical human etiquette."

Apep, who clearly looked very pleased, said this insincerely, then raised his right hand and casually drew a line with his finger.

As her fingers slid through the dark cave, crackling sounds exploded violently.

Previously, Tartaglia had spent a lot of energy and had to find the right space connection point to open the space portal.

At this moment, in Apep's hands, there was no need to even find a connection point. He easily opened a more stable and secure portal in the stable space.

The difference in strength was so great that it was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon. It made Tartaglia's eyelids twitch.

"Okay, I'm here, so go out without any worries."

Apep waved his hand casually, indicating that Rhodes and the others could go out.

A rare opportunity.

Rhodes and his companions did not hesitate. According to the prior arrangement, they headed towards the gate as quickly as possible.

Since they were unsure of the environment outside the space gate, Ye Lan was responsible for leading the charge, followed by the weak Tartaglia, while Xiao and Rhodes were the last two people to walk side by side at the end.

As for Apep.

She can go out anytime, no need to worry about her.

Just when Ye Lan and Tartaglia had already left.

Xiao, who had already stepped half a foot into the space gate, suddenly paused and turned his head to look into the darkness of the cave.

immediately.

A dark phantom slowly emerged from the darkness.

From the appearance.

This phantom was no different from the phantom that had previously chased and killed several people in the first level of the illusion.

However, not only Xiao, Rhodes also felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this phantom.

"Yeah, interesting."

"After becoming like this, do you still have your own consciousness?"

Apep also sighed with interest.

"Floating House."

Xiao retracted his foot, stood straight and looked at the phantom.

Reminded by Xiao and Apep.

Rhodes now confirmed where that familiar feeling came from.

Floating house.

The phantom in front of him, who has lost his own body, is Fushe who died here that year.

"Fushe, do you have something to say to me?"

Looking at Fushe walking towards him, Xiao asked in a low voice.

Rhodes looked at Xiao, then looked at the phantom that Fushe had transformed into.
