Chapter 22, Balance·Interaction

"I'm a little hesitant now as to whether I should embark on a balanced path." Fugate finished his research early that day and leaned on the sofa to discuss with the system.

The object of their discussion is the conceptual ability of [Balance and Mutual Glancing].

This concept is enough for Fugate to embark on a balanced destiny.

[Didn’t you make a decision long ago? Why are you asking me? ] The system sneered at Fugate's question.

"Seeking psychological comfort, after all, humans are such strange animals." Fugate said calmly.

Fugate used the condensation of the concept of "equilibrium and mutual glance".

Fugate looked at the existence in the void.

The great existence also cast a ray of light here.

The two sides looked at each other for a moment, and then Fugate understood the concept of equilibrium.

Just like Fugate thought, Balance is indeed a special attack on the void, but the void also has its own philosophy, and it will be impossible for him to get rid of the influence of the void in the future.

But there is also good news, that is, you no longer have to worry about being completely swallowed up by nothingness, because the power of balance will adjust and reconcile [Existence] and [Nothingness] in your body.

At the beginning of the birth of all things, the weight of "existence" was placed on the plate, and the blooming life energy caused the balance of the universe to tilt instantly. But the patience of "balance" is immeasurable - given time, "existence" and "nothing" are destined to perfectly offset each other again, and the balance of the laws of the universe must be respected.

[It seems that you have already embarked on your destiny. This is the most powerful force in the Shuhai system. 】

"The powerful ones are the so-called [Star Gods]. Ordinary Destiny Walkers don't have that much strength." Fugate said.

"Speaking of how to convert the level of the system [Teyvat] and the level of [Beng Tie]."

[The demon gods and ancient dragons in this world are probably equivalent to the strong ones who have broken through the limiter once, and the laws of heaven are equivalent to the strongest people under the order]

"That's really miserable." Fugate complained.

[Will the plan continue? 】

"Of course I have to continue. Although I have embarked on the path of balance, the power of balance I have obtained so far is too weak. The main force against the erosion of nothingness is the [joy] subspace essence obtained from the demon prince."

"Seriously speaking, I have almost accumulated enough Mora, and I can already start relevant inspections in the desert area."

[Then what are you waiting for? 】

"Of course I'm waiting for a good day," Fugate said.

Well~ What he didn't say is that the real situation is that he was too obsessed with research during this period and almost forgot about the investigation.

Fortunately, the system reminded me.

However, it is possible to get money by going to the desert for inspection.

So...

A few weeks later, a project application for improving various alchemical materials and ley lines that are special to the desert area appeared on the desk of the Suron sage.

Unfortunately, it is different from the various studies on rainforest areas.

At this time, the senior officials of the Imperial Academy were already somewhat dissatisfied with the desert, so they were no longer optimistic about various research in the desert area.

The funds given are all given at a reasonable rate.

Even if Fugate, who had done several big jobs, formally applied for it, the funds would not be much.

When Charmian took Fugate's token to receive the funds, he couldn't help but complain.

"With this amount of money, we can only hire bodyguards with average reputations."

"Isn't this a matter of course?" Samer, who accompanied Shamian to get the funds, said it was normal for the funds to be so small. When she applied for research funds at home, she was given even less research funds.

"Besides, these funds are already quite large. I guess we only have so much for the sake of the instructor."

Fugate didn't take it seriously when he saw so much research funding. However, looking at the aggrieved two disciples, Fugate still explained a few words to the Order: "The Sumeru Desert area is not only poor in products, but also has many bandits and robbers. It is difficult to develop." Big and small at the same time.”

"Coupled with the stereotypes some people in the Order have about desert people, to be honest, it is very good to have these funds."

What Fugate did not say is that for the sake of his own academics, unless he is a high-status Havana, the gap between the inspection and research funding of most trainee Dharmadhas and formal Dharmadhas in desert areas needs to be made up by the researchers themselves. of.

And this matter will intensify hundreds of years from now.

After all, Lord Daci Shuwang is still alive, and everyone recognizes the correctness of the Three Gods Covenant. Therefore, although it is difficult to apply for research funds for research on desert areas, it is still possible to apply for research funds.

You may have to pay for it all yourself in the future.

"Then Charmian's contact with the mercenaries is left to you. The mercenary team of the Gilded Brigade that we cooperated with last time is very good. If that mercenary team is free, I hope we can continue to cooperate."

"No problem, mentor." Xia Mian said.

"The exploration area we went to the desert this time was the downwind erosion area," Fugate said.

"But the lower wind erosion area is a bit too prosperous." Sameer also knew Fugate's plan at this time.

Because it is close to Kavanyi, the lower wind erosion area is one of the most prosperous areas in the entire Sumeru Desert. Aru Village is one of the villages in the lower wind erosion area.

The desert tribes here are the most numerous, the products are the richest, and the number of natural robbers and monsters is also the largest.

If you choose to build a mausoleum here, it is estimated that the tomb will be robbed the next day.

"Don't worry too much. Let's examine the relevant environment of the desert first." Fugate said, "This is a long-term and lasting plan."

"The research project remains unchanged, as stated in the plan previously submitted to the Imperial Academy."

"We need to have a good understanding of the specialties of desert areas."

"After all, the Desert Alchemy Materials Illustration of the Order has not been updated for a long time. Some alchemies require new materials."

"It's about inspecting the desert, which is secondary. After all, I have enough time at the moment."

Fugate's first purpose this time was to inspect and study desert specialties, followed by arresting Yuaneng organs, and finally inspecting the desert.

He consulted documents and various maps of the desert area, and finally chose the Qianhe Sand Land.

It used to be the territory of the Flower Goddess. Most of the clans were matrilineal. The monsters were powerful and numerous. It was an inaccessible place and a dream place to build a mausoleum.

Of course, Feng Shui is also good. Fugate is also very interested in the burial place of the Goddess of Flowers, so it would be good to be able to practice Feng Shui.

"Yes, mentor." The apprentices nodded in agreement, and then went to work on their own. Kuru had to help complete the project and conduct the apprenticeship test.

Shamian wanted to contact the mercenaries, while Sameer needed to raise enough supplies.

Although it is okay to buy supplies from Kavanyi, the prices of supplies at Kavanyi are too expensive. They are useless except for convenience and have extremely low cost performance.

Even scholars who are investigating the desert will not choose to buy supplies in Kavanyi.

······

As the doctor and pharmacist of the health home, Batu was almost going crazy because of the monster disaster some time ago.

Fortunately, I have finally finished my busy work recently.

Batu's research found that many people's deaths could actually be avoided. It was precisely because of the lack of drugs to quickly stop bleeding that they died.

So he wanted to complete research on this drug.

So he came to find his mentor, Mr. Nathan Rice H. Fugate, on the one hand to seek support from his mentor, and on the other hand to prepare to use this direction as his next phase of research project.

As a Tiriyasi, if he wanted to conduct research, he could not avoid having a mentor.

"It's strange, the teacher is not at home." Batu listened to the movement in the Sixth Floor Manor, and after finding that there was indeed no sound, he walked towards the neighbor's house, and finally found Vizier Nizain in the suburbs. Mr. Special.

"Mr. Nizant, do you know where my mentor has gone?" Batu asked curiously. "It turns out to be Mr. Batu." Nizant, who was processing documents, glanced at Batu and said, "Your mentor, Mr. Nathan Rice, went to the desert area to inspect alchemical materials the day before yesterday."
< br>

Nizant pulled out a message and said: "It's really a coincidence. Mr. Baanka just came to ask me yesterday, are you also doing this for a new topic?"

"Uh~ Yes." Batu said, scratching his head.

Nizant said, "If it is a matter of project approval, you can go to the famous Mrs. Ella. Mr. Fugate and Mrs. Ella should have talked about it when he left some time ago."

"You should know where Mrs. Ella lives."

"I still know this, but I haven't visited him for a long time." An awkward yet polite smile appeared on Batu's face.

Other apprentices would occasionally visit Lady Ella. Among them, Charmian and Kuru before him often visited with Fugate.

Even Hertara who was far away in Mondstadt would receive three or four letters every year, but Batu only visited once or twice a year in the past few years.

After bidding farewell to Mr. Nizant, Batu looked at the still early morning sky, used the ice elemental power, and quickly ran towards the suburbs where Mrs. Ella was.

"Huh? Isn't this Baanka?" Batu came to a sudden stop.

"Batu? Long time no see." Baanka naturally discovered Batu's figure. "You look like you are going to Mrs. Ella's place too?"

"Well~ Today I wanted to find a mentor to apply for an alchemy project, but..." Batu said helplessly.

"I just came back with the caravan the night before yesterday." Baanca said helplessly.

"I just finished my work yesterday."

The two looked at each other, both sighed, and then they began to walk towards the place where Mrs. Ella was.

After getting to know each other, they both confirmed that the other's research would not collide with their own.

What Batu is planning to apply for is alchemy potions or medicinal powders that can quickly stop bleeding and are easy to carry.

The research project that Baanka is planning to apply for is a medicine that can speed up himself or the camel beast.

"Accelerating the camel beast... This is really a difficult problem." Batu clicked his tongue in surprise.

There are alchemical potions on the market that can speed up oneself, but there are really no alchemical potions on the market that can speed up the camel beast.

After all, the self-respect of the camel beast is there. If the camel beast can really run fast, then most monsters and ordinary elite monsters (similar to Qiuqiu thugs) may not be able to stop it.

As the original gods, the two of them were very fast on their feet.

So I quickly arrived at the suburb where Mrs. Ella was.

After asking the bosses from other colleges around, they quickly found Mrs. Ella in the field. After helping Mrs. Ella remove the recently grown weeds, they finally told Mrs. Ella. own purpose.

Mrs. Ella did not embarrass the two of them and asked them to write the application and bring it to her to stamp and sign.

"You two little guys, those who know know that you are busy, but those who don't know think you don't like the old woman."

"How could that be?" The two of them giggled and left, "I'll visit you again later."

Things went incredibly smoothly, of course, because both parties were from the same family, and this matter was not a problem at all to Mrs. Ella.

If it is those tutors with average status, then they will suffer a lot, because these tutors may not be able to pass the application for their own project papers, let alone help their own students.

"What a blessing." The two left with emotion.

In fact, the two of them would visit Master Fugate from time to time. Among them, Batu would visit more frequently, basically every month, while Baanka would only visit Fugate after each business trip with the caravan. Gate mentor.

······

Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Fugate and others on the other side had arrived at Kavanyi.

"Mr. Erominy, we haven't seen you for a long time." Fugate was talking to the boss of Kavanyi. Although Mr. Erominy's academic level is still a formal Tuscan, Fugate still treats him very much. gratitude.

If it weren't for Mr. Erominy's recommendation letter, I wouldn't have been able to successfully enroll in school that year.

This is his great benefactor.

"Oh~ It turns out to be Mr. Fugate. I haven't seen him for a long time. I didn't expect you to make such a big fuss." Erominy recognized Fugate after careful identification.

After all, several years have passed. Erominy is not like Fugate, who has super memory ability. The reason why he can recognize Fugate is because Fugate has strong academic ability and has [Fugate's Intelligence Amplifying Potion] is a great weapon for academic research.

Even if Erominy wanted to know, he couldn't.

After all, Eromini is also a scholar and has his own research.

Hmm~ Although no research results have appeared for several years, after all, if you are not an academic genius like Mr. Fugate, it is normal for you not to produce results.

The two talked about old times for a long time, and Fuquet also introduced the three students he brought to Erominy.

"So Samer is your student, so let me tell you whose student he is." Eromini said with emotion, "You must cherish this student. It has been a long time since there has been such an outstanding scholar in the desert."< br>


Fugate responded with a smile. After all, he was an apprentice connected to his destiny, and he could not give in.

Sameer scratched his head and wanted to say something, but finally gave up.

In fact, Sameer knew that his talent was very average. If he hadn't met his mentor and participated in his mentor's project, he wouldn't have achieved what he has today.

Maybe you are still worrying with other students about how to graduate and become a Tiriyasi.

Yes, among the students in their class, except for a few whose families are rich and powerful, and who have worked hard and have become Tilly Yesi, most of them are still worrying about their graduation thesis.

Fugate and the others left in the evening. Fugate and the others were not in a hurry. They would first adapt to the climate in the desert in Kavanyi, and then go to the desert area after the preparations were completed.

As for supplies, there is no need to worry. Fugate often over-purchases supplies when he goes out, and this time it is naturally the same.

Fugate had been to the desert before, and Samer was originally from the desert, so the two adapted quickly.

But Sharmian and Kuru are in more trouble.

Especially Charmian, it seems that due to some degradation of her bloodline, the hair and tail of the Tinale people make her absorb the heat of the desert amazingly.

It would only take a few hours for Charmian to faint from heatstroke or the like.

"Let me catch some water mushrooms or water slimes." My old friend the mercenary captain Spirit Wind Hunter suggested in a funny way.

"I have actually encountered this situation before, but what I didn't expect is that as a favored person of the gods, the heir of Hermanubis, strong and intelligent, with pure blood, Miss Charmian would also experience such a situation. .”

"Then I'll trouble the captain." Fugate said as he supported the dizzy Charmian.

"Don't worry, it will be fine soon. Moreover, water from water elemental slimes and floating water mushrooms can also be used for emergencies." It took the mercenary captain half a day to bring back the two monsters he mentioned.

The water elemental slime brought two of them, put them directly in small buckets and hung them on the body of the beast.

"Speaking of which, your mercenary group actually has so many camel beasts, which should not be underestimated." Fugate said.

"It's all passed down from our ancestors. Besides, this is what we eat." Lingfeng Hunter said proudly.

Having a sufficient number of camel beasts is also the key to their Gilded Brigade becoming a large mercenary group.

After all, for Sumeru people, camel beasts can basically be regarded as part of wealth. Enough camel beasts are enough wealth.

Their [Red King Divine Power Mercenary Group], or [Akhmar Divine Mercenary Group] is a large mercenary group. They not only have in-depth cooperation with the Temple of Silence in the rainforest area, but also have good cooperation in the desert area. reputable.

Therefore, they even have their own mercenary group stationed in Kavanyi.

That's where the Lingfeng Hunter got the camel beast. After all, the yak beasts in the rainforest area can't go to the desert area, because they will be heated to death. The desert area has and can only use camel beasts.
