Chapter 39, Departure
Sitting on the carriage heading to Mondstadt, Fugate was accompanied by only one orderly.
Because Fugate had to go to [Xumi] for business, the route he took to Fontaine this time was not directly to Fontaine, but through Mondstadt, Liyue, Xumi, and finally from Xumi to Fontaine.
The journey is not all horse-drawn. When you arrive at Liyue Port, you will take a boat to Xumi City, which is faster.
With the orderly driving, Fugate was relatively free, especially after he had just finished chatting with Charmian.
"Talk about the system." Fugate asked.
【? 】The system quickly bubbled up.
"How many cigarettes have we accumulated now?" Fugate asked.
[606 draws, not too much, mainly because although your faith has not been broken, it is becoming less and less now. By the way, why don’t you use the ‘Sacred Number Language’ now. 】
"There is no need for 'Sacred Numerology' now. After all, the current foreign minister is Nathan Rice (Void). Although Sacred Numerology is not completely useless, its effect is very limited." Fugate said.
【Do you want to pray? 】
"Yes." Fugate said, "Let's test the waters with sixty-six pumps first. I've wanted to do this for a long time. Well, I feel a lot better after saying it."
[Is it okay to just say it directly? 】The system refers to the orderly outside.
"No problem, I've already been hypnotized." Fugate said.
[Is it necessary to use the power of hope to set the track this time? 】
"Of course, the key word this time is [enjoyment]." Fugate said.
[Wow~ Host, I’m optimistic about you~]
"Hmph~ Why are you so weird? After working hard for so many years, can't I still enjoy it?" Fugate said.
[I’m not weird either. You’re not in the subspace. Has your whole perception become so slow? ] The system said helplessly, enjoyment is also a powerful force, especially at the spiritual level.
"Start praying."
[Seamless Heavenly Clothes]*6: Three-star gorgeous clothes from "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", which can change shapes independently, have amazing defense, and can last for three thousand years.
Fugate touched his chin. It seemed that the power of holy numbers could still affect prayers.
But six seamless garments? You and Charmian should each have two pieces, leaving two as spares.
"Sigh~ Subspace teleportation is still far away." Fugate complained, "Am I really not as good as Ogryn?"
[Gem Meat]*6: Three-star delicacies from "Food World" are produced in the body of gem mammoths. Its meat contains extremely powerful energy, and its deliciousness has exceeded the range of normal human beings.
"It just so happens that I am not a normal human being." Fugate complained, "These guys really went to other worlds to rob with the blessing of the holy number."
[Mordenkainen's Spell Book Collection] *6: From the three-star magic book of "The World of Greyhawk", which records Mordenkainen's mansion spell, Mordenkainen's disintegration spell, Mordenkainen's sword, Mordenkainen's private chamber spell, Mordenkainen's loyal dog spell, The development process and practice methods of Mordenkainen's Memories.
"Although it is certain that I am not accustomed to the local environment, it is also of great reference value."
"However, this Mordenkainen Disintegration Technique seems a bit familiar. Could it be that 'when it is launched, both the enemy and us will cry'"
[Xiangyun]*6: Three-star immortal creation from "The World of Immortals", the best choice for travel.
[It is not recommended to take this out] The system jumped up and said [The aura that maintains the 'auspicious cloud' does not exist in the world of Teyvat. Taking it out directly will cause it to dissipate directly, unless you find a use for it. 】
"Another warehouse manager, no~ six."
"After the basic necessities of life are over, what will happen next?"
[Voice of Xipei]: A voice from "Honkai: Star Rail", unknown level, can make people understand each other, and let people understand the true meaning of the gathering.
[Taiyi Movement]: A movement from "Honkai: Star Rail", unknown level, which can make people respect order and understand the true meaning of rule.
[Breding Crest]: An image from "Honkai: Star Rail", unknown level, insect swarm flapping its wings, the true meaning of breeding.
[Memory/Incineration Invitation]: A four-star level invitation from "Honkai: Star Rail" allows you to transform into a memetic body and join the Liuguang Yiting/Incineration Industry.
[Call of Pure Beauty]: A call from "Honkai: Star Rail". At an unknown level, the pure goodness of the material world is reflected in the hearts of intelligent beings to form "meaning" - an existence called "beauty".
[Blessing of Abundance]: A five-star blessing from "Honkai: Star Railroad". Those who understand the true meaning of Abundance can use it without side effects. If they don't understand the true meaning of Abundance, they will turn into ignorant evil things. Nirvana without Remaining - Medicine Master.
"It's a special show for Star Gods... But except for the good Medicine Master, everything else seems to have some problems." Fugate muttered.
Especially the so-called [Invitation to Memory/Incineration], the meme itself looks good, but Fugate doesn't want to be like that.
Thirty years later, I have gained something, but it is not that big.
At least what Fugate always wanted, there was no music to relieve his boredom on the road.
[Bound volume of popular novels]*6: One-star miscellaneous items from "Earth OL", which can be used to relieve boredom and entertainment.
[Popular Comic Book Collection] *6: One-star miscellaneous items from "Earth OL", which can be used to relieve boredom and entertainment.
"It's not bad. I have something to relieve my boredom on the road."
[Group Game]*6: One-star sundries from "Earth OL", which can be used to relieve boredom and entertainment.
"What the hell..." came from a cry from someone who has never played board games or group games. "Listen to me, there are a lot of fun things in Earth OL, don't look for things I haven't seen before."
[These things look inconspicuous, but actually contain a lot of information about other worlds] the system said.
"So it has nothing to do with me." Fugate rolled his eyes and said, "You can also take me to change the world immediately."
[It can’t be done. The controller of this world is too powerful and there are several strong men under his command. They are definitely at the star level. To forcefully escape, you must first pass that level. 】
"That's enough, and I have the admiral's prophecy technique, which allows me to quickly obtain information about the world. This information is just the icing on the cake."
"There are still eighteen draws left, let's continue."
[Luo Tianyi Sings Vinyl Record] *6: A two-star record from the world of "Music", containing a slight supernatural power that can arouse human emotions.
"My record player is still in Sumeru." Fugate finally recalled a thing he had forgotten.
That is, even if you have a vinyl record, you can't listen to the song immediately.
[Your memory is getting worse and worse, you are worthy of Fugate (forgetting)] the system said.
[Fishing Rod]*6: A four-star rare item from Minecraft that can fish something out of the water (other rare items from Minecraft). Where is my fishing rod? Who stole my fishing rod? What is it? - Steve.
[Blocks and Miscellaneous]*6: Three-star rare items from "Minecraft", including three thin ice cubes and three barrels of magma. Why did my stove go out? Did I forget to put the magma bucket? - Steve.
"Very good, the Prayer Pool is quite courageous." Fugate said.
The rest of the journey was spent reading novels in Fugate. Occasionally, there would be a resting place for fools along the way.
"Colonel [Zhu], we have arrived in Mondstadt. Should we go to the stronghold to rest for a while, or go to another place to rest." The orderly asked.
"Let's go to Mondstadt. I haven't been to Mondstadt for a long time. I want to see Mondstadt." Fugate said.
"It's my lord." The orderly went to drive without saying anything else.
"Tell me about Mondstadt's situation," Fugate said.
"The current Grand Commander of Mondstadt is Falga. He is a very powerful man." said the orderly. "Mondstadt's business is mainly based on the traditional wine industry, among which the winery of the Leggenfund family is the pillar. Industry.”
"The thing you shouldn't mess with most in Mondstadt is probably the Church of the West Wind. Those nuns are also very scary."
"Now our diplomatic envoy stationed in Mondstadt in the winter is Mr. [Doctor]."
The orderly told him everything he had learned. There was not much useful information, but it didn't matter. Fugate was not planning to cause trouble. He only knew this information just in case.
Fugate's current level is rated LV62 in the system. It has been several months, and the recovery speed has not only not become faster, but has actually become slower.
However, this level of strength is enough. The whole of Mondstadt is only as powerful as two palms compared to Forgate.
"It can only be said that these knights have indeed slacked off, and are far less powerful than the previous knights."
In the past, most of the official knights of the Knights of the West Wind were at LV40, and the elites were all at LV40+.
But Fugate actually saw several LV20+ knights now. The long-term peace has indeed made these knights slack off a lot.
On the contrary, Foolish People, or Zhidong's combat power has always been maintained very well.
Fugate's orderly should be classified as a guerrilla soldier.
The fire gun carried on its back can be inspired by the evil eye of the fire element, and the power it inspires cannot be underestimated. The body has been strengthened and transformed to a certain extent, so the level is not low, enough to reach LV37, which is similar to the current elite among the West Wind Knights that Fugate has seen.
"It seems that someone in trouble is coming." Cripps Legenfend was driving the carriage. Today was the day he sent his son Diluc to join the Knights of the West Wind.
But it seems the Knights of the West Wind are in trouble again, with a big shot coming from Solstice.
Zhidong is a country with very distinct classes. Anyone who can ride on that kind of carriage knows that he is a big shot in Zhidong without asking.
A doctor is enough to give Falga a headache.
"You are from the Legenfund family. Who is Holstein Legenfinder to you?" Fugate looked at the red-haired man in front of him and asked.
He just sensed a familiar scent and came over to find it.
Krips Legenfend's mouth was a little stiff. He didn't expect that trouble would come directly to him.
What Fugate sensed was the aura of his disciple Hetara, which reminded him of some things in the past.
When Hetara's spirit returned to the highest heaven (subspace), she left her power to her own bloodline.
That is, the Holstein Legenfender whom Fugate just asked about. He is one of Hertara's direct blood relatives and Hertara's favorite grandson.
"That is my ancestor." Kripps Legenfend thought for a while before he remembered that Holstein Legenfend was the head of the Legenfend family five hundred years ago, and led the family to success. Through the dark disaster.
The current Morningside Winery and Angel's Gift were properties purchased by Holstein Legenfender, who was also the first owner of Morningside Winery.
Fugate muttered something about that little brat and left.
"Father." As a boy, Diluc looked at Cripps Legenfend and called out before waking his father up from all his thoughts.
"What does that weirdo mean?"
Cripps Legenfend touched Diluc and led Diluc back into the carriage.
"Colonel [沤 Pearl], do you know Mr. Cripps?"
"I don't know him, but I know his ancestors."
"?"
"A certain generation of his ancestors were my students."
"?" The orderly didn't know what to say. He could only smile awkwardly and continue driving.
Diluc lay on the window and looked at the carriage where Fugate was.
Fugate smiled evilly and said to the void: "Hetara, do you want to meet your descendants."
"Teacher, what are you doing again?" Hetara's spirit said speechlessly after hearing Fugate's words.
After the Great Merciful Tree King settled in the subspace and became the secondary god of Fugate's subspace under the catalysis of faith, most of the spirits that had been collected by Fugate had new places to go.
Thinking of the time when the three kings ruled together, King Daci Shu also accepted the spirits of these desert people and placed them under the management of several apprentices of Fugate.
However, some of the apprentices seemed a bit out of place.
This apprentice is Hetara. Hetara is not a believer of the Great Mercy Tree King, but a believer of Barbatos. Although the Great Mercy Tree King knows Barbatos, the relationship is not good enough to take care of the other believer.
"Do you want to follow that kid?" Fugate said. "His fate is very heavy."
"...Okay, it just so happens that I haven't had anything to do recently." Hertara said, "It just so happens that I also want to see how Mondstadt has been doing in recent years."
"Then you may be disappointed." Fugate said with a smile, "Mond is no better than before."
······
"I think Mondstadt is good like this." After Hertara used prophecy to predict Mondt's situation, she expressed satisfaction with Mondt's situation.
It is completely different from what my teacher said. The people live and work in peace and contentment. Although the overall combat power of the Knights has declined a bit, the high-level combat power is still so strong.
"But how should I deal with the younger generations of the family." Hetara scratched her head.
"Speaking of it, he is the kun grandson of the er grandson of Holstein." (The descendants are called Zi, grandson, zeng, xuan, lai, 晜, still, yun, er, er grandson is already the limit. . )
"Why don't we turn it into a family crest or something." Hertara also read novels and biographies.
······
"Sir Doctor, Colonel [Zhu Zhu] has come to Mondstadt." A debt handler reported to [Doctor].
"? Didn't this guy say he was going to Fontaine? Why did he come here." [Doctor] said in surprise.
"It is said that I am going back to Xumi." said the debt handler.
"Then let him go... No, give him the question and ask him to give me the answer as soon as possible." [Doctor] wrote a question and gave it to the debt processor.
"It would be a pity not to use such a useful brain more often."
"Unfortunately, the failure rate of brain modification and enhancement is still too high."
Seeing that [Doctor] was talking to himself again and immersed in his own world, the debt handler immediately withdrew and sent the letter.
The [Doctor] who is trapped in his own world is the most dangerous of all executives, whether to his enemies or his own people.
······
"Really, but on this issue... This guy is really doing research on brain science, and he is using the human brain, just to save a little time... Tsk, tsk." Fugate did not comment on this, after all He's not a local.
As long as the test material is not someone Fugate knows and is not conducted in front of him, he will pretend it doesn't exist.
Although he said this, Fugate still wrote down the solved problem as quickly as possible.
"I hope that those experimental subjects will suffer less." Fugate prayed for the experimental materials that he did not recognize.
Then ordered a glass of grape juice.
The orderly stopped talking.
Fugate ignored this and shook his head to the sound of the minstrel's harp.
This guy named Six Fingers is indeed a very good bard, and his harp skills have reached the pinnacle of the mortal world (one-star limit)
If this guy is thrown into Fengqi Land and listened to rumors for a few months, he might be able to reach two stars.
Fugate was very satisfied with this technique.
······
"How's the assessment for the knight reserve going?" Cripps Legenfend asked Diluc.
"Passed, this test is still very simple." Diluc said.
"Okay!" Krips Legenfend nodded with satisfaction, "Then let's work hard to practice as a knight and strive to become an official knight as soon as possible."
Crippus Legenfend did not have a good body when he was young, which prevented him from passing the selection to become a knight of the west wind.
He has always regarded it as a regret in his life.
Now that his son has successfully passed the reserve knight assessment of the Knights of the West Wind, he has fulfilled his dream.
Knight reserves, also known as knight squires, not only have to carry out various trainings, but also need to undertake various chores, such as brushing horses, cleaning stables, cleaning the knights, and the training ground.
Therefore, the work was very tedious, so as a new young master, Diluc was almost exhausted after completing the first day of work.
"I'm so tired." The other attendants were in a similar situation.
But Diluc's physique and talent are both excellent.
What is concretely demonstrated is that his recovery ability is very excellent.
While the other attendants were still unable to get up, he was already able to give himself extra training.
"Is this the crest of the Legenfend family? Why is it here?" Diluc saw his family's crest at a location and felt strange about it.
In response to the question of suppressing combat power, first of all, there is no suppression of combat power, because there are not many places where force is used in this new volume.
This is rationalization.
Example: Would you directly resurrect a person who doesn’t know his specific attitude and leave him in his prime?
Especially when you disrupt the other party's arrangement.
As for the problem of reducing intelligence, anyone who has read my books knows that I have been avoiding all kinds of problems of reducing intelligence. Whether it is the protagonist himself or passers-by, I will not deliberately reduce intelligence. What I want to create is a reasonable plot.
Instead of elevating the protagonist by belittling other original characters.
The Doctor is inherently smarter than the protagonist in the setting (the Doctor's brain was also developed by the intelligence development drug, but not by the treatment), and his scientific research ability is also stronger.
