40. Chapter 40, It’s the boss


Chapter 40: The boss is gone

Diluc took the family crest in his hand and wiped it on his training uniform.

"It is indeed the family crest of my Legenfund family. Was it left by other family members?"

"Forget it, don't think about it, finish your training and go to rest early." Diluc put the badge away and put it with his Eye of God, then picked up the big sword and started training.

Diluc was indeed very talented. With a heavy sword, or a training sword that was like a door panel for training, other untrained people would have to rest after swinging it dozens of times.

But as a boy, Diluc could swing it nearly a hundred times in a short period of time, and he only needed a short rest before he could swing the huge training sword again.

"You're really talented, aren't you?" Fugate said while holding the grape juice.

"It's true that he has outstanding talent, much better than Laifen back then." Hetara also picked up the grape juice and said.

Leifen is Hetara's husband, and his full name is Sleifen Legenfend.

The former legendary knight of Mondstadt (LV75+).

Hmm~ In Fugate's eyes, he was just a freeloader. If it weren't for Hetara's help back then, he got the Blood Moon Breathing Technique, several brain development medicines, and also underwent brain development treatment.

This guy only has LV50+ life at most.

After all, it would be too slow to break through without the Eye of God. Mortals have their limits after all.

Slaifen was killed by the demon dragon when he was fighting against it, but he took revenge on himself. At the last moment, he used his sword energy to cut off the demon dragon's head.

It can only be said that he is worthy of being a Mondstadt, and has a tradition of causing dragon disasters.

The two of them were not far from Diluc who was training, but Diluc seemed to be unable to see the two of them who were drinking grape juice.

"The perfect sword technique is not suitable for him." Fugate observed for a while and said, "You may need to create a sword technique that suits him."

"Hmm~" Hetara nodded, "This is not a difficult thing."

After marrying Sleifen, Hetara also learned the swordsmanship inherited from the Legenfund family.

"It seems that the family's inherited swordsmanship has been lost now." Hertara said with emotion, "It seems that the Legenfund family has not been living well in these years."

"Although it is already a leading presence in business, it is only limited to business." Fugate said.

In the world of Teyvat, although commerce is also very important, the world of Teyvat is after all a world of 'high demons'. Compared with money, force is more important.

After Baanka, Fugate's apprentice, became the richest man in Xumi, the situation he faced was not ordinary.

If he hadn't been a powerful original god himself, his position as the richest man in Xumi would not have been stable at all.

There was even a time when Baanka was assassinated by LV60+ assassins several times in a row because of his revenge on other merchants and chambers of commerce who acted unconventionally. Many of the masters of the thirty-man group who protected him died.

Although the assassins were finally solved, Baanca had to give up growing his business, and then began to do charity under the guidance of Fugate, and in the name of charity, he attracted many powerful people in the Gilded Brigade. Strong.

In this way, Baanka could live out his old age smoothly, even though he still died in the forest king's labyrinth in his later years.

"Then you can have fun with your juniors. I'm going to bed first." Fugate said.

"Teacher has become more like a human being." Hetara sighed, and then disappeared.

Her body is a projection created with psychic energy, and the anchor point is on the family crest that Diluc picked up.

Only one sentence was left.

"Speaking of the divination, it is clear that there are still people in Loefart's house, but why can't they be found in Mondstadt?"

On the other hand, Diluc finally finished his extra training.

Returned to the dormitory to sleep.

Diluc seemed to hear a chuckle while sleeping, and then appeared under a green shade.

A girl? Appeared in front of Diluc, and then the girl? After saying some basic sword skills, he slashed at Diluc with a two-handed sword.

Diluc didn't know when a big sword also appeared in his hand.

Then Diluc waved his sword and resisted.

But his swordsmanship is obviously better than that of the girl? His swordsmanship is much worse.

A girl with "Wind Swordsmanship"? He continued, and then slashed with sword wind. Diluc didn't know how he persisted.

A girl named "Lowfat, Noble, Wind Sword Technique"? continued.

Then the girl's sword seemed to be used as a one-handed sword. This time it was a quick attack, and it became more difficult for Diluc to parry.

The last girl? He left a sentence: "The foundation is too poor." Then the girl? Disappeared.

When Diluc woke up the next morning, he found himself in a cold sweat.

"Really, how could I have such a dream?" Diluc complained.

"But..." Diluc recalled the many swordsmanship he had learned in his dreams, and the swordsmanship became increasingly clear.

"What is going on with these three swordsmanships: Basic Swordsmanship, Wild Wind Swordsmanship, and Loefat, Noble, and Wind Swordsmanship? Who is that girl? She seems to have been seen somewhere."

After finishing his work for the next day, Diluc fell asleep again.

He followed the guidance of the light and saw the girl again? This time the girl seemed quite disappointed with his talent, so she started teaching other things.

"What is this, alchemy?" Diluc said with some discomfort, covering his head.

"There are really a lot of materials. Is this just a potion? [Fugate Advanced Concentration Potion]? Permanently improves people's concentration? Is there really such a thing?"

"Hmm! My head hurts even more."

In the next few months, Diluc would see the girl in his dreams every one or two weeks.

The girl seemed very troubled by Diluc's lack of understanding.

Xumi, in the sixth level manor.

"Oh~ Really, I should have thought that the consequences of marrying into a knight family would be to turn my offspring into savage gorillas. That guy's physical talent is good, but his spiritual talent is really not good either." Hetara grabbed it. After Xia Mian's milk tea, he couldn't help but say.

Xia Mian was not annoyed and asked Robot 233 to make himself another cup.

Thanks to the machine soul, even five hundred years later, Robot 233 is still as clean as new.

"Speaking of which, is it okay for you to come out like this?" Xia Mian said.

"It's okay. Ever since the Tree King moved in, I have had support. Even if I don't enter the Tree King's divine domain, I can still gain the power to support my own free movement." Hetara said.

"It's great. I didn't expect that everyone would be able to get together hundreds of years later."

"Speaking of which, things are better for you and your mentor. You are still alive and well." Hetara said with emotion.

"After all, the technology is not very mature. I was able to successfully transform it, thanks to the fact that I am a Tinale person." Sharmian said, "I also inherited the power of Hermanubis among the Tinale people."


In the dark disaster, many Tinale and the warriors of the Palace of Silence merged with the power of Hermanubis, and many of them disappeared into the dark beast tide. among.

According to what Shamian learned, even in the Palace of Silence, there are only one or two copies of the relatively complete power of Hermanubis left.

Anyway, there are not many left, and the Tinale people are even more miserable.

When Shamian went to meet the leader of this generation of the Tinale people, he learned that the Tinale people no longer inherited the power of Hermanubis to this generation.

In the end, it was Charmian who gathered a portion of the power of Hermanubis and sent it to the Tinale people, so that the inheritance of the power of Hermanubis among the Tinale people was not interrupted.

Well~ Charmian is able to condense a complete essence of the power of Hermanubis every hundred years.

Charmian himself also developed technology that could recreate the essence into the power of Hermanubis.

"Didn't the instructor return to Xumi some time ago? Why didn't anyone stop?"

"The guy... took the gramophone and a few vinyl discs and ran away."

Speaking of this, even Charmian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The current Fugate was very different from the serious and serious mentor/husband in their impressions, who was either studying or doing experiments. You must know that when Fugate was traveling around several countries in his old age, he would never let go of his books, and he would never forget to study and research while traveling.

It's not like he is now, like a naughty child who likes to have fun. It doesn't seem right to say that. Most of the time, he is more like a salted fish, and he only becomes lively occasionally.

"It seems that the mentor caused quite a stir in Liyue, otherwise he wouldn't have returned to Xumi so quickly." Hetara's astrology is at its peak, and Fugate didn't cover it up deliberately, so She could clearly figure out what Fugate had done.

"That guy... I really don't know what to say." Shamian shook his head.

It got dark soon.

"I'm going to teach the younger generations of the family. Shamian, you can do your own business." Hetara disappeared, and Shamian was left alone in the Sixth Level Manor.

Back to a month ago, Fugate, who was not in a hurry to take office, was still visiting Liyue Port.

As a result, I happened to meet an old friend who I met more than 600 years ago.

"Sir, have we met before somewhere?" Yeyang looked confused, but it was Gan Yu who asked.

"My sincere greetings to you, Miss Gan Yu, I am Fugate. Well, if there is no difference, we should have met more than 660 years ago." Fugate said

The orderly had a headache, and the boss seemed to be sick again.

"Oh~ I seem to have some impression." Gan Yu finally remembered something, "Are you the alchemist master?"

"Exactly." Fugate smiled and nodded. "You have such good eyesight. I was not as young as I am now."

When we first met, Fugate was already very old.

"You can still see some of it, and you seem to have gotten a lot taller." Gan Yu said.

Then the two started chatting.

The orderly looked confused, and the secretaries of Yuehai Pavilion behind Gan Yu also looked confused. Then the orderly felt that things were getting a little serious, and then urgently notified the fool under the executive officer "Rich Man" who was executing some plans. All companies.

Then there was nothing more. After Fugate's information was leaked, he didn't care much about it, but many wealthy merchant families and warlock families in Liyue were going crazy if they wanted to live forever.

The fools who ran the Northland Bank pinched their noses and hurriedly sent this plague god away.

Later, those warlock families did send people to attack the fleet of fools escorting Fugate, but they were easily solved by the fools escorting Fugate.

It's not that these people are mediocre, the main reason is that these fools are very unreasonable under the blessing of Fugate's Six Water Magic Technique.

Fugate's six-water magical technique can bless thirty-six people almost permanently. During the period of being blessed by Fugate, these thirty-six people can completely ignore the side effects of the evil eye. After the burst of strength, they are almost Equivalent to thirty-six original gods.

And the most important thing is that Six Water Magic can also inflict negative status on the opponent. In a real fight, with one plus and one minus, those people will die not to mention how fast they will die.

All I can say is that it is really cruel.

These simple-minded soldiers immediately became the supporters of Colonel Fugate.

These warriors are not debt handlers. Because of the special nature of their work (agents), debt handlers have a relatively high level of evil eye, and the backlash on the body is much smaller.

The evil eyes held by these warriors consume a lot of life force, and the life force consumption is better than those of the Erling weapon users of the Gilded Brigade.

But it's not much better. With Fugate's power, they can use the evil eye without damage, which is enough to make them love Fugate.

Then they quickly sent Fugate back to Sumeru.

In fact, Fugate has always wanted to say that there is no need to be so anxious, but unfortunately these guys really don't listen at all...

······

Fugate is in the boat, currently on its way to Hearth House.

The Hearth House is a courtyard located deep in the mountains of Li Fei District. It is run by the current [servant] Kujavina. Fugate doesn't know much about this person.

All I know is that this guy's reputation is somewhat polarizing.

But this is not Fugate's business. He chose Fireplace House simply because it was very close to Xumi.

As for why he didn't choose the [Fools' Branch] in Xumi, it was naturally because the executives were worried about him.

Of the other options given, the Hearth House was the one that best met Fugate's requirements.

More importantly, the Hearth House is an organization under the jurisdiction of [Fools' Crowd], not [Fools' Crowd] itself, so it is relatively more independent.

Once he joins, he becomes the number two person, and he also has the power to control the number one person [servant] Kujavina.

emmm can be said to be extremely powerful.

However, this naturally has certain shortcomings. For example, after Fugate arrived in Fontaine, he was blocked by people sent by Kujiawina.

He was invited directly to the Hearth House. Originally, Fugate had thought of going to Fontaine City to eat and drink before going to the Hearth House.

The plan was immediately interrupted.

"What a troublesome guy." Fugate was a little unhappy with [Servant] Kujavina.

The weeks of travel were quickly over.

One night, when Fugate had just turned overland, the orderly said, "Sir, you can already see the [Hearth House] from here."

"Hmm~ Is that over there?" Fugate touched his chin and pointed in one direction.

The orderly was stunned for a moment and said: "It seems to be over there."

"Then let's continue to linger for a few days."

Fugate could sense that two very powerful auras were fighting there.

"Did Kujavina get into a fight with the Fontaines? It doesn't seem like they have the aura of the Fontaines." Fugate muttered a few words and stopped paying attention.

In the middle of the night, Fugate was stunned.

"The winner is determined? It seems that Kujiawina's breath is gone. Is this guy so inferior?" Fugate couldn't help but complain.

Then Fugate went to bed. An unknown colleague and superior could not compare with Fugate's emphasis on sleep.

After all, sleeping, the ultimate enjoyment of relaxing the body and mind, only began to be enjoyed again after Fugate was resurrected. He had no time to allocate time to sleeping before he died.

Death to resurrection is not considered sleep. That state is even more awake than when you have a physical body.

However, Fugate was somewhat hesitant about whether he should continue to serve.

After all, the top one seems to be dead, and it would be a bit embarrassing if he, the second-in-command, goes away. And with the intensity of the battle, if he goes there, he will definitely be beaten.

The executive of the Fools, no matter how weak he is, will still have a strength of LV80+. If he can beat a person of this strength to his knees, it would be terrible if he met him.

But what should be avoided is still inescapable.

After three days of waiting, I still haven't arrived at the Hearth House.

"Colonel [Zhu], this is an order from Mr. General." A debt handler handed a roll of parchment to Fugate.

"Really." Fugate shook his head and took the order, "There is no way to escape now."

[It is known that the former 'servant' Kujavina was killed by Peluvili, a child adopted by Hearth House. Colonel 'Zhu' is now invited to go to 'Hearth House' to arrest 'Peluvili']
< br>

"Well, forget about acting then." Fugate muttered.

"Boss, isn't it good to say it like this?" The orderly couldn't help but interject, after all, he hadn't left yet.

Along the way, the orderly was completely conquered by Fugate. Although he did not directly become a die-hard loyalist, he also had general loyalty.

"It's okay, they will know it if they know it." Fugate said sadly, "Anyway, I can't defeat enemies at the executive level. I can only be an instructor and a gangster assisting."

With that said, Fugate was no longer wasting time.

He turned into a stream of water vapor and quickly headed towards the Hearth House.

"Oh~ It's really a scene of ruins." Fugate saw the huge ruins and felt a little incredible. The battle scene was a bit too exaggerated.

Well~ after all, according to Fugate's understanding, the Hearth House is a very large courtyard, which contains not only dozens of training grounds, a large number of dormitories, but also warehouses, gardens, etc.

Especially the headquarters of Hearth House, there are additional guards, instructors and [servants] attendants.
