In Teyvat, it all begins with rescuing the grass god.

"To put it lightly."

Dixia shook her head.

However, when she thought of that group of thirty people who were only interested in profit, she didn't say anything more.

This is the consequence of outsourcing military force.

Only the thirty-man guards protecting the Chancellery were somewhat decent; the guards in other areas were the kind who would rather slack off than actually do their jobs.

There are such people guarding Sumeru City.

Just as Rod said, there are plenty of ways to enter Sumeru City. As long as you can pass through the checkpoint of Kavan Station smoothly and don't rush into Sumeru City and attract the attention of the Order of the Church, there should be no problem.

That concludes the discussion on entering the city.

Dixia then asked, "Should I contact some more mercenary groups? Hmm, the kind that worship the Red King like Rahman. There are many such mercenary groups in the desert."

"Not yet."

Rhodes shook his head: "The news about the Crimson King's envoy has already been spread. Those who want to come will come naturally, and those who don't want to come won't come willingly even if you force them. It's a waste of time and there's also the risk of them turning against you."

"Oh, well, you decide what to do then."

Once everything was clear, Dixia didn't say anything else, only saying, "Just tell me when you need my help."

"Ah."

Rhodes nodded, then scratched his head, saying apologetically, "Sorry, I was the one who said you should tell me if anything happened, but now it's the other way around."

"Tch, when did you become so pretentious?"

Seeing Rhodes's expression, Dixia burst out laughing and punched him on the shoulder: "We're like family."

"Hehe, that's true."

Rhodes smiled, ignoring Rahman who was locked in the room deep in thought, and left with Desia, chatting and laughing, continuing to wait for other news.

My friend wrote this book; he excels at writing the kind of stuff everyone loves to read. He's a master at battling censorship for years—those who know, know.

Chapter 139 Revealing the 'Secret'

I don't know if it was because news of Rahman's arrival got out.

While this guy was still hesitating about whether to help Rhodes, the desert mercenary groups that had been keeping a low profile before started arriving in Aru Village one after another.

Some of them were very polite, while others were extremely rude.

Just as Rod thought.

Someone actually tried to lure him out of Aru Village and then kidnap him.

The result, of course, goes without saying.

With Rhodes' current strength, he doesn't even need to use elemental power to beat these mercenaries, who don't even have the Eye of God, to a pulp.

The fate of these mercenaries who attempted to capture people by violence is self-evident.

Rod took them all to Aru Village and dumped all the hardest and most tiring work on them.

As for the other mercenary groups...

Intimidated by the military might of Rhodes and Aru Village, they did not refuse Rhodes's 'invitation' and had no choice but to accept Candice's employment to come to Aru Village to help with the new construction.

This turmoil has just ended.

Rahman also came to his senses and agreed to join forces against the Church.

He also made a request.

That means he still wants to stay in Aru Village for a while.

As for the reason.

He didn't say.

He only said one thing: he just wanted to stay here and expose the conspiracy of the Grass God's lackeys.

Rod did not refuse.

Rahman was allowed to send his men back to the desert and wander around the village as he pleased, looking at whatever he wanted, while Rhodes himself enrolled in Farusan's class.

This is a new hobby that Rod has recently developed.

Although Bishop Farusan teaches the Epistemological school of thought, classical mechanical science is also one of her specialties. Rhodes thought that while learning about Epistemology, he could also learn about mechanical science.

Of course.

Farusan's courses are not taught one-on-one.

No one in Aru Village has ever systematically studied the knowledge of the Epistemological School, so even a high-achieving student like Kavi has to start from scratch.

In addition, there were Cole and some other children in the village who had gone through the early stages of education.

Farusan's small class quickly grew to more than a dozen students, ranging from the oldest to the youngest.

This made her extremely excited, as she hadn't taught students for many years.

only.

The imagined scene of students loving to learn did not materialize.

After a few classes...

Apart from Kavi, who could barely muster the energy to listen to the lesson, everyone else couldn't help but yawn incessantly, and even a studious child like Cole looked drowsy.

This sudden blow left Farusan quite disappointed.

Judging from her expression, if there weren't several children around, she probably would have thrown down her pointer and gotten angry.

"senior."

Your course is truly...

After thinking for a long time, Rhodes finally used the phrase: "unrestrained imagination".

"what do you mean?"

Already in a bad mood, Farusan became even angrier, raising an eyebrow and saying, "You mean the lessons I teach are exaggerated and impractical?"

"no."

Rod said with a headache, "It's because you used too many mechanical engineering terms in your lecture, senior."

The knowledge of the epistemological school and the terminology of institutional studies are mixed together.

This is the characteristic of Farusan's lectures.

But that's the problem.

The mechanical knowledge that Farusin used in her lectures was basically the classical mechanical knowledge that she had pioneered.

Although this school of thought was one of the compulsory courses of the Mysterious Theory School back then.

But now it has become an elective course, and very few students study it specifically.

in other words.

Of the students present, only Kavi, a brilliant student with a background in mechanical science, could barely understand it. The rest, including Rhodes, basically felt like they were listening to gibberish.

This also disappointed Rhodes.

He originally came here to study, because that's the kind of knowledge he's interested in.

However, the vast majority of what Fiona talked about was epistemological knowledge.

If the teaching method is normal, it's fine. Rhodes can treat it as learning new knowledge. Anyway, he has already learned some knowledge of the epistemological school, so he can treat it as consolidating his knowledge level.

The problem is that Farusian's teaching method from a hundred years ago is simply too obscure and difficult to understand.

Can't understand!

I can't understand it at all!

While scratching his head and cheeks in frustration.

Rod could only try to persuade Farussan to change her teaching method.

"It's not easy to exchange."

Farusian didn't continue to be angry at the suggestion to change the teaching method; instead, she sighed heavily.

She hasn't taught a student in a hundred years.

The teaching methods at the Academy of Educational Sciences are now completely different from before.

At that time, the study of classical mechanisms in the Church was not yet mature.

Therefore, the study of mechanical symbols by the Zhilun school and the mechanical science of the Miaolun school are studied together.

It was during that time that Farussen developed this teaching habit.

However, as the mechanical science of the modern school of thought became more and more sophisticated, the teaching of the schools of thought of knowledge and the school of thought of thought became more and more clearly defined. Until now, the teaching of the two major schools has evolved to the point where they do not interfere with each other, just like other schools of thought.

Knowing it was impossible to persuade Fiona to switch to the school of subtle teachings.

After pondering for a while, Rod suggested, "Why don't you change the course to teach the basics of the Mysticism School first, so that everyone is familiar with your technical terms before learning the basics? It will be much easier than it is now."

"It can only be the."

After a moment's hesitation, Farusan sighed and agreed.

Having said that,

Rod took out a few toy design drawings: "Senior, I have a few design drawings here that I drew in my spare time. Could you please give me some pointers?"

These drawings depict the structure and gameplay of educational toys.

Rhodes drew it from memory.

Simple structure, complex gameplay.
