The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

Of course, it's time to start up the Fool's Mining Machine! This winter-produced tiller is powerful and efficient, requiring only three bowls of rice a day. There's no more cost-effective machine than this.

As for not going? Sure, let's first consider the illegal and disorderly things the Fatui did in Liyue; then consider their theft and counterfeiting of the Unbound Talisman; and finally, consider their unauthorized release of the Daedric Prince, preparing to use a portal to forcefully attack the Jade Pavilion...

All these things combined mean that Seven Stars could easily capture all the Fatui in Liyue and feed them to the fish.

Even just making them miners is considered giving the Ice God face.

"Attention everyone, the association has never seen anything like this before. It's best to work in pairs to avoid any unexpected situations!"

Seeing the little green figures in front of her looking eager to try, Catherine quickly gave them some instructions.

"Bye-bye! You guys team up, I'm going first!" As soon as Catherine finished speaking, she saw Ember's figure disappear into the dust and smoke.

“Miss Catherine, Senior Yu Jin…” Zhi Qiong couldn’t help but worry as she watched Yu Jin’s departing figure.

"Phew..." Catherine composed herself; the embers were still so unexpected.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ember, nothing should happen."

"It's not just 'should,' it's 'absolutely nothing will happen.'" Catherine smiled at Zhiqiong, thinking to herself.

……

Dihua Marsh is a large swamp and one of the border areas between Liyue and Mondstadt.

Although it is a swamp, compared to the swamps that Ember had seen before, Dihua Island is far more beautiful.

The reeds, their tufts of hair removed, swayed gently in the breeze. Occasionally, purple horsehair tufts dotted the reed beds, a sight that brought a sense of tranquility and joy.

"Sa!"

A strong gust of wind blew by, startling the white dew from the reeds.

Ember raced along the road. There was an official road in Dihua Marsh that led directly to Mondstadt, so that no one would get lost in this vast swamp where reeds grew as tall as a person.

Suddenly, a collapsed figure appeared on the deserted path in the distance, causing Yu Jin to slow down his running pace.

As he approached the figure, Ember looked closely and realized it was a Mondstadt person.

After looking around and examining the goods on the vehicle next to the man, Ember guessed that this man was probably a porter from some winery in Mondstadt.

The goods on the truck were all alcohol-related items.

"Is this the Sleeping Meteor Catherine mentioned?" Ember picked up the blue stone from the cart and scratched his head.

Is this truly a different world? The meteorites here are as shiny and lustrous as gemstones.

Unlike the border region, the meteorites that fell there were either huge iron lumps or all sorts of strange alien creatures.

"It should be."

Yu Jin looked at the fist-sized stone in his hand and felt that he had found the real deal.

This stone seems to carry the will of someone; that stubborn yet powerful consciousness radiates directly through the stone.

The people who were unconscious, as Catherine mentioned, were most likely those who came into contact with the meteorite and were affected by its consciousness.

"In that case..."

Ember lowered his center of gravity, gripped the meteorite he had picked up, and spread his arms, adopting a shot put posture.

"Fly for me!"

"boom!"

Bright blue light flashed from the sky again, but this time it was in the opposite direction from before.

The blue light flickered, rising higher and higher, then getting smaller and smaller, until it was no longer visible.

"That's right." Yu Jin nodded in satisfaction. His move could be described as mending the sky.

Although this sky is an illusion.

Yu Jin suddenly realized that he should try to wake up the people on Sky Island.

As for the reason...

Hey lady, is your projector broken and you want to get it fixed?

How about this reason? Or we could call Patch over; he'd definitely be good at these kinds of sophisticated gadgets.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that Patch could calculate the positions of the Supreme Will and the Dark Moon's cosmic deities right in front of Ember made Ember think he was capable of anything.

Although Ember couldn't understand the meaning of the data on the coordinates, such as "pulsar rotation period", "galaxy center distance", "pulsar distance to the deity in milliseconds", etc.

Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem like there's any rush? Yu Jin abandoned his previous idea and decided to let it rot for a while first!

Chapter 335 Astrology

2023-12-05

"Hey! Wake up, wake up!"

After throwing the fallen star fragments back to the Celestial Dragon, Ember squatted down to observe the mental state of the Mondstadt corpses.

To be honest, it's not good.

Yu Jin reached out and tapped the forehead of the unconscious person. His consciousness entered the person's body through his fingertips and saw the person's current dream.

It was a precipitous snow-capped mountain. Unlike the Longji Snow Mountain, this snow mountain was more "slender" and naturally steeper.

The cold wind blew through the mountains, and its severity was comparable to that of Longji Snow Mountain before the trees were planted.

The Mondstadt person who was unconscious in reality is currently halfway up the mountain.

He seemed dazed, his eyes unfocused, as he climbed towards the summit of the snow-capped mountain against the cold wind, determined to reach the top.

"An obsession with climbing mountains? That's rare."

Yu Jin was astonished to see this. He looked at the will contained within this fragment of starlight, which was extremely persistent in its pursuit of climbing the mountain.

"But no matter how persistent you are, you can't force someone to climb a mountain!" After a moment of reflection, Yu Jin began his work.

As his consciousness surged in, the once towering snow-capped mountain began to sink into the earth.

Then the climber halfway up the mountain found himself inexplicably at the summit. His already dazed look became even more confused.

Where did that mountain go? How did it shrink in the blink of an eye?

"Time to wake up after the hike!"

Ember's voice echoed from this dream, like a bucket of cold water poured over one's head, jolting them awake.

"call!"

Fritz awoke with a start from the ground, and then a hazy memory flooded his mind, sending chills down his spine.

He was just transporting goods from the Dawn Winery when he saw a shiny pebble on the road and picked it up out of curiosity. Little did he know that there was something wrong with the stone, which caused him to faint!

"Finally awake?" Yu Jin waved his hand in front of Fritz's eyes, bringing him back to his senses from the lingering fear.

“My name is Fritz… Thank you… Thank you, Mr. Ember!” Ember’s strange attire and peculiar behavior made him a household name in Mondstadt.

Just as Yu Jin was trying to recall something, he suddenly saw three figures approaching from a distance.

Two of them were familiar, Ying and Fischl, while the other was somewhat unfamiliar, wearing a large hat and adorned with star pendants.

Ember was certain that this guy must have come to Mondstadt after he left, because if there really was such a peculiar person in Mondstadt, he would definitely remember him.

"Fritz—, Ben told you to hurry back and deliver the goods!" Paimon's shout could be heard from afar.

It seems their group's goal was Fritz, but Ember beat them to it.

Upon hearing this, Fritz slapped his forehead, hurriedly picked up the scattered goods, and nodded to Ember, "Mr. Ember, let's have a drink together at Angel's Gift sometime."

After saying that, Fritz pushed the cart and jogged away.

"Let's see how it goes," Yu Jin muttered as he watched Fritz's retreating figure. Then he saw the three people in the distance approaching him.

"Let me introduce you?" Ember pointed to the woman in the big hat next to Ying and Fischl, raising an eyebrow as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Mona looked up at Ember. If her astrological robes were unconventional enough, then Ember was at least three times more unconventional!

"Mona is a very skilled astrologer. She's the one who calculated Fritz's location!" Paimon circled Mona a few times, enthusiastically introducing her.

“Astrologis Mona Megistus.” Mona adjusted her enormous sorcerer's hat and pronounced her full name with practiced ease.

"..."

"Just call her Mona." Oz, standing next to Fischl, was as dedicated as ever, acting as the off-site translator and commentator.

"Ember." Ember's name wasn't as long as Mona's. He looked at the three-person team and said, "Investigating shooting stars in the sky?"

"Indeed, the starless one that flows in the darkness has brought a curse to the earth, and I, the princess, and my companions are wandering between light and shadow because of it."

"Just as the senior said."

Fischl and Oz answered Ember's question in a coordinated manner.

"Is that so? In that case, you can take a break for a while." Upon hearing this, Yu Jin walked towards the Wangshu Inn in the distance.

"Why? Those people are all unconscious!" Paimon caught up and asked.

"It's alright. Fritz was like that just now, but I managed to wake him up."

"It was just a dream. Those meteorites were only a small part; the bigger ones are yet to come."

"We can get rid of the big one together then."

As Yu Jin walked, he explained.

After hearing what Ember said, Luminous and Paimon looked at Mona. As an outside helper they had invited, it was time for her to play her role!

"Yes, just as Ember said, those meteorites are only a small part of a person's destiny. The real destiny star is still in the sky."

Mona produced a water divination plate in her hand. She manipulated it a few times according to the information she already had and obtained the same information as Ember.

This made Mona take a closer look at Ember. He came to the same conclusion as her so easily. Could he also be an astrologer?

"See? You still don't believe me."

Seeing this, Yu Jin muttered a few sarcastic remarks. Had he, Yu Jin, ever lied to anyone?

“No, I have always believed in my senior!” Fischl waved his hand and said.

"I was just testing Mona's skills! Right, Luminous!" Paimon used her special move, chuckling foolishly!
