"What's wrong, Mr. Zhongli?" Abedo asked, a hint of confusion in his eyes as he saw Zhongli stop.
"He's here." Zhongli looked at a young man not far away, wearing a green cloak, with short black hair and two small, gradually green braids hanging down at his temples, who was smiling at him.
"coming?"
Abedo looked ahead and spotted the young man as well. As the Son of Chalk, he took another step back.
A god, the other party is a god, and the other party is surrounded by wind elements, which means?!
The god who disappeared for nearly a thousand years, the wind god Barbatos, has reappeared in Mondstadt.
Now, Abedo suddenly realized why Mr. Zhongli said that there was no need to deliberately look for the Wind God, as he would come to him on his own.
It now seems that the seven gods may have a unique connection, just like how I could recognize Zhongli and Barbatos as gods at a glance.
"Oh dear, how rude of you to show up uninvited like this."
Barbatos, the god of wind, walked towards Zhongli. He looked at Abedo beside him and chuckled, "Son of Chalk, oh no, I should call you Abedo."
"Was it you who brought Morax, the Geo Archon, into Mondstadt?"
This is not an interrogation, but a simple inquiry.
But this was just an ordinary sentence, and for a moment Aberdo didn't know what to say.
Because it was indeed he who brought Zhongli into Mondstadt, and his identity was extremely special; he could tell at a glance whether the other party was a god or not.
But Barbatos's question made Abeddo feel as if he had betrayed Mondstadt.
"I need your help."
Zhongli spoke calmly, looking at Barbatos and saying, "My current identity is that of a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth, and my name is Zhongli. Please forgive me for coming uninvited."
Zhongli now needs Barbatos's help, so he is quite polite.
In the past, Zhongli would probably have ignored Barbatos when he arrived in Mondstadt, unless the other party took the initiative to show up and talk to him.
But Barbatos was different. When he heard that Zhongli had come to see him because he needed something, his eyes lit up and he said, "Oh?! You need something?! That's great! I thought you were still angry about that matter."
"I thought you'd finally lost your temper and wanted to beat me up. Just ask me for a favor, hahaha~"
For some reason, Barbatos was very happy at this moment. He had not dared to approach Zhongli since the beginning, for fear that the other party had come to seek revenge.
Because back then, he did something truly extraordinary for Mondstadt.
Afterwards, the story reached his ears, and Barbatos became very worried that the Rock God might suddenly appear in Mondstadt and beat him up.
Although the possibility is extremely small, it doesn't mean it's impossible.
Because of Zhongli's arrival, Barbatos awoke from his slumber, and the first thing he did upon waking was to rush to Mondstadt to see Zhongli.
Despite his fear, he was bound to greet his old friend who had come to Mondstadt. However, he never expected that the friend wasn't there to fight him, but rather to ask him for a favor.
Barbatos transformed into a gust of wind and quickly flew to Zhongli's side, reaching out to put his arm around Zhongli's shoulder, as if they were good buddies.
"…………"
Witnessing the meeting between the God of Wind and the God of Rock, Abedo's impression of "gods" quietly shattered a little.
Because gods are supposed to be majestic, and the seven rulers of the mortal world were the victors in the war between demons and gods.
The first generation of gods, whether it was the Great Kindness Tree King or the Thunder God, all displayed the wisdom and demeanor of gods.
But now, seeing Barbatos, the god of wind, looking so nonchalant, Abedo's emotions were quite complicated.
Barbatos, of course, was oblivious to Abedo's complex emotions. He put his arm around Zhongli's shoulder and smiled, "Since you are now a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth, and your name is Zhongli, right?"
"Actually, you know my identity. I am Wendy, the bard of Mondstadt."
"Abedo, don't call me Barbatos anymore, just call me Wendy."
Clearly, Wendy also intends to conceal her identity and does not intend to reveal her divine status.
Every god has an identity that walks among mortals, and Wendy is no exception, except that he has used this identity more than once.
And they always use this identity, and this has been the case for thousands of years.
"Yes." Abedo nodded, not refusing the wind god's request.
Zhongli looked at Wendy beside him, sighed with mixed feelings, and quietly removed the other's hand from his shoulder.
Knowing that Zhongli wasn't there to attack him, Wendy patted his chest and said confidently, "Speak, what is it? I'll assist you with almost anything I can do."
"But you can't say anything that's meant to make things difficult for me, otherwise even if you kill me, there's nothing I can do."
Wendy remained cautious, knowing that Zhong Li wouldn't have come looking for him unless he was in trouble.
He hopes the other person is "troublesome" but not particularly difficult, otherwise he might really have to reject them.
Wendy is very clear about some troubles that she can help with, but others that she should not get involved in.
As one of the longest-living of the Seven Rulers of the Mortal Realm, he also has his own set of rules.
Although he and Zhongli have a good relationship, there are still some things that cannot be touched.
Seeing Wendy's straightforwardness, Zhongli didn't keep him in suspense any longer. He looked at Wendy and said in a very calm tone, "The power of [Time]."
"what?"
Wendy froze. He blinked, looking at Zhongli's perfectly calm expression. He reached out and picked at his ear, asking cautiously, "Are you sure you didn't say something wrong?"
"........."
Zhongli looked at Wendy calmly, as if to say that he was not joking.
Because the power of [Time] is the main material of concentrated resin, without its existence, concentrated resin could not possibly be mass-produced.
P.S.: "Sorry, it's Saturday today. I've been busy all day, but I'm finally done. Ah... so much work!!!!"
Chapter 159 Wendy Joins the Group, the Four Gods Communicate!
"what?"
Wendy looked at Zhongli, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, as if to say, "Are you sure? This thing is someone's power."
You should know about this; it's not something you should touch. If you do, you'll invite disaster.
Wendy was puzzled; he even wanted to ask Zhongli if he was conscious.
But considering that they had something on her, Wendy fell silent for a moment, then asked in a different way, "Are you sure?"
"【Time】is very useful to me."
As he said this, Zhongli glanced at Abedo.
After receiving a signal from Zhongli, Abedo took out concentrated resin, which was given to him by the Coral Palace Heart Sea.
He has been studying this stuff ever since he obtained the concentrated resin, and now that he has figured it out, he wants to return it to the Coral Palace Heart Sea.
However, after experiencing a lot of things in Liyue, and with the remnant soul of Guizhong trapped in the Lock of the Mortal World.
To avoid any unforeseen circumstances, Abedo still "blackened" the concentrated resin, and after learning that Coral Palace Heart Sea was "in poor spirits".
He had just returned to his workshop in Mondstadt and made some spirit-boosting and sleep-aiding items for the Coral Palace's Heartsea.
These little gadgets are very useful; Abedo made quite a few similar things for the harp leader.
Unexpectedly, Coral Palace Heartsea in the group also wanted it. Later, after Keqing learned about the effects of this item, she also sent a bag containing a large amount of Mora, indicating that she wanted it too.
This made Aberdo somewhat embarrassed; were these things really that good?
However, now that Abedo has taken out the concentrated resin, Wendy's gaze is drawn to it. He stares at the concentrated resin with a strange look in his eyes.
Clearly, he seemed to know the wonders of this thing.
Zhong Li clearly noticed Wendy's gaze, and asked calmly, "You know about this?"
“No~” Wendy shrugged and spread her hands, “I don’t know anything about this thing, but I can sense that there is a bit of the power of time in it.”
"Well, how should I put it? I have a little bit of a relationship with Shi Guang, that is, with him."
Wendy pointed to the sky, then to himself. He looked at Zhongli and chuckled, "To be honest, I'm still quite surprised. How did you manage to insert [Time] into this?"
"Being able to turn [Time] into something edible is no simple matter."
Clearly, Wendy had misunderstood; he thought it was something Zhongli had made.
Although he found it strange that this ancient rock god would be so bold, after all, the [Power of Time] involved that person.
The seven rulers of the mortal realm, or rather, the current rulers, probably have no intention of involving the one above them.
Managing their subordinates is pretty much all they are responsible for.
“I didn’t make it.” Zhongli knew very well that it was useless to play tricks on Wendy. If he wanted to get her help, he had to be sincere first.
On the way to Mondstadt, Abedo had asked Su Hao about it at Zhongli's [instruction].
If you go to Mondstadt and actually meet Barbatos, the wind god, what should you do?
Su Hao's attitude towards this was, what else could he do? Of course, he'd add her to the group and ask about the whereabouts of [Time]!
Anyway, Raiden and the Great Tree King have already joined the chat group, so what's wrong with having another Anemo?! He's even going to bring the Geo Archon in later.
It was precisely because of Su Hao's words that Zhong Li was now completely uninhibited.
"Huh? Not you?"
Wendy blinked, his gaze returning to Abedo. Finally, he shook his head slightly, then asked with even greater confusion, "What's going on?"
Yes, now Wendy is confused. What's going on?
Although Abedo is a dangerous kid, he would never make such a thing, and where would he get the means to make it?
Time is not something that can be easily obtained.
Wendy could practically pat himself on the back and say that to obtain this thing, one's strength would need to be at least on par with a demon god.
Wendy was extremely curious, and he was just about to ask further questions.
Zhongli shook his head and looked at Wendy, saying, "I can't explain the details, but this substance is called concentrated resin."
"Its effect is very simple: when humans and gods consume it, they will recall pleasant things. When ordinary humans consume it, all their fatigue will be swept away, and they will be in excellent mental condition, able to continue working or doing other things."
"For example, if a demon or immortal consumes it, it can eliminate karmic obstacles and resist wear and tear."
