I'm in the Teyvat running group

After a quick glance at Xiaogong's stats, it was clear that as a sixth-ring ranger, Xiaogong was not weak. Moreover, the two Destiny Constellations he had retrieved were currently both seven-colored. If he taught him properly in the future, he could at least retrieve four or five seven-colored Destiny Constellations, and advancing to Legendary status would be possible.

If she's lucky, she could even reach the level of Kaiyang Star, which is the peak of the Legendary realm, without much trouble, but that would most likely be her limit.

The good thing about Teyvat is that humanity does have the potential to reach a level that many people can hardly imagine.

The downside is that, in most cases, it is indeed a world where "one is born with a special destiny," because bloodline and social status truly determine one's standing in this world.

Even a powerful human war god like Mavica could not reach the level of a ruling god without the aid of the sacred fire, which is the original power of the fire demon god Hebrim.

Tsukihime's foundation is too good. If she really is a "doll" bestowed by the Goddess of the White Night, it already means that she has the potential to become a god...

However, that's not important; I suppose Yoru no Miyako isn't someone who cares much about these things.

The group walked along the path around the furnace core for nearly twenty minutes before finally reaching the top layer of the furnace core and seeing the relevant formation.

"Hmm...it really is time for repairs." After observing the formation for a while, Yunxiu quickly found the damaged areas and places that needed maintenance, as well as some interesting things.

"The formation here has been tampered with. If it operates at high frequency for a long time, it will lead to a core leak." Yunxiu pointed to a spot on the formation's operation diagram and asked, "Which engineer was responsible for the repairs here?"

"Huh...?" Wan Ye seemed to have not thought of this either. He walked to the corner of the room, opened a drawer, and searched for a while before finding the relevant file.

"Let me see. This part was last repaired twenty-seven years ago by a Sumeru scholar named Zandik."

"Zandik!" The puppet immediately began to grit its teeth.

"Miss Puppet, is there a problem?"

“You may not have heard of the name Zandik, but you should know it if you hear another name.” Yunxiu took the document, flipped through a few pages, and finished reading all his repair records.

Having confirmed that there was another location repaired by Zandik, Yunxiu closed the file and said, "Zandik is none other than the 'Doctor,' the executor of the Fools."

"So it was him!" Wan Ye was shocked. Even though the doctor was gone, the news still shocked him greatly. He looked at the two men's not-so-pleasant expressions and said with a hint of pleading, "Can it be repaired? If you need any compensation, please let me know and I will try my best to meet your needs."

“It will be very troublesome to repair,” Yunxiu said. “Moreover, I am sure that Inazuma does not have many of the resources. If we also have to find the materials, the cost will be very high.”

"It's very troublesome." The puppet nodded as well.

Wan Ye's expression turned grim, but as expected of the current head of the Thunder Five Lineages, he quickly calmed down and looked at Yun Xiu and the puppet, saying decisively, "Xiu! Whatever your requests, the Thunder Five Lineages will certainly fulfill them. Afterwards, I will report to Lord Thunder God and then resolve the issue through diplomatic means with Zhi Dong!"

Although he didn't lose his family and become a ronin in this life, Manyo is still a decisive, ruthless, and taciturn person...

No wonder he's not even twenty years old yet, but he's already the person in charge of Mikage Roshin...

Yunxiu took out the Dragon Scale Staff and the dragon scale of the Thunder Dragon King and handed them to Wanye, saying, "Please help me fuse this dragon scale onto the magic array. As for the materials to repair the magic array, I can provide them."

"Thank you very much." Wan Ye took the dragon scale staff and looked at the puppet.

The puppet's face was quite ugly, but it didn't ask for anything. Instead, it looked at Yunxiu seriously and said, "I can help you solve this problem for free, but you need to do something for me. I am willing to transfer the Thunder Five Family's request to you this time."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Adding to the information you mentioned before, help me obtain this Heart of God. I need it to escape the Fools," the puppet said sadly. "I always thought the rumors about the 'Doctor' weren't entirely true, but today I've seen it for myself."

She paused, stroked her "Pronia" before continuing, "My relationship with the Queen is not irreconcilable, and I do not wish to remain in this environment any longer."

“Hmm…Okay, I agree.” Yunxiu popped out a contract, quickly wrote line after line of text, and then handed the contract to the puppet, saying, “But there is an additional clause: after leaving the Fatui, you must join the Liyue faction and serve me for three years in the future war against the Abyss.”

"The same conditions as Arecino... Fine." The puppet didn't think for long before quickly extending a trace of its elemental imprint and engraving it on the contract: "The contract is complete... Those who break their word shall be punished by the Devouring Rock."

"I didn't expect you to say that."

"What's so strange about that? I was once favored by the King of Rock."

A robot from Fontaine went to Winter Solstice as an executor, received the Emperor's favor, and is now carrying out a mission in Inazuma...

After making a brief complaint, Yunxiu put away the contract. Since there were no outsiders here, he simply dispelled the transformation spell with Xiaogong and looked at Wanye, saying, "Then I'll trouble Patriarch Wanye to help Miss Xiaogong find two more weapons as payment."

"That's all?" Wan Ye asked in surprise. "Mr. Yun, don't you want more? Your two requests are not difficult for Yu Yinglu Xin."

"That's enough."

"OK……"

“Wait, there’s one more thing,” Yunxiu stopped Wanye and asked, “I also want to know where the ‘Youlezhai’ is enshrined in the heart of the Imperial Shadow’s furnace.”

"You mean 'Yurakusai'?" Upon hearing this, Wan Ye surprisingly revealed a rather amusing smile. "You should be able to see it soon after you finish repairing it."

"Ok?"

“Yes.” Wanye then looked at Xiaogong and said, “Then I’ll trouble Miss Xiaogong to come with me to make a selection.”

"Alright..." Yunxiu looked at the puppet helplessly: "Should we each repair half? Or..."

"If you're so useless, you can give everything to me," the puppet said coldly.

"Am I supposed to say 'Please, Mr. Yunxiu'? That's disgusting."

Chapter 138 Energetic Girl Suppresses the Fox Demon (Second Update on Wednesday!)

Although she was already full of sarcastic remarks shortly after meeting the puppet, Yunxiu still didn't let the puppet repair the magic array alone.

The materials related to space are mostly from high-level abyssal monsters, and Yunxiu has a lot of such materials on him—after all, he still has to create a large storage demiplane every now and then.

So he kept all the materials related to these major battles, and so far he has made about ten large storage bags. Apart from giving one to each of the girls around him, he gave the rest to Sugar so that she could sell them through new channels.

These things he personally crafted are highly sought-after items on the market. They are almost always bought up by top experts and organizations from various countries as soon as they appear. This alone brings Sugar more than a billion in revenue every year. This is also why, apart from equipment, Yunxiu himself is the poorest person around him...

After distributing some materials to the puppets, the two of them quickly began repairing the hidden dangers left by the doctor, and also maintained the related magic arrays.

Both were masters of magic arrays and spells, but their systems were completely different.

Yunxiu's spell system comes from the D&D rulebook, combined with the local spell system of Teyvat, and has now developed into his own unique product, and has even begun to gradually form his own mage system in Teyvat.

The puppet's magic system comes from Alan and René, two super geniuses from Fontaine. They combined mathematics, astrology, and some forbidden knowledge to deduce the "world" and developed the magic system of the Narcissus Cross Academy based on it.

This is likely one of the most promising spell systems in Teyvat at present. At least in Yunxiu's opinion, its future potential is no less than that of the dragon race's pheromone system, and it may even surpass it in terms of scalability.

This is also why he wants to obtain Alan and Rene's 'legacy'.

At least once you understand the world, your understanding of the world itself will definitely be enhanced.

Watching Yunxiu rapidly cast runes, the puppet's little face showed surprise. In her understanding and from what she had heard, Yunxiu was indeed very powerful, but her magical skills were not so profound.

Even after seeing the runes on Arecino's Soul-Nourishing Jade and Yunxiu's deciphering of the blueprint yesterday, the puppet still didn't realize where Yunxiu's greatest strength lay.

In terms of spell development and research, with the help of [Comprehensive Understanding] and [Illumination of All Laws], Yunxiu's intelligence is estimated to be a full 13×2+4, which is a positive modifier of 30!

That is, a full 70 points, which is almost more than most legendary powerhouses!

In his eyes, the vast majority of spells below the legendary level have no secrets!

It's just that due to the limitations of his legendary status, he couldn't use legendary spells; otherwise, his first priority would definitely have been to find a way to save Shen He...

Therefore, the Yuying Furnace Core, which in most cases does not exceed the level of a ninth-ring spell array, is hardly a secret to Yunxiu.

The greatest significance of the puppet's magic, which relies on the existence of "World Style", is that it has a very deep understanding of the laws of Teyvat itself, making the entire magic circle more harmonious and perfect.

Even the runes that Yunxiu injected, under the "world-style" transformation, became more compatible with the Yuying Furnace Core Formation, and there was even a feeling that it would elevate this great formation to a legendary level.

"This is the 'World Style'?" Yunxiu asked curiously, "Are you using this driving spell?"

"Knowledge is the foundation of 'World-Style,' and magic is its outward manifestation."

While quickly searching for information about the magic circle, the puppet said, "If you want him, complete your deal with me as soon as possible."

"Uh...of course I know."

It seems unlikely that you can easily trick her into giving it to you...

Although it was indeed very troublesome, with the combined efforts of the two great sorcerers, the entire magic circle was quickly repaired.

Wan Ye returned with Xiao Gong, who had already chosen the equipment. Then, looking at Yun Xiu, he placed the Dragon Scale Staff and the Thunder Dragon Scale directly into the center of the magic circle.

Soon, the entire magic array was operating at full capacity!

The massive Shadow Furnace erupted with a series of roars, suppressing the staff and dragon scales together. Streams of energy surged from the core of the Demon God, pouring directly into the dragon scale staff.

The enormous dragon scale was gradually broken down under the influence of energy, and then condensed into a small piece under another magic array, which was then embedded in the dragon scale staff. Subsequently, another huge magic array poured in a large amount of energy.

There were none of the auspicious clouds flying together, dragon-shaped phantoms, energy backlash, or other various scenes that Yunxiu had imagined. It was just a simple infusion of enormous energy that rushed in directly and powerfully!

The Dragon Scale Staff emitted a loud creaking sound under the immense energy and refining process, but the sound stopped after only a few minutes. The entire staff was completed and sent outside the magic array by a beam of light.

Wan Ye picked up the staff, examined it carefully, and then returned it to Yun Xiu, saying, "I have fulfilled my mission!"

Yunxiu took it, added lightning element dragon scales, increased the intelligence bonus to +6, and also brought a new trait.

[Blessing of the Thunder Dragon]: Reduces all your elemental energy consumption by 20% and increases elemental energy regeneration speed by 100%.

Quite an impressive skill!

The reduced elemental energy consumption is certainly very important for Yunxiu right now. Although he can increase his damage several times by charging up tens of thousands of energy points at once, the problem is that he can only cast two or three spells at most before running out of energy...

If he were to cast a normal upgrade spell, he could fire dozens of shots with his elemental energy, but the damage would be insufficient.

Although 20% may not seem like much, it's important to know that after Yunxiu's Intelligence reaches +14, her base elemental energy reaches a whopping 22905 points, and with the added Fire Constellation, it reaches 54972 points.

With this feature, it's equivalent to having about 11,000 more elemental energy than before, enough to cast a dozen or so ninth-ring spells. Moreover, this isn't a reduction in the casting cost of the Unrestricted Talisman, but a reduction in the consumption of all elemental energy.

This also means that even when driven by a constellation, the effect can be reduced.

As for the 100% increase in elemental energy recovery speed, it's equivalent to reducing an eight-hour long rest to four hours, which is quite significant in high-intensity battles.

After receiving the Dragon Scale Staff, Yunxiu couldn't help but ask curiously, "Wasn't it said that I would see 'Youlezhai' after I finished repairing it?"

“Of course,” Wan Ye said with a smile. “Look, he’s here.”

Suddenly, a transparent, almost invisible fox phantom appeared in the center of the magic circle.

With the slightest movement, it absorbed all the remaining energy, then spat out a bunch of strange residue, which turned into a wisp of green smoke and landed on a fox statue in the shrine.

"Cough cough cough... This time it was a bit too strong..."

The fox statue was making strange noises!

"Oh? You're Lord Youlezhai?" Yunxiu asked, looking at the fox statue. "Why did it turn out like this?"

"You brat, I... I'm just inconvenient to move around."

"Is he brewing some terrible conspiracy?!" Xiaogong jumped up and said, "He looks like a major villain!"

"Cough cough cough cough cough!" The voice seemed to be choked by Xiaogong's words and said with a hint of anger, "When I was still alive, I was a powerful and influential fox demon! The current Eightfold Divine Child is still my junior!"

"Oh? Are you no longer alive?"
