People in Mondstadt, starting to develop black technology

Ke Li looked at the cakes that appeared out of thin air in amazement and said excitedly: "Grandma Ping, you can do magic too!"

"Haha, this is not magic, it's a magic." Grandma Ping poured tea for the others and looked at Shen Qin, "Young friend Shen Qin should have known my identity a long time ago, right?"

Shen Qin nodded and admitted: "Yes, I came here for the immortal method of the True Lord."

"Oh? Grandma, I have never revealed my identity to outsiders. How did you know this?"

"I learned from a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall named Zhongli that the True Lord Gechen Langshi is good at using space magic." Shen Qin decisively sold Zhongli out, otherwise he would not be able to explain it clearly.

And even if he knew that I was using him as an excuse, the generous and kind Emperor would not blame me, right?

"Zhongli, Zhongli...it really is him." An inexplicable light flashed in Grandma Ping's eyes, and then she looked at Shen Qin with a smile, "What you want is a small prop with spatial power, or the immortal method itself?"

"Of course it is the immortal law itself."

Shen Qin informed Qixing that he was invited by him to develop Guiliyuan, and explained why he needed the space magic.

"Whether it is the construction of the new Liyue city or the resettlement of the ancient ruins of Guiliyuan, both require the assistance of space magic. I want to build the new city into a Liyue-style city that perfectly combines Liyue's traditional style with high technology."

“Develop Guiliyuan… Liyue Harbor has indeed developed to the point where a new city needs to be built. Choosing Guiliyuan… That’s fine, that’s fine! It can be considered as fulfilling Guizhong’s wish.” Grandma Ping looked towards the direction of Guiliyuan and sighed.

She turned around and said, "I understand that you and Qixing both received instructions from that person and decided to develop Guiliyuan. In this case, I can teach you the Space Immortal Technique, but you still need to accept a test from me. Only after you pass the test, I will teach you the Space Immortal Technique."

"By the way, you can't rely on external things to participate in the test. You can only rely on yourself."

Shen Qin blinked his eyes: "Test? It's not about fighting, right? I'm not good at that. I'm just an ordinary person."

"Haha, of course the test for you won't be a fight. I can see that if we really fight, you might not even be able to beat Klee."

Shen Qin: “…”

Ke Li said seriously: "Grandma Ping, you are wrong. When Brother Shen Qin really wanted to hit me, I didn't dare to run or fight back."

Shen Qin rubbed her head with a smile on his face: "You have a good understanding. As a reward, I will hit you less harshly next time."

Klee gave him a resentful look, snorted, and ran to Sugar's side.

Shen Qin rolled up his sleeves and said to Grandma Ping: "Grandma, please test me as much as you can. I'm ready!"

"No hurry, no hurry. It just so happens that there is another friend coming to take the test today, so let's wait for her."

"Eh? Is there anyone else who wants to learn space magic?" Shen Qin asked curiously.

"Haha, that's not the case. I just thought she had a connection with me, so I wanted to give her a small gift. It's not as valuable as the Space Fairy Technique." Grandma Ping sat down at the table. "She will probably be here soon. You guys should wait here with me."

Xiang Ling came up to Shen Qin with a smile and said, "If you want to learn the space magic, don't you have to become my disciple? Then you will be my junior fellow apprentice from now on?"

Yaoyao also looked at Shen Qin curiously. Was she going to have a little junior brother?

"Xiangling, Shen Qin doesn't need to take me as his master. I taught him the space magic only to fulfill a 'contract', which cannot be regarded as the cause and effect between master and disciple. But if Shen Qin is willing, I don't mind taking in one more disciple." Grandma Ping looked at Shen Qin with admiration in her eyes.

She had heard of Shen Qin's name a long time ago.

A genius alchemist who rose from Mondstadt, he developed flying skateboards, bionic prostheses and other alchemical products that changed Teyvat, and later led the construction of Academy City. Alchemical products like snowflakes were scattered from Academy City to all parts of Teyvat, and he became one of the most important figures in Teyvat.

But the man in front of her at this moment looked no different from an ordinary Liyue boy. Those amazing achievements and wealth had not changed his character much.

Just based on this character, he is qualified to be his disciple.

Chapter 226 Technology: Space Magic

When Shen Qin heard what Grandma Ping said, he was shocked and subconsciously agreed.

No one knows how powerful the immortal group headed by Zhongli in Liyue is, but as long as he makes friends with them, he won’t have to worry about his safety in Liyue.

But he still refused.

"Grandma Ping, I'm sorry."

"Silly child, what is there to apologize for? You are a very opinionated person and you have your own thoughts." Grandma Ping shook her head, feeling a little regretful but not caring.

Shen Qin smiled and lowered his head to drink tea.

He has not yet figured out the origin of his time travel and the system in his mind, and he is worried that there may be a deeper cause and effect connection between him and other people.

Time passed quickly as everyone chatted. When it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Qin's familiar voice was heard from afar.

"Grandma Ping, we are here!"

He turned around in surprise and saw Ying and Paimon walking towards him. The one who made the noise just now was the noisy Paimon.

“Hey—Shen Qin, Sucrose, and Klee! You guys are in Liyue too!”

Paimon flashed in front of them and said in surprise.

"It's little Paimon and sister Ying!" Klee waved to Ying in the distance, then held Paimon's hand, "Why are you here?"

"Oh yeah, I was so happy to see you that I forgot to tell you." Xiangling slapped her forehead, stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, and looked at Shen Qin, "Ying and Paimon also came to Liyue Harbor three days ago, and I treated them to dinner at that time."

"Senior Sister, so you all know each other?" Yaoyao widened her eyes.

Ying looked at Yaoyao suspiciously: "Yaoyao called Xiangling Senior Sister?"

"Wait, wait, my mind is confused, let me sort it out!" Xiangling sorted out the current situation.

Three days ago, Ying and Paimon traveled to Liyue Harbor and went to Wanmin Hall to have a meal with Xiangling. Then, just like when they were in Mondstadt, they repeated the task of accepting and completing commissions.

Yesterday, Ying accepted a commission to pick five wild fresh colored lilies for Grandma Ping. When handing in the commission, she happened to meet Grandma Ping who was preparing to teach Yaoyao how to shoot.

Because what they were going to teach was the immortal spear technique, it was naturally inconvenient for ordinary people in Yujingtai to see it, so Grandma Ping and Yaoyao went into the Chen Ge pot and brought the curious Ying and Paimeng into the pot to have a look.

Then Paimeng sighed with envy: "It would be great if we also had a pot like this, so we wouldn't have to sleep in the open air during our future travels."

"Why don't you find a place to settle down instead of traveling all the time?" asked Grandma Ping.

Paimon then told Ying that she was going to travel across the seven kingdoms to look for her brother.

"So that's how it is. Traveling is not just a simple journey, but also a way to find your loved ones!" Grandma Ping sighed, looking at Paimeng who was looking at the huge space inside the Dust Song Pot with envy, and smiled, "Since we are destined to meet, I will give you a Dust Song Pot as a gift."

"Eh? Is it really possible? Wouldn't this be too expensive?" Paimon said in disbelief, but anyone could hear the expectation in her tone.

"Of course it's not expensive, it's just something I made casually." Grandma Ping said with a smile, "I'll make some preparations today, and you can come to see me tomorrow afternoon. I'll set up a test, and if you pass the test, you can get the reward of the Dust Song Pot!"

Time returns to the present.

Paimeng explained to everyone in a serious manner: "This is what happened. Ying and I are here to accept Grandma Ping's test, but Xiangling is also Grandma Ping's disciple... Cooking and marksmanship don't seem to be related at all!"

"Who said it's not related? Practicing spear training also trains the arm strength when holding the spear. Once you are strong enough to hold the spear, then holding a pot will be a piece of cake! And the technique of shaking the spear has something in common with flipping the pot or the spoon..." Xiangling immediately stood up to refute. She was serious about the discussion of cooking skills!

But Grandma Ping was a little amused and helpless. The spear skills that killed the devil turned into cooking skills in Xiangling's hands. She didn't know whether to praise or say anything.

"Okay, okay! Since we are all friends, that couldn't be better." Grandma Ping had a smile on her face. She didn't expect that the good relationship she had established yesterday would be so closely related to Shen Qin and others who came to visit today.

Maybe this is fate.

She looked at Shen Qin and Ying: "Are you ready to take the test?"

"We're ready." They said in unison.

"Then get in the pot!"

The Chen Ge pot placed on the table flew in front of them, and the two people's figures shrank instantly and were sucked into the mouth of the pot.

"Shen Qin!" Shatang took a step forward and spoke in panic.

"Don't worry, Tang. Shen Qin and the others were just sent into the space in the pot." Xiangling held her hand and assured him, "This is the space magic that Master has mastered. It won't cause any harm to him."

"Yeah." Sandang responded, but the worry in her eyes had not disappeared.

This test can only be completed by himself, so even Harrow did not go in with him, but he is just an ordinary person...

"Don't worry, little girl. I have the power to protect him. Nothing will happen to him." Grandma Ping brought her a cup of tea and said meaningfully, "Shen Qin has the courage to accept the test without relying on external things. Do you have the courage to take the initiative to pursue happiness?"

Ping, Grandma Ping, could it be that she has seen that I like Shen Qin? Is it that obvious? Sandang's face instantly turned red, and her thoughts were in a mess.

At this time, in the pot——

Shen Qin opened his eyes and found himself on a floating platform more than ten meters wide. A translucent fairy light channel extended from the edge of the platform, connecting to another floating platform, but there was a barrier blocking his way.

"fluorescent?"

He didn't see Ying on the platform.

"Shen Qin, Ying, the test I give you is to find a way to overcome the difficulties and reach the end. When you arrive at the end at the same time, the test will be passed."

Grandma Ping's voice echoed between heaven and earth.

At the same time, the system prompt sounded in Shen Qin's brain.

[Technology·Space Immortal Technique detected, now issuing a temporary task: pass the test of Gechenlangshi Zhenjun and obtain his Space Immortal Technique authorization. ]

[Task Reward: Technology·Space Immortal Technique. ]

Shen Qin: ???

No, can space magic be integrated into a technology by the system? It's a bit outrageous!

Then his heart was filled with excitement. He had planned to ask Granny Ping to cooperate with him to study the scientific method of using space magic after passing the test, but he did not expect that the system had directly integrated and packaged it and was waiting for him to take it.

What a thoughtful system!

In return, he decided to complete the system's tasks meticulously in the future.

Titan Helicarrier? He was a little hesitant at first, but now, build it!

Technology tree branch? After the development plan of Guiliyuan is completed, the first choice is psychic technology!

But now, all he has to do is pass Grandma Ping's test.

"Let me see what the test is." He stepped towards the barrier that blocked his way.

Chapter 227: My coding skills are so great!

Shen Qin came to the barrier and found that there were bright spots of varying brightness scattered irregularly on the barrier. Apart from that, there was no other clue.

He subconsciously opened the terminal bracelet to ask for help from the super terminal, but when he saw the virtual screen showing no signal, he remembered that there was no signal base station in the Chen Ge pot, so naturally there was no signal.

He had no choice but to call up the terminal's built-in database, and what he found was a star map of Teyvat, but the positions of the stars on the map did not coincide with the bright spots on the barrier.

"Do we need to find a control mechanism to control the movement of the bright spots on the barrier to form the correct star map?"

He searched the floating platform with his eyes and found a half-man-high stone pile in an inconspicuous corner. There were five layers of stone piles, and each layer had a wooden pole for moving.

The situation is very clear. Move the wooden rod to adjust the star map until the bright spots on the barrier are restored to the correct star map.

Could this mechanism have been designed by that woman?

Shen Qin arrived at the stone pile and only then noticed that the correct star map was printed on the ground of the entire floating platform. Perhaps Grandma Ping was also worried that the person taking the test would not remember the star map... Apart from astrologers, no one could remember the complicated star map!

He moved the first layer of stone piles, and saw that the bright spot in the center of the barrier rotated by a corresponding angle. But when he moved the second layer of stone piles, bright spots in three circles in total began to rotate. The middle circle rotated in the same direction as the stone piles, but the two circles on the sides rotated in the opposite direction!

He tested each layer of stone piles and summarized the patterns.

The bright spots on the barrier are divided into five circles from the inside to the outside, corresponding to the five layers of stone piles from top to bottom. However, rotating each circle will cause the two adjacent circles to rotate in the opposite direction by the same angle.

This is a bit like the torturous decryption mechanism in Inazuma's house! Is it testing my observation and logical thinking skills?

However, in the game, Zhongli's Rock Ridge will help to decipher the puzzle, but in reality, you can only rely on yourself...right?

Shen Qin excitedly opened the terminal and typed out fifteen lines of code to clearly state the logic of the mechanism. He then took a photo of the barrier and imported the photo and the correct star map into the code at the same time. In less than a second, the terminal calculated the optimal steps for decryption.

"The fourth layer rotates 30 degrees clockwise, the first layer rotates 25 degrees counterclockwise, and the second layer rotates 80 degrees clockwise..."

It only took Shen Qin eight steps to perfectly restore the star map. With the special effect of broken glass, the barrier blocking the way disappeared. He nodded with satisfaction and headed for the next test.

My coding skills are so great!

Grandma Ping, who was watching Chen Ge Hu the whole time, was also stunned. She didn't expect that he would still bring the "cheating" tools in. She could only say helplessly: "This can be regarded as his wisdom."

Then she looked at Ying on the other side.

"This child's way of solving problems is also... unique..."

Ying landed on a floating platform of a slightly lower height, and she had to find a way to get to the floating platform above.

There is a wind seed in the center of the floating platform under her feet. Two small platforms extend outward from the platform, each with a wind seed. However, there are also monsters such as slimes and hillbillies guarding the wind seeds.

She must defeat the monster in a very short time, obtain the wind seed on another small platform within the duration of the first wind seed, and then return to the central platform to pick up the last wind seed to form a wind field.

This was a test of her fighting ability and speed, but she didn't even look at the wind seeds and directly locked her target on one of the large wind slimes.
