Looking at the calamity before him, Qi Mo coughed twice and said this.

"thing?"

Slightly taken aback, Huo Rong didn't quite understand Qi Mo's words.

The next moment, Qi Mo took the box out of the storage device.

"what is this?"

Looking at the box in front of him, Huo Rong asked instinctively.

"You'll see when you open it."

Qi Mo spoke slowly and deliberately, and Huo Rong, upon hearing this, casually opened the unlocked box.

Glitter.

What appeared in the box was something that shone with a golden luster and resembled currency; these resembling currencies seemed to contain a faint energy.

"This is...money?"

Looking at the contents of the box, Huo Rong subconsciously said.

Looking at the funds in front of him, Huo Rong couldn't help but swallow hard.

How many elementary school textbooks could this buy?

"I can roughly guess what you're thinking. Don't get your hopes up. This isn't some kind of currency from outside the country; it's from somewhere else."

Qi Mo spoke without hesitation, and Huo Rong's mood instantly cooled down upon hearing this.

"Wait, other places? I don't know how those places compare to the Golden Age?"

Thinking that elementary school textbooks might exist in other places as well, Huo Rong asked subconsciously.

"A golden age? Hmm... it can't compare. That place isn't even in our universe; it's in a much safer one."

I have a part-time job there, and I need to ask someone for a favor recently—someone who's a colleague at the place I work for.

Qi Mo continued speaking as a messenger, and Huo Rong, upon hearing this, paused slightly before revealing a knowing expression.

Oh, I understand now.

All I wanted was for you to use this money to bribe someone. I never expected you to act like such a gentleman, yet you would actually dare to do something like bribery behind my back.

What a filthy adult world.

Uh, okay.

I don't think I should be surprised, after all, this guy really did ask me to act out a scene of "beating up a kid".

Those without official status are the perfect black gloves, so it's reasonable for them to send some bribes.

As for a safer universe, it's probably not as prosperous as the original world yet; it might be a newly formed universe that hasn't been around for very long.

Not all universes are as dangerous as their home world, otherwise the guardians of the universe wouldn't have planned to sneak away to other universes and would have just run away to another world.

"Is there anything you can tell me about that place?"

Looking at the being before him, Huo Rong asked with some curiosity.

"That place is called Teyvat, a continent on a planet in a less prosperous universe."

Besides my position here, I also occasionally work part-time as an agent for the maintainers over there. You can think of me as a subordinate of a subordinate of a big shot. The person you are looking for is a man named Wendy.

As for the origin of this pile of valuables, hmm... let me think... you can just tell him it's his salary, okay?

Qi Mo slowly explained, and Huo Rong nodded and memorized what he heard.

I don't have any recollection of Teyvat or the Bane of the Maintainer. Although there was indeed some Genshin Impact-related information infiltration from DC, I had never had the opportunity to contact the Bane of the Maintainer before.

In the spectral layer, Qi Mo continued to teach Wendy the information needed to "bribe" her, such as the Teyvat restrictions, before handing over a specific tracking device to Huo Rong.

Huo Rong looked at the tunnel that Qi Mo had opened, took a deep breath, and chose to step into it.

Teyvat, here I come!

I'm willing to stake my honor as the first Lantern Man on this mission! I'm determined to win over Wendy!

A gentle breeze caressed his face amidst the lush greenery, and the beautiful scenery before him made Huo Rong, who was carrying a suitcase, feel somewhat relaxed.

I don't know why, but suddenly I feel like slacking off and then shouting "Hey!"

Well, you can get tired of seeing all the different colors in the spectrum eventually, and sometimes going back to nature is a good choice.

Unfortunately, there was still work to be done; next up was the time to deliver the message.

However here

Looking up at the sky, Huo Rong could feel a sense of oppression from high above.

That was a warning from the false heaven that Qi Mo had strengthened: do not attempt to break through the false heaven, for that would be a forbidden act.

However, Calamity had no intention of breaking the false heavens; he only intended to complete his mission of delivering the message and gather some information about this Teyvat.

The wilderness seemed to have just experienced a rain shower; the scent of rainwater and mud gave the calamity a more tangible sense of life, and the madness imprisoned for billions of years seemed to have been somewhat healed.

Having realized this, the Calamity chose to move slowly, clearly showing that the Mondstadt wind god was quite skilled at shaping natural scenery.

However, good times are always fleeting.

Not long after Huo Rong arrived in this wilderness, he sensed something approaching him, followed by a loud voice: "Put down what you're holding!"

Ok?

This is... a robber?

Huo Rong was stunned. Soon, several members of the treasure-hunting gang jumped out from the surrounding area, seemingly eyeing the box Huo Rong was carrying.

"The contents of this box are extremely valuable; I cannot give them to you."

Without hesitation, he said it, and the next moment, Huo Rong reached out and a rainbow-colored spear of light condensed.

The spear of light, formed from the convergence of the seven-colored spectrum, awaited its opponent in battle. In fact, if Huo Rong hadn't suppressed his senses to enjoy the "natural scenery," he would never have been ambushed by these guys.

"At most, he's just an ordinary person who's a bit stronger? He's really overestimating himself."

As Huo Rong spoke, he approached the group with his spear. Upon seeing this, one of the members of the treasure-hunting group was slightly taken aback:

"The holder of the Eye of God? But this color seems to be the result of seven Eyes of God working together."

"It might be some kind of deluxe custom-made weapon, perhaps even the work of those alchemists."

Another member of the treasure-hunting group spoke up, and at that moment, Huo Rong secretly memorized these words.

The Eye of God, alchemists, hmm, are these the characteristics of this continent?

"Hey kid, hand over that box of yours, and we might consider sparing your life and letting you go."

The leader of the treasure-hunting group answered without hesitation, and Huo Rong was slightly taken aback upon hearing this: "How... are you?"

"Huh? 28, what's wrong?"

The leader of the treasure-hunting group paused slightly, then subconsciously answered the question.

Upon hearing this, Huo Rong nodded. "Hmm, he doesn't seem to be one of those immortals."

Kid? I'm old enough to be this guy's ancestor for countless generations.

"You've made a foolish move by provoking me. What you said earlier was correct; I'll borrow it for a moment."

"Hand over your belongings, and I might consider sparing your lives."

Just because that guy can't use the money he's bribing Wendy doesn't mean he can't make some money from a lower-level source.

"Huh? After being trained by the swordsman for so long, we are no weaklings."

"How dare they talk to us like that! Today we'll show you why the legendary Spark Knight's Bouncing Bomb is so red!"

Looking at what was before him, the leader of the treasure-hunting gang spoke without hesitation.

"Brother, wasn't it painted with paint?"

Just then, a member of the treasure-hunting group nearby said something instinctively.

"Shut up, don't sabotage me."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the treasure-hunting gang rebuked them without hesitation.

Seeing this, Huo Rong calmly unleashed the majesty of his own power, while at this moment, in a nearby mountain stronghold, two beings were engaging in a down-to-earth arm wrestling match.

"According to the way of thinking of the native humans in this world, what we are doing seems to have nothing to do with style."

Looking at Ares before him, Brainiac began to speak.

"I don't want to continue playing chess. I'm more interested in things other than physical strength."

Recalling the chess game that Brainiac and Ares had planned to play with more style, Ares felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. He thought it was better to just have a simple arm wrestling match.

At that moment, the oppressive aura that Huo Rong released towards the treasure-hunting group he had recruited from his mountain stronghold attracted the attention of the two powerful beings.

In the next instant, using the traces left on those members, Calamity and Ares simultaneously descended upon the leader and deputy leader of the treasure-hunting squad.

With a wave of his right hand, Brainiac erased the oppressive aura of the Calamity.

"What brings you to our Dark Knight Stronghold?"

Looking at the calamity before him, and seeing his teammates erase the oppressive aura, Ares subconsciously spoke up.

Wait a minute, did I just hear something strange?

"What village?"

Before he could even react to how this being had erased his oppressive aura, Huo Rong couldn't help but ask a question.

"Dark Knight Stronghold".

Without hiding anything, Ares honestly gave his answer.

According to the records in Houmu Cultivation Chronicles, Black Tiger Stronghold is more suitable as a name for a mountain stronghold like yours that robs passersby in the wild, right?

What the heck is this "Dark Knight Stronghold"?

Huo Rong felt an irresistible urge to complain. He took a deep breath and thought, "Hmm, this seems to be closer to some fantasy novels based on the knightly era that I know from the past."

It's not hard to understand why this mountain stronghold is called Dark Knight Stronghold.

Speaking of which, do any members of this Dark Knight stronghold have nicknames like Dark Knight?

The thought flashed through Huo Rong's mind subconsciously, while Ares raised his sword with some vigilance.

Although the newcomer's strength is among the weakest of the many worldly wanderers in Teyvat, he should not be underestimated. Who knows what trump cards he might have up his sleeve?

Ares and Brainiac, at this moment, tacitly stopped concealing their power. In the next instant, the calamity felt that the two robbers in front of him had instantly transformed into beings that, in the words of the messenger, were omnipotent universe-level beings.

Silence is the harbinger of disaster at this moment.

Oh no, we underestimated it.

Good news, the combat strength here is a bit lower; high school students no longer have all-around combat abilities.

The bad news is that the number is a little low; those who dare to become robbers here are all omnipotent universe-level powerhouses.

Kou hope, is it possible to reconcile?

Honkai Impact 3rd Year: Chapter 1578: Calamity: Who uses their real name when they're out and about? I am Dark Zagi.

I've spent half my life wandering in the wilderness, only regretting that I never met a wise ruler.

If the Dark Knights' stronghold does not abandon me, I, Huo Rong, am willing to join them and become a member.

Strange thoughts popped into his mind, but Huo Rong knew that these guys probably wouldn't allow him to join.

After all, the grunts of this Dark Knight stronghold must all be omnipotent, universe-level beings.

I'm not qualified to join the Dark Knights' stronghold.

Thinking of this, Huo Rong couldn't help but shake his head, ultimately realizing that he was too weak.

Just as Huo Rong was considering whether to reveal his identity as a messenger to test his abilities, a loud voice rang out from afar:

"Stop it!"

The girl's voice was bright and cheerful; the newcomer was none other than Amber, the scout knight well-versed in legends.

"That's... a scout knight! Everyone, retreat!"
