Chapter 7: Mondstadt, the City of Freedom

I saw that all the Hilichurls in the camp, except the Hilichurl thugs, knelt down collectively with their hands clasped together as if they were devout believers. If you didn't consider the kneeling marks and bloodstains on the ground left by the inertia of the Hilichurls running, you would really think they were devout believers from nowhere.

The wooden shield hillock thug knelt in front of Arthur, put his hands together, and caught the sword that Arthur slashed down, while the wooden shield remained where it was and was not brought over.

But from Ying and Amber's perspective, Arthur swung his sword, and the Hillichul thugs seemed to teleport to Arthur and caught the sword, while the other Hillichul people slid to their knees and stopped as if they were the younger husbands in the family who saw their wives were angry.

The sound of kneeling down and the friction of slipping made people feel cold in their knees.

The situation was very awkward for a moment, but Ying was the first to come to her senses and turned around to yell at Amber.

"Come here Amber, it's okay."

Amber heard Ying's voice, put away his bow and arrow, and came to the camp.

"As expected of you, you play more and more extravagantly each time."

Arthur didn't respond to Ying's words, but rolled his eyes at her.

It turns out that the skill was successfully activated and was effective for a group, but only one person would be forced to move to the front to catch the blade with bare hands, while the others would stay where they were, immediately interrupting all actions and completing the action.

Even when Arthur heard the sound of the knee suddenly kneeling and sliding during the sprint, he felt guilty for a moment, but conscience only exists for a moment. After all, without conscience, he would only earn more and become stronger.

A purple profiteer gave you a thumbs up on Xumi.

Under the influence of the 100% experience of catching a blade with bare hands, Ying directly started to harvest in the camp as if she was in an empty place. She did not need to use any skills or techniques at all. She just saw the hillbillies and ended the battle with one sword.

Amber looked at Ying who was like a wolf rushing into a sheepfold, and took out her bow and arrow. After killing the hillock archer on the watchtower, she came to Arthur. Ying also completed the harvest after she left, and after killing the last hillock man, she collected the dropped supplies and returned to Arthur.

"I didn't expect you to be so strong, Arthur. Is this Liyue's magic? I seem to have heard that Liyue has a magic called the Immobilization Technique, which can immobilize monsters affected by karma, but it seems that it's not as strong as yours..."

"Not so cool, right? I understand. Although this is only the second time I've seen Arthur use it, this skill is really crazy."

Yingdu changed his dumb persona and took on the role of the complainer, making crazy complaints about Arthur.

Arthur didn't say anything and could only wave his hands innocently. After all, it wasn't his idea. If possible, who wouldn't want to travel the world with a sword? Instead, he chose to use funny skills to control the character.

"Speaking of which, why are the Hilliculers here?"

"These creatures usually don't set up camp so close to a city."

Paimon touched his chin and expressed his doubts.

Amber crossed her chest with one hand and supported her chin with the other hand, and answered Paimon's question, "Yes, they should only wander in the wilderness."

"But recently, wind dragons have appeared frequently, orchards have been destroyed, and trade routes have also been affected."

"People are often injured when a storm breaks out...so the Knights have to focus on defense."

Paimon put his hands on his hips and looked at Amber, "So these annoying creatures are getting closer and closer?"

"Yeah, but we cleared another camp today, so it was still quite rewarding."

Amber put one hand over his chest and put it on his shoulder, and once again made a knight's salute to the others, and then said, "Follow me! The good and responsible knight will escort you into the city.

After cleaning up the camp, we didn't encounter any monsters like hillbillies or slimes on the way back. Instead, we arrived at the bridge unimpeded. Perhaps because of Tevarin's influence, no people or vehicles passed on the bridge. Even Timmy, who had been feeding the pigeons, was not on the bridge.

There were only a few pigeons on the bridge, hopping around in the middle of the bridge, as if waiting for someone to feed them.

But this wait was a farewell forever, because the fourth disaster stretched out its murderous hand to them.

"Go with the wind!"

Just look at Ying, a breath of wind was thrown along the bridge, and the pigeons on the road were affected and sucked into it. As the tornado moved, the pigeons were also sucked into it. Even if the pigeons at the back reacted and wanted to fly away, it was too late. The tornado was already close at hand, and the suction of the strong wind made it impossible for them to escape.

If Amber was speechless about Arthur's skills in the camp, then Cho felt helpless about Ying's actions.

After all, it is normal for adventurers to kill monsters and pick up materials and the dropped Mora. Although not much, it will accumulate as the number of battles increases. But it is the first time that Amber has seen someone like Ying, who leaves no grass growing wherever he goes. All kinds of materials and food on the road have been picked up, even the iron ore has been collected. If it were not for the fact that Ying could not break the white iron ore and crystal ore with his one-handed sword, they would have been cleaned up.

Now even the pigeons on the bridge were not spared, and they were directly turned into poultry meat on the ground and collected by Ying.

Ying acted as if nothing had happened and returned to the team, as if the tornado and the poultry on the ground had nothing to do with her.

Amber didn't know what to say. After all, Ying didn't hurt anyone. As for the pigeons, before being affected by the Wind Dragon, there were always pedestrians and caravans complaining that the pigeons at the door were in the way, and Timmy was always angry because others drove away the pigeons. So Amber could only pretend nothing happened and came to the gate of Mondstadt.

"Welcome back, Amber, who are these two behind you?"

The guards at the door saw Amber coming back, greeted her, and then asked about the identities of the people. After all, they didn't know anything else, but they did see Ying using a wind tornado to clear away the pigeons on the bridge. Anyone with the power of the element of wind coming to Mond during this period would definitely need to have their identity verified.

Amber also greeted the two Knights of Favonius, and after explaining their identities as travelers, she let them go. As for Paimon, he did not attract their attention. After all, with his size of two heads, he would not have any impact on Mond.

"May the wind god protect you, strange but respectable traveler."

The two men, one on the left and one on the right, stretched out a hand to make a knight's salute, and then opened the city gate.

After entering Mondstadt, Amber stood up straight, saluted as a knight, and then spoke.

"Travelers protected by the Knights of the West Wind, welcome to Mondstadt!"

Chapter 8: Join the Adventurer's Guild and Win the Lottery

"Ding, system prompt, arrived at Mondstadt, unlocked the Mondstadt area map, started the Mondstadt mission, and rewarded 10 entangled fates."

Following Amber's words, the system prompt sounded.

"Mond series mission 1: Meet with Captain Qin, reward: 160 original stones."

"Open personal panel."

[Name: Arthur

Power: 12

Speed: 12

Intelligence: 11

Stamina: 10

Items: Sunset Fruit*3, Coke*1, Mora*8000, HP Recovery (Small)*1, Gold Coin*10, Raw Stone*160, Edgeless Sword*1, Source of Entanglement*10

Special ability: Sword Master (in effect, the basic data will be gradually corrected with practice), 100% chance of catching a blade with bare hands]

Arthur thought about it and didn't rush to draw the lottery, but opened the newly appeared map.

Then, the map of Mond appeared in sight. The map in sight was very familiar, because it was the map in the game. Except for the lack of teleportation anchor points, it was almost a one-to-one replica of the game map. The lack of teleportation anchor points proved that teleportation was impossible, but the good news was that the map was unlocked very comprehensively. It was not like the game where you had to touch the Seven Days Statue once to unlock a part of it, but it was all unlocked.

But the map is of no use now, so I can only close it and return to the real perspective.

Amber and Ying are still moving forward, and from what Amber said, it seems that she is going to take Ying to use the Wings of Wind, but she did not say that she was going to give Arthur the Wings of Wind. From Paimon's explanation, it seems that the Wings of Wind require elemental power to drive. Although Arthur is not an ordinary person, he cannot drive the Wings of Wind because he does not have elemental power. (I specifically looked at the plot and the story of each Wing of Wind, and explained in detail whether the Wings of Wind can be used by everyone. Here, the second setting is changed to require elemental power to drive. After all, the characters in the plot are restricted to some terrains and need the help of the protagonist. Let's just leave it as it is)

"Arthur, do you have anything to do or do you want to stay with us?"

When Ying heard that Arthur could not use the Wings of Wind, she still asked her travel companion. Her purpose was to find her brother, but Arthur was different. He might also have his own journey.

"I don't have anything to do, but you guys go first. We just arrived in the city, I'm going to buy some supplies and book a room for our temporary stay. After all, learning how to use the Wings of Wind can't be completed in a short time."

Although Ying learned how to use the Wings of Wind with just a few sentences in the game, it is not so easy in reality. It is like learning to drive a car. It looks simple, but the various rules are the most complicated. Amber also mentioned the flight manual. As long as there are regulations, it is not a matter of just using it.

"Okay, let's meet at the restaurant outside the door then."

Several people agreed to meet at the restaurant in the evening.

Afterwards, Ying also took out all the Mora she had picked up along the way and gave them to Arthur. Including the Mora given to Ying as a reward and the Mora picked up from monsters on the road, the total was almost 3k+ Mora. Adding his own Mora, it was only 1w1. Arthur didn't want to be humble, after all, he had no money.

Amber went to the Knights to report the mission first, while Ying went to the square to wait, and Arthur planned to book a hotel first.

After visiting several hotels, except for the Mond Hotel which was booked by the Fatui and could not be entered, the other hotels were almost the same. Finally, Arthur chose one that was closer to the city gate, booked two rooms, paid a deposit for 3 days, then collected the key and left.

"I didn't expect the hotel price to be so outrageous. It only costs 1000 a day. It's really not expensive when you think about how a meal at the door costs thousands of Mora."

But after looking at the only 5k Mora I have left, it seems that I will have to add +1 to the "No Grass Left" combination in the future, otherwise I won't be able to pay the rent. I don't know how the house prices in Mondstadt are, but at this price, I'm afraid I'll have to spend tens of millions of Mora. (Not really, the value of Mora in the original God is a bit strange)

Arthur took the only five thousand Mora left in his hand and went back to the main gate of Mondstadt. Not because he wanted to forge a weapon, but to join the Adventurer's Guild first.

"Toward the stars and the abyss, welcome to the Adventurers Association."

In the pavilion of the first staircase, Catherine, dressed in a white and green uniform, was standing inside. When she saw Arthur approaching, she immediately spoke her common phrase.

"I want to become an adventurer. Do I need to submit any information?"

"Just give your name, dear traveler."

Later, through Catherine's records, Arthur also became an adventurer.

After the registration was completed, Catherine introduced to Arthur the relevant matters of the Adventurer's Association.

"After becoming an adventurer, there are no mandatory requirements. If an adventurer needs to accept or issue a commission, he can contact me, and then I will record the commission in the book and then issue it to the adventurer. You can accept daily commissions at will, but if the commission involves combat, I will need to choose a combat commission, and our investigator will accompany you to complete the task. When the task is completed, the investigator will integrate the combat content into a report and then decide whether to allow you to accept combat missions in the future after evaluation."

Catherine introduced other related matters. Generally speaking, there are no mandatory requirements. You can accept and complete any commissions every day. There are only restrictions on combat commissions. You can accept a maximum of 4 daily commissions per day. There are no other restrictions.

Arthur also asked about whether there were any related benefits, how to form an adventure team, whether there were any levels and so on. After Catherine confirmed Arthur's inquiries, she answered them one by one.

In general, adventure groups can be formed at any time without any requirements, and there is no such thing as levels for adventurers. Only when they are recognized by everyone can they be called great adventurers. However, the Adventurer's Association has not set up grading. As for benefits, the Adventurer's Association will give certain rewards for completing a certain number of tasks, and that's all.

Glancing at the world, Arthur saw that there was still some time before evening, so he decided to go back to the hotel to rest. As for Tevarin's appearance later, it was not something he should worry about. Barbatos would provide support from behind, so he should go back to the hotel first, burn incense and take a bath, and then see if he could draw any good things from the system.

After washing up, Arthur turned on the system.

"Take the ten draws I was given."

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Mora*10000, Mora*2000, Random Skill Book*1, Coke Box, Repair Scroll*1, Recipe*1, Cooking Mastery*1, Poultry*1, Sunset Fruit*3, Crystal Mine*10]

[Name: Arthur

Power: 12

Speed: 12

Items: Sunset Fruit*6, Coke*1, Mora*17000, HP Recovery (Small)*1, Gold Coin*10, Raw Stone*160, Edgeless Sword*1, Random Skill Book*1, Coke Box, Repair Scroll*1, Recipe*1, Poultry*1, Crystal Ore*10

Special abilities: Master of swordsmanship, 100% ability to catch a blade with bare hands, proficient in cooking]

It seems that I am still very lucky. Although I didn't get any gold this time, it is pretty good that I didn't get any bonus except for the three purple items. One is a random skill book, one is a repair scroll, and one is a cooking mastery.

The repair scroll can be kept to repair weapons or used to repair the Sky Harp. The skill book will be opened in a moment, but the randomness is very worrying.

Then I looked at the skill description for Culinary Mastery.

[Mastery of Cooking: Possessing cooking skills at about the level of a master chef. Once you know the recipe and have prepared the ingredients, you can directly use your skills to complete the cooking.]

Chapter 9: Completion of Abilities, the First Step of the Hexagonal Warrior

Although Arthur has been complaining about the system since he bound it to the system.

But it must be said that everything the system produces is top quality. This mastery of cooking seems to be just learning how to cook, and he does not intend to rely on cooking as a means of survival in Teyvat. But just like the master of swordsmanship, the additional affixes are truly divine.

After all, automatic cooking is possible without any restrictions. If you tell other adventurers about this, they will probably beg Arthur to join their team. After all, the adventure environment is not as peaceful as in the game. There are no places to cook anywhere and no food to carry with you. As for cooking skills, as long as all the materials are complete, they can be generated directly. It is simply an adventure skill. I believe that if it can be exchanged, some people will even get it at all costs, but there is no if.

"Take advantage of your good luck and draw a random skill."

After using the item, the system prompt made Arthur understand why the random skill book was only a four-star item. This was because it was the same concept as a lottery. If you were lucky, you could draw top-level skills, even star-destroying skills. If you were unlucky, you might only draw some abilities that you didn't have at all.

Although what was presented to Arthur was called a random skill book, how could it be a book?

"Although I have suspected that the system is Xiaomi's system for a long time, but do you dare to play it more awkwardly? Do you think I only play Genshin Impact and not Honkai Impact 3rd? Isn't this just a slot machine for cats and cats?"

That's right, after using the random skill book, a book does not appear or a lottery begins, but a slot machine appears. Why is it a cat's? Because cat gamblers come uninvited to Paradise.

Tired of complaining, Arthur pulled the lever to start the lottery, only to see the interface jumping around wildly, and finally stopped. The slot machine disappeared, and a system prompt sounded.

[Congratulations to the host for passing the cat... and then obtaining the skill from the skill book: Cleansing. ]

"Don't play dead. I heard you. You want to talk about the cat machine, right?"

However, as Arthur asked the system, the system did not respond at all. He could only check the skill description. After all, you never know how much the effect of a skill is related to the ability.

[Cleaning Technique: Cleans dirt and repairs damage. Each use consumes a certain amount of divine power. Note: This ability was invented by a goddess who stayed at home in order to avoid cleaning.]

[System prompt: Due to the influence of different energy systems, the host cannot use the acquisition ability. Compensation ability: energy conversion.]

[Energy conversion: can convert various mysterious or extraordinary abilities into each other. Note: Different attribute abilities have different effects, and can only convert known or existing abilities. Currently convertible abilities: elemental power, divine power.]

I always feel like my system is too good to me, drawing the cleansing spell and giving away skills.

It is normal to compensate by modifying the usage method, or to directly help the host use it, but giving an energy conversion is too outrageous. This ability definitely has a five-star effect. If all skills can be used, the effect will be very general. It can only be said to be convenient, but it is different if it can be converted freely. The most convenient explanation is the Honkai energy of the Honkai world. The official setting is simply omnipotent, and there is also a erosion effect. The most important thing is that it will screen the physique.

Also, in the ancient martial arts worldview, spiritual power has the effects of healing and prolonging life.
