Genshin Impact: Another Traveler of Teyvat

"We just met not long ago. She was imprisoned in the Order for 500 years. I created a Dharma body for her and let her start her own journey. She should be in Mondstadt now, right?"

"So that thing is true?"

"What's the matter?"

"Two days ago, I heard that in the Angel's Gift tavern in Mondstadt, after a girl drank a cup of special cocktail, the whole house was instantly covered with flowers inside and out, and it turned into a flower house. It directly flooded the tavern, and Diluc and the Knights of Favonius cut the flowers all night long."

Lin Zixuan covered his face and black lines appeared on his head.

"Uh... probably, possibly, it's her. Barbatos really took her to the tavern. But these two guys don't have much Mora. If the wind god Barbatos doesn't run away loyally, the grass god won't be caught and forced to wash dishes, right? In that case, won't we be able to see the maiden version of Nashida in a maid costume?"

The two beauties on the left and right looked at the man with shining eyes and nodded at the same time. The man who was thinking didn't notice that two hands were approaching his waist.

"Ah!!!" The screams echoed in the villa.

April 1st.

The bulletin board in front of the General Affairs Department, Liyue TV Station, newspapers and other places announced many new things and some new notices at the same time.

There was even more discussion in the teahouses and taverns.

"Wow, Master Xuan has only been back for a month, and he just finished the General Affairs Department and started again."

"Liyue Amusement Park, Liyue Zoo, Liyue Water Park, they cover a huge area."

“The Tour of Liyue will become a permanent event held in Liyue every May. Wow, this is a big deal!”

"A one-day race turned into 14 days. We have to plan the route in advance. How many people will come to watch the race?"

"And we no longer accept individual registrations. We must form a team and pay a fee, which is usually paid by the sponsor. It costs 20 Mora per person? The General Affairs Department will provide accommodation, breakfast and dinner for 14 days."

"There's actually an elimination system? It seems like the General Affairs Department doesn't want so many idiots to enter this competition, right?"

"That's exactly how it should be handled. There were really a lot of scoundrels in the small bicycle races held by Feiyun Chamber of Commerce in recent years. Master Xuan set a bad example! There are consolation prizes for completing the race. As a result, those scoundrels went to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce to make trouble after the race."

"There are also those who secretly put laxatives in the water bottles of the champions. Even if they are found out, the champions will not be able to compete, or their condition will be very bad and they will have no chance of winning. But if it is a 14-day competition, the points system will greatly reduce the impact of one or two days."

"And this new Liyue Crystal Car Race has such a long set of rules that I'm a little dizzy."

"I read it and it's easy to understand. Just use the same crystal engine. The rest depends on the logistics and the driver's performance. There is no requirement for whether to use Xuanyuan or Feiyun.

There are also professional and amateur competitions. If you form a professional team, Xuanyuan Trading Company will also provide a racing crystal engine. This professional team is not like a bicycle team where you can just put together 5 people. There are requirements for logistics personnel and sponsors. "

"The racing crystal engine provided by Xuanyuan Trading Company? Wouldn't that mean they can take first place again?"

"That's not necessarily true. I heard that someone got a brand new model built by Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. It was tuned very aggressively and uses the same engine as Xuanyuan Dragon. Its top speed is more than 20% faster than Xuanyuan Dragon."

"Then the competition will be very interesting. Maybe even Xuanyuan Trading Company of Master Xuan will lose."

"We have to go in October, which is still half a year away. I don't know how many people will attend. Although we can't afford it, it's nice to go and see it."

"Yes! Although many companies have obtained crystal engines, the price is generally around 5000 million Mora. Even the small model with 30 horsepower costs 2000 million Mora."

"We can only wait a few more years until the price drops further. Hey, do you think that by then the second-hand sales of crystal bikes will be as hot as those of bicycles?"

The people chatting in the teahouse and pub all have their own thoughts. They believe that now is a good time to enter the blank market for vehicle accessories, second-hand sales, etc.

Liyue's two events became permanent annual competitions, attracting the attention of many businesses in the other six countries to Liyue Harbor.

Many people from foreign trading companies also realized that this was a good opportunity to use the publicity from Liyue TV Station to make their trading companies visible in the continent of Teyvat.

The event has gradually become a huge investment promotion activity.

Meanwhile, a certain white-haired girl in Mondstadt had a puffy face and was holding a rag, wiping the countless cups and plates in front of her, while she kept muttering about a certain disloyal bard.

Chapter 244: Too Advanced, Must Be Downgraded

Mingyun Town.

Lin Zixuan, Uncle Fu and a group of technicians were looking at this red-shelled work of art in the factory.

It was making a unique roaring sound, and as the technicians adjusted it, the sound gradually grew louder, making everyone present excited.

"Master, this racing version of the crystal engine is so powerful. The sound of it gives me goosebumps."

"Well, it's very good. Our new technology has given this racing engine 195 horsepower, the rpm can exceed 7000, and the torque has also reached a new height. But this tiger is not so easy to tame."

"I really don't know if those newly established crystal teams can fully demonstrate their strengths."

"Let's load the car first. I'll try this tiger first."

Fu Bo nodded and arranged for the technicians to start loading the racing engine into the car. A white sports car was pushed out from the warehouse at the back.

After two hours of installation, Lin Zixuan climbed on his new mount. This model was modeled after the mount of a certain God's Hand, but only the outer shell was similar.

I drove the vehicle slowly out of the factory and towards the testing site, and I couldn't help but accelerate.

Passing a slow curve, I was about to change gears to climb the hill, but when I stepped on the accelerator, I heard a sound from under the car...

BOOM...ka la la la...ka la la la...

The car lost power instantly.

After carefully sensing the bottom of the car, he found that the gearbox was already in a mess. He quickly put the car into the space ring and flew back to the factory gate.

"Young Master? Why are you back?" Uncle Fu, who was chatting with the technicians, was very surprised to see Lin Zixuan come back less than five minutes after he left.

"The gearbox exploded." Lin Zixuan took the vehicle out of the space ring and placed it on the maintenance rack. The technician nearby hurried forward to check it.

"The gearbox exploded? No way?" Uncle Fu looked confused.

"It may be because the previous horsepower did not exceed 100 horsepower, and this engine can produce 195 horsepower, which exceeds the tolerance of this version of the gearbox." Lin Zixuan thought about it.

"Hiss... This is troublesome. Xiaopang, should we have spare parts for this gearbox?"

Uncle Fu asked a fat technician.

"Yes, yes. If we replace it directly, it might get broken, right? The gears used in this version of the gearbox are mainly lightweight. Should we replace it with a gearbox that is mainly hard?" Xiaopang offered some suggestions.

"Master, what do you think?"

"Let's replace the gearbox with one that focuses on hardness first!" Lin Zixuan made the final decision.

After a while, the damaged gearbox was taken out. After opening the inside, Lin Zixuan saw that many gears were twisted, and these gears... were actually hollowed out? This should be inspired by the hollowed-out transmission and flywheel on bicycles, right?

This hollow design can indeed easily produce lightweight objects, but it also makes such hollow objects more prone to deformation, and requires further breakthroughs in manufacturing materials.

The ideas of these researchers are very good, and scientific research results can only be obtained through these tests and experiments. Coupled with the test of the market and the support of policies, many studies will tend to a certain direction. At present, the main research direction of Mingyun Town Research Institute is mainly lightweight and miniaturized.

Many things in daily life have survived the test of people. Now that we have let them go and do their best, we cannot easily discourage their enthusiasm.

After a while, the technicians brought out a new gearbox. After feeling it, they estimated that this gearbox weighed about 200 kilograms, while the previous one weighed only about 80 kilograms.

After loading was completed, Lin Zixuan drove out of the factory again and headed for the testing site.

The first lap was a warm up, no problem.

I was planning to accelerate at full speed on the second lap and was about to take the first fast turn.

Silently thinking in my heart, watch me drift...

Gently pull the handbrake.

There were two strange noises coming from the front and rear wheels at the same time, and then the two tires flew out.

Hiss, hiss, hiss...the bottom of the car scraped against the ground, sparks flew.

The vehicle was out of control, spinning on the ground and rushing into the grass.

After the car stopped, Lin Zixuan got out of the car in a daze. Seeing that the two solid tires on the wheels were gone, he covered his forehead. It seemed that he had completely forgotten about the tire problem! Although he knew that it was impossible to play racing without a flat tire, this was too painful.

Liyue's tire technology may need a major upgrade.

When Uncle Fu and other technicians saw the accident, they quickly started the crystal car at the door and rushed over. They also saw the situation but did not dare to say anything for fear of being scolded by Lin Zixuan.

"There's no need to be so frightened, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't distinguish right from wrong.

This racing crystal engine is better than I thought. It's just that it's too powerful and too advanced, and it's not suitable for now.

Liyue's existing technology cannot allow this tiger to display its full strength in the arena, and it will take some time for it to be shown to the world.

Therefore, the racing engines used in this year's competition can only be downgraded! "

"Demotion?" Everyone looked at each other.

"Yes, I just checked the condition of these solid tires carefully. They have limited bearing capacity. I estimate that the upper limit is about 100 horsepower.

As for the tires, I will let the people at the Liyue Research Institute develop a new version. Once it is successfully developed, this racing crystal engine will be presented to the world.

This crystal engine is still the strongest crystal engine for Liyue at present. Your achievements will also be recorded by special personnel. It will just be announced later, so don't take it too seriously.

In the future, Liyue will need 300-horsepower or 500-horsepower crystal engines. This 195-horsepower engine is just the beginning."

Lin Zixuan poured chicken soup into these technicians' mouths desperately, and nodded with satisfaction as he watched their spirits gradually recover. After assigning them some research topics, he left Mingyun Town.

When everyone saw Lin Zixuan leaving, they began to discuss.

"I thought I was going to die today. Two major mistakes in a row. It feels so good to be alive."

"What are you thinking about? Master Xuan is not that kind of person."

"You know nothing. Fortunately, the two failures today were not serious. What if Master Xuan bumped into the wall and got injured? What do you think Tianquanxing Ningguang would think?"

"By the way, can this thing hurt Master Xuan?"

"Uh...it seems like I really can't do it."

"In fact, Master Xuan is in a very good mood today. Didn't you hear him say, 'Too advanced, can only be downgraded.' This sentence can only be heard at the Xianfu Technology R&D Center."

Uncle Fu looked at everyone and smiled.

"Yes, Master is very happy today. Xianxin has developed to the third generation of technology products, but the market is still using the first generation of technology.

The first generation of fairy chips that were ready for sale were also cut into more than a dozen models by him. The programmers were stunned and called his behavior "Master Xuan's knife skills".

Today he came in person to test the crystal engine for the competition, which is actually a recognition of your Eighth Koi Group.

So, the next step is to use the latest technology to produce this 100-horsepower racing crystal engine. Let it be written into history with you.”

"Yes!"

......

In the small villa.

"What's wrong? I always felt that you were very happy today?" Ningguang looked at someone humming an unknown tune.

"Of course. The people of Liyue are very smart. They have built a 195-horsepower crystal engine. Although it is not as powerful as the Ruins Heavy, it is now almost on par with the output power of the Ruins Guard."

"Does that mean many devices are about to receive major updates?"

"No, I want to take it slow. Over the years, we have often mobilized the whole country. This has led to a major problem that cannot be ignored. It will take time to solve this major problem."

"What's the big deal?"

"Some technologies cannot keep up with the updates of other technologies. When we went to Mingyun Town to test the engine this time, we discovered this big problem. The tires of our crystal car can't keep up with the development of the engine."

"tire?"

"Well, I had missed this point all along, after all, I only occasionally drive on cement roads, which are basically not bumpy, and I also adjust the vehicle suspension to be very soft.

The solid tires used on these spar cars are also reaching the point of retirement. It’s time for pneumatic tires to develop.”

"Can the tires still be inflated?" Ningguang looked curious. After all, Liyue had been using wooden wheels for so many years.

"This pneumatic tire can save a lot of rubber materials and will be more comfortable when driving on cement roads. If it is successfully developed, the manufacturing cost will be lower and a new tire industry will be developed."

"New tire industry?" Ningguang suddenly became interested.

"This pneumatic tire is good in every way, but there is one problem that cannot be ignored: it is afraid of being pierced by nails."

"Isn't that just like a balloon? It won't explode and cause a major accident, right?"

"Well... maybe."

"It would be better to use the solid one we have now." Ningguang sighed, her joy was in vain.

"It should be said that there are trade-offs. Solid tires and pneumatic tires actually have their own advantages. The rubber used to make a solid tire can make almost four or five pneumatic tires."

"Pneumatic tires will burst! How can we accept that?" Ningguang complained.

Lin Zixuan was a little speechless when he saw Ningguang only focusing on the shortcomings of the pneumatic tire. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to use his ultimate weapon.

"In fact, the biggest benefit is that you can make a lot of money."

"Really?" Ningguang looked at someone with suspicion.
