In fact, he wanted to make a fog cut for Keqing, but Xie Yan had not yet fully understood the structure of the five-star weapon. It was fine to use it as a consumable, but long-term use might cause the weapon to break, which would be a scam.
After much thought, Xie Yan projected a refined 5th-level Xia Li Long Yin onto Keqing. This weapon was seen in the general's collection (the collection included weapons from various countries), and Xie Yan took note of it.
Keqing went to the open space outside to try out the new weapon. Not long after, she took out 200 million Mora from her pocket and handed it to Xie Yan with satisfaction.
Xie Yan could sense that even if he and Keqing were not familiar with each other, she would not bargain. He could only say that she was indeed a wealthy woman. Just the action of giving money made him feel as if he was being kept by her.
“Ahem, I’ll go back first then. Next time we meet... don’t let me down.” Keqing hurried back to take a shower.
Just now, Xie Yan also told her that he was leaving, but Keqing didn't care. She trusted Xie Yan more than Ningguang.
34 Ye Lan wants to be tortured
Ye Lan was really professional in forging identities. Xie Yan took a special look before changing his clothes. The clothes of the scholars of the Ordinance Academy were exactly the same from the fabric to the details. They fit him well when he put them on, as if they were tailor-made.
The several wardrobes in the room are even more outrageous. Most of the costumes of nobles, civilians and various professions from various countries can be found here, as if you have come to a clothing exhibition room.
There is no doubt that this is one of Ye Lan’s secret bases.
However, the location of this place is not in the wilderness, but in a residential area near Chihuyan Street.
Unlike the game where there are only one or two rows of houses, the area around Chihuyan Street and Wanmin Hall is considered the old town of Liyue. It has a very large population and there are also many foreigners who come to Liyue to work.
Xie Yan was quite puzzled at first, but after thinking carefully, he realized that this kind of area with extremely high population mobility is indeed suitable for hiding. If he really built the base in the wilderness, if he happened to encounter a treasure chest killer like Yingmei, the hideout would be destroyed.
Apart from anything else, if he really took Yingmei back to his own Kanjo Bugyofu, she might even find Mora that he had placed in the closet. In that case, Xie Yan would have to inject her with Inazuma's patriotic genes to replenish her energy.
Walking out of the room, Ye Lan was playing with the gloves.
When she saw Xie Yan coming out, she stopped and asked leisurely, "How is it? Does the dress still fit?"
"That's fine, but how did you know my size? By eye?"
"As a professional intelligence officer, it would be too embarrassing if I couldn't even see the target's figure clearly."
Ye Lan didn't seem to care much. To her, this was indeed just a basic skill.
Xie Yan admired Ye Lan very much. Many adventurers did not have as much experience as Ye Lan. After all, she not only traveled around the seven countries, but also went to dangerous places specifically to enjoy pleasure in the thrills and excitement.
Wait, this thing looks like an s, could it be an m?
Putting on the gloves again, Ye Lan began to explain the precautions.
"Since you have the ability to influence the void, as long as you don't behave too outrageously when you get there, no one will doubt you. To put it bluntly, most of the people in Xumi have been spoiled by the void."
"I can't help you with academic matters. Although I know some channels for academic fraud and ghostwriting, the disciplinary officers there are very strict. There's no need to cause trouble for yourself. Anyway, I don't think you want to go in and write a paper."
"As for the subsequent traces, that's fine. Asking you to meet at a place like the dock was actually one of my arrangements. After you leave, I will set up a trap for the Fatui and intelligence personnel from various countries. After they investigate, they will find out that you went to Jueyunjian to practice immortal arts."
Xie Yan calmed down and was quite surprised: "Can it be like this?"
"For intelligence personnel, information that is too easy to obtain will make them suspicious, but if it is based on their own reasoning, it will be different."
"Thank you very much. Actually, I'm not particularly worried. I just want to create some time difference. Now I'm mainly worried about another thing."
How should I put it? Compared to the problem with the World Tree, the Mountain-Severing Sword is really not a big deal.
Xie Yan had never worried about the combat capability of the Church of God. He could deal with a group of thirty people by himself, and he also had a legitimate reason. If the Church of God wanted to cheat, he would use Wuxiang's sword to loosen the soil of Xumi City... No matter how poor Inazuma was, it was still a nuclear country. Xumi at this moment had no qualifications to fight against it, so Ying also said to do whatever they wanted, and she would take care of it if anything happened.
The main concern before was that the doctor would discover that something was wrong and run away with the things. After all, the Mountain-Slaying Sword was only being forged, and its source was canned knowledge, so it would be too easy for him to take it away.
Indeed, Xie Yan could ask Ying to go to Zhidong Country to snatch it back, but since Zhidong Country wanted to fight against Tianli, it must have some trump cards. Even if Ying's strength has increased a lot now, he can't let his wife go to take this risk for Tianli. In essence, this is just a small matter that can be easily solved. There is no need to make such a big fuss and trigger a series of unknown consequences.
Especially now that Xie Yan has become a void administrator, as long as he sneaks into the Order Institute, it won't take him a few days to get this matter done. In comparison, the World Tree is the real big trouble.
Ye Lan did not ask any further questions. She said calmly, "Anyway, I have explained almost everything. You can just take a careful look at the information about your identity on the way."
At this point, Ye Lan asked curiously, "By the way, where is that blonde girl? She's not drunk and hasn't woken up yet, is she?"
"No, I did some morning exercises with her before we left."
"Morning exercise..."
Ye Lan chewed on the word, recalling Yingmei's shocking name yesterday, and couldn't help but imagine certain scenes in her mind.
Although we no longer have to worry about Xie Yan starting a family and a career, it seems that he is too good at having fun, right?
Seeing that she had misunderstood, Xie Yan immediately corrected her, "It's a serious morning exercise."
Ye Lan shook her head slightly. Both boyfriends and girlfriends call him dad. Is this serious?
Although Yingmei clarified that they were in a superior-subordinate relationship, Yelan didn't believe it because the other party had already taken the throne of promotion.
"Wait, I remember she said yesterday that she had a brother..." Ye Lan bit her lips lightly with a strange look on her face.
Xie Yan opened his mouth, but in the end, no words came out.
Indeed, until now, Xie Yan has not forgotten the expression Yingmei had after she sobered up yesterday: at first, her eyes were just a little confused, but when she thought of herself calling Xie Yan "Dad" in a cute, coquettish, and confused voice, her fair and flawless little face suddenly turned red, and she buried herself in the pillow like an ostrich.
You know what, Xie Yan thinks it’s really cute that Ying calls him dad. If he can say that during a party, it will be more effective... But the premise is that he can’t get used to it, otherwise, if she suddenly calls Xie Yan “dad” when they meet Brother Long, the scene will probably be extremely awkward.
Xie Yan could already imagine Brother Long leading the Abyss Singers to chase and hack him.
"Ahem, this matter is more complicated."
"It's okay, I understand. In fact, I think it's quite exciting."
Ye Lan pursed her lips, her eyes seemed filled with eagerness to try.
She is not young anymore and has always been busy looking for excitement in adventures. She doesn't have much understanding of love between men and women. But when she imagined the scene yesterday, she suddenly felt that this might be quite interesting. If she could add some "interrogation" elements, the effect might be better.
Seeing the excitement on Ye Lan's face, Xie Yan guessed in his heart that this guy might really be an M.
But time is running out now, so I should wait until next time to test Ye Lan's strength.
But before leaving, Ye Lan suddenly called him.
"You asked me yesterday what I needed as a reward. After thinking about it, I decided to tell you in advance. I want to go to the Layered Rock Abyss to retrieve a magic weapon called the Taiweiyi Disk for my ancestor. This journey may be extremely dangerous. It is said that when Yaksha heard the news and entered the Abyss, he disappeared without a trace."
"magic weapon?"
"That's right. Five hundred years ago, my ancestor got help from a master and carried a magic weapon to the battlefront of the Layered Rock Abyss. The situation was urgent at the time. My ancestor and a group of Thousand Rock Army soldiers were originally planning to use themselves as bait, but then True Lord Burning Heaven and Boiling Sea arrived in time, and the situation changed again."
Ye Lan roughly recounted the situation, and finally added: "Later, my ancestors wanted to go down to the abyss to look for the whereabouts of the True Lord and the Taiwei Plate, but in the end they found nothing... By the way, you also have a magic weapon that needs to be retrieved."
Damn, don’t tell me that our family’s magic weapon is a round fan that can bounce back attacks?
Xie Yan pressed his forehead and said, "Could this magic weapon be a fan?"
"No, it should be a magic sword. It is said that Master Fen Tian Zhu Hai attained enlightenment on Mount Xumi, and after returning to Liyue, he integrated his insights into the magic weapon." Ye Lan explained.
Well, it turns out to be the supreme imperial weapon?
Having said that, Xie Yan suddenly thought of the scene he witnessed in the World Tree. The power represented by the black flame was indeed the end of the sky and the sea, and it was a furnace that melted everything.
"I understand... This ancestor must have read the canned knowledge of [The Dawn Horizon that Burns the Seas], or the power of [Horizon]."
That being said, it is indeed necessary to take a trip to the Layered Chasm.
...
Sumeru.
In the underground workshop of the Church of the Holy Fathers.
The great sage Azar, dressed in luxurious purple clothes, walked slowly out of the passage, and behind him was the sage Khawaja of the School of Knowledge.
Both of them are old, with white hair and beards, but thanks to various nourishing and longevity medicines developed by scholars of the Life Theory School, their physical condition is actually better than that of many young people.
As high-ranking officials of the Church Order, this is only the most basic benefit. In the special country of Xumi, the power held by the two is even above that of gods. This is completely unimaginable in other countries.
but--
This is not enough.
Ever since the death of the Great Compassionate Tree King, Sumeru has been in decline for five hundred years.
Even though countless papers appear every year, wise men all know that most of them have no academic value at all. This is just the prosperity that the city of wisdom shows to outsiders.
Regarding this point, almost every great sage of the Court of Deputies has the same idea: Gods are beings far superior to humans, and only Gods can guide the people of Xumi in the direction of progress and illuminate the darkness of the road to study.
The previous grass god, Dacishuwang, was undoubtedly such a great god.
It was the creation of the rainforest that enabled the people of Xumi to live a peaceful life.
It protects the people and keeps them from being harassed by monsters.
It is the spread of wisdom that enables the people of Xumi to climb to the peak of knowledge.
No matter which one it was, the new god was unable to do it, and instead brought confusion to the scholars.
The education that Azar received from childhood to adulthood, and the textbooks he read were all about praising the greatness of the Great Kindness Tree King. After he became a great sage and personally met the newborn young god, he agreed more with the views of his predecessors.
Provide relief to the people? Control the sandstorms? Make up those ridiculous fairy tales? How can such a mascot inherit the legacy and status of the Great Kind Tree King?
As the withering of the World Tree has become increasingly serious over the years, the dead zone, sandstorms and various abnormal celestial phenomena are all indicating that Xumi is about to face a huge storm.
Azar, who thinks he is at the pinnacle of academia and on the path to salvation, is thinking all the time about how to lead Xumi through the crisis and eliminate the disaster... But perhaps it was God's blessing. A year ago, they discovered a canned knowledge of God containing endless mysteries from the legacy of a certain scholar.
Without any hesitation, Azar "nationalized" the inheritance and continuously analyzed it by integrating the wisdom of the residents through the void. Unfortunately, the power and mystery contained therein were too strong. It took more than half a year, and Xumi's accumulated foundation and wealth for countless generations, to barely piece together the shell of the sword.
In terms of power, he gained almost nothing, except the name of the weapon: [Verdant Horizon that Opens Up a Thousand Mountains].
But this was just the beginning of the research. For this reason, Azar even agreed to let the scholar who was expelled from the Council of the Faith, who is now the second-in-command of the Fatui, "Doctor", join the project, even though he knew that the other party had bad intentions.
Fortunately, everything was worth it. Dotole brought the money and technology of the Fatui. With the joint efforts of both sides, the Order was about to decipher a trace of power. Even if it was only a drop in the bucket, it represented their victory.
And recently, a god-made doll and a god's heart were provided as research materials, allowing the project to enter a new stage: creating a god!
This process is mutually reinforcing. Since they had obtained the Mountain-Slaying Sword before, they had a very deep understanding of forging the armor of the gods. The materials could also be found from the leftover scraps of the sword. Except for the canned knowledge which took some effort, the other processes were easy.
"If humans cannot reach omniscience and omnipotence, then create gods to reveal it."
Azar looked fanatical as he looked up at the God of Righteousness in the center of the workshop, who was emitting a faint glow of lightning, and the divine sword that was nearly a hundred meters long and had dark green patterns on it.
Betrayed God?
No, from the very beginning, he had never believed in the little auspicious grass king.
35 Ke Lai: Watch me fight against evil 5K chapter
Not only him, but also Kawaja was looking at the armor and weapons of the god in shock, his eyes full of obsession.
Only by personally participating in this project of god-making and feeling the power of the gods gathering little by little in your hands can you know what a great undertaking this is.
Great Kindness Tree King?
No, they want to surpass the Great Compassionate Tree King.
As for the little auspicious grass king who was imprisoned in Jingshan Palace... maybe he is indeed a little pitiful, but who made you so weak?
Neither he nor Hazard realized what a mistake they had made, nor did they realize that they, who claimed to be at the pinnacle of human wisdom, were actually just a group of pitiful people lacking faith.
They still live in the glory of the past Great Compassionate Tree King, enjoying the convenience brought by the void, and want the gods to continue to guide and protect themselves. Therefore, they are so disappointed when they see the little Auspicious Grass King who is like a child.
But the two would never admit this, they are now completely obsessed with power and believe they can control everything.
Azar glanced at the armor of the God of Righteousness, and his gaze quickly fell on the Mountain-Slaying Sword.
Even though he was unwilling, he had to admit that if he ignored the special nature of the Great Compassionate Tree King as the incarnation of the World Tree, the power of [Horizon] contained in the Mountain-Slashing Sword was far greater than the dream power he possessed.
This is not an empty talk. Azar thinks he is still loyal to the Great Compassion Tree King, but according to his and Dotore's research, [Horizon] can be regarded as part of the power of creation. If the fields of [Horizontal Line] and [Life] can be supplemented, then it is simply on the path of the God of Creation.
"Perhaps, this is the legacy that the Great Compassion Tree King left me?" Azar thought shamelessly.
Of course, things are not that simple. The shell of the Mountain-Slaying Sword that Xumi put all his efforts to piece together is actually a pirated one, and there are still many places that need to be completed. Even if a trace of power can be deciphered in the near future, it can only be used as a makeshift method, and the reaction of the Fatui must also be considered in the middle.
Thinking of this, Azar's expression changed several times, and he snorted gloomily: "If it weren't for the fact that they provided research materials, I would have expelled these people from Xumi long ago!"
The Fatui have been seeking to seize power related to the demon gods in other countries, and this is something known to all countries. However, seeing that the Fatui seemed to be in an empty space in Mount Sumeru, this great sage certainly felt annoyed.
It's not that he felt pity for the children who were abducted by the Fatui for human experiments, he just thought it was embarrassing.
Khawaja nodded in agreement and said, "The Fatui are indeed too arrogant. Fortunately, we have made arrangements in advance. As the highest masterpiece of the six major schools, the God of Righteousness will always belong to us Xumi."
The reason why the sages are so obsessed with the god-making plan and god-made weapons is not only because they want to regain the guidance of the God of Wisdom, but also because they want to resolve the crisis of the World Tree.
The withering of the world tree in recent years has had a huge impact on Xumi. They can ignore the sandstorms, but there are more and more dead areas in the rainforest, and sooner or later it will affect the city.
They certainly didn't create the God of Righteousness to pave the way for the Fatui. They had already buried multiple backdoors, and they also had a final insurance: canned knowledge, which was used to control the scattered soldiers at the last moment.
The two did not avoid mentioning the scattered soldiers in the control center of the God of Righteousness during their conversation. The other party had already fallen into a deep sleep due to the power of the Heart of God.
Moreover, both of them still remember how miserable Sanbing was on the day he was brought back by the doctor. His body was tattered, his eyes were extremely empty, and he kept muttering "As long as I have the Heart of God...". I don't know who has left him with this psychological trauma.
It is precisely for this reason that, in Hazard's eyes, the opponent is no different from the little lucky grass king, and they are both objects that can be manipulated at will.
The two continued to discuss how to improve the mecha and analyze the power, but the conversation came to an abrupt end when footsteps were heard in the distant passage.
