Is there something wrong with playing Pokémon in Genshin Impact?

The picture on the illustrated book began to rotate continuously. Finally, it stopped on a ball.

Zhongli frowned and subconsciously wanted to continue to draw. After all, this ball didn't look strong at all.

But before taking action, he hesitated for a moment, handed the illustration to Li Pan, and decided to ask Li Pan's opinion first.

"Boss Li, what is this ball?"

球?

Li Pan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the manager's illustrated handbook disapprovingly. After all, most of the Pokémon with the word "ball" in their names were not very strong.

But when he saw the round shark shown in the illustration, his eyes suddenly widened.

Zhongli was stunned when he saw this.

Is that ball really powerful?

"Boss Li, is this ball...very strong?"

"Mr. Zhongli, this is not a question of strength or not, this ball... ugh, this Pokémon is called Land Shark, it's a quasi-god of both the Dragon and Ground types!

"

At this moment, even someone as calm as Zhongli couldn't help but widen his eyes. He pointed at the shark in the illustration.

"Boss Li, you just said this is a dragon?"

Zhongli began to doubt his life. How could this thing look like a dragon?

"That's right. The Round Land Shark is a real dragon, and a quasi-god-level dragon at that. What do you think, Mr. Zhongli, do you want to buy it?"

Li Pan nodded and said solemnly.

Hearing this, Zhongli took a deep breath and rubbed his eyebrows.

"Buy it, and send the bill to... no, to the General Affairs Department. Ask Boss Li to tell them what happened, and they will know what to do."

Zhongli originally wanted to say to send it to the Wangsheng Hall, but when he thought about how Hall Master Hu had been frowning and calculating the bills during this period, trying to find out why the money in the Wangsheng Hall was getting less and less, Zhongli changed the subject and directly said to send it to the General Affairs Department.

As long as the people in the General Affairs Department are not fools, they can understand what a quasi-god means.

"Got it, Land Cloud. Sorry to bother you with the trip."

Li Pan smiled and wrote another bill and handed it to Tudiyun.

And the land cloud also flew away in a flash.

Not long after, Li Pan came out from the backyard leading a chubby little shark. The mouth of this guy alone took up half the size of its body.

Looking at the clumsy appearance of the round land shark, Zhongli fell into deep thought.

Is this thing really a dragon?

【Round land shark】

[Attributes: Dragon, Ground]

[Level: 5]

[Features: Sand Hiding (It will be harder to be discovered in sandstorm weather)]

[Land Shark Pokémon used to live in tropical areas and lived in warm cellars to avoid the cold. 】

[Skills: Impact, Quicksand Hell, Metal Claw]

The voice of the illustrated guide came, and everyone's attention was focused on the silly ball.

"Is this a quasi-god? From the looks of it, I really can't tell."

Wendy came over and pinched the round land shark's tail out of curiosity, which made the round land shark scream in anger and opened its mouth wide to bite Wendy.

This was the first time he had seen a living quasi-god, a species that was said to have demon-god-level potential.

"Boss Li, if both are at the same level, which one is stronger, the final form of the Round Shark or Bangira?"

Wendy dodged the round land shark's attack again and asked Li Pan curiously.

"Although all quasi-gods have the potential to be as powerful as demon gods, they are divided into different levels, and the Round Land Shark is the strongest among them."

Li Pan is not talking nonsense. The extremely exaggerated racial value distribution of Garchomp has already shown how strong this guy is.

After hearing what Li Pan said, Wendy and Zhongli nodded in understanding and felt a little relieved.

"Okay, now that we're done here, we'll take our leave."

Ignoring Venti's resentful look, Zhongli took back the Round Land Shark, said goodbye to Li Pan, and left the shop with Tartaglia.

"Hey, Zhongli, you got a great bargain this time."

After walking out of the store, Wendy couldn't help but circle around Zhongli, while Kapok Ball sat on his head and watched the scene with a smile.

"It can't be called a big bargain. After all, it takes time to cultivate a quasi-god."

Zhongli explained without changing his expression.

"It seems like you're a little bored too."

Wendy's face was filled with emotion, and he meant something. He might be the only person of the same generation as Zhongli in the world. Wendy could be said to be very familiar with this old friend of hers.

The current Zhongli has obviously changed a little bit from before, and seems to be more human than before.

Chapter 76: The Young Master Returns a Favor, a Vast Amount of Crystal Mines

"Even the strongest rock will become fragile under the wear and tear of time, and so will I."

Zhongli said softly. In front of his old friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he didn't need to hide his tiredness.

After hearing this, Wendy, who had been laughing all the time, fell silent. In this world, who can escape from wear and tear? Even the seven gods as powerful as them cannot escape the constraints of time. Even he, the wind god who advocates freedom, can only avoid wear and tear by sleeping.

But is freedom, when you are forced to sleep most of the time, really freedom?

"Mi~"

The kapok ball that fell on Wendy's head made a puzzled sound. Its little head couldn't understand why the harmonious atmosphere just now suddenly became so heavy.

And this voice successfully broke the deadlock between the two.

Wendy was stunned for a moment, then took the kapok ball off her head with a look of joy.

"Old man, do you still remember what Tudiyun said?"

Zhongli nodded. Tudiyun had said many things to him, but he immediately understood which sentence Wendy was referring to.

"I was born when the world's first farmland was cleared, so it says."

"When the first piece of farmland was reclaimed, it was a long time ago." Wendy said with some nostalgia. Even though he was the first generation of the Wind God, Wendy had never witnessed the scene of the first piece of farmland being reclaimed. After saying this, he was silent for a moment, and then he said: "There are no signs of wear and tear on it."

Zhongli nodded, saying nothing.

They both knew that the way to break the wear and tear was probably on the Pokémon's body.

This is also the reason why Venti and Zhongli are so supportive of Li Pan in popularizing Pokémon.

"Um... where is this place?"

At this time, Tartaglia, who was floating beside Wendy in the breeze, suddenly sat up, rubbing his head, and looked around blankly.

"Hey, you're awake? The operation was successful, and you're a lovely girl now."

Wendy smiled and leaned over to say.

Suddenly, Tartaglia's pupils shrank, and his eyes were filled with visible fear.

The next moment, he turned over and jumped up, feeling his body quickly, fearing that some parts were missing or extra.

After a while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was neither too much nor too little.

After coming back to his senses, Tartaglia realized that he had been deceived and looked at Wendy unhappily.

"Who are you? Also, wasn't I fighting Yan Di just now? How did I get here?"

"Sir, you were seriously injured and unconscious just now. Thanks to my friend from Mondstadt, you were rescued."

At this time, Zhongli stood up and spoke.

Listening to Zhongli's description, the memory just now was slowly recalled.

"I see. The flame of the Divine Lord Phoenix? It's incredibly powerful."

Tartaglia clenched his fists with a wry smile, his body still vaguely feeling the pain of being burned by the flames.

The image of the firebird piercing through the giant whale with overwhelming force is still vivid in my mind.

At this time, he performed the winter ceremony to Wendy.

"My friend, please tell me your name. If you need my help in the future, please let me know."

Hearing this, Wendy smiled and raised the cotton ball in her hand, pointing at Tartaglia's pocket.

"My name is Wendy, and I need your help with something right now. I bought a Pokémon at the Pokémon House. Look, it's this cotton ball, but I don't have money to pay for it, so I have to ask you to help pay the bill. The bill is in your pocket."

Tartaglia quickly searched his pockets and took out a bill, but after seeing the balance on the back, his expression suddenly became a little strange.

"Why, you don't want to regret it, do you? After all, you are a wealthy and powerful fool, you can't be unable to come up with this little money, right?"

Wendy laughed teasingly.

Tartaglia smiled bitterly: "No, Wendy, you may not know my identity. My name is Tartaglia, and I am the executive officer of the Fatui, codenamed Young Master. Do you understand what I mean? You don't need to waste my promise here for this little money."

Tartaglia was still very confident in his identity. After all, he was one of the Fatui's executive officers, representing the power and grace of the Ice Queen. In the entire Teyvat continent, there were countless people who wanted to get a favor from the Fatui's executive officer even if it meant losing everything they had. But Wendy actually used up this precious promise for just over 400,000 Mora?

"It's okay, it's okay. All I need now is for you to pay the money for me."

Wendy still looked out of tune. Tartaglia took a deep breath and turned his gaze to Zhongli, wanting to ask Mr. Zhongli for advice.

But Zhongli just nodded to him.

This is really confusing. What does this mean? Am I, an executive officer of the Fatui, so shameless?

"Okay, Wendy, we at Northland Bank will pay for this. At the same time, you can take this money to various branches of Northland Bank to withdraw all the resources needed for the cultivation of Kapok Ball."

Tartaglia took off the mask on his head and handed it to Wendy, saying solemnly.

As an executive, his life is more than enough to raise a Pokémon.

Suddenly, Wendy's eyes lit up and he quickly took the mask. At this moment, the first thing he thought of was not the energy cube for Kapok Ball, but to use the money to buy wine. He didn't know how much Mora he could withdraw from the Northland Bank with this thing, and how much cider he could buy.

"Thank you very much."

Wendy thanked Tartaglia in surprise. Seeing Wendy like this, Tartaglia finally showed a smile on his face.

……

A huge abyss of rock.

"Nice job, Snakebear!"

Ah Da, who was wearing a miner's uniform, took a piece of crystal from the serpentine bear and put it directly into his chest pocket. Then he picked up the dirty serpentine bear and gave it a kiss, not caring about the black dust on this guy's body at all.

“Pattern…Pattern…”

The serpentine bear struggled to jump out of Ada's arms and began to dance and gesture.

"You mean... there's a lot of this ore right now?"

Ada asked vaguely.

“Wave, waave, waave!”

The serpentine bear's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly, looking at Ah Da with a teachable look.

At this time, Lord A was completely dumbfounded. He stood there in a daze, talking about crystal mine over and over.

Seeing this, the serpentine bear circled around him anxiously. Finally, with no other choice, it bit his calf.

"Ouch!"

The bite made Ah Da jump up in pain, but fortunately, it also made him wake up immediately.

Chapter 77: Traces in the Abyss, Communicating with the Dragon King’s Past

"Serpentine Bear, take me there to have a look."

After waking up, Ada didn't care about the pain and quickly asked the serpentine bear to take him to the place where the crystal mine was found.
