Original God, I am the only designated Red King God Envoy of Xumi

Melk and Asheng quickly suppressed their excitement - they had not thought of this trick. This is often the case. The breakthrough is there, but many people simply don't think about it.

As time passed, the expression on Prito's face became uglier and uglier. This test paper was very well designed. All the knowledge points related to scientific breeding methods, including some knowledge points extended from it, were recorded on this test paper. It was probably written by a scholar with extremely rich knowledge reserves.

This was exactly the reason why Singh appeared from the House of Religious Orders earlier. After asking, he learned that Geller was still in the House of Religious Orders, so he went to find him with the research report obtained with the help of his connections. After Singh explained the reason, Geller readily gave him a test paper, and Singh copied the test paper twice.

Facts proved that Singh's direction was correct and his guess was also correct. Half an hour passed quickly. Melk and Singh couldn't wait to hand in their test papers. When it was Prieto's turn, he was already sweating profusely. Despair enveloped him little by little during this half hour. He didn't have much knowledge in this area, so how could he compare with the actual discoverer of this result.

The Faith has never tolerated such academic crimes. This time, he will be sentenced to at least three years in prison, or even expelled from the Faithful Court and will never be employed again.

Waves of regret enveloped Prito's heart, but what he regretted was that he should not have chosen Asheng and Melk as prey, not that he should not have had such greed and committed this crime.

He regretted that he had hit a wall this time, provoking the wrong people—he had never imagined these two guys could be so capable! A few hours ago, he had no idea that Singer, the disciplinary officer in Xumi City known for his ruthlessness, was Asheng's uncle!

"Damn it! I plead guilty!" Prito threw the test paper away neatly. Since he couldn't escape it, he might as well plead guilty openly. Maybe he could get a reduced sentence.

"Confess? It's too late to confess. Even if you confess now, it won't reduce your crime even a little bit." Singh's calm tone fell into Preeto's ears like a gust of cold wind, extinguishing his only remaining hope.

"According to Article 8 of Chapter 4 of the Fatwa, the so-called voluntary confession of guilt and the resulting reduction in sentence only applies before the disciplinary officers have obtained conclusive evidence. In other words, now that I have conclusive evidence, your confession is irrelevant, and naturally, you will not be able to obtain a reduction in sentence."

"Hahaha, you deserve it!" Asheng and Melk laughed in glee, and at this time Singer's eyes without any personal emotion also looked at the two of them.

"Don't be too happy. According to Chapter 15, Article 500, Section 1000 of the Fatwa, those who engage in group fighting shall be detained for days, receive education, and be fined between and yuan."

"Considering that you two are students nearing graduation, I can consider amending the sentence and sentence you both to 15 days of suspended detention. After you have resolved the issues related to your graduation thesis, you will come here for a full day of religious education and pay a fine of 1000 Mora each."

As he said that, Singer opened the iron gate and let the two out. Melk and Asheng looked at each other and bowed solemnly to Singer and the disciplinary officer beside him to express their gratitude.

"Alright, forget about all the formalities. Remember not to be so impulsive next time. I've already sent someone to terminate the review of the paper Prieto submitted. You two will receive a letter tomorrow at the latest. Just follow the instructions in the letter."

After Singh finished speaking, he waved his hand, signaling the two to leave quickly and not to interfere with his official business.

A Sheng politely said that he would visit again another day, and walked out of the office quickly with Melk. Singh now turned his gaze to Prieto, who looked as pale as death. He opened the iron door and took out the test paper. He looked at Prieto with a slightly warning look, then locked the iron door again and took a look at the test paper in his hand.

As expected, Asheng got very high marks, while Prito had large blanks. However, Melk just barely passed. Singh did not bother to care about this behavior which was probably just a nominal one. It did not violate the decree, but was somewhat unethical and did not conform to the academic style advocated by the Fatwa Institute.

"Okay, now it's time to take notes. Confess everything you did during the entire incident. If you conceal anything, you will receive a heavier punishment later." Singer sat back in his chair, took the pen and paper from the disciplinary officer beside him, and prepared to take notes.

Prito, feeling disheartened, had no choice but to confess everything he had done.

The whole thing came to an end with astonishing efficiency, and the punishments that Melk and Asheng deserved for their attacks on their mentor were also handed down.

Considering that Prieto was the first to commit the crime, the Apostolic Court may have taken into account the possible negative impact of the two being deprived of graduation qualifications despite being victims, and only gave them a light punishment - they did not even lose the qualification to compete for outstanding graduates.

This incident also caused some waves in Xumi City. Because the current disciplinary officers changed the way they handled reports, the cost of reporting was greatly reduced, which invisibly increased the risks of academic crimes and significantly reduced the crime rate.

The leader of the whole incident, Prito, was expelled from the Council of Eminence and lost his qualifications as a scholar. From then on, he would no longer have any place to stand in the academic capital of Xumi City.

The value of Asheng's research results is obvious to all, and he finally achieved extremely high results. The two of them successfully became outstanding graduates of that year.

After Asheng and Melk met with Melk's parents, and Melk sincerely expressed his demands, he successfully obtained the right to make his own choice. Seeing that even five years in the oratory had not been able to smooth over his son's desire for the outside world, and that it had even become more intense, Melk's father no longer interfered, but just told him together with Melk's mother to be careful.

"Leaving so early? Not having a party?" Gabriel looked at Asheng who was carrying a package and Melk who was standing beside him. Asheng just waved his hand when he heard that.

"No, thank you for your care over the past few years. However, I still need to guide Melk and show him the Desert Adventurers' Branch, so I won't stay any longer!"

"Okay, when I get back, we'll get together again when we have time." Gabriel said goodbye to the two with a smile.

In a flash, more than five years of student life have passed. Even today, he still feels quite emotional. Gabriel looked at the sky, and he seemed to have returned to the first day in an instant. The day when he first came here, he was not used to the environment of Xumi City and couldn't sleep, so he ran to the road to watch the stars in the middle of the night.

"This time, let me accomplish our common goal, Youfei." Gabriel took a deep breath and turned back to the tavern. After today's pre-departure gathering of the Sand People scholars, they should all return to the desert and contribute their part to its well-being.

In the tavern, at the table filled with this year's graduating Sand People, there was an hourglass in front of each of them. The farewell gift made by the messenger of God and preserved to this day symbolized their will and that they had never forgotten their hometown.

——Now, it’s time to go home!

Chapter 8: Investment

"Your Excellency the Envoy of God, I have heard of your great name for a long time. Even though I am far away in Fontaine, I often see your many deeds, which are truly admirable." In the reception room of the Chi Nian clan, a man dressed in Fontaine clothing saluted Amber respectfully, and Amber nodded slightly in greeting.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a moment before getting down to business. The man from the neighboring country of Fontaine showed considerable respect, not only out of admiration for Amber, but also largely because Amber had offered him "sponsorship" in her personal capacity.

This was like holding his lifeline! In Fontaine, there was an educational institution in mechanical engineering that was no less prestigious than the Ordinariate. He was an outstanding graduate a year ago, but due to some unexpected circumstances, he was suppressed. He had a lot of talent but could not display it, and he couldn't find a "mentor" who would appreciate him.

"I have heard of you. Before this, I reached an agreement with a clothing factory in Fontaine and ordered several batches of clothing. These clothes are now everywhere in the wind-eroded land. The person I contacted mentioned your deeds." Amber told the story of how she met this person, and the Fontaine craftsman named Green nodded continuously when he heard it.

"I heard you were marginalized. Although you have a lot of talent, you have nowhere to display it. You are truly a hidden gem. It would be a pity if such a talent were to be forgotten. So I wrote to you, hoping you could come and help me research a 'big project'."

"Excuse me, Lord God's Envoy, what is the project?" Green's face was flushed, and it could be seen that he was very excited at the moment. He had been suppressed for too long in Fontaine because he accidentally provoked some people. That was why he immediately found a way to come to Xumi because of this letter to meet with this God's Envoy.

There is an old saying in Liyue: Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, and Green feels that he is that person at this moment. Faced with the "opportunity" given by Amber, he must seize it firmly!

"Looking across Teyvat, international transactions always require large ships to cross the ocean and reach ports in various countries. However, land transportation is much more troublesome. Conventional transportation methods are restricted by road conditions and always require detours, which greatly prolongs the entire transportation process. In contrast, if there were a means of transportation that could ignore terrain to a certain extent, it would be much more convenient."

"A means of transportation that ignores terrain?" Green fell into deep thought. He was originally wondering what kind of big project it would be, but he never thought it would be such a big project to develop new products. Throughout history, developing new products has always been the most troublesome, because they are facing an unknown and need to conduct a lot of trial and error, and the funds required are often difficult to estimate.

"Yes, I think you can refer to the new means of transportation that has appeared in recent years - the hot air balloon. I need you to build a larger hot air balloon that can carry more cargo and fly higher."

"...I understand!" Green's ability is obviously excellent. With Amber's suggestion, he understood the idea proposed by Amber in just a moment. The so-called transport hot air balloon is to fill the airbag with a certain amount of gas with a density lower than that of air, so that it can have enough lift to carry the transport structure underneath. Because it can float in the air at a certain height, it can also directly cross obstacles that conventional means of transportation cannot cross, thus gaining a certain market.

It is entirely possible to make it bigger and improve it, so that it can meet Amber's requirements of conquering the sky, completely ignoring all obstacles on the land below, and achieving the optimal transportation route for transportation, which is a super-large hot air balloon. Green can fully understand its prospects.

The current hot air balloon used for transportation is just an experimental product of the Adventurer's Association. As a result, it stimulated some memories of Amber. She thought of the tool called "airship" that existed in her previous life, and therefore had the idea of ​​investing in others to design airships.

If her technology matures, Amber can even open a logistics company and engage in cross-border transportation. In this way, even if she officially retires and resigns from her duties as the leader of the Chi Nian Federation, she will still have a stable career - but these are relatively far away, and no one can predict what the future will be like.

"Are you confident you can handle these?" Amber looked at Green, her fingers crossed and folded together, an invisible majesty emanating from her.

"Of course! I just think I need some time, combined with my understanding of the current hot air balloons used for transportation... six months! A year at most! I have the confidence to design and manufacture a prototype!" Green showed the confidence that a genius should have. He was quite proud of his abilities and felt that this would not be a problem.

"Okay, then we will draft a contract on the spot. In addition, these are some of my personal research, which I think should be of some inspiration to you." Amber handed a booklet to Green. Green was not in a hurry to read it and put it away first. The two quickly drafted a contract and signed their names. Then Amber arranged for someone to send Green to the prepared house, and stated that if he had any experimental expenses, he could apply directly to Yi or her.

Green came to the house prepared by Amber with some residual excitement. After quickly packing up his luggage, he devoted himself to research. He took out the booklet that Amber had given him before and began to read it with some curiosity.

"......!" What was recorded in it surprised Green. It was about elemental power - to be more precise, it was research on wind elemental power. It described in detail the characteristics of wind elemental power under normal conditions, how to extract and store wind elemental power, and even how to prepare gaseous, liquid and even solid wind elemental power. Just as Amber had imagined at the beginning, this was indeed a great inspiration to Green.

Elemental force exists naturally throughout Teyvat, and many seek to harness it, though most have only been able to do so to a limited extent. Wind, in particular, possesses all the properties of airflow, such as the ability to propel objects like airflow. It also possesses mass and density. This means that if the air filling an airbag were replaced with wind, and the concentration of wind could be altered mechanically...

——The entire transport hot air balloon can be “raised and lowered”.

If a stable jet structure is added on this basis, effects such as turning, moving forward, and accelerating can be achieved. The booklet given by the envoy of God has already given the transformation relationship between the wind element force in the invisible, gaseous, liquid and even solid states. For a moment, Green was surprised that since the envoy of God had researched to this point, why did he still invest in himself.

But Green soon understood. Admittedly, the research recorded in the booklet were outstanding achievements in alchemy or the Sulun School of the Order, but these were not enough to be used directly in hot air balloons. Hot air balloons for transportation should have reliable "stability" and "safety". At present, no technology can compare with Fontaine Technology's achievements in this regard. Green has absolute confidence in Fontaine's technology!

Then what he needs to do now is very clear, which is to apply this transformation of the wind element to machinery and use stable machinery to control the entire hot air balloon.

Thinking of this, Green was suddenly filled with inspiration like a tide, and quickly picked up a pen to write and draw on the paper.

……

"Aren't you going to ask Falushan for such research?" In the conference room after Green left, Aji sat on Amber's shoulder and chatted with her. Amber just smiled and responded when she heard what he said.

"They're in different fields. Falushan is more proficient in ancient mechanisms. She's probably currently conducting research on 'rehabilitation mechanisms' and the subsequent development of 'relic exploration support equipment.'"

Speaking of Falusan, Amber hadn't seen her for quite a while. Ever since Falusan received the letter from Tamimi, she returned to the House of the Decree the next day to repair Tamimi.

Tamimi's rehabilitation mechanism was damaged to a certain extent. Falusan repaired the damage, but she also began to worry about what would happen if one day the rehabilitation mechanism was damaged beyond repair. So she came up with the idea of ​​studying the rehabilitation mechanism thoroughly until she had the ability to manufacture it herself.

This would be an extremely arduous research, as the mysteries of ancient civilization technology were beyond the comprehension of many scholars in their entire lives. Fortunately, Falusan still had plenty of time, and with the contract signed with the Adventurer's Association, she didn't have to worry about funding - as long as the subsequent development of support equipment for the ruins continued; perhaps in a sense, Falusan could already be considered a "rich woman", although Amber, the leader of the Chi Nian clan who owned an entire bazaar on the Mora reserve, was not bad either.

Since then, Amber and Falusan rarely met each other. They exchanged letters but that was all they did.

"She is so busy and her major is not suitable, so let's just forget it." Amber smiled helplessly. At that time, as a friend of Falushan of this era, she said "Welcome back" to Falushan. As a result, the two are now separated by half of Sumeru. She doesn't know if this is considered a disqualification as a friend.

"That's right." Aji nodded and confirmed Amber's idea.

"Okay, next we have to go check out the situation at the winery warehouse." Amber stood up, stretched a little, and walked out of the reception room.

This year's extra batch of date wine was sent out according to her plan. The person she chose gave it a very high evaluation after tasting it. They immediately arranged to buy as much date wine as the Chinanian clan had during the date harvest season next year.

With such a good business in front of her, Amber had no reason not to do it. There was still nearly a year before the next date palm harvest. During this time, she could take the opportunity to continue optimizing the winemaking process and find ways to expand the scale and output.

A bright future awaits her.

Chapter 9: Facing the Past

Hall of Transfiguration.

According to legend, this was the palace of the Lord of Sand during the time when the Red King appeared in the world. Only those with sufficient qualifications could kneel before the throne and be qualified to meet the Red King.

To this day, it has become a legend, as many adventurers, scholars and even the people of the sand have spent their entire lives searching for the truth, but still cannot find even the slightest trace of the Hall of the Holy Epiphany. Some speculate that it has become a ruin, buried under the sea of ​​sand, some speculate that it never existed in the first place, and some speculate that only qualified people can enter it, just like the Tomb of the Red King.

Thutmose made finding the golden dreamland his only pursuit. They conducted many investigations around the Red King's Tomb, but ultimately failed to find the legendary Aru, the place where all good things could be found.

How could they know that the Aru in the Red King's Tomb was just a failure and was destroyed in the disaster a hundred years ago. The Red King then built a second Aru, but this Aru was only his tomb. In order to avoid the more dangerous consequences of forbidden knowledge, he was willing to meet his end in it.

This second Aru is not somewhere else, but in the Holy Epiphany Hall, on the back of the throne. This throne condenses all the glory of the Red King during his lifetime, and also bears all his sins.

"No need to hide anymore, Sameer."

Before the throne whose splendor was beyond description, Gabriel raised his head and admired the glory left by the Red King. He spoke slowly, and Samel, carrying two swords on his back, also walked slowly up the stairs.

"Long time no see, Gabriel. For so many years, you have been hiding under my nose, hiding in this vast sea of ​​sand." Samel stared at Gabriel's neck with his sharp eyes. The momentum contained in his eyes made people think that he would draw his sword and chop him at the next moment, but Samel did not do so. There was a doubt in his heart that had existed for too long.

Sameer had been searching for Gabriel for a long time. He had searched all over the forest in the past few years, but still couldn't get even the slightest clue, until a few days ago when he suddenly had a "premonition" like a twin, which led him here.

"Sometimes the most dangerous place is actually the safest place. The messenger of God said this to me at that time. I followed her advice and deceived you and everyone else." Gabriel turned around slowly. His face was completely different from the one in Samel's memory - from the looks of it, it could be seen that it was the same person, but the rest of his aura, willpower, and the brilliance in his eyes were all very different from what he remembered.

"Gabriel, Gabriel, we have known each other since childhood. I thought I would be the one who understood you the best, and I also thought you understood me the best. When we were framed by that vicious woman and had to flee from the Tanit tribe, I thought you could understand my resentment, and I also thought you wanted revenge on that woman as much as I did." Sameer's voice was a little hoarse, like the smoke produced by incompletely burned wood, floating quietly.

"But now, I realize I was wrong. You're no longer yourself because of that scholar, that brat, and everything around you. Perhaps the Gabriel I knew is dead..."

"...died on the day he betrayed me!" When the word betrayal was mentioned, Samel's eyes showed deep resentment. He hated betrayal the most in his life, and the person who hurt him the most was the betrayal of Gabriel, whom he regarded as his closest relative. How much he trusted Gabriel before, how much he hated him now.

Sameer held the hilt of the sword behind his back with both hands, his eyes fixed on Gabriel, but Gabriel did not even pick up the weapon, but just clenched his fists and slowly walked down the stairs in front of the throne.

"I don't regret my betrayal. I only regret not discovering your intentions sooner." Şebele clenched his fists and adopted a fighting stance. "If killing you can bring Yufei back to life, then I will not hesitate, even if I have to kill you a hundred or a thousand times!"

"Hahahaha! Okay, okay!" Samel laughed in anger, a bit of madness spread in his eyes. He drew out the double swords on his back and took the initiative to attack Gabriel.

"Come on." Gabriel didn't dodge or evade. Samel's attack was blocked by the arm armor on his forearm, and he punched out with the momentum.

His hands were wrapped in the light of the grass element, and this light was injected into Samel's body, causing his movements to slow down visibly.

After being pushed back a few steps, Samel quickly readjusted his posture. He was at a disadvantage in the opening match, so he no longer hid himself, and the blades of his two swords were wrapped in the light of ice elements.

He rushed forward again, giving up all defense, and the two swords in his hands were like the sharp claws of a beast, slashing out quickly again and again.

Facing the frantic slashing, Gabriel did not dodge or evade. He stomped one foot on the ground, and a green "field" expanded from this point, covering the entire hall. Facing Samel's continuous cutting, Gabriel seemed to have the ability of "precognition". He was always able to block it one step faster and seize any gaps in Samel's offensive to use these gaps to launch attacks.

The sound of metal clashing filled the hall, interspersed with the occasional sound of fists hitting flesh.

For a moment, Samel seemed like a blind man challenging a mountain. No matter how hard he tried, he could not make Gabriel retreat even half a step. Even his most vicious method of using the ice elemental power of his two swords to erode the target's body and slow down its movements did not gain any benefit from Gabriel.

It was not ineffective. Gabriel's offensive had indeed slowed down significantly, but the grass elemental power wrapped around his hands would cause an equal degree of obstruction every time it hit Samel's body. After several rounds of fighting, Samel was completely unable to break through Gabriel's defense. Instead, he was hit many times and suffered many injuries.

Thutmose's two blades were equally strong - but Gabriel was no longer the same person he had been before, so this statement naturally became empty talk.

"How can this be - I absolutely cannot admit it!" A little blood flowed from the corner of Samer's mouth. He rushed towards Gabriel almost suicidally. Gabriel was ready to withstand the attack. For a moment, his attention was all on Samer. Samer took the opportunity to put the handles of the two swords together, and threw them out with all his strength. At the same time, he gathered all his strength and punched Gabriel in the face.

With the help of the domain, Gabriel had already predicted the trajectory of the two swords and fists, but if he responded to the attack of the two swords, he would have to take the attack of Samer. If he responded to Samer, he would have to take the attack of the two swords. This would be Samer's final kill.

Faced with this dilemma where he would be seriously injured no matter what, there was still no fluctuation in Gabriel's eyes, and he took a step forward.

The expanded field was quickly retracted as Gabriel took a step, wrapping around Gabriel to form a piece of armor. Gabriel took a step forward to receive the last punch thrown by Samel with the determination to die. The other hand placed on the waist brought a huge wind pressure to hit Samel's jaw. The double swords carrying the ice element hit Gabriel's back, making a sound of metal clashing. Along with this sound, there was the sound of bones breaking as the cervical vertebrae and mandible were directly shattered and broken with huge force.

Samel flew backwards and lost his life in an instant. His final killing blow barely penetrated the protective grass elemental armor on Gabriel's body, leaving a shallow wound. This wound was quickly healed by the grass elemental power in the next moment.

From beginning to end, Gabriel didn't even hold the axe that he placed next to him. He just relied on the boxing skills he had practiced in the past few years and the development of the ability of the Eye of God to kill Samel.

But the taste of successful revenge is not as sweet as imagined. Sameer's death cannot bring back Youfei's life. Gabriel looked at Sameer's body lying on the ground, with unknown colors flashing in his eyes.

Gabriel waved his hand to remove the armor on his body, grasped the axe, took a last look at the glorious throne behind him, and walked away.

Passing through a short corridor, a strong smell of blood rushed into Gabriel's nostrils. There were many corpses lying on the ground. Some of them died from knife wounds or injuries caused by blunt objects, some were nailed to the wall by arrows, and some were charred by lightning and fire. It can be seen that the human-like corpses all had red ribbons on their bodies, which also revealed the identities of these people - members of Thutmose's group.

"Done?" Amber, who was resting against a stone pillar, had the sword hanging on her waist. Apart from that, she did not have any other weapons on her body. Seeing Gabriel walking out from the deepest part, Amber wiped off the blood on her face and walked towards the exit of the Hall of the Epiphany first.

"Yeah." Gabriel nodded and followed Amber. The Eye of Ahmar pattern in Amber's hand emitted light. The mechanisms in the ruins followed her wishes and locked the doors after the two of them passed by.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the Epiphany Hall, the entire relic closed again and disappeared into thin air—even more secure than when they came. Now, not even Amber could open it by any means other than violence.

The Aru that exists in the Epiphany Hall here is just a tomb and a reflection. After Gabriel completes his and Yufei's goals, it should be completely closed, and no one will be able to disturb the Red King's sleep from then on.

"You weren't injured in the previous battle with Samel, were you?" Amber asked softly. Gabriel returned with the first group of Sand People who came to study. He rushed here today, the day after his return. Although Gabriel still looked very strong on the surface, Amber hadn't seen Gabriel's strength for a long time. Fortunately, he didn't seem to be in any serious trouble at the moment.

"No, Sameer has been trapped in the past for too long. Such a knife can't hurt me." Speaking of Sameer, Gabriel sighed deeply.

Just as Sameer said, he and Sameer grew up together, but Sameer had suffered betrayals one after another since he was a child, which made him have a strong desire to control everything in his hands. In a way, he may be like a child, but this child has weapons in his hands and is also capable of killing.
