As for the beast hounds that were gnawing on the branches of the thunder cherry, it had nothing to do with Sora. It was because the unusual movements of the demon god in the Dark Sea had caused the ground veins of Inazuma to become disordered, causing the monsters from the Dark Disaster Period to revive.
But now that he and Ying are here, the shogunate army's armaments have been upgraded and they have the support of the monsters, so dealing with these monsters is easy.
"It's just the [Magic Knife] that controls the body..." Fang Yun pondered for a moment. He probably guessed that this was Cage Fishing Bottle Yi Xin.
Although the strength of this weapon in the game does not live up to its cool appearance, in the real world, this weapon with spiritual power still poses a great threat to ordinary people.
"Tenryo Bugyo should be able to handle this matter, but I haven't been back to Inazuma for a while, so I'll go outside and see how Tenryo Bugyo will deal with it." Fang Yun thought about it and made a decision. He heard from Kitsusaigumi that Inazuma had changed a lot, but he hadn't gone out to see it yet.
Before convening the assessment meeting, Fang Yun still needs to conduct research on all aspects of Inazuma's current situation. After all, policy making cannot be divorced from the masses.
"But we still need to interrogate Si Ke Ke as soon as possible. Buyer has already come up with a research idea on using the horn of the Star Devouring Whale." Fang Yun thought. This is what the Great Compassion Tree King told him this morning.
Although the Great Mercy Tree King is the template of Potato Thunder, her ability to research magic is unique given the terrifying amount of knowledge she possesses.
Originally, she and Ying had figured out the teleportation anchor point, but this thing required establishing nodes on both sides of the teleportation, and it had to wait for Ying, the science and engineering girl, to make it before it could be run. But after obtaining the whale horn, the Great Compassion Tree King had the idea of one-way teleportation. She only needed to input the coordinates to directly tear through space and teleport.
It’s not that the teleportation anchor point is useless. It is a device that can be used for a long time and can benefit all the people. The one-way transmission only greatly improves the mobility of high-end combat forces such as Fang Yun.
The Great Compassionate Tree King plans to set the location for the preliminary experiment at Xumi. After all, it is time to let "Uncle Fang" take care of his daughter.
Busy!
While expressing his feelings, Fang Yun asked Yingmei to report on the work on Haiqi Island that she was in charge of.
"I heard from Xinhai that you are mainly responsible for the on-site construction. How are the hot springs and supporting tourism facilities going?"
"It was roughly completed when I left. On the one hand, the residents of Umijima were very cooperative, and on the other hand, Inazuma already had experience in artificial hot springs. Uh... I heard that the previous generations of the Hiiragi family imported the blast furnace technology of the winter and promoted it so that Inazuma also had hot spring culture."
Fang Yun nodded slightly. This was indeed the origin of Inazuma Hot Springs. The Hiiragi family was still doing business at that time, but unfortunately by the generation of Hiiragi Shinsuke, they had become traitors to the country.
So, is there anything eternal and unchanging in this world?
Yingmei continued to report her work situation modestly.
Her words without any credit-seeking made little Paimeng so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and the halo on his head almost disappeared from his body.
There is no way. If her husband doesn't take it, how can she take it? If her husband doesn't make progress, how can she make progress?
She wants to follow Yingmei and climb to the top step by step!
So Paimon quickly added: "Fang Yun, Ying and I worked very hard on Haiji Island. Even the head of the Kamisato family, who is the magistrate of the society, praised us!"
"Huh? The head of the Kamisato family hasn't returned to Narukami Island yet?" Fang Yun was dumbfounded. He had never given the order to send Kamisato Ayato to Kaigi Island to grow potatoes.
Wouldn't others misunderstand that he has a bad attitude towards his brother-in-law?
Really, he is obviously very friendly to his brother-in-law. If you don’t believe me, just ask Kong.
"No, the head of Kamisato family returned to Kamisato Mansion a long time ago."
"Then why did he go to Haigi Island again?"
Fang Yun suddenly thought of Linghua. Could it be that there was no place for Linghua in the family?
But this was not the case. Paimon and Yingmei hurriedly explained, and Fang Yun then learned that something had happened in Yuanxia Palace before. Not only Kamisato Ayato, but also Kujo Sara and even the two fox fairy palace officials had gone to the scene.
Coral Palace Xinhai added softly.
"This is a complicated matter. Every generation of priestess in the Coral Palace has been warned that there are many extremely dangerous secrets buried in the Abyss Palace. They are usually sealed and will only be opened when the situation of the sacred soil of Haiji Island intensifies and it is necessary to enter the Abyss Palace to obtain the [Blood Branch Coral] before presiding over the ceremony."
"But for some reason, even though I brought the [Key to the Moon Bathing Abyss] with me before I came to Naruto Island, someone still managed to sneak in... When Sister Shen Zi and the others went there, they were unable to stop the person from escaping. All we know is that he was an Apostle of the Fire Abyss."
Fang Yun raised his eyebrows. This was probably the guy who called himself Yuan Shang?
"No wonder even the Son of God said that a lot of things happened to Inazuma. It seems to be true..." Fang Yun rubbed his brows, "I'll remember this. So, since the construction on Kaigi Island is completed, I'll go there to inspect it after I finish dealing with the shogunate's affairs. On the way, I'll also inspect the Kujo Jinya and Tadasaga. Ying, you can come with me then."
"Ah I?"
"Why? Don't you still have Inazuma's mission to do? Besides, Jean and Barbara might be on their way, so we must be prepared to avoid any mistakes during the reception."
This logic is correct, but Yingmei still hesitated to speak... Fang Yun took her to inspect the hot spring. Could it be that he wanted the two of them to experience the hot spring on the spot?
If that's the case, as the person in charge, she really has no reason to refuse, but wouldn't she be in danger?
"I wonder if it will work if I throw Paimeng to Fang Yun?" Yingmei thought disdainfully.
But there was no way she could do that, Paimon was her best friend.
Fang Yun suddenly became curious when he mentioned Captain Qin: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how did you convince Qin to come here? I remember Qin was very busy?"
You know, the sick leave that Qin took during the legend mission was her first vacation since she became the acting leader.
"Well, most of the work that Qin does is the task of ordinary members of the Knights. It's not that she has to do it, but she has a strong sense of responsibility and wants to take on all the work." Ying's tone was also a little helpless. "The last time she fell ill, we realized the seriousness of the problem, so this time I wrote a letter to ask Barbara and Lisa to help together."
After finishing speaking, Ying added: "In addition, I also wrote a sentence: Captain Qin, this is an invitation from His Highness Fang Yun. You don't want the thousand-year-old good diplomatic relationship between Mondstadt and Inazuma to be ruined in your hands, right?"
?
Fang Yun was slightly surprised. He had not yet injected Inazuma's patriotic gene into Yingmei.
Paimon rolled his eyes and flattered: "What's the saying in Liyue...uh, marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. Ying joined Inazuma and became more like you, Fang Yun. This is normal."
"..." Fang Yun entered the Blademaster mode.
With a soft sigh, he pinched Paimon's little face and said, "Paimon, you don't have to speak if you can't."
Not to mention, Paimon's little face is still quite tender. Fang Yun rubbed his palms with considerable reminiscence. He seemed to have underestimated Paimon's potential as a flying...flying object.
Yingmei also pinched Paimeng. What was this guy talking about? She hasn’t married Fang Yun yet!
"Forget it. Inviting her here is a good thing anyway. I do have something important to discuss with Qin." Fang Yun waved his hand. "And to be honest, it's a good thing for Qin to leave for a while. If she doesn't change her bad habits, Mond will be ruined."
Yingmei nodded slightly. This was indeed true. The people of Mondstadt were acting very outrageous now... Jean fainted from exhaustion and was unable to help them find cats and dogs, yet they were still complaining. This was unimaginable in other countries.
As for the ordinary members of the Knights Templar, they can even patrol the city gate empty-handed and enjoy the shade under the trees. There is no need for others to discredit this level of laziness.
"Fang Yun, if possible, could you give Captain Qin some words of advice? Not to mention what will happen to Mond if she continues like this, her body won't be able to take it." Ying pleaded, because even Barbara couldn't persuade Qin, and only God could change Qin's stubbornness.
It's not like she hadn't thought about asking Wendy for help, but Wendy would never interfere with the decisions of her people, unless Mond was facing the threat of destruction or reached the same level as Lawrence a thousand years ago.
"I can persuade her, but Qin and I haven't met yet, so I can't guarantee whether it will work." Fang Yun shook his head, "We'll talk about it when the time comes. Or I can call Ying and the Great Compassion Tree King over to host a Three Kings Banquet to entertain her."
and many more.
A blonde female knight who abides by the code of chivalry, the Banquet of Three Kings...this seems very déjà vu.
Fang Yun shook his head to dispel his distracting thoughts. Seeing that he had almost finished talking about the matter, he stood up and prepared to leave the castle tower.
Yingmei wanted to leave, but she quickly remembered her desire when she saw the Chibaku Tensei, and hurriedly pulled Fang Yun's sleeve: "Wait, Fang Yun, you see I have done a lot of work, it's not too much to ask for a reward, right?"
"How do you want me to reward you?" Fang Yun was surprised.
The golden eyes sparkled: "I want to learn skills from you!"
Fang Yun checked his skills after hearing this and asked, "What do you want to learn? You are actually quite good in sword skills, but if you want to learn my Swallow Return which involves the laws of time and space, it will be more difficult... I can teach you [Source Flow] first."
"Is it possible to seal the demon like this?"
"No."
Yingmei shook her head repeatedly: "No, no!"
"What about the control of the lightning element? I can teach you the lightning armor, which can greatly enhance your strength and speed. I see that you don't like to use elemental combat skills. You usually use ordinary attacks in battle. This lightning armor should be very suitable for you."
Before coming back, Fang Yun had thought about upgrading Yingmei so that she wouldn't have to helplessly stand up and watch when her teammates were in crisis. This Thunder Armor perfectly met the requirements, it was simple and practical.
Yingmei still asked: "Can the demon be sealed in this way?"
"No."
"Don't learn, don't learn!"
Fang Yun originally wanted to ask her what she wanted to learn, but when he saw Yingmei looking out the window, staring in the direction of the Disha Star, he suddenly realized something.
Sister Ying, you don’t want to learn this, you don’t want to learn that, so you are trying to do this?
Fang Yun tapped Yingmei on the head gently and said, "Go out with me for a walk today, and we'll talk when we come back."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Coral Palace's heart sea again and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
"No." Coral Palace Xinhai pursed his lips slightly, and said subconsciously as if savoring the taste: "It feels pretty good... It has a warmer taste of grass and trees than before."
After saying this, Xinhai seemed to realize something and left first with a blush.
Is she tasting milk tea here?
Fang Yun glanced at Yingmei and Paimeng, then took them out of the office.
But when he reached the entrance of the main hall of the castle tower, he was worried that this trip might take a lot of time, so he thought about asking the two to wait for him there for a while, and then he came to the world of mind images.
What comes into view is naturally the pink and golden giant trees and the gorgeous and ethereal sea of nectar flowers.
However, compared to the last time I entered, the scope of this sea of flowers has expanded a little. At the same time, the originally barren area in the distance has begun to become rich, with barren deserts, vibrant rainforests, and steep rock walls.
This is the result of the transformation of the Great Compassionate Tree King based on Teyvat as a template. After all, the world origin absorbed last time was too rich, which has allowed the mental world to take the step of evolution.
Fang Yun swept his eyes across these new landscapes, and then came to the giant pink and gold tree.
Here, the girl with white hair and red eyes is still tightly bound by emerald green chains.
Her round legs wrapped in gradient purple stockings stood straight, her hips tilted back, and she was breathing softly with some weakness.
"just kill me."
Volume 3: Chapter 3 Going to see Nashida?
As he spoke, due to the use of some strength, some purple-black mist with a strong corrosive effect began to emanate from Sicock's body.
But facing the special edition of Lanaro chain, the mist had no effect at all. Instead, it stimulated the power in the chain, and the emerald green light was so strong that the mist dissipated quickly like melting snow in an instant.
Si Ke Ke himself was also implicated, and couldn't help but let out a pleasant groan, followed by a sound like swallowing saliva.
"Goo."
With this sentence, Fang Yun felt that Si Ke Ke’s “Kill me” just now was perfect, otherwise it always felt like it was missing some charm.
But looking at the white-haired girl who was tied up powerlessly, her straight and round legs trembling slightly, her low breathing from time to time, and her chest rising and falling, Fang Yun subconsciously wanted to laugh a few times.
But he still restrained himself because the Great Compassionate Tree King appeared and walked towards him after seeing him.
In front of the intelligent and gentle Mother Tree, Fang Yun still has to be careful about the impact.
Mother Tree, I love your teeth!
He walked up to Silk with a blank expression: "There is nothing you can do now."
"I don't have much to say about the winners and losers, but I don't want to lose so miserably." Si Ke Ke snorted, "If it were you, you wouldn't want to be captured by others and die by constantly losing your strength, right?"
"That makes sense, but why should I care about your opinion? You wanted to run away with the Star-Eating Whale, but you didn't consider other people, right?"
"...I've already apologized, haven't I? I'll punish myself by swinging my sword three million times."
Seeing that she was still like this, Fang Yun was not surprised. Si Ke Ke looked like a 17-year-old girl, but was actually an old lady... ahem, people of this age who were difficult to estimate, had values that had been baptized by the long years and would not change easily, unless Fang Yun could find himself another mouth.
But it doesn’t matter. There are actually many ways to convince others.
"But you also said that the weak have no say, and it is only natural for the weak to be dominated by the strong." Fang Yun said in a flat tone, "Why, now that it's your turn to be dominated, you think it's unfair?"
Silkcock wanted to retort, but the words were on the tip of his tongue.
She felt uncomfortable because she had never been dominated like this before and had always looked down on others. But now that she had personally experienced that "the weak should be humiliated by the strong", she knew how those weak people felt when facing her.
"I have nothing to say." Sicock's voice turned cold. She gave up the idea of asking Fang Yun to free her. She vaguely realized the problem with the theory that the strong are supreme.
They can speak nonsense to those weaker than themselves, arrogantly believing that "swinging the sword three million times as punishment" is a sincere punishment, but if it is their turn to be trampled by a stronger person, they cannot refute it, otherwise they would be denying themselves.
So, although she was very unhappy with what Fang Yun said, she couldn't find any reason to refute and could only helplessly throw her hands up in her heart.
No, it’s all the fault of the master Ji’eqi. He didn’t let go even when he was pushed to a high ground, and he didn’t let go even when he died. There’s something wrong with this person’s thinking!
Is it so difficult to train a Tianli in a season?
Seeing that Si Ke Ke was speechless, Fang Yun smiled indifferently.
Humph, you want to dominate me? Do you think you can do anything to me? Even Qianlu next door can't do anything to me!
Before he traveled through time, in addition to being a traveler, a doctor, the commander of the Gray Crow Squad, and a ninja student, he was also an old ship henchman.
"So, there's no point in you resisting any longer." Fang Yun rubbed his wrist, his voice gradually becoming deeper. "There's an old saying in Liyue, 'He who knows the current situation is a hero. If you honestly tell me what you know now, it will be good for both you and me."
He was not exaggerating. At this stage, they were unable to read the mind of the top demon level Sikirk, but as Sikirk was continuously weakened by the Lanaro Chains, or as Fang Yun and others became stronger again, Sikirk would not be able to escape after all.
After he finished speaking, the Great Tree King glanced at him strangely... She felt that Fang Yun was very talented in interrogation, and might be able to pry open Si Ke Ke's mouth.
however--
Si Ke Ke suddenly sneered: "If I confess, will you let me go?"
