At night, Mondstadt is lit up with lights, and while it is not as grand as Liyue seems, it is still extremely lively.

Walking in front of the lights, excitement and joy are the easiest emotions to convey.

When they came back from supper, they happened to meet Kaeya who had gone out, and he had finally finished his work for the day, and was about to go to the Angel's Gift for a drink.

Slowly stopping, Jean said softly, "Kaeya, you've worked hard for the past two days. ”

"It's okay, you really should rest."

Holding her hands in her arms, Kaeya glanced at Qin and Qing who were holding hands, sighed softly, turned around and walked in the direction of the tavern and said, "Leave it to me these days, I'm going to drink." ”

Looking at the back of Kaeya leaving, Jean couldn't help but smile lightly, turned his head to look at everyone: "It's not early, everyone lives in the Knights today, and the Knights haven't been so lively for some time." ”

"It's time to go to bed, you had a great time today."

Paimon couldn't help but yawn and dragged Ying upstairs to rest.

Qing and the others also followed upstairs, and finally said "good night" to each other at the door of the room, and then went back to their rooms one after another.

Closing the door, Qing walked slowly to the wall, took the box he had taken from Liben, and sat down on the sofa.

Before he could make a move, a faint thunder light suddenly crossed behind the sofa, followed by a shadow that appeared behind him, looked at Qing's movements, and said, "This thing is very interesting, like Kanriya's means." ”

"It's supposed to be Kanria."

Qing picked up a round stone fragment and continued, "I'm going to use my divine sense to explore these things. ”

The shadow next to him heard this, and said with a slight bow: "I'll help you guard it, don't worry." ”

"Hmm."

Qing smiled lightly and probed into the stone fragment with his divine sense.

This time, there was a sea of clouds, with endless clouds and mist under your feet, a long clear sky overhead, and you could even feel the breeze blowing in your face.

"Who are you?"

The familiar opening slowly turned around, but he couldn't help but be stunned, this person was composed of endless clouds and mist, dozens of meters high.

"Whew-"

The surrounding clouds and mist began to fly towards the sky, enveloping Qing like a high wall, so that Qing could only see the huge head above the high wall.

"You have a pearl on you?"

The Cloud Man, who was about to attack, suddenly stopped his movements, and then waved his hand, and the whole person dissipated along with the high wall, so that the surroundings returned to their original calm again.

"Whew-"

A cloud of mist suddenly condensed in front of Qing's eyes, turning into a human form about the same height as Qing, looking at Qing left and right, and said, "You are not from Kanria, how can Chang Mingzhu recognize you?" ”

"Long Pearl?"

Qing raised his hand and touched his chest, took out the Night Pearl from it, and then said, "It looks like you won't do anything to me." ”

"That's our premise, naturally."

The cloud-man sighed softly and continued, "I am an android of the second stage of the Satiety Project, the trialist of the Everbright Lamp, number 1. ”

"What's that?"

Listening to No. 1's words, Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then sorted out his thoughts and asked, "Kanria's alchemy level has reached this level?" ”

"It's not enough, we can only be placed inside the lantern as a soul, and we can only continue to exist with the help of the energy of the Everbright Pearl."

Number 1 stared at Qing in front of him tightly, and continued to speak: "You can actually activate the energy that has been depleted by the long pearl, it seems that Kanria has ......."

"Kanria fell five hundred years ago."

Qing put away Chang Mingzhu with his backhand, looked at No. 1, who fell into silence after hearing the words, and continued to speak: "What is your plan for? And what is this everlasting lamp used for? ”

Number 1 looked a little depressed and continued, "I have no right to know about the Satiety Project, but the purpose of the Everbright Lantern is to test the warriors of Kanria. ”

"Trials? It's a bit useful. ”

Nodding slightly, Qing immediately asked, "The fragments of the Everbright Lantern and the Everbright Pearl are in my hands, can I restore the Everbright Lantern to normal?" ”

"As long as the Changming Pearl still has energy, you only need to transmit energy to the Changming Pearl outside."

Number 1 glanced at it again, and continued: "According to the design, we have no right to refuse or hide anything from you, but I am suspicious of you. ”

"That's a pity, you and your companions can only keep this doubt for the time being to help me do things."

Hearing this, Qing smiled lightly, waved his hand towards number 1, and disappeared in place.

Keeping a close eye on the position where Qing had left, No. 1 slowly dissipated and merged into the sea of clouds, but a sigh came from the depths of the sea of clouds.

……

Qing in the room.

Qing slowly opened his eyes, raised his head to look at the shadow he was looking at, and said with a chuckle, "This is an interesting thing for you to see the alchemy of Kanria. ”

"Kanria's alchemy is truly astonishing."

Ying took a half step back, watched Qing take those fragments and the long pearl in his hand, and raised his hand to cover the surroundings with divine power to prevent too much movement from causing unnecessary trouble.

Holding the long pearl in his hand, Qing began to gradually inject his divine power into the long pearl, only to see that the light of the long pearl began to become brighter and brighter, but fortunately, there was a shadow of protection, and the light was not revealed.

The light of this long pearl became brighter and brighter, shining on the fragments in Qing's other hand, and I saw that those fragments slowly levitated, combining around the long pearl with a certain pattern.

In just the blink of an eye, these fragments turned into a palm-sized lamp, and the long pearl that still glowed on his head slowly fell into Qing's hand.

At the same time, under the illumination of the Everbright Pearl, nine villains slowly appeared, standing on the tray of the Everbright Lantern.

There are two figures that are very familiar, and they are the people in the starry sky that No. 1 and Kiyoshi saw for the first time.

"It's you!"

The man looked around a little blankly, and finally set his eyes on Qing's body, and said in surprise: "You are actually the holder of the Everlasting Lantern?" An outlander? ”

The rest of the seven figures also looked at Qing, obviously with puzzlement in their eyes.

Feeling Kiyoshi's gaze, Number 1 spoke, "Make a circle from my left side, numbers 2 to 9, and we'll be in charge of the lantern together." ”

These nine people have different forms, some are people who turn into clouds, and some half-orcs who look a little naïve, and they can see clearly that they have the illusion of having pets.
