Chapter 8: To Mondstadt
"Katarina, Kolya, Nikolai, Agasya, my request to the four of you is to pretend to be my bodyguard, from now on I am just a merchant from Solstice who went to Mondstadt in search of business opportunities, so that no one else can find out your identity, can you do it?"
Xia Wei looked at the four people standing in a neat row and asked.
Without the slightest hesitation, the four of them said in unison: "Everything is as the apprentice wishes, and we will definitely complete the apprentice's task to the death!" ”
Sandonne sat in the arms of the Relic Heavy Machine behind her, with a faint smile on his face, "The captain will give you three soldiers... Is it enough? Not enough for me to lend you my soldiers. ”
"The number of people is just right now, and too many people will attract unnecessary suspicion." Xia Wei touched his head and smiled.
For the past five days, he has been working with her in Sandogne's laboratory on machinery, and has come up with the idea of popularizing all kinds of machinery to the Seven Kingdoms and using it to build more machines.
After receiving Sandogne's approval, the two reached a collaboration, and Agatya was sent to Mondstadt with Xia Wei to be responsible for the connection for the follow-up cooperation.
After determining that there was no place where she was needed, Sandogne returned to her factory to continue studying the drawings that Xia Wei had drawn for her.
Xia Wei also took four subordinates to sit on the plane that he had made up with Sandogne in the past few days, and the shape of the plane was more like an old-fashioned glider, after all, time was limited, and it was good to be able to build such a plane.
The four of them looked at the plane with curiosity, and as the engine started, the energy device began to operate, the propeller at the front of the plane began to turn, and the whole aircraft began to move forward.
Finally, after a burst of take-off runs, the plane successfully lifted off.
The altitude of the plane gradually increased, and the four of them collectively let out an exclamation.
"It's worthy of an apprentice, and he actually created such an amazing thing!" Agatya praised
Nikolai and Kolya nodded in agreement.
But that's when Katarina spoke, pointing to the tire on the ground that had fallen for some unknown time, and said, "Is the plane not... Dropped parts? ”
Xia Wei stuck his head out of the window and saw that the wheels of the plane had indeed fallen to the ground, but he didn't care.
"Don't worry, you can fly without wheels." Xia Wei said in a relaxed tone.
Katarina breathed a sigh of relief, but at that moment a pigeon hit the propeller on the right side of the plane, and the propeller soon stopped turning.
In order to avoid losing balance, Xia Wei closed the propeller on the left side.
At this moment, he could feel the tension of the four people behind him, and he continued to reassure: "Don't worry, a propeller will fly too." ”
The four of them nodded again and again, since Xia Wei said so, it should be fine, they have to believe Xia Wei unconditionally, because he is an executive officer, and an executive officer will not make such a low-level mistake.
At this moment, Xia Wei seemed to remember something, and he grabbed a large handful of screws from the outer pocket of his clothes.
Only then did he remember that there seemed to be a lot of screws on the plane that had not been installed.
Sure enough, there was a problem with the plane soon, and the propeller at the front end fell off the plane directly, and the main body of the aircraft and the propeller flew separately.
At this time, Katarina finally couldn't hold back, even if she was stupid, she understood that the propeller couldn't fly without the plane.
"Apprentice! Now what? Without the propellers, we would have fallen to our deaths. Katarina said nervously.
Seeing that Xia Wei was still calm, Agatya smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, you can fly without a propeller." ”
Xia Wei looked at Agasya and then gave a thumbs up, "It's worthy of being a puppet's subordinate, it's knowledgeable!" You're right, you can fly without a propeller. ”
Saying that, Xia Wei pressed a button on the plane, and suddenly there was a roar from the inside of the plane, the interface of the energy device switched to another position, and another set of driving devices started.
This time, the Relic Hunter's flight characteristics were adopted, and the four levitators that allow it to fly were mounted to the bottom of the aircraft, and the altitude of the flight was controlled by the energy output power.
Seeing the plane flying steadily, Katarina finally put her mind at ease, and she looked at Xia Wei apologetically, "I'm sorry, apprentice." ”
Xia Wei smiled at her, "It's inevitable to be nervous on a plane for the first time, oh, by the way, remember what Mondstadt was calling me?" ”
"Mr. Xia Wei." Katarina replied quickly.
"That's right, don't make a mistake." After Xia Wei finished confirming, he turned his body back.
Now a few hundred meters above the ground, he could see a vast expanse of snow.
"If you fly higher, maybe you can see the dandelion sea, I heard that it is very beautiful, I really want to take my two brothers to see it." Agasha said wistfully.
"I'll take you around if I have the chance, and I'm also interested in these natural landscapes." Xia Wei smiled.
......
Located north of Mondstadt and bordered by Munata and Fontaine, the Solstice arrived in Mondstadt in less than a day, and at Lady's pace, it would have been several days to get there.
I want to laugh when I think of the lady Xia Wei, when he went to look for the lady this morning, the lady had already left him with her own team, and now she was still slower than him.
Xia Wei landed the plane in the Whispering Forest, and then buried it on the spot, and interestingly, on the way to dig the pit, he dug up a wooden sign with four-leaf clovers painted on it and a box.
When I opened the box, I saw a stuffed animal hiding in a red bag.
After slapping it twice with his hand, the plush toy was quite elastic, and just as he was about to take this cute little toy away, a cute child's voice sounded behind him.
"Big brother, don't slap Klee's bouncing with your hands!" Klee said nervously.
Xia Wei followed the voice and found that it was a cute little girl wearing red clothes and carrying a small backpack.
"What do you say? Don't want anything? Xia Wei didn't hear clearly, and he didn't know what bouncing was, he subconsciously pinched the soft doll in his hand.
And then... A huge explosion sounded, and a large flock of birds in the forest flew into the sky in shock.
Klee looked at Xia Wei lying on the ground with her hair curled up by the fire element, and the weak duck sat on the ground.
"Whew, Klee is finished..."
Amber, who heard the movement, ran over and saw such a picture.
The ground was scorched black, and five people were lying on the ground, the worst was the one in the middle, the originally flowing bangs were as if they had been burned, and the clothes on the upper body were blown to tatters.
"Klee... You—" Amber looked at Klee in surprise.
Klee was a little overwhelmed, "I'm sorry Sister Amber, Klee didn't mean to, just buried the big brother who dug up the Jumping again." ”
Amber helplessly raised his forehead, "This is not the first time, the last time the traveler from the other world was still lying in the intensive care unit of the Zephyr Church." ”
