"I am one of your infinite futures."

After a pause, he continued, "The authority of time is one of the components of immortality, and you are too reckless. ”

"What?" Wang Daoyi (now) made a puzzled sound.

"It's possible to think in tune, but you need to build more anchors at your point in time, otherwise you're susceptible to assimilation by your future self, as you just did.

Our future is too vast to be described, neither immortality nor pure beauty can describe our future.

So, the next time you use Mindset, either build more anchors or just ask for it from the past. ”

After speaking, regardless of Wang Daoyi's doubts (now), the great figure shook slightly, and disappeared on the long river of time.

[Immortal] is not enough to describe my future?

But what about [pure beauty]?

Can [Pure Beauty] be compared to [Immortality]?

For a while, Wang Daoyi's brain felt a little burned.

It wasn't until the time authority in his hand shook slightly that Wang Daoyi came to his senses,

"Although one of the future I am still a riddler, he is right in saying that it is indeed too dangerous to connect more future minds at this time,

Even if He didn't do anything, I had a feeling of being eager to be assimilated.

It's like... The lower beings have an admiration for the higher forms. ”

After a pause,

Wang Daoyi scolded with a slightly gloomy expression: "Damn, what will I evolve into in the future?" ”

After scolding,

Wang Daoyi repacked his mentality and withdrew his gaze to the future,

I looked at the light spots in the past timeline.

"I can't touch the future, what about the past?"

Just now, the future Wang Daoyi also said that you can think about going over and ask for it.

As soon as he gritted his teeth, Wang Dao moved with one thought, and his thinking will spread to the point of light that represented the past.

Touching the first point of light,

Thinking in the same tone,

A hazy figure immediately appeared in the thinking space, which was the figure of Wang Daoyi representing that point in time.

However, Wang Daoyi (now) was stunned for a moment, and his mind continued to contact the other party.

"This? No will? ”

Wang Daoyi (now) can feel a lot of thinking power carried by the other party's figure, or computing power,

But the other party's godless eyes also told Wang Daoyi (now) that this is a thinking body, and he doesn't even have his own will.

"Is there something wrong with the same mind?"

With such doubts, Wang Daoyi continued to swim upstream along the long river of time, touching other lit points of light.

But it's a pity that dozens of points of light come into contact, and each point of light represents the same body of thought.

It carries a lot of thinking power (computing power), but it has no self-will, and even when Wang Daoyi (now) contacts them, the connection with the original timeline is immediately broken.

Suddenly, Wang Daoyi's expression (now) froze, revealing a trace of absurdity.

"Damn, am I that timid?"

He's got it,

It's not that there is a problem with the same tone of thinking at all, but it is very successful.

Some of the past royal daoyi held the authority of time, and very smoothly came into contact with the signal sent by the royal daoyi (now),

They are also very quick to understand the pros and cons of thinking in tune.

Countless self-unions, naturally can solve many problems with great tacit understanding,

But once one of them has malicious intent, then everything will go bad.

After coming into contact with the request for the same tone of thinking issued by the king (now),

On the one hand, I am worried that my future self is in danger.

On the one hand, I am worried that my future self has set a trap.

So, they sent a thinking body out directly.

Cut off the will of the ego and promise not to be invaded by the future self into their self at the point in time.

The reason why Wang Daoyi is scolding (now) is that this is really something he will do.

He was really that timid and cautious.

A boomerang from the past crossed the long river of time and hit Wang Daoyi (now) and directly broke the defense.

"Forget it, with my level of care, it is indeed impossible to transfer the will of the self to the same thing, but it is okay, without the will of the self, these thinking bodies can think according to my ideas."

Wang Daoyi (present) connects dozens of Wang Daoyi (past) thinking bodies,

Feeling the surging thinking power (computing power) in the thinking space, I can't help but smile on my face.

Although it has not been able to borrow the power of the future, the computing power from the past has also greatly enhanced the royal road.

"A total of fifty-two of them responded to the same tone, which means that it is now equivalent to fifty-two times richer computing power.

No, no, some Wang Daoyi (in the past) didn't have so much computing power, but in total, it was at least forty or fifty times richer in computing power.

In this way, the analysis of the power of fate can be advanced by leaps and bounds. ”

Thinking of this,

A smile appeared at the corner of Wang Dao's mouth,

If Tianli thinks of himself as his former self,

Then, when the decisive battle comes, he may be able to surprise him again.

After laughing for a while, Wang Daoyi showed a trace of regret: "It's a pity that this method can only be used in Teyvat, and if you want to use it in the universe, it is estimated that it will not be possible." ”

In the universe, he doesn't even have the ability to invoke a timeline.

Though he has received the power of time, he is one of the components of immortality,

But he is not the immortal dragon itself after all,

Moreover, even the Immortal Dragon itself may not be able to dial the timeline in the universe.

It was the particularity of Teyvat that Wang Daoyi found such a bug.

"However, I can also learn from the Black Tower, where the main body is in Teyvat, and make a doppelganger to walk in the universe."

Thinking of this, Wang Daoyi's regret faded and he smiled again.

"While the thinking body is still there, let's calculate a wave first."

Wang Dao moved with one thought, and the power that belonged to the destiny emerged in him.

Colorful brilliance shrouded him, which represented the complex concept of their own destiny,

In fact, the power of Wang Daoyi's destiny, in addition to the wisdom is directly given by the erudition,

The other powers are all analyzed and imitated from the side of the Heavenly Principle and the maintainer,

Therefore, most of the power of his fate is only formal, not intentional.

It's the only one [Destruction] that still has something of its own.

Now that the computing power is very rich, Wang Daoyi also wants to sort out these messy fate forces.

On the long river of time,

Wang Daoyi's figure stands proudly here,

Many advanced concepts shrouded him,

Fifty times the computing power of thoughts is constantly surging, gradually straightening out the fate power around him,

Time passes little by little,

The colorful bands of light around Wang Daoyi gradually became harmonious.

The layers of colors are distinct, and the same concept of destiny converges into a band of light, and they surround the royal road, constantly doing circular movements.

If it was just a clutter of light and shadow in the bar,

Now the royal road is surrounded by a touching rainbow on the horizon.

[Destruction] [Protection] [Joy] [Harmony] [Nothingness] [Memory] [Hunting] [Wisdom] [Abundance]...

Different fates seem to be close to each other, but in fact they are not touched,

These powers were straightened out by the king, like messy hair with fluttering softness,

Highlight a smooth.

And Wang Daoyi's thinking still hasn't stopped analyzing,

After sorting out these concepts of fate, he still needs to parse them, understand them, and finally use them better.

……

And when the royal road is sorting out the power of fate.

Liyue: Return to the Original.

Ying and Zhongli also led a group of people to the ruins where the previous archaeological team was located.

Watching Ying come over with a team of people,

Sister Wan was a little confused in her eyes, but she still greeted her.

"Traveler, you're here, who are these?"

Ying immediately began to introduce: "These are my friends, and they are also people who know the ruins very well, this Mr. Zhongli, you may have heard of the reputation. ”

Sister Wan looked up at Zhongli with some surprise: "It turns out that you are Mr. Zhongli, I have heard about your research on Liyue's historical antiquities, and it would be great to have your help." ”

As a slider on Liyue's first street,

Zhongli often haunts the flower and bird markets, antique shops, and his reputation is also first-class in the archaeological world.

Many people want to invite Zhongli to archaeology together, but they can't find a way.

There are only a few forces that can use a large number of Mora offensives to open the door of the Hu Tang Master.

Let Zhongli Keqing participate in the event in the name of the former life hall.

"Heh, Liyue is a vast land with a rich history and a great deal of history, and it's a privilege for me to be a part of this archaeological activity." Zhongli said to Sister Wan.

Paimon pouted, "You can really say that." ”

Ying also smiled secretly.

"Haha, Mr. Zhongli is really nice to say." Sister Wan also smiled, and then looked at everyone, "A few people came just in time, we have cleaned up most of the organs, and now the door is not opened." ”

Then he stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, please come with me, and then I will have to rely on your help." ”

"Heh, you're so polite." Zhongli naturally took Ying's place and became the leader of this line.

Follow Sister Wan into the ruins,

The interior space of the ruins is very large, and the rough architectural style of thousands of years ago can be faintly seen.

Strangely, it is obviously from the inland location, but there are many traces of flooding here.

Judging from these traces, it is still the sea water that is drowned.

Zhongli skimmed over these traces as he walked,

"The Returning Collection was once the largest and most prosperous human gathering place in Liyue, and this is probably the remnant of the original era.

These traces of seawater erosion correspond to the reasons for the relocation of the Guiliji.

There was a demon god who set off a huge wave to drown Guiliji, and the emperor took the ancient people to move to the other side of Tianheng Mountain. ”

Zhongli's fingertips caressed over the water-eroded rock wall, and a hint of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

Here are a lot of his memories,

Morax under the rocky armor fights and lives here, and along with his friends, countless ancient people thrive here.

Beneath the erosion of the sea's rock faces, the last vestiges of a once glorious civilization are hidden.

"Is Mr. Zhongli also a supporter of the sea disaster theory? Haha, me too, we have archaeological ruins here, all of which have traces of submergence by the sea, so there must have been a super flood that made the Guiliji abandoned. ”

Zhongli's words made Sister Wan very excited,

As an archaeologist, she is very interested in the hidden ancient history of Liyue.

There are many theories in the archaeological community of Liyue about the abandonment of the Returnees.

Among them, the theory of sea disaster is the most prevalent.

Sister Wan is also its supporter.

Retracting his hand that had touched the rock wall, Zhongli smiled slightly: "The abandonment of Guiliji does have a reason for the change of the sea, but it is not entirely so, more... Presumably in strategic considerations. ”

Zhongli still had nostalgia in his eyes.

When he led the ancient people of Liyue to relocate, it wasn't just because there were great demons in the sea.

You must know that both Guiliji and Liyue Harbor are close to the sea, and if it is only a matter of relocation in the sea, it is unreasonable.

So, aggression in the sea is only part of the cause,

Another important reason is that the location of the discrete set is too central.

In times of peace, it is natural that a rich civilization can develop from the vast plains.

But during the Demon God War, the geographical location of Guiliji doomed it to be attacked on all sides.

That's why after a flood, Morax ordered the relocation.

Otherwise, the danger in the sea is also worthy of Morax to back down?

Of course, there is another reason, at that time, one of the two gods of the Returning Set, the demon god of dust, Hargentus, had already fallen.

The strength of the Liyue Divine System has been greatly reduced.

The emperor and the dragon king will go to war abroad,

The god of the stove is divided into thousands of people, and the power is dissatisfied,

The Returnee has no power to resist the invasion of many demon gods.

That's why they gave up the rich plains and moved to Liyue Harbor, which was still a barren area.

"Strategic considerations? Well, it makes sense, it is worthy of Mr. Zhongli, there is such a novel angle, when I go back to the Archaeological Association, I must tell you this point of view. Sister Wan was a little excited.

The two chatted and went deep into the ruins,

Soon, a gate shrouded in enchantment appeared in front of everyone,

In front of the gate, there are also many members of the archaeological team holding instruments to collect some data.

Seeing Sister Wan appear with someone,

Someone immediately walked over: "Sister Wan, we have tried all the recorded relic energy frequencies, and there is no match." ”

The visitor also shook the instrument in his hand.

Many of Liyue's ruins are protected by enchantments.

In the process of archaeology, it is not the first time that the archaeological team has encountered such a situation.

And the archaeological team also has a lot of data to use.

As long as you find the same data as the crystallization energy frequency, you can use the corresponding data to release the energy crystallization.

But alas, this time it failed.

"Okay, then let's take a rest first, I asked a famous traveler to help, and Zhongli Keqing from the Hall of the Dead is also here, let them take a look first."

Sister Wan shouted to the busy archaeological team members.

Hearing Sister Wan's words, everyone stopped and put away all kinds of instruments.

Then he walked to the side of the makeshift camp and looked at Ying and Zhongli and the group.

Given Ying's prestige and Zhongli's reputation in Liyue,

But no one raised any questions that laymen don't understand,

On the contrary, many members of the archaeological team looked at them with some expectation, hoping to gain something.

Zhongli is also welcome,

Walking directly in front of the stable energy junction interface,

"Well, it's really something left over from the end, let me see it."

Muttering, Zhongli stretched out his hands and manipulated the energy barrier.

It's also strange to say, no matter how the archaeological team makes an enchantment that doesn't react,

As soon as Zhongli's hand was put up, there was a change,

A large number of runes appeared on the enchantment, constantly deconstructing and reorganizing, dazzling to watch.

The corners of Ying's mouth twitched slightly, fortunately he invited Zhongli over, if he came by himself, he would be embarrassed.

For the scumbag duo of Ying and Paimon, these runes are no different from the Book of Heaven.

Under the expectant gaze of all,

Zhongli's fingertips kept pointing on the energy barrier,

Gradually, the runes that kept deconstructing and reorganizing gradually slowed down,

The energy barrier flickered for a few moments, and finally several lines of ancient Liyue characters appeared.

What is the underlying structure of alchemy? 】

How to create life from nothing? 】

[Where is the balance between mechanical structure and energy drive?] 】

On the side, Sister Wan's expression was upright, as an archaeologist, she was naturally proficient in ancient characters.

"There are still problems to test, tsk, have these problems been solved by the ancients? Gu Liyue's technique is really too strong. ”

Sister Wan said excitedly, and some resting archaeological team members also surrounded her.

Zhongli also stopped his movements and looked at Ying: "Traveler, can you answer these questions?" ”

Ying's face is confused,

Alchemy, Ying is no stranger, and she can use a few hands, but what is the underlying structure of alchemy? This is somewhat out of the ordinary.

Creating life from nothing, this Ying has seen Albedo and Wang Daoyi, but she can't either.

What is the balance between mechanical structure and energy drive? Ying's eyes have begun to bubble up.

Looking at Ying's dazed face,

Zhongli was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "There are a lot of books on Daoyi's side, you may be able to read a little when you have time." ”

Tears run, I'm really sorry for you for not reading much.

Zhongli wasn't looking at Ying either, his eyes turned to the archaeological team: "Several, do you want to try it?" There should be no limit to the number of times you can answer the question. ”

Sister Wan and the others were already a little excited when they saw this enchantment question, so naturally they would not refuse.

Immediately, someone walked over.

Looking at the first question,

What is the underlying structure of alchemy? 】

"I remember that when I was taking an alchemy class in the miscellaneous courtyard of the Tongwen Academy, the teacher said that alchemy is the exchange of energy and matter, so my answer is exchange."

He reached out and tapped a few ancient Liyue characters on the barrier,

[The underlying structure of alchemy is exchange. 】

The energy barrier flickered.

【Full Marks...】

The archaeological team's eyes lit up,

[10 out of 10, give you one point.] 】

The archaeological team's face collapsed.

"Haha, I'll come, I'll come." Someone pushed him away and walked to the knot, "Alchemy can create a lot of magical things, these things don't exist in nature, so, these things come from the interaction of different materials, so, the underlying structure of alchemy is reaction. ”

A flash of enchantment,

[10 out of 10, give you one point.] 】

"It's deconstruction, I heard an alchemy master say that if you want to learn alchemy well, you must be proficient in the deconstruction of matter and energy."

A flash of enchantment,

[10 out of 10, give you one point.] 】

……

Most of the archaeological team members have real materials, and many of the answers they put forward make sense.

But in front of the flickering knot, I can't even get past the first question,

Don't talk about it, there is not even a person who has more than one point.

Quietly walking up to Zhongli's side, Paimon poked Zhongli's arm, "Hey, Zhongli, do you know the answer?" ”

Zhongli glanced at the archaeologists who were still answering the questions, and then shook his head slightly: "I don't know." ”

"Huh?" Paimon's face was stunned, a little incredulous, "You don't know either?" ”

Paimon's astonishment provoked Ying's gaze to look at Zhongli as well.
