Chapter 142: Holy Relic: Warrior's Heart (2-in-1 Chapter)
"In other words, artificially create an environment with a relatively high concentration of elemental forces for me to practice?"
Li Qiuzhi said thoughtfully.
This is also very easy to understand, for example, Li Qiuzhi has seventy small balls formed by different elemental forces in front of him.
Ten of the seven elemental powers, they are all mixed together, and now Li Qiuzhi needs to pick out the small ball of the wind element, then as a novice, it will be a little slower, and even if he finds it, it is normal that he does not hold it steady for a while.
And it takes a lot more energy.
What Ying did was to pick out the ten wind element balls first, and put them directly in front of Li Qiuzhi like "feeding".
Maybe it's not quite accurate, but it's good to grasp the meaning.
Obviously, this environment with a high concentration of elements will make it much easier for Li Qiuzhi to practice.
"I see, the clever Paimon understands." Paimon, who was wearing a small short-sleeved shirt, nodded, and then took a bite of the apple he was holding, followed by a crisp chewing sound.
"Well, that's it, so you try it now."
Her fair right foot came out of the slipper, retracted slightly, and pressed her ankle between the underside of her left leg and the soft sofa.
"Okay, no problem."
Li Qiuzhi nodded, and his two hands, one left and one right, were close to the wind element floating and spinning on the white palm.
He relied on his senses to activate the character specialty [Gospel of the Split Sky], trying to slowly guide the wind element in front of him to control his own hands.
The swirling wind elemental cluster on the glow's hand stagnated slightly.
Then two small "tentacles" were led to Li Qiuzhi's hands, and as expected, with Ying's assistance, it was much easier than guiding himself.
"Wow, it's moving, it's really moving, Li Qiuzhi you're quite talented." Paimon swallowed the chewed flesh and exclaimed, then said in confusion, "Hey, why did you go back again?"
As Paimon Jr. said, just when Li Qiuzhi thought he was going to succeed.
The wind elementals that he had drawn out shrank back again, and it seemed that even if there was an environment with strong elemental power, it would take a few more exercises to do it.
"How does it feel?" Ying said as she brushed her hair with her left hand that was not yet completely dry.
"It's a lot easier, but it also seems to be an extra resistance to fighting you for control of the wind element."
Li Qiuzhi thought about it, summed up his feelings and said.
"My resistance?" Ying pursed her lips, her white jaw twitched, and continued in understanding, "This time I will let go of the wind elemental's control, and I will seize the opportunity to try to guide them when they begin to dissipate. ”
"Hmm." Li Qiuzhi said softly, his palm continuing to hold the rotating wind elemental cluster.
As soon as Ying's mind moved, the wind elemental lost her maintenance and was about to dissipate, and Li Qiuzhi took advantage of this time to guide them again.
The cyan wind elemental seemed to have gained some kind of strength to maintain its gathering, and began to slowly spin between his palms.
"It seems that if it succeeds, hey, it's scattered, can't these wind elements be obedient?"
Paimon once again thought that Li Qiuzhi was going to succeed, but he was disappointed again.
"It's okay, I feel like I've got the hang of it, so I'll use this method, let's try a few more times."
Li Qiuzhi was not as disappointed as Paimon, he had indeed succeeded in controlling the wind element just now, but it didn't last long.
As long as you get familiar with it a few times, I believe you will be able to get started soon.
After a long time.
Ying and Paimon had been accompanying Li Qiuzhi to practice controlling the wind element, and they yawned, feeling a little tired.
And Li Qiuzhi has a relationship with [abundant life] expertise, and he doesn't seem to feel sleepy.
How many times he had practiced, Li Qiuzhi didn't pay attention to it, anyway, he looked at the hand of the Ying Condensing Wind Element, as if he couldn't lift it a little.
Little by little, my head seems to be about to fall asleep at any moment.
Li Qiuzhi looked at the unstable wind element that seemed to dissipate at any time condensed in her hand.
He didn't wait for Ying to revoke his control over the wind element, but directly tried to guide it, this time the resistance he faced was very small, and the rotating wind element simply came to Li Qiuzhi's hand.
One second, ten seconds, one minute, three minutes......
"Whew~ It's finally successful!" Li Qiuzhi said in surprise that he felt that he could control this wind element freely.
After playing for a while, he withdrew the control of his opponent's upper hand elementals, and when they completely dissipated, Li Qiuzhi tried to channel the condensed elemental power without the assistance of Ying.
A subtle breeze swirled in the palm of his hand, and after many times of practicing to familiarize himself with the feeling of channeling the wind element, he had successfully mastered this technique!
"Ah, did it work, if it doesn't work again, I'm going to fall asleep."
Paimon, who was lying on the couch with her soft thighs, rubbed his confused eyes.
"It seems that you have studied well, so let's stop here today, and you should be able to apply it to actual combat after a few days of practice."
Ying was also relieved to see that Li Qiuzhi had finally succeeded, and raised her hands to reveal a lazy waist, and the white short-sleeved vest was slightly lifted to reveal her snow-white lower abdomen.
……
The next morning.
After Li Qiuzhi finished breakfast, he came to the Knights and greeted the Knight of Favonius standing at the door, and entered the office of the acting leader.
"Two Knights of Honor, and Paimon, you're here."
Jean, dressed in the Knights' uniform, said with a smile that this time she was not sitting at the desk and chair in the office area near the window.
Instead, I was slightly surprised to see a cup of steaming black tea in front of the long square table on the right.
The Scout Knight, with a red rabbit ear knot on his head, also sat next to her.
"Good morning, Captain Jean, huh? Amber is also there. ”
Paimon first greeted Jean, then looked at Amber in some surprise and said.
"Hehe, I'm also a knight of the west wind, what's so strange here, Li Qiuzhi and Ying, come over and drink tea!"
With a smile on her fair face, Amber stood up and picked up the ceramic teapot on the table, and poured a cup of black tea for several people.
"Wow, it's so warm."
Paimon didn't sit down on the chair like Li Qiuzhi and the others, but directly suspended in mid-air, picked up the teacup and sniffed it on his nose and said.
Jean picked up the white teacup and put it in her soft lips and took a sip:
"This is a gift from Liyue's celestial star when he came to Mondstadt to discuss business cooperation.
"It seems to be a kind of tea produced on a tea tree called 'Dyeing Dragon Snow', according to Liyue, this special tea tree is different from the general growth pattern, only growing young buds and leaves on a large scale every winter, they need to be nourished by snow and cold, and only when picked during the 'heavy snow' can there be a special tea aroma, which is very rare, so it is very precious."
"Heavy snow? Is it a snowy day? ”
Ying looked at the face reflected in the red liquid on the teacup, and said with some confusion.
"'Heavy snow' doesn't mean heavy snowfall, it's a solar term in the calendar of neighboring Liyue, a fixed day."
Amber explained.
"I see." Both Ying and Paimon nodded.
"Hehe, Li Qiuzhi is from Liyue, so he should know something about it, right?"
Amber asked, looking at the young adventurer.
“……”
Li Qiuzhi paused when he picked up the teacup, he understood the 'solar terms', but how did he know what was not said in the game of tea tree.
Well. When he first crossed over, he didn't tell Amber the truth due to various reasons, which always made him feel a little sorry for Amber.
Now is the right time to take this opportunity to explain that if you continue to do so anyway, you will be exposed one day, so it is better to take the initiative to say it, so as not to lose your favor.
"That Amber. Actually, I'm not from Liyue. Li Qiuzhi was silent for a moment and replied.
"Uh-huh?!"
Amber nodded twice to indicate that I was listening, and then her eyes widened in response.
"Ahem, actually." Li Qiuzhi patiently explained his coming from another world to Amber and Captain Qin, "At that time, I said that I was from Liyue to avoid being misunderstood by you, after all, I said that I was from another world, and no matter who I was, I would think there was something wrong with him. ”
"Well, if I hadn't known you for a long time, and knew that you weren't a prankster, I would have thought you were joking."
Amber said with a little surprise.
"No wonder, you seemed to be an ordinary person who was not strong in martial arts before, and it is understandable to hide your bizarre origin."
Jean's snow-white back rested on the back of the shawl and nodded thoughtfully.
"Well, since there is a reason for it, I don't care about you deceiving me."
Amber's red rabbit ears shook knots, and her soft lips curled slightly, and she said with a smile:
"I'm glad you told me my secrets, which shows that I'm still worthy of the trust of my friends."
[Amber has a favorable opinion of you, gain 300 opinion points, and the current friendship level is 4 (350/400)]
"Amber is right, as an honorary knight, the Knights are also your strong backing no matter what!"
Jean folded her hands and hugged her chest, and said with a faint smile.
[Jean has a favor for you, gain 180 opinion points, and the current friendship level is 5 (10/500)]
Because of their high reputation base, Amber and the head of the Qin troupe expressed their understanding of Li Qiuzhi even when they heard such an unexpected thing, which made him somewhat relieved.
"Ahem, that piano leader, Amber, in fact, I am too."
At this time, Yingya, who had white flowers pinned to her golden hair, said with an embarrassed face.
“……”
Captain Qin and Amber looked helpless, when did there be so many visitors from other worlds.
Not only did he appear in Mondstadt, but he also became an honorary knight of the Knights of Favonius.
After thoroughly figuring out the matter of Li Qiuzhi and Ying, Qin sighed and nodded:
"Your affairs are indeed a bit unexpected, and there is indeed a certain reason for you to hide it, too many people know that it will inevitably cause trouble, so we will not announce that the two honorary knights are visitors from another world.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, you guys are here to get the holy relic I promised yesterday as reward."
"Well, that's right." Li Qiuzhi and Ying nodded slightly.
"I have two sets of holy relics here, because they have the same power relationship, even if it is still in the initial state, the resonance effect of the suit can provide a good power blessing to the bearer."
Jean stood up and took out two sets of holy relics from the Eye of the Gods with a golden color and placed them in front of the two of them.
"Ah, it's beautiful!" Paimon looked at their colors and thought of the round Mora.
"Hmph~ They are called 'Warrior's Heart', in the past, the Knights discovered a new secret realm, and everyone went to explore it together, and they found it there."
Amber said with a slight smile on her fair face.
"I see, then we will accept it politely." Li Qiuzhi nodded and said.
He remembered that the "Warrior's Heart" was a relic in the game with a two-piece set that increased attack power, and a four-piece set that dealt a damage boost to targets with high health.
Overall it's pretty good.
The existence of holy relics and treasure chests is relatively magical, and its essence is that it has been precipitated by a long history and has magical powers.
So the way the gear carries them is also magical.
No matter who touches it with their hands, they can choose to fuse it into the body in the form of energy, so that even if it is successfully carried, it is very simple to take it out with a single thought.
After receiving the reward of the Knights, Li Qiuzhi and the others were ready to leave without anything else.
According to the plan before going out, after the three of them came to the Knights to receive the reward, they went to the Adventurers' Guild to receive the commission.
Ying hadn't asked Wendy if she knew who the god who had taken her brother was, but she probably knew that it wasn't the out-of-tune wind god.
So soon she'll be embarking on the next leg of her trip, but before she can do so, she'll need to earn enough Mora to buy some of the necessary supplies in Mondstadt.
After all, it would take about a month for a caravan to travel to Liyue, the nearest neighbor to Mondstadt, in wagons.
She and Paimon can't continue to sleep in the open and hunt for a living, but at least bring enough food and clean water.
"Hey, wait, Li Qiuzhi, traveler, you shouldn't be okay now, right?"
Amber stopped Li Qiu and gave them.
"Huh? Is there anything going on with Amber? Paimon asked, tilting his head a little confused.
"Later, I'm going to post your brother's missing person notice, and by the way, I'm going to clean up some of the debris on the city walls and rooftops due to the wind disaster, do you have time together?"
Amber said thoughtfully.
"Of course I want to go!"
Ying nodded heavily, it can be a little later to take over the matter of earning Mora, but if you look for your brother, you must pay attention to it first.
"In that case, I'll help too." Of course, Li Qiuzhi will not refuse.
"Hey, me too."
Paimon held up a hand, indicating that he was going to join in.
"Okay, then let's take a look from the roof of the Knights, I don't know if anything is blowing up."
Amber said with a smile on her fair face.
Next, everyone waved goodbye to the head of the group, left the office of the acting head of the group, and walked to the staircase at the back of the hall to the upper floor, led by Amber.
Two girls in over-the-knee white boots walked up the steps with their skirts and belted shorts covering and wrapping their hips, their heels tapping against the ground with a crisp sound.
Thanks to "Ayato's brother-in-law" for the 308 coins tip!
