The smile on Rama's face was even gentler, "Please, Mr. Diluc. If it is a cooperation, of course, the partners should be relieved. ”

"I once got the alchemy potion you provided in the early days from Jean's hands." Diluc gets straight to the point, "Your work in that period, and your work in Mondstadt, seem to go in two directions. ”

"It's not hard to explain." Rama said slowly, "I didn't completely deny the basic values of human beings in the early days. ”

"Big nobles like Ragefender and Gunnhilde should also have special secret elixirs and other things to polish their bodies, right?"

Rama's early research was actually a mere reinforcement.

"Yes, indeed." Kaeya had a look of remembrance on her face, "Mr. Rama is so honest, we can't hide it. ”

Rama was talking about the experience of the god of grass, he was talking about the shameful experience of the god of grass, and if the same thing were to be done in Mondstadt, the people of Mondstadt should kneel directly on the ground······ Ah, it doesn't seem like anything.

The higher-ups of the Order knew that Wendy had been overturned by the Fatui executive at the church gate, and they didn't feel much shame because the gods had been humiliated.

Although there is an idea of doing it, this matter has nothing to do with Wendy, even if it is not a problem, if it is replaced by that ordinary person, the Knights will still be angry.

The main thing is that Wendy is too swinging.

Everyone looked back and thought about it for a while, and unanimously decided that the reason why he was overturned by the car must be his own replay.

There's no way to get angry, there's no way to feel any humiliation.

After all, this is Wendy, and this is Mondstadt's characteristic god.

Kaeya's smile grew more playful.

But this is characteristic of Mondstadt, and in other realms, Rama's unfortunate experience of being a god is a great deal of sincerity.

"I'm not a child of House Lygunfender, but I was lucky enough to be appreciated by Lord Cripps, and then I became a member of Rygunfender." Kaeya also began to thunder.

Diluc closed his eyes in silence.

"And then because of something, I had a disagreement with Diluc, and I ended up leaving the Legon Fender family." Kaeya smiled and said, "These past experiences are not good to sell in front of you, but I have indeed enjoyed the family secret medicine of Ragenande. ”

"These elixirs have almost the same effect as the alchemy potions you provided, but they are indeed different potions, thus perfectly circumventing the resistance of the elixir."

Drink medicine, exercise······ The effect of this secret medicine is to strengthen the human body and to repair the damage suffered by the body during the exercise.

But if you take too much of the same medicine, your body will develop natural resistance, and the secret medicine will almost completely lose its effect.

In addition, it's too expensive, it's just too expensive.

Rama's early research actually falls into this category.

Just as the human body can burst out with greater strength and speed through exercise, the alchemical potions of this period are all in the service of this purpose.

But in the middle of the game, Rama got the information from the Fatui, and he suddenly found that it seemed to be much better to directly steal the traits of other powerful beings than to simply limit themselves to the research direction of [strengthening the human body].

The only problem with this kind of research is that if people are fused with non-humans, the usual result is death.

Collei is a special case, and Rama doesn't plan to challenge his luck.

"This is my early research, just like your family's secret medicine, to make an alchemical potion suitable for the human body."

Rama seemed to remember something, and his smile became more and more gentle: "But then I met my partner when I was in the desert, [Childe] Tartaglia. ”

"It's a good friend, and as long as you can pay for what he wants, he'll give you what you want."

"I got some research material about the Fatui from him."

Rama looked at Diluc, and his words were meaningful: "Including part of the study of the evil eye, it also includes... A few years ago, the data on human experiments on the little girl who created the Black Fire case in Mondstadt. ”

Kaeya smiled awkwardly.

Diluc glanced at him, a rare smile on his face.

Although it tastes a little ridiculous.

During the Black Fire case, Kaeya deliberately deceived Collei with the intention of creating an atmosphere of "I'll kill you" and then creating an opportunity for Amber to get close to Collei.

never thought that Amber would kill Collei instantly, and he also wanted to create an opportunity for "heroes to save beauty", but Collei had already been taken down by Amber at that time, and he didn't need to draw snakes at all.

In the face of his pressing step by step, the other party actually controlled part of the power of the demon god, and calmly sought death.

Reasonable, does this make sense?

Afterwards, Kaeya only saw Amber pulling Collei to walk around the bell tower, and then turned around, which became the other party's "emotional power", and he simply suppressed the demon god power in his body.

In the alley, Kaeya first oppressed Collet, but Collei was unable to control the power of the demon god, and was soon countered by the force, and then he was about to destroy Kaeya.

The first half was very much in line with Kaeya's plan, and the second half Kaeya couldn't understand it.

Collei suddenly reined in his power and voluntarily abandoned his defenses, intending to die by Kaeya's sword.

If someone hadn't come, Kaeya wouldn't have known how it would have ended.

Is it "Yo, I'm really going to kick down" to learn a wave of yellow apes, or "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person"?

You keep fighting, you suddenly control it, and then you plan to die······ So what do I do? Did I really kill you?

There was something awkward about the old story, but Kaeya quickly forgot about it—only Diluc knew about it, and he wouldn't say much about it.

"So, you saw a simpler and more straightforward path to it, and you gave up on your earlier research?" Kaeya mused, "That's ······"

"There's no way." Rama's words were helpless, "Since Mr. Kaeya knows about the Black Fire case, he should know about Collai's situation at that time. ”

"A sick girl, a sick girl who has not received formal training and upbringing, and who has no vision."

"Such a girl, yet able to slaughter the Fatui at an almost massacre level in Mondstadt."

He looked at Diluc, "No offense, I heard the story of Mr. Diluc leaving the Order in anger. ”

"Before leaving, you have a family tradition of Lygunfender, trained by the Knights, and at the same time received the Vision of God."

"But at that age, is Mr. Diluc sure to do the same thing as Collei?"

Collei at the time of the Black Fire was even younger than Diluc, who left Mondstadt.

"I can't do it." Diluc simply admitted, "When you mention this kind of problem, I'll put myself in the position of genius." ”

"If I can't do it at that age, I don't think anyone else can."

Yes, of course there is.

Diluc's talent is good, but Shenhe, Tartaglia, and even half-demons like Kujou Sara are not bad at all.

Like Tartaglia, his level and talent were among the best of his generation, the only problem was that none of his opponents were contemporaries.

But Rama, of course, would not contradict Diluc, he just echoed Diluc's arguments and then supported his own ideas.

"So you see, if we are purely confined to the path of [humanity], we may have a future, but it will not be enough."

"You still have the Vision," Rama said meaningfully, "but as everyone knows, the Vision is a gift from the gods, so what if the gods are not willing to give you this opportunity?" ”

Then you can only pray that you are a macho man of the level of Allen Delin, a man who is physically excellent enough to have no successor to the sword he created.

He doesn't have a vision, but the rest of the Order does.

But none of the other colleagues of the same period, including the successors of the Knights, could inherit this inheritance of the Zephyr swordsmanship.

The superiority of the conditions needs to be countered by others, and the failures of others bring out the excellence of Allen Delin.

Objective talent always needs to be recognized, and geniuses like Alendrin, Diluc, and Shenhe will always be in the minority.

Even they, before the real catastrophe, can only choose to resign themselves to fate.

"Your malice towards the gods is a little heavier." Kaeya said with a sincere expression, "I may be a little shallow in saying this, but Mr. Rama is indeed excessive. ”

Talking is usually stupid, but it can also be used to indicate an attitude - I think my friendship with you is enough.

There will be no problem with that.

Criticizing the gods doesn't actually cause much trouble, and usually even if the gods knew, they would treat them as if they didn't know.

Don't care at all.

On the contrary, it is those who believe in the gods, and this is the main force of the pursuit.

But there is no one else here, and there is nothing wrong with talking about it.

"The Vision of God is a tool," Rama smiled and nodded in agreement, and sure enough, he was not talking about the gods, "The human body does have limits in objective facts. ”

"But being able to use tools, being able to accumulate wisdom, these are also our talents."

"I understand the human body as a weapon, and the sharpness of a weapon is usually determined when it leaves the blacksmith's hands."

It doesn't seem to be just a partner.

Rama thought for a moment and planned to continue the conversation.

If he could, maybe it wasn't just Sucrose, but Diluc and Kaeya, or even the Knights of Favonius, he would be able to pack it up and take it away.

Although it is not brought back to Sumeru, there is a good chance that it will become another testing ground.

Because Diluc and Kaeya, and even Jean, they all crave power.

No matter how much Jean respects Wendy, it can only be said that it is the teaching of Gunnhilde and the Knights.

But in reality? In fact, she saw the beginning of the dragon plague, and saw Wendy being by an executive in front of the church.

With Qin's philosophy, she will not resent the inaction of the gods in these things, which is not Qin's nature.

She only resents herself, why she didn't do better, why she wasn't strong enough.

That's a good thing.

Resent your own powerlessness, and then you will find ways to seek change.

This is something that Jean can't do.

Her various configurations are already very top-notch, and in the top, she can only seek the power of gods or abysses.

If you can't raise the configuration, it's very difficult to continue to practice hard with the current configuration.

Unfortunately, she can't touch any of these high-profiles, so she can only maintain this level until the end of the story.

The story of Teyvat is the story of mortals and gods, but mortals are just people who experience stories, and gods are gods who tell stories.

He speaks of freedom, and you are a free person.

He talks about the country, and you are the one who stays where you are.

"The human body is also a sword, and the actual value of the sword is completely determined the moment it leaves the hands of the craftsman."

"What kind of ore you choose, and how skilled the craftsman who crafts the sword, determines the actual value of the sword."

"Of course, if the sword is forged and picked up by the wind god, it can be sold for a higher price," Rama described calmly, "but that's not the actual value of the sword. ”

The weapon's role is to kill, and it may gain additional value because of the honorable status of the owner, but this added value does not affect its own work.

The human body is the same.

"But the sword is not impossible to cast twice, the process you provide is the secondary and tertiary refining and casting of the human body." Kaeya let out a sigh of relief, but still held up a smile, "This concept is really interesting. ”

It is worthy of human experimentation, and in Rama's eyes, human beings are a sword that has been forged out of the furnace.

A person's physical qualifications are determined before birth, just as ore and other materials determine the upper limit of the sword.

And the craftsman's acquired beating and tempering determine the actual effect of the sword.

Their polishing of their bodies also determines how much potential they can exert in their bodies.

Diluc bowed slightly, "Mr. Rama's thoughts, we already know it completely. ”

"To tell you the truth, we didn't think you would be able to be so honest before we came."

Rama's statement goes deep enough.

He may not have been unaware of Albedo's position, and he must have been able to guess that Albedo backed up his research materials.

In other words, Rama presented all the ideas and materials of the research.

This is honestly a bit excessive.

He was so honest that all of Diluc's previous preparations were insufficient.

Rama smiled and waited for Diluc's final response.

While backstabbed by a traitor to the Knights, Diluc chose to leave Mondstadt and travel to the North.

During this time, he escaped death many times, and finally developed a rather cold personality.

But people will change their temperament greatly because of what they encounter when they grow up, but they will also leave themselves with some kind of lifelong perseverance because of the education they were exposed to when they were young.

Diluc received a formal education as a nobleman and a knight as a child, and most of the nobles of Mondstadt understood true free will after the battles of the nobility in their early years.

The education of Lygfender and the Knights underpinned the first half of Diluc's life.

He has a high baseline and isn't very good at backstabbing allies.

The more sincerity Rama shows, the more integrity Diluc receives will require him to reciprocate.

Diluc hesitated for a moment, then looked at the red and blue potions in the suitcase.

"Is there any specific distinction between these potions?"

Always ask your doctor for advice before taking medication.

Rama heard a certain inclination, so he replied in a deep voice, "The basis of the current research is that the two deceptive flowers of ice and fire can completely preserve the human form and obtain the power of monsters. ”

Strictly speaking, the power of Ice and Fire to deceive flowers is not very strong.

For ordinary people, these two bastards who can open shields and burrow into the ground are already dangerous monsters that can rattle and kill.

As for Diluc and Kaeya, the foundation of these two monsters is not enough, after all, they can even kill these two monsters with a single fire and ice and carry an elemental shield.

But the core of the alchemy potion is to bless the characteristics of monsters on the basis of the human body.

Aside from the power of the Vision, Diluc could only rely on the Evil Eye.

If you want to master the elemental power, human beings always need to use a little external force, and the elemental power of monsters is innate, they can naturally master the elemental power, and they don't need any external force.

The hilichurl shamans in the wild, the hilichurl kings, are all capable of mastering a considerable degree of elemental power.

Diluc opened the injection and inserted it decisively into his forearm.

Before Kaeya could stop him, Diluc had already completed the exchange of trust.

The cavalry captain stood up quietly and walked to the counter to get a bottle of wine, which he stopped behind Rama to make sure that he could not leave suddenly.

"It's also very sincere." Rama smiled and said, "I thought you would find someone else to try it and make sure they wouldn't have a problem before you chose to take the alchemy potion." ”

His credibility is still there.

This is the importance of character design.

You can be a capricious person, of course, but you have to convince everyone that you will do what you promised and that they will get what they deserve in what they promised.

This is the most basic thing.

Capriciousness is okay, but capriciousness doesn't bring benefits, that's not okay.

In the cooperation between Rama and Tartaglia, he did sell the Fatui on many occasions.

But it's all built on the fact that he fulfilled his promise.

This is necessary for integrity.

If a person is capricious and never fulfills his promises, and he is still in a high position, even if such a person cannot be killed, no one else will choose to believe any of his promises.

You can't get a reputation to that extent.

Rama doesn't necessarily really want to do more, but there are some things that come at a great cost.

For example, at this moment, if Diluc really chose to rashly take alchemy potions completely out of sincere exchange, then he would naturally be a hopeless fool.

This was not the case, he had considered Rama's reputation, weighed the pros and cons of deceiving himself, and finally found that he could make a desperate effort to show his trust.

No matter how bad it is, there is still the wind god on it, so you can give it a try.
