I built the Black Tower City in Sumeru.

Chapter 92 Narcida, what are you researching? Preparing the Lightning Hypostasis clone for the Monds

Chapter 92 Narcida, what are you researching? Preparing the Lightning Hypostasis clone for the Mondstadt Badminton Festival.

Chen Bo carefully sorted and organized the items that Dao Qi had brought back. He placed several unique trinkets on his desk as decorations.

Farusan also shared her observations from this period of time.

"Chen Bo, I've observed some interesting changes in Farusan's behavior patterns over this period of time."

Chen Bo casually picked up a wooden carving of Inazuma and adjusted its position: "Oh? What change?"

The frequency of her "waiting behavior" to return home late increased significantly, and her facial micro-expressions during the waiting process exhibited a complex interplay.

Nasita continued her analysis: "Based on my summary of human emotional data, this gaze oscillates between two typical patterns: the 'waiting-for-husband' and the 'motherly watchful gaze.' Which one do you think better describes Farusan's state?"

The Waiting-for-Husband Stone and the Loving Mother Watching Over Each Other—does this mean that Farus is somewhat like a wife and also somewhat like a mother?

Chen Bo thought about it carefully and found that what Nasida said didn't seem to be wrong.

However, Chen Bo still found it a bit funny.

"Senior Falusan—perhaps she's simply concerned about her student?"

Chen Bo wasn't very perceptive, but he did notice that after moving into Farusan's house, Farusan never rested, no matter when he returned.

Nasida then changed the subject and mentioned Kolai again.

"However, the frequency of Cole's smiles has increased by 33.7% recently since she started seeing you."

Chen Bo nodded in agreement, saying, "Indeed, Ke Lai has been smiling more and more lately, although she wasn't exactly pessimistic before."

However, the next second, Nasita's words sent chills down Chen Bo's spine.

"Furthermore, based on my analysis of your facial expressions during your conversation with Yae no Miko, your level of excitement and micro-expression activity are far higher than your average when you are with other people."

"Does this mean that you prefer a girl like Yae no Miko to Farusan and Cole?"

The room fell into a deathly silence.

Chen Bo's expression froze. "No way, my Naxida, what are you observing?"

"Nasita, I think you could consider writing a book called 'A Study on Human Micro-expressions and Survival Instinct'," Chen Bo said, changing the subject to defuse the awkwardness.

"Oh right, I still have an important paper to write at the Faculty of Education, I need to go there right away."

Chen Bo practically fled in panic.

Chen Bo left, while Luna One remained in Chen Bo's room to monitor the Divine Child.

Learn some spying techniques from the divine child.

Stepping out of his home, the morning air of Sumeru City, with its unique moisture and freshness of the rainforest, allowed him to relax his tense nerves slightly.

Before even entering their group's project lab, Chen Bo heard complaints at the door.

"That Anil, he thinks he's got way too much of himself!" This was the voice of Instructor Hamid, filled with undisguised anger. "He just joined the group and immediately took leave for several days straight, completely disregarding us seniors!"

Another voice, from Instructor Reza, chimed in, "Hmph, just because they're recommended by a sage, they think they can do whatever they want in the Council of Churches? They have no scientific spirit whatsoever!"

"I think he's just a nepotism hire; he doesn't understand what research is at all!" The third voice came from Professor Farook: "Keeping someone like him in the project team will only slow us down! I think we should just kick him out!"

Chen Bo stopped outside the laboratory and overheard their conversation clearly.

Alas, the time has come for the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King.

Chen Bo pushed the door open and entered without knocking.

In the laboratory, the three mentors, Hamid, Reza, and Farouk, were gathered around an experimental table, still looking at the blueprints for the wind element.

When they saw Chen Bo enter, they were taken aback at first, then their faces turned cold, and they couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to this junior.

Chen Bo took out the lightning element mechanical core that he had previously created and placed it on the table.

It was a sophisticated mechanism emitting a faint purple glow. It was composed of countless tiny metal parts, with intricate and mysterious runes engraved on its surface, and a faint electric current surging inside, emitting a subtle "buzzing" sound.

This is actually the lightning elemental drive core on his own armor, a printed backup.

The three mentors were immediately drawn to it.

Hamid was the first to react; he picked up the mechanism and examined it carefully.

During the observation, his gaze shifted rapidly, from initial disdain to shock.

"This—this is impossible!" Hamid exclaimed in disbelief.

Reza and Farouk also came over, and soon their faces also showed shock.

Normally, it takes about a year to reverse engineer a new technology.

The three of them are still in the stage of translating documents.

And Chen Bo has already produced the finished product in just a few days?

"You—you did this all by yourself?" Reza questioned.

Farouk went even further, asking directly, "This couldn't possibly be something you made! You can't even recognize all the ancient characters on it. Did Farouk make it for you?!"

"Has Farusan obtained similar information about relics?"

Professor Farouk didn't think Farouk could figure it out in about three days; it would take at least thirty days, and three hundred days was quite normal.

It's just speculation that Farusian has already researched similar technologies.

"If Senior Falushan had researched this, wouldn't she have published a paper already?" Chen Bo laughed. "Besides, is it really necessary to trouble Senior Falushan with such simple drawings?"

Reza didn't believe it. He casually picked up the "Wind Attribute Element Driven Core" explanation they were still translating and handed it to Chen Bo:

3y

I don't believe you can understand ancient writing.

Chen Bo tilted his head and took the document, reading aloud the words and pointing out the structure of the text.

"This 'wind hub' refers to the point where elements converge; the 'airflow guiding patterns' are the energy transmission paths." Are those ancient scripts difficult to learn?

The three mentors were completely shocked.

A genius has emerged from the Academy of Education. No wonder he was assigned to the mentor group.

Chen Bo said, "Perfect, I'll study this wind attribute element driving core today."

97

"It won't take up too much time."

In just two hours, Chen Bo read through the entire technical document from beginning to end, and he had completely memorized it and learned most of the knowledge.

The next stage was to verify the technology in a dream, with Nasita's help.

"Teachers, I need to take three more days off."

After saying that, Chen Bo turned and left.

It feels so good to show off and then get slapped in the face.

It felt incredibly good.

As Chen Bo stepped out of the laboratory, he noticed a change in the security forces within the Academy.

Many of the key outposts, originally guarded by a group of thirty mercenaries, have been turned into their own capture mechs.

This is a good start.

His mechanical army is gradually infiltrating and replacing the armed forces of Sumeru.

Chen Bo's capture machine had three layers of encryption, and the Order Institute only cracked the outermost layer.

The two deeper layers are hidden.

The Council of the Order would never use uncontrollable machinery; the outermost layer of encryption is merely for phishing purposes.

Dream space.

Chen Bo and Naxida are modifying Chen Bo's armor together.

"Nashida, I envision adding a pair of wind element cores to the shoulder area of ​​the armor, so that the mech will be driven by the three elements of grass, lightning, and wind."

"Even if both systems are damaged, the armor can still function normally."

Nasita also helped with the analysis: "The wind element can provide greater mobility and energy circulation efficiency."

"The space on the shoulders is too small, so why not design the core of the wind element on the wings? Just by adding an interface on the back, the power of the wind element can be naturally channeled into the body."

Chen Bo's eyes lit up: "That's right, the other elemental cores can be made into plug-in components."

"The diffusion reaction can increase the coverage and intensity of elemental energy, and with the addition of wind element, my mobility will be even stronger."

The two people kept revising the test.

After seven or eight hours, a suitable version was finally found.

After the design was completed.

Chen Bo explained his next desired clone: ​​the Formless Thunder.

Nasita asked curiously, "Is it because we can use the Heart of the Thunder God now?"

Chen Bo nodded: "I'm thinking, after obtaining the clone of the Formless Thunder, could the Divine Child use this Divine Heart to nourish this clone?"

"If I succeed, then I will probably possess an extremely powerful fighting force."

I'm heading to Inazuma again. The lightning elemental environment there is even more violent, and the Electro Hypostasis is even more powerful.

After all, Inazuma is the kingdom of Narukami.

However, before setting off, he still needs to order a batch of fire elemental crystals to strengthen the Fire Hypostasis clones. He plans to use the Fire Hypostasis clones as the main force in this hunt for the Lightning Hypostasis.

However, the newly formed clone of the Formless Flame does not yet have enough power, so a batch of crystals is prepared to strengthen it.

I made a reservation with Dolly remotely.

Dolly marked a shop for Chen Bo.

This was Chen Bo's first time visiting Dolly's shop.

The shop was bustling with activity, with all sorts of strange and unusual goods piled up on the shelves. When Dolly saw Chen Bo, her eyes lit up immediately, as if she had seen a mobile gold mine.

"Oh my, my esteemed customer! Mr. Anil, you've finally arrived!" Dolly's voice was sickeningly sweet. "The fire elemental crystals you requested have been delivered by my servants. They're all top-quality, high purity, and full of energy—absolutely excellent value for money!"

She pulled a heavy box from under the counter, which shimmered with a fiery red light. As soon as the box was opened, the surrounding temperature rose considerably.

After checking the quality of the crystal and confirming that it was correct, Chen Bo readily paid Mora.

He then casually inquired about the progress of the "Remains of the Guardian" and the "Floating Stone" that he had previously entrusted to her to find.

Dolly patted her chest and said, "The remains of the Ruins Guardians? That's no problem. I've already collected a huge pile for you, as high as a small mountain! You can send someone to haul them away anytime!"

However, when the topic of "floating stones" came up, Dolly's expression became somewhat troubled: "But, as for the floating stones—well, you know, Liyue is far away, and my caravan isn't as fast as yours. We're still on our way, so we'll have to wait a bit longer."

But don't worry, as soon as I receive it, I guarantee I'll deliver it to your doorstep immediately!

Chen Bo nodded and added, "Yes, I've moved. Just deliver it to Farusan's house. Here's the address."

Chen Bo wrote a note to Dolly.

When Chen Bo returned home, he found Fiona sitting in the living room, helping him translate a novel.

Chen Bo walked over and briefly reported his itinerary: "Senior Falushan, I may have to go on a business trip for a few days to hunt the Thunder of No Form."

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible hint of worry and reluctance flashed in Farusan's eyes: "Go, go, come back soon."

"Feel free to call me anytime if you need help."

At this moment, Cole, who had been quietly reading in the corner, heard their conversation and looked at Chen Bo, saying, "Hunting the Lightning Hypostasis, are we going to Mondstadt?"

"I remember there's a Lightning Impermanence near Dadaupa Valley—"

"If you go to Mondstadt, I'd like to go too, so I can visit Amber."

Chen Bo was still hesitating between going to Inazuma or Mondstadt.

However, since Cole has spoken, then let's go to Mondstadt.

"Okay, let's go to Mondstadt." Chen Bo readily agreed: "I was originally hesitating between Inazuma and Mondstadt. Inazuma's Electro Hypostasis is stronger, while Mondstadt is closer."

"Since you're going too, let's go to Mondstadt. Even a slightly weaker Electro Hypostasis can be strengthened through training. I also want to go to Mondstadt and taste its classic wines."

Cole nodded seriously: "That's great. Speaking of which, tomorrow is the Mondstadt Badminton Festival. After a lively poetry festival, banquet, and air race, the Mondstadt people will select a young woman from the overall champions of the three competitions."

"At the height of the festival, the girls will toss a shuttlecock, symbolizing Barbatos's blessing, into the crowd. The first person to catch it will receive a generous prize and a year of good luck. The festival will continue all night long afterward; it's going to be a lot of fun."

Upon hearing this, Farusan immediately wanted to participate as well: "That sounds great! I'll go with you guys, maybe I'll even be chosen as the champion's girl!"

As she spoke, Farusan glanced at Chen Bo.

Chen Bo sensed something was very wrong. Was this... was this a tacit admission that he was the champion?

Well, if we can win the championship, we'll fulfill Senior Farusan's wish.

"Alright, let's pack our things and embark on our second family trip!"

On the eve of departure, Chen Bo's void suddenly lit up, and Naxida appeared on the screen.

"Chen Bo, I want to go this time too."

Chen Bo was taken aback: "You shouldn't be able to leave Sumeru."

Nasita explained, "I've been studying your simple AI logic module through Luna 1 all this time."

"Through in-depth exploration within the computing world of 'Moon One,' I combined my own consciousness data to successfully separate an independent slice of consciousness," or rather, I created my own data avatar.

"Although this clone doesn't possess the same power as my main body, it can escape the coverage area of ​​the void terminal and, after disconnecting from me, operate independently aboard Luna One."

Wow, no wonder he's the god of wisdom! He masters and adapts to knowledge so quickly.

Have you created a clone of your own consciousness these days?

A clone that has escaped the void and is running within its own AI logic module.
