Chapter 90 The Deal with the Divine Child, the Deal's Contents, The Heart of God.
By evening the following day, the area below Yingxiang Mountain was already a sea of lights.
Although they knew that the Doctor was unlikely to appear at a festival, Chen Bo and the other two still each wore a mask.
Cole was a little nervous; this was her first time attending such a large, foreign festival.
"Don't be afraid, we're wearing masks, no one knows us," Chen Bo's voice came from behind the mask.
Farusan, like a true senior, looked around the stalls on both sides with great interest, and kept commenting: "Hmm, the Inazuma Festival is not much different from what I remember from a hundred years ago. It's still so lively."
A goldfish scooping stall caught Cole's attention. Dozens of orange-red goldfish swam leisurely in the basin, looking clumsy yet adorable.
Cole stopped, paid the money, and then, like the people around him, picked up the paper net and carefully dipped it into the water.
But the paper net was so fragile that it tore as soon as it touched the water, before she could even catch the fish.
You can only get one paper net by paying once.
I kept paying money and kept trying, but I failed several times in a row.
"Hey, this thing looks simple, but there's a lot more to it than meets the eye." Farussan became interested, paid, picked up a paper net, and said, "Let me give it a try, back in the day—"
Before she could finish speaking, her paper net tore apart.
Fortunately, he didn't say the second half of the sentence, otherwise, his past glories would have become a laughing stock today.
"Is this your first time playing this?" A clear and energetic voice rang out from the side.
Chen Bo turned his head and saw a girl with orange hair tied in a high ponytail smiling at them. Her clothes were very special, with bandages wrapped around her arms and chest, and a God's Eye hanging from her waist.
"The trick to catching goldfish is to lower the net at an angle to reduce water pressure, and then you have to be quick, giving the fish no time to react!"
The girl is Yoomiya, the owner of "Naganohara Fireworks Shop".
She picked up a paper net and demonstrated as she spoke. With a flick of her wrist, the net sliced diagonally into the water, cleanly scooping up a goldfish and placing it into her small fish tank.
"Wow!" Cole exclaimed earnestly.
"You must be foreign tourists? Judging from your accents, you don't sound like locals." Yomiya was very familiar with the place.
"Yes, we came from Sumeru. You won't report us to the magistrate, will you?" Cole nodded and answered softly.
"No, no, but speaking of Sumeru! It's so far!" Yoomiya said enthusiastically. "So, this is your first time attending the Inatsume Festival, right? You'd better have a good time! Come on, let me show you around! I know all the good food and fun things to do at this festival best!"
Without saying a word, Xiaogong grabbed Kelai's hand.
When suddenly grabbed by a stranger, Cole froze, instinctively trying to pull her hand back.
But the warmth of Xiaogong's palm, and her uninhibited, dazzling smile, made her feel as if she were seeing that equally passionate red-clad scout knight in Mondstadt.
Amber —
They really look alike.
Kolai did not break free from Xiaogong's hand, letting Xiaogong pull her along as they wandered among the dazzling array of stalls.
"This is candied apple, it's sweet and crunchy!"
"And there are takoyaki too, be careful, they're hot!"
Xiaogong was like a tireless guide, leading Kele to sample all kinds of delicacies.
Farusan and Chen Bo followed behind, quietly taking care of paying. Chen Bo made sure to buy an extra serving of each snack.
These are prepared for Nasita. The Moon One doll cannot leave Sumeru. Nasita lives inside Moon One through the void. If she leaves the influence range of the void, she will be disconnected.
The long-range communication module can communicate, but Nasita cannot transmit her spirit and power through it.
But you can take the food back with you.
As night fell, more and more tourists arrived at the festival.
Suddenly, a deep, loud bang came from the top of Yingxiang Mountain, followed by a huge, dazzling firework blooming in the night sky.
The fireworks in Inazuma were huge and beautiful.
It is very difficult to see in Sumeru.
The crowd erupted in cheers.
"Look! Look at that golden one in the sky!" Xiaogong excitedly pointed to the sky, where a huge golden firework was slowly blooming, its petals layered upon each other, shimmering with light and color, more beautiful than any of the surrounding fireworks: "That's my specially made goldfish firework! Isn't it beautiful!"
Xiao Gong's face was full of pride and satisfaction. Although she was not in charge of the fireworks display this time, she still got a share of the fireworks in the sky.
Under the sky ablaze with fireworks, colorful lights danced across everyone's faces.
With her head tilted back, Cole unconsciously removed the fox mask from her face.
Her face was illuminated by the glow of fireworks, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned.
Is this what it feels like to be enveloped in happiness?
That's wonderful!
The fireworks display continued, and Xiao Gong stared blankly at the fireworks in the sky. Chen Bo gave Farusan and Ke Lai a wink.
"Let's go home."
The three quietly slipped out of the crowded throng and entered the nearby forest.
Deep in the forest, mecha parts came from all directions and merged onto the three people.
The three stood in mid-air, piercing the night sky under the cover of fireworks, and quickly disappeared into the clouds.
Before leaving, Cole looked back one last time.
The entire Yingxiang Mountain is visible, with the festival lights below and the embers of fireworks still lingering, creating a dazzling spectacle like a silver river spread across the land.
"Goodbye," she whispered.
I had a lot of fun on this trip.
Once again, we passed through a thunderstorm.
The three broke the sound barrier and entered supersonic cruise mode.
A tremendous sonic boom exploded on the sea surface, and the terrifying shockwave carved a long trench into the calm water.
The three of them transformed into a black line almost invisible to the naked eye, tearing through the clouds and flying towards Sumeru.
The Beidou "Southern Cross" fleet happened to be passing by. The crew members were startled by the sudden loud noise and the strange phenomenon on the sea, and they all rushed to the deck.
"What is that?!"
"The sea—the sea has been parted!"
At the bow of the ship, Beidou put down his wine glass, squinted at the sky, and only managed to see a blurry black dot disappear on the horizon.
"When did something this fast appear on the continent of Teyvat?"
"I'll talk to Ningguang later."
Supersonic speed is very fast.
The three of them returned to the rainforest in no time.
After returning to the rainforest, everyone deactivated their supersonic mode.
When passing through Huacheng Guo.
Farusan looked at Cole and said, "At this hour, Tinari must already be asleep."
"Don't bother him tonight, Cole. You can stay at my place tonight."
97
"Okay." Cole nodded obediently.
The three of them adjusted their thrusters and landed precisely in the courtyard of the Farusian family.
The armor disintegrated automatically, and the three returned home after their trip.
This is a pretty good travel experience; the journey is short, and there are no queues for various attractions.
As soon as she entered the room, Farusan rolled up her sleeves and said in an unquestionable senior tone, "After flying all the way and being exposed to the sea breeze for so long, you must be feeling cold."
"Wait here, senior. I'll go brew you a pot of my special energizing coffee right away. It's my exclusive recipe from a hundred years ago; I guarantee you'll be full of energy after drinking it!"
Chen Bo's face instantly darkened.
No, please don't torture us with culinary disasters!
"Senior, why don't you take a rest?" Chen Bo rushed forward and stopped Farusan. "You must be tired from your journey. Let me take care of you. I'll make the coffee."
Instead of brewing coffee, Chen Bo turned around and took out a ready-made cup of coffee from his storage space. The liquid was very thick and had a strong, somewhat eerie burnt smell.
This is a regular item that Chen Bo obtained from a system lottery: Himeko's Special Hand-Drip Coffee.
The system's food preservation effect is excellent; when you take it out, it's still steaming hot, just like it was freshly brewed.
After staying in the room for a while, Chen Bo handed the "biological weapon" to Farusan without changing his expression, and then turned to pour Cole a glass of warm water.
"Kids who drink coffee at night won't grow tall. You should drink this, Cole."
Ke Lai held the warm water glass, took a small sip, and nodded obediently.
Farusan accepted the cup of shiny black coffee, somewhat flattered.
This is the first time Anil has ever prepared a drink for himself. My student is so well-behaved and sensible.
With a hint of relief and anticipation, she took a small sip.
The next second, the look of relief on her face vanished.
What the heck is this?!
It was bitter and astringent, with an indescribable burnt smell. Did they add ten times the amount of ingredients?
You should dilute it with at least ten times the amount of milk to get the normal concentration.
However, looking at Chen Bo's "sincere" eyes, and considering that this was, after all, a student's heartfelt wish, how could a senior like me dampen his enthusiasm?
Farusan forced herself to keep a straight face, took another big gulp, and said in a complex tone that mixed pain and approval, "Mmm—it's very rich and flavorful."
"However, there's still a little room for improvement. Tomorrow, I'll teach you how to brew coffee."
No, Farusan didn't break down at all; even with her expression frozen, she was still encouraging herself.
Chen Bo wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.
Chen Bo suddenly felt a little regretful; he shouldn't have played such a prank on his teacher.
Back in his room, Chen Bo laid out the food that Dao Qi had packed back on the table one by one.
"Naxida, are you there? I bought some local delicacies for you in Inazuma."
In the corner of the room, the previously motionless android "Moon One" had a soft green light shining in its eyes, and Nasita had returned to the game.
"Yes, thank you, Chen Bo."
Although the doll's body did not need to eat, Nasita still controlled it, picking up a string of tricolor dumplings and tasting them in small bites.
It's soft and chewy, and very delicious.
While Nasita was eating, Chen Bo used a small printer to print out another Little Genius telephone watch.
Then, the call to the goddess was connected.
at the same time.
Inazuma Narukami Grand Shrine.
Yae no Miko had just finished a busy day and was sitting leisurely in her room, soaking her feet in a warm basin of water, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.
The little genius phone watch on my wrist suddenly started to vibrate slightly.
The divine child raised his wrist, and the screen showed an unknown number calling, but the profile picture was of Chen Bo.
The divine child clicked to connect, and Chen Bo appeared on the screen, lying on the table, with the background showing Chen Bo in Sumeru's room.
On Chen Bo's screen, the upper body of Yae no Miko was clearly displayed, with her elegant bedroom in the background.
There was a moment of awkwardness in the atmosphere.
The goddess carefully examined the room's background through the screen, confirming it wasn't Inazuma's decorating style. A smile played on her lips: "Oh? The festival just ended, and you're already back in Sumeru? That speed is something even the Tengu would have to admit defeat for."
"We're good at running away," Chen Bo laughed. "It's just that getting through thunderstorms is a bit troublesome."
Directly through the thunderstorm?
The divine child's assessment of the three's strength has risen to a new level.
She gently splashed the water with her toes and laughed, "I was planning to give you a special Inazuma local specialty after the festival. But I couldn't find you anywhere after searching for ages, what a pity."
"However, I also have your address. I'll have someone mail it to you tomorrow."
Chen Bo: "Then I'm really looking forward to the gift from the Divine Child."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries.
The divine child spoke up, "By the way, about the Doctor," Mr. Anil—or, Mr. Chen Bo—could you tell me your opinion of him?
When Chen Bo signs his name, he uses the pen name Chen Bo.
Although he inherited Anil's identity, Chen Bo also wanted to keep his own name.
Chen Bo stated bluntly, "The doctor has grand ambitions in Inazuma."
"He will bribe the Survey Envoy and the Heavenly Commander, and with their power, he will collect demonic remnants and crystallize their bone marrow in Inazuma," thus constructing the Evil Eye Factory.
"If I'm not mistaken, his next step will be to find a way to provoke a war between Umijima and the Shogunate. He'll use this to test the combat data of his Evil Eyes."
The goddess doesn't have many intelligence channels, since her main job is as the chief priest of Narukami Shrine and the editor-in-chief of Yaedo. Therefore, many undercurrents can only be detected by the goddess when they come to light.
Did that executive officer really do so much in Inazuma?
However, just verifying these messages would probably take a lot of effort.
It seems like Zaoyou won't be able to sleep for a while.
But how did the other party know?
The goddess gently stirred the warm water in the basin with her toes, splashing water that brought a touch of coolness, and lazily asked, "Did you plant spies in Inazuma?"
Faced with the Divine Child's questioning, Chen Bo shrugged: "The Doctor is my enemy in Sumeru, of course I will find a way to investigate him. Besides, I can fly, I can fly very high."
"When we were flying over Inazuma, we saw something hidden, such as the location of the Evil Eye Factory."
Yae no Miko sighed: "Since you know so much, you should also know that besides a group of weak priestesses and a ninja who is always sleepy, I don't have many other useful people under my command."
"The information you provided is so valuable that it would take me a long time to verify it. I wonder if you, a genius scholar from Sumeru, have any technological artifacts that would be convenient for investigation that I could borrow?"
Upon hearing the divine child's request, Chen Bo was overjoyed.
If the other party has a need, then there is a possibility of cooperation.
"Since Editor-in-Chief Yae is short-handed, why not outsource this task to me?" Chen Bo said casually. "I can provide all the follow-up intelligence support, and even offer some physical assistance at crucial moments," to ensure that the Doctor's plan cannot proceed smoothly.
"Outsourcing?" Yae no Miko chewed on this novel term, her smile widening. "Oh? That sounds interesting. So, what's the reward? How much Mora do you want? Let me make it clear first, my Yaedo's operating costs are quite high, and the bank account doesn't have as much savings as you might think."
Mora Chenbo also wanted it, but what Chenbo wanted even more was the Heart of God.
Therefore, Chen Bo raised one finger.
Yae no Miko raised an eyebrow: "Ten million Mora? Or—one hundred million Mora?"
"It seems you really intend to squeeze every last drop of profit out of my Yaedo this year."
Chen Bo shook his head and said slowly and deliberately, "All I want is the Heart of God of Thunder General."
