People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 407 Ying: What is this? Are you sure this is a test for people to pass? !

“Hoo—hum—”

At noon, the northern part of Longji Snow Mountain.

Above a hill near Mondstadt, a giant dragon passed by, and the sound of its flapping wings slowly came from the sky.

At first it was just a small shadow, and then the vibration gradually became louder.

Under the clouds, a huge flying dragon that seemed to block out the sun slowly descended from the sky, and its flapping wings raised up the dust and fallen leaves around it.

"."

With a look of disdain, he pulled a drunk guy off the dragon's back.

Lin Feng, who was standing on solid ground again, looked back and said goodbye to Tevarin, who had given them a ride, with real emotion:
"Thank you. You have worked hard on this journey."

"Compared to flying at full speed, it will be more physically demanding for you to fly slowly as we request."

After all, you need some time for sightseeing along the way, and you don’t plan to arrive in a blink of an eye.
Every time I took the Tevarin, it seemed to have become a fixed habit to move slowly like this.

——Of course, this slowness is relative to the speed of the complete power of wind.

No matter how slow it is, it still won't take long to cross several countries.

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. If you need anything, just come to me directly."

".Elemental dragons, Barbatos, everything about Mondstadt,
Compared to me, you have a lot more things to worry about."

He directly put the drunkard in the category of troublesome people.
The huge dragon lowered its head slightly, obviously not thinking that what it had done was of any significance.

"Okay, see you next time then."

"If I'm guessing correctly,

Perhaps it won't be long before a group of special 'adventurers' come to visit you."

"Well, as for what you need to say when they ask to see the God of Wind,
It depends on how Wendy explains it then."

He waved his hand and said goodbye to the giant dragon in front of him, looking at him with some doubt.
I had heard from the little yellow-haired boy about the route they took to see the God of Wind, which mentioned some possible preparations.

Lin Feng looked at Wendy who looked dizzy beside him, and for a moment he couldn't guess what form this drunkard would want to appear in the future.

A moment later, in Mondstadt.

For the sake of the overall image of the gods, Wendy was thrown back to his residence to avoid such a morally corrupt incident as the god of wind falling drunk on the street.

Lin Feng looked at the sky and calculated the time, and decided to wait until tomorrow to look for Albedo.

After thinking about it, there shouldn't be anything more important today.

Because he had just mentioned Little Yellow Hair, he suddenly felt like going to see how this guy was doing with his elemental power training recently:
——After all, he is an Adventer, right? He doesn't even have the strength of a stable demon god, and he just muddles through every day?
——Practice quickly to get out of the novice stage, and then even if you can help yourself with some minor tasks, it will be fine.
"."

I feel more and more that it is a bit of a waste to just leave such a big Adventer like Little Yellow Hair here.

Lin Feng made up his mind and began to try to search for their current location.

"?"

".Running Wolf Ridge?"

".I remember the trial should have been over by now, why are you going there again?"

After a quick scan, I found a little yellow-haired creature approaching the trial platform in the forest near Andrius.

Lin Feng paused slightly, and became interested in finding out what was going on.

At the same time, at Benlang Ridge.

It is not clear that someone will come to watch soon because he is free.
Having just obtained this "Multi-functional Imitation Element Amplification Device" from Albedo, Ying and Paimon are now impatient to try out their current strength.

"Click——"

The dead branches and leaves that had accumulated for a long time were crushed by the footsteps of the visitor, startling several wood rats that were moving among the grass and trees.

Because there will be a food competition in Qingquan Town later,

Xiangling, who had come here to collect food, also stopped and looked curiously at the floating octahedron in the air that was emitting a faint fluorescent light and rotating non-stop:
——That is the elemental amplification device that Mr. Albedo described as a "lucky creation".

"."

“Well, it feels amazing.”

Xiangling looked around the octahedron with great interest for several times, then said with some curiosity:
“—Is this the product of alchemy?
It seems very similar to the creative dishes I developed, which can bring a unique visual impact to people at first glance. "

"When I was in Liyue before, I saw the master chef take out some amazing tools.

But if you just look at them, they look like ordinary teapot bells."

Xiangling herself belongs to the trendy faction in Liyue Harbor. Compared with the Liyue props with maximum concealment, she has a special liking for this unique style.

"Hey, that's amazing.
After all, it is made of super-a lot of materials!
If we are not stronger, then we will be at a loss!"

Thinking back to when Albedo handed this thing to them, he said that in order to gather the seven elements, he also tried his best to find as many materials as possible from the boss monsters.

Paimeng couldn't help feeling distressed just thinking about the material cost of this thing.

"Phew, okay!"

"——Isn't this place far enough away from the area where the Mond people are active?

I think you can test the effect of this thing before challenging Andrius!"

Selectively shift your thinking from cost to other aspects.

Paimon looked at the open space that was cleared by the golden king beast last time and felt that this was the best testing site.

".Can."

"Anyway, the only two elements that can be used right now are rock and wind.
In addition to getting familiar with the operation method, it is also a good opportunity to compare the impact of different filling materials on the degree of amplification. "

She did come here with the idea of ​​testing something. After hearing Paimon's suggestion, Ying blinked her amber eyes and finally stopped suppressing her curiosity that was about to explode.

"Om-"

Upon receiving the command, the silver-white metal device, which seemed to have life, quickly transformed.
In front of Ying and Paimeng's eyes, the surrounding protective armor plates gradually shrank into an eggshell-shaped ring.
I put the oval core material which is said to be mined from "Wuxiang Rock" on it out of curiosity.

As soon as his hand left, Ying was surprised to find that some plant-like roots were gradually emerging from the metal object in front of him.

???

Suddenly I understood why the alchemist said that he was best at life alchemy.

Ying thought about how this thing worked, and for the time being she had some expectations for what she saw:

——Using vitality to establish a connection between herself and the device, making her and the device become one.
The device then fuses the material it is filled with, temporarily mimicking an incomplete elemental life that focuses on energy absorption and purification.
According to the strength of the filling material, it provides the user with a bonus in terms of element "quantity" and "quality".

A humming sound was heard, the material was initially filled, and the device was officially started.
Facing everyone's gaze, the previously colorless octahedron quickly turned into the golden brown color of the rock element itself.

The moment the transformation was completed, Ying, who had not had high expectations for it, paused.
He was full of questions when he found that a huge element far beyond his expectations had merged into his body.

!!!

There was no time to be shocked by this unique experience of a poor man suddenly becoming rich.
Previously, the total amount of elemental power was extremely low, and the little yellow-haired boy was reluctant to attack except for strengthening. Now he was in high spirits.
He silently recited in his mind, and instinctively released the rock element skill that he had first mastered:
"boom--"

The rock elements that gathered together broke out of the ground and formed a series of unstable rock element polymers on the ground at an extremely fast speed.

Unlike the small rocks or spikes that were only a person tall and could only serve as a barrier,

What appeared in front of Ying's eyes at this moment was a crystal jungle that was several meters high and made people feel palpitating just by looking at it!

？ ！！

Paimon, who knew the level of the fluorescent elemental power best and even thought that this guy was hopeless, was dumbfounded.

They never expected that this close combat expert of theirs could also unleash this kind of large-scale attack that usually only appears when monsters attack them.

".No way? So this is the only amount of elements a leader-level monster can mobilize?
That was before you."

I feel like my common sense about element quantities has been refreshed.
While Paimon was surprised, he also inexplicably felt a sense of respect for the "frugal" blonde girl in front of him.

".So, you asked me if there are more difficult trials? And the higher the difficulty, the better?"

".this"

In the center of Benlang Ridge, the trial site,

Andrius, who had just woken up, twitched his ears and paused after hearing this request.
Subconsciously, he turned back to take a look at the dragon-shaped mark that was now hidden on the wall:

——Yes, there is, but the power gap between them is really too high.

——As a projection mark that shares part of His Majesty's power,
Even if it is only part of the power of the two elements of ice and wind, at this point in time
".Are you sure? Do you really want the difficulty to be as high as possible?"

Recalling what the man who had stayed behind to take the trial said, Andrius couldn't understand how anyone could pass it.

But he also felt that he did not have the right to forcibly reject a challenger.

"——Hehe, of course!"

"——After making up for his shortcomings, Ying is now super strong!"

"If we were to ask Paimon to rate us, Ying's score now would be more than three times better than the last time we took on the challenge!"

Hands on hips, head held high,
The increase in the rock attribute is so strong. A certain white-haired ball thought of a stronger element bonus that had not been tested yet, and felt that the current Ying was already invincible:
——According to Albedo, the strength of the amplification is related to the material used for filling.
And if the bonus is obtained by using demon materials, the elemental strength can even be close to those executives who share the power of gods!

Although I won the trial with Onigiri last time, since it is a "trial" there is a chance of passing it.
Even if Ying takes it a little more seriously this time, he will definitely be able to win the final reward of the challenge!
fluorescent:"."

Is this too absolute? Why do I have a bad feeling?

".Okay, if you insist."

".According to His Majesty, the projection he left behind is somewhat similar to Nata's "Great Spiritual Incarnation", except that the object of imitation is himself."

"If the challenger can perform well, he may be able to receive a gift that completely changes his destiny."

There was no word "pass" in his words at all. Andrius looked at the blonde girl in front of him with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

"——Come on, don't worry about getting hurt, and take the tools around you.
Since you want to witness a real trial, I naturally need to respect your courage."

Stand up from where you are, walk to the wall,
Andrius led the blonde girl beside him and asked her to put all the battle tools beside her.

Then it activated something it never thought anyone would try:
——As a test specially reserved for the "God", even it couldn't challenge the strength of the previous full-strength activation, not to mention that it seems to have become much stronger now.
"Om-"

The wind-attribute material previously obtained from Andrius was embedded into the device, and the hollow octahedron, which had reached its upper limit of amplification, shone with unprecedented brilliance.

Activation completed, Ying, who entered alone as a challenger, paused slightly.
As the aura of the wind element was greatly enhanced, a few somewhat illusory wings even slowly emerged behind him.

"."

I looked back with some nostalgia at the imitation I had created using the wind element.

Ying also gained some confidence in this challenge:
——With this level of elemental power, she can now fly freely in the sky.

No matter what form the challenge takes, enhanced mobility will always provide many additional conveniences.

"Huh, let me see what this challenge is all about.

Since Andrius respects me so much, I must be more careful in the future."

He temporarily folded his wings and walked towards the trial area ahead with extreme caution.

"."

"Hmm? When did the challenge start?"

White ice crystals rose from under her feet, freezing the girl's unfinished words.
After finally reaching the edge of the ring, I only caught a glimpse of the giant dragon wearing a crown and surrounded by ice and wind elements.
Before Ying, who was ready to fight, could see the details of his opponent,

The dragon, sensing the challenger's arrival, opened its eyes.

The next second, her body froze, and she withdrew from the trial with a blurry vision.

???

".Did I fail the challenge?"

The moment they met, Ying, who was turned into an ice sculpture by some unknown halo effect, blinked, as if she had not yet recovered from the situation just now.

After a moment, thinking of the pressure that was even more terrifying than facing the ruling party,

Her face, which had just swelled slightly due to the increase in strength, froze. She felt as if the world was against her:
“——Are all of Nata’s great spiritual manifestations really this strong?
——Who has passed through all these years?”

He sighed deeply, and began to wonder if his bad luck was because Paimon beside him kept raising the flag like crazy.

Make sure a trip in and out will not cause any real harm other than a slight blow to your self-esteem.

She looked at a certain white-haired ball floating towards her, and there was a hint of danger in her eyes.

"——Huh? Ying, you're so fast!!"

"——Let me tell you, no matter how difficult the challenge is, I will send you to take on it."

"Well!!!"

Before he could finish his words, his cape was grabbed from behind.

I feel like if Paimon keeps expanding like this, it will sooner or later have a catastrophe.
Ying pushed with both hands and decisively decided to let her guide try the highest difficulty challenge she required.
