The sudden announcement of this event will undoubtedly give rise to even more thoughts among the people of Mondstadt, who are already under the influence of the Dragon Plague.

For example, the Knights are incompetent, derelict in their duties, and arrogant. They can't solve the dragon calamity and are now unwilling to handle even small matters.

There are always some people who simply won't put themselves in the shoes of the Knights.

It's as if, in their eyes, the Knights' work is their duty, and it's only natural to do it well. But if they do something wrong, it's considered dereliction of duty, and they'll make a huge fuss and rally thousands of people to criticize them.

Not to mention, due to the long-term impact of the Dragon Plague, the Knights' reputation among the people of Mondstadt has now plummeted.

Su Chen didn't care about what Qin was thinking about.

He just complained, but he couldn't do anything about it.

It's unreasonable to make demands of others instead.

"Could you two please keep an eye on this for me?"

Su Chen handed the fishing rod and the wooden bucket to the knight guarding the gate.

"Don't worry, Mr. Su Chen!"

The two knights performed the ceremony with impeccable etiquette, as if declaring that they would protect each other with their lives.

Su Chen thought to himself that it didn't need to be so grand.

Just as I turned around, a mechanical voice suddenly rang out.

Chapter 2 Simulation Begins, Sword Saint Template

Seeing the system notification that popped up, Su Chen showed no surprise.

After all, based on the cooldown time for each simulation, today is exactly one month after the last simulation.

Like most transmigrators, Su Chen also had his own cheat codes after arriving in Teyvat.

Character simulator.

It allows Su Chen to unlock different character templates and obtain rewards through complete simulation.

Initially, Su Chen simulated a scholar, studying at the Sumeru Academy, and eventually obtained the title of sage.

The second time was with a chef. Su Chen, who had little interest in cooking, barely managed to complete the simulation.

The third is a merchant, born in Liyue. He achieved quite good simulation results by relying on his business acumen from his previous life, and eventually created a powerful merchant guild in Liyue.

The fourth was the adventurer, but unfortunately, he got off to a bad start and was killed by monsters in some ruins.

Rewards will be given based on the simulation evaluation after the simulation is completed.

My first performance was good, and I unlocked the Purple Sage template.

In other words, according to the assessment of the Academy of Teachings, Su Chen's current knowledge is comparable to that of a sage.

The third time was also good, as it gave him a strong business talent and unique vision in reality.

The second and fourth times were so-so, and the rewards were also so-so.

According to the system introduction, there are a total of five templates and talent level divisions.

White represents the level of ordinary people, blue represents the level of elites, purple represents the pinnacle of humanity, and gold represents the level of gods.

Above that is red. Su Chen is not quite sure what level the red one is. Perhaps it is also a demon god. After all, there are different levels among demon gods.

For example, the difference between Morax and Heureia becomes apparent, doesn't it?

Perhaps even red has reached the level of divine law.

Besides that, what Su Chen was more concerned about was his inherent talent.

Dark Will.

So far, he hasn't felt much.

However, upon closer examination, Su Chen realized that his mindset had indeed changed considerably compared to when he first transmigrated.

Also.

The results of the simulation can not only grant abilities, but also influence reality.

such as.

The sage template he obtained was acquired from the Institute of the Order in recent years. If he were to inquire at the Institute of the Order now, he would most likely hear a scholar mention the disappearance of that mysterious young sage.

Su Chen: That's right, it is I.

[Do you want to start simulation? ]

"no."

Su Chen calmly closed the simulation interface.

Once in the simulation, one loses consciousness in reality, but this process is very short. Su Chen simulated it three times, each time falling asleep at night and waking up before dawn.

"I remember that Dawn Winery sent a batch of supplies a while ago. Have they all been used up?"

Su Chen asked as he walked.

Qin walked towards him, and the two walked side by side across the bridge outside the city gate.

"We've almost used it all up, and the situation is very tense in several nearby villages," Qin sighed.

The Dragon Plague lasted for half a year, which greatly depleted Mondstadt's national strength.

Over the past few months, Su Chen has gained a basic understanding of Mondstadt's situation.

The entire country relies on agriculture and brewing industries, and its livelihood depends on the climate and land environment.

However, since the Dragon Plague broke out, the ley lines in Mondstadt have been in chaos, and monsters have been rampaging.

Ordinary people have to be extremely careful, let alone farm.

This situation lasted for six months, and it was not much better than Inazuma's isolationist policy.

“Actually, if we had handled things well from the beginning, this situation wouldn’t have happened.” Su Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. “We should be prepared for danger in times of peace. The Mondstadt people are just too unaware of potential security risks and rely too much on the Knights Order. There are usually no problems, at most the Knights Order will be a little tired, but once a major event occurs, it will be like the last straw that breaks the camel’s back. How long can the Knights Order hold on? The first one to fall might be you, the captain.”

“Agent,” Qin added.

After a moment of silence, she raised her head, a hint of confusion appearing in her azure eyes.

"Then tell me... what should I do?"

"Let's just do it this way," Su Chen laughed. "I was just grumbling. It's not that easy to really change things."

Qin's lips twitched: "You're quick to dismiss me. I only asked you for advice, not for responsibility."

"Haha~ What I mean is... well, maybe things will turn around soon."

...

Qingquan Town.

After making contact with the Knights of Favonius guarding the town, Su Chen took a walk around the town to get a general idea of ​​the situation.

Then he took out a small, sophisticated instrument from his backpack.

"How is it?" Qin leaned closer, staring at the instrument panel in Su Chen's hand.

A faint fragrance wafted into my nose, like the sweet scent of dandelion.

Su Chen fiddled with the equipment and chuckled, "Don't worry, the monsters aren't coming this way."

"How was that determined?"

One of the knight squad leaders was a little skeptical. "Yesterday, I was chased by those Hilichurls all the way. My companions even saw three waves of Hilichurls appear nearby. It's not a joke!"

Su Chen calmly said, "The appearance of monsters does not mean they will attack the town. Hilichurls rarely attack villages and towns on their own initiative; this has always been the rule. The reason these Hilichurls are appearing near the village is because of the presence of a force that affects the flow of the ley lines."

As he spoke, he pointed to the readings on the instrument in his hand, which indicated an abnormality in the earth's energy circulation.

"Generally speaking, monsters have relatively low intelligence and many act on instinct, which is why the disorder of the ley lines affects them... Well, it's too complicated to explain. Just lead your people along that path and be careful; you should be able to find something."

The squad leader glanced at the regimental commander.

Qin nodded to him: "Go ahead, be careful."

Since the commander had given the order, the squad leader immediately led his men in the direction Su Chen had pointed out.

"Do you know what caused this?" Based on Qin's understanding of Su Chen, the fact that he hadn't specifically reminded her about safety matters meant that there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Judging from the waveform of the energy flow, there should be a stagnant area of ​​ley line energy over there. It won't be a big problem in the short term, but in the long run, it will attract a large number of monsters and create a safety hazard."

Su Chen shrugged. "Once they come back from their investigation and get detailed data, you can come up with a solution. Don't count on me for this. To eliminate the ley line stagnation, we need to start with elemental forces. I suggest asking Lisa...Miss Lisa for help."

Having the Sage template makes studying this kind of thing a breeze.
