There aren't many things worth noting on the North Sea River: one is Lisa, the librarian of the Knights of Favonius, and the other is Wendy, a bard in Mondstadt.
"Lisa? She was once the most outstanding student in the Sumeru Academy in two hundred years, but now she seems to be tired of the pursuit of knowledge, so she's temporarily taking on the role of librarian. If you want to persuade Lisa to help... um..."
Qin thought about it carefully, and in her memory, there was nothing that could attract Lisa.
Lisa seemed uninterested in anything other than managing books and afternoon tea.
They might not even be interested in either of these things.
She only occasionally shows interest in exchanging her views on certain things with others.
Considering all of the above, Qin simply shook her head and didn't say anything more.
Kitakawakami is no exception to this.
Miss Lisa is ranked very low on the list.
"As for that bard, I've heard a little about him, and his poetry performance was indeed outstanding. Other than that, I don't have any other impression of him."
Qin was puzzled as to why Bei Haichuan would pay attention to an ordinary... well, perhaps a rather outstanding bard.
Hokusai was also puzzled as to why the Coral Palace on the distant island of Haigi had drawn the attention of a bard from Mondstadt.
But... how should I put it?
Although the request was quite outrageous, he had no choice but to comply.
"Abedo is the chief alchemist of the Knights and the captain of the Knights' investigation team. He is actually a very pure person who only focuses on his research. He will devote absolute enthusiasm to things he is curious about, but he will be overly indifferent to things he is not interested in. He also generally keeps a certain distance from others."
"Therefore, please forgive me if Abedo is rather cold to you later."
Qin was a little embarrassed.
Hokukai Kawami expressed his understanding.
“In our area, there are also people like them, who are passionate about the things they are curious about. It is because of their existence that we have met today. In fact, I admire such pure people, and I even want to become one myself.”
"It's clear that you are a very ambitious person. I believe your wishes will definitely come true."
"Lend your blessings."
During their conversation, they arrived at Aberdo's laboratory.
Qin glanced at the sign hanging outside the laboratory door.
"It seems we're in luck; Abedo isn't out on fieldwork or conducting any experiments."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"coming."
A flat tone came from behind the door.
Upon opening the door, a handsome young man with white hair came into view.
"Hmm? Leader Qin?" Abedo looked at Qin and the Hokukai River behind her. "Is there something you need?"
"This is Mr. Hokkaido from Inazuma. He has come to discuss collaborative research with the Knights."
"Cooperation? Research?" Abedo looked calmly at the Beihai River.
"Is such that……"
Kitakawa explained to Abedo the contents of his previous conversation with Falga and his idea of winning over Klee.
Jean's focus was mainly on Klee.
She began to consider the pros and cons of two options: giving Klee a fixed place to play with bombs under the supervision of professionals, which would also help promote Mondstadt's development, versus letting her run wild and engage in dangerous activities, and then having Klee locked up in solitary confinement.
"So that's it..."
Aberdo put his hands together and began to think.
“I have no problem with it. It’s always pleasant to exchange findings with colleagues. Besides, mass-producing those alchemical equipment would certainly benefit people’s lives. Moreover, Klee…”
Aside from academic issues, the biggest benefit Aberdo thought of was whether he could prevent Cleo from getting into more trouble.
After all, he had spent more than half of his energy cleaning up after Klee.
Abedo and Jean's thoughts involuntarily drifted to Klee.
Thinking of this, Aberdo's words began to carry a hint of enthusiasm.
“In that case, we will notify you after we have completed the relevant work,” Hokkaido said to Abedo.
"No problem, oh right."
Abedo turned and went back into the laboratory, took out a silver-gray stone, and handed it to Hokusawa.
"I heard that you use lightning as an energy source. This is a material that I accidentally synthesized in the snow mountain. It has an excellent affinity for lightning and may be of some help to you. Consider it a gift."
Chapter 122 Unique Freedom
I never expected that my visit to Abedo would bring such a pleasant surprise.
Made primarily from Starsilver ore, a specialty of the Dragonspine Mountains in Mondstadt, and supplemented with various materials such as crystal blocks, amethyst blocks, and electric crystals, it possesses an extremely strong affinity for lightning. Unfortunately, its strength is insufficient; otherwise, it would be very suitable for forging weapons for wielders of the Lightning Eye.
Admiral Abedo of the North Sea River recorded his words, intending to send this unique material back to Liyue, and then from Liyue back to Haiqi Island.
People at the Marine Science and Technology Institute will definitely be very interested in this material.
After all, their main mission was to gather suitable technologies and personnel from all over Teyvat, and materials technology was one of them, and a major one at that.
Afterwards, Hokkaido used the topic of "lightning" to discuss some technical matters with Abedo.
"Hmm... my alchemy skills may not be quite in line with your research direction."
This was Abedo's conclusion after listening to Hokukawa's explanation of their current development direction.
"My research focuses more on life, also known as bio-alchemy, which is quite different from your research direction, which is mainly based on energy and machinery. The Fontaine Academy of Sciences would probably really like your research."
"It's alright. Our institute's president, Jiang Ming, once said that technologies are often interconnected. In short, development will definitely not be a mistake. What we value more is your ability."
"Hmm...Is that so?"
Aberdo stroked his chin, pondering the question.
After that, the conversation between Hokkaido and Abedo came to an end.
After all, Hokukai Kawakami is not a professional researcher, and he even relies on letters and Beidou to learn about the latest developments on Haigi Island.
Being able to offer some reflection and explanation on the overall aspects of development direction and system, and even having a brief conversation with Abedo, is already a significant achievement for "thinking more."
If they went any further, Hokkaido would lose all contact with Abedo.
After bidding farewell to Abedo with Qin, Beihaichuan was led by Qin to the accommodations arranged for them by the Knights of Favonius.
"Regarding Klee, once she returns, if she hasn't been put in solitary confinement, I will send someone to inform you."
At the entrance of their residence, as Qin and Beihaichuan said goodbye, Qin brought up the question about Klee again.
"Secondly, I will send someone to deliver a map of Mondstadt to you later. It will mark the available land in Mondstadt, and you may choose any area as the site for your research."
"Okay, thank you for your kind help, Director Qin."
"You're too kind, it's all I should do."
Although Qin had already assumed the position of acting leader of the Knights and was quite mature in ability, she was still a teenage girl at heart, and was quite embarrassed by such praise.
After a brief farewell, Hokkaido Kawakami entered the accommodations arranged by the Knights.
"How's it going? Any progress?"
As soon as he entered, the entourage couldn't help but surround him.
“Mr. Abedo has agreed to cooperate. The Knights of Favonius do not oppose our actions and even strongly support them. The Knights of Spark are not in Mondstadt at the moment and we will have to make contact later.”
Hokusai gave a brief summary of the current situation and explained it to everyone.
He then began issuing further orders.
"You all go out and wander around, find out about Mondstadt, learn about its customs and traditions, and do some research. Don't bother me, I need to review today's progress and prepare a written report."
"Yes."
After receiving orders from Beihai Chuanshang, everyone assigned their own destinations and then departed.
Back in his room, Hokkaido began to recall the day's events.
Mondl's idea was actually very simple: technology in exchange for increased production.
Although their technology is advanced, their production methods have always been limited to the level of manual workshops, and their output can only be completed by a few people. Most of the production can only be carried out in a limited way in laboratories or workshops, which has led to a long-term shortage of output and a large number of advanced technologies cannot be implemented.
The Knights of Favonius, somehow, learned about their new production system and pinned their hopes for mass production on them.
This forms the material basis for cooperation between the two parties, and they hit it off immediately, achieving a win-win situation.
However, if they follow this plan, they will inevitably have to establish factories and power systems in Mondstadt.
After all, only in this way can the mass production needs of Mondstadt be met.
only……
Beihaichuan recalled the scene of his meeting with Falga.
Even though the Knights of Favonius do not oppose or even support cooperation with them, and even though Abel and Klee are knights of the Knights of Favonius and are under their jurisdiction, Falgar simply does not make any demands on them, and Hokkaido has to personally go and discuss these people with them individually.
He still couldn't quite understand the unique freedom of the Mondstadt people.
But could this unique freedom become an obstacle for them to open factories and develop an industrial system?
After all, factories require a large number of people to work together, and excellent discipline is a necessity.
The specific details will depend on the results of their investigation, but there is some concern in Beihai Chuan Shang at the moment.
If it does indeed become an obstacle and a suitable industrial system cannot be established in Mondstadt, then wouldn't that mean that the "mass production" pursued by the Knights of Favonius is impossible to achieve at all?
How will we handle this then?
Hokusai wrote these things down in a memo, intending to send them back to Liyue later to ask for the opinion of the senior, Yamagami Hideo.
Aside from these issues that don't yet pose a threat, it must be said that their progress in Mondstadt has been quite smooth.
The other group heading to Fontaine was not so lucky.
The Fontaine Working Group's objectives were mainly divided into three areas: the Fontaine Academy of Sciences, the Grey River, and Mello Petersburg.
