Anyway, no matter what, it’s good to be able to research something.

Moreover, during academic exchanges, you may be able to meet your old friends again.

I thought I would never see them again after they left the Academy of Sciences and Fontainebleau, but I didn't expect that there would be a way to save the country in a roundabout way, and we still have the opportunity to sit down and talk.

Kaigi Island is working hard to promote cooperation with official agencies of various countries with the idea of ​​obtaining official certification.

This thing is difficult to make well, but it is really not complicated to make. Once the theory is explained, the rest depends on the engineering level, especially for a research institute like Fontainebleau Science Institute with a very high level of mechanical design attainments.

It is hard to say whether the theory can be pointed out.

Therefore, they contact these official agencies in advance and use means such as "patents" to protect their own rights and interests and occupy the market at the same time.

The Liyue people might be able to study it, figure out the principles, and make it themselves, but there is a contract between them and the Liyue people.

Wanting to tear up the contract publicly is tantamount to the Liyue people destroying their own Great Wall. The Seven Stars are not stupid enough to do this, unless they go too far and touch the bottom line of the Seven Stars.

The Fontaine people are likely to be able to research it, but they also have an open cooperative licensing relationship with them.

There may be competition between the two sides, but on this basis, relying on the leading knowledge of Jiang Ming, a time traveler, it is still possible to point out the direction in the application field.

Fontaine Science Academy will gain a clear research direction, achieve faster R&D speed, more projects, especially projects that can generate economic benefits, and reduce numerous trial and error costs.

This was enough for the Fontainebleau Sciences Institute to maintain their collaborative research relationship.

In short, people from all parties have various thoughts and maintain such a harmonious situation, but the thoughts of all parties are satisfied.

There is no fundamental conflict of interest. Now everyone's interests can be satisfied through cooperation, so aren't we all friends?

Wouldn't this make you have more friends and fewer enemies?

That's exactly how it is done.

As Fontaine was getting back on track, in Mondstadt, after hearing about the application of Liyue's power system, the curious librarian Lisa took the initiative to meet with Bei Hai Kawakami.

Lisa knew that Kitami Kawakami was a diplomat and did not have a deep understanding of technical matters, so she did not go into much detail, but only talked about macro-level things such as application prospects.

As the official representative there, Kitami Kawakami must have known more information than she learned from the newspapers.

In fact, Beihai Kawakami did not disappoint Lisa's expectations. In addition to some undisclosed information, he also had Beihai Kawakami's own insights on the application prospects and development of this system.

Of course, this is mainly because Lisa is on the list, so Bei Haichuan said so much.

Lisa was very happy. It is always relaxing and pleasant to talk to smart people.

At least the other person will not be immersed in his own little world, not thinking about what others are saying but repeating his own logic endlessly.

Gradually, their topics were no longer limited to the power system, but also included many other topics.

Among them, as mentioned by Kitami Kawakami, they were looking for a dark brown, viscous, oily liquid substance that had a bad smell and could burn.

Lisa frowned slightly.

Why does it always feel a little familiar?

Had she seen similar substances in the desert when she was studying abroad at the Institute of Religious Affairs?

"Why don't you go to the Xumi Desert and take a look? I'll mark a spot for you."

Chapter 130: Red King Technology, Shocking

The working group in Xumi was divided into two groups, which was completely different from the situation in Mondstadt or Fontaine.

Because they are responsible for two completely different directions: Sumeru Rainforest and Sumeru Desert.

One can almost view Xumi as two kingdoms.

On one side is the rainforest with a strong academic atmosphere where everyone pursues knowledge; on the other side is the desert with a harsh environment, discrimination and oppression, where survival is difficult and where social Darwinism prevails where the strong prey on the weak.

Although both belong to Xumi, in these two completely different and somewhat extreme environments, the two sides are completely two completely different and somewhat extreme countries.

Moreover, it can be said that they do not interfere with each other.

Although the House of Faith nominally has sovereignty over the desert and can take necessary actions when necessary, such as when scholars of the House of Faith are attacked or their goods are robbed, in most cases, the people of the House of Faith sneer at the desert and ignore it.

The desert is like a place of exile, where it almost forms an independent system, although this system is completely based on the law of the jungle.

But the very strange thing is that they have basically no combat power, their high-tech is mostly paper PPTs and rarely mass-produced, their gods are weak and offline (from the perspective of the Xumi people), and the Order House, which outsources national defense, exploits and oppresses the desert people, who are mainly mercenaries.

They control water and food sources, and completely deprive the desert people of their right to education.

And even under such circumstances, the desert has not resisted.

Not only was there no resistance, but even the various tribes and mercenary groups in the desert were busy expelling each other from the Sand Clan and the Red King Clan, and they were almost beating their brains out.

All his energy was directed at his own forehead.

If they had been more united and had directly attacked the Church of the Lords, or even if they had run to a deserted place in the rainforest and ruled as king, they would not have ended up like this.

Of course, it was not like this from the beginning, but gradually evolved into its current deformed appearance in the five hundred years after the disaster.

The only thing left is a complete cut off of water and food, which would plunge the desert people into the lowest point of death.

According to the general law of historical development, if there is no one or other leader to improve the living environment of the desert and eliminate discrimination and injustice, then as time goes by, the desert will sooner or later be forced to unite and launch a revengeful resistance against the rainforest.

This is the inevitability of history.

As for the outcome, it is hard to say what will happen to the Xumi people in the rain forest. The Order of the Lords may have some trump cards, but the desert people also have the remains of the Red King.

Although the Red King has passed away, his steel still remains.

However, this is Xumi's internal affairs after all, and Haiji Island, which is currently preoccupied with its own affairs, cannot intervene.

The problems they face are much bigger than the desert.

At least there are no Thunder Generals in the desert.

They should give priority to solving their own development problems.

This brings us to two completely different working groups.

One group is diplomats; the other group is the military.

One group entered the Xumi Rain Forest through official channels and contacted the Institute of Teachings; the other group entered the Xumi Desert through "secret" channels.

For the rainforest, the strategy adopted is mainly based on academic exchanges.

After all, in the rainforest, academics are respected and knowledge is pursued. The best way to get what you want is to exchange knowledge on an equal basis.

The second is Mora. After all, it is not easy for an agricultural country like the House of Lords to support so much high-tech research and not transform it. Everyone has limited money in their pockets.

However, the great sage Azar of the House of the Decrees seemed to have little interest in them. He sent them away after just a few words.

It was only after the changes in Liyue became known in Teyvat that things started to change. At least they started talking about serious matters with them.

But after listening to their description of the power system, Hazard changed his attitude.

There was still no sign of importance in his words, and there was even a hint of disdain.

This face became comparable to Liyue's magic tricks.

This left the working group scratching their heads.

They followed Liyue personally, and the Liyue Seven Stars took it very seriously.

I heard that colleagues from Mond and Fontaine were also highly valued.

These countries are no worse than Xumi, especially the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, which is a research institution as famous as the Academy of the Order of the Church. Why is the Academy of the Order of the Church so arrogant?

The problem is that you are so dismissive, but your achievements are nothing other than papers.

In this light, what kind of thing can catch the eye of this great sage?

It's hard for them to tell.

However, this attitude made the Rainforest working group unanimously agree that the focus should be placed on the various mentors under the House of the Decree, rather than the Great Sage Azar.

They did just that. When the discussions with Azar made no progress, they began to contact various mentors in the Academy of the Order, looking for those who were interested in taking on the project or starting a collaboration. They also checked the technology catalog and, with the help of the Sumeru people who had void terminals, looked for research that might be helpful to them.

For the small army that went to the desert, their main task was archaeology.

Chiwang technology is shocking!

At this stage, there is no hope of discovering anything in the desert. After all, they have a team of soldiers, and they didn't bring any scientists or engineers with them.

The nature of their actions also made it inconvenient for them to seek assistance from scholars of the House of the Decrees.

Therefore, their task is only to collect some of the remaining Red King technologies and send them out, first to Liyue, and then distribute them depending on the situation.

Considering that they were unfamiliar with the environment and did not know the combat effectiveness of the mechanical creations in the Red King Ruins, they chose to hire locals, the Gilded Brigade, as helpers.

Although they also carried weapons, these weapons were not used to deal with the Red King's technology, but were reserved for dealing with the Gilded Brigade.

After all, in the desert environment, you have to be very careful.

“Hey—”

With a roar, the mercenaries of the Gilded Brigade smashed an energy construct in the sand.

The squad leader of the leading group of soldiers looked at the energy construct with some distress.

He walked up to the leader of the Gilded Brigade and said, "Can't you think of a way to keep a complete one for us? We would rather get a complete energy construct."

"..."

The leader of the Gilded Brigade responded with only silence.

"In fact, if we delay too long, this machine monster will enter an 'invisible' state, and it will be very troublesome to fight it at that time."

Gerard, the deputy commander of this Gilded Brigade, took the initiative to step forward to explain.

The squad leader looked at Gerard's expression, and the two looked at each other briefly, and it was clear at a glance.

"We can add money."

Gerard looked back at the leader and saw him nod. He then replied, "No problem."

Monitor: "..."

The ability to use money is useful.

"Come to think of it, you are not the first group of people who want to obtain the relic machinery. Can you tell me what exactly you need?"

Gerrard seemed very talkative.

The monitor thought for a moment.

Then, he took out their task list and handed it to Gerrard.

Gerard took the task list and started looking through it.

The squad leader looked at him in surprise.

"Do you know the words?"

"I am a humble person, but by chance I went to Fontaine for a while and found an opportunity to learn something."

The group continued to move deeper into the desert while talking.

Chapter 131 A Naive Ideal

"Fontaine is nice, but the desert is my hometown after all!"

Faced with the question raised by the squad leader, "You can recognize words, can speak so many great truths, are good at learning, and can be considered an educated person, why didn't you stay in Fontaine and come back to the desert?" Gerard gave his own answer.

"I've seen a wider world, so I don't think it should be like this here." Gerrard said to himself.

"People often say that the Gilded Brigade in the desert is a ruthless bunch of people who commit all kinds of evil. In the eyes of the scholars in the rain forest, we are good for nothing except fighting. We are the scum of this world. But if we had a choice, how many people would want to live such a life?"

"No one is born evil, and no one is born to live in such a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. We just have no choice. Even though we are in the same Gilded Brigade, there are also the Thirty-Man Brigade, right? Look at them in the rainforest, don't they have as many sins as us? So, people, after all, follow the environment."

"The harsh environment and scarce resources of the desert have made the desert people cruel, but it was not originally like this. In the era under the leadership of the Red King, the desert also had a glorious civilization. That was the golden age of the desert. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a paradise on earth. The desert people at that time were no different from the rainforest people today."

The squad leader looked back at him in surprise again.

"You actually know the history of the desert?"

Studying history is also part of education, which is strictly prohibited by the House of Edicts.

"I don't know. I just saw some research conclusions of the Fontaine Academy of Sciences when I was in Fontaine. They believe that the Red King's technology is very advanced. The desert people in the Red King's era may have been able to achieve production with the power of machinery. Everyone enjoys relatively sufficient resources and no longer needs to live like they do now. Isn't this a paradise on earth?"

The monitor fell silent.
