The darkest day of Mona's life had arrived.
Those things are all my wealth! They are more valuable than my life!
If I lose them all, my career as an astrologer will be over!
Just when Mona was going crazy, she suddenly found a note stuck on the wall.
It seems to have been left by a thief.
There was a line of words written on the note: Poor bastard, bring one million Moras to the exchange to redeem your things, otherwise I will sell them to the rag collector - left by Mondstadt Thief.
What a shame! What a shame!
Mona's breasts grew a cup size bigger from anger.
What made her most angry was not that the thief stole things and left a taunting note.
But those priceless treasures were only worth one million Mora in the eyes of the thief!
The most hateful thing is that I can't even afford one million Moras to redeem those things!!!
"Absolutely! No! Forgiveness!"
Mona lost her temper.
She had to get those things back no matter what.
Ordinary props can be bought again if they are lost, but those things are one-of-a-kind pieces. They cost a huge price and took a lot of effort to get them. There is only one of their kind in the world!
But what to do if you have no money?
The first person Mona thought of was the rich woman Ali.
Although it is a bit awkward to ask friends for a loan...but I have no relatives or friends in Mondstadt, and the only one who can come up with one million Mora in a short time is probably Ali.
Mona gritted her teeth and made up her mind to go to Ali to borrow money.
When she told Ali about her experience, she didn't expect that Ali would lend her the money without saying a word and without charging any interest.
Mona burst into tears.
Is this the power of friendship? It's so touching!
A friend in need is a friend indeed! How blessed it is to have a friend who can help you in the most difficult times!
As for how the danger came about, let’s not discuss that for now.
Now that Mona had the money, she rushed to the Mond Exchange to inquire about the whereabouts of the divination tools, but was told that the items had been sold to a merchant in Xumi and had just been shipped away.
The routine is one ring after another, and Mona has been completely trapped in it.
Helplessly, she had to buy a boat ticket to Xumi and chase after him.
Under a series of calculations by Ali and Zoe, Mona embarked on the journey to Xumi without knowing the reason.
Unexpectedly, she met Mond's librarian Lisa on the ship.
Because of her good relationship with Kelly, Lisa has met Mona several times.
Lisa has always heard that this astrologer's divinations are very effective, and has long wanted to give it a try.
"Isn't this Mona? Why are you on the ship to Xumi? You are not a student of the Teaching Academy, right?"
"Huh? It's Lisa, the Knights' teacher. What a coincidence."
Mona and Lisa told each other why they wanted to go to Xumi.
Lisa frowned. "I never thought that someone in Mondstadt would dare to break into a house and steal in broad daylight. How daring! Don't worry, our Knights will definitely help you find your lost things. If we can't find them, Captain Jean will compensate you."
"Thank you so much. Those things are really important to me and I must get them back. By the way, Teacher Lisa, what are you going to do in Xumi?" Mona asked.
Lisa looked worried, "You probably don't know what happened to Xumi yet, right?"
Mona shook her head.
She had heard of Xumi's most famous temple, and she had thought that she could go there when she became financially independent.
But judging from Lisa's appearance, it seemed that something bad had happened to Xumi.
"The Fatui infiltrated the Xumi Order House and attempted a coup. As a result, the Little Auspicious Grass King fell, and a new god, the Mushroom King, was born in Xumi. At the same time, the Order House also suffered an unprecedented blow. The elites of five of the six major sects died in this disaster, causing the level of the Order House to regress directly by three hundred years."
"I was once a student at the Church of God. I was very upset when I received the letter from my mentor. My mentor asked me to return to the Church of God to serve as a mentor for a period of time. I had no reason to refuse."
Upon hearing such sad news, Mona's face turned heavy. "Oh my god, this is so sad... The Order of the Lords has regressed three hundred years... This is a huge blow to Xumi, no, to the entire Teyvat."
"Yeah..." Lisa sighed and looked at Mona. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind. She said, "I remember that your astrology seems to be very superb. Would you like to consider becoming a mentor at the Jiaoling Academy? The Minglun School of the Jiaoling Academy specializes in astronomy and astrology."
"Ah? Me?" Mona was surprised.
I never thought about developing in this direction.
Besides, do I really have the ability to be a mentor?
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Lisa was determined to bring Mona on board. She keenly noticed the torn stockings on Mona's legs and quickly organized her words.
"The treatment provided by the Institute of Teaching and Learning is quite generous. Not only do they have their own houses, but they also don't have to pay for food and drink. They can also apply for their own laboratories, and all kinds of experimental equipment can be reimbursed at public expense. These were the treatments I received at that time. Now the Institute of Teaching and Learning is in urgent need of people, and the treatment will only be better if you go there."
"Reimburse...reimburse?" Mona's eyes lit up.
Oh my God! What a hard life I had lived!
I have to be this mentor.
You know, Mondstadt is a good place. I have good friends there. Although I often go hungry, I live a happy life every day. Sometimes it is difficult to make a decision. After many days and nights of thinking, I decided to bring my talent to the Order. I can't wait to put on the clothes of a mentor.
Seeing Mona's reaction, Lisa knew that the matter was basically settled.
As long as you help her find the stolen things, she will definitely stay in the Ordinance House as a tutor.
I didn't expect that I could catch a cow or horse for the school on the way back to school. I think I have lived up to the training of the Educational Institute.
Lisa walked to the bow alone, looked in the direction of Xumi, and the corners of her mouth gradually sank.
This time she chose to return to Xumi not only to repay her teacher, but also for another purpose.
That is to investigate the changes in the earth veins.
In recent times, the direction of the earth veins has changed.
The ground veins used to flow in the same direction in a very regular manner, but Lisa observed it several times some time ago and found that the Mond ground veins not only no longer flowed in the previous direction, but had become free flowing.
This is extremely abnormal.
Although it did not cause monsters to gather, all abnormal things need a reasonable explanation.
The time when the earth veins became abnormal was almost the same as the time when Xumi was in turmoil, so Lisa guessed that this incident must be related to the turmoil in Xumi.
"Alas~ I don't know how the little cutie is doing now. I hope this matter has nothing to do with him."
At first, when Lisa heard that the little cutie had died in Liyue, she found it hard to accept it for a while. She was even affected by her emotions and took her anger out on Albedo. Fortunately, she controlled herself in the end.
Later, she heard rumors about Inazuma and realized that the little cutie must not be dead.
Due to the limited information from Inazuma, Lisa had no idea what exactly happened.
However, judging from the behavior of that troublemaker, he is most likely involved in the Xumi incident.
If you think about it from another perspective, you might be able to see the little cutie again soon.
Xumi Chapter: Chapter 116: Dragon King Apep
Xumi, Teaching Order.
Recently, Lu Sheng has been spending a lot of time in the secret book room of the Institute of Religious Affairs, looking up information.
In the history that was deliberately modified and buried by the Tree King, there seems to be some special secret hidden.
That was the truth that the Tree King would rather die than reveal.
Lu Sheng felt that there were not many things that could scare the Tree King so much, and the abyss was one of them.
He used his divine power to search through thousands of classics, and after several days, he actually found some clues.
An ancient book from the Chisha Dynasty records what happened during the period before King Chi's death.
As described above, at the end of his reign, the Red King had become extremely insane, and he had no choice but to ask the Tree King for help. But before going to Xumi, he first went to the Thousand Valleys Desert to look for an ancient being.
Through the testimony of other ancient books, it is enough to know that this ancient existence is one of the elemental dragon kings suppressed by the law of nature, the grass dragon Apep.
Interestingly, after visiting Xumi, King Chi did not return to his dynasty, but went to Qianhe Sandland again, and this time, he never came back.
The people of the Red King held a funeral for him according to his will, and brought the fake coffin and the unfinished Aru into the pyramid.
Lu Sheng was wondering if there was a possibility that the Red King left his forbidden knowledge to Apep.
You should know that the seven elemental dragon kings and the gods are mortal enemies.
Justice came to Teyvat and drove the Dragon Kings out of power, creating humans and gods. The Dragon Kings could only watch as their former homes and kingdoms became the happy paradise of others.
Nibelung, the king of all dragons, rebelled. He failed the first time. The second time, he returned with dark power and almost broke Teyvat apart, but he still failed.
From that moment on, the indigenous dragon clan no longer had any hope of turning the tables.
Most of them died, and the rest, barely surviving, hid.
As a member of the Sky Island, the Red King found the hiding grass dragon, and there should have been a fierce battle between the two, but there is no record of this in ancient books.
This shows that there was no war between them.
Since he's not going there to fight, he must have other intentions.
The Red King might have been afraid that after his death, Apep, a dragon, would harm the humans in the desert, so he went to negotiate.
Since it is a negotiation, there must be bargaining chips.
It is very intriguing that after searching for the Tree King, the Red King returned to where Apep was.
Perhaps the only thing about him that Apep could appreciate was the forbidden knowledge.
At this point in the reasoning, there is no more evidence to continue.
If you want to know the truth, you must go to Qianhe Sandland to meet the ancient Dragon King in person.
Lu Sheng measured the fighting power of both sides.
According to common sense, the combat power of a single elemental dragon king exceeds that of a demon god.
He has now inherited the authority of the Grass God and possesses two gods' hearts. His strength has surpassed that of the Demon God.
Even if it really happens, there will be no loss.
Besides, I can drive a Gundam.
Just leave.
A moment later, Lu Sheng merged with the hundred-meter-tall divine body, activated the stealth module, and flew away from Xumi City.
Qianhe Sandland is very easy to find. You can see a place in the sky where sandstorms blow all year round. That's it.
boom!
The huge body fell heavily, crushing the already fragile sandstone and causing a large dent.
The shape of the Thousand Valleys Sand Land is somewhat similar to that of the Layered Rock Abyss. Both are huge vortex-shaped rings that are concave inward, but the scope here is twice as large as that of the Layered Rock Abyss.
The Layered Rock Abyss was formed by the fight between the Emperor and Ruo Tuo, and no one knows how the similar landform of the Thousand Valleys Sand Land came about.
Looking around, the place is filled with yellow sand and looks desolate and miserable.
It's hard to imagine that this is where a dragon king lives.
Look at the Water Dragon King next door. He lives in a luxurious office of several hundred square meters, wears gorgeous clothes, tastes fine wine from a silver cup, and holds the legal power of a country.
All I can say is that the Water Dragon King is not a person you can get along with.
His former fellow tribesmen had fallen into such a state, but he didn't even bother to lend a helping hand.
Poor Grass Dragon King, he fell from being a local overlord to being curled up in the sand like an earthworm, living a life in fear every day.
Although it is the pinnacle of grass elemental creatures, there is not a single bit of green to be found where it lives.
It's really sad.
Lu Sheng punched the ground, and the resonance of divine power, accompanied by shock waves, penetrated the surface and reached deep into the earth's core.
