I'm a male god in Liyue

Page 657

The item I bought the most was Xia Ci.

She had a great time negotiating the price after going around in circles.

Everyone paid and put their items into their spatial rings, which was convenient.

However, the girl who had been following behind and watching was a little surprised.

This group of people actually all have items in their spatial storage!

Even I, a dignified princess convicted of a crime, don't have that!

It was almost noon when we left Mond Department Store.

it's time for lunch.

Right across from Mond Department Store is the Deer Hunter restaurant.

Everyone went into the restaurant, ordered the signature cold meat platter, and thought it was alright.

Since Gan Yu doesn't eat meat, and the Deer Hunter is a restaurant that specializes in meat products, the group later went to another restaurant in Mondstadt for a meal, which was also a good experience.

As they walked out of the restaurant, Xia Lin suddenly grabbed Xia Zhi's sleeve and called out, "Dad!"

Xia Zhi lowered her head and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Charlene pointed in that direction, looking somewhat lost, and said, "That person... he gives me a really familiar feeling..."

Xia Zhi followed Xia Lin's finger, but from God's perspective, he saw nothing.

It's probably because the distance is too far.

Xia Zhi led Xia Lin about ten steps in that direction.

Finally, a calm-looking young man came into his view.

He had brownish-yellow hair, blue-green eyes, and a strange star-shaped mark on his neck with a Geo-elemental Eye hanging from it. He wore a white hooded coat with black and yellow accents, connected at the front by a diagonal belt and linked at the back by chains. He wore long gloves over a dark blue turtleneck sweater with dark trim, and shorts and over-the-knee boots.

To Xia Zhi's surprise, he actually saw a diamond-colored progress bar on the young man.

Besides the wind god, does Mondstadt have another god?

Chapter 448 The Art of Life Alchemy (4K)

Xia Zhi couldn't help but fall into thought.

If there is another god in Mondstadt, then Venti, as the wind god, could not possibly be unaware of the other's existence, nor could he fail to inform them.

Unless the other party just entered Mondstadt...

It seems we should stick to the old methods of knowing ourselves and our enemy.

Xia Zhi selected the other person's figure from God's perspective.

The system's voice echoed in his mind.

"Use [Learn from Others] on the target?"

"Yes."

"Successfully used [Steal] skill and learned the skill [Child of Chalk] from the target."

"【Child of Chalk】: Passive, a forbidden life form forged from the immaculate soil, the primordial material of this world, capable of absorbing the shattered divine essence of the primordial world."

Xia Zhi's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the skill descriptions on the system panel.

The so-called origin of this world naturally refers to the being who fought against the seven ancient elemental dragons and stripped them of their authority.

But the phrase "the primordial, shattered divine essence" reveals a tremendous amount of information to him:

The original one seems to have already perished.

Not only did it perish, but even its divine essence shattered into many pieces.

One of those portions was obtained by someone who then used some forbidden method to transform it into the humanoid life form before them.

Xia Zhi knew that there was someone in this world who had already mastered the secret method of refining life, and that was the "mother" who gave birth to Xia Lin's predecessor, [Dulin]—Golden, Rhinedot.

There is a high probability that Rheindorf was the creator of this "Child of Chalk".

Could it be... that this is the unforgivable crime that Kanria committed five hundred years ago?

Because she desecrated the origin?

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, and then, once again, he selected the other person's figure from God's perspective.

"Successfully used [Learn from Others] and learned the skill [Mastery of Painting] from the target."

"【Mastery of Painting】: Passive, becomes a master painter."

"Successfully used [Stealing Skill], and learned the skill [Black Soil Technique] from the target."

"【Black Soil Technique】: An alchemical technique that can give birth to life. The mana cost depends on the type of life form being created."

Xia Zhi looked at the new skill descriptions that appeared on the system panel and was somewhat surprised.

Why did this "Child of Chalk" also master the art of life transmutation?

Was it taught to him by his creator, or did he figure it out himself?

The young man seemed to sense Charlene's gaze and turned his eyes in their direction.

However, because Xia Lin is wearing a golden headband around her neck, all of her abilities have been suppressed by Xia Zhi, so Xia Lin is now just a weak young girl.

The young man didn't sense anything unusual from Charlene, so he withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward.

The directions in which the two sides move forward are opposite.

Soon, Xia Zhi brushed past this seemingly harmless young man.

There was no communication between the two sides.

After the young man disappeared around the street corner, Xia Zhi looked down and asked, "Xia Lin, what did you see behind that person just now?"

Charlene seemed a little troubled. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Dad, I only saw a blur..."

"A blur?"

The other party is a shattered original god, so it seems normal that his essence would be like this.

Xia Zhi nodded and then asked.

"You said before that he gave you a very familiar feeling?"

"Ah."

"What exactly is it like?"

"It's like...it's like family..."

"My dear..."

Xia Zhi lowered his head and pondered.

Charlene's predecessor, "Durin," was created by the Golden Rhinedoth.

If the "Child of Chalk" we just saw was also created by Golden Rhinedoth.

From a certain perspective, Charlene and the other person can be considered siblings, and it's reasonable that they would have a familial feeling towards each other.

Xia Lin looked up and saw that Xia Zhi was not speaking. She thought he was unhappy because of what she had just said and couldn't help but worry that he might leave her with the stranger she had just described as a relative.

Charlene clutched his clothes and said timidly, "Daddy, you won't abandon me, will you?"

Xia Zhi chuckled upon hearing this, reached out and patted her head, saying, "How could that be? Don't overthink it. You are my disciple. Even if your mother came, she couldn't take you away if you didn't want to."

Charlene felt the warmth of her own hands on her head, and her body finally relaxed.

Xia Zhi felt a little helpless; this little guy really lacked a sense of security.

After strolling around the streets for a while, they felt a bit tired and decided to return to their accommodation to rest. They planned to go out again in the evening to see how the night view of Mondstadt compared to that of Liyue.

Back to the Church of the West Wind.

Xia Zhi took Wind Wings to Liu Yun Zhenjun's room.

"Does the True Lord have time?"

"Yes, Mr. Xia, what is this?"

"True Lord is proficient in the art of mechanisms. I would like to ask you to study the Wings of Wind together and see if we can develop a device with better performance."

"it is good!"

True Lord Liuyun readily agreed.

Whether or not she could work with Mr. Xia was irrelevant; what mattered most was her keen interest in researching such unusual things.

The two of them completely dismantled the brand-new Windwing that they had just bought.

After Xia Zhi finished disassembling it, he had a pretty good understanding of the design principles of the Wind Wing.

It's somewhat similar to a hang glider from the original world, but all the materials used are special alchemical materials.

For example, the material texture of the feathers is almost identical to that of real bird wings.

“True Lord, I have some insights into this matter, please enlighten me.”
