Explorer of Teyvat

"I am one of your infinite futures."

After a pause, he continued: "The authority of time is one of the components of [immortality]. You are too reckless."

"What?" Wang Daoyi (now) made a confused sound.

“Thinking attunement is possible, but you need to build more anchor points at your current point in time, otherwise you will be easily assimilated by your future self, just like you just did.

Our future is too vast. Neither [immortality] nor [pure beauty] can describe our future.

So, before using Attune of Mind next time, either build more anchors or just look to the past. "

After saying that, regardless of Wang Daoyi's (now) doubts, the great figure shook slightly and disappeared in the long river of time.

[Immortality] is not enough to describe my future?

But what happened to [Pure Beauty]?

Can [Pure Beauty] be compared with [Immortality]?

For a moment, Wang Daoyi's brain felt a little burned.

It wasn't until the time authority in his hand shook slightly that Wang Daoyi came to his senses.

"Although one of me in the future is still the Riddler, he is right about what he said. At this time, it is really too dangerous to connect more future thoughts.

Even though He didn’t do anything, I felt like I couldn’t wait to be assimilated.

Just like... the admiration of lower beings for higher forms. "

After a pause,

Wang Daoyi cursed with a gloomy expression: "Damn it, what will I evolve into in the future?"

After cursing,

Wang Daoyi regained his composure and withdrew his gaze towards the future.

He looked at the bright spots of light in the past timeline.

"I can't contact the future me, but what about the past me?"

Just now, the future Wang Daoyi also said that you can think about asking for it.

As soon as he gritted his teeth, Wang Dao moved his thoughts and thoughts, and his thoughts and will spread towards the light point representing the past.

Touch the first point of light,

Thinking in tune,

A hazy figure immediately appeared in the thinking space, which was the figure representing Wang Daoyi at that point in time.

However, Wang Daoyi was stunned for a moment, and his thoughts continued to contact the other party,

"This? No will?"

Wang Daoyi (now) can feel the large amount of thinking power, or computing power, carried in the opponent's figure.

But the other party's godless eyes also told Wang Daoyi (now) that this was just a thinking body, and it didn't even have its own will.

"Is there something wrong with the synchronization of thinking?"

With such doubts, Wang Daoyi continued to travel upstream along the long river of time and came into contact with other shining points of light.

But unfortunately, when dozens of light points come into contact, each light point represents the same thinking body.

They carry a lot of thinking power (computing power), but no self-will. Even when Wang Daoyi (now) comes into contact with them, the connection with the original timeline is immediately severed.

Suddenly, Wang Daoyi's (now) expression froze, showing a trace of absurdity.

"Damn it, am I that cowardly?"

He finally understood.

It's not that there is a problem with the homology of thinking at all, but it is very successful.

A part of Wang Daoyi in the past held the power of time and successfully contacted the signal sent by Wang Daoyi (now).

They also quickly understood the advantages and disadvantages of thinking attunement.

When countless selves unite, they can naturally solve many problems with great tacit understanding.

But once one of them becomes malicious, everything will go bad.

After these Wang Daoyi in the past came into contact with the thought synchronization request issued by Wang Daoyi (now),

On the one hand, I worry that my future self is in danger.

On the one hand, I am worried that my future self has set a trap.

Therefore, they directly sent a thinking body out.

Cut off the will of the self to ensure that the self at their point in time will not be invaded by the future self.

The reason why Wang Daoyi (now) curses loudly is because this is really what he would do.

He really is that timid and cautious.

A boomerang from the past crossed the river of time and hit Wang Daoyi (present), directly breaking through the defense.

"Forget it, with my level of caution, it is indeed impossible to coordinate my own will, but it's okay, without my own will, these thinking bodies can think according to my ideas."

Wang Daoyi (present) connects the thinking bodies of dozens of Wang Daoyi (past),

Feeling the thinking power (computing power) rushing in the thinking space, I couldn't help but smile on my face.

Although there is no power that can be borrowed from the future, the computing power from the past has also greatly enhanced Wang Dao.

“A total of fifty-two of them have responded to the same tune, which means that they are now fifty-two times richer in computing power.

No, that’s not right. Some Wang Daoyi (in the past) did not have that much computing power, but in total, they were at least forty or fifty times richer in computing power.

In this way, the analysis of the power of destiny can advance by leaps and bounds. "

Thinking of this,

Wang Daoyi showed a smile at the corner of his mouth,

If Tianli regards himself as his former self,

Then, during the decisive battle, I might be able to give him another surprise.

After laughing for a while, Wang Daoyi showed a hint of regret: "Unfortunately, this method can only be used in Teyvat. If you want to use it in the universe, it is probably impossible."

In the universe, he doesn't even have the ability to summon a timeline.

Although he has obtained the authority of time and is one of the components of immortality,

But after all, he is not the immortal dragon itself.

Moreover, even the Immortal Dragon itself may not be able to change the timeline in the universe.

It was only the special nature of Teyvat that allowed Wang Daoyi to find such a bug.

"However, I can also learn from the Black Tower, sit in Teyvat, and make a clone to walk in the universe."

Thinking of this, Wang Daoyi's regret faded away and he smiled again.

"While the thinking body is still there, let's do some calculations first."

Wang Dao's thoughts moved, and the power belonging to his destiny emerged in him.

He was enveloped in colorful brilliance, which represented their respective complex concepts of destiny.

In fact, Wang Daoyi's destiny power, in addition to his wisdom was directly given by Bo Shi Zun,

The other powers are all analyzed and imitated from the Heavenly Principle and the Sustainer.

Therefore, most of his destiny power has only form and no intention.

It’s the only one [Destruction] that still has something of its own.

Now that he has a lot of computing power, Wang Daoyi also wants to sort out these messy fates.

On the long river of time,

Wang Daoyi’s figure stands proudly here,

Many profound concepts enveloped him,

Fifty times the calculation power of thoughts continues to surge, gradually straightening out the power of destiny surrounding him,

Time passes little by little,

The colorful light bands around Wang Daoyi gradually became harmonious.

The layers of colors are distinct, and the same concept of destiny gathers together and turns into a band of light. They surround Wang Daoyi and continue to make circular motions.

If it was just the messy light and shadow in the bar,

Now surrounding Wangdaoyi is the touching rainbow on the horizon.

[Destruction] [Preservation] [Happiness] [Synchrony] [Nothingness] [Memory] [Hunting] [Intellect] [Abundance]...

Different destiny paths seem to be close to each other, but in fact they are not touching.

These powers were straightened out by Wang Dao, just like messy hair with Rejoice.

Highlight a smooth.

But Wang Daoyi's thinking still did not stop analyzing.

After straightening out these destiny concepts, he still needs to analyze them and understand them, so that he can finally use them better.

…

And when Wang Daoyi sorted out the power of fate.

Liyue·Return to Liyuan.

Ying and Zhongli also led a group of people to the ruins where the previous archaeological team was.

Seeing Ying coming with a group of people,

Sister Wan was a little confused in her eyes, but she still came forward.

"Traveller, you are here. Who are these?"

Ying immediately began to introduce: "These are my friends, and they are all people who know the ruins very well. You may have heard of Mr. Zhongli's reputation."

Sister Wan raised her head and looked at Zhongli with some surprise: "So you are Mr. Zhongli. I have heard about your research on Liyue's historical antiquities for a long time. It would be great to get your help."

As the number one street kid in Liyue,

Zhongli often appears in flower and bird markets and antique shops, and his reputation is also top-notch in the archaeological community.

Many people wanted to invite Zhongli to do archeology together, but they couldn't find a way.

Only a few forces can use a large number of Mora offensives to open the door to Hall Master Hu.

Let Zhongli Keqing participate in activities in the name of the Past Life Hall.

"Oh, Liyue is a vast land with rich resources and rich history. It is an honor for me to participate in archaeological activities." Zhongli said to Sister Wan.

On the side, Paimon curled his lips: "That's really cool."

Ying also secretly smiled.

"Haha, Mr. Zhongli speaks so nicely." Sister Wan also smiled, and then looked at everyone, "You guys came just in time. We have cleared most of the mechanisms, and now only the door is left open."

Then he stretched out his hand and said, "Please come with me, everyone, I will rely on your help next."

"Oh, you're too polite." Zhongli naturally took Ying's place and became the leader of the group.

Follow Sister Wan into the ruins,

The interior space of the ruins is very large, and the rough architectural style of thousands of years ago can be vaguely seen.

The strange thing is that although it is located inland, there are many signs of flooding here.

Judging from these traces, it was still sea water.

As Zhongli walked, he skimmed over these traces.

“Guiliji used to be the largest and most prosperous human gathering place in Liyue, and this place should also be the relics from the original time.

These traces of seawater erosion correspond to the reason for the relocation of Guiliji.

A demon raised a huge wave to submerge Guiliji, so the emperor moved the ancient people to the other side of Tianheng Mountain. "

Zhongli's fingertips stroked the rock wall eroded by the sea water, and there was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

There are many memories of him here,

Morax fights and lives here under the armor of the rock face, and together with his friends, he protects countless ancient people who thrive here.

Under the rock walls eroded by sea water, there is hidden the last trace of the once glorious civilization.

"Is Mr. Zhongli also a supporter of the sea disaster theory? Haha, I am too. We have archaeologically discovered many ruins here, and they all have traces of seawater submersion. Therefore, there must have been a super flood before Guili was destroyed. abandoned."

Zhongli's words made Sister Wan very excited.

As an archaeologist, she is very interested in Liyue’s hidden ancient history.

There are many theories about the abandonment of Guiliji in Liyue archaeological circles.

Among them, the theory of sea disaster is the most popular one.

Sister Wan is also its supporter.

Retracting his hand stroking the rock wall, Zhongli smiled slightly: "The abandonment of Guiliji is indeed due to the abnormal movement of the sea water, but it is not entirely the case. It is more...probably due to strategic considerations."

Zhongli still had nostalgia in his eyes.

When I led the ancient people of Liyue to relocate, it was not just because of the invasion of demons in the sea.

You must know that both Guiliji and the Liyue Port behind it are close to the sea. If it is just a problem of relocation in the sea, this cannot be justified.

Therefore, the invasion of the sea is only part of the reason;

Another important reason is that the location of Guiliji is too central.

If it were a time of peace, the vast plains of Guiliji would naturally be able to develop a rich civilization.

But during the Demon God War, Guiliji's geographical location destined it to be attacked from all sides.

So after a flood, Morax ordered the relocation.

Otherwise, the mere danger in the sea is enough for Morax to give in?

Of course, there is another reason. At that time, one of the two gods of Guiliji, Hagentus, the demon god of dust, had already died.

The strength of Liyue’s divine system was greatly reduced.

The Emperor and the Dragon King are going to fight abroad,

The Kitchen God is divided into thousands, and his power is not enough,

Guiliji no longer has the power to resist the invasion of multiple demon gods.

That's why they gave up the fertile plain land and moved to Liyue Port, which was still a wilderness at the beginning.

"Is it a strategic consideration? Well, that makes sense. As expected of Mr. Zhongli, he actually has such a novel angle. When I return to the Archaeological Association, I must tell everyone this point of view." Sister Wan was a little excited.

The two of them chatted while delving into the ruins.

Soon, a door shrouded in a barrier appeared in front of everyone.

In front of the gate, there are many members of the archaeological team collecting some data with instruments.

Seeing Sister Wan appear with someone,

Someone came over immediately: "Sister Wan, we have tried all the recorded energy frequencies of the ruins, and none of them match."

The visitor also shook the instrument in his hand.

Many ruins in Liyue are protected by barriers.

This is not the first time that the archaeological team has encountered this situation during the archaeological process.

And the archaeological team also has a lot of data to use.

As long as you find data with the same frequency as the crystal energy, you can use the corresponding data to release the energy crystal.

But it is a pity that this time it failed.

"Okay, let's take a rest first. I've invited famous travelers to help. Zhongli Keqing from the Hall of Purity is also here. Let them take a look first."

Sister Wan shouted to the busy archaeological team members.

After hearing Sister Wan's words, everyone stopped and put away various instruments.

Then he walked to the temporary camp on the side and looked at Ying, Zhongli and the others.

In view of Ying's reputation and Zhongli Keqing's reputation in Liyue,

No one raised any questions that laymen would not understand.

On the contrary, many members of the archaeological team looked at them expectantly, hoping to gain something.

Zhongli was also polite,

Walk directly to the stable energy interface,

"Well, it is indeed something left behind after all. Let me take a look."

Whispering, Zhongli stretched out his hands and started operating on the energy barrier.

Strangely enough, no matter how hard the archaeological team tried to create the barrier, there was no response.

As soon as Zhongli put his hand on it, something changed.

A large number of runes appeared on the barrier, and they were constantly being deconstructed and reorganized, making it dazzling to see.

The corner of Yingzi's mouth twitched slightly. Fortunately, he invited Zhongli to come over. If he had come by himself, he would have been embarrassed.

For the duo of Ying and Paimon, there is no difference between these runes and the heavenly book.

Under everyone’s expectant gaze,

Zhongli's fingertips kept tapping on the energy barrier,

Gradually, the runes that were constantly being deconstructed and reorganized gradually slowed down.

The energy barrier flickered on and off several times, and finally several lines of ancient Liyue characters appeared.

[What is the underlying structure of alchemy? 】

[How to create life from nothing? 】

[Where is the balance point between mechanical structure and energy drive? 】

Beside, Sister Wan's expression became serious. As an archaeologist, she is naturally proficient in ancient writing.

"There are still problems to test. Tsk, tsk, tsk, have these problems been solved by the ancients? Gu Liyue's technology is really too strong."

Sister Wan said excitedly, and some resting archaeological team members also gathered around.

Zhongli also stopped and looked at Ying: "Traveler, can you answer these questions?"

Ying looked confused,

Alchemy is no stranger to you, and you know how to do it, but what is the underlying structure of alchemy? This is somewhat over the top.

Creating life from scratch is something that Albedo and Wang Daoyi have seen before, but she doesn't know how to do it either.

The balance point between mechanical structure and energy drive? Ying's eyes had already begun to form circles.

Looking at Ying's confused look,

Zhongli was silent for a moment, and then said: "Dao Yi has a lot of books over there. Maybe you can read some when you have free time."

I burst into tears, I'm so sorry for you that I don't read enough books.

Zhongli stopped looking at the screen and turned to the archaeological team: "Guys, do you want to give it a try? There should be no limit on the number of times you can answer questions here."

Sister Wan and others were already a little excited when they saw this barrier and asked questions, so naturally they would not refuse.

Someone came over immediately.

Looking at the first question,

[What is the underlying structure of alchemy? 】

"I remember that when I was taking an alchemy class at Tongwen Academy, the teacher said that alchemy is the exchange of energy and matter. So, my answer is exchange."

He reached out and tapped a few ancient Liyue characters on the barrier.

[The underlying structure of alchemy is exchange. 】

The energy barrier flickered.

【Full score...】

The archaeological team members’ eyes lit up.

[Out of ten, I’ll give you one point. 】

The archaeological team members' faces fell.

"Haha, I'll do it, I'll do it." Someone pushed him away and walked to the interface. "Alchemy can create many magical things. These things do not exist in nature. Therefore, these things come from different materials. Interactive reactions, so the underlying structure of alchemy is reaction.”

The barrier flashed,

[Out of ten, I’ll give you one point. 】

"It's deconstruction. I heard an alchemist master say that if you want to learn alchemy well, you must be proficient in the deconstruction of matter and energy."

The barrier flashed,

[Out of ten, I’ll give you one point. 】

…

Most of the archaeological team members have real materials, and many of the answers they put forward make sense.

But in front of the flashing interface, I couldn’t even pass the first question.

Don't mention the topic, not even one person scored more than one point.

Paimeng quietly walked up to Zhongli and poked Zhongli's arm: "Hey, Zhongli, do you know the answer?"

Zhong Li glanced at the archaeologists who were still answering questions, then shook his head slightly: "I don't know."

"Ah?" Paimon looked shocked and a little in disbelief, "You don't know either?"

Paimon's shock caused Ying to look at Zhongli.
