Chapter 159
"How come you have time to stay in the store all the time today?"
The room on the second floor of the Mondstadt Honkai Shop.
After going around in circles, they finally returned to the original shop. The Mondstadt shop here is now letting Mona look after the shop. Some of the Valkyries are training, some are traveling around, some are catching idiots who have overdue weapons rentals, and some... are cleaning up the dead soldiers and Honkai beasts caused by Honkai.
That's right, with the lax governance of all parties, the research on Honkai energy has become more and more extensive, and Honkai beasts have already appeared in places like Xumi and Winter Solstice.
Kiana took the initiative to volunteer to take Mei, who has completed the division and become the Herrscher of Lightning again, to run around. One reason was to eliminate Honkai beasts and learn from the squad leader, and the other was to travel before, and recently she was angry about the lady's matter and hid from the island out of anger.
Of course, she also has to look after the shop. Mondstadt, Liyue, Fontaine, and the new exchange opened by Inazuma all have Valkyries looking after the shops... but there is no one in Mondstadt today.
"I have subordinates now, and real subordinates naturally cannot do everything themselves."Li Dao watched and listened to the grand scene downstairs, some people were playing games, some were opening boxes, as if he had returned to his previous life.……
"Subordinates?"
"That's right, and I also discovered something new, or it broadened my horizons and made me realize that some things may not be so rigid."
Lidao was talking about his system. He recently discovered in his spare time that his system is actually very user-friendly. For example, when he was corrupted by Honkai energy before, the system could deduct money to eliminate it.
Recently, he always felt that he was at a loss for some things he didn't have, or the abilities he couldn't get, such as Void Wanzang, Yu Duchen, Wendy, Anna, Chen Tianwu and their Herrscher cores; there are even the Herrscher of Domination of the current generation, the Herrscher of Corrosion...
and the Herrscher of Constraint.
The abilities of these Herrschers are much stronger than those of the previous civilization, and much more useful than the monotonous Key of God, especially the Herrscher of Domination.
So he complained to the system when he was free, and then he made a discovery...
For example... the Gem of Desire, the Herrscher Core of Wind. Lidao bought it at the system store for 10 billion Mora.
Then he gave the Herrscher Core of Flame to Kiana, allowing her to successfully become a firefly.
Although his wife is still angry , sending gifts didn't work, but... well... the two of them were in sync, one wanted to use this to destroy Honkai, and the other agreed, it wasn't a real quarrel.
This is the realization of being a scumbag.
And the purchase of the Desire Gem also broadened Lidao's thinking, making him understand that the system can do other things.
For example... not following the plot, summoning characters in advance, and even summoning non-Valkyrie characters.
Or... anchoring the earth and traveling back now.
However, the latter is prompted by the system, once Lidao returns, time will begin to flow, and all single substances will be transferred.
For example, the Skyfire Judgment that was originally in Siegfried's hands will disappear.
So don't consider it now... and the cost is extremely expensive.
It's better to say that everything is extremely expensive... The price of summoning in advance is a hundred times that of summoning according to the version. It's also about saving people, and Lidao is dizzy when he sees the price.
"I don't understand what you are saying, and I don't want to care. Here you go!"
Mona threw a light blue jade bead in her hand to Lidao. This is a modified version of the energy-gathering device that she has improved. Its stability is indeed much stronger than before.
"Oh? Are you done with it again?" Lidao held the jade bead in his hand and said,"Compared to silicone, this feels more like jade."
""You mean, it doesn't feel like human skin?" Mona joked,"It's hard to explain it to you, so you can just think of it as... reinforcement magic."
"Well, I'm always the one who gets ridiculed as stupid."Li Dao didn't care. After analyzing it with the power of the Herrscher of Reason, he found that Mona's improved energy-gathering device had a very strange energy running inside it, which was very different from Honkai energy.
That was elemental force, that is, Mona's magic
"Stupid? You are the smartest person, not stupid at all."Mona thought so from the bottom of her heart,"Although I don't know how you make so much money from these small shops and don't spend it, but you have the ability to make so much money, so you are definitely a smart person."
"Come on, you just think I have a lot of money."Li Dao didn't care about her compliments.
"Who said that? I'm serious.……"
"If I were alone, would you still care about me? Why would you waste your time working for me and researching this thing day and night?" Lidao shook the energy-gathering device and pointed at his face,"If you meet me on the road, you'd be lucky if you don't avoid me."
"I……"Mona opened her mouth, clenched her hands, and was speechless.
"But it doesn't matter. I pay, you work, it's a fair deal. Some people can't hire you even if they have money, right?"
Li Dao never thought that spending money on Mona was a loss-making business. On the contrary, some things are worthless.
"Although the things I bought for you were expensive, the things you gave me in return were also valuable. The energy-gathering device is really useful to me, which means that many unnecessary casualties can be avoided."
"I... I'm glad I can help you." Mona looked like she wanted to say something else, but she couldn't say anything. She could only smile and say something meaningless,"Isn't this just a reflection of how smart you are... Hehe"
"Thank you for the compliment... By the way, I suddenly remembered that you invited me to watch your astrology research one night."Li Dao jumped out of bed.
"Hmm? Yes, yes, you...want to go today?" Mona was a little nervous again.
"No, I just remembered it and mentioned it casually."
"……"
"The Windblume Festival is coming up soon. I remember Amber invited me to play with her before. I don't know where she has been recently."
"It seems like... she asked for leave to go to Xumi to visit her friend"
"Xumi? Kelai?"Lidao was puzzled. This was strange. There was no Amber in the plot of Xumi in the previous life, right?
"You know him. That's right. Amber tells you everything."
"No way, how come I don’t know about this?"
"I think she doesn't want you to worry, and you're always away and look busy. I heard it from Klee."
Mona explained:"I heard that Amber's friend is sick, and it's very serious. He has been in Xumi for a while. Recently, the reconnaissance work in the snow mountain has been handed over to Albedo."
"It's strange, Cole was already ill but I haven't heard of it getting any worse."
【Check】
【Yes]
This is one of the experimental individuals that Yiying brought back from Zhidong. It is the third successful one. Its ability is to connect unrelated objects. It can issue orders in the brain by connecting with Yu Duchen.
"……It's okay, I'll leave first."Mona always felt that Li Dao was absent-minded, and just now she was thought to be close to him for money. Although she didn't think so, there was nothing to refute the facts... I always felt a little uncomfortable, so I didn't want to stay for long.
"Are you leaving now? Don't you still need to look after the store?"
"Isn't it you who are here? Away from the boss?" Mona got up from her chair and walked straight out of the room.
"I'm still thinking about having a meal with you since we don't see each other often."
"……"Mona paused, then walked away,"I will definitely"
——
Night, Oath Cliff
"Hey, good evening, Miss Mona."Lidao was sitting on the edge of the cliff. Hearing the footsteps, he waved without turning his head.
"……Why are you here?"Mona was a little surprised, but she still walked to his side.
"Come and watch the stars with me." Lidao pointed to the sky and said with a smile
"What's the truth?"Mona didn't believe his lies.
"I said something hurtful during the day, and I feel bad about it, so I come to apologize and watch the stars with you."
"……"This guy is quite……
"How is it? Am I very attentive? Super asshole?"
"……vomit."
