Chapter 1217: And Us, Candle of Life, Tree King Mushroom, Ecological Niche

"Zeus, what's wrong with you!" Ni Lu noticed that Jiang Yi was not in a good state. "Are you tired? Then take a rest."

She explained the situation to the audience and ended the theater's street performance.

The audience cheered so enthusiastically.

Zubair Theatre does not accept gifts from the audience.

If you want to express your love, just send a message.

Like flying snowflakes, letters carrying the audience's enthusiasm were carried by dusk birds to the theater's mailbox.

The Mingcai bird is a bird that lives in the Sumeru forest.

The feathers are gorgeous and attractive.

It has a black and red beak, white cheeks, dark green, blue, grass green, and light green feathers, and a yellow, brown, and green belly with varying colors, just like the parrots in Jiang Yi's hometown.

Legend has it that in the past they were quite intelligent, able to learn human speech and even understand writing. After being domesticated, they were able to deliver letters.

Jiang Yi stared at the messenger birds.

His mood has calmed down, and now he is thinking... the House of Religious Orders uses them to send out admission letters, right?

Suddenly I had an interesting idea.

In the future, I will open my own magic academy to study elements, and let Mingcainiao deliver the "admission notice".

Dear Miss Nilu, you have been admitted to Teyvat Magic Academy. Please report to Xumi Grand Bazaar on time. I will seize the authority of "High Heaven" and share it with all living beings.

"Don't eat them..." Ni Lu scratched Jiang Yi's chin, "You have great body coordination!"

"I have tried some acrobatics before, like throwing the ball up and catching it over and over again, but I don't know why I couldn't catch the ball, and it all fell over my head instead." She smiled amusedly when she recalled the past. "Mr. Zubair and the others laughed at me, as if in their eyes, I must have a very strong body coordination ability..."

This can be considered one of her shortcomings.

But she is very good at playing to her strengths and avoiding her weaknesses. Since she is only good at dancing, she just focuses on it.

For her, the art of dance is the simplest and purest thing in the world. It is a beauty that has no threshold and can be felt by everyone.

Become beautiful, and then convey the beauty and value of art.

If you want to convey beautiful words, you must become beauty itself.

A light and strong body is necessary.

"Here, have a little dessert I made myself - a dance. This is the secret to how I stay in shape!" Nilu brought out two transparent cups as gorgeous as flower cups, which contained the dessert "Patishalan Pudding".

As for "Poshayiwu", it was the name given by Nilu herself, because she changed the purple color in the original pudding recipe to red, the same as her hair color.

The lower layer of the pudding is as white as snow, the upper layer is as red as clouds, and the top is decorated with pale blue and purple petals of the Patisalan, exuding a fresh fragrance.

The wonderful pudding melts in your mouth.

Both the taste and appearance remind people of the sparkling figure of Nilu dancing gracefully.

Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes.

It is a wonderful thing to ignore the future and just enjoy the present moment.

"I want to eat too..." A voice made Jiang Yi's pupils widen.

The partial recovery of the seven senses allowed Zhen and Heulia to release a small amount of perception through the channel through which Jiang Yi released his spiritual power.

"Really?" Jiang Yi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

The fantasy of the magic academy in my mind was also interrupted.

At this moment, he was sitting in Nilu's arms. Nilu picked up pudding for him with a spoon and fed him mouthful by mouthful.

"Ahem!" He felt a little guilty.

"I also want to eat Xumi's delicacies, see Xumi's scenery, listen to Xumi's music, and enjoy Xumi's dances and acrobatics..." Zhen said teasingly, "Wow! And be hugged by a beautiful girl."

"What an enviable... 'degenerate' life." Heulia commented calmly, "We don't need to worry about it at all."

"Wow! They were caught." Fanan and Yingda gloated.

"Mama! Mama!" The voice of the fairy actually appeared in my mind.

"When I get a chance, I will definitely bring you food and bring you out." Jiang Yi swallowed the last bite of pudding given by Ni Lu in one gulp, trying to change the subject.

The power of space still sealed the ancestral orifice, and their bodies could not come out. He also couldn't change the reality and illusion and make pudding for them as he did before.

I'm so sorry!

Ni Lu wiped Jiang Yi's mouth with paper.

Put Jiang Yi down, and cleaned and washed the two cups.

"Zeus, I met Mr. Zubair, and he is here to give you your performance fee. Guess how much Mora is here." Nilu came back with a bag in her hand.

Jiang Yi waved his hand.

"Well! Do you want me to help keep it? Put all your money into your own little treasury!" Ni Lu grinned.

"It can also contribute to the family income. What a great cat." Zhen was in Jiang Yi's mind. She took every opportunity to tease Jiang Yi, in retaliation for Jiang Yi's frequent jokes about the homophonic pun of her name.

"It's a good time to open the jade slip and record the screen, but it's a pity that we are not in the outside world." Heulia was in a good mood to tease Jiang Yi today.

"Is this considered a dark history?" Ying Da said with a smile, "You won't sleep with this Xumi girl at night, will you?"

"Ahead of most... there are too many girls." Fanan said it vaguely, but everyone knew which girls she was talking about.

"..." Jiang Yi hesitated for a moment before being carried away by Ni Lu.

Hey! Yandora is still so well-behaved without saying a word.

The corners of his mouth curled up, and although there was some chattering in his ears, it was reassuring.

Tail wagging.

"Hey! It's so itchy!" Nilu was attacked, "Zeus, please don't do anything bad!"

She grabbed Jiang Yi's cat tail that was shaking on her belly.

"Tsk tsk!"

"Scumbag!"

"Scum!"

"You are worthy of... Noelle, Barbara, Fischl, Amber, Keqing, Hu Tao, Kamisato Ayaka, Shen He, Gan Yu, Xiao Gong, Coral Palace Xin Hai..." They almost couldn't catch their breath as they read out so many names, "...Qi Liangliang?"

"And us!"

"Huh? Why are we still here?!"

"That 'Nekomata' isn't right! It's not to this extent yet!"

"But it's the only cat!"

"And... the classic question in the Inazuma light novel romance story should have been supplemented with the words 'and us' to make it more powerful!"

"But this doesn't make it seem like we've fallen in love with Jiang Yi!"

Zhen, Heulia, Fanan, and Yingda, four girls in one drama.

Jiang Yi lowered his head as he listened.

Full of shame.

But...there is nothing between me and Nilu!

"Come on! I'll take you to take a shower!" After returning home, Nilu stretched her hands back, and her long red twin ponytails instantly spread out, covering her entire back.

"Jiang Yi, do you still want to explain?" The girls all looked at him with disdain.

You're trying to trick girls with your cat appearance, right?

See how your future ends.

Damn it, I washed it myself. Jiang Yi was angry, how could you slander someone's innocence out of thin air.

"Letting a girl watch you take a bath is also perverted in a sense."

"Humph!"

"Zeus!"

"By the way, it seems you haven't told us the whole story of the myth represented by this god's name!"

"How about we do some popular science tonight?"

Jiang Yi's body stiffened slightly.

Zeus, what Zeus? I don’t remember what his myth is about at all. He was probably a god who “kept himself clean”!

……

distance.

"Okay, Tinari, we've picked the Moon Lotus." Paimon wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Tinari said that Moon Lotus was very helpful for patients with Demon Scale Disease to restore their energy, so she and Yingda picked these flowers that were as golden as moonlight in the waters of Xumi at night.

"Good quality!" Tinari showed a satisfied look. Ying was indeed a great adventurer with rich outdoor experience.

"Mr. Tinari, something bad has happened! It's the Dead Zone!" Tinari was about to prepare other herbs when he heard a panicked voice and a forest ranger came over.

"Dead Zone?" Paimon wondered.

Ying watched Tinari communicating with the ranger.

"That road was cleared of dead zones a week ago, and now dead zones appear again, and are in the 'expansion period'? The narrow area of ​​the river valley has been occupied?" Tinari's expression was serious.

Only the holder of the Eye of God can deal with the dead zone. All ordinary rangers can do is to notify after discovering it.

He went back to explain the situation to Ying and Paimeng, hoping that they would return.

"We can help too." Ying said, "We still have to travel through Xumi later, and we may encounter these dangerous areas, so we can't avoid them."

"That's true!" Tinari nodded. "If you can use elemental power as rumored, you can resist a certain degree of erosion from the dead zone and help go deeper and eliminate the dead zone."

"But I still want to remind you that even if you have elemental power, you will feel uncomfortable if you go deep into the dead zone. If you can't hold on, you must withdraw in time."

A gray death zone like floating ashes appeared in front of Ying's eyes. After stepping into this area, the vitality was slowly dissipating. On the withered branches, there were red tumor-like fruits that would bring down ominous energy. There were also strange red and gray flowers, and huge "death zone tumors" growing on the roots of the trees.

The forest seems to be fighting back against the "Dead Zone", providing a little help, allowing the processor to obtain the protection of "grass seeds".

Grass seeds, like thunder seeds, rock seeds, and wind seeds, are all strange and tiny elemental spirits.

The columnar mechanisms densely distributed in the forest are activated in the dead zone.

"The origin of the dead zone..." Tinari revealed the secret information, "A long time ago, my ancestors learned about this from the followers of the Great Kindness Tree King. The world tree is sick."

"Those mysterious creatures are called 'Lannaro' by the children, which are the 'plant-like creatures' that you asked Cole to investigate."

"But I cannot tell you the specific information about Lanaro at this moment."

"Recently, the dead zone has been growing very fast. Since the situation in the dead zone started to get worse, Cole's magic scale disease has also become more serious."

"I received a letter from an acquaintance at the ordinance the other day, and he told me that there are many patients with similar conditions."

He looked at the "Candle of Life", a mechanism for dealing with the dead zone that was set up by generations of forest rangers and scholars with the help of the forest during the long struggle.

The mechanisms created by mortals only have a guiding role. What really makes the "Candle of Life" work magically is that it is like there is a trace of the life power of plants and trees inside, which can purify the death that covers part of the life in the dead zone.

There are also grass seeds in the "Auspicious Grass Poplar Branches", which are of great help.

Judging from the current situation, they, the forest rangers, will probably have to fight the Death Zone for a long time.

"Such a huge amount of information..." Paimon held his forehead and watched Ying busying around, solving what Tinari called "Death Zone Branches" and "Death Zone Tumors."

In the dead zone, many contaminated mushroom beasts are extremely violent and aggressive.

Fortunately, Ying is already accustomed to facing danger.

After the red "Death Tumor" was destroyed, the light of grass element emerged from the earth, purifying all the surrounding areas. On the surface, at least the surroundings returned to their "lush" appearance.
