Chapter 60: Guessing the Fruit Wine Lake, a wonderful metaphor

Slime gel, the sticky liquid covering the surface of the slime, is the basis for shaping the invisible elements into round shapes and is a common raw material in elemental workshops everywhere.

Slime Clear, an upgraded version of gel, is the secretion of slime. Direct contact with it is harmful to the skin. It is best to add protection when picking it up.

The price difference between the two is huge, and fluctuates depending on the amount the adventurer obtains.

Jiang Yi's knowledge is naturally the result of his vision cultivated by the knowledge from games and Amber's books.

I tore off a piece of discarded cloth from the dock, tied it into two pockets, and put the items in them.

The properties of Slime Condensate and Slime Clear are pure. No matter whether it is ice, water or fire, what is dropped is the same.

Not hot, not cold.

Jiang Yi frowned and looked at the charred earth.

Teyvat has its own laws. The charred earth will be quickly restored by the surging grass elements, and new sprouts will appear within a few days.

What puzzled him was that this place was next to the Fruit Wine Lake, a place with abundant water elements, so why did the fire slime appear here?

Logically speaking, the water slime that appears should be enriched with water elements, right?

Stand still and think for two minutes.

He thought of the daily tasks in the game and seemed to have done them before.

Someone was attacked, and then he would be told that a small island on the other side of the lake was covered with a strange fog.

After being blown away by the wind element, a bunch of fire slimes will pop out from the small island surrounded by the lake.

According to what Amber had taught her about Mond's geography and climate that night, Cider Lake was an unfrozen lake with a constant temperature all year round.

So, is there any connection between the element of fire and the lake that never freezes?

Under the lake, is there geothermal energy or magma formed by the element of fire that maintains the temperature of the lake water?

pity……

Jiang Yi's limited elemental vision could only see water, so he had no way of getting to the bottom of the lake to see if there was any fire element.

If you have a chance to explore, you might find some secrets.

In Teyvat, secrets have a one in two chance of representing treasure.

Back to the training ground, the instructor will be here in ten minutes.

There were a few people standing on the field, watching the fun over there with the two-handed swords.

"No-a-er!"

A man holding a two-handed sword looked at the clean training ground on the one-handed sword side, then looked at his own half-cleaned training ground covered with sawdust.

His thick eyebrows were raised and he shouted loudly.

It looks like a child calling for his mother.

With a bunch of people watching him, he couldn't help but slow down his tone.

"Noelle, what happened yesterday? Why didn't you clean up?"

"We are about to start training. These sawdust will affect our performance. I hope you can do it as soon as possible!"

Noelle hesitated, and was about to salute when she heard the man's next words.

"Sorry, I'll clean it up..."

"Wait!" Jiang Yi climbed over the wooden box that separated the venue and stood in front of Noel.

"I'm sorry, she was too tired yesterday, so I let her rest. I cleaned the training ground..."

Jiang Yi smiled and changed the subject.

There seemed to be swords in his eyes and his words were full of thorns. He didn't seem like he was here to apologize at all.

"It's just... I got hungry halfway through the journey, so I ran to eat and then forgot about it!"

"You're all grown men, just deal with it yourselves! There's still trash today, so let's clean it up together!"

"If the sawdust under your feet can affect your swordsmanship, then if you run out of the city and fight a hillbilly, won't you be tripped by the weeds on the grass?"

"A two-handed torch hill that fell flat on the ground?"

The two-handed sword trainers around looked at Jiang Yi. What was this guy doing?

You are the best at one-handed swordsmanship, and you are coming to our side to show off your power?

The one being scolded was the man opposite, and also scolding them.

You said we can't beat the Hilichurls, and you also said we are not as good as the Hilichurls?

"Torch Hill?" There was a loud laugh from the one-handed sword, and everyone remembered the interesting scene.

Yesterday, the two-handed sword guy called them trash.

Now it seems that the two-handed sword that can be affected by sawdust is even more useless than them.

In an instant, the faces of the two-handed sword trainers turned red.

Torch Hill, an insult of the same level as Pink Rabbit.

Noelle was worried, but also wanted to laugh.

Does Jiang Yi totally disregard the etiquette and rhetoric of knights?

How can you say such insulting words?

The man gritted his teeth: "Are you provoking me?"

"No! I was just speaking metaphorically." Jiang Yi shook his head. How could this be called a provocation? This was called stating a fact.

"Noel! We are about to start training, can you help me?"

The veins on the man's sword-holding hand were exposed. He no longer looked at Jiang Yi, but at Noelle, and shouted word by word.

I am the eldest son of the Mondstadt nobles.

Being humble, learning etiquette, and dealing with you are almost exhausting my patience.

Give the maid a command, what's wrong?

Is anyone going to oppose me?

The spirit of the Knights of Favonius is even worse than that of the Fatui.

No wonder Mondstadt is becoming increasingly decadent. There is only freedom, no hierarchy, no respect or inferiority, and it is far surpassed by Winter.

I want to change it and restore the glory of the nobility.

"cannot!"

Seeing Noelle hesitate, Jiang Yi directly helped her refuse.

"Today, she also wants to train! She will study the West Wind Sword Technique with me!"

"If you are willing to come over and set up a stake, I can reluctantly discuss it with you."

A shrill whistle heralded the arrival of the instructor.

Everyone gathered at the center and lined up for roll call.

The two-handed sword trainer had a gloomy expression and temporarily suppressed his anger.

"Very good, very good, stranger, I will remember you!"

He remembered that this nosy outsider had once suggested that they clean the place themselves.

It's been a few days, and I still don't give up.

Yesterday, the trainers on the one-handed sword side listened to him.

Today, something unusual happened at the two-handed sword training ground.

It must be this stranger who instigates Noelle every day.

Otherwise, how could a well-behaved and nice man, better than the family maid's tool, be unwilling to clean?

"Remember my words!" Jiang Yi grabbed Noelle's hand and said, "Let's go! This morning, I encountered something and I need to report it to the instructor."

"By the way, have him arrange for you to come to our training ground! Anyway, you already know the West Wind Sword Technique, so it doesn't matter whether you learn it here or not. The important thing is sparring."

Noelle lowered his head.

Jiang Yi didn't listen at all.

My heart is in turmoil.

Is this really okay?

"Bah!" The man watched Jiang Yi leave and slammed his two-handed sword heavily on the ground.

Damn outsider! He got so proud of himself after being praised by the piano leader.

Wants to ride on all of us.

The maid of the Knights was pulled to the one-handed sword side, which is a huge loss and shame for our two-handed sword training ground.

He walked into the crowd and started to speak ill of Jiang Yi, listing off all the things he hated.

A small number of people don't care, but most people feel dissatisfied.

Too embarrassing!

What if he became an official knight?

"Instructor, look at this!" Jiang Yi took Noel to find his instructor and handed him a bag containing slime gel and slime clear.

The instructor looked at his most outstanding student, the kidnapper, with a gleam in his eyes.

Curiously, he opened the bag and looked at the items inside.
