Only it itself knows its complicated feelings.
This kind of fun didn't last long.
Li Mo then took time off to do his own things. Yae Shinko told him the exact time for the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.
The time of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is not fixed on a certain day, but it is often chosen on the night of the full moon. The monsters think that dancing wildly under the full moon is the most valuable.
Everything in the past will not completely disappear with the passage of time. Ghost stories, myths and legends, information passed down orally and recorded in books are all records of the past, but they may be biased. And these are precisely the "thoughts" of human beings.
Thought, in the world of Magical Index, is one of the requirements of magic.
You can use the Inazuma people's understanding of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons to get the "mystery" you want. There is really no record of this in Narukami Taisha. At most, a group of people accidentally saw the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, felt scared, and came to Narukami Taisha Taisha to ask for help from the shrine maiden.
In this regard, we need to find a society to carry out the work.
Among the three magistrates, Tenryo Bugyo and Kanjo Bugyo are not something that ordinary people would come into contact with. The former maintains public order. After the army was separated, the focus of Tenryo Bugyo shifted to maintaining public order and mediating disputes. If a crime is suspected, there will be a one-stop service of collecting evidence, arresting, and trying. The latter manages business, and every businessman has to deal with Kanjo Bugyo.
Crime and business, these two things are too far away for ordinary people.
But the shrine is different. The shrine is mainly responsible for the management of sacrificial activities and humanities and arts. For example, fireworks festivals have to deal with the shrine.
The shrine magistrate, who has close ties with the people, is also the most well-informed. By utilizing the relationship between the Narugami Taisha Shrine and the shrine magistrate, Li Mo successfully found out how people view the One Hundred Demons Night Parade.
——Even though these views are old news and most people today regard them as stories, in Li Mo's opinion, it is precisely this kind of thought that can be easily utilized.
Based on a symbol, perform “approximate” modification to the shape you need.
This is a magician, this is a sorcerer.
On the day before the full moon of this month, Li Mo successfully developed the "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" by combining the data of those monsters, which could transform them into monsters.
Chapter 467: Cleaning Up Monsters
For the people on the road of Teyvat, ley lines and monsters are often inevitable. The ley lines that are born from the ley lines contain treasures, or directly contain Mora, or directly contain valuable weapons.
However, the earth vein flower, like a treasure chest, is not something that can be easily obtained. When the earth vein flower is born, it will attract monsters to gather there. Sometimes it is hill people, sometimes it is mechanical creations, and you may even encounter sea ghosts.
——In the wild, caravans don’t appear every day. But earth vein flowers appear from time to time.
For Inazuma now, the living space for the Kairangui is getting smaller and smaller. At any time, the general's will cannot be shaken. When she needs Inazuma to change, then Inazuma will embrace the change.
Moreover, the situation in Inazuma has changed in the past two or three months. Inazuma Sanbuyo has accumulated wealth, and the resources exchanged for the Heart of God are even more abundant, which is enough for the Mora to overhaul the civil engineering.
The development of Qinglai Island has been put on the agenda. Because of the travelers, the "Rain Authority" on it is particularly weak. It will take a long time to recover. It does not affect the development led by the shogunate. Kaigi Island also got a share of the pie as it wished.
Even with Li Mo's endorsement, if Coral Palace Xinhai can't even do this, then he is not worthy of being a leader.
Ying has always maintained correspondence with Coral Palace Xinhai. After participating in the Qinglai Island development plan, the girl's mood in writing letters has improved a lot.
"Paimon, how about we go to Umijima again before we leave Inazuma?"
"Of course, I want to eat the food I haven't had before." Paimon said, "When I was chatting with Jinbei before, he said that there are also delicious foods on Kaigi Island, but because of the shortage of supplies, the three meals a day are like that."
Paimeng is often unable to resist delicious food. She can sleep in the open air and endure hardships. The only thing she cares about is a bite of food. As the chef, Ying has also practiced a way to make delicious food with limited ingredients.
Ying said, "Sure. But we have to complete our current mission before we can consider that matter. We even have to go to Heguan."
Among the Inazuma Islands, Tsurukan is undoubtedly the most mysterious island. It is not an island where the Inazuma people live. It is not that there are no Inazuma people who have landed on the island, but those who went to explore it did not find anything of value.
The priest specifically asked me to go to Heguan. Does that mean he believes he can solve the problems in Heguan?
Ying thought.
She now has a special feeling for that priest, who treats her like a younger sister. In the country of Inazuma, she can be said to have enormous power, if not overbearing.
Behind me is the priest, and behind the priest is the general. To round it off, the general is standing behind me.
Of course, as an adventurer, Ying would not do bad things.
Standing up from the boulder he was sitting on, Ying patted his butt and said, "Paimon, the time is almost up, we should go to the designated location."
"Traveler, why are we going to the abandoned shrine?"
"Because the monsters will gather there due to the disturbance of the earth veins."
"This is what I want to ask, why are the earth veins disordered? Why do they gather there after being disordered?" Paimon turned into a question baby and asked several questions.
Ying said, “I don’t know.”
"Wow~~~ I don't want to face the priest when I go back." Paimon said dejectedly: "The priest is obviously doing research, but why can he still ask so many questions?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he would ask all kinds of questions. And many of them were similar to the interpretation of daily phenomena, such as why the ground veins gave birth to the ground vein flowers, and why the ground vein flowers gave birth to Mora and the holy relics?
Ying hurried on and said, "Who told Paimon to ask the priest for snacks?"
“Because it’s delicious.”
As mentioned before, Paimon likes delicious food. Whether it is flying in the sky, running on the ground, or swimming in the water, as long as it is delicious, she can accept it.
As it happens, the priest always has a lot of delicious food hidden in his pocket, which makes Paimon like to go to him to ask for food. Then, the priest who was lost in thought was looking for fun.
For the sake of delicious food, he is willing to become the entertainment of others. Ying didn't know what to say to Paimeng, and then she thought, maybe Paimeng doesn't even realize this?
If she knew that, she would definitely be furious, right?
Later, there was no further discussion on this topic. After Ying pulled Paimon and took a shortcut with the help of the Wings of Wind to reach the destination, she used the means given to her by the priest to notify the priest.
Then, the ground veins became chaotic, and the monsters began to gather in this direction. According to the priest, they would only come in this direction. Although Yingxiang Mountain had been cleared many times by the army, monsters were like weeds, always popping up in various places. No matter how hard you tried, you couldn't kill them all.
The number of monsters gathered was not small. Ordinary soldiers would have to work in small groups to deal with them. But for Ying, it was not enough. She quickly dealt with the monsters. Because the range of attraction was large, the monsters came in batches. Ying just sat back and waited, surrounded the monsters and attacked the reinforcements, killing the monsters easily.
While waiting for the earth veins to calm down and the attraction to the monsters to disappear, the information from the Narukami Taisha Shrine came to her in the form of a thousand paper cranes, and Ying knew it was time to return to the Narukami Taisha Shrine.
The time also came to evening, the sun set in the west, and the stars dotted the sky.
Going up a mountain is always more difficult than going down.
With wings of wind, you can just jump off a cliff when going down the mountain. But to go up the mountain, you need to walk on the mountain road.
However, with the help of the priest, she was able to create a wind field with the help of props, and she could easily climb the mountain using the wind field fluorescent light, and easily return to the Naruto Grand Shrine. She had dinner in the cafeteria - a dinner that was specially kept warm for her.
After doing all this, she headed to the courtyard where the sacred cherry tree was.
The corridors of Narukami Taisha Shrine are dotted with lights, but you can still see the stars in the sky. Where the bright stars gather is a round bright moon. Tonight is a full moon night.
It’s also the beginning.
Ying actually doesn't know what is hidden behind the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade". She is just a ruthless worker.
The Mora given by the priest is too much. After completing this task, I will be financially free. In addition, if I can get the reward for Heguan's mission, I don't have to worry about not having enough Mora even if I go to the next country.
"The last participant is here. Ying, I'm really sorry to trouble you with the leyline matter."
"It's no trouble, Priest. Can I ask you any questions?" Ying said.
Of course Li Mo would agree, and then Ying asked Paimeng the same question again.
Those two questions about the ley lines.
Chapter 468: The Beginning
Why are the earth veins disordered?
Why did the monsters gather around the abandoned shrine instead of gathering in other places after the ley lines became chaotic?
Ying, who has plenty of adventure experience, knows that this behavior is abnormal.
Paimon's question was remembered in her mind and asked at this moment.
"Ying, what do you think ley lines are?"
Ying shook her head. This was clearly beyond her knowledge.
She had no idea what the definition of a leyline was.
Li Mo put his hands behind his back and said, "I have never found out what the earth veins are. But one thing is certain: the earth veins are closely related to human thought. The earth vein flower named "Gold Hidden" was born in response to the human desire for wealth. The flower bud named "Revelation" will give feedback on the adventures of the past."
There are two kinds of earth vein flowers on the continent of Teyvat. The former can provide Mora, and the latter can only provide combat experience.
In the game, there are two types of leyline flowers: one provides currency and the other provides experience books. But in the real world of Teyvat, experience books do not exist at all. But after the leyline flower named "Revelation" is opened, it will allow the person who opens it to enter a state of emptiness, which will help in martial arts, skills, and the mastery and development of the Eye of God.
——It is equivalent to changing from directly gaining experience to a buff, a buff that focuses on improving oneself.
"However, no matter which type of earth vein flower it is, it is a conceptual flower that symbolizes the disorder of elemental circulation and the accumulation of earth vein energy. People often say that other monsters will be encountered in the earth vein flower, but as an adventurer, you should also understand that when you try to collect the earth vein flower, it will instinctively spit out monsters for self-defense.
I have two guesses. One is that those are the monsters stored inside the Earth Flower. The other is that those monsters have just been born."
Inazuma is not Sumeru.
If it were Xumi, he could talk to more people and perfect his ideas. But in Inazuma, that was not the case. Most people here were still struggling for food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Scholars could not be born in such an environment.
Li Mo said, "I accidentally talked about speculation. Ying, you also know that I only need to know the beginning and the end, and I can directly replicate it. The earth vein flower is caused by the earth vein, and monsters can appear in the earth vein flower. With this concept, I need the energy of the earth vein."
He was the one who disturbed the earth veins. In the world of Magical Index, earth veins existed. The concepts of earth veins in the two worlds were different, but the earth veins in both worlds contained energy that could be utilized.
According to Inazuma's intelligence network in Xumi, it is known that scholars in Xumi have developed a machine to extract earth vein energy. This can prove this point.
"What do you need the energy of the earth veins for, Lord Priest?" Paimon asked. "This has nothing to do with the so-called Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, right?"
Li Mo said: "Paimeng didn't think of it, so did Ying think of it?"
"Yes. No matter what the process is like, as long as you have the same beginning, you can get the same result." Ying elaborated on Li Mo's core point.
Li Mo, who was wearing a priest's uniform, nodded with satisfaction and said, "As expected of Ying. Then, Paimon really doesn't understand, right?"
"Yes, why do you all like to tell riddles? Why do you suddenly jump from here to there?"
The Son of God is like this, the priest is like this, and even the traveler is like this. In the end, among this group of people, the most amiable one is actually the Shadow? Paimon couldn't help but sigh.
Li Mo: "You can understand that I am going to use the energy of the earth veins to shape bodies for other monsters and let them live again..."
"Oh, is that kind of thing possible?" Paimon widened his eyes.
Li was too lazy to explain to Paimeng, as long as Ying understood. The next second, he started to chase them away, asking Ying and Paimeng to leave the sacred cherry tree.
In his perception, the monsters also woke up from their slumber. After receiving the supply of vitality from the previous step, the monsters' breath became much longer.
The full moon shone on the earth, causing Li Mo to squint his eyes. In today's Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts, all the participants, except him, were deceased.
He looked up at the bright moon, his pupils turning pure gold.
……
"Ying, sometimes I wonder, is the blood left in this little fellow really the blood of the Sky Fox?"
