Teyvat Survival Guide

Albedo glanced at the notebook in his hand which was filled with dense writing.

"Let's go back to the camp." He said lightly, then turned and entered the camp.

Samuel was stunned.

Huh? Isn't there another test to be carried out?

Although he was confused, Samuel followed Albedo into the camp.

Of course, don’t forget to use a wisp of wind to carry the essential oils together.

As soon as he arrived at the camp, Albedo started rummaging around, as if he was looking for something.

"I remember there should be a little more in the camp..." he muttered while looking for him.

Samuel was instantly alert.

A little bit of what?! It doesn’t seem like a good thing!

Finally, Albedo found a glass bottle containing some red stones that emitted a bright red glow among a pile of debris.

He looked at the red stone in the glass bottle, as if confirming the dosage.

Then he nodded: "Yeah, not bad, that should be enough."

Albedo walked over with a glass bottle and held it in front of the Wind Slime.

He explained: "This is the Deep Red Stone, which is made from the blood of the magic dragon Durin. It carries a strange and powerful vitality."

Samuel looked at the stone in the glass bottle that was glowing scarlet red, and felt that it exuded an ominous aura.

Albedo cleared his throat and explained his plan:

"This is the main material I made for your alchemy. The auxiliary materials, the hurricane seeds and the free turquoise, are to strengthen your wind elemental power and stabilize your spirit.

“Durin’s strange power might drive people crazy. Of course, this is just my guess.

"Even if they don't affect your spirit, Hurricane Seed and Freedom Turquoise will be good for you."

Listening to his story, Samuel felt more and more that seeking out teacher Albedo for alchemy was the right choice.

This plan, this strategy, is so detailed and serious!

Albedo continued to explain:

“In addition, I will try to combine the ability of the Mimicry of the Trickster Flower with the power of Durin and perform alchemy with you. This may allow you to have abilities similar to the Mimicry of the Trickster Flower, so that you can achieve the effect of becoming an adult.

"I was worried that the mimicry might require a large capacity, so I used slime as an auxiliary material to enhance it for you.

"I only have one chance to do alchemy this time. No one can guarantee what the consequences will be if I fail. I must be fully prepared."

Samuel was so moved that he almost cried after hearing this.

Look, how rigorous and careful Mr. Albedo is...

——But this cannot cover up the fact that you used me as an experiment!

Seeing the little slime blinking, Albedo used pliers to take out a piece of scarlet deep red stone, about the size of a grain of rice.

"So, now we need to test you to see if you will resist Durin's power." He held the small deep red stone in front of Samuel, "Are you ready?"

Samuel looked at the scarlet light that carried an ominous aura and had to admit that he felt a little nervous.

This feeling is like the fear you felt when you went to the dentist as a kid and the doctor was about to drill into your mouth with an electric drill...

But, for the sake of being an adult, I’ll fight for it!!

Come on, Ollie Gei!!!

Samuel shook himself forward, which looked to Albedo like a nod.

Seeing that he was ready, Albedo responded and slowly moved the rice-sized deep red stone closer to him. He used a little force when it touched Samuel until the deep red stone pierced the other's crystal surface and completely wrapped the scarlet.

Albedo pulled out the pliers and put them aside, then took out a notebook and a pen to observe carefully.

"The Deep Red Stone is intact in Samuel's body, with no signs of dissolution... We should consider grinding the Deep Red Stone into powder before the experiment.

"Bubbles are slowly forming around the Deep Red Stone in Samuel's body. The reason remains to be investigated..."

Hearing this, a certain little slime felt the foreign object in its body and couldn't help but complain:

You are really using me as an experiment!

“Also, Samuel did not feel any obvious hard substance inside his body, so he should not have all his internal organs intact.

“The suspicion of mental possession has increased, but there is no way to verify it.

“…Perhaps the state of the spirit body can be sensed through electric current.”

Samuel was immediately startled.

What the hell?

Electric current induction spirit body? ?

He quickly looked at Albedo, and seeing Albedo's serious expression, he suspected that he might not be joking.

Maybe he really wants to give me an electric shock to see if some ghost spirit will come out! !

Lord Barbatos, I don’t want to play anymore. Come and save me.

Albedo was unaware of his inner cry for help. After recording it, he took out the stone from his body and put it into another empty glass bottle.

"The deep red stone that was taken out seems to carry pure wind elemental power. Is it because it came from Samuel? I have my doubts for now.

"Also, Samuel showed no signs of rejection of the Deep Red Stone except for his emotions. Does this mean that the Deep Red Stone only affects the emotions of slimes? Or is it a dosage issue?"

As he spoke, Albedo took out another piece of deep red stone the size of a grain of rice and ground it into powder.

Samuel looked at his movements and thought, that was not grinding stone powder, that was sharpening knives to kill pigs and sheep! !

No wonder she treated him so well, and built half of the camp with the Wind Essential Oil. It was probably a compensation she made in advance because she felt bad about it!!

He was terrified at the thought that there might be other experiments against him in the future.

Please kill me, please.

Kill me ahhhhhhhhh.

……

Just like that, as Albedo conducted one experiment after another on the Deep Red Stone, Samuel was startled and frightened the entire day, and fell asleep exhausted, wanting to cry but unable to.

When Albedo saw that the two circles representing the little slime's eyes had narrowed into slits, he realized that it had fallen asleep and stopped the experiment in his hand.

"It's really getting late." He said calmly, "Good night."

He threw a blanket over Samuel and left the camp alone.

Albedo raised his head and looked at the moon.

"It's time to investigate the anomalies on the snowy mountain." He lowered his head and searched for traces in the snowy field in the dark night under the faint light of the moon.

After Albedo walked away for a while, Samuel, who was still sleeping, sensed a familiar breath approaching.

He opened his eyes blearily and found a green figure wandering around the camp, seemingly visiting or observing something.

The green figure noticed that Samuel was awake and turned to look at him.

He raised his hand and greeted the little slime: "Hey, good evening?"

When Samuel saw who was coming, he immediately came to his senses.

“Lord Barbatos——!!”

He rushed into Wendy's arms quickly. Wendy obviously didn't expect his reaction to be so big and was hit by the little slime.

"Quick, quick, take me away!" Samuel said urgently, "I want to get away from this place of trouble! Quick!!"

Wendy laughed, patted his head, and said in a relaxed tone: "No."

“Ahhh, why is this happening!!” The little slime complained for a while, and when he calmed down, he looked up at the boy and asked in confusion, “By the way, Lord Barbatos, why are you here?”

Wendy paused for a moment, then sang in the tone of an ode:

"At noon, the gods heard the call of his followers."

"So, the gods quietly responded to His followers at night." He suddenly changed his tone in the second half of the sentence, his tone was cheerful.

Samuel was stunned.

"Family?" He asked in confusion, "... me??"

Wendy's eyes flashed with guilt, but she still nodded: "Well, from today on, you are the follower of the God of Wind."

As he spoke, he glanced around the camp and sighed:

"He chose to use Durin's power to create a body for you. This is different from what I thought."

The little slime seized the opportunity and rubbed his cheek:

"Hurry, since the plan has changed, take me away!"

Wendy pushed away the wind slime that was rubbing her face and retorted:

"No, his plan is much better than what I thought."

"I thought I had to break you into pieces and then put you back together again," he added with a smile.

Samuel's eyes widened.

what?

Seeing his dull gaze, Wendy couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

He raised his hand and rubbed Samuel's head, comforting him:

"Well, you didn't suffer any real harm.

"He probably just wanted to scare you because he was bored while doing experiments. He will still treat you well as he should."

"Look, he also prepared Tevarin's tears." Wendy pointed to the pure crystals that were well preserved on the table.

Samuel calmed down and asked in confusion, "Tevalin's tears?"

Wendy nodded. "He must have picked up that teardrop when he was doing some research. Then he heard that the Traveler could purify the teardrops, so he went to find the Traveler."

"I think, if you have a serious aversion to the Deep Red Stone, he should take out the Teardrop Crystal to save you." He guessed, stroking his chin.

Samuel was stunned: "...save me?"

"Yes, just like how Tevarin defeated Durin and saved Mondstadt." Wendy explained with a smile, and then he sighed, "By the way, the pure tears of dragons are a rare treasure for alchemists, and they are actually used on you."

A certain little slime felt more and more uncomfortable after hearing him say this, and felt that he had misunderstood Teacher Albedo.

"So, he thinks so highly of me..." he murmured, "I misunderstood him...

Samuel was feeling guilty for being so self-righteous, but the next second Wendy's voice rang out:

"Well, not necessarily. What I just said was just my guess." He speculated again, "It's possible that he just wants to play a trick on you."

Samuel's eyes widened: "You——"

"Hey."
