Since coming to Teyvat, there are very few people who can make Mo Ran lose face, including the Rock King Morax and the elf lady in front of him.

Not long ago, when Mo Ran was strolling in Liyue Harbor with Alice, this lady with a lively personality but a good heart suddenly had an idea and thought about modifying the security shield of Liyue Harbor.

"The current Liyue Harbor shield is not very effective. It can't even block one of my heavy bombs. It's not beautiful and complicated to operate. I don't know who designed it."

In Alice's words, this protective shield is useless and has no effect at all.

Beside him, Mo Ran, the designer, twitched his lips. "Don't I mean to say, have you ever heard of Liyue's long-standing mechanical arts? That protective shield is only in its most basic operating state right now."

"Times have changed. There are no disasters like the Demon God War. As a country of etiquette, Liyue naturally cannot display large offensive weapons in front of guests. That would be very bad."

Alice hesitated for a while, which was unusual for her. Then she spoke, "In other words, the shield is only in the default operating state now, and it can be changed or even strengthened. Is that what you mean?"

Mo Ran nodded and said, "Yes, if a situation like the Demon God War really happens again in Liyue, this protective shield will protect the lights of all the homes in Liyue Harbor."

"The Emperor and all the immortals will take action together and rush to the front line. The Yakshas will stain the sky with blood. The Thousand Rock Army is the last line of defense, closest to their families, but also very far away."

What Mo Ran narrated was a true portrayal of the period of the Demon War. At that time, it was really like this. The Yakshas died in the battle and left their names in the Yaksha Temple. The Qianyan Army was buried on the battlefield and their souls returned to their hometown.

Alice seemed to be infected by this emotion, and she couldn't help but feel a little admiration in her heart. At the same time, she was thinking about bringing Klee to Liyue Harbor. In case there is any trouble in the future, it will at least be safer than staying in Mondstadt.

However, Alice did not expect that she was just asking about the specific bearing capacity of the protective shield in order to make it more convenient to do experiments on Tianheng Mountain in the future, but this Liyue immortal actually told her everything. Are all the Liyue immortals so easy to deceive?

Regardless of how the topic had gone off topic, Alice asked in a puzzled tone, "You say this to everyone who comes to Liyue for tourism? Aren't you afraid of leaking Liyue's secrets?"

Mo Ran was getting more and more confused, and said, "Neither of them. The shield is not a secret. Everyone in Liyue knows about it. Besides, even if I tell you this, you don't know how the shield works in detail. What am I afraid of?"

"As long as the Emperor and the immortals are still here, there won't be any major problems in Liyue. No matter how powerful the technology is, it is just an external object after all. It can't kill a demon god like the Emperor!"

"Besides, the original intention of designing the protective shield was to resist some magical beasts and prevent the aftermath of the battle between the demon gods from harming the people of Liyue. This was an idea that existed before the construction of Liyue Harbor."

Alice put one hand on the back of her head, tilted her head slightly, and smiled: "How do you know so clearly? Did you design it?"

"You're right, it's me." Mo Ran folded his hands in front of him, turned his head and said, "Just now someone seemed to say that there was a problem with the design of the protective shield. Ms. Alice, do you remember who it was?"

"Hehe, I don't know. The weather is really nice today." Alice stretched without caring about her image at all, her curves all over her body were charming.

Mo Ran looked up at the blue sky, not looking at the thorny red rose. His heart was as calm as still water, and he was not distracted.

"Let's go to the next place!" Alice walked a few steps away, turned back and waved. She is already a mother, but she is still so lively. She must have remembered her original intention.

Mo Ran followed and said quietly, "Where else are you going? You've already visited all of Liyue Harbor today."

Alice chuckled, "On the way to Liyue Harbor, I heard about a very famous restaurant that the people of Liyue lingered on. The chef in charge of that restaurant is a young man who always wears black clothes. He seems to be very similar to the resentful person just now!"

Alice narrowed her eyes into crescents and said in a tender voice, "I wonder if the boss surnamed Mo will agree to let me eat in his restaurant?"

Mo Ran got goose bumps all over his body and his scalp was numb. He said hurriedly: "We are open for business, of course everyone is welcome! Just pay Mora."

"Well, let's go."

After many twists and turns along the way, they finally arrived at the hotel. Their journey could be considered a winding and endless adventure, because Ms. Alice would look and touch every few steps.

When Alice met two young Qianyan soldiers walking together, she stopped and watched for a while, listening to their conversation, as if thinking about something.

"Aike, where are we going to eat after we change shifts at midnight tonight?"

The Qianyan soldier named Ai Ke said stumblingly: "How about, let's go to Boss Mo's place and eat? How about that? Spark."

"But it's closed today!" Xinghuo said unhappily, "I don't know what happened. Boss Mo usually doesn't close early. Could something have happened again?"

"Oh, don't, don't make blind guesses. Children's words are without restraint. Children's words are without restraint."

"You are not even older than me, what are you talking about? Are you itching again?"

…………

At the entrance of 'Boss Mo's' restaurant, the door was not fully open but slightly ajar.

Mo Ran pushed the door open and walked in. Little Shen He trotted over and said with a smile, "Master, you are finally back."

Mo Ran touched his disciple's head and said softly, "Well, you're back. It's so late, why don't you go to rest?"

"I want to wait for Master to come back before I go to sleep." Shen He blinked his round eyes, his voice soft, like cotton white clouds.

Mo Ran raised the corner of his mouth and said mischievously: "Come, Shen He, this is Grandma Alice, say hello."

This move was meant to kill the enemy, but unfortunately, the devil is always stronger than the good. Alice, who was following behind, suddenly said, "Hello, granddaughter. I am your master's mother! I just came to Liyue recently. I'm grateful for your guidance."

"Hello, grandma." Shen He didn't understand much, but he thought that this woman in her prime was really her master's mother, and he was very happy.

Mo Ran was really silent for a while, without saying a word, just quietly watching Alice talking nonsense, "Xiao Ran'er, I'm telling you, you can't leave the child alone at home, it's very unsafe! If something happens, it will be too late to regret it!"

"I have children, I've been through this, I know how to raise a child, you should pay more attention!"

Mo Ran rolled his eyes and said to himself, "Just because you left Klee in Mondstadt, I am much more competent than you!"

While he was chattering, Mo Ran prepared three bowls of noodles and brought them to the table. It was not that he did not want to make other dishes, but it was mainly because it was best not to eat food with too much oil or salt before going to bed, so a bowl of noodles with light soup would be enough to warm up the stomach and the body.

After Shen He finished eating, he followed his master's instructions and went back to rest, leaving the "mother and son" who had just "recognized" still at the table.

Alice saw the child leave and started to make a fuss again, "Hey, how about you be my son? It's a good deal!"

"No deal!" Mo Ran refused.

"Don't be so hasty to refuse. Isn't there an old saying in Liyue that a skilled person is a teacher, and a wealthy person is like a parent? I have these technological creations, so isn't that considered rich?"

Mo Ran twitched his lips again, "The first half of the sentence is true, but what kind of heresy is that in the latter part? Also, what's the connection? Who would recognize someone as their son the moment they meet?"

"It's not like we just met!"

Mo Ran added slowly: "Less than a day."

"Well, it seems a little fast indeed. However, I don't know where the word fate comes from or where it ends. Maybe I came to Liyue just to recognize you as my son?"

"I..." Mo Ran knew he was in the wrong, so he stopped arguing. He thought that too much talk would lead to mistakes, and he didn't believe that if he kept silent, the elf would continue talking.

"Hey, don't be silent! This is not fun." Alice pouted her thin lips, and came up with an idea. She said with a smile: "Come on, speak up and call me mom again, and I will consider it as a contract fulfilled. You won't lose out."

"Still not talking? Then I'll take it as your agreement! The contract is done, breaking your promise..."

"I won't agree!"

After a moment of silence, Alice continued, "Now that you've spoken, the contract is complete. Haha, good son!"

Mo Ran was stunned. He was in a hurry just now and didn't think too much. Now that he calmed down and thought about it, it seemed that no matter what he did, he would lose money and be the one being taken advantage of.
