Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

Chapter 61: The Treasure Thieves

Legend has it that the roots of all the silvery ancient trees and silvery flowers are secretly connected deep in the earth, and the traces of their connection draw the trajectory of the earth's veins.

In simple terms, the earth vein flowers and the dead trees in the talent secret realm and the holy relic secret realm are all related to the earth veins.

The embodiment of physical strength in Genshin Impact - Primal Resin, can activate petrified ancient trees and earth vein flowers to obtain secret treasures.

Wang Chen had never seen the flower of the earth veins, nor had he seen the pure resin. Only the petrified ancient tree in the secret realm was still there.

But he never expected that the secret realm of the holy relics would turn out like this.

Although I don't need the original resin anymore, but I can only use it once a day? It's not as good as the original resin set.

Outside the secret realm, there was still blue sky, white clouds and a bright sun. Wang Chen's eyes suddenly felt a little uncomfortable under such bright sunlight, while Bennett and Fischl both skillfully closed their eyes and left the secret realm.

"Where do we meet tomorrow?" Wang Chen asked, covering his eyes.

"It's right here at the activity center of this princess' back garden."

"where?"

"It's the Adventurer's Guild. It's quite close to the city gate. The time is set to 8:30?" Bennett explained.

"Oh, see you tomorrow then."

Fischl spread his wings of wind and flew away to the west. Bennett seemed to be going east, but Wang Chen didn't know where he was going. He really didn't expect to spend so little time in the secret realm.

He asked Bennett, "Aren't you two going to act together?"

"Fischl and I are not in the same adventuring group. We only help each other during special operations. Come to think of it...it's been a while since I went on an adventure with my friends from the Benny Adventure Group."

"..."

Is it possible that members of your group have already jumped ship?

Wang Chen didn't reveal the secret, but asked curiously, "Where's Fischl? Which adventure group is she from?"

"She, she founded her own 'Night Patrol', but because she didn't recruit enough members, it was not recognized by the Adventurer's Guild."

"An adventure group... three adventurers can form one, right? Fischl has the Eye of God, so how could there be no one to form one?"

"She doesn't seem to care much. Is it just for the title? I don't really understand."

Bennett tilted his head and thought, then asked, "What about you? Do you have an adventure group?"

"No, I want to travel around Teyvat, so it's not convenient for me to team up with others."

"I see. Whatever commission you accepted, I have to go do it too. If it's not convenient, we can only separate here."

"Hey~"

Under Bennett's clear and bright eyes, Wang Chen couldn't help but complain: "I've been practicing swordsmanship recently and haven't taken many commissions. I wanted to brush holy relics and accumulate practical experience at the same time, but who knows..."

He spread his hands helplessly.

"You want to practice, isn't it appropriate to accept a commission?"

"Forehead……"

Seeing that Wang Chen had something to hide, Bennett thought that this was Wang Chen's first time in a secret realm and he might not have the experience to try it actively, so he said, "Maybe I can practice with you when I'm free. I also use a one-handed sword."

"May I?"

In reality, everyone has their own things to do every day. Like Kaia, although he looks like he is just wandering around, he has to do his official duties.

As for Ying...during this period of time, she was probably doing role tasks and improving favorability with other people every day, so Wang Chen couldn't find her anyway.

"Of course! If you're willing, I'll be free in the afternoon after I finish the commission!"

"What commissions have you accepted? I'll work with you. It's a good opportunity to meet some subjugation commissions as well."

"Let me see... The closest one is on the east side of Qingquan Town. The commission said that a group of treasure hunters would gather there this morning. There is also a commission to escort a hot air balloon nearby."

Bennett took out the map that came with the adventure certificate, on which were marked in pencil the approximate locations of some commissioned locations.

"I'll lead the way."

Relying on the wings of wind and elemental power, the two of them quickly traveled through the mountains and woods, and it took them about forty minutes to reach their destination.

Although he didn't know who issued the commission to crack down on treasure-stealing gangs, Bennett said the information provided was very accurate and there had never been any mistakes.

Sure enough, on a rocky slope against the mountain wall, ten treasure-hunting gangs were sitting around a campfire, some were roasting sunset fruits, and some were drinking.

It looked like they were having a picnic, but when you got closer, you could tell their conversation was anything but serious.

A crossbowman from the treasure-stealing group, whose right eye was stained purple by a beating, said solemnly, "The group of merchants we encountered yesterday were very cunning. They actually asked adventurers to disguise themselves as ordinary people to escort the goods. Fortunately, we have superb martial arts skills and managed to eat a piece of his goods."

The burly man with a crew cut sitting across from him was not to be outdone: "We tracked a carriage carrying food yesterday, but it was robbed by the Hilliards. These days, people are really inferior to Hilliards... But we persisted and drove away that large group of Hilliards! It's a pity that only these low-quality wines are left out of so much cargo..."

The accomplices of both men kept boasting and echoing them.

There was another strong man leaning against the mountain wall with a sledgehammer beside him. He had a gloomy face and did not speak, just drinking alone.

The ten men were divided into three teams, with the sharpshooter and boxer who spoke earlier each leading two people.

Although Sledgehammer knew that the Archer's team was badly beaten and the only thing they had eaten was a bag of Sunset Fruits, he also knew that the Boxer's team had only snatched the remaining goods after the main group of Hillilians left.

But he has three people under him, and they haven't opened for business for two days.

He was speechless, but just guzzled the bitter, low-quality wine, and drank a mouthful of over-roasted, burnt sunset fruit. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

"damn it!"

He threw the empty bottle of wine away with force, and the sound of the glass bottle exploding startled the others.

The three teams were old acquaintances and knew each other well. They naturally knew what he was angry about and did not dare to speak loudly for a while.

He threw the branches with the sundown fruit into the fire again, and then called out the name of a man, the only pharmacist in his team, and the only pharmacist among the ten men.

"Boss, five portions of Fiery Essential Oil and Heat-Resistant Potion are ready."

He nodded in satisfaction, then looked around at the other eight brothers and said, "Shall we do something big together?"

The other two small leaders naturally heard about the potion and became curious. The sharpshooter asked, "What about the money for the potion?"

"Humph, of course we won't let you pay, but our team will take 60% of the harvest when the time comes."

"Hey, do you have a goal?"

"I have been keeping an eye on a caravan from the Kingdom of Winter for many days. The goods they are carrying are obviously very valuable, but they always take a sparsely populated route, and they only have five guards."

"Isn't this what it is?"

"What?"

"Zou Si? Right."

"That's called smuggling, and judging by their behavior, it's a bit like that."

The boxer interrupted the discussion: "What about the time?"

"Tomorrow night."

"it is good!"

The treasure-stealing group suddenly became happy, but then two dark clouds fell from the sky.

"You are planning to do something bad again. I was thinking of dispersing you, but it seems I have no choice but to teach you a lesson." Bennett showed a rare look of anger.

"Where did you come from, little brat? Get out of here."

Several treasure-hunting groups didn't take Bennett seriously at all and laughed.

As he was laughing, the sharpshooter sitting in front of Bennett's left saw the Eye of God on his left waist and couldn't laugh anymore.

"Ahem, how about we talk it out?" The sharpshooter looked back at the man holding the sledgehammer, and then he realized that all four of them had gloomy faces. Could it be...

"Talk to him for nothing, use the potion! I'm going to get my revenge today!"

The pharmacist took out the fire essential oil and heat-resistant potion with great pain. Other pharmacists used these things to throw and attack, but what they had prepared was originally intended to make money, but now they were going to be wasted here.

Sledgehammer uncorked the bottle and applied the fire essential oil to the hammer.

"You guys let me down so much."

Bennett rushed forward without unsheathing his sword, and started beating up the men who hadn't gotten the potion yet. He first knocked two of them to the ground, making them cry out in pain.

Their voices were quite loud, but they were unwilling to stand up again.

Several meat shields in the rear drank fire-retardant potions, and those who carried weapons smeared essential oils on their weapons, and dispersed to prepare for battle.

Wang Chen was watching the battle from behind at first, and saw that the fireproof potion gave them a thin layer of elemental power to protect their bodies, while the blazing fire essential oil enchanted the weapons with fire attributes.

But unfortunately, maybe it's because of the poor quality of the potion, or maybe it's only effective to this extent, the fireproof potion will become ineffective after two attacks at most. The essential oil enchantment can be used a few more times, but the effect will not last too long.

It’s better to practice qigong honestly.

Wang Chen also joined the battle. He used a wind vortex sword to pull in three treasure-stealing group meat shields. The three were at a loss at first. After being sucked to Wang Chen's side, they began to try to fight in close combat. However, they were pushed out by Wang Chen's wind pressure sword and fell to the ground.

The already thin elemental force defense was already in danger. As a result, they still wanted to stand up, but Wang Chen hit them a few more times, so they could only continue rolling on the ground.

Bennett was surrounded by several people and knocked down two people who only had mediocre kung fu, so only three small leaders were left standing.

The man holding the hammer was obviously very good at martial arts, and he was fighting back and forth with Bennett, who didn't use elemental power. The boxer and the sharpshooter were waiting for an opportunity to make a move nearby, and were spotted by Wang Chen.

"It is also quite valuable to defeat the opponent without causing serious injury to him."

Wang Chen dodged the crossbow arrows while wielding the scabbard in close combat with the boxer. After more than twenty moves, he had used up all the enchantments on their crossbows and boxing gloves. Seeing that Bennett had also finished the battle, he defeated them with a sense of unsatisfaction.
