Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

Chapter 71 Sword Spirit

"Sugar's drug is quite potent. It's still effective even after so much time has passed."

Wang Chen waved the sword nervously, feeling the same as always, then selected the ice element and pressed it, and ice element particles floated out from the center of the sword guard.

"Hey! I'm talking to you!"

The voice appeared again.

"Does this thing cause auditory hallucinations every time I use it?"

"I'm hearing it, I'm hearing it! You're the one who's hearing it!"

Uh... Wang Chen looked at Albedo and Sucrose and found that they also had confused expressions.

"Did you hear that?"

The sugar chicken nodded like pecking at rice.

Albedo pondered and said: "Maybe... you created a life."

"What is creation! At best, it just awakened me!" The voice was excited.

"Could it be that I have developed an alchemical formula for creating life?"

"This remains to be verified. Maybe it's accidental for the alchemical materials, or maybe it's..." Albedo stared at Wang Chen deeply and said nothing more.

If creating life is such an easy thing, then alchemical life forms would have been running all over the place long ago. As an alchemical life form, Albedo knows the difficulty better than anyone else.

"Hey! Don't ignore me!"

"Who are you?" Wang Chen raised the sword and shook it to see if it would be dizzy.

"Hmph! I am a spirit stone that was born and raised by nature. It has been a hundred thousand years since I was born. I have been exposed to the sun, wind, rain and thunder. Although I have a vague will, I have not yet awakened. Later, I was taken away and made into a sword embryo. When it came into your hands, it finally took this shape. After being nourished by the seven elements, I was able to speak."

"One hundred thousand years? Is that true? Don't brag."

"Humph! I've suffered more than you've eaten."

“Is this comparable?”

"Oh! Anyway, I'm pretty good."

The sword lowered his voice meaninglessly and said, "For example, I know all your little secrets very well."

Albedo, who heard it clearly, had a strange look on his face. Everyone has some little secrets that cannot be told, but the weapon he carries with him every day is actually spying on everything. Who can stand this?

Wang Chen's heart skipped a beat. If this sword really had intelligence, then it had seen all of his privacy. This was the second thing that violated his privacy after Alice's bracelet...

Why is it like this in the other world?

Moreover, the voice of the sword was from a woman. Thinking of this, Wang Chen felt even more embarrassed.

He brought the sword in front of him and threatened in a vicious tone: "You've been spying on me all day, right? Be careful or I'll kill you~"

"Oh! Look how scared you are! You are my master, how could I do anything to harm you? I promise with my sword that I will be absolutely loyal to you!"

"Wow, you are quite eloquent." Wang Chen held his sword horizontally in front of him and observed him carefully. "Do you feel unwell now? Don't break like the test subject just now."

"Hey! That's just the beginning. I'm in good health. The function you want has been realized, and I can also tell you how many times the energy injected into my body can be used. Well... if it's one element particle at a time, each element can be used thousands of times."

Injected into you? Don't you think that's a weird thing to say?

However, Wang Chen felt relieved. Although the Wentian Sword had the side effect of being able to speak, the "Portable Element Particle Generator" was successfully produced.

The afternoon was already halfway over, and there was still an hour left before the Knights got off work.

There was only one portion of the materials Wang Chen had prepared left. Albedo divided it into several smaller portions, trying to replicate Wang Chen's alchemy results.

"In theory, the amount of alchemical materials can be varied to a certain extent. Even with this amount, as long as the alchemical formula is correct, the same effect can be achieved."

However, before he was sure, he didn't dare to use four-star weapons as materials. He just wanted to try to make that kind of magic crystal pocket watch.

Under Wang Chen's guidance, he tried the luck-changing ritual and the ritual that Wang Chen had fiddled with, but both ended in explosion.

Wang Chen operated it himself again, and it also exploded.

"...Perhaps this alchemical formula has a minimum requirement for the amount of materials...I'll pay for it myself, and the three of us will split up and try to purchase the materials as quickly as possible. Five portions will be enough this time."

After confirming the two materials that each person was responsible for, the three of them set off at the same time.

After buying the materials he was responsible for, Albedo went into an empty alley. After closing his eyes, his body disappeared from here and reappeared on the second floor of the laboratory.

Shatang and Wang Chen downstairs had not returned yet, so he closed his eyes again and took in the entire first floor of the laboratory as the alchemy space. He searched it inside and out, even the flowing elements in the air were not missed.

"..."

More than ten minutes later, all five materials were ready. Following Albedo's advice, Wang Chen tried it first. Now all the conditions were exactly the same as when he made the magic crystal pocket watch before.

The result was still an explosion. I did it twice in a row and both times it exploded.

"What's going on? Once the materials are placed into the magic crystal block, it explodes. It wasn't like this before."

Albedo tried it again twice, and Sucrose tried it once, and there were no exceptions.

Albedo frowned and was silent for a long time before saying, "Forget it. Maybe this alchemy formula... has a time requirement."

"Is there a time requirement?" Sugar had never heard of this kind of alchemical ritual.

"Exclude all the impossible, and whatever remains, no matter how incredible, is the truth."

Albedo had never encountered an alchemical formula that required time, but after Wang Chen personally operated it, the only variable in the entire experiment became time.

Feeling the scabbard vibrating, Wang Chen pulled out the Wentian Sword.

"Humph! I've already said that the master was able to succeed before because of my special characteristics."

"Stop it, the magic crystal pocket watches I made the last two times have nothing to do with you."

"Humph! Having me by your side is the biggest influence."

"Then why do I fail now?"

"Uh! That's because... I don't know either."

Wang Chen discovered that this sword spirit was very talkative. It had basically never stopped talking since its birth.

"You're such a stickler, I have two ugly names for you, 'Stubborn' and 'Chatterbox', why don't you pick one?"

"Humph! Why? Didn't you name your sword Wentian? My name is Wentian, Wentian Wentian Wentian."

Good man, you have been spying on me for a long time...

"Shh!" Wang Chen covered the sword guard awkwardly, trying to block the sound of the sword spirit, but unfortunately the sword spirit had no vocal organs.

Although Sucrose and Albedo didn't react to the name, Wang Chen was already dipping his toes into the ground. In his opinion, this name was very childish, right?

"Can I give you a nicer name? Stop calling me that!"

"Humph! My name is Wentian Wentian Wentian Wentian Wentian..."

The voice is so nice, but the mind is like that of a child. Wang Chen shook his head and put the Wentian Sword into the scabbard, and the voice suddenly became smaller.

"Alice in Wonderland will be released in a few days. I'll give you a few copies." After saying hello to Albedo and Sucrose, Wang Chen hurriedly left the laboratory.

Seeing that there were not many people around, he dared to take the sword with the scabbard in his hand, and whispered stealthily to the Wentian Sword: "You can call me Wentian, but we have to keep a low profile. I will give you a nickname, how about Xiaowen?"

"Humph!"

"You have a bad habit, you have to stop."

"Humph! This is the only way I can express my dissatisfaction with not being able to speak for so long. Now that I can speak, I can say whatever I want."

"It's just that I'm kindhearted. If you showed up at someone else's house, I don't know how many meals of bamboo-crusted fried pork you'd have to eat."

"Hey! I'm not a little brat. I'm much older than you. The Seven Gods have to call me senior when they see me!"

"The premise is that I can pull the Seven Gods to you, right?"

"Ha! I'm really big and mature."

"Where is it bigger?" Wang Chen couldn't help but ask.

“…Everywhere is huge!”

"Haha, I think you don't understand at all."

"Humph! I know too much and I don't want to argue with you. Actually, I can do it too, 'Master~ Let me sleep in the same bed with you tonight~'"

"vomit--"

The sound of the clip gave Wang Chen goose bumps all over his body, and he almost vomited the food he had eaten the night before.

"You are a sword."

"Humph! What's wrong with the sword? Do you look down on it?"

"You definitely don't know Xu Xian and Ning Caichen."
