Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

As if seeing through Wang Chen's thoughts, Ryan patted his shoulder again and said, "Don't worry too much. If the sky collapses, there are seven gods to support it. And the Wing Master also said that someone will solve the border problem."

That’s right, even if one or two of them are a little unreliable, if there really is an invasion by foreign enemies, the Seven Gods will definitely protect their people, right?

There are also the throne and justice. I don’t know what’s going on with the throne, and justice has been sleeping for five hundred years and still doesn’t care about anything. I really want to kick her in the ass with the adventurer’s standard waterproof boots to wake her up!

Thinking about this, Wang Chen thought of a new question: "Speaking of which, after knowing the border, has no one thought of going outside the border to take a look?"

Ryan looked at him deeply, a faint smile appeared on his face again, and a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes: "Yes, of course!"

"But if there are monsters like the Four Heavenly Kings of Combat Hunters everywhere, how can we dare to go out? Only after we have figured out their details, understood the situation of the outside world, and have enough self-protection ability, can we be ready to set off.

"After talking about so many heavy topics, let's talk about something healthy, sunny and positive. The only purpose of the organization is: for a better tomorrow.

“Maybe it will take the next five hundred years, or maybe the next five thousand years, but no matter how long it takes, as long as it can be passed down from generation to generation, we can destroy the Abyss, destroy the Battle Hunters, and destroy all the evil forces that will endanger our normal lives. These goals will definitely be achieved.

"The same applies to stepping beyond the borders of Teyvat. As long as it is for a better tomorrow, the organization will pursue it."

For a better tomorrow?... It's a very similar concept to 'fighting for all the good in the world'.

Wang Chen was a little terrified. What Ryan said was too noble. He was like Yugong, who was willing to devote thousands of years for a goal.

Yugong is respectable, but not everyone is willing to be that person.

He hesitated and spoke: "But I joined the organization just to use the organization's intelligence to seek revenge. To be honest, I am just an ordinary person. I must admit that I am an ordinary person. I have never cared about the world. I only think about my relatives and friends."

"But aren't you also working for a better tomorrow?" Ryan scratched his head awkwardly. It was the first time he encountered this. The organization's standard welcome chicken soup actually hit the newcomers so hard.

After thinking for a while, he said:

"The organization is not looking for saints. A saint is someone who can work hard for the goal of 'caring about the world' and can persist no matter what difficulties they encounter.

"The organization recruits ordinary people, not just 'ordinary people' like you, but also real ordinary people, ordinary people who don't have the eyes of God, don't have a high or low position, and don't have much ability.

“Many participants in a long-term goal do not actually know how and when it will be achieved. They all come together because of some common and reasonable desires, and then use legitimate means to achieve it.

“When everyone’s desires are fulfilled, the organization’s goals are achieved.

"Instead of holding everyone to the standards of a saint from the beginning, wouldn't it be more motivating and easier to persevere if we start from our own interests? As long as it is for a better tomorrow and as long as you have not fallen into darkness, there is no doubt that you are a member of the organization."

"Uncle...I didn't expect you to say something like this."

Ryan glared at him: "What do you mean, little brat?"

"Don't worry about it. As an intelligence organization, how can I obtain the intelligence I want?"

"Come with me."

Just when Wang Chen thought that the organization had some secret base, Ryan took him back to the Adventurers Association.

"Pay attention to this commission." Ryan whispered.

It was a limited-time commission, limited to one day, and the commission task was to 'investigate the price fluctuations of cattle in Inazuma Market', and the commission reward was 5000 Mora.

This number is already considered top-tier among commissions that do not require combat, but many adventurers secretly cursed after seeing it.

Even if Inazuma didn't lock down the country, it would have taken more than a day to go back and forth. The one-day time limit clearly meant they didn't want people to complete it.

However, the Adventurer's Guild does not restrict commissions like this that cannot be completed.

"Outrageous..." Is there really someone who would send such a request? Could it be Ryan?

Wang Chen glanced at the client's position. The name displayed there was anonymous, so he turned his head to look at Ryan, confirming with his eyes.

"Look carefully." This was the only answer I got.

Wang Chen read the commission form carefully from top to bottom again. Within the border formed by the complex floral pattern of the standard format commission form, the four main contents of the commission task, commission remuneration, commission conditions, and principal all stood obediently on the steps they belonged to. Except for the fact that the commission content was a little strange, there was no other special meaning.

Forced by Ryan's words, he swept his eyes to the place below that belonged to the supplementary description of the commissioned task. Those places were blank, with only monotonous horizontal lines with equal spacing. Following the stairs down, between the last step and the first frame of flowers, he saw a row of very small numbers.

Looking to the side, not all order forms have such numbers. There are hundreds of order forms on the entire order board, but only a dozen of them have such numbers.

After noticing that Wang Chen noticed it, Ryan returned to the previous alley.

"The organization's information is basically based on the adventurer's commission board. People generally publish time-limited or unlimited commissions anonymously, which indicates whether the content or demand they publish is time-limited or not."

"The commission must contain a 'code word' - a deviation value, and the real information is in digital form - or in the form of 'cipher text' written at the bottom of the commission.

"You don't have to ask Catherine to help you post the commission. You can fill out the commission form yourself, but you must apply to Catherine before putting it on the commission board. This will help the Adventurer's Association supervise the payment of rewards, and when someone accepts or completes the commission, they can know who the client is.

"This is how we communicate within the organization. Do you understand?"

Wang Chen nodded.

"'Cryptography' refers to the pages of a book called the Teyvat Universal Dictionary, a book that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

"Each number in the 'ciphertext' is a page number. Most of the time, there are many words on a page of the dictionary, but their pronunciations are similar. After the whole sentence is deciphered, you need to adjust the meaning of the sentence yourself.

"The 'codeword' is a series of ten constantly changing words that represent the numbers from 0 to 9, which are the deviation values ​​of the page number represented by the 'ciphertext'. For example, the 'ciphertext' 1 originally refers to page 1 of the dictionary. After adding a 'codeword' with a deviation value of 5, you should look for it on pages 1+5 of the dictionary instead of page 1.

“Do you understand this?”

Wang Chen still nodded. As a programmer in his previous life, he had seen many encryption methods that were much more complicated than this.

The North Wing's ciphertext encryption method and the security mechanism of Teyvat's bank account are actually not very secure.

But there is no absolutely secure encryption mechanism in the world. Theoretically, brute force cracking can crack all passwords, keys, and ciphertexts. It is just a matter of cost.

Therefore, even Wang Chen’s previous company had to regularly change a long string of randomly generated passwords to ensure the security of the passwords.

What worries Wang Chen even more is "social engineering". There was once a joke that the victim was asked to send a verification code in order to steal the account. This is social engineering, and it really exists.

To put it simply, if you control the victim and ask him for the password, you won't have to go to great lengths to crack it.

In this strange world, it is really easy to lose the life of an ordinary person.

If we are really being "socially engineered", we can only hope that every member of the North Wing has the quality of being willing to die rather than surrender. There is no other solution.

Since he couldn't solve it himself... Wang Chen stopped thinking about it and asked a more practical question: "What if you want to express a specific word but it's easy to get confused?"

"You can add a decimal point after the ciphertext. The number before the decimal point represents the page number, and the number after the decimal point represents the number of the page, so as to clearly point out a certain word."

"Indeed... Then there is only one last question left. What are the code words?"

Ryan uttered ten words in a row, and "awesome" ranked seventh among them, representing a deviation value of 7.

While getting the secret code, Wang Chen opened the "Teyvat Universal Dictionary" in his mind and deciphered the true meaning of the commission he had seen before: testing, help investigate the price fluctuations of cattle in the Inazuma market.

He looked at Ryan in confusion: "So the commission we just saw is really to investigate the price fluctuations of cattle?"

"Haha! 'Niu De' was just updated as a codeword a few days ago, so I thought of giving it a try. Wait, you can parse the ciphertext without a dictionary?!"

There are actually not many commonly used characters. After joining the organization for a long time, he can indeed memorize some of the characters represented by the secret codes, but Wang Chen is a real newcomer.

"I have a good memory. I memorized the Teyvat Universal Dictionary."

"Tsk tsk, young people nowadays are really amazing!"
