[Genshin Impact]: I can become stronger by cooking

Page 81

A bright light flashed by, and a white jade bowl was filled with bright tea.

Chao Ke took the white teapot from the box, poured the bowl of [Enlightenment Tea Across Time and Space] into it without leaving a drop, then walked down with it and handed it to the old man.

"Mr. Zhongli, this is my special tea. Please drink it as soon as possible."

"I accept your kindness, my friend. I will definitely savor it carefully."

Chapter 101 [Chains of the World]

Zhongli's figure flashed several times and stopped in a house in Liyue Harbor.

Pushing open the door, Zhongli entered.

There was a set of fine tea sets on the shelf in the room. Zhongli took out a teacup and placed it on the table.

There is no need to clean it. Zhongli just strokes it gently and the dust on the teacup is gently removed.

After pouring himself a cup of tea given by Chao Ke, Zhongli silently activated his magic power.

A ray of light flew out from the secret box hidden in the house and landed in Zhongli's hand.

The slowly rotating object is the token that the Demon God of Dust gave to Zhongli after his death - the [Chain of Dust].

[Chains of the World] turned slightly, and Zhongli's gaze seemed to have crossed thousands of years.

In the past, on the field where glazed lilies bloomed, he first met the girl with big sleeves.

“Here,” the girl said, handing over the [Lock of the World].

"This is a token of the covenant between you and me, and it is also my challenge to you."

"I have hidden all my wisdom in this stone lock..."

Thinking about it now, she was really stupid back then.

There is no formal contract...

Obviously, they are just colleagues who care about themselves...

But it is this "stupidity" that anchors myself.

Now it seems that communicating with oneself in such a direct manner is a kind of wisdom.

"..."

After the two demons formed an alliance, the humans under their rule were able to integrate and build an extremely large city.

"I thought, since the difference in strength between you and me is so great, I should use my skills and wisdom."

"With your strength and my brains... this city would be amazing."

The result was exactly as Gui Zhong said. Under the guidance of her technology and wisdom, these little people created such a brilliant civilization.

[Chains of the World] turned and turned, and the following story was the past that Zhongli was most reluctant to recall.

"It seems that I still can't go on with you."

"Forget about the lock..."

In the end, he smiled somewhat dejectedly, and slowly turned into tiny dust and disappeared.

"This is the token of our covenant, and also my challenge to you."

"I have hidden all my wisdom in this stone lock"

"If I could unlock it..."

For many years after that incident, Morax kept the Midgard Chains in his possession.

It was as if he had buried this deep wear and tear deep in his heart, with the dust of time covering its surface until the day when his intellect faded and he would completely forget it.

Zhongli took a big sip of tea.

If things develop as I expected, it seems to be a good choice.

But, that noon.

The girl said, "Mr. Zhongli, you are so knowledgeable. Have you ever heard of [Chains of the World]?"

The historical dust that Zhongli had filled in the worn areas over the years was swept away in one go.

The past events and words in that memory suddenly reappeared clearly in his life.

The tea in the cup was finished, and Zhongli poured himself another pot of tea.

It seems strange and absurd.

The past between him and Gui Zhong spanned more than a thousand years, but it was suddenly mentioned by a foreign girl, and this girl seemed to be learning the ancient mechanical art of Liyue.

Judging from his later movements, it seems that he still wants to restore it, no, he wants to create a [Lock of the World] that carries his own wisdom and give it to his lover as a gift.

While Zhongli was recalling the painful past, he also felt that this incident was quite strange...

As a token of the covenant between him and Guizhong, and Guizhong's expression of his challenge to him, this [Lock of the World] would actually be used to witness love one day...

From the perspective of universal rationality, this is quite absurd.

Zhongli drank another cup of tea, and there was not much tea left in the pot.

As the recipient of the original [Chains of the Middle Ages], Morax can be sure that this token was originally used to witness the covenant between the two demons, not love.

And he and Guizhong were not lovers.

Looking at the [Chains of the World] still slowly spinning in his hand, Zhongli remained silent.

At least not at first...

But, expressing love, to some extent, may also be a kind of covenant, a contract.

Zhongli emptied the teapot given by Chao Ke, and even the last bit of tea entered the teacup.

Tilt your head back and swallow it in one gulp.

Since it is a kind of covenant and a kind of contract, then as the god of contract, Morax naturally has the obligation to maintain the effectiveness of this contract.

For this reason, Zhongli did not hesitate to sit back on the throne which he had slowly left, even if there was a risk of delaying his own plan.

With amber as the base,

Using the authority held by Morax as a seal,

Every cut, every moment.

Stroke by stroke,

Take away a trace of Morax's authority;

This is the work of the ancient Liyue ancestor, the founder of the Thousand Rocks defensive formation, and represents the pinnacle of Liyue's defensive mechanical arts.

They were all carved into that stone plate.

The [Jade Shield] that pops out when the holder is hit is enough to resist the full force of the demon.

That was the blow he failed to block for Gui Zhong...

Since you chose to send [Chains of the World] as a contract.

Since you chose to conclude this contract on the land of Liyue.

Then, I, the Demon God [Morax], will acknowledge that the contract you have concluded is valid!

And I will guarantee it with my power!

That night.

Zhongli drank the [Enlightenment Tea that Travels Through Time and Space] and became drunk.

The next day.

[Chains of the Dust World] was opened, and the information left behind by the Demon God of Dust was finally known by Zhongli.

This time, the deep wear and tear on the ancient rock was truly filled.

------------------

A few more days passed.

Falushan followed Chao Ke, walked through the Huacheng City, stepped out of the Daocheng Forest, and crossed the Tianbi Pool.

The outline of her hometown appeared before Falushan's eyes again.

When I think about it carefully, it has only been a few months since I left Xumi, but the stories that happened during this period are too...exciting.

It was so wonderful that Falushan will never forget it in her life.

We spent a few days together in the city.

Another farewell banquet was set up.

【True and Ultimate Ancient Coconut Charcoal Cake】

【True and Ultimate Golden Shrimp Balls】

【True and Ultimate Big Golden Chicken】

【True and Ultimate.....】

Chao Ke tried his best, and perhaps it was the emotions at the time of separation that made Chao Ke vaguely grasp the true heart of being a chef.

All the dishes produced have surpassed the category of "Ultimate Level" and received a full score of 100.

That is, [true and ultimate XXX].

Plate after plate of delicious food was placed before my eyes, emitting an especially tempting aroma.

But at this moment, Falushan had difficulty mustering an appetite. She stood up silently and walked behind Chao Ke.
