Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

Samel continued, "By the way, do you remember what happened to Yufi? Haha, you haven't forgotten, have you?"

"It's okay, even if you've forgotten, I'll have many chances to help you remember..."

Zhebolele looked on with a somber expression... no, he always seemed to have this expression.

Having a somber and indifferent expression has its advantages, namely that ordinary people cannot discern his inner thoughts because he always has this expression.

Whether in the story or outside of it, Zeborele listened silently without any overreaction.

Samel, however, whether it was because he had the assistance of the Fools or because he was confident in his own strength, actually decided to make a move.

It wasn't just about taking action; he even said he'd get the traveler, that 'kid,' to join in too.

He probably didn't know that the little girl in front of him was old enough to be his great-grandmother.

If you fight her, you might really end up meeting your great-grandmother.

The last time we saw someone yelling at travelers like this, it was when they became a stragglers of the gods. What, you've become a god too?

Chapter 766 Samel is defeated, but there is no cutscene.

The traveler's fighting prowess was truly extraordinary; once the fight broke out, Samel and the others were dumbfounded.

[Samel: "I didn't expect you to be one step ahead this time..."]

He ran away after uttering a harsh threat, and the fools who followed him are probably cursing him out. Why did you provoke him?

You and Geborele are old acquaintances, and so are we and the Traveler. You keep making sarcastic remarks, how dare we say anything?

Why didn't you ask us before you did it? Now you regret it, don't you?

Traveler: Spend the rest of your life repenting for your choices.

If it were just Tirzad and Jade, with the help of the Fools, the outcome would be uncertain.

But you actually asked 'that brat over there' for help? Don't you know she's a farmer?

'Plowing the field' refers to the fact that not long ago, he used the grass dragon's body as a field to plow it. He didn't have any special skills, but he had plenty of strength.

Samel probably didn't know the traveler's strength; if he did, he would have changed his tune and said, "The brat I'm talking about is Tirzad's daughter."

Actually, this might not work, because although Jade looks cute and innocent, her fighting power should not be underestimated.

I'm afraid they'll eventually target Paimon; she's the easiest to bully.

Every time I try to bully Paimon, it triggers the Traveler's protective mode, so I might as well just choose the Traveler.

After witnessing the traveler's strength, Tirzad in the story suddenly became bolder and now even dares to yell at Jeborele.

[Tirzad shouted: "Hey, Jeberleil, you...you'd better make yourselves clear this time, or we're parting ways right now!"]

Why did he dare to say that? Naturally, it was because he had also hired travelers, so even if he parted ways with Zeborele, he would still have travelers to protect him.

This is the confidence that the traveler's combat prowess gives him.

Tirzad continued, "That man named Samel doesn't look like a kind person at all... He calls you, and even Jade, so affectionately. Could it be... you're in cahoots with them?"

"I knew it... I knew it! When the commission was posted, you accepted it without asking for details, all because you had it planned all along, right?"

Tirzad's questioning seemed somewhat amusing to the audience.

Were they in cahoots? Could it be that all that fighting just now was a ruse?

And can their conversation be described as intimate? Isn't it clearly sarcastic and insinuating?

However, Tirzad thought differently. He believed that it was all a ruse, and even thought that Jade was being deceived to make the scheme seem more real.

So what was the purpose of doing this? Tirzad provided the answer:

"You and Samel had planned this all along, intending to deceive me, a naive and inexperienced scholar, into solving your mystery!"

The audience found the simple, unsophisticated scholar amusing, and his self-awareness was certainly accurate.

That's why people don't dislike him; his remarks are hilarious, quirky in a unique way, and so funny.

That said, you think they're trying to trick you into solving the mystery, but the question is, what mystery have you actually solved along the way?

The worst off in this group is Tirzad; at least the two Mondstadt merchants ensured logistical support.

However, he was also the most confident. One can only wonder how he maintained such a unique persona so stably.

[Tirzad was still warning the travelers: "Paimon! And other travelers! Wake up! I was fooled by them because of my kindness and gullibility. Don't let them deceive you."]

The audience laughed, saying, "What do you mean by 'kindness'?"

If there were even the slightest problem with his remarks, people would want to criticize them.

But if it's all problems, everyone will just think it's funny, and that would be hilarious.

The audience didn't feel angry, and even the attacked Jeborele wasn't upset.

However, he wasn't angry not because he found it funny, but simply because he didn't like to defend himself; he truly was 'the betrayer of Sand'.

Jeborele finally revealed some details of his past, such as that he had once been a member of 'Thutmose,' that he did know Samel, and that Jade's mother had died at the hands of the other party.

[Zebler: "Your mother... was also a scholar. If it weren't for me, she would have had a much brighter future... at least she wouldn't have lost her life so young..."]

It's clear that Jeborelle felt somewhat guilty and even inferior when discussing Jade's mother.

He blamed himself for not protecting her and felt unworthy of her.

Now everyone was even more certain that he was the wild boy Tirzad had mentioned who had kidnapped his relatives... and now he was the old man.

Jade naturally believed in her father. She was smart enough to know that the key to the problem wasn't with her father, but rather with that sleazy Samel on the other side.

Samel's goal is probably the hidden treasure here, so he kidnapped Benben. His next target is probably the stone tablet, according to Jade's analysis.

After listening to Jade's analysis, Tirzad breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, he had already given the stone tablet to the traveler. Now he should be safe, right?

As for the traveler's safety? She's fine; she's very resilient.

[Zebler then cautioned: "Not only the stone tablet, but also your wisdom, all the knowledge you possess as a scholar, is coveted by him."]

Whether out of concern for his brother-in-law or not, Zheberler acknowledged the other's wisdom.

[Tirzad breaks down: "I...I don't want to be in demand in a place like this!"]

Everyone was amused by Tirzad again, saying he was quite funny.

I used to dislike him, but the more I watched him, the more I found him to be a great source of amusement.

However, there are still people who dislike him, probably because they hate stupidity.

You might say Tirzad is stupid, but he's not the kind of stupid who's not very bright. He's the kind of stupid who thinks based on his own position and whose brain only follows the dictates of books.

Sino's lame jokes didn't lower everyone's opinion of the Sumerian people; it was Tirzad's stupidity and bookishness that made everyone think the Sumerian scholars were incompetent.

Fortunately, there were positive examples like Elhesen and Tinari in the previous stories, otherwise everyone would think that Sumeru scholars were all bookworms.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that all those intelligent scholars are outdoor scholars?

Tinari is in the rainforest every day, Farusan is trapped while investigating ancient ruins, and can you guess where Elhesen is?

The representative of the intelligent scholars in the indoor school seems to be Laila, but Laila also gives people a silly feeling, but her sillyness is cute.

Unlike Tirzad in the story, who, despite his limited academic ability, insisted on his own opinions and refused to accept other viewpoints.

“I prefer reading in the library, but sometimes things outside are more interesting.”

Chapter 767 Taking Turns Detonating Thunder

The movie continued, and the stone slab in the traveler's hand moved up another level, stamping the tourist attractions inside the Red King's Tomb. Now it was the turn of the attractions 'below' the Red King's Tomb.

Within the 'attractions' below, there is naturally something worth seeing: a holographic map.

This is Red King Technology! It's so impressive, even has holographic projection.

The stone slab was upgraded again, with some new symbols added. The travelers asked Tirzad about the meaning of these symbols, since he was a scholar.

Didn't you say you were very smart? Even Samel is trying to steal your wisdom.

However, Tirzad didn't quite understand it. He thought these were words praising the Red King and whitewashing his rule.

He himself felt this was a reasonable deduction, because as a scholar, he would also embellish his own papers.

"But that's probably the extent to which they'll only include a few perfunctory lines in the acknowledgments of a thesis," Tirzad said.

"Besides, that's just a self-deprecating excuse; no one in academia would actually think they're ignorant and incompetent."

【“…”】

As he spoke, Tirzad fell silent, for his words had struck a nerve.

His academic work had been useless all along; he had only been stubbornly arguing. Now, as he spoke these words, it felt like he was talking about himself, and he was starting to lose his composure.

The audience laughed out loud, saying they couldn't bring themselves to dislike him; he was practically a virtual pet.

I used to really dislike him, but he's so 'stupid' that it's impossible to find a reason to criticize him; it's just something to watch for amusement now.

He's bad at fighting, bad at finding his way around, bad at communicating, and now that he's finally faced with an academic problem, he still can't understand it. To put it politely, isn't he just useless?

It seems that Al Heisenberg was right: reading doesn't make people smarter, it only increases a person's knowledge.

That is, Nasita will become 'smarter' by consuming experience books.

No wonder Clash of Clans tabletop role-playing games calculate Intelligence and Education attributes separately; it makes perfect sense.

However, at least now Tirzad is starting to listen to Zeborelle's words and is no longer so stubborn, which is an improvement.

[Tirzad argued: "Excellent scholars naturally understand the importance of accepting good advice; otherwise, how can they achieve academic breakthroughs if they stubbornly cling to their own opinions? Don't you agree?"]

He didn't say that when he was arguing with Zeberlele before; he was saying that we should believe in the knowledge in books.

All we can say now is: ten steps from now, your past self will become your enemy.

The fun in Tirzad wasn't the main point, because in the story, on the way back to the oasis camp, Lin Qiu showed some desert inscriptions on screen, already translated.

There weren't any earth-shattering events; it simply chronicled the history of a dynasty, recording the reigns of several monarchs.

The inscription also mentions: 'One of the kings died during the Zhenling Rebellion', and 'Juer City', among other things.

This passage might seem overwhelming to the average person, but for scholars, it's a treasure trove that makes their mouths water!

For example, Farusan's eyes widened. "Dude, you can decipher the ancient text on the stone tablet? It's just a piece of cake!"

She knew Lin Qiu was powerful because he knew many things that ordinary people didn't, and he could even predict the future.

But she didn't expect that Lin Qiu not only foresaw what the future held, but also thoughtfully translated the ancient text on the stone tablet into a language that everyone could understand.

This translation ability can't be something he was born with, right? Does that mean Lin Qiu really can translate classical Chinese?

This was no less shocking to Farussan, an epistemologist, than when Mona first saw the prophetic book; her field of expertise was greatly impacted!

However, perhaps because she had experienced a century of being lost, her competitive spirit was not as strong as Mona's, and she was mostly filled with emotion.

Unlike Mona, who is still unwilling to admit defeat, she was eventually tricked by Lin Qiu into becoming a maid and working for free.

To others, she was working for free, since Lin Qiu didn't teach her anything or pay her. At most, he provided food and lodging, but she had to cook for herself if she wanted to eat.

But Mona felt she had already made a fortune. Lin Qiu's words must have a deeper meaning, but ordinary people just couldn't understand them. "Wait until I figure it out."

Most importantly, it includes room and board! Now I can save on rent and food expenses and buy more books and equipment. She felt like she had made a huge profit.

Returning to the story, the travelers and their companions finally returned to the oasis camp, only to discover that there was another gilded guild there, presumably also Samel's men.

After dealing with them, Paimon told Nahtigar about what had happened along the way.

Now Nakhtigar understood why Zeborel and Tirzad were so tense when he returned; they suspected Zeborel was a mole.

Nahtigar said, "...So that's what happened. However, I have no right to comment on this."

What he meant was that Tirzad was the one who ultimately paid him, so he couldn't question Tirzad.

But now he was in a world of endless yellow sand, and it was uncertain whether he could even get out of there if he left Zeborele, so he didn't want to offend Zeborele.

Look, this is the logic of a normal person. Tirzad's logic is beyond words.
