Chapter 67

Takumi observed the installation process of the electrical crystals.

Many of the electrical crystals had been cut to the same size, then placed onto a frame and secured.

The frames were made of special alchemy materials with engraved alchemical patterns.

These patterns served to suppress the electrical charge, preventing any explosions.

After carefully watching the installation, Takumi nodded in approval.

Once the installation was complete, the area would be completely sealed off.

The Qianyan Army would then be stationed here to guard the site.

If all went according to plan, a dedicated Qianyan Army legion, consisting of at least a few hundred soldiers, would be deployed to this location.

This would become the most critical energy supply point for Liyue.

There could be no room for errors.

If Liyue fully adopted electricity, even a single day without power would be a massive loss.

Just as Takumi finished his inspection, Klee suddenly shouted.

"Brother Takumi!!"

"Look!"

"The ley lines are surging!"

Hearing this, Takumi frowned and hurried outside.

Not far away, a golden energy sphere had gathered.

Takumi was surprised.

This was the first time he had witnessed such a phenomenon.

Having been in Teyvat for so long, Takumi naturally understood what this meant.

The surging ley lines were caused by the accumulation of elemental energy within the earth's veins.

Adventurers often helped clear them, provided they had a Vision.

Clearing ley line disruptions would yield rewards, usually Mora.

It was quite similar to the mechanics in the game.

In addition to Mora, one could also obtain relics.

However, these relics weren't enchanted with abilities like in the game.

Instead, they were considered ancient artifacts, valuable for trade.

Because of this, many Vision holders actively sought out ley line surges.

Some adventurers even specialized in ley line purification.

If left uncleared, ley line energy could become unstable.

It would either detonate or manifest as various monsters.

These creatures would then attack people nearby.

Thus, in Teyvat, ley line disruptions were both a threat and an opportunity.

"Let's go!"

Seeing this, Takumi walked toward the energy sphere, bringing Klee along.

At the same time, Shenhe arrived.

After assessing the situation, she immediately drew her weapon.

She understood what was happening.

A battle was likely about to begin.

The three of them approached the massive golden energy sphere.

As Takumi neared it, he sensed the power within.

He was startled.

This was the first time he had directly felt the energy of ley lines up close.

It carried an oddly familiar aura.

Though Takumi had never experienced Honkai energy before, he couldn't ignore the similarity.

After all, he had the Core of the Herrscher of Reason within him.

This made him highly sensitive to certain types of energy.

Takumi was puzzled.

Could it be that the Abyss Order's power was somehow connected to Honkai?

Curious, he made a mental note to investigate this further in the future.

However, for now, the presence of Honkai energy was faint.

It didn't seem dangerous.

Perhaps only by directly encountering the Abyss Order's power would he truly understand the connection.

"How do we activate this?"

Takumi turned his attention back to the golden energy sphere.

The ley line energy continued to surge.

If left unchecked, it could cause problems.

He didn't want the power plant he had just built to be destroyed.

Hearing Takumi's question, Klee eagerly raised her hand.

"I know! I know!"

"Klee knows how to fix it!"

"Watch me!"

"Boom Boom Bomb!"

Without hesitation, Klee pulled out one of her bombs and hurled it at the energy sphere.

Seeing this, Takumi was speechless.

Was it really that simple?

Apparently so.

No need for a complicated activation process.

Next time he saw one, he would just bomb it immediately.

'BOOM!'

An explosion erupted.

The golden energy sphere slowly dissipated.

But in the next moment, monsters materialized—Hilichurls, Slimes, and other creatures.

And there were more of them than in the game.

Shenhe immediately sprang into action.

Wielding her spear, she dashed forward.

Meanwhile, Klee pulled out her rocket launcher.

"Hehe!"

"Boom Boom Bomb, launch!"

Aiming at one side, Klee fired a rocket.

'BOOM!'

Shenhe, on the other side, conjured an ice-infused talisman.

A spectral figure appeared beside her.

Then, she hurled the talisman forward.

'Haah!'

The Vision tied to her hair glowed brightly.

"Husband, suppress them!"

Though Shenhe had merely shouted an attack command, Takumi misheard it.

Standing nearby, he instinctively reacted.

Hearing Takumi's response, Shenhe felt momentarily frustrated.

What was he saying?

She had clearly meant "Fujun's Suppression!"

Takumi's words nearly made her lose focus.

Thankfully, her cold demeanor kept her from overthinking it.

Instead, she concentrated on defeating the monsters in front of her.

Takumi, though briefly amused, quickly shifted back to action.

He activated his own abilities.

"Unbreakable!"

As he spoke, sturdy shields enveloped both Shenhe and Klee.

Shenhe's eyes lit up upon seeing the protective barrier.

The power of Geo was reassuring.

At the same time, she noticed something peculiar.

The negative energy within her body seemed slightly suppressed.

Was this what her master had meant?

Understanding dawned upon her.

While contemplating this, Shenhe continued to fight.

After reinforcing their defenses, Takumi stood back and observed.

Seeing their combat skills, he couldn't help but feel envious.

Although he possessed the power of the Herrscher of Reason, he had no martial arts skills.

Wouldn't it be better if he trained in combat as well?

After thinking about it for a while, Takumi made a decision.

When the time came, he would ask Zhongli to teach him.

After all, the former God of War was a master martial artist.

It would be a waste not to learn from him.

Even though Zhongli currently wielded a polearm, that didn't matter.

Proper training was what mattered.

Even if Lancers had lower luck, he was a transmigrator—surely his luck wouldn't be that bad.

A good decision, he thought.

Additionally, he planned to borrow Hu Tao's Staff of Homa.

Maybe even copy it.

And while he was at it, he might as well replicate weapons from Xiao and others.

With that thought, Takumi smirked.

It seemed like he could mass-produce five-star weapons!

Shaking his head, he refocused on the battlefield.

By now, the fight was over.

Under Klee's relentless bombardment, all the monsters had been wiped out.

Materials littered the ground.

At the same time, a slightly withered flower appeared where the energy sphere had been.

It was a Blossom of Wealth.

Once opened, valuable rewards could be obtained.

At that moment, Klee excitedly tugged on Takumi's sleeve.
