Chapter 192: Learn Mechanical Technology from Velvie

After Zhongli completed his enhancements, he couldn't wait to show off his skills.

Hearing Zhongli's words, Takumi nodded. Instantly, with a thought, he began issuing orders to the robots that were working at the construction site in the distance, instructing them to leave the area for now.

Some of the busy Liyue people who saw this scene were left confused. What was going on with these robots?

"You all step back for a bit."

"Your Emperor thinks you've been working too hard."

"So, he plans to help out!"

While they were still puzzled, Takumi's voice suddenly echoed in their minds.

Upon hearing Takumi, the craftsmen of Liyue present were stunned for a moment.

"The Emperor?"

"Alright!"

"The Emperor is here?"

"That's great!"

For a moment, everyone started cheering.

Keqing, who had just returned from the Holy Son's place, also noticed this. She, too, was bewildered—were those robots malfunctioning?

But she clearly heard what the others were saying.

The Emperor is here?

Thinking of this, she quickly scanned her surroundings. Then, in a hidden corner, she spotted Takumi and Zhongli.

Immediately, Keqing maneuvered her vehicle over to them.

"Emperor!"

"Takumi!"

Keqing hurriedly got off and greeted the two.

When Zhongli arrived, Keqing wasn't at the site—she had gone to see the Holy Son and had just returned.

"Keqing, you're back," Takumi said, his eyes lighting up at the sight of her. "Just in time to watch your Emperor display his divine might!"

With that, he waved her over to watch the show.

Hearing Takumi, Keqing was a bit confused but quickly stepped forward.

Zhongli looked at Takumi with a touch of helplessness but didn't dwell on it. Instead, he got to work.

Once most people had cleared out, Zhongli began to act. His power spread into the earth, and under his control, the land began to change.

He had already reviewed the blueprints here. There wasn't much difference compared to Liyue Harbor—this place was just more spacious, and some areas had been slightly redesigned.

After all, Liyue Harbor was built a long time ago, so it would be unreasonable to use the same plans here. The craftsmen, combined with Prometheus's advice, made some adjustments. Having memorized the plans, Zhongli began to manifest the foundation of Liyue City with his power.

In an instant, all the foundations were laid. Then, the ground began to change—one building after another sprang up. However, these buildings weren't yet roofed or painted; people would still need to finish them later.

Witnessing this miracle, the craftsmen were overjoyed. Each of them grew excited, shouting "Long live the Emperor!"

Within just a few minutes, Zhongli had constructed all the buildings of Liyue City. Keqing found it incredible.

Originally, according to her plan, it might take a year or two to build an entire city, even with robotic assistance. But with the Emperor's help, it was finished so quickly?

Unbelievable!

If she'd known this was possible, she would have brought Zhongli in right away.

Unaware of Keqing's thoughts, Zhongli, after finishing the construction, spoke:

"That should do it."

"Now, you can decorate this place."

"Then take the time to learn well in this world."

"I'll slowly send more people over in the near future."

Moving everyone over at once wasn't feasible—better to take things step by step.

Keqing nodded in response.

"Understood, Emperor!"

She had no objections. She'd already been in this world for a while and had learned quite a lot in just a few days—it had truly broadened her horizons.

She was more than willing to continue studying here. Besides, she could even learn some magic and swordsmanship, which would greatly enhance her abilities.

Moreover, the Holy Son had given her a vial of Superpower Awakening Potion. Now, she possessed her own superpower.

Even without the Vision, she could control the Electro element now, which made her the happiest of all. She'd always felt that the Vision was a denial of her efforts—this was something she'd thought long ago. Now, having superpowers, she was determined to train hard and become even stronger.

To Keqing, the Vision was just an external tool. Her superpower, though, was her own strength, and that was what mattered most.

She had learned about superpowers—they are abilities humans gain through the use of special potions, just like innate human potential that can't be developed without the potion. Now, since she'd used the potion, her superpower had awakened.

After Zhongli finished, Takumi smiled and said:

"Well, Keqing, I'll leave you to your work."

"I'm heading off!"

With that, he glanced at Zhongli. Zhongli nodded, and the two left together. Takumi teleported Zhongli and himself back to his villa in an instant.

Once Takumi and Zhongli were gone, Keqing got busy. She started communicating with the robots to prepare the decoration materials and draw up renovation plans, striving to finish the place thoroughly.

With these thoughts, Keqing threw herself into the work.

...

Takumi returned to the villa with Zhongli. Bronya, Liliya, and the others were still chatting; even You was there.

When Takumi and Zhongli entered, Bronya couldn't help but speak:

"Takumi, give me some advice."

"I plan to study here with you."

"I've decided to focus on some auxiliary magic and specialize in mechanical knowledge."

"What do you think?"

Her main focus would be technology, with magic as support.

Takumi was a little surprised but replied, "That's great. Some of this world's technology is definitely worth learning. Your superpower is mechanical control, and machines aren't weak—using magic as support is a good plan."

He fully supported Bronya's idea. Even Zhongli chimed in:

"You can also learn some martial arts techniques. That way, your skill set will be even more complete."

Bronya's eyes lit up at this—it was indeed a great idea.

"Alright! It's decided."

She didn't hesitate at all, setting her course then and there. They had been discussing this for a while already.

"If you want to learn about mechanical matters, I think you should go find Vilvi. She's the true expert in that field. Now that she possesses the Herrscher of Reason's core, she might even be able to come up with some new things."

If you want to study mechanical technology, Vilvi is absolutely the right person to seek out.
