"Go help Xueyue and the others first. I'll find a way to contact his brother. Don't worry about Tianxing anymore. That thing... has no direct relationship with Chongchong's illness."
He stood up and walked to the edge of the sea of clouds with his hands behind his back.
Zhongli looked at the rolling sea of clouds and his gaze gradually moved upwards.
Even though a few stars fell, the twinkling stars remained unchanged.
Yes, it has been like this for thousands of years.
Chapter 736 An old friend came to visit late at night
"Captain Qin!"
When Bai Luo and Kaia found Qin, she was commanding her knights, assigning them to every place where a meteor fell.
But... ...it's not enough, absolutely not enough.
In her opinion, all meteors should have similar effects as the first falling meteorite.
But now there are knights with God's Eye in Mondstadt, but they are totally not enough.
She has already mobilized all the people she can, and if all else fails she will have to ask for help from the Adventurer's Association.
"Kaiya, I may have to trouble you again."
Now, in the entire Mondrian, the person with the most experience in dealing with these meteorites, besides Pendragon, is Kaia.
But at this time, she couldn't let an outsider do these things, so Kaia, who had not yet fully recovered, had to take over.
"Well, leave it to me."
This time, Kaiya rarely complained and took on the task on his own initiative. After apologizing to Bai Luo, he began to gather his own men.
Bai Luo knew that the meteors that fell this time should be the same ones in the original book.
But he didn't say it explicitly.
With the precedent of the first meteorite, he was no longer sure whether there would be exceptions in the future.
In this case... ... the trust he had worked so hard to accumulate from the Knights of Favonius would be more or less lost, and this was not what he wanted to see.
"Mr. Pendragon, please forgive my inattention, but I'm sure you know better than me how important the meteorite issue is."
Jean's face didn't look very good. Now in the Knights of Favonius, except for Lisa who stayed behind and Klee who was still in the confinement room, almost all the original gods had been dispatched.
Even the nuns of the West Wind Church were not idle.
"Understood. If you need any help, please feel free to help, Captain Qin. I'm here just for these meteorites."
"Well, I won't bother you with these simple things. Mr. Diluk has already prepared the tent for you. Someone will take you there soon. If there is anything that you don't like, please let me know."
"Okay, thank you for your kindness, Captain Qin."
After a brief exchange of politeness, Bai Luo, led by a Knight of Favonius, went to the location of the tent.
As for Qin.
"Amber."
Looking at the scout knight Amber, who was busy in the camp and helping to move things everywhere, Qin called her.
"Captain, you're looking for me?"
Hearing Qin's voice, the hair accessories on Amber's head trembled like rabbit ears. She put down the work in her hands, came to Qin and asked.
She had been worried for a long time about the fact that Qin arranged many people to deal with the meteorite but left her in the camp.
As a scout knight of the Knights of Favonius, this should clearly be her job.
"Help me deliver a letter to Tianquan Star in Liyue. Remember, it must be quick!"
Qin found a pen and paper and hurriedly wrote a few lines. She didn't even bother to look for an envelope. She simply folded it a few times, sealed it with some wind elements, and handed it to Amber.
No matter what purpose Tianquanxing helped Mond during the dragon disaster, at least they really extended a helping hand.
This meteor shower covers a large area, including Liyue.
Mond already had experience in this area, and she felt that she needed to help the other party.
As the saying goes: Money is easy to repay, but favors are hard to repay.
This way... ...it can be considered as returning a favor.
While everyone in the camp was busy, Bai Luo was alone in his tent. He was the most idle person here.
But too many things happened today and he had no desire to sleep at all.
As it was very noisy outside, he simply lit a candle, took out the photo of the meteorite he had just taken, and began to study it carefully.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but the noisy voices outside have gradually disappeared.
Those who were assigned tasks followed Qin's instructions and set off towards the places where the meteors fell. Only a small number of people were left here to prevent any accidents from happening.
"Um?"
Bai Luo, who was studying the meteorite under candlelight, seemed to have noticed something and raised his head.
He looked at the entrance of the tent and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"call-"
A gust of wind blew open the entrance of the tent, raising a cloud of dust.
This gust of wind came in a strange way. After circling around the tent, it rolled up the photo that Bai Luo had placed on the table and flew out.
Bai Luo did not stop the wind, because this little trick... ... he already knew who was coming.
“Shua—”
A hand wearing a white glove reached in from outside the tent and grabbed the photo that was blown away by the wind.
"You're not studying the material itself, but are tinkering with this useless thing. Your attitude towards research is still as bad as ever, Anatoly."
The doctor crumpled the photo in his hand into a ball and threw it on the ground. He put one hand in his pocket and walked in from outside.
The red eyes under his mask seemed to emit a beast-like luster at night.
Looking at the strange boy in front of him, the doctor called out the name Anatoly without any hesitation, and without even asking.
It was as if he was absolutely certain that this young man was definitely Bai Luo.
This is also his usual style.
"I'm more used to you calling me Bai Luo."
Bai Luo glanced at the crumpled photo on the ground and didn't care too much.
Or... ... he would sit here and look at a photo, just waiting for the Doctor to show up.
"Bai Luo... Oh, it's really a familiar name."
He walked in front of Bai Luo with graceful steps. Dressed in a suit, he didn't look like someone who was looking for trouble.
If he had some gifts in his hands, he might look more like a visitor.
"Have you seen that thing?"
Glancing at the bench that Bai Luo handed over, the doctor did not reach out to take it.
He just stood opposite Bai Luo and asked in a low voice.
What he was talking about was self-evident.
"Well, did you come up with that?"
Seeing that the doctor didn't want the bench, Bai Luo didn't insist and casually threw it aside.
The doctor always acts as he pleases, and he is indifferent to everything except the experiments that he values.
"You'll have to ask the clown about this. After all, he was the one who arranged the mission."
The doctor can be said to have put all the blame on the clown Piero, and as for what role he played in it... he didn't mention it at all.
But maybe he really didn't know what was going on, because in Bai Luo's impression, the doctor was just like him, and never bothered to lie.
"Compared to this, that meteorite... ... have you touched it?"
Chapter 736: Night Talk with the Doctor
When Bai Luo heard what the doctor said, his eyebrows raised slightly.
Hey
The system let me touch the meteorite, my subconscious let me touch the meteorite, why do you want me to touch it now too
What's so good about touching that thing
It looks hot.
"No, you know my personality. I rarely touch things that look strange."
Leaning back comfortably on the chair, Bai Luo spoke.
Regardless of whether the relationship between the two has changed because of the K423 incident, at least their attitude when talking together now does not seem to have changed.
It's not just the Doctor who's secretly planning something, Bai Luo is the same.
They are both alike.
"Bai Luo, how long did you follow me?"
The scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, and the doctor realized that the young man who had seemed so naive before, now even he seemed to be unable to understand.
Or maybe... ... that immaturity at the beginning was perhaps just something the other party was showing to himself
"More than a year? Of all the executives, I've been with you the longest."
After recalling for a while, Bai Luo said.
It has been mentioned before that although Bai Luo’s direct superior is Rooster, he has actually worked under many people.
Well... except for Tartaglia.
While under Rooster, he helped his old leader plan the Ice Stove Festival.
When he was working for the rich man, he helped with the dirty work and took care of many of the mortal enemies of this Liyue "fellow countryman".
Serve as a sparring partner for the captain and an assistant to the puppet.
Poison the girl... ...and feed her!
Do odd jobs for ladies.
Also helping as a servant to take care of the orphans of Hearth House.
It was when he was with the scattered soldiers that he had a lot of free time.
When Bai Luo was assigned to Sanbing, Sanbing obviously had no interest in him.
Or rather, he didn't like this person who was forced in.
When Bai Luo was under his command, he mostly arranged some unimportant little things, and Bai Luo rarely even saw him.
When working under these executives, the duration could be as long as three to five months or as short as a month, and they would basically leave after completing a task.
That was the time when I worked as the doctor's assistant, which was the longest time I stayed there and is also the time I remember most.
It’s not that his worldview was distorted. This was the first time he truly walked out of the winter and came to Mount Sumeru.
Although it was just in the desert, I still got to see the scenery beyond the snow.
Of course, the most important thing is that he met Little Cole and K423.
"You know what? Among the people I brought with me at that time, you were the one I liked the most."
The doctor did not lie. Not many people who worked under him could live long.
Although because of the Queen, the Doctor does not have too many improper thoughts about Bai Luo.
But the fact that Bai Luo had worked under him for more than a year was enough to prove one thing.
There was something about Bai Luo that was worth his attention.
"It's really my honor."
