Jean took out Primogems.

"How many Primogems do you need?"

Ye Yun pointed at the Exchange Scale nearby.

"This is the place where Primogems are exchanged for Star Coins. One Primogem equals ten Star Coins. If you want to exchange any, just put the Primogems right up here."

Lisa said matter-of-factly.

"Then of course we'll exchange all of them."

Lisa looked at Ye Yun and chuckled softly.

"After all, these Primogems only generate value for us when we buy things from you, right?"

Ye Yun smiled and joked.

"Then I'll really have to work hard to promote my goods and get you two to contribute a bit more to my turnover."

Then, Jean exchanged all the Primogems in her hand, totaling 8360.

After paying the Star Coins for the Wind Spirit Art, they still had 6360 left.

Jean took the Wind Spirit Art and began flipping through it. The contents recorded inside were extremely detailed, listing every single step on how to cultivate it.

"That's wonderful. With this Wind Spirit Art, the overall strength of our Knights of Favonius can be improved."

Lisa lazily stretched, sat down on a bar stool, propped her chin with one hand, and crossed her legs.

"Jean, it's probably better not to distribute this Wind Spirit Art directly to all the knights."

Jean was a bit puzzled. Why not distribute it to everyone? Wouldn't it be great to let the entire Knights of Favonius practice the Wind Spirit Art? This could enhance the strength of all the knights, couldn't it?

"Lisa, do you have any thoughts?"

Lisa said.

"Jean, some people in the Knights don't have their hearts in Mondstadt."

Hearing this, Jean had a sudden realization.

Indeed, she had not considered this point.

The internal personnel of the Knights of Favonius were mixed, and there were indeed some whose loyalties did not lie with Mondstadt. If she gave the Wind Spirit Art to these people, wouldn't she just be bringing unnecessary trouble upon herself?

At this moment, Ye Yun chimed in.

"I have a suggestion."

Jean and Lisa looked at Ye Yun simultaneously upon hearing this.

"Ye Yun, what suggestion do you have?"

Ye Yun said.

"There is an old saying in my hometown: in the face of absolute strength, any schemes and plots are a joke."

Lisa looked at Ye Yun with some interest.

"And then?"

Ye Yun said.

"Therefore, I suggest that you can purchase some items that can enhance individual combat power."

Lisa smiled slightly.

"Ye Yun, are you trying to squeeze out every last Star Coin we have?"

Ye Yun did not deny it.

"Of course, I'm a businessman, and you can profit from it as well, can't you?"

Lisa smiled faintly.

"Then you'd better introduce your goods to us properly~"

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow.

"Of course. Come on, you two, let me recommend a few items to you first."

Immediately, Ye Yun operated the touch screen to bring up several items.

Draw Sword, Devil Fruit, Magic Compendium, Physique Enhancement Fruit.

Jean and Lisa looked through them one by one, and finally, both of their gazes locked onto an item called "Heart of Magic".

Item: Heart of Magic

Function: Can harmonize internal magic and boost magic attack power by 10%.

Price: 5000 Star Coins.

This item could recover Lisa's body.

Although Lisa possessed powerful magic, her body simply could not withstand it, and every time she cast a spell, she suffered backlash.

This was also the reason why she frequently fell asleep and needed to rest to recover her physical and mental strength.

If this "Heart of Magic" worked, then Mondstadt would gain a powerful combat force comparable to an Archon's Familiar.

Jean bought it directly and handed it to Lisa.

Lisa took it and looked at Ye Yun.

"Ye Yun, how do you use this thing?"

Ye Yun consulted the system and said.

"It's very simple. You just use your magical power to communicate with it, and it will automatically bind to the first person who touches it with magic."

Hearing this, Lisa joked.

"Then wouldn't this be easily snatched away by others? If this thing of mine gets stolen by someone else, will you give us another one?"

Ye Yun smiled.

"If you know who stole it and can't beat them, I can help you get it back."

Lisa listened.

"Then it's a deal~"

Afterward, Jean and Lisa bid farewell to Ye Yun and the others and returned to Mondstadt.

As for Klee, she stayed behind to play around here.

Mondstadt was currently very unstable, and Klee was actually much safer here.

After resting for a while, March 7th and Dan Heng returned to Belobog through the Teleportation Portal.

As soon as the two returned, they set off to Boulder Town to find Stelle.

At this moment, inside Natasha's clinic in Boulder Town.

Stelle was holding a bowl of white rice paired with green vegetable leaves, squatting in front of the Essence Incubator and eating.

Stelle shoveled a couple of bites of rice. The food in the Underworld really wasn't that great.

She heard that these rice and vegetables only became available after Ye Yun arrived.

In the past, it seemed they only ate hard, unpalatable things, along with some things that weren't even edible.

Stelle hadn't seen them herself, but anyway, that was what she heard Natasha say.

Not long after, the door was pushed open, and March 7th and Dan Heng walked in.

Stelle greeted the two of them and asked.

"Did you two eat yet? Do you want someone to dish you up two bowls of rice?"

March 7th looked at the white rice and greens in Stelle's hand.

"No need, we just went back to the Express and ate there."

When Stelle heard March 7th mention going back to the Express, her brain simply couldn't wrap itself around how it worked.

Back to the Express? How did they go back? This place was so far away from the landing site where she and the others had arrived originally.

Could it be they took Ye Yun's Landing Craft? That didn't make sense either; the timing didn't match, and it was impossible to return in such a short time.

"How did you guys get back?"

With that, Stelle shoveled another mouthful of rice, ate a piece of green vegetable, and stared at the two of them.

March 7th said.

"Ye Yun set up a Teleportation Portal at Svarog's place. You can go straight back to his shop just by opening the door."

After hearing March 7th's explanation, Stelle instantly developed an interest in the Teleportation Portal.

She glanced at the white rice and greens in her hand.

I'm not eating this! I'm going back to eat a big feast!

However, upon second thought, her Little Elf hadn't hatched yet.

Never mind, she would just make do for now and go back for a big meal once her elf hatched.

Afterwards, the three of them chatted idly.

Not long into the chat, the lights in the clinic flickered.

The three of them quickly assumed defensive postures.

The next second, a crackle of static sounded, and Silver Wolf's projection appeared before them.

"Hi, long time no see, A'Xing."

March 7th saw that it was Silver Wolf.

"Stellaron Hunters! Oh, how dare you show your face in front of us! Let's see how I teach you a lesson!"

Silver Wolf glanced dismissively at March 7th, completely ignoring her, and asked Stelle directly.

* "A'Xing, where did you get that game cartridge last time?" *

Hearing this, Stelle blurted out.

"I found it in a trash can. What? Did you clear the game already?"

Silver Wolf nodded.

"Yeah, I've cleared it. It's just like you said, I acquired the Shock Blade skill."

Stelle gave a thumbs-up.

"As expected of you. So what are you here for this time?"

Silver Wolf said.

* "I want to ask if you have any more game cartridges like that." *
