"So?"

Outside the domain, Lyney stood with his arms crossed, looking at Wu Wanghai, who had just finished explaining everything that had happened along the way.

"So I brought Lynette with me, and as soon as we entered the domain, the battle started." Wu Wanghai counted on his fingers. "Good thing you came! Otherwise, we would've had a really hard time fighting!"

"But how did you find us?" Wu Wanghai asked Lyney in return.

"The traces of your battles along the way were very obvious," Lyney said.

Wu Wanghai understood at once. "Elemental Sight, right?"

"That's right." Lyney nodded.

I almost forgot. I should try it myself. As he spoke, Wu Wanghai recalled the image of activating Elemental Sight in the game.

The next moment, Wu Wanghai's vision changed. He could see Hydro and Anemo elements lingering everywhere around them.

At that moment, Lynette leaned over and filled Lyney in on what Wu Wanghai had failed to mention.

Lyney immediately understood, and his attitude toward Wu Wanghai changed somewhat. This guy was a major benefactor.

"But, Lynette. If something like this happens again, at least leave me a signal and tell me. I was really worried something might happen to you." Lyney spoke, then whispered a great deal more into Lynette's ear.

"I understand." Lynette lowered her head. This time had really been sudden. And she had forgotten to leave her brother a mark, making him worry again.

"Then I'll join your team as well." To protect Lynette from now on, Lyney made his decision.

"Lyney is a good person!" Wu Wanghai beamed with delight.

"Ugh." Watching the experience gained from defeating monsters grow smaller and smaller, Wu Wanghai began to feel unhappy. When was he ever going to reach max level at this rate?

Moreover, Wu Wanghai had scanned the monsters with his phone before and found that most of them were only level eight or nine. Even the occasional large monster was only level thirteen at most.

"Right! Have you heard of Adventurer's Experience or Hero's Wit?"

"What are those?" Lyney shook his head.

Furina also asked curiously, "Are they stories about adventurers and great heroes?"

"This is bad." Wu Wanghai shook his head. It looked like he could only...

"Ah, I've got it!" Wu Wanghai slapped his palm. "Ley Line Blossoms."

How could he have forgotten? In the game, he could also spend Resin to farm Mora and experience. Though that was normal enough—he had not farmed them for two and a half years. Unless there was a double-reward event, he would not go out of his way to farm them. He had been too focused on getting experience from fighting monsters.

Lyney stroked his chin. "We do know about those. They grow in many places."

"Good, good, good! Then that settles it. Our next target is Ley Line Blossoms! Come on, let's go look for some." Wu Wanghai clenched his fist excitedly. If they kept farming blossoms, reaching max level would only take a few days.

"But it's already dusk. There's less than an hour before nightfall." This time, Lyney became the timekeeper again.

If Lyney had not mentioned it, Wu Wanghai would barely have noticed.

Wu Wanghai looked at Lyney, waiting to see what he would say. "So, what should we do? Do you have somewhere to go? We're really far from Lumidouce Harbor right now."

"Hmm, let me think." Lyney looked around as he considered it, then finally offered a good suggestion. "There isn't anywhere nearby to rest, but there's a place close by that's quite suitable for camping."

"Yay! Camping! What do you think, Fufu?" Wu Wanghai cheered, then asked Furina, who had been silent for quite a while.

Furina narrowed her eyes and nodded. "Camping? Not bad, not bad. Come to think of it, I, the god, have never camped in the wilderness with other people before. It will be a rare experience."

Thus, everyone followed Lyney to a place without wild monsters, where there was a river, trees, and fairly pleasant scenery.

Right before everyone's eyes, Lyney conjured a bag out of thin air. The next moment, two tents and a campfire appeared in the open space before them.

"Ta-da~" Lynette made the sound effect at just the right moment.

"Nice!" Wu Wanghai cried out in praise and started clapping. Furina said nothing, but she also gave a couple of claps.

"A small portable magic bag. It can hold a lot of things. Lynette and I only made these not long ago. Would you like one?" Lyney began promoting the magic bags he had spent so long developing, looking rather proud.

Making these magic bags had taken a great deal of thought and materials from Lyney and Lynette.

As for why they had created such bags in the first place, the first reason was convenience. Although Visions could store items as well, the space was only enough to hold weapons. The second reason was Fontaine's legendary prophecy. If it truly came to pass, the bags could help the people of Fontaine safeguard their belongings more effectively during the prophecy and reduce their losses.

"I don't need one. I already have my own backpack." Wu Wanghai shook his head. His phone had so many inventory slots. Wu Wanghai had tested it too: even boulders two or three meters wide could fit inside and would only take up one slot.

Lyney looked toward Furina, but Furina shook her head. "I don't need one either."

Seeing that neither of them wanted one, Lyney fell silent. He began examining the magic bag in his hands and shook his head slightly to himself.

The current magic bags were not perfect yet. He would optimize them a little later before distributing them to the people of Fontaine.

The pitch-black night sky was filled with countless stars.

"Crackle, crackle." The campfire by the river burned brightly, making the cool night less cold.

Furina's laughter rang through the quiet wilderness. "Hahaha, that magic trick is amazing. Do another one, another one!"

"Keep your eyes open and watch carefully this time!" Lyney once again performed a small card trick for Furina.

The pleasant time passed quickly. The sky had grown very dark. Lynette and Furina had gone to sleep early.

Wu Wanghai was still full of energy. This was his second night in Teyvat, and he still was not used to how early they went to bed.

Outside the tents, Lyney began placing the little mechanical cats he always carried around the camp. They functioned as alarms and could also drive away approaching enemies.

"All right, we should rest too. If enemies come close, these mechanical cats will make a sound." Lyney clapped his hands and spoke to Wu Wanghai.

"Okay, then I'll sleep too." After saying that, Wu Wanghai lay down in the tent, closed his eyes, and went to sleep.

By the time Wu Wanghai opened his eyes again, the sky had already brightened.

Wu Wanghai checked the time. It was a little after seven in the morning.

When he stepped out of the tent, he found that the other three were already up.

Furina sat on a tree stump while the siblings cooked breakfast.

"Good morning. The food is ready, so come eat." Lyney greeted him with a smile.

"Good morning." Wu Wanghai replied and began eating.

After the four-person team finished eating, Lyney packed up all the equipment. Everyone was now ready to set off.

"Yay! Then today's mission is to find Ley Line Blossoms!" Wu Wanghai pointed into the distance.

They had to find experience blossoms within the limited time available, so they could farm more of them and reach max level as soon as possible.
