Chapter 467: The Apostle Delivering the Letter
"Mercy, mercy."
The silly apostle waved his hand with all his might: "I am just here to deliver something. Don't you have a saying in Liyue that when two countries are at war, envoys should not be killed?"
"Send something?"
Xiao let go of his hand, and then seamlessly connected with Pu Yuan and placed it on the other's neck.
"Take it out."
"Damn it! You're already so strong, why do you have to be so cautious?"
After the silly apostle had caught his breath, he took out a very exquisite-looking book from his arms.
"This is what the higher-ups asked me to give to that kid. Anyway, I don't know what's inside, and why they asked me to bring it to you."
Gu Sanqiu was surprised: "You mean, fighting is your personal desire, but in essence you are just a messenger?"
"Otherwise, that old guy named Gu Shaochong pressed me into the dirt, and then I lost the fight with his junior. I must be thinking about getting my revenge!"
The apostle glanced at Brother Xiao who had a cold face and said: "Don't look at me like that. There really is no poison on it that will kill you instantly if you touch it. Otherwise, I would have died a long time ago."
Xiao put away the Hepu Kite and said, "Leave. Never set foot in Liyue again."
"Ah, actually I do, too. Only ghosts would want to come to your Liyue to cause trouble. There are so many mysterious and spooky guys hiding in the dark."
The apostle was very depressed: "That old guy named Gu Shaochong must be alive. I don't want him to press me into the ground again."
"There's nothing we can do. What do the people above tell us to do? Can we, the errand boys, refuse? You must be kidding."
The apostle went into the space crack and said, "Anyway, if I come here again in the future, I will definitely avoid you two. You are insulting the sacred battle by calling your teammates during a fair duel!"
A Yaksha silently watched the chatterbox disappear, and then Gu Sanqiu looked at Xiao with a puzzled look.
"The Abyss Cult actually has such top-quality stuff?"
As for these cursed people, unless they are the kind who will beat you up when they meet, the peaceful Hillichels are not afraid of even children, and will even exchange food with them in the wild to share.
Not to mention there is a mysterious Valley of Rest, where the residents live in the same way as normal people except for their appearance.
But the Grace brothers of the Abyss Cult are different. Whenever they meet, they always shout "Serve the Abyss" and "Listen to Grace" and then raise their hands to slap you twice, and finally use the elemental shield on their bodies to lock your blood and disgust you.
This talkative yet somewhat silly apostle should be considered a genuine eccentric.
"I haven't seen it."
Xiao also felt that the apostle he saw this time seemed a little different: "If you meet him again in the future, you'd better be careful, what if he is pretending."
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Gu Sanqiu seemed to be thinking: "Who on earth has nothing better to do than to ask him to send me something? Is he trying to bribe me?"
Xiao opened the book and flipped through it roughly, a look of surprise appeared on his cold face.
"What's wrong, Brother Xiao? It can't be poisonous."
"No, there is nothing wrong with the book itself. Read it yourself."
Green light rose from Xiao's body. "I'm leaving now. As for the contents of this book, you can decide for yourself. I don't know if there is any trap in it."
"A trap? Is it that serious?"
Gu Sanqiu took the book and opened it. After taking a look, he was also a little shocked.
"It's actually this. The Abyss Cult actually preserved something of this level?"
…
Late at night, Liyue Secret Library.
Gu Fei yawned loudly: "Xiangjun, why are you waking everyone up at this time to work overtime? Don't you know that the elderly are prone to getting sick?"
"Stop talking nonsense, finish it as soon as possible and rest up. This year, the cultivation lineage has opened a paradise, and we will give you a few more places in the secret library, so you don't have to go there to recuperate at your own expense."
Gu Fei instantly perked up: "Oh, this is our job as a secret library. Xiangjun even specially asked for a batch of extra quotas for us. This is really too polite."
"hehe."
Gu Sanqiu smiled wryly: "Hurry up, if I'm not mistaken, this thing won't stay in my hands for long."
“It’s already started over there.”
Gu Fei looked at Gu Sanqiu who was doing nothing with a mint in his mouth and said, "However, Xiangjun, have you been doing archaeological research somewhere recently? You actually managed to get such a precious thing."
"What's so fun about archaeology? If I just walk around someone's house and take something out, it counts as archaeology."
Apart from anything else, the pile of weapons he had were antiques of top quality. Archaeology was really not as fast as digging things out from the warehouse himself.
Gu Fei sighed, "Ah, but it's quite magical. I didn't expect that Xiangjun would get the blueprints from that time not long after we hit a bottleneck."
"Yes, it's such a coincidence, so coincidental that I even suspect there's a traitor in the secret library."
Gu Sanqiu sighed. When he first saw what the silly apostle had brought, he almost shouted, "Old man, save me."
That was the blueprint of the Guizhong machine, so detailed that even an old lady could imitate it by looking at the blueprint .
"The blueprints of the Guizhong machine, such a precious thing."
Gu Sanqiu looked a little solemn. He didn't expect that there would be such a thing in the Abyss Cult.
"It's unbelievable. By the way, even their purpose in sending the blueprints to me is a little unbelievable."
Gu Fei asked doubtfully: "Xiang Jun, looking at your expression, you seem a little worried?"
"Of course I was worried, because this blueprint was given to me by the enemy. If I hadn't checked it on the way and confirmed that there were no errors in the data, I would have suspected that it was sent deliberately."
Gu Sanqiu scratched his hair and said, "There's nothing I can do. After all, with something this delicate, if there's a mistake in the data in one place, it could cause a big problem when it's used."
Gu Fei nodded in agreement: "That's true, but we didn't follow the blueprint completely. We just compared some difficulties that we haven't figured out yet."
"We have also considered what Xiangjun has considered, so there is no absolute copying action. In the end, we must create a new generation of return machine that is unique to our Liyue."
Gu Sanqiu has already said that there are some problems with the origin of this blueprint. Even if the scientific research geniuses in the secret library are stupid, they cannot completely believe this blueprint.
For warriors, the power gained through training is what they trust most.
For scientific researchers, the objects that can be created based on the knowledge in their brains are the ones that can truly give them peace of mind.
It is a common mentality for researchers who can never sleep peacefully when their core technologies are controlled by others. It is also a noble and valuable quality for the country.
The blueprint of the final machine?
Forget it, who knows what will be copied out, we in Liyue Secret Library only trust ourselves!
We are not so stupid that we don’t know how to do the first step. It’s just that the technology in some areas has been discontinued for some reason.
If it weren't for these reasons, it would sound like we can't replicate it!
We need to make a new generation of Liyue return machine that we can manufacture independently!
"It's okay, let them work harder in batches."
Gu Sanqiu sighed: " I really have a feeling that this blueprint will not stay with me for long."
