Chapter 93: Sharing Screenshots, Zhongli's Private Chat
Shaking his head, Wu Tong cast aside all distracting thoughts.
He picked up the items floating in the air and instructed the smart brain to analyze everything he had drawn.
In less than a second, all items were fully analyzed.
Do not think this was too fast. After all, compared with other top-level "Heaven-Defying Comprehension" talents, the difference lay only in a single database.
There was no hardware gap, and in some aspects his hardware even surpassed the others. Thus, analyzing items of no higher than sixth rank naturally did not take long.
After the analysis, the Sun Departure Fire Art was merged by the smart brain into the Crimson Wheel Heart Scripture, making it even more complete.
The ability of the Any Door was integrated into the Dimensional Curtain, improving its teleportation effect and reducing consumption.
The powers of the Senzu Bean and Horse Talisman were consolidated into his healing ability, greatly enhancing its potency. It also gained the added effects of dispelling external influences and repairing objects.
The Gourmet Tablecloth allowed Wu Tong to comprehend the ability of Food Creation. By consuming energy, he could create whatever food he desired. With greater energy, he could even produce fantasy foods—but only those he had personally seen before.
The Crystal Sand Eagle was analyzed for its infinite ammunition mechanism. Wu Tong discovered that "infinite bullets" were merely a duplication program that endlessly copied the bullets, enabling firearms to achieve limitless ammo.
Once parsed, Wu Tong had the smart brain inscribe the program into his own firearms.
From the Egg of Rayquaza, countless Pokémon skills were extracted and added to his skill library. After analysis, Wu Tong tossed the egg aside onto a table, placing a few life crystals condensed from pure vitality next to it.
As for the three books, Wu Tong knew the others were not interested, so he stored them in his soul tool to study later.
——
With everything settled and feeling his strength rise again, Wu Tong sighed with emotion.
"As expected, cheating is exhilarating. But the pace of updates is too fast—some items get discarded before I even use them."
"It seems the unused ones can be sold to the chat group in exchange for points. Then I can buy other goods to further increase my foundation."
He then opened the group chat page, preparing to post the pictures of his draw results—excluding the three books.
The moment he opened the group, it was already flooded with screenshots of others' lottery results.
[Slime King]: Male elf corpse.jpg
[Slime King]: Perfect! I can finally transform into a human, brothers!
At this time, Rimuru had not yet met Shizu, so he had not taken human form. With a way to heal her, he no longer intended to consume her body.
Thus, lacking a human body to analyze, Rimuru was desperate to solve the problem of becoming human.
But now, seeing this, he no longer needed to worry. An elf—child of forest and nature, beautiful beyond compare, no less than Shizu herself. And most importantly, a male body, no need for gender transformation.
The moment he drew this reward, Rimuru posted it, sharing the good news with the group.
[Dragon King Sprays Water]: Jealousy disfigures me. I'm annoyed you all keep drawing what you want…
[Dragon King Sprays Water]: But still, congratulations, Rimuru.
…
[Photo Princess]: Ah, I drew this little fellow, everyone look, isn't it cute?
[Photo Princess]: Alolan Ice Vulpix.jpg
[Dragon King Sprays Water]: March, you've changed too.
Gu Ruoli glanced at March 7's Pokémon picture, speaking with faint resentment.
[Photo Princess]: Ehehe~
March 7 used the Barbatos-style universal topic-shifting reply, trying to muddle through with cuteness.
Seeing the group chat filled with screenshots and jealous remarks from unlucky ones, Wu Tong stayed silent for a while. Thinking that one more or less made no difference, he then posted his results as well.
[Seeker of Dao]: Lottery results.jpg
[Seeker of Dao]: Item details.jpg
[UnshakenBilian]: Damn, Wu bro, such luck! One ten-draw and you got so many treasures.
[Heavenly Base King]: Indeed, plenty of good things, especially that Senzu Bean effect—it's outrageous.
[Slime King]: Whoa, even a Rayquaza, the legendary Pokémon! Not only powerful but also so cool, I want it.
[Passerby]: Any Door, not bad. But still not as good as my Dimensional Curtain.
[Seeker of Dao]: Haha, just lucky.
At that moment, Zhongli, who had been silent until now, caught sight of one particular item in Wu Tong's results. His eyes lit up.
…
While everyone was joking around, Wu Tong's private chat notification popped up.
Opening it, he found Zhongli messaging him directly.
[Wandering the Mortal World]: Wu Tong, my young friend, might I borrow the Horse Talisman for a time?
[Wandering the Mortal World]: I am willing to offer compensation.
Reading this, Wu Tong smiled. He had been looking for a reason to visit the world of Genshin Impact, and now it had come knocking.
Ever since acquiring the Horse Talisman, Wu Tong had considered trading with Zhongli. After all, whether it was the Abyssal curse, dragon corrosion, Fontaine's curse, the wear of years, or lingering resentment of demon gods, all could be resolved through the Horse Talisman.
With it in hand, Wu Tong could instantly become an honored guest of the Seven Nations upon arriving in Teyvat.
As for Zhongli's purpose, it was obvious. His own erosion, Azhdaha's condition, the wear of Liyue's adepti, the grievances afflicting Xiao, and the lingering hatred of fallen demon gods across the land—all were pressing matters.
In the past, no solution existed. But now, since one did, it was only natural to seize it.
Though a fifth-rank artifact, the Horse Talisman might not solve all of Teyvat's problems, but dealing with those of the Seven Nations alone was well within its power.
[Seeker of Dao]: There's no need for compensation. I can lend you the Horse Talisman. After all, we're friends in this group; helping one another is only natural.
[Seeker of Dao]: But… tell me, Zhongli, have you ever considered leading Liyue away from Teyvat? The crisis there is truly severe.
[Seeker of Dao]: And what do you think of my world?
Indeed, Wu Tong never intended to ask for payment. Instead, he planned to use this as leverage to pry open the door to all Seven Nations.
If Liyue could be moved to his world, then the others would surely follow.
He wanted the entire Teyvat. Once Zhongli and the Seven Archons agreed, Wu Tong would immediately bring the whole realm over.
In the end, the Archons' defiance of Celestia was nothing more than seeking survival for themselves and their people. Wu Tong could provide that path.
With it, needless sacrifices would no longer be required.
