Chapter 197

"Emperor, this is it." Aatrox said to Su Chen, "In order to kill Lasco, Rek was infected with the forbidden power of Lasco and fell into madness. We can only work together to seal him here."

Su Chen nodded slightly, released his power, and merged into the earth. Soon, he sensed the seal in the underground palace under the exploration of the yellow sand.

If it were in the game, it would take half a desert book for the traveler to come here.

The cause was that the black storm involved the plot characters, or they came here on a mission from the Adventurer's Association, discovered the secret of the palace through investigation, and accidentally released the ancient crocodile Renekton, but because the latter's energy was almost exhausted, the battle was finally won by the traveler.

As for the end, it was naturally before his death that Renekton regained consciousness and told the traveler the story of the distant ancient country.

Well, this mission is worth at least 100,000 Mora.

However, Ying was still doing tasks in Narimaj at this time. After confirming that Lord Grass God and His Majesty the Emperor had established a friendly relationship, they knew that the two sides would not fight, so Ying and Paimon felt relieved to stay in Narimaj temporarily, and asked the sage Hein who came to help to introduce some tasks to them.

Because of the reconstruction of Narimaj, even if the city has been restored to its original appearance, there are a lot of internal problems. Compared with fighting with the demons, it is great to make a lot of Mora by running a few times in Narimaj.

It must be said that Shurima is indeed rich. At the beginning, there were countless wealth that sank into the ground with the kingdom. These were all excavated by Su Chen with his great power, and now gathered in Narimaj for various channels of expenditure.

They can eat and drink for free in the palace, and they can also make money. The desert people speak well and have many treasures. Ying and Paimon don’t want to leave anymore.

As for Senor, after hearing the heavy news that the Little Grass God and the Great Kind Tree King threw themselves into the arms of Emperor Azir, he recovered after a few days and finally decided to return to Xumi City to help stabilize the situation.

"Rekton, my loyal warrior, it's time to wake up." Su Chen looked at the yellow sand and murmured.

As the power lifted the palace from the ground, the ancient seal loosened. In an instant, the black sand covered the sky, and the cold and cold wind became the master of this desert.

A terrifying breath spread out from the sealed palace.

Roar!

After the beast roared, the voice full of anger and murderous intent directly shook the sand and dust away.

"Everyone, must die!!"

Boom!

The huge figure broke the seal and rolled up the dark power to come down - it was a terrifying giant with a crocodile head and a human body, holding an axe blade covered with blood, as terrible as a demon rushing out of hell.

"Not bad." Although Renekton in front of him was eroded by the power of the taboo, the power was not much, and because of the seal, it did not cause any fatal damage to Renekton.

Su Chen mobilized his power to strip Renekton of the power of ascension and the power of the taboo. The ancient giant crocodile that lost its power instantly turned into a cute little crocodile.

"Rekton, long time no see."

Aatrox, who turned into a sword demon, appeared in front of him. He thought he had to fight, but now it seems unnecessary.

"Aatrox... O, I seem to have had a bad dream. I dreamed..." Renekton turned his eyes and saw Su Chen, and he was stunned in the same place, "I must not have woken up."

Su Chen chuckled: "Okay Renekton, Nasus is still waiting for you in the palace."

...

After rescuing Renekton, Su Chen took him directly back to Narimaj, washed away the remaining taboos in his body with the sun disk, and gave him the power of the ascender again.

After a brief reunion with Nasus, the warlike desert butcher set out on an expedition, because he heard about Emperor Azir's idea of ​​unifying the desert. If it was any later, those who resisted would be dealt with by Sivir and Asna.

Seeing this, Su Chen was too lazy to pay attention and let him go.

"Emperor, the work of the Ascension Ceremony has been prepared." Nasus said as he entered the palace.

"So soon?"

"This is thanks to that traveler... Emperor, she seems to have a special power, and her sword is also very extraordinary."

Su Chen waved his hand: "Don't worry, Nasus, don't tell her about me, but don't embarrass her either, she is my friend."

"Yes, follow the will of the emperor."

The Ascension Ceremony is ready, and there is one more thing to do before that.

Su Chen started the teleportation and instantly returned to the marked point in Liyue - the Human Emperor Palace.

As soon as he appeared, he saw Zhongli sitting alone in the yard drinking.

The wind was whistling, a little sad.

Seeing Su Chen suddenly appear, Zhongli was a little surprised at first, but soon he didn't care.

Although he didn't know how Su Chen appeared, compared with the shock he brought to him the previous times, this disappearance was not worth mentioning.

"Why are you here alone?" Su Chen asked in confusion. Liyue didn't end in tragedy, old friends are all here, why is he here alone to buy osmanthus.

Zhongli said slowly: "The Moon Festival is approaching, they all went to prepare, Wangsheng Hall has nothing to do today, so I came here to sit."

Is there nothing to do today or are you okay...Su Chen knew that Wangsheng Hall was actually doing a good business, but most of the time it was left to those ceremonial attendants to handle, and rarely did Hu Tao and Zhongli need to do it themselves.

However, the enthusiastic Master Hu is always busy. Even if he has nothing to do, he has to find something to do. Just now, he was reported to the Qianyan Army for selling funeral services to someone at Feiyunpo. Now he is explaining her marketing strategy of buying more and getting more to the Qianyan Army.

"The Moon-Chusting Festival, I am looking forward to it."

Su Chen sat down with a smile.

To be honest, among all the countries, Liyue is the one that makes him feel "at ease" at any time. It's strange to say that as the Human Emperor, he should bring peace of mind to his people, but when he sees the lights of thousands of houses in Liyue Harbor and Guiliji, he feels at ease.

My hometown is where my heart is at ease... Although the simulated identity is constantly changing, this point has never changed.

Moreover, Su Chen found that his Human Emperor template has gradually shown a trend of advancing from gold to red, especially when he stepped on the land of Liyue, the power of the template reached its strongest, and he even felt that he could open the sky with one sword.

"If you want, you can watch it together." Zhongli said.

"I'll take some time."

"Why did you come back this time?"

"I have something to tell you."

Su Chen told him about putting pressure on the Kingdom of Zhidong.

Zhongli didn't care much about this.

"You can decide on this matter."

Su Chen laughed: "It's just an excuse to take a break from the busy schedule and have a drink with you."

Zhongli was stunned, then a smile appeared in his eyes, and he personally filled a glass of wine for Su Chen.

After a few drinks, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard. Ganyu was holding a tray with all kinds of snacks on it.

"Eh? Brother Xuanyuan?"

Ganyu was a little surprised. He was stunned for a long time and then hurried over.

"Brother Xuanyuan is here too."

Su Chen smiled faintly: "Well...what are you holding in your hand?"

"This is a machine invented by Master Liuyun. You only need to put the materials in it and it can automatically make all kinds of snacks." Ganyu explained.

Su Chen took a look and found that there were many colorful things inside. One of them looked like Qingxin Cake, but he didn't recognize the others. They looked strange and hard to describe.

"So what are you doing..."

"Liuyun Zhenjun said that the things he made should be tasted by others, so he asked me to bring them to the emperor to try."

Su Chen was puzzled: "Where are the other immortals? Guizhong and the others are not here?"

Ganyu said: "They don't want to eat, and they are afraid that they will lose their appetite during the Zhuyue Festival."

Zhongli: "..."

Uh... So it's okay if the emperor eats it, right?

However, Ganyu just followed the master's order to bring the snacks over, not that he must let Zhongli eat it... Yes, ask, ask the emperor, and decide whether to eat it or not.

Looking at Zhongli's hesitation, Su Chen said indifferently: "Is it that scary? Although Liuyun always makes some messy machines, the ingredients of the snacks must be fresh."

Zhongli didn't say anything and pushed the tray behind him silently.

Handing the tray to Su Chen, the meaning is very clear, you can do it if you can.

Su Chen curled his lips and said, "Just go ahead. He's thousands of years old. This is just a small matter..." As soon as the Qingxin Cake entered his mouth, it was like a bottle of seasoning had been overturned. There were all kinds of sour, bitter and spicy flavors.

On the side, Zhongli picked up the wine glass again, drank a sip leisurely, and then slowly said: "Liu Yun doesn't have much talent in cooking."

"Why didn't you say it earlier!!"

Su Chen's roar came from the yard.

"That woman, come and die!!!"

...

The arrival of the Human Emperor made the originally deserted Human Emperor Palace lively in an instant.

A group of people squeezed over and pulled Su Chen to try to make the delicacies to be eaten on the Zhuyue Festival with them.

Zhuyue is the night of the full moon, representing reunion, so Guizhong suggested that the immortals hold a Zhuyue Festival banquet by themselves. As for the food at the banquet, they would naturally make it themselves.

So there was the scene of Liu Yun inventing a cooking machine.

But obviously, including Zhongli, no one had any expectations for this matter, so the others continued to prepare. Zhongli also knew that Liuyun’s cooking was not edible. When he went to Aozang Mountain to meet him, he drank and ate, and the food was all made by Guizhong.

Guizhong was studious and liked the interesting things about humans. In particular, he learned a few tricks from the kitchen god Marcosius in cooking. Although he was not proficient, it was completely enough for his mouth.

So Zhongli didn’t plan to eat it at the beginning, but since Liuyun had made it, someone must eat it. Since Su Chen wanted to do it, why should he stop him?

Who said that the emperor didn’t have a black belly.

As for the reason why the immortals didn’t ask him to cook together, it was naturally because the emperor had always only tasted and appreciated, and his five fingers didn’t touch the water.

“Is it okay if I get a little greasy on my hands?” Su Chen was speechless.

Fanan said with a smile: "Didn't you go through mountains and rivers to find water and taste all kinds of herbs to cure the plague? Cooking is the same as boiling medicine, so you must be fine!"

"Cooking is the same as boiling medicine? Who said that?" Su Chen rolled his eyes.

"Liu Yun said that."

Behind the crowd, Liu Yun, who turned into a bespectacled queen, turned her back to the common people, staring at the improved version 2.0 of the automatic cooking machine in front of her, and snorted: "The machine made by this immortal, just put the ingredients in according to the recipe, whether it is medicine or food, it can be made!"

Su Chen gritted his teeth: "Is this why you cook so badly?"

"I, I just made a mistake."

Liu Yun was embarrassed, and Gui Zhong saw this and couldn't help laughing, and the immortals also laughed without saying a word.

The air was full of a happy atmosphere.

Happy times are always short-lived. The next day, when the transmission time was over, he teleported back to Inazuma.
