Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Albedo
"So, Lord Wang Daoyi, can you show me the drawings you've prepared? If you can, I will help make what you need," said Albedo.
Wang Daoyi handed the drawings to Albedo.
Looking at the drawings Wang Daoyi had made, Albedo frowned.
"This is quite... a simple design!"
In Albedo's eyes, Wang Dao Yi's design could be considered crude. It only had the most basic loading structure, without any safety protection or triggering device. The formation of the crystal shield relied solely on the natural reaction of two elements.
"If you don't mind, I can modify this tool," Albedo said tactfully.
Wang Daoyi certainly didn't mind. He had a clear understanding of his own skills. Even in his skill panel, there wasn't even a skill like alchemy.
Designing this crystal shield elemental bottle relied entirely on his previous knowledge of elemental bottles from the treasure hunting group.
Now that Albedo wanted to improve this thing, Wang Dao Yi couldn't be more pleased.
He never cared about patents. On the contrary, Albedo's profound knowledge of alchemy was more attractive to him.
"Of course, Lord Albedo's alchemy skills, I have heard of them even in Liyue. It is my honor to receive your improvement!" Wang Dao Yi nodded.
"I will complete the items before you depart," Albedo said. Then he looked at Wang Daoyi again. "As the original designer of the tool, I will give you the improved drawings as a sign of respect for your knowledge!"
Thinking about it, Albedo and Wang Dao Yi were quite similar. Albedo pursued the truth of the world and the meaning of the world, while Wang Dao Yi pursued any knowledge he didn't yet understand. Both were seekers of knowledge, and both had obtained the Geo Vision.
So, in Wang Daoyi's eyes, Albedo would be a great teacher. Perhaps he would learn something different from Albedo than from Zhongli.
"Thank you very much. If possible, I would like to follow you to learn how to improve this tool. Is that okay?" Wang Dao Yi asked, genuinely wanting to learn from Albedo.
Albedo glanced at Klee and saw that she didn't object.
"I will be taking my sister Klee with me recently. If you don't mind children, you can join me in improving this tool," Albedo said.
"I quite like children!" Wang Daoyi replied.
"Um... my sister may be a bit mischievous."
"It's okay, I can handle it!"
Albedo: ...
After bidding farewell to Jean, who continued with her work, Albedo took Klee and Wang Daoyi to the room next to Jean's office where Klee was being held.
"Lord Albedo, are you here to pick up Klee?" asked the Windborne Knight who was guarding the room. He seemed to be quite familiar with Albedo.
"Yes, Knight Wood, is Klee okay in the confinement room?" Albedo asked.
"It's fine, just a bit worried about Klee since we haven't heard any explosions for several days!" Wood Knight replied.
Albedo looked somewhat embarrassed as he glanced at Wang Daoyi. "My sister Klee has some special hobbies, so everyone in the Knights of Favonius is a bit 'concerned' about her!"
Wang Daoyi understood. A little girl who could potentially blow up Mondstadt at any moment, even if she was adorable and sensible, no one would feel at ease.
"However, although Klee's destructive power is already strong, it's not even one-thousandth of Miss Alice's, so I can still handle her for now!" Albedo added.
Albedo had both affection and concern for his sister Klee.
Affection because Klee was indeed cute.
Concern because Klee's destructive power would only increase as she grew older, and she was showing signs of becoming more like Miss Alice.
After confirming that Albedo was here to pick up Klee,
The guardian knight opened the door to the confinement room.
A little girl in red was lying on a large table drawing something.
"Klee, I'm here to pick you up!" Albedo said gently, like an old father.
The little girl turned her head and saw her amazing brother.
"Big brother Albedo, Klee misses you so much!" With a leap from the table, the little red person jumped directly onto Albedo.
Affectionately rubbing Albedo's cheeks, the little girl curiously looked at Wang Daoyi next to him.
"Hello, Klee, I'm Wang Daoyi. I'm now an apprentice learning from Master Albedo!" Wang Daoyi introduced himself.
"Oh~~, Klee knows! Just like Miss Sucrose and Mr. Timaeus, Miss Sucrose and Mr. Timaeus will play with Klee and give Klee delicious food!" The little girl nodded innocently, mentioning Albedo's two apprentices.
"Well then, I'll play with Klee in the future, and I'll bring delicious food for Klee. What do you like to eat, Klee?" Wang Daoyi asked.
"Fish, Klee likes fish. Klee always gets locked up by the Acting Grand Master because of blowing up fish, but fish is very delicious, so it's worth it!" Klee replied.
"Then next time I'll bring grilled fish for Klee to eat!" Wang Dao Yi promised.
"Great~~" With a pat on Klee's little head, Albedo put Klee down.
"Klee, we're going out now. Hurry up and get your little backpack!" Albedo said to Klee.
Hearing Albedo's words, Klee, who was inside the confinement room, began to tidy up various things, running around.
With dangerous items packed into her backpack.
For the first time, Wang Daoyi truly felt why the Knights of Favonius were so nervous about Klee.
If this little girl went all out, it would indeed be difficult to predict her destructive power.
[Truly worthy of being Mondstadt's number one combat power!]
With Klee, who had packed her bombs, and Wang Daoyi, Albedo didn't go to the Snow Mountain Laboratory. Instead, he took them to the alchemy laboratory next to the library of the Knights of Favonius.
This was a laboratory that was not open to the public. Various precision instruments were neatly arranged inside, some emitting elemental halos, indicating their extraordinary status.
"This is Lisa's laboratory, but sometimes I also come here to experiment. As long as I tidy up before leaving, Miss Lisa is still very easy to talk to." Albedo explained.
Meanwhile, Klee had already been running around the laboratory.
Don't underestimate her because she's small. In some aspects of experimentation, she was probably better than many alchemy masters.
"Today, I must make smokeless boom-boom bombs, so Acting Grand Master can't catch Klee with ash anymore!" The little girl whispered to herself, unaware that Wang Daoyi and Albedo were watching her making bombs on one side.
"Klee's mother, Miss Alice, is a powerful adventurer, so Klee also has a strong 'adventurous' spirit!" Albedo explained weakly, then took Wang Daoyi to another workbench. "Come, let's leave this side to Klee, and we'll go to the other workbench."
Albedo wasn't worried about Klee failing in her experiments, nor was he worried that Klee would be injured by the explosions during her experiments.
As the only one with PvP immunity in Teyvat, Klee's luck could make even Bennett despair. Even if this laboratory exploded, it probably wouldn't harm Klee.
So, while Klee made bombs on one side, the cute little girl, and Wang Daoyi, on the other side, Albedo and Wang Daoyi discussed the new crystal shield elemental bottle.
For a brief moment, there was a sense of calm in the laboratory.
