Genshin Impact: Starting from Liyue to Build Infrastructure

Takumi had a very clear understanding of Lumine.

Since she came looking for him, there had to be something important. If it was nothing serious, she wouldn't have come.

Hearing Takumi's question, Lumine nodded. "I do have something for you."

"I'd like to borrow your pass. I'm going to visit Inazuma."

She explained her reason for coming.

Takumi was a little surprised when he heard this. "To Inazuma? Are you going to master the Electro element?"

Takumi looked at her suspiciously. Was she planning to resonate with the statue there?

Lumine nodded quickly. "Right! I intend to master the Electro element. Then, I'll head to Sumeru next door and master the Dendro element as well. This way, my strength can improve significantly."

She wasn't hiding anything. Her goal now was to master more elements, which would allow her to earn money faster.

Hearing her reasoning, Takumi didn't refuse. After thinking for a moment, an idea suddenly came to him. He immediately manifested a space ring.

Seeing the ring Takumi took out, Lumine was puzzled. "Hand out your hand."

Upon hearing this, Lumine hesitated but still stretched out her hand obediently. Takumi then placed the ring on her finger.

The moment Lumine saw the ring on her hand, she suddenly realized—goodness! Was he proposing to her?

This made Lumine blush as she stared at Takumi.

To be honest, seeing Lumine blushing was quite a rare sight, but now wasn't the time to dwell on that.

"This is a piece of spatial equipment," Takumi explained. "I have a task for you. Since you're heading to Inazuma, please help me record all of Inazuma's teleportation anchor points. Do the same for Sumeru as well. Of course, I'll pay you."

Hearing this, Lumine let out a sigh of relief. So it wasn't a marriage proposal.

Wait, why was she disappointed?

"How much?" she asked.

On the other hand, Paimon became excited the moment Takumi mentioned money. "How much are you offering?"

"One thousand mora per teleportation anchor recorded."

As soon as Takumi named the price, Lumine, seemingly afraid he would change his mind, immediately agreed without hesitation. "Deal!"

It was practically free money.

Seeing her enthusiasm, Takumi smirked. "Well, it's settled then. I'll leave it to you. Now, go record those teleportation anchors, Lumine!"

With their deal finalized, Lumine set off immediately, hopping onto her bike and taking Paimon with her. She headed straight for the nearest teleportation anchor, preparing to teleport to Inazuma.

Watching her departure, Takumi didn't think much of it. Instead, he prepared to head to work.

As soon as Takumi arrived at the General Affairs Department, Nuwa's voice suddenly came from his phone.

[Master Takumi, the wanted criminal has been spotted.]

[Should I notify the Qianyan Army for an arrest?]

As Nuwa spoke, a surveillance camera feed appeared on Takumi's mobile phone.

Takumi looked at the screen and suddenly found himself at a loss for words.

At this moment, Childe was sneaking around like a common thief, cautiously moving through alleyways as if looking for someone.

"This guy... what a pitiful sight," Takumi muttered to himself, barely suppressing his laughter. "He's really fallen to this level?"

"No need to inform the Qianyan Army," Takumi instructed. "Just keep an eye on him and see who he's looking for. Although, I bet he's going to Zhongli."

"The old man's wallet is back. No need to worry about it."

As he spoke, Takumi paused. Now that he thought about it, Zhongli's fortune had seemed particularly good lately.

Shaking his head, he dismissed the thought and continued his work at the General Affairs Department.

After handling various affairs, Takumi began reviewing the data Nuwa had copied from the Void System. After just one day, Nuwa had already copied 1% of the data.

Seeing how much remained, Takumi was momentarily speechless. There was so much information.

After pondering for a moment, he issued a command: "Nuwa, filter out irrelevant information. Only download useful knowledge. Also, categorize knowledge into databases with different levels of accessibility. Once everything is properly classified, release the search engine."

Some data was unnecessary and not worth copying. Otherwise, even if Nuwa completed the copying, it could take months to sift through everything.

[Executing command,] Nuwa confirmed.

With Nuwa efficiently sorting the data, Takumi nodded in satisfaction. Then, he turned his attention back to exploring the Void System while absorbing knowledge from it.

This system had been constructed using the power of a Gnosis.

That made Takumi wonder—could he extract its power? Perhaps he could awaken new abilities.

And now that Childe was back in Liyue, the Ice Archon's Gnosis must have been brought along as well.

Takumi smirked. He'd see that guy soon.

With this in mind, Takumi attempted to infiltrate the core of the Void System.

However, the deepest part of the system was guarded by Nahida.

Noticing Takumi's intrusion, Nahida immediately became alarmed.

"Stay back! Don't come any closer!" Nahida shouted, her voice filled with panic. She sounded like a cat with its fur bristling.

Takumi paused for a moment.

Nahida's voice rang out again. "You're definitely not a good person!"

Takumi was confused. Had he just been labeled as a villain by this little Archon?

"Hey, hey! What do you mean by that? I'm a good citizen!"

Nahida snorted. "Would a good person read such rebellious books? I don't believe it!"

"You can copy knowledge, but you're not allowed to come near this place!"

This was her bottom line.

Takumi rolled his eyes. He really didn't know how to respond to that.

After a moment of thought, he spoke again. "Let me research this once, and I'll help you with something later."

"I swear I won't do anything reckless."

"On the other hand, if you don't let me research it, well... I might end up doing something unexpected."

"Nahida, you wouldn't want to see the Void System collapse, would you?"

If being a good guy wouldn't work, then today, he'd play the bad guy!
