"Lumine, do you want to join the Adventurers' Guild?" Yu Jin looked at Lumine, considering recruiting her.
As the center of the storm, Yu Jin was very much looking forward to Lumine's future experiences.
Lumine pondered his words; Yu Jin's suggestion was indeed good. She had just arrived in Mondstadt with nothing, and being an Adventurer could earn her some Mora without hindering her travels.
"Okay, okay, Lumine, let's agree to Yu Jin! If we become Adventurers, we can earn so much Mora and eat so many delicious things. Hehehe..."
Paimon was much more excited than Lumine herself upon hearing Yu Jin's words. He was already imagining days of feasting.
Lumine looked at Paimon's excited expression, a slight smile gracing her lips. She nodded at Yu Jin and said,
"I was planning to! But not yet. I need to help the Knights of Favonius cut off the source of the storm. Could I trouble you to note down my name, Senior Yu Jin?"
Lumine smiled as she looked at Yu Jin. If Yu Jin was really as good as everyone said, then having such a senior would be truly wonderful.
"Of course, the Adventurers' Guild welcomes new members. Even if you didn't call me 'Senior,' I would still do it." Yu Jin also smiled and nodded. It seemed that there would be no shortage of fun in the days to come... After bidding farewell to Lumine and her companions, Yu Jin and Cyrus resumed their roles as 'door gods.' They stood one on each side of Katheryne, making her eyelids twitch with irritation.
To prevent Katheryne from going berserk, Yu Jin wisely left the Adventurers' Guild's reception area.
It had been a while since he last entrusted Sucrose with a task, so he could go check on its progress.
Thus, Yu Jin set off, quickly arriving at the Alchemist's Crafting Bench in Mondstadt Square.
However, this time it wasn't Sucrose, but the eternally unchanged Timaeus.
"Yu Jin? You're here for those strange large bottles, aren't you?" Timaeus saw Yu Jin rushing over and immediately knew his intention.
Sucrose had put all her effort into Yu Jin's commission during this period. Such intensity was usually only seen when Sucrose's experiments made progress.
"Yes! Is it ready?" Yu Jin nodded. If it was ready so quickly, he would have to re-evaluate Mondstadt's alchemy prowess.
Perfume bottles might look simple, but making them was another matter entirely. Not to mention Yu Jin wanted an enlarged version.
"Of course, besides Sucrose, Master Albedo also participated. How could it not be fast?" Timaeus rolled out a pile of enlarged perfume bottles from the warehouse behind the workshop.
Albedo? Yu Jin thought for a moment. He seemed to be the investigation captain of the Knights of Favonius and was very skilled in alchemy.
Yu Jin didn't think much further. He thanked him and stored these large perfume bottles within his body.
This made Timaeus, who was watching, marvel. Yu Jin had no Vision, yet he could store items, which was quite magical.
However, Timaeus didn't ask anything. There were enough problems in alchemy; he had no mind to care about Yu Jin's mysterious aspects.
He's a Great Adventurer, isn't it normal to have some special abilities?
Yu Jin put away the large perfume bottles and quickly ran back outside Mondstadt City. No matter what he was experimenting with, it was always better with fewer people around.
He didn't want the residents of Mondstadt to be stuck under a large glass dome and be too excited to sleep all night.
Soon, Yu Jin ran back to the place where he had taught Bennett and his companions inner techniques. This place was sparsely populated and vast, making it perfectly suitable.
Yu Jin took out a large perfume bottle and stood it upright. He looked at the perfume bottle, which was almost as tall as him, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then he began further processing. This batch of perfume bottles was still just glass bottles; to maximize the effect of the potion, some inscribed arrays were definitely indispensable.
However, these were not difficult for Yu Jin. He turned his finger into a blade, and fine, solid magic seeped from his fingertip, carving pattern after pattern onto the surface of the perfume bottle.
As Yu Jin's final stroke fell, the array on the perfume bottle immediately flashed with a burst of blue light. However, they quickly disappeared into the bottle, making the patterns look like mere decorations.
Yu Jin turned the perfume bottle around, feeling very satisfied. So he eagerly added the long-prepared powder into the perfume bottle.
As soon as the powder entered the perfume bottle, it underwent some peculiar change with the bottle itself. They began to emit a faint glow as soon as they entered the perfume bottle.
The powder itself also began to show signs of seeping into the bottle. Yu Jin understood when he saw this scene.
For perfume potions, the perfume bottle itself and the potion are both indispensable.
Looking at the somewhat shimmering Super Invigorating Aroma before him, Yu Jin was a little surprised. Why hadn't he noticed Invigorating Aroma shining so much before?
Ignoring everything else, Yu Jin now only wanted to test the effect of his Super Invigorating Aroma.
Yu Jin picked up the perfume bottle and began to shake it vigorously. The potion inside was thus activated, and an intoxicating fragrance began to emanate from the bottle.
Seeing that the time was right, Yu Jin removed the stopper and then began to spin the smooth belly of the perfume bottle in all directions.
"Buzz~" As soon as the Invigorating Aroma was sprinkled out, a peculiar change occurred. The originally grayish-white powder became brilliant, and a captivating fragrance immediately appeared in the clearing.
However, none of this was the most astonishing. The effect Yu Jin truly wanted was a large-scale buff.
And this bottle of Super Invigorating Aroma, on which he placed great hopes, did not disappoint him. Because the golden light extended for a full hundred meters, they were like a brilliant nebula, descending upon the earth, bestowing blessings.
Yu Jin, bathed in the golden light, was very satisfied. This way, he wouldn't have to run around sprinkling medicine with a small perfume bottle.
The duration of the Invigorating Aroma, with its super-doubled dosage, was also super-doubled. Yu Jin bathed in the golden light for a long time, but there was no sign of it dissipating.
So he directly began inscribing arrays and filling the bottles within the golden light. Even though the light formed by the Invigorating Aroma somewhat obstructed his Vision, this was not difficult for Yu Jin.
Soon, several bottles of Invigorating Aroma, each as tall as a person, were filled. It seemed these Invigorating Aromas should be able to cover the entire battle.
Yu Jin put away the Invigorating Aroma. He looked at the still gloomy Sky, feeling it was still early, and he wanted to find Stormterror.
Don't look at how enthusiastically he was working now, but he didn't even know Stormterror's location. It would be quite amusing if they set off grandly only to not find the main target.
Without further ado, Yu Jin calmed down and began to search for traces of Stormterror. Soon, he felt a strong concentration of Anemo element.
Yu Jin opened his eyes, thinking that must be where Stormterror was... Temple of the Thousand Winds, an ancient ruin rarely visited by people. Yu Jin had been here before, but when he came a second time, he found that the originally spacious temple square was somewhat crowded.
The reason for the crowding was, of course, that Stormterror had occupied the Temple of the Thousand Winds.
Although the Temple of the Thousand Winds was spacious enough, it still seemed somewhat small given Stormterror's huge size.
At this moment, Yu Jin was crouching behind a piece of wreckage, observing Stormterror.
The large creature was currently resting with his eyes tightly closed, and the huge purple blood clot on his back exuded an ominous aura.
But what concerned Yu Jin the most were the Abyss Mages surrounding Stormterror.
Yu Jin had also dealt with Abyss Mages before, but those were solitary wanderers. He had never seen a group of Abyss Mages like those around Stormterror.
His intuition told Yu Jin that these guys, who dealt with monsters every day, were likely responsible for Stormterror's current state.
However, it was just a group of Abyss Mages, completely within Yu Jin's predicted range of power changes.
After watching for a while, Yu Jin intended to retreat directly. But clearly, those Abyss Mages were not to be trifled with.
"#$? !" A language even more incomprehensible than Hilichurlian came from the Abyss Mage's mouth, and the sleeping Stormterror immediately opened his huge eyes and looked in Yu Jin's direction.
Their gazes met, and Yu Jin saw anger in Stormterror's eyes.
