Chapter 34 A bold idea(1/2)

Wendy lay on the table and stared blankly at the Sky Piano.

"The rosewood with flowing wind patterns and the cool star iron strings are really nostalgic!"

Wendy sighed.

"How about it? Can I use it to call Tevalin now?" Captain Qin asked.

Wendy brushed her hand over the strings and felt them carefully.

"Sorry, we can't do it now." Wendy said with a little regret.

"Huh? Wendy, are you kidding us?" Pamon said angrily.

"No, no." Wendy immediately waved her hand and said.

"Although this is a genuine Fengshen treasure, I'm afraid it still won't work now."

"As you can see, after thousands of years, the power of the wind has long been exhausted."

"Moreover, the rosewood that makes up the body of the Sky Piano also has some wear and tear." Wendy picked up the Sky Piano.

"In this state, it might be okay to sing in Diluc's tavern..." Wendy said half-jokingly.

"How about it? Master Diluc? Do you want to invite me to sing?" Wendy looked at Diluc.

"There are also a lot of bards bidding for the performance slots in the tavern. Don't take it for granted." Diluc crossed his arms.

"Uh...is that the point?" Eve said.

"So, you just stole the Sky Piano and played it for drunkards?" Paimon complained to Wendy.

"Hey!" Wendy showed a cute smile to Paimon.

"Hey, what do you mean?" Paimon said in shock.

"In short, if you want to communicate with Tevalin, you must complete the two difficult problems in front of you." Wendy said seriously.

"The first is to replenish the wind element power in the strings of the Sky Piano, and the second is to repair the body of the Sky Piano."

"If I can replenish my elemental power, can my God's Eye work?" Qin asked.

"Not really." Wendy denied.

"What is missing in the strings is the divine power of wind, which cannot be filled by the elemental power of ordinary people." Wendy explained.

"What should we do?" Paimon asked aloud.

"It's your turn, Ying." Wendy held out her hand to Ying.

"Me? I don't have any experience with musical instruments!" Ying said doubtfully.

"Oh, no, I want you to bring out the purified dragon tears." Wendy explained.

"Can Dragon Tears...can repair the wind power in the Sky Piano?" Paimon asked doubtfully.

"Of course, Tevarin is a descendant of the God of Wind, so of course his tears have the power of the God of Wind." Wendy continued.

"Come on, drop your tears on the strings of the Sky Piano." Wendy guided Ying.

Ying took out the two purified teardrops from her backpack.

"Is this...the stone I've seen in the office before?" Qin looked at the stone that had turned into blue in shock.

"But wasn't it red before?" Qin asked aloud.

"That's because our honorary knight purified them." Wendy pointed at the screen.

"That's really magical." Qin looked at Ying with a hint of emphasis.

Ying dropped her tears on the strings.

Suddenly, the color of the Sky Piano became mellow.

"Qin seems to have a... feeling of youthfulness?" Qin said while looking at the piano in the sky.

"The leader is praising himself!" Eve said looking at Qin.

"Uh... Little Eve, I'm talking about the Qin in the Sky!" Qin was a bit dumbfounded.

"Well, it's very good, but it still needs some distance before it can be recharged." Wendy took the piano and felt it carefully.

"Then we still need some teardrops now." Diluc said.

"That's right, it will be up to you to look for it again." Wendy said with a smile to everyone.

Eve rolled her eyes at him at this time.

Good guy, filling the piano in the sky is something that only requires you to do something with your hands, so why bother now?

Eve complained in her heart.

"So, come on, I will send you off with a beautiful song." Wendy said with narrowed eyes.

"Eh? Are you trying to be lazy and just say something?" Paimon reacted immediately.

"No, no, no, you need to use your hands to play the piano! So you have more than one mouth." Wendy retorted.

"Ah, I'm so angry! I decided to give you an unpleasant nickname." Pamon stomped his feet in anger.

"Well...it's decided, I'll ask you to be a singer from now on." Paimon folded his arms and covered his mouth.

"Okay Paimon, don't be angry with him. It's better for us to solve the problem first." Ying said to smooth things over.

"Hey, wait a minute. Speaking of teardrop red ones, I bought a few of them on the black market before." Diluc thought about it carefully and said.

"Really?" Paimon asked.

Everyone looked at Diluc in surprise.

"Well, I bought it casually during the competition with the Fools." Diluc said indifferently.

"Competition?" Paimon asked doubtfully.

"Ahem, it's a long story." Qin coughed softly.

"Well, half a year ago, a group of treasure thieves dug out a treasure from the Dongfeng ruins in the Four Winds Temple."

"Is it the cup from which Barbatos, the god of wind, drinks?" Eve joked.

"Ahem..." Wendy Tactics coughed a few times.

"No. Although if there is such a thing, it would be very precious." Diluc continued.

"How much is it worth?" Eve asked with gleaming eyes.

"Well...probably...there should be one million Mora." Diluc thought for a while and said.

"Really?" Eve looked at Wendy with something wrong in her eyes.

She has a bold idea...

"Wait a minute, that kind of thing has disappeared with time!" Wendy said immediately.

"That's true." Diluc thought for a moment and said.

That kind of thing exists, but it can't be preserved to this day.

"Okay, let's continue talking about the topic we just talked about." Diluc brought the topic back.

"The antiquities unearthed just now are the most difficult to obtain among all possible antiquities."

"That treasure is a sealed vial containing a breath of the wind god."

"So there are cultural relics in this form!" Paimon said in surprise.

"Yes, of course I would like to add such an artistic creation to my collection," Diluc continued.

"What's the result?" Paimon asked.

"Unfortunately, after the news spread, fools coveted the divine power and began to compete with me."

"Those guys, they produce a lot of fake goods and put them on the market everywhere." Diluc said with some disdain.

"Then what should Master Diluc do?" Paimon continued to ask.

"My way of coping is simple."

"That is, no matter whether it is true or false, I bought them all, and we have been in a stalemate with them until today." Diluc said indifferently.

It seems to be the same as the cost of buying a large number of fakes.

"Then, that's really inhumane!" Eve was shocked in her heart.

"Oh my god, buying so many fakes is enough for me to drink for countless years." Wendy said in shock.

"I've seen at least 2,000 bottles of fakes and they haven't found the real thing yet."

"Wow...it sounds like you two are really crazy." Pamon said in shock.

"But, that being said...if we go to the black market now, is it still possible to buy genuine products?"

Paimon immediately made a small calculation in his mind.

"Then, then I will use...well, the friendly price to transfer the genuine product to you." Paimon said cunningly.
