Chapter 143: The combination of tsundere and natural
Seeing Bennett's self-destructive attitude, everyone was helpless and lent their luck to Bennett.
Bennett felt the tangible thoughts of the crowd, and couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat and tears in his eyes.
Yes, no matter how bad his luck is, what can he do? He still has so many good friends who care about him and love him. They are always by his side, giving him endless support and encouragement. These friendships are like warm sunshine, illuminating the darkest corners of his heart; they are also like sweet spring water, nourishing his long-dried soul.
"Woo...Okay, with everyone's luck, we will definitely be able to get down the mountain!"
Bennett took out a treasure-hunting crow seal and threw it up skillfully. "Throw a treasure-hunting crow seal to test it... Hmm! The reverse side is exactly the opposite of what I guessed!"
Paimon asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Can this thing be used to predict fortune? And why are you so happy when you guessed wrong?"
Bennett explained cheerfully, "It has positive and negative sides, and there is a 50% chance of guessing positive and negative each time. The essence of luck is probability, which means that as long as the unlucky part is used up, the rest is the lucky part!! For example, as long as the Crow Seal fails, it is equivalent to using up the bad luck, and the probability of encountering good things next time will increase."
Paimon looked at Ying and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Hey, what he said doesn't make any sense at all, why don't you criticize him!"
Ying said seriously: "After all, he is not you, and I am very polite to outsiders."
Paimon couldn't help but roll his eyes at her. Don't I know whether you are polite or not?
At this time, Bennett loudly announced to everyone, "Everyone, I guessed the Crow Seal wrong just now, so we should be able to return to the camp successfully!"
Paimon looked at Bennett's eager expression and couldn't help but said, "Could it be..."
Bennett was walking towards a small path with a confident look on his face, muttering to himself, "Let me try it, this must be the right path, right?" He quickened his pace as he spoke.
The others watched Bennett walk further and further away, and they couldn't help but feel a little worried. However, at this moment, something unexpected happened - with a "thump", Bennett actually fell down!
Everyone was stunned, their eyes widened, unable to believe what was happening before their eyes. How could Bennett, who was so confident just now, suddenly fall down?
"Wow!! Ouch... my butt hurts... why is there a piece of broken ice here!"
Ying helplessly held her forehead
Albedo's eyes were also filled with astonishment, and he murmured to himself: "This is really incredible... It's simply a miracle in misfortune!"
Eula shook her head helplessly and said, "I usually don't believe these things, but Bennett is really amazing."
Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she quickly warned Amber, "Amber, if you encounter a task that requires cooperation with Bennett in the future, and encounter a similar situation, do not act rashly, and be sure to wait for me to come and support you."
Hearing this, Amber was obviously stunned for a moment, but still nodded reflexively: "Huh? Okay, okay..."
[Cole: What a terrible bad luck]
[Xiaogong: Bennett, I will share my good luck with you, don't worry]
[Bennett: This is nothing, I'm used to it]
[Yae Shenzi: If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed that someone could be so unlucky.]
[Bennett: Although I am unlucky, I have made a group of friends who care about me. Maybe this is my luck.]
[Ningguang: Using a lifetime of good luck to exchange for a group of close friends... is also a sure win.]
[Keqing: Please don’t show affection in front of us. I suggest you do it at noon. It’s afternoon now.]
[Alice: A sour smell]
[Amber: Hey! This is just caring for each other, not showing off affection]
[Paimon: Isn't this something that the entire Mondstadt knows? Amber and Eula eat, wear, live and travel together.]
[Eula: No! I have always lived in the Knights’ Order.]
[Klee: Klee can testify that Sister Amber and Sister Eula do not live together, but they always make strange noises at night.]
【Qin: !!!】
[Lisa: Ahem, be more careful next time]
[Amber: That's the new game I developed! ]
[Alice: Sister La, don’t pull! ]
...
Ying looked at the exhausted expressions on their faces and couldn't help but feel sympathy for them. She said softly, "You have all worked so hard during this period."
Hearing this, Amber raised her hand and rubbed her swollen forehead, and replied with a wry smile: "Now that you mention it, I do feel a little tired... It really took a lot of energy to climb over mountains and cross rivers all the way."
Albedo suggested sympathetically: "Since everyone is already tired, why don't you go to my camp and rest for a while."
Paimon nodded repeatedly and muttered, "I've been through so many things just now, I'm so sleepy. Now I just want to drink a bowl of steaming hot soup and then have a good sleep..." As she fantasized, she closed her eyes unconsciously with a satisfied smile on her lips.
When Amber heard Paimon mention the word "sleepy", she couldn't help but yawn and murmured weakly: "Huh - I'm suddenly so sleepy..."
Eula looked at Amber with a worried look on her face. She quickly said to the others, "If this continues, Amber might really fall asleep on the cold snow... Everyone, we can't just sit there and wait for death! Let's go to Albedo's camp to rest for a while, and then find another way down the mountain after we pack up."
Albedo walked in front of the team, leading Amber and his group back to their camp, and said in a calm and gentle tone: "Okay, we're here. Everyone, please make yourselves at ease."
Amber looked at the simple camp with an embarrassed expression. There were very few cold-proof and warm facilities here. If she slept here, news would probably spread in Mond tomorrow that the scout knight Amber had frozen to death in the snowy mountains.
Albedo seemed to have realized the problem as well, "Oh... yeah, I forgot there aren't that many chairs in the camp. Please wait a moment."
As he spoke, he took out a small drawing board from somewhere and started writing and drawing.
Paimon couldn't help but whisper, "What is he doing? Drawing?"
Amber nodded, also a little surprised. She didn't know why she had to draw?
After all, Eula was born into a noble family and knew a little about alchemy. She stroked her chin and muttered, "Draw a chair..." Wait, after drawing it, use alchemy to turn it into a real object? Is it possible?"
As Albedo painted, he explained: "My paintings can be seen as a blueprint, and then alchemy is used to skip the manufacturing process. It's just a very low-level technique. After enough research and experiments, this kind of technique can even be extended to the creation of living things."
Seeing this, everyone did not hesitate to put forward their own requests.
[Keqing: Is alchemy so useful? ]
[Alice: Oh, these are very basic things. Advanced ones are generally not useful.]
[Ningguang: If I could materialize the Jade Pavilion…]
[Paimon: You say that the Jade Pavilion is not a weapon, but you don’t feel bad at all when you smash it. Now you want to sell it wholesale on a large scale…]
[Yan Fei: No one would complain about having too much wealth. The more high-yield weapons like this, the better. If we encounter Beast Realm Hounds or something like that, we can blow them up and kill a lot of them. Besides, Mond still has Klee. We need to build some. She can just rub them with her hands.]
[Klee: Hehe, although I’m very tired, Klee is very happy because I can help Captain Jean]
[Navia: Our Fontaine is not bad either, with long-range cannons]
[Nashida: Alas, Xumi doesn't have many resources to use. We still have to rely on Elhaisen and Senor. It's better not to involve Lanaro.]
[Paimon: Where's Ah Mao? ]
[Nashida: After all, he is from Inazuma, and he will return there one day.]
[Amao: I won’t go back]
[Yae Shenzi: Oh, now that Da Pao has a stepmother, he has completely forgotten about his aunt and his otaku mother. My heart is so painful.]
【film:….】
[Paimon: My adoptive mother, the Ice Queen, didn’t say anything]
[Ice Queen: What a despicable fox. I finally saw it today.]
...
Four armchairs and a bench appeared abruptly next to the campfire, as if they had always been there.
Bennett could no longer contain his excitement and exclaimed, "Wow, there really is a chair! This is amazing! Oh my God, this place is so convenient, I almost want to live here!"
Compared to Bennett's excitement, Albedo seemed unusually calm. He responded calmly, "If you like, it's not a bad idea to stay here tonight."
After saying this, he looked up at the sky outside the cave, and then said, "There is still some time before dinner time, so you may as well take a rest first. I will go and take care of the fire."
Hearing this, Amber hurriedly said, "How can you let Albedo be busy all by yourself? I can help you, please allow me to assist you!"
Albedo did not reject Amber's kindness. He nodded slightly and turned to prepare food for everyone. Amber, Eula and Bennett stayed in the camp to handle some chores within their ability, such as cleaning the environment, watching over the stove and boiling water, etc.
Ying also felt bored, so she chatted with everyone for a while.
Soon the food was ready and everyone had a delicious meal.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Bennett fell asleep sitting on a chair. The other five also sat on chairs and chatted, talking about trivial matters.
Paimon looked at the sleeping Bennett and was curious whether he would talk in his sleep.
"Um... Um, Dad, I don't want to eat apples... I want fried meat with honey sauce and carrots and fisherman's toast..."
Eula looked at Amber. Isn’t that Amber’s favorite dish?
Amber did not deny it, "You know, Traveler, when I first met Eula, I often took her to the Deer Hunter for dinner. Later, when Sarah saw our faces, she would directly put the dishes we often ordered into the pot. She said that we always ordered the same dishes and she had memorized them!"
"She also said that if everyone in Mondstadt ordered food like us, her job would be much easier. She would just have to memorize the dishes that everyone likes..."
Eula coughed a few times and signaled Amber to stop talking.
Paimon couldn't help but sigh: "You always eat together, you have a really good relationship. The Traveler and I also eat together, this is probably a symbol of friendship!"
Eula said stubbornly, "We were just having a meal together. It doesn't mean we have any relationship problems."
Albedo showed a meaningful smile: "There is still a difference between one meal and many meals."
Paimon couldn't help but say, "I found out! Whenever Eula doesn't want to admit something, she will raise her chin or put her hands on her hips."
Amber was a little surprised. It turned out that everyone had noticed it! Sure enough, Eula's characteristics were easy to catch.
Eula couldn't stand this weird and depressing atmosphere, so she stood up suddenly and said stiffly: "Now that it's break time, I should have the right to move freely, right? Well, everyone, I still have to go to the ice lake, so I'll have to leave you first."
After saying that, without waiting for anyone else to respond, she turned around and left, leaving everyone in shock.
Seeing Eula turning around and leaving, Amber got anxious and quickly got up and chased after her, shouting, "Are you still going to take an ice bath so late? Wait a minute! Wait for me!"
"Don't you want to go to bed? Stay and rest."
"I'd better stay with you. It's so late and dark around here. You're not as good at finding your way as I am. It's better for us to go together."
[Alice: Lily is infinitely good...]
[Amber: This isn't some lesbian thing. I have a good relationship with Eula and Cole. It makes sense for us to take a bath together, right?]
[Xiangling: I don’t understand you Monds. You don’t take hot showers but take ice baths instead.]
[Eula: Taking a cold bath can relax me, but I guess I can’t take it recently.]
[Kaeya: Beware of passing travelers...]
[Ying: I am on my way to Nata, preparing for the upcoming war mobilization]
[Yae Miko: A combination of a tsundere and an innocent, this is what the latest light novel is about, it will definitely be a big hit]
[Alice: It’s time for me to retire. This border is already very unstable. I don’t think that woman will say anything.]
【Xianyun: How dare you, woman!】
[Ganyu: Master Zhenjun, calm down. Ms. Alice is not talking about you.]
...
In order to avoid disturbing Bennett who was resting, the remaining few people decided to leave the room without hesitation and find something else to pass the time.
It happened that when he met Albedo during the day, he mentioned that he wanted to learn painting skills, so they went to a large open space together and prepared to start learning painting.
