Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide

There are many ancient texts in desert ruins.

The civilization of the Red King is prosperous. Even now, many years after the death of the Red King, the civilization he left behind is still valuable for exploration.

There are many things in the Red King's Mausoleum, such as the array of mechanisms, ancient writings on stone tablets... Many of these things are very different to what today's scholars see today.

Therefore, there are many scholars in the Teaching Academy who have aimed their research at the Red King Civilization. They go to the desert, find ruins, explore in depth, and finally find the part that is hidden in the vast civilization, interpret, record, and spread it to the next civilization.

——That’s how it should be.

But those ruins are too dangerous.

For many scholars in the Order Academy who are intelligent but frail, walking in the desert is enough to be fatal, let alone surviving in the ruins that are full of dangers.

and so……

"In short, that's what happened." Candice said, "The scholar disappeared into the unknown ruins together with the accompanying mercenaries. His mentor was so distraught that he fainted twice. I couldn't leave... So what happens next , I’ll have to trouble you.”

The scholar came to the village with his mentor. Il had met them. Unfortunately, they were from the Epistemology sect. Il and they had no suitable topics to talk about, so they did not have in-depth communication.

She knew that they came to the desert to study the strange ancient writings that appeared in the nameless ruins, but for now - they might have encountered some danger.

It is a desert after all.

El was not surprised.

When he went to dig the grave at the place where the demon god fell, he narrowly escaped death.

But she was a little surprised - Traveler and Seno were powerful enough to save people, but she... what was she going to do?

El opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time, but Seno nodded directly in response to Candice's request: "Okay, leave it to us."

On the way back to prepare, El couldn't help but ask: "Seno, why did you ask me to come with you?"

Seno turned to look at her, his eyes full of serious requests: "El, can you help us decipher the mechanisms of the desert ruins?"

Neither the scholar nor the accompanying mercenaries have come out yet. There are just two situations.

One is to die in an accident.

Another way is to be trapped in the ruins mechanism and unable to get out.

If it's the former, Seno will collect the bodies for them as much as possible; if it's the latter, neither he nor the travelers are good at solving puzzles on this trip, so Il is crucial.

He knew El's character quite well, and his proficiency in saying these words was simply outrageous.

"If it's El, it must be okay, right?"

Just like how they were studied to seal the power of Hermanubis in the Suron sect's laboratory when they were children, Il had already shown a talent that amazed Teacher Kyulesh at a young age, even if he switched to join the Shengron sect. After studying, she became the leader without any controversy and made many jaw-dropping achievements.

It's a genius.

He is a genius beyond common sense.

Caught off guard by being so trusted, El coughed slightly, the tips of his ears turning slightly red.

"Just, even if you say that..."

Staring at her with red eyes, facing the sincere plea, the researcher coughed and looked away a little uncomfortably.

Well, although ancient characters and ruins are the research content of the Zhiron sect and the Myoron sect respectively, who calls her a scholar who has dabbled in many things.

Although those years thousands of years ago were not glorious, she had at least walked through the desert ruins a few times, and even dug the grave of the fallen demon god.

It was only a matter of decrypting the ruins, but he still had some foresight and did not seek help from others.

So she agreed.

The departure time was that afternoon. After all, time waits for no one. After the travelers and Paimon arrived, the group set off.

I don't know how those scholars who could run found such a place. It was even more remote than the Red King's Tomb. When they arrived, they found that only a small flat roof of the ruins was exposed.

The mechanism outside the flat roof has been unlocked. Going down the hanging ladder, you will see a long corridor as dark as ink.

——It is a darkness with no end.

There is no light at all.

Several people were silent, the sound of breathing could be heard, and the chest was suddenly hurt by the noisy heart.

El's pupils shrank and she froze. Her whole body was motionless, her steps seemed to be nailed in place. Her fingertips began to tremble uncontrollably, and her whole body couldn't help feeling panicked.

This was a conditioned reflex that suddenly arose before her rationality. Physically, her heartbeat accelerated, as if an invisible hand was clutching her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.

The next moment, a warm and rough hand covered hers.

Seno's voice sounded in his ears, with a reassuring emotion: "Don't be afraid."

The next moment, the traveler lit a torch nearby.

Seeing the beam of fire dancing faintly in the darkness, El took a deep breath, resisted turning her head to look at him, calmed down her mood, and said, "I'm not afraid...why don't you leave?"

Sainuo looked at her pale face. After a while, he swallowed "But you don't look good", and then silently tightened his grip on her hand, providing her with a steady stream of heat and strength to support her.

"Yeah." He responded, "I'm afraid."

The traveler looked back at him in surprise.

Seno said without changing his expression: "I'm not good at exploring unknown ruins, and I always feel a little panicked, so El, I need you."

Such words are really clumsy, the traveler silently thought to himself, will anyone really listen to this?

In fact, under normal circumstances, El could definitely tell how clumsy Seno's lies were, but in such a dark corridor, she was so shocked that she had not yet recovered her ability to think.

Seno knew her character well and gave her a step in the direction that was most acceptable to her. She stepped on it and said with a trembling voice: "Since you are so scared, I don't mind holding your hand. "

But it was she who breathed a sigh of relief.

El took the initiative to tighten his grip.

A slight smile appeared in Sano's eyes: "Okay."

The traveler looked at it for a while, then suddenly realized something, turned his eyes silently, and started exploring the road ahead again.

Paimon, who originally flew with him, was unwilling to walk in front. Her fear was visible at a glance, so she also flew to El's side and carefully held a corner of her clothes.

"Y-El...I'm a little scared too, can I hold you?"

Before El could answer, Paimon suddenly met Seno's gaze in a blink of an eye.

He didn't speak, nor was he angry. The calmness in his eyes was the same as before, and the red color was so dazzling under the bright and dancing light of the fire.

Paimon suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, and she subconsciously let go of the corner of El's clothes: "Haha, I, I suddenly don't-" She was afraid.

"Of course." Miss Researcher said, unconsciously reaching out her other hand to hold Paimon, "Let's go."

Paimon felt like a light on his back, and his whole body felt very sluggish.

The traveler in front suddenly raised his hand to cover half of his face, and then sighed deeply.

Following the clues of the missing scholar found on the road, I walked all the way to the front. The long corridor came to an end, but there was no extended road.

——This is a dead end.

But how is it possible?

"There must be some mechanism." El inspected the surrounding walls, trying to find some different places, "It can't be a dead end..."

Otherwise, the missing scholars and accompanying mercenaries should be found here.

And even if it is an unknown ruin, it is impossible to design such a strange dead end.

According to her understanding of the followers of the Red King, such a clumsy mechanism design is undoubtedly an insult to the Red King in their eyes.

El didn't understand that group of people. She looked at the Red King with all her own subjectivity and prejudice. She only felt that the Red King that those people believed in was a guy with some kind of brain problem and still being superior.

Ordinary people spend their entire lives begging for his mercy, sacrificing humans and animals, building many minarets and ruins... everything they can do in their lives is not worth even the value of lowering their eyes to the gods.

While thinking this, she looked for the mechanism.

"Click".

A soft sound.

Thanks to his experience in digging graves, Il quickly found the difference. After a while, the original dead end wall suddenly cracked two gaps in the middle. The next moment, a door with a shape very characteristic of desert ruins appeared. The "door" was opened.

A hanging ladder leading to a lower place appeared in front of everyone.
