Chapter 43: What's Wrong with a Bad Woman? Bad Women Can Be Very Charming Too!

"Their appearance here is proof."

Shi Wa Luo looked at Xi Er and her party, who had fought their way through obstacles and finally arrived before them.

"Shi Wa Luo! The last bill hasn't been settled with you yet!" Xi Er, one hand on her hip, said impatiently, "Pull back the minnows under your command quickly, or don't blame me for being rude!"

"Humans attempting to overturn the calculation results are a huge threat to the lower district's survival strategy."

Shi Wa Luo's red eyes swept over Xing, San Yue Qi and the others; after a brief silence, he suddenly bowed and extended his arm toward Ke La La: "Let's go, Ke La La. An external variable has appeared, the calculation is restarting, and the furnace core nexus needs a guard."

What an impressive robot... Its manufacturing technology seems even more advanced than that of Kan Rui Ya five hundred years ago and the Red King Civilization in the desert.

Inside a café inside and outside the Academy, Fa Lu Shan was sitting with several people, discussing the baffling technologies displayed on the light screen one after another.

"If it's an autonomous defense robot, besides the Ruins Guard, I've seen one in the desert ruins... but its combat power is rather average, not as explosive as Bei Luo Bo Ge's."

Ka Wei, holding a cup of coffee, chattered nonstop: "By the way, can Sumeru produce such a mechanism with 'Artificial Intelligence'?"

Facing Ka Wei's question, Ai Er Hai Sen didn't even bother to lift his head: "You never seem to think before you ask. If Sumeru possessed this technology, your architecture aesthetic that silences investors might be replaced by machines."

Ka Wei suddenly got angry: "What's wrong with my aesthetic? With your pitiful architectural aesthetic reserves of the Zhi Lun school... hehe, no wonder you can't appreciate it..."

"I truly can't appreciate a design that was ordered to be revised twenty times in three days, only to be forced back to the first version."

Ai Er Hai Sen, expressionless, spread his hands: "So, Great Architect, has your grand building plan passed the investors' review this time?"

"... you!"

As if hit right in the bullseye, Ka Wei's face turned ashen with anger, and with a hum he twisted his head away.

"Alright, alright, no fighting. Senior Fa Lu Shan invited us this time to discuss with everyone the feasibility of replicating Bei Luo Bo Ge's robots in Sumeru." Ti Na Li always felt that whenever these two were together, the smell of gunpowder never faded.

"To study robots, why not get two autonomous mechanisms from Mondstadt," Ai Er Hai Sen said calmly, "As for 'Artificial Intelligence'... I've consulted ancient Inazuma texts; their deities seem to have crafted intelligent, sentient dolls centuries ago."

"Inazuma's deities... we probably don't even have the right to ask about that," Ti Na Li said with a wry smile, "Do we in Sumeru have anyone who has a good relationship with Inazuma's deities?"

"Actually, I recall someone..."

"Me too..."

At this moment, Nat—

A certain yellow-haired the Traveler, who had just been coaxed by the great shaman into a smoky trance, couldn't help but sneeze; she looked up blankly, feeling as if somewhere far away, a blue exclamation mark would suddenly appear on the map.

"Shi Wa Luo left a huge 'fat' robot to fight Xing and his party, while he himself departed with Ke La La."

"Although it took a bit of effort, that big fellow was ultimately no match for a few people and was quickly smashed to scrap."

"That little girl in red..." Xing said, looking toward Shi Wa Luo's departing direction, "Shall we chase?"

"You mean Ke La La?" Xi Er said with an indifferent face, "No need to worry; that girl seems to have a good relationship with Shi Wa Luo, always trailing him. Shi Wa Luo won't hurt her. The priority is still to find the leader first."

"—No need to look for me everywhere, Xi Er." A wild Ao Lie Ge leader suddenly appeared not far away, walking over with a few Geo people: "Well done, Xi Er, I originally thought we'd have to wage a prolonged battle against these robots."

Seeing that the few Geo folks were unharmed, Xi Er finally felt a bit relieved.

Xing, one hand on his hip, said: "So you're the leader? After countless summons, you finally show up."

Being so arrogant on the first meeting, Ao Lie Ge, seeing him for the first time, couldn't help but ask: "Who are you all?"

Xing briefly introduced the train group's identity and explained the events that occurred in the Upper District, including the purpose of searching for the star core.

Unfortunately, Ao Lie Ge hadn't heard of any star core, but he recommended a key person who might know it—Shi Wa Luo.

"He's just an underground robot; why would he know such an important secret?" Dan Heng asked, puzzled.

"He is an ancient robot that survived 'that war'... If you're looking for something aged, besides him you probably have to ask the 'Great Guardian'."

When the Great Guardian's name was mentioned, Ao Lie Ge's tone suddenly grew heated: "The current Great Guardian is just a fraud; she deceives the Lower District with flowery words, and—"

Before Ao Lie Ge could finish, Bu Luo Ni Ya angrily cut him off: "Enough! I will not allow you to insult the Guardian Lord in front of me!"

"Although I admit that Ms. Ke Ke Li Ya is a very charismatic woman, her actions as a leader are indeed excessive," Zan Yin couldn't help but comment.

"Eh—how rare, it's the first time I've seen you give a bad review of the big sister in the light screen," Fu Li Lian leaned in with interest, smiling slightly: "Is it because she's a bad woman?"

"What's wrong with a bad woman? Bad women can be very charming, okay?!"

Zan Yin recalled the space station, when Ka Fu Ka had just appeared; that elegance mixed with danger, danger yet irresistibly alluring... made him unable to look away.

Especially the "tap tap" sound of high heels on the floor, each step felt like it struck his heart.

Of course, Miss Kizaki behind also perfectly hit his xp, but the first-time meeting with Ka Fu Ka still left an indelible impression in his mind.

"The resentment in the Lower District can't be explained in a few words; Ao Lie Ge first suggested a ceasefire, indicating we should handle the main matter first."

"Before that, he arranged for the train trio to go to the best place in town to rest, and that place... is called the Goethe Grand Hotel!"

"So familiar a plot... the moment he heard the word 'Goethe', San Yue Qi's face instantly stiffened, and a flood of bad memories rushed up..."

"We won't just move in this time and become fugitives the next day, right?"
