Chapter 695

【Note: The strength of the awakened stone statue depends on the strength of its creator!】

"This reward…"

A flicker of interest crossed Han Feng's eyes.

The first harmonica needs no further explanation—it's just an ordinary musical instrument.

Barbara and Paimon had obtained one before.

But the only difference is,

Venti possesses extremely profound musical attainments.

So a harmonica is no challenge for him.

Compared with Venti's ordinary reward, Seeing Zhongli's is far more impressive!

The Ultraman stone statue manufacturing technique!

With this, in a sense, one could mass-produce Ultramen.

The only requirement is that light must be used to awaken it!

"Kaedehara Kazuha, that fellow, would actually be quite suited to be the awakener!"

A faint smile appeared on Han Feng's face.

That fellow once said he would bring light to Inazuma.

In the manga *Ultraman Tiga*, this person would most likely be the protagonist.

If Seeing Zhongli later made himself into a stone statue,

and then he acknowledged Kaedehara Kazuha,

it's quite possible that fellow could truly become light.

If that were the case, things would get very interesting!

Ultraman versus Raiden Shogun?!!

Why is the style getting weirder and weirder…

Buzz—

Buzz—

Two streams of dazzling light descended from the sky, enveloping Venti and Seeing Zhongli.

A moment later, the light dissipated.

A blue-and-white harmonica appeared in Venti's hand.

"Th-this isn't the instrument from the beginning of the manga?"

Venti recognized it at once.

The opening scene of the manga—Miyazono Kaori standing on a high platform, playing the harmonica in that breathtakingly beautiful moment—

was still deeply imprinted in Venti's memory.

"A Miyazono Kaori-style accordion. I trust this shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"

Han Feng said with a faint smile.

"Naturally!"

Venti smiled confidently.

Other things might be hard to say,

but when it comes to musical instruments, there aren't many in Teyvat more proficient than him.

Although he hasn't had any contact with it before, studying it a bit later should solve the problem..

Truly a perfect match of expertise!

"Hehe, tomorrow I'll perform with the Miyazono Kaori-style harmonica—the effect is guaranteed to be explosive!"

Venti chuckled.

A beautifully tragic story, music that moves one to tears.

I just don't believe you people won't cry!

"By the way, Seeing Zhongli, what reward did you get?"

Seeing his friend lost in thought with closed eyes, Venti grew curious as well.

"A manufacturing technique for giant stone statues!"

Seeing Zhongli said softly, then fell into contemplation.

After reading the *Ultraman Tiga* manga, Seeing Zhongli came to recognize the greatness of humanity.

So he grew increasingly convinced that transitioning Liyue from being led by gods to being led by humans

was the correct decision!

He just hadn't expected to receive a reward related to Ultraman stone statues!

"However, perhaps I really could try manufacturing one!"

A thought arose in Seeing Zhongli's mind.

He decided to do one final thing for Liyue!

That was to manufacture a giant Ultraman stone statue.

Then pour his own power into it.

This way, if some unstoppable calamity were to befall Liyue in the future,

they could borrow the power of light to transform into Ultraman.

Just like in the manga, where Tiga left Earth,

yet left behind his battle body all the same.

However, to complete this massive project, a considerable amount of Mora 4.4 is required.

Looks like I'll have to send out more invoices!

"Giant Stone Statue Manufacturing Technology?"

Venti blinked in surprise.

What's different about this from ordinary stone statues?

"After creating a giant stone statue, it can be awakened by light."

"The strength of the awakened statue depends on the creator's strength!"

Seeing Venti's confusion, Han Feng gave a brief explanation.

"There's such a technology?!"

A flicker of interest passed through Venti's eyes.

In a sense, isn't this a kind of war weapon?

The difference is, it requires light to awaken.

And its strength depends on the creator's strength.

But what exactly is this so-called light?

Sunlight?

A look of confusion appeared on Venti's face.
