I'm a male god in Liyue

"I see!"

Xia Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "I think we can remove its ability to act autonomously."

Liu Yun was slightly taken aback: "Remove?"

Xia Zhi stretched out his finger and gently tapped its hard armor: "Hmm, for example, we could set up a cockpit inside it and have a pilot control its movements."

Upon hearing this, Xia Ci's expression showed some interest: "Like Gundam?"

Xia Zhi nodded: "Yes, something like that."

Xia Ci looked at it and said, "But its appearance is far inferior to that of a Gundam."

Xia Zhi said, "We can completely change the design and such."

Liu Yun looked thoughtful and said, "But its interior doesn't seem to have enough redundant space to be converted into a cockpit."

Xia Zhi smiled and said, "That's easy. We can create a small space inside its body to serve as a cockpit. That way, even if its main body suffers a huge explosion and impact, the isolation of the space will not affect the pilot's condition at all."

After a brief discussion, the three of them came up with a completely new renovation plan.

Liu Yun looked up at the [Ruins Heavy Machine] standing still, and said, "We need to stop it first..."

Xia Zhi nodded, took out the [Multi-Purpose Key], and inserted it into the [Ruins Heavy Machine].

This time it rotated clockwise.

An invisible ripple once again spread outwards from the spot where the key was inserted.

Xia Zhi gently pulled out the key, and the blue light in the single eye of the [Relic Heavy Machine] slowly dissipated, and the huge machine became quiet again.

Looking at the time, it's almost four o'clock in the afternoon.

Xia Zhi put away the [Ruins Heavy Machine], and everyone boarded the hovercar and returned to the shrine.

There's no rush to modify the Gundam; he needs to go to the kitchen now.

After all, he had promised Ying that he would teach her how to cook Liyue cuisine.

When Xia Zhi arrived in the kitchen, he saw Ying already standing by the stove waiting.

He walked over and greeted Ying.

Then, he began to cook skillfully.

Ying stood beside him, observing and learning attentively.

Xia Zhi casually asked if she knew of an abandoned "Ruins Heavy Machine" in the desolate sea.

Shadow nodded and said that there were many war machines left over from the Kanria era in that area of ​​the desolate sea. Some of them had become scrap metal, some could still be used, and some seemed to be immobile, but they would suddenly start up as soon as a person got close or touched them. Therefore, that area was very dangerous and hardly anyone went there.

"I see. So, all these years, the Inazuma government hasn't organized anyone to clean up the barren sea?"

"This one……"

Ying paused for a moment, seemingly communicating with the general within her body.

"I'm not entirely sure, but the general said she had considered it before, but because there weren't enough people and the cost was too high, it wasn't worth it, so she eventually gave up on the plan."

After all, Inazuma's high-end combat power was basically exhausted in that dark calamity five hundred years ago.

Enemies like the [Relic Heavy Machine] are no match for even Charlotte, who possesses the Eye of God. No matter how many ordinary soldiers there are, they simply cannot defeat it.

Unless a general or a divine being personally intervenes.

However, the two of them are busy with many important matters every day and do not have extra time or energy to do this kind of thing.

Xia Zhi thought for a moment and said, "You really didn't have much time before. Now that your cousin is back, if you have nothing to do, you can use them to practice your sword skills and clean up that area. I think the location of the desolate sea is quite good; you could build another port there."

Ying nodded and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking."

Xia Zhi said, "You can call the Dragon King and Wendy. I heard the Dragon King didn't get enough of a fight with you last time?"

Ying said, "Yes, last time it was because of a conflict with the general that my body was somewhat restricted. The Dragon King felt that continuing the fight would be somewhat unfair, so he gave up."

Xia Zhi laughed and said, "Then you can fight him again now."

Ying shook her head and said, "Let's not fight anymore."

Xia Zhi asked curiously, "Oh? Why did you stop fighting?"

Ying glanced at him and said in a flat tone, "Compared to you, he's too weak. I'm not interested."

Xia Zhi was taken aback, then chuckled and shook his head: "If Dragon King and Wendy are unwilling to deal with those war machines, I can call Qi Qi and the others to help. Although they now possess great power, they still lack practical combat experience. Fighting these war machines will greatly benefit them in improving their combat experience, and with you watching over them, nothing will go wrong."

Ying nodded gently: "Okay, I will take care of them."

While chatting and laughing, Xia Zhi had already finished several Liyue dishes.

He asked Ying to come and take the spoon so she could try it out.

The results were not surprising.

Although Ying had tried her best, and there was nothing wrong with her cooking steps and techniques, the final dish always tasted strange.

Xia Zhi put down the chopsticks she was tasting, and her expression became slightly serious.

He originally wanted to teach Ying step by step so that she could gradually learn Liyue cuisine and enjoy the pleasure of teaching a god.

It now appears that this method is simply not feasible.

Ying looked at him and asked softly, "Is it not tasty?"

Xia Zhi considered his words carefully and said, "It's not that it's bad, but it's quite different from what it should taste like. Try it yourself."

Ying picked up another pair of chopsticks and tasted them one by one.

"what do you think?"

"good."

"..."

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, then said seriously, "I think if you really want to learn how to cook well, you still need to restore your sense of taste first."

Ying asked, somewhat puzzled, "Is there something wrong with my sense of taste?"

Xia Zhi sighed helplessly: "It's not just a problem, it's a huge problem."

--

After preparing the meal, Ying called her sister and asked her to come over from the castle tower for dinner.

Although the castle tower and the shrine are quite far apart, for a god like Natsuma, it's just a matter of a flash of lightning.

During dinner, Xia Zhen couldn't help but complain to her best friend that Inazuma's job was so busy and tiring, and she still had so many documents to review...

Xia Ci smiled and said, "Weren't you always this busy before? How come you were able to keep going before, but you can't anymore?"

Xia Zhen glanced at Xia Zhi not far away and sighed, "It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance."

The main problem is that I felt too relaxed and comfortable living with my cousin before, and now I've suddenly become a working-class person again, and I haven't adjusted yet.

Xia Ci teased, "Aren't you envious of me? Who told me to have a sister as smart as me? I don't have to worry about those trivial matters in Sumeru anymore."

Xia Zhen looked at her and said, "You've changed. You used to be very diligent in your duties."

Xia Ci laughed and said, "There was no other way back then. When you're in a high position, you have to take responsibility. Besides, I was corrupted by forbidden knowledge and overdrawn most of my power. If I didn't govern the country properly, where would I get the power of faith to recover?"

Xia Zhen said quietly, "Even now, it seems that more people believe in you, right? Poor Naxida, she worked so hard, but in the end, she was just working for her unscrupulous sister."

Xia Ci clicked her tongue: "Don't talk nonsense. I'm here, and I'm doing my best to help Naxida find happiness."

"cut……"

"Ah Zhen, you don't understand."

"Hey, you're basically just sitting around doing nothing anyway, why don't you come to Tenshukaku and help your best friend with her work?"

"Farewell!"

"This best friend relationship is over!"

Ying ate her meal silently beside him, unable to get a word in edgewise.

After all, she was just a crude and uncouth martial artist.

After dinner, Xia Zhen came over to chat with Xia Zhi.

Despite being busy with official duties, I still need to squeeze out some time to cultivate a good relationship with my cousin.

"I stayed up all night last night and have been busy all day today. I feel so tired."

"Shall I give you a massage?"

"Okay."

After trying a full essential oil treatment, I felt much more relaxed.

"Alright, I need to go back to the castle tower and get back to work."

"come on."

"Sigh, just thinking about all the files and documents I have to read gives me a headache. It seems like Inazuma hasn't changed much in 500 years, but actually a lot has happened."

"Do you want me to help you?"

"What do you mean?"
