Mondstadt, Longcrest Snow Mountain.

Under the leadership of Sartang, Ningzhe walked in the snow for about half an hour. The beautiful trip to see the snow was gone.

The reason is very simple. You can see several monsters after just two steps on the snow-covered road. Small ones include Ice Slime, big ones even include Qiuqiu Frost Armor King... Even if they go around all the way, Ningzhe has to take action to clean them up.

A group of Qiuqiu people were wandering around and almost discovered them...

With such a density, it would be a bit dangerous for adventurers to form a team...but for experienced adventurers, it shouldn't be a big problem.

After going around and around, Ningzhe finally saw the [Broken Bridge] that was very vivid in his memory.

However... there are still some differences. Abedo seems to have repaired the bridge himself, so he and Sugar don't need to spread their wings of wind to fly over, they can just walk over.

So humane!

"Um?"

Just after walking across the bridge connecting the two sides, Ningzhe saw Albedo from a distance.

To be precise, Albedo was standing in front of his easel, holding a paintbrush and thinking carefully about something.

There was a broken-winged blue wind crystal butterfly in front of him. It seemed that its own elemental power was not sufficient, and even its wings to maintain flight were somewhat incomplete.

Abedo's paintings generally only focus on the "interesting" parts. Perhaps in his opinion, this flawless wind crystal butterfly is just another kind of beauty.

Seeing that Abedo was painting attentively, Ningzhe didn't intend to disturb him directly, so he walked into the camp on his own.

After hesitating for a moment, Sugar decided to walk directly behind Abedo, but she did not speak, just quietly watched Abedo paint.

The ice blue brush paints a snowy white color, and the pure white painting paper seems to be naturally added with a taste of snowy mountains.

Not far away, the Wind Crystal Butterfly was still struggling to open its wings. The cold wind as sharp as a razor blade blew over its head from time to time, but it didn't seem to care. It just wanted to fly again.

In Albedo's painting panel, there is a delicate and beautiful wing. Apart from this wing, there is nothing else on the painting panel.

According to his habits, the other parts of this wind crystal butterfly are very ordinary...there is almost no need to describe it.

But when he saw that it was incomplete and still trying to fly, Albedo hesitated... Should he give everything to this wind crystal butterfly?

Should he... grant the ridiculous yet great wish of this Wind Crystal Butterfly?

After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Albedo finally raised his brush again and started embellishment on the drawing board.

He didn't add any content, he just tried his best to make the incomplete wings more delicate.

Since Feng Jingdie is great because of its incompleteness, he should not deprive it of this power.

"..."

After arriving at Abedo's small camp, Ningzhe's first feeling was warmth.

Under the snow all over the sky, it is so wonderful to have such a cave to shelter from the snow, and there is a fire in the cave...

After looking around carefully, Ningzhe discovered some ancient-looking objects placed near Albedo's research platform.

Wine glasses, accessories, masks...etc.

Their construction technology is different from Mondstadt's casting method since ancient times. Compared with Mondstadt's craftsmanship, these wine glasses and accessories have a more refined taste.

"Silver pattern, concave structure, and some intentionally added blue elements..."

Ningzhe picked up a wine glass and observed it carefully.

Overall, this is a delicate and compact wine glass.

But from the appearance, this wine glass is not suitable for drinking...or drinking in public places. This style is more like a wine glass for drinking alone at home in your free time.

In Ningzhe's impression, there is only one place where this kind of cup is used on a large scale.

That is the distant snow country——[Shar Fendenir].

Didn't you expect that Abedo has found the items left behind by the ancient country? No wonder he said that research has made great progress...

Thoughts flashed through his mind, Ningzhe put down his wine glass and walked out of the camp.

Generally speaking, Albedo has almost completed the painting at this time, and he still has to take a look.

...

As soon as he walked out of the camp, Ningzhe saw Albedo and Sugar behind him.

And...the Wind Crystal Butterfly had lost all signs of life, but still held its head high, facing the sky.

"..."

Abedo put down his paintbrush, exhaled a breath, turned his head and looked at Ningzhe.

He was not surprised at all that Ningzhe was here. After all, he had promised to come to Longcrest Snow Mountain two days ago, and it was almost time to arrive.

"how?"

Abedo looked at Ningzhe with his clean and clear eyes, and he slowly spoke.

"Well... in terms of painting skills, this painting is almost impeccable."

When Albedo asked, Ningzhe did not hesitate and walked directly to the drawing board and looked at it carefully: "Whether it is the use of colors or the composition of lines, this painting is perfect from every angle."

"And from a life perspective..."

Ningzhe turned to look at the motionless Wind Crystal Butterfly, which was covered with ice and snow, and slowly said: "I don't interfere with its life, I just record the most beautiful parts of it... This is a kind of

Romantic art.”

"In any case, I think this painting is qualified to be placed in the Mond Art Museum... but the most suitable place for it is this snowy mountain."

The wind crystal butterfly in the snowy mountains...only in the snowy mountains can it shine with its own light.

"Haha, it's actually worthy of your admiration. Then this Wind Crystal Butterfly is worthy of its praise."

Hearing Ningzhe make such a high evaluation, Abedo was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face.

There are not many people in Mondstadt who can understand his painting ideas, and Ningzhe happens to be one of them.

"Teacher Abedo..."

At this moment, Sugar, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "The research direction I lead is bioalchemy, so if I restore this wind crystal butterfly to its most healthy appearance..."

"granulated sugar."

Seeing that his disciple's face was a little confused, Albedo gently interrupted her, then stretched out a hand, and a touch of golden light appeared in his hand.

"Alchemy is a language, a language that is common to all things...and everyone's ideas and research ideas are different. You don't need to change yourself because of me."

After saying that, the golden light in Albedo's hand disappeared and was replaced by a rotten tree branch.

Alchemy, a language of creation and exchange.

"Ming, I understand, Teacher Abedo..."

Seeing Abedo's serious expression, Sugar's face turned red unconsciously and he responded quickly.

The moment Sanduang saw the wind crystal butterfly, she wanted to repair its wings, but when she saw Albedo painting based on it, she hesitated...

It wasn't until he heard the exchange between Ningzhe and Abedo that his hesitation turned into confusion.

Incomplete beauty...and romantic art?

She almost doubted whether her research was correct, but fortunately Albedo saw it directly and persuaded her.

"..."

Seeing Sugar's appearance, Ningzhe smiled and shook his head gently.

A researcher of bioalchemy...
Chapter completed!
