He didn't make her wait too long. Shen He got the preliminary ritual of bonding as she wished. Jack held her and pressed his lips deeply against her crystal-clear little mouth.
At the same time, Jack didn't show favoritism.
He pulled Ganyu, who was next to Shen He, and Mona, who was hiding in the corner, over to give them a kiss as well.
Cloud Retainer thought to herself: I shouldn't have come to Mondstadt! That brat, he's too indiscriminate with his flirting!
And so, Cloud Retainer, a dignified immortal bird, ended up eating mortal dog food.
Only after inspecting the instrument did she leave a farewell and go to the wilds of Mondstadt to seek the gifts of nature.
That night, in the Linjian Cabin of the MC World, dinner had already ended.
Everyone gathered in the spacious living room, one by one, their emotions somewhat unusually high.
At the dinner table, someone, perhaps with a big mouth, accidentally let slip a topic.
This led to all the girls knowing that Jack would be hosting a fantastic party tonight.
No one wanted to be left out, so they all stayed.
Seeing their gazes subtly focused on his lower body, Jack felt a sharp pain in his kidneys.
The idea in his mind grew stronger, wanting to be carried out.
At the scene, besides him, the only man, there were nine maidens of various charms.
From Mondstadt, there were Jean, Lisa, Eula, Amber, and Mona.
From Liyue, there were Keqing, Ganyu, and Shen He.
And Lumine, the Traveler from outside the Seven Nations.
The two minors, Paimon and Klee, were sent out of the MC World early, with a large pile of snacks as hush money prepared for them in the Serenitea Pot.
Lumine scanned the girls present, who were either anxious, expectant, or excited, then complained to Jack:
"You're playing Genshin Impact and didn't even call me! If Paimon hadn't been hungry, I'd still be at the Cat's Tail!"
Jack retorted:
"What does your gambling addiction have to do with me? All the famous people at this party were invited, except for one person. Guess who."
"Wuwu, A Qing, your husband is bullying me!"
Lumine shamelessly threw herself into Keqing's embrace, rubbing against her C-cups, a look of ecstasy on her face.
It was simply a waste of food!
Jack was too lazy to comment on Lumine's behavior and instead looked at Lisa, the culprit behind this Genshin Impact initiation.
"Let's go to the underground warehouse. The Magic Source Gems are stored there."
"Alright!"
Lisa smiled sweetly and linked her arm with Jack's.
Shen He, seeing this, immediately occupied the other side.
The rest of the group looked at each other, then followed the three in a bustling crowd.
Jack just glanced at the chattering group and then ignored them.
The party was definitely going to happen.
But not now.
He and Lisa indeed had serious business to attend to.
Upon arriving at a storage room with piles of upgraded iron chests, Jack opened a chest categorized for ores and took out the relatively rare Magic Source Gems from it.
"So, have you researched anything?"
Lisa took out a beginner's spellbook.
"Those three basic devices you mentioned should all be manufacturable."
"Magic Source Conduit, Magic Source Jar, and Imprinter? Do you have specific formulas?"
"I don't have formulas, after all, I'm not like you and Keqing with unique abilities in this world. What I know is probably the alchemist's method, using transmutation to theoretically produce the aforementioned items."
"However, the entire process requires continuous exploration. Give me some of the basic materials you mentioned, like Magic Source Gems, Arcane Stone, Gold Ingots, and Diamonds. After consuming some materials, I should be able to produce a usable set of three devices."
The formulas for Newbie Thaumcraft varied with different version iterations. What Lisa saw in the beginner's spellbook was actually a theory.
Magic Source Conduit, a way to convert MC World production, daily life, and hunting activities into magical power.
Magic Source Jar, a device for storing magical power, available for various Thaumcraft activities.
Imprinter, a basic workbench for analyzing rules and creating magical talismans, and also the core of the entire Newbie Thaumcraft.
Produce magical power, store magical power, and then use magical power.
Finally, obtain magical talismans symbolizing "knowledge."
By "consuming" magical talismans, players could shake the rules of the MC World, gather great power within themselves, and achieve personal supernatural abilities.
The two discussed some experimental ideas for Newbie Thaumcraft, regarding how to combine basic materials to create tools.
Jack, who had played several versions of the Newbie Thaumcraft mod, could also offer some suggestions.
Midway, Mona, who was somewhat on the professional periphery, also joined in.
The three of them immediately started working on the spot, using Elemental Power as their brushes, and began tinkering with Magic Source Stones, gold ingots, and other items.
"...Keqing, please help me get some more gold ingots, I'm out here."
"Okay!"
Keqing opened the warehouse and acted as a delivery girl, handing a set of gold ingots to Jack.
After delivering them, she didn't really understand magic, so she stood back in her original position.
Behind her, Traveler frowned and patted her on the shoulder.
"No way, Keqing, is this guy really seriously researching magic? Weren't we supposed to have a party?"
"This... I don't know either?"
Keqing carefully recalled the conversation between Lisa and Jack that afternoon.
Lisa was indeed hinting at something, could it be that Jack didn't understand?
"No! He definitely guessed Lisa's subtext at the time!" Eula said with certainty.
"Oh? What makes you say that?" Traveler raised her eyebrows. She wasn't there at the time, otherwise, with her observational skills, she would definitely be able to tell the truth.
"What he said at the time was 'later tonight', using two suffixes in a row. We've already reached tonight, but they haven't started the party yet, so I guess it must be from this 'later'."
"Oh? An interesting guess." Traveler agreed.
"Or could it be a matter of location? If it's very late, shouldn't normal people be washing up and sleeping at that time?"
Ganyu also joined the detective analysis team.
"Washing up! Sleeping!"
Amber suddenly became excited, like a top student who had found the correct answer and was eager to share it with her friends. "This reminds me of bathhouses and beds! Come to think of it, Traveler seems to have a particular fondness for the most primitive state of being completely naked, so could it be that the party will only start when it's very late?"
"Mmm, mmm, mmm! Amber is right." Traveler also agreed.
Then this idea won the unanimous agreement of the girls.
So they all started picking out pajamas from their god's eye.
Everyone is basically on the same starting line in their original state, so the quality of the pajamas or lingerie will determine who can take the lead.
Tonight's first time! I, Traveler, will definitely get it!
Looking at the four people full of energy, Jean was a little helpless.
Keqing patted her on the shoulder and said,
"What's wrong? Aren't you going to join them in the game of snatching the first round?"
"Pfft! Snatch, snatch what?"
Jean almost choked on her saliva and looked at Keqing, who was making lewd jokes.
"Haha, sorry, I've been with that guy for too long and unconsciously used his vocabulary." Keqing scratched the back of her head embarrassedly. "Well, it seems that Jean is also the kind of person who doesn't like to compete. Well, Jack's stamina is very strong, so be prepared for a tag team battle or even a long-lasting tag team battle tonight."
"Eh, eh, eh?!"
Jean's face turned crimson all of a sudden.
Keqing slammed a fist into her palm. "Oh, right, Jean, this is your first time, right? I'll give you a bottle of milk to remove negative effects first, otherwise you'll suffer later."
"And Jack actually has weaknesses too. When we attack him, just use your hand to…"
Keqing leaned close to Jean's ear and whispered her experienced advice, teaching her how to gain an advantage in the bed battle.
Although Jean was shy in her heart, she humbly accepted the guidance.
Gradually, the others who were enthusiastically picking out lingerie also perked up their ears and listened curiously.
The more outrageous Shen He even tore off her sleeves and recorded it with ice as a pen.
