As Aozaki Touko spoke, her entire being began to grow excited.
Such a treasure held extremely high value for a Magician like her.
With it, perhaps even Aozaki Touko herself could hope to glimpse the Root.
For a Grand Magician like Aozaki Touko, who stood at the pinnacle of the magical arts, entering the Root might be very difficult.
However.
It was only difficult; if she was determined to enter, she still had some methods.
But as a Grand, she knew very well that once she entered the Root, she would basically not be able to come out... And if she possessed the celestial dimension pearl...
"Immortal's Perspective!!!"
Ning Qingyu and Li Hanyi might not understand 'Four-Dimensional Vision,' but when 'Immortal's Perspective' was mentioned, they immediately grasped a vague concept.
Suddenly, what they had initially thought was an exorbitant 368,800 points now felt incredibly worthwhile when conceptualized as an Immortal's Perspective!
Immediately.
The two martial arts powerhouses instantly decided that they must snatch one up once they had accumulated enough points.
In fact, it wasn't just the two martial artists; many other Chat Group members were also tempted.
If such a treasure were not within the Chat Group, but in their respective worlds, it would almost certainly be a legendary item.
Want to buy it?
That would be dreaming!
After a quick scan to ensure everything was in order, Hermes exited the Chat Group once more.
After all, while the principles of dimensions were mostly understood, practical applications still needed to be developed.
For example, shouldn't he create a legendary Two-Dimensional Foil to play with?
"Lord Hermes, I only recorded some superficial data from your recent dimensional experiment. Due to my limited knowledge in this field, I could only manage this much."
Seeing the experiment conclude, Buyer somewhat dejectedly brought up the recorded data.
"You've already done very well."
Hermes comforted her with a gentle expression. He had never expected Buyer to keep up with his research.
It wasn't realistic.
Seeing Buyer still somewhat bothered, he chuckled, reached out, and gently pinched Buyer's pointed elven ear.
"Lord Hermes, my current form is only a manifestation due to a significant loss of power; I am not truly a child!"
The sudden intimacy made Buyer's cheeks flush as she chided him.
"Hahaha, my apologies, my apologies. I've gotten a bit used to it, hahaha..."
Hermes looked at her slightly chiding expression and couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter.
A little teasing of the usually gentle and serious Buyer made him feel much better.
"Alright, Buyer, the connection between Blue Star and Teyvat should be much tighter now. Go and see if you can contact them."
Hermes said with some emotion, "My cultivation has only just begun, and it will require continuous investment of manpower and resources. I can't really make you do the work of hundreds of people, can I?"
There were many talented individuals on Teyvat's side, especially the Witches' Coven and those Archons; each possessed unique skills.
Once he was sufficiently prepared, he could release news throughout the cosmos and begin publicly recruiting personnel.
As for letting the Interstellar Peace Corporation provide people and resources?
Heh heh, Hermes wasn't that naive.
Didn't he see that even at Herta's side, the space station was only responsible for peripheral, tedious work, and they weren't allowed to touch any core points?
Never overestimate the moral integrity of the Interstellar Peace Corporation.
If these guys managed to steal some dangerous technology, who knew what they would do?
"I remember the principle of the Two-Dimensional Foil is a two-dimensional space encapsulated by a special field, right?"
As the deductions began, countless data flashed rapidly before Hermes's eyes. Models began to form, only to be constantly reshuffled.
Having refined the celestial dimension pearl, a miraculous item, and knowing the principle of the Two-Dimensional Foil, it wasn't too difficult for Hermes to create a physical object.
However, the Two-Dimensional Foil was an extremely dangerous dimensional weapon; a slight misstep could easily trigger a major catastrophe.
Therefore, Hermes needed to add corresponding safety measures from the very beginning of this weapon's formation.
For example, once the Two-Dimensional Foil was launched, how could he ensure that the two-dimensionalization wouldn't expand indefinitely?
How could the range be reasonably constrained?
And how could he ensure that the Two-Dimensional Foil accurately hit its target, rather than the enemy escaping their location with a single warp jump?
...Furthermore, he needed to consider how to salvage the situation if the device accidentally lost control.
All of these points had to be taken into account.
Glancing at the busy Hermes, Buyer also turned and left.
She intended to try and contact Teyvat.
"heavenly dao: astrology, I am about to contact Teyvat World. I need your support."
Buyer's thought moved, and a thought connected to the heavenly dao, sending out an application.
"Application received. Calculating resource allocation."
"Calculation complete, Your Excellency Buyer. heavenly dao: astrology can now grant you a total of 3.45% heavenly dao support for 12 hours."
"Would you like to begin now?"
Hermes had given her high authority, but the current heavenly dao was in a stage of rapid evolution and integration; providing the current resources was already its limit.
"Begin now."
The next moment, Buyer felt an infinite power descend upon her.
It seemed as if endless [Imaginary Number · Quantum Hybrid State] energy was at her command at all times.
A great power, similar to authority but surpassing it, moved with her will.
Looking back, she could subtly influence past arrangements; looking forward, she could derive infinite timelines and then lock onto the optimal solution among them... "Is this what an Envoy is? With just a fraction of the power, it's already this strong. How terrifying, then, must the supreme Aeons be?"
Buyer was secretly astonished. Only now did she finally understand the tip of the iceberg of Hermes's power.
This unprecedented strength allowed Buyer to easily grasp the connection between herself and Teyvat World.
"Teyvat World, is it indeed submerged deep within the Sea of Quanta?"
A faint, almost imperceptible pull guided Buyer's will towards the Sea of Quanta.
Fortunately, the heavenly dao possessed some of the power of quantum authority, preventing Buyer from being helpless.
The heavenly dao poured down endless power, helping Buyer open a quantum channel to Teyvat.
The chaotic temporal order and disordered spatial structures of the Sea of Quanta could no longer hinder her progress.
Before her eyes, it was as if there was only darkness, yet the great power of the heavenly dao guided Buyer's direction, preventing her from getting lost in the Sea of Quanta.
Finally.
A world, like one encased in a shattered eggshell, appeared before Buyer's eyes.
Without any obstruction, Buyer gently touched the eggshell, naturally merging, crossing the barrier. The long-lost scent of home welled up in her heart, causing her lips to curl slightly. Unable to control herself, she spoke, declaring to the entire world:
"Teyvat, I have returned!"
