Dialogue
The prep work is complete. Now all that is left is to head into the ruins to confront those mysterious ancient machines...
- (Talk to Muzhen)
- Muzhen: Well, looks like we've finally located our target! Great! Guess I can go back to the ship and get some sleep!
- Paimon: What? You're gonna leave just like that?
- Muzhen: Of course not, we're so close! Let's head out right now and capture ourselves a Ruin machine!
- Paimon: Huh, and here Paimon thought you were going to return to the ship!
- Paimon: *sigh* Well, never mind. Let's follow her!
- (Upon arriving at the ruins)
- Muzhen: Haha, this is the place!
- Muzhen: To think that there would be underground ruins here too... *gulp*
What's the matter?
Find anything new?- Muzhen: N—Nothing, it's nothing.
- Paimon: You don't look so good. Are you unwell?
- Muzhen: Haha. I just don't normally get off the boat, so this ruin entrance is... well, quite a sight.
- Paimon: Really? Paimon doesn't think so.
- Muzhen: S—Still, the Captain's order still needs completing. I'm sure you're really curious as to what treasures lie within as well, aren't you, Traveler?
- Muzhen: So, could I invite you, experienced and skilled as you are, to take the lead?
You're hopeless...- Paimon: That she is! Come on, Traveler, lets [sic] go!
- (Talk to Muzhen again before entering the Ruins)
- Muzhen: Hmm? Do you need to warm up or anything?
Can you tell me anything about these ruins?
Do you know anything about those mysterious machines?- Muzhen: Well, I'm a Technical Officer, so I don't know much about world history, I'm afraid.
- Muzhen: Nonetheless, I believe these ruins to be related to the great disaster that occurred five hundred years ago...
- Muzhen: I grew up listening to old sailors tell that tale, you know? They said that neither land nor sea could escape the reach of the Abyss...
- Muzhen: But to me, those were no different from the ghost stories they tell to scare children.
- Muzhen: I mean, only the terrors you can see are true, after all!
- (Upon entering the ruins)
-
- During the Thunder Sojourn event, Travelers can challenge the "Automaton Front" Domain. Defeat the Perpetual Mechanical Array to obtain precious Thunder Crystal.
- Mechanisms such as Thunder Dwellings and Nimbus Gems will appear within this Domain. Use them wisely to defeat your opponents more easily!
- (Talk to Muzhen at Ritou Island, optional)
- Muzhen: *yawn* So sleepy... What's so good about being on land, anyway...
- Muzhen: Ah, hello there Traveler! Thanks for your help thus far.
- Muzhen: It's all thanks to you that we've got enough for the Captain to complete the order.
Who would want this stuff, anyway...
These components look rather sinister.- Muzhen: Aye, rather dangerous-looking, eh?
- Muzhen: Well, our next objective is Sumeru, and I suppose only those weird researchers would study these things, anyway.
- Muzhen: They aren't like those traveling scholars who wander about outdoors. I believe they're people more akin to myself — technical experts who spend most of their time in their studies researching items.
- Muzhen: I would guess that those ruins don't just contain these few machines, either...
- Muzhen: If you're interested, you can continue to explore those ruins and pass any components you find to me. I'll pay well for them!
- Muzhen: After all, "the more the merrier" is the watchword here, both for us and for our client in Sumeru!
Not back below decks yet?
You're still here?- Muzhen: Yes. My share of the work's basically done. I'm only needed again once the cargo inspection has been completed.
- Muzhen: As a result, Sea Drake kicked me back onto the shore.
- Muzhen: "Stop cooping yourself up in your cabin. Get some of that sea breeze, it'll do you some good." Hmph, he should just speak for himself!
- Muzhen: *yawn* Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be taking a nap now. Please excuse me...
