Dialogue[]

Quest Description

Garcia and Lutong seem to be troubled by something...

Dialogue Set #1[]

(Before completing Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility)
(Use Nahida's All Schemes to Know on Garcia, optional): Garcia: (I need to speed up my research...)

(Use Nahida's All Schemes to Know on Lutong, optional): Lutong: (Why does Mr. Garcia look like he's in a hurry...?)

(Talk to Garcia or Lutong)

(If the commission has not been completed before)

Garcia: Lutong, my dear Lutong, are you sure... this is the place?

Lutong: Yes, Mr. Garcia, this is where Slimes are most often found.

Garcia: I am most certain of that. However...

Garcia: Would you agree that the Slimes are mildly overwhelming in quantity?

Lutong: Mr. Garcia, this is how we end up when we are caught short financially.

You are... Garcia?

What brings you here?

Garcia: Traveler! What a coincidence!

What are you doing here?

Garcia: Haha. Why, I'm here for...

Lutong: Trouble.

Garcia: Valiant adventure! Please, Lutong, could you not...

Lutong: As you wish, sir.

Garcia: In truth, I'm here to look for Slime Condensate to use as the lubricant for my Numbering Machine.

Garcia: Unfortunately, most of the Slime Condensate on sale is of low quality as it's kept for too long. Besides...

Lutong: Mr. Garcia purchased too many books...

Garcia: Oh come now, those were... necessary expenditures — that left us short of Mora, yes, but still!

Garcia: That's why we came here, to collect some fresh Slime Condensate ourselves.

Garcia: But as you can see, though our good Lutong is from Liyue, he knows neither martial arts nor culinary skills.

Lutong: Fortunately, I have a gift for accounting... all thanks to the complex tax rules of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Garcia: ...As for me, I can't possibly hit anyone with the components of my Numbering Machine.

Do you need my help?

Garcia: Well, in a sense...

Lutong: Yes.

Garcia: Lutong, do we... um... do we have any Mora left?

Lutong: Well, I believe we'll find a way to get by after we pay the Traveler.

Garcia: Splendid. Traveler, I'd appreciate it if you could kindly retrieve some Slime Condensate for me.

(If the commission has been completed before)

Lutong: Once again, Mr. Garcia, I sincerely suggest that we sell a few books to raise some Mora.

Garcia: No! Not for the world! Lutong, my dear, you are asking me to put my soul up for sale!

Lutong: But sir, no one bids for souls.

Why are you still here?

Do you need some more Slime Condensate?

Garcia: Oh, Traveler? What brings you here?

Garcia: Um... My last experiment failed. There was something wrong with my dilution of the Slime Condensate...

Garcia: Instead of lubricating the bearings of the Numbering Machine, the lubricant actually made them more likely to get stuck.

Garcia: As such, I need more Slime Condensate for further experiments. Could you...

Leave it to me.

Don't you have a way to earn Mora?

Garcia: It's not that we don't...

Lutong: It's a question of ability.

Garcia: Thank you very much for this timely explanation, my dear Lutong.

Garcia: Well, it's most certainly a shame... Although I have finished building the Numbering Machine, its functions are incalculably underwhelming.

Garcia: It cannot even fully function as an automatic calculator, requiring manual aid to facilitate its operation.

Garcia: But... I will enhance it! I firmly believe that my Numbering Machine will be a great invention!

Garcia: An... An invention that heralds a new era! And after that, I'm sure I'll find a way to earn Mora...

Garcia: H—However, before that...

Lutong: Traveler, please help us collect the Slime Condensate. I'll have your payment ready.

(Talk to Garcia or Lutong again)

Garcia: Lutong, our Mora...

Lutong: We'll get by, Mr. Garcia.

Lutong: There is an old saying in Liyue, "When your path is blocked by a mountain, there will be a way through." I think this describes precisely where we are right now.

Lutong: It means that when a mountain stand in our way, we will always find a way to get over it.

Garcia: Aha! That's a clever metaphor. Then I suppose our situation is not quite so dire.

Lutong: Still, Mr. Gracia, do you think the person who originally penned those words found a way across the mountain?

Garcia: Eh? Come on now, Lutong, don't jinx it...

(After defeating the slimes)

Paimon: That should be enough. Let's get back to Mr. Garcia now.

(Obtain Fresh Slime Condensate)

(Talk to Garcia): Garcia: Traveler, have you obtained the Slime Condensate?; Got it right here.; Garcia: Wonderful! This should suffice. I'll continue my experiments once I return. With this as the lubricant, my Numbering Machine will definitely...; Garcia: I must attend to my research now. Lutong, please take care of the remaining affairs.; Lutong: Yes, sir.; Lutong: Here's your payment, Traveler. Thank you ever so much for your help.; Lutong: And um... in my humble opinion, we might be in need of your help in the future.; Lutong: Rest assured. As long as the accounts are in my hands, you will be paid fairly.; Lutong: *sigh* ...Actually, I came to travel with Mr. Garcia because I didn't want to spend my whole life doing accounts in a department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs like my parents do.; Lutong: But now... in addition to working with Mr. Garcia on his calculations, I also need to help him sort out his accounts...; Lutong: I guess this is what they call destiny...

Dialogue Set #2[]

(After completing Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility)
(Use Nahida's All Schemes to Know on Garcia, optional): Garcia: (Kaia... No no, what am I thinking...)

(Use Nahida's All Schemes to Know on Lutong, optional): Lutong: (Mr. Garcia's thoughts are written all over his face...)

(Talk to Garcia or Lutong): Lutong: Sir, this might be the place we're looking for. Now we just have to return with some hires...; Lutong: Sir? Mr. Garcia, are you listening to me?; Garcia: Yeah? Oh... Of course, I'm listening. Let's go back and hire someone. It won't take long.; Is... is everything alright?; Garcia: Traveler, ha... It's all right. I'm fine. Do I look I have a problem?; Garcia: Now I am 100% committed to the research on the Numbering Machine, and I feel that I am only one step away from success.; Garcia: If you're willing to help, would you please get some Slime Condensate for me?; Garcia: Since you are here, I don't have to go back to the city to hire people. Now that I have made a little money now, I can offer you a better payment.; Sure.; That sounds good to be...; Garcia: I will leave this part to you, traveler. As for me, I have to think about how to change the structure of the mechanism...

(Talk to Lutong, optional): Lutong: Traveler, thanks for coming.; About Garcia...; He is still...; Lutong: You're right, it's Ms. Kaia. Though Mr. Garcia doesn't talk about it, he gets distracted more and more often at work.; Lutong: And he never went to that café again. Now he just asks me to buy it for him.; Lutong: Even Mr. Ahangar came to tell me that he could talk to Mr. Garcia if it's necessary.; Lutong: I don't know how to straighten Mr. Garcia out, as I have no experience dealing with this kind of situation.; Lutong: *sigh* Looks like there is another hurdle in front of me and Mr. Garcia...

(After defeating the slimes)

Paimon: That should be enough. Let's get back to Mr. Garcia now.

(Obtain Fresh Slime Condensate)

(Talk to Garcia): Garcia: Traveler, have you obtained the Slime Condensate?; Got it right here.; Garcia: Well, that's enough. Lutong, can you pay the Traveler first?; Garcia: I need to check the quality of these Slime Condensate first...; Lutong: Here's your payment, Traveler. Thank you for your help.; Lutong: You are welcomed to swing by anytime.; Lutong: If Mr. Garcia's mental state is too... unwell, maybe I'll need your help.
