Chapter 452 Change
Guiliyuan, the remains of an underground palace.
Keqing held the successfully forged key in her hand and looked at the people in the Hall of Rebirth with a complicated expression, especially at Zhongli, the scrutinizing look in her eyes was very clear.
Zhongli looked expressionlessly at Gui Zhong and Morax, who had successfully solved the problem. He then looked at Keqing, who was looking at him, and was surprised that the problem was solved so quickly.
Not to mention the time spent observing the ruins and murals inside the two doors, the progress of completing the key drawings was also very fast from his point of view.
Being able to achieve this level, Gui Chen has, in a sense, almost reached half of Gui Zhong's attainments in mechanical engineering.
The more Zhongli thought about it, the more confused he became.
Just when Zhongli was about to give up thinking and think about other things, the blocked intersection had been opened, and the rumbling sound of the mechanism moving also attracted his attention.
As the door opened, dozens of Thousand Rocks soldiers pushed the defense mechanism forward in full battle readiness, and Keqing was the first to stand in the front to escort the soldiers.
As the firelight illuminated, paintings appeared on the dark road. These were all contents of how the God of Dust and the mortals governed the entire Guiliji step by step when he was alive. A large part of them contained records of the King of Rock.
At this moment, the Liyue archaeological expert and Xumi scholar Soraya, who were following the group from Wangsheng Hall, were extremely excited. The former was collecting history to expand the teaching of Liyue private school, while the latter, in addition to learning about Liyue history, was working hard for her postgraduate entrance examination.
As for why the latter was able to come to this important place, it was also thanks to Zhongli's arrangement. After all, this girl had been staying in Guili for more than a year. Zhongli would sometimes meet her when he came here, so he would give her a ride.
"I didn't expect that there were so many gaps in the history recorded in Liyue. No wonder some of the ancient texts I translated were scattered. Now they are finally complete."
"With so many interesting discoveries, I'm sure the secretary will look at me differently when I return. Then I can, hehehehe!"
Zhongli listened to two different but both excited voices, and couldn't help but wonder if the secretary Soraya mentioned was the weak academic gray-haired young man Alhaisen he knew.
Thinking of this, Zhongli was quite impressed by how fast Elhaisen Xumi was moving. In just one year, he had already taken control of most of the Institute of the Church. Except for the scholars and other high-level officials controlled by the doctor and Azar, the rest were all his spies.
It can only be said that the appearance of such a master in this critical Xumi can, in a sense, be regarded as compensation for the little Grass God's inability to govern for the past 500 years.
After passing several mechanisms along the way, everyone finally arrived at the next large place.
Looking at the rows of cabinets in front of her, Keqing promptly ordered her subordinates to protect them to prevent outsiders from touching the precious cultural relics.
The Liyue General Affairs Department has its own set of rules for the maintenance of ancient cultural relics, and the various objects displayed here will be placed in the Liyue Museum in the future so that future generations can remember history.
"Wow! There are so many things here that I haven't seen before. If we just mess around with them, thousands of Moras will be gone.
By the way, Mr. Zhongli, you have to be careful with these antiques. Don’t touch them carelessly. If you break them, Wangsheng Hall will not compensate you.”
"Master, you are joking. Although these antiques were insignificant in that era, they are indeed worth cherishing now. Judging from their value, they are worth the price of two Mondstadt cities at most."
Hu Tao was also surprised by Zhongli's comparison with other people's capital cities. She looked at Zhongli more vigilantly and said with a slight smile:
"Then you can't let the guest officials touch it."
Watching the interaction between Zhongli and Hutao, Guizhong, who was repairing the damaged mechanism nearby, also smiled. The look he gave Hutao was especially gentle and caring, like that of a mother.
If Mr. Ye saw this scene, he would definitely take a picture of it. After all, this is also a kind of commemoration.
……
In the past, Guiliji was the center of the battlefield.
Gui Zhong looked at the countless mechanisms around him that had been shattered into pieces, and he did not feel any pain in his heart. Instead, he looked at the Chilong in front of him who was being targeted and in a very embarrassed state with a smile on his face and said:
"It seems that no matter how strong your power is, it will eventually run out. Right now, you can only exert a few percent of your strength, which also shows that your power is very weak and you don't have the ability to break all laws."
"I understand why Morax would ally with you. I want to see your schemes, but don't think you're the only one who can scheme."
The Chilong smiled coldly, and its huge body soared into the air. Its strength slowly increased, and its pressure gradually spread. Its aura was deep and shocked all around.
"You actually broke through with the help of the pressure I provided."
Gui Zhong seemed very shocked on the surface, but in her heart she was extremely calm as she calculated everything around her. She had anticipated this in her countless plans, but the speed was a little too fast.
"Hahaha, how is it? How does it feel to be suppressed by absolute power without any resistance?"
The Chilong's wild laughter echoed around. At this moment, countless monsters on the battlefield cheered and gradually surrounded Guizhong in the center, looking at her with greedy eyes.
Feeling the pain in her arm, Gui finally took a deep breath. Facing the current desperate situation, she calmly and slowly raised the sword in her hand.
In the previous battle, she had clashed with Chilong for several rounds. Although she was not as strong as the opponent, she still managed to lead the opponent into the trap with her skills. However, she did not expect that he would break through to the level of the top demon god so quickly. This time she really had to use her trump card.
Thinking of this, the calmness on Gui Zhong's face turned into a bitter smile, and a huge elemental force began to gather around her, gradually forming the shape of an egg. The monsters did not miss this opportunity, and rushed forward, intending to kill this demon and then eat him so that they could evolve.
But their speed can never compare to the countless preparations made after finally making up their minds.
The vast yellow sand formed a hard rock wall, and the power of the rock element formed blockades, trapping and killing countless monsters, providing energy for the egg in the center.
Seeing this, Chilong naturally would not give his enemy a chance to become stronger, but what he did not expect was that the egg absorbed energy too quickly, and the egg shattered just before his attack approached the egg.
The terrifying pressure swept in all directions, and the power belonging to the top demon god once again appeared on this land. Countless sands and dust turned into sharp tornadoes that wrapped around the Chilong and forced it back hundreds of meters away.
There was horror in Chilong's eyes, but it soon turned into a ferocious smile and said:
"Forcibly breaking through the realm will only cost you your life. I don't think you can maintain this state for long."
"But this is enough to hold you back, Chilong."
Gui Zhong had a blank expression on his face. His hair, which was originally tied up, was loose and floating. His fair and delicate face was as clean as dust, giving people a beautiful yet unreal feeling.
The long sleeves that originally covered her hands were torn into a slit, exposing her fair arms to the sky of yellow sand and dust. The black sword in her hands also showed golden patterns. Combined with her figure and appearance, she looked like a girl from a scholarly family who became a general on the battlefield, domineering and graceful.
Ye Li, who was hiding in the dark at the moment, appeared calm on the surface but was burning with anger in his heart, was stunned when he saw this scene. At the same time, he also recalled how his mother looked when she was really angry. That aura seemed to be not much different from now.
While Ye Li was thinking, dozens of rounds had already passed on the battlefield, until Gui Zhong's momentum surged. Ye Li looked at him seriously.
Chilong was knocked to the ground, and he looked extremely miserable with his serious injuries. Guizhong was not much better off, with blood dripping from the wounds on his body, and he was half-kneeling on the ground, leaning on his sword.
Seeing this scene, Ye Li felt very painful in his heart. No matter what, the other party was his mother in a parallel universe. Even if he was calm, he felt very uncomfortable seeing this because he had been practicing without communication for thousands of years and had become a little indifferent.
"Hagentus! Don't think you can rest easy just because you defeated me. You are already at the end of your rope, and there is no one around to help you."
"Oh, is it so?"
On the battlefield, an inappropriate voice was heard, which was very unfamiliar to both sides, causing both sides to look towards the direction where the voice came from.
I saw a young man in a blue and white robe, with gray hair and gray-blue eyes walking slowly towards me. Judging from his aura, he was actually a demon.
But for some reason, the two sides had very different feelings when they saw this scene.
Logically speaking, during the Demon War, the appearance of a strange demon represents a signal that a new enemy has intervened. Unless the opponent has a friendly attitude, there will be a big battle.
Gui Zhong, who was in a weak state at the moment, supported his body with a sword and looked at Ye Li who was walking towards him in disbelief, because the long sword on his back resonated with the long sword in his hand, which also meant.
The long sword on the boy's back belonged to her. The joy of not seeing its master for many years formed a sharp contrast with the inexplicably impatient sword in her hand.
"How could you have..."
Gui Zhong wanted to say something, but the boy's voice interrupted her.
"It's such a blessing to see you alive. It's a pity that dad is not here, otherwise he would definitely hold you tightly in his arms."
The young man's voice was filled with joy and helplessness, but the words out of his mouth shocked the two men speechless, especially Chilong, who felt unprecedented fear for this inexplicable guy, because he could clearly feel the other party's murderous intent that was locking him in place.
"Who are you?"
Gui Zhong originally wanted to ask about the boy's identity, but the feeling of weakness had already spread throughout his body and he could not even hold the sword in his hand steadily.
Just when Gui Zhong was about to feel the pain of falling to the ground, a hand supported her, and a familiar yet strange, yet reassuring breath came from her.
After opening her blurry eyes, Gui finally saw Ye Li's face from the front. She could clearly feel the heartache and helplessness in his eyes.
She slowly raised her hand and touched the face that was similar to hers and Morax's. The bitter and dead feeling in her heart disappeared, and a sense of happiness filled her heart. At the same time, doubts appeared in her mind.
"If this isn't a dream, I really hope it's real."
Gui Zhong muttered to himself as the breath of life on his body gradually dimmed, and the Chilong, who was unable to move beside him, became even more terrified.
"Whether it is a dream or not, you will understand it when you wake up twice. Besides, I came here this time just for you to meet your father."
Ye Li responded in a gentle voice, and at the same time looked at Buyer who had already appeared beside him and said:
"It seems to be going well."
"It's basically all covered up, but we need to move quickly to avoid being discovered by that person."
"it is good."
Ye Li agreed, then looked at Gui Zhong who had a dull look and said:
"Listen to me, you will forget our existence temporarily. When you wake up the second time, you will remember everything. Don't reveal our identities then. After all, our arrival was just an accident."
After Ye Li finished speaking, Gui Zhong’s eyes, which were originally about to ask questions, gradually dimmed, and he slowly closed his eyes and fainted.
