Chapter 204: The leaves are in hand, Mondstadt in chaos
Liyue, Guiliji, Luhuachi Cave, inside the mechanical house.
The moonlight at night sprinkled through the windows, and the dark mechanical laboratory was lit up with the light of the lightning element. At this moment, Ye Li, who was standing in front of the experimental table, had a smile and facial expression that only a villain could show, and silently watched the three leaves floating in front of him. The power connecting the earth veins and the origin of the world tree slowly appeared under the blowing of the elemental force.
“Hahahaha! Buyer, ah Buyer, thanks to the World Tree Leaf you sent me, I can finally make improvements based on the finding compass.”
There was a fiery and a hint of excitement in Ye Li's eyes. The leaves used in the original searching compass were just counterfeits imitated by the Tree King based on the energy of the earth veins. Although it had the function of exploration, it could only locate a general direction and position.
Unlike the leaves now, which are just scraps picked from the World Tree, this thing is a five-star prop related to the entire continent of Teyvat, and it comes in three pieces. I can only say that Buyer did a great job this time, which just solved Ye Li's urgent problem of locating the teleportation distance and position.
"First, let's analyze the power of one of the leaves regarding the earth veins. Combined with the experience gained from making the object-finding compass, it will be easier to create an earth vein detection instrument that covers the entire Teyvat continent. In theory, it should be able to clearly detect the information and biological flows of all locations within the earth vein range."
As he was thinking, Ye Li turned around and looked at No. 2 Ye Li who had kicked the door open with a bunch of spare parts in his hands. The two looked at each other, unable to suppress their excitement and excitement, and said with the corners of their mouths raised:
"Get started, get started! We must complete the detector before those three guys gather all their forces."
The door of the mechanism house was blocked, and huge and terrifying formations were stacked up around the mechanism house. The terrifying momentum made Gui Zhong, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard on the distant hill, twitch his mouth.
Morax sat at the stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea and looking at the layers of elemental formations flying up. He couldn't help but sigh:
"It seems that this research cannot be underestimated. I hope that child can succeed."
"It's no problem. He is our child. In terms of fighting power, he will be able to keep up with you in the future. In terms of wisdom, although he is not as good as me, he is much better than me in terms of mechanisms and some areas that I am not very good at. This difficulty is nothing to Xiaoli."
Seeing Gui Zhong's confident look towards Ye Li, Morax nodded with a smile and a look of joy. His golden amber eyes showed a kind of firmness, and he said:
"After all, besides you and I, there are many other people who believe in him and are looking forward to his success."
Gui Zhong looked at Morax's smile, his eyes froze for a second, then he recovered and continued:
"Yes, whether it's the immortals like Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, or the kid Ganyu, or even Buyel of Xumi, Xiao and other Yakshas, they all believe that he can do what we can't, just like when we defeated Chilong with the cooperation of countless immortals, mortals, and Yakshas."
Gui finally smiled, Morax looked at her, and a steady voice came.
"Well, Xiao Li's research has already begun, and we can't interrupt it. According to the intelligence sent by the undercover, in a few months, the joint forces led by Osel, the Dream Demon, and the leader of the West Sea Alliance will launch a general attack on us. I'm afraid this is the biggest challenge we have ever faced. In the end, we should go out and prepare."
……
Mondstadt, the sixth city, the border town of West Wind.
The flames burning in the houses and the snowflakes falling from the sky formed a polar ratio. The Knights of Favonius and the knights obeying the lonely king of the high tower were fighting in the streets and houses of the town. Blood and flames continued to spread.
Carlo, along with his sister, the chief high priest of the Church of West Wind and the person who communicated with Lord Wind Elf, mounted their horses and galloped towards a certain direction of the fifth city. The elite and many members of the Knights followed behind them and broke out of the encirclement. The illusory wind pressure kept pushing the pace of the attacking party, making it impossible for the knights who obeyed the lonely king of the high tower to get close to his believers.
The blonde girl looked at her brother beside her nervously, and said anxiously:
"Brother, are we just going to abandon the town we worked so hard to build?"
"This is not giving up, but a temporary concession. With our current strength, we cannot resist the tyranny of the Lone King of the High Tower. We must gather more strength so that the Wind Elf can gain stronger divine power and defeat the Lone King of the High Tower."
There was struggle and unwillingness in the girl's eyes, but she eventually followed the people who broke through the siege and left.
The two-day journey was neither fast nor slow, and the pursuing knights were unable to find them. Carlo and his companions successfully reached the forest outside the fifth city.
At this moment, the people who had been running for two days were covered in dust. The shadow of the chaos in Mondstadt hung over everyone's heart. Even though the wind elves blocked the cold winter on their way, many people fell on the road because of the riot.
"God of Time and Wind! Please light the way for us and find a place to temporarily camp."
Snow and wind continued to fall, and the blonde girl's whispered prayers summoned a green wind field that enveloped everyone, protecting them from the icy disaster.
Carlo looked at the familiar environment covered with snow with a relaxed expression. Looking at his sister whose back was blocked by divine power from the cold wind, he couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache in his eyes. But even though his strength was second only to the leader of the Knights Obedience, he couldn't defeat the Lone King of the Tower by himself. After all, He was a god and he was just a human.
Riding a horse and leading everyone to a familiar road, Carlo took out a thing similar to a flare from the package he brought without hesitation, and lit the fuse with the flint he brought with him. Fire and smoke flew out, followed by a long and distant sound like a bird's song and flames shooting up into the sky.
There was a crackling sound and sparks were heard in the sky. Dicas, who had been waiting for a long time on the city wall of the fifth city, looked brightened and immediately ordered the city gate to be opened, waiting for Carlo to bring his men in.
As a long procession of more than a thousand people entered the fifth city, the tension of many people had disappeared, because they saw the leader of the Knights of Favonius communicating with a red-haired man standing on the city wall, and they seemed to be acquaintances.
Looking at the flags floating on the wall, they who had temporarily abandoned their hometown knew that they had come to the camp of their allies. This was one of the real reasons why they relaxed.
"It seems you still can't hold on, Carlo."
"There were too many of them. Master Wind Elf didn't have time to use his power to isolate them from the town. After all, we had too few people. Otherwise, we wouldn't have fled here in such a desperate situation."
Seeing the unwillingness in Carlo's eyes, Dicas reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said solemnly:
"The West Wind Church in the center of the city has been built and is proceeding according to plan. When the time comes, we will publicize it. I believe the power of the wind elf will become stronger."
Carlo nodded, turned around and looked at his sister who was standing next to him and didn't dare to speak, and said softly:
"This is Decas Legenfind, my brother's best friend. Carly, if you have any questions, you can ask him."
Carly Gunnhild nodded, took off her high ponytail hairpin, and her long golden hair fell like waves. She made a basic nun's hand-clasping gesture and said:
"Thank you Mr. Ducas for taking me in. Time and Wind will bless your family and let your will be passed down through the ages."
Looking at the girl in front of him blessing sincerely, Dicas laughed, turned to look at Carlo who was a little embarrassed, and said:
"Okay, come to my house and rest for a night. You should go to see him tomorrow. After all, the resources he has are enough to help us turn the tide of the war."
