The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

Although it was hard to believe, the original Master of Inazuma, according to legend, had indeed returned, and in the body of Raiden General. This made everyone even more cautious and more awe-inspiring.

"It seems that it's difficult for everyone to reach a consensus. Well then, please listen to what I have to say?"

"How dare I? Master, please give your orders."

Everyone immediately shook their heads, but seeing this, Zhen didn't refuse and smiled as he gave the order:

"Although the Kujo family has many shortcomings, their eldest daughter is skilled in military strategy and tactics, so let her be the commander-in-chief of this expeditionary force!"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw the people of Haiqi Island show joy on their faces. Then she changed the subject and continued:

"The shogunate is currently in turmoil, and there is a great need for soldiers, but the army cannot spare too many men."

"Since monsters are rampaging on Haiqi Island, the soldiers stationed there must be filled with resentment. How about we all be incorporated into the punitive expeditionary force?"

After saying this, both the shogunate and Umijima looked displeased.

Chapter 558 Wait a minute, I have a plan

2024-03-21

The hall was very quiet. The two sides looked at each other, and no one made a sound.

Xin Hai looked up at Zhen, who was sitting on the main seat. Although he was using the body of General Lei Dian, he always had a smile on his face and the aura he exuded was extremely gentle.

This is exactly the same as the legend of Inatsume, except for one thing that the legend didn't mention.

That is the unfathomable depth beneath the gentleness.

"The soldiers belonging to Haiqi Island can naturally be incorporated into the punitive expeditionary force, but I have a small request, and I hope that Master will grant it."

"Just tell me, you human, god, and priestess." Shin looked at Shinkai, who had just stood up. This must be the most rebellious one among Inazuma.

"Since its establishment, the resistance army has had different training schedules and routines from those of the shogunate soldiers. If they were to merge abruptly, neither side would be able to adapt."

"Could we appoint General Goro, the most beloved soldier in the resistance, as our deputy commander? That would make things easier to coordinate."

Xin Hai's words made Goro's ears twitch behind him. Noticing everyone's gaze, especially that of the pink-haired fox, Goro couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Zhen nodded upon hearing this, and she also noticed the rather young beast-eared general behind Xin Hai.

"Young and promising, General Goro." Zhen praised Goro, then nodded to Xin Hai.

"Naturally."

"Then I thank Master on behalf of the people of Haiqi Island." Xin Hai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; the pressure brought by the dragon lizard had finally lessened considerably.

“No need for thanks. The people of Haigi Island are also part of the people of Inazuma.” With that, Shin stood up from his seat.

Seeing this, the others also stood up.

"Without further ado, those involved should set off immediately!"

"Yes!"

Everyone readily agreed. However, just as they were about to go out, a loud voice came from outside the main hall.

"slow--"

With one hand raised high, Ember knocked the guard blocking his way to the ground.

He swaggered into the main hall and went to the conference table.

"Slap!" Yu Jin's raised hand fell, startling everyone.

"I have a plan, but I don't know if I should tell you." Yu Jin asked the crowd as he pulled his palm out of the dent in the table.

"Yu Jin, if you have any good ideas, just say them." Zhen gestured for everyone to sit back down.

"Hey, wouldn't you like to have three harvests a year on Haizhi Island? Wouldn't you like to scatter some seeds and have them sprout immediately?"

Yu Jin stepped onto a chair brought over by a servant, waved to everyone present, and said.

"Really?"

The first to become restless were naturally the people of Haizhi Island, whose soil problems had been a constant companion since they first arrived on the surface.

The Orobas once brought coral polyps from the Dark Sea, which helped improve the soil quality of Haiqi Island, but nowadays, this method is becoming less and less effective.

Everyone on Haizhi Island is worried about the land beneath their feet.

"How could it be fake?" Yu Jin said, looking down on everyone. He patted his breastplate confidently to reassure them.

"It's good that Haiqi Island can return to normal, but what does that have to do with conquering the monsters?" Zhen pondered for a while before asking Yu Jin.

She knew about the land issue on Haigi Island, and she knew even more about it than the people of Haigi Island themselves.

The Abyss Palace beneath the earth is the intersection of the human realm, the realm of light, and the realm of nothingness.

Elemental power, barren elemental power, and abyssal power intertwined and collided within the Abyss Palace, and the overflowing aura caused disaster for the Sea God Island above the Abyss Palace.

The so-called "sacred land" is actually the erosion of the land by savage elemental forces, rendering the soil barren.

Although she knew the reasons why Haizhi Island was so barren, she didn't have any good solutions.

"It's extremely important! Tell me, what kind of monster are you going to defeat?"

Yu Jin clapped his hands and pointed at Zhen Wen.

"Of course it's a dragon..." She started to say the truth, then realized what she was saying. Her smile vanished, and she became serious.

"Did you find it?"

"Nonsense, there are several, one of them is an old geezer clinging to life." Yu Jin crossed his arms, somewhat smug.

"They're willing?" Zhen ignored Yu Jin's little tricks and asked again to confirm.

If the dragons were willing to intervene, perhaps Haiqi Island could truly be saved. Dragons are the pinnacle of elemental life; they wield not only gentle elemental power but also violent, savage elemental power.

“There’s something I’m not too keen on.” Yu Jin scratched his head. Although he gave Kutri a “sleeping pill” before he left, the sleeping pill couldn’t change Kutri’s stubborn nature.

If he is unwilling to cooperate, then we will have to ask Ruotuo.

However, Yu Jin was worried that Ruo Tuo might do something foolish when he thought about Ruo Tuo making a chop gesture towards his head.

Therefore, we must get Kutri's consent!

"Is that really so?" Zhen wasn't too surprised to hear this. Don't be fooled by the fact that the current lizards and humans don't have much of a grudge. That's because both the lizards and humans have forgotten their ancient history.

In the eyes of some older elemental beings, humans are the greatest enemy. If elemental beings feel this way, one can only imagine how dragons feel.

"So we need to use our brains and make them feel the 'apology' from humanity!" Yu Jin became more and more excited as he spoke, and he couldn't wait to start implementing his plan.

"So you mean you already have a plan in mind?" Zhen looked at Yu Jin rubbing his hands together and understood.

"That's right, we're just short of manpower!"

“Alright.” Shin nodded, then said to the bewildered crowd around him, “From now on, Yu Jin will be the commander-in-chief of the punitive expedition, and Kujo Sara and Goro will be the deputy commanders.”

Ignoring the astonished looks of the crowd, Zhen asked Yu Jin, "A portion of the Shogunate army and the resistance forces—is this enough manpower?"

"That's enough!" Yu Jin nodded. The person has been brought in; now it's time to prepare the necessary supplies.

"You guys talk slowly, I'm going to prepare supplies!" Once he got the real authorization, Yu Jin waved to everyone and then ran off without looking back.

……

"Hello, we have all ninety-nine items, what would you like?"

"Blood-infused dendrobium, bring as much as you can."

In front of the famous Inazuma general store, at the store's 99 items section, Ember was talking to the clerk, Aoi.

Upon hearing Yu Jin's request, Kui was overjoyed. Blood Orchids were incredibly expensive; something born on the battlefield and nourished by human blood couldn't possibly be cheap.

"This guest, may I remind you, our shop has quite a lot of blood clots. If you want them all, Mora..."

Kui's reminder made Yu Jin fall into deep thought. He never had the habit of carrying money, and he was currently penniless.

Looking up and seeing the striking "Narukami Taisha," Yu Jin had an idea.

"Put the bill on Yae no Miko's head. You prepare the goods first! I'll come and pick them up later!"

After saying that, Yu Jin waved his hand, leaving Kui full of doubt.

"Yae no Kamiji, what do you need so many blood vessels for?" Although puzzled, Aoi still began tidying up the blood vessels in the shop. She believed that no one would dare to casually use the name of Yae no Kamiji.

"Towards the stars..."

"Alright, alright, Catherine, what about the draftsman's phonograph? I want them all!"

As Ember rushed from the Ninety-Nine Items to the Adventurers' Guild, he impatiently interrupted Catherine's greeting.

This left Catherine looking constipated. The discomfort of having one's process interrupted is something an organism can never truly understand.

But who told her it was Ember who interrupted her? Catherine still smiled, taking out the Adventurers' Guild cartographer's phonograph as she asked:

"What does Mr. Ember want so many phonographs for? If the guys who draw maps want to slack off, I think it's better if Mr. Ember doesn't help them."

"No, no, it's just that my job requires my help. You can just ask me to hit someone and that'll be it."

"What are you trying to do?" Catherine asked curiously.

“Of course it’s filming…I think it’s called a movie?” Yu Jin scratched his head and patted Catherine on the shoulder.

"And it's a tearjerker!"

Chapter 559 The show begins

2024-03-21

"Ahem! Where's the first team? Get over here right now and get everything ready!"

In one corner of Haiqi Island, below roared the dragon lizards, and above, the embers shouted loudly.

Yu Jin stood on the uneven ground, holding a megaphone to guide the arriving soldiers to their positions.

"What are you doing?"

"I don't know. By the way, have you prepared your blood-infused water?"

"Everything's ready! Perfect!"
