The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

The woman straightened up, wiped the tears from her eyes, and looked at the stiff-faced soldiers in front of her, a hint of confusion appearing in her tearful eyes.

"Lord Foot Garrison, could you possibly be the brother of one of the martyrs who sacrificed his life? How can you look so alike?"

Thinking of this, the woman gripped the soldier's hand even tighter. This foot soldier in front of her must be one of the righteous men above, otherwise how could he look so alike?

"Ha...haha! Auntie, you've got it wrong. I have something to do, I'm leaving now!" The soldier immediately shuddered, quickly pulled his hand away from the auntie's and ran away as if fleeing into the distance.

"He truly is a righteous man's brother. Even though his brother has just died, he still remembers his duty."

As the woman watched the soldiers' retreating figures, tears welled up in her eyes even more.

"..."

"Are you trying to build up a good reputation for my shogunate?"

Shadow, who had arrived at some unknown time, saw the scene before him in this secluded place and looked helplessly at Ember beside him.

What's going on in this guy's head? Why can't I guess what he's going to do next?

"This should be considered a side effect; I didn't expect it to have this effect either." Yu Jin also witnessed the touching scene just now.

To be honest, he never expected that he would inexplicably earn a little good reputation for the shogunate.

But soon, Ember stopped caring about these things. He pointed to the distant screen and asked Shadow:

"You've been here for quite a while, haven't you? What do you think of that thing?"

Shadow glanced at Ember; it turned out he already knew she was here.

After a moment's thought, Ying said unhurriedly, "If it's true, then of course it's worth celebrating, but if it's false..."

"It's no different from those light novels by the goddess."

Shadow nodded and spoke to Ember.

"That's great! I thought it would be so bad it was unwatchable!" Yu Jin immediately became excited.

He was initially worried that the footage would be unwatchable, but he didn't expect Ying to give it such high praise, which really excited Yu Jin.

Actually, if Yu Jin had done it himself, the result would definitely have been unusable, but Yu Jin had a knack for judging people and successfully recruited Shinoin Heizo to be his laborer.

"You made such a big fuss just to film this?" Ying looked down from the edge of the high ground.

In the distance, you can still vaguely see a few dragon lizards moving around.

"Of course." Yu Jin whistled, beaming with pride.

"What's the use? Aren't the dragon lizards still on Haiqi Island? They've quieted down now, but they'll definitely continue their attack once it's light."

Ying pointed at the dragon lizard in the distance and asked expressionlessly.

"We know, we know, it's not like we're just going to ignore it. It's not enough that the film is finished, we have to catch the dragon lizards too!"

Ember clenched his fist and grabbed the little dragon lizard!

"In that case, we might as well just go down and fight a real battle."

"Did you come here specifically to sabotage me?"

Yu Jin glanced at Ying, then patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, with physical evidence in one hand and dragon evidence in the other, let's see if that old dragon's bones are still hard enough!"

Chapter 563 Regaining Strength

2024-03-23

It was still night, and the starlight poured down, casting a hazy glow over Haiji Island, making it even more beautiful.

The night is unusually quiet—because the lizards are unusually quiet today.

As for why they didn't cause any trouble, it was naturally because the dragon lizards also wanted to review their strange experience from the last battle.

Beneath the rugged, uneven cliffs, the dragon lizards gathered together and began chatting by the light of the night.

Deep underground, the dragon lizards had extremely poor eyesight; they hated the Great Sun Chariot that shone so brightly.

So, subconsciously, the lizards' powerful adaptability directly made them beings that did not need sight.

Now that they're on the surface, the sun is as selfless as ever, and the dragon lizards' eyesight is gradually becoming sharp again.

From near blindness to astonishing eyesight, the dragon lizards achieved this in less than a month, demonstrating their remarkable adaptability.

"Chief, is this really the surface of the earth?"

A dragon lizard sat on the ground, recalling its experience from yesterday, and couldn't help but ask the two large dragon lizards in the center.

Humans generally perceive lizards as weak individually, but full of clever tricks, always managing to outmaneuver them and cause them trouble.

Moreover, in the eyes of the dragon lizards, humans are still synonymous with cowardice, always preferring to hide behind the gods no matter what they do.

This was the case when they occupied the surface, and it was still the case when they reached the underground palace.

The dragon lizards had been holding a grudge for a long time. If it weren't for the mysterious gods that kept descending on the Abyss Palace, who knows who would have been driven out!

"This is the surface of the earth!" The two large dragon lizards looked up at the bright moon above them and slammed their fists on the ground.

These gentle breezes, these streams, and the starlight streaming down... all tell the dragon lizards that this is the earth's surface.

"But why have humans become... become even more powerful than us!" one of the dragon lizards pondered for a moment, then asked this question.

As soon as these words were spoken, it was as if the other dragon lizards had stepped on their tails, and they stood up and couldn't wait to refute them.

"Who said that! You're weak! I can take on five humans!"

The defiant dragon lizards displayed their bodies in front of their companions, demonstrating their strength to other members of their species.

However, the other group of dragon lizards were not intimidated at all. They simply scratched their heads and then said in a serious tone:

"Humans used to be afraid of death, but now they are not afraid of death."

"[Death]? A fake? There's no dragon's letter!"

The dragon lizards, who were flexing their muscles, stopped what they were doing and said with utter disdain. To them, death was nothing more than a lie concocted by other races to scare dragons.

"But they're not afraid of pain. You, aren't you afraid of pain?"

"..."

The other lizards fell silent, tilting their heads with unfocused eyes, their heads spinning from the shock of those words.

Wow! The dragon has been defeated by humans!

After a long while, the lizards finally came to their senses. They cried out loudly among the dragons, seemingly unable to believe the conclusion.

The two large lizards looked at their kin who were running wildly around them, and only stopped them when they were a little tired.

"Chief...Chief, humans are stronger than dragons, what do we do?!"

The lizards raised their heads and saw two large lizards several times their size, and their eyes lit up again.

Their leaders were not only the dragon lizards with the deepest accumulation of elemental power, but they were also the strongest individuals specially selected by the humans of the Abyss Palace.

As long as there is a leader, all difficulties will be easily resolved!

The dragon lizards all thought the same thing.

Sensing the gazes gathering around them, the two large dragon lizards straightened up. They brandished their massive claws and declared in a powerful voice:

“No need to be afraid! Humans are no stronger than dragons!” The large blue dragon lizard shook its head, gradually calming down its companions nearby.

Then the large purple dragon lizard beside it seized the opportunity and added, "Humans are not afraid of pain, and are stronger than dragons. But dragons are stronger, and are stronger than humans!"

"Therefore, humans are not necessarily stronger than dragons!"

Two large lizards are cheering on their companions. The last battle was simply because the lizards were terrified by the drastic changes in humans.

When tomorrow arrives, the battle between the dragon lizard and the human will reveal who is stronger!

"Roar!!!" Hearing their leader's encouragement, the surrounding dragon lizards shook off their previous dejection and became extremely excited.

"That's right, let's fight!"

"Let's have a showdown with humanity!"

"Dragons are definitely stronger than humans!"

The dragon lizards were itching to rush up the cliff and have a blood-pumping battle with the humans.

However, a voice soon calmed the dragon lizard down a bit.

"It's so dark, time to go to sleep."

After saying that, the dragon lizard yawned, curled up its limbs and tail, and lay down to sleep.

The other dragon lizards, seeing this, also realized what was happening. They looked up at the sky; the moon was now directly overhead.

"It's getting dark! Time to sleep!"

"Let's fight tomorrow!"

"Even dragons need to sleep!"

The lizards' thoughts jump around incredibly fast. Just moments ago they were discussing how to teach humans a lesson, but now they're all busy finding a good place to sleep.

"call……"

Soon, shouts rang out, and the island of Haiji finally fell into true tranquility in the dead of night.

……

At dawn, the sun was only emitting light below the sea level; its true form had not yet fully risen.

Except for the vibrant morning light in the east, the rest of the sky was still shrouded in faint darkness.

What should have been the quietest day of the day was suddenly interrupted by a series of loud noises.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The deafening explosions continued one after another, and the ground began to tremble uncontrollably.

Every now and then, several dazzling beams of light leaped out from the bottom of the cliff and exploded on the ground.

"Oh no! The dragon lizards are attacking again!"

The guards on the cliff reacted quickly; after a loud alarm, everyone began to hide extremely fast.

Yu Jin followed the crowd and jumped into the trench. He looked at the soldier next to him who was clutching his head and poked his cheek from below.
