The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"Excuse me, do you have any spare crossbows? I'd like one." The culprit got up from the ground, dusted himself off, walked around the venom, and asked the others without any regard for the situation.

"Damn it! What kind of gang are you from?" Samel grabbed Elhesen's collar, his face contorted with malice.

"Just a reminder, this is a dream. Your poison is still working fine in reality," Elhesen said, turning his head slightly.

Upon hearing this, Sammer's momentum immediately weakened, but he quickly found a new reason.

"Venom is a minor issue, but delaying our victory over this Fool's Enforcer is a major one! Tell me, how are we supposed to harm him without Venom?!"

"Besides, I'm not the master of this dream. Once the poison in the dream is used up, I'm really done for!"

Samel pointed to the shimmering lights in the distance and questioned them with righteous indignation. One might mistake him for a righteous hero.

What he said wasn't entirely untrue. With their combined strength, they would have to resort to underhanded tactics to harm someone of the Doctor's caliber.

Poison is a great option. As long as you're made of flesh and blood, you can stuff all sorts of poisons into it, like snake venom, scorpion venom, or any kind of foul venom, and it won't kill you. At worst, it'll just cause a sore.

"Let me make one thing clear, what follows is not meant as sarcasm." Elhesen slapped Samel's arm down, then continued:

"Attack such a fast-moving target, according to my calculations, your hit rate should be less than one in a thousand."

"What? You're looking down on us?"

"I think I've made myself clear enough, but this is just how accurate 'you' are."

Elhesen and Samel were locked in a fierce confrontation. Just then, Paimon, who, like Rahman, had only used the "Salted Fish Thrust" technique once from beginning to end, floated over, dragging a crossbow about the same length as himself.

"Hehe, here's my crossbow. This thing is too big and heavy for me to use."

"Thank you."

Al-Hysen took Paimon's crossbow, his muscles bulging, and with a casual pull, a "snap" was heard, and the crossbow was ready to fire.

"I have some poison here." Seeing this, Jade took out the venom she had secretly hidden.

"Why do you have Samel's poison on you?!" Jeberlele exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

"Dad, this guy is so cunning. Luckily you have me, otherwise you wouldn't even know how he tricked you to death."

Jade's words made both Jeberlele and Samel break out in a cold sweat. Jeberlele was astonished that his beloved daughter had turned out to be a black-hearted one, while Samel worried that he would have to check the toilet paper for poison every time he went to the bathroom.

“There’s plenty of time for casual conversation.” Elhesen had no interest in the grudges between the men. He drew an arrow, coated it with poison, and began to aim.

"Drip drip!"

Three prism-shaped green lenses appeared beside him, projecting light onto each other, allowing Elhesen to clearly know the doctor's next location.

"What is this?" Jade ran over and asked curiously.

"A little gadget I developed for computing..."

"call out!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Elhesen pulled the trigger, and the poison-dripping arrow shot out, heading towards several flashing lights in the distance.

Then, one of the flashes suddenly stopped, and he was then slammed to the ground by the other flashes that followed.

"boom!!!"

"It's done."

"Snapped!"

Drawing the arrow, poisoning it, and nocking it—Aylheimer's movements were clean and efficient.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

In the distance, on a sunken patch of ground, the doctor pulled the arrow from his kidney. The desert poison wasn't fatal, but it was enough to rot a piece of his flesh.

"call!"

A roaring black fireball hurtled towards him, and the doctor quickly dodged to the side. Then, in his inevitable path, a dormant seed sprouted, its bursting vines binding him tightly.

The doctor's body trembled a few times in mid-air as he tried to use his strength to break free from the newly grown vines.

Unfortunately, the grass elemental power within the vines was unusually abundant, and despite his best efforts, he was unable to break free.

Sensing the doctor's struggle, the hard vine grew even faster. The new vines behind squeezed the old vines in front, making the whole vine look like it was spinning.

"Pfft!"

The jagged spikes tore through flesh, but instead of splattering blood, they produced a denser mass of demonic remnants.

Immediately afterwards, Cyno, carrying the phantom of the jackal, rushed into the remnants of the demon god, and the wolf claws on his arms slammed down, smashing the doctor's body and vines into a pile of mud.

"Snapped!"

Amidst the almost solidified remains of the demon god, Seno's nose twitched, and he instantly moved forward, kicking the newly formed Doctor far away.

"How much longer?" Seno asked Cole behind him as he emerged from the remnants of the demon god.

"Based on my experience and the data I found, at most two times, the damage that a fusion-type slice can withstand will stop there."

Ke Lai stared intently at the purple remnant of the demon god that followed in the distance; the one inside was her enemy, whom she wished she could tear to pieces.

However, Cole only watched for a short while before turning his attention back to Seno.

Revenge wasn't everything to her; there were many other people she cared about—Colette kept reminding herself of this.

"This stuff can temporarily alleviate the remnants of the demon god, Seno, you should try it."

Cole took out a bottle of potion, which she had developed after destroying many doctor's strongholds.

"No need. I possess the true power of a demon god within me. These mere remnants of a demon god are nothing to worry about."

Seno took a deep breath, and the Hermanubis power within him continuously countered the surging demonic remnants, allowing him to engage in close combat with the Doctor.

"Give it to that blonde girl from before."

Remembering the blonde girl lying on the ground convulsing earlier, Seno decisively pushed the potion back into Cole's hand.

"Here it is!" Ying, who had been lying dead for a long time, finished her treatment and ran back to the battlefield.

"Hold it in your mouth?"

"Yes. It allows you to move around in places with demonic remnants and abundant elemental energy for a while without being affected."

"Thailand, I'm fighting acne!"

Ying swallowed the potion in one gulp, mumbling something indistinctly. Her eyes flickered, and she couldn't wait to fight the Doctor again.

Chapter 709 The crisis has not yet been resolved

2024-06-04

"Phew... a fusion type? This is the first time someone has classified my slice." In the distance, the doctor, who had been kicked away by Seno, stood up again.

The mangled flesh on the ground had long since wriggled and coalesced. Although it had regenerated, the doctor's condition was far from good.

The traces of the flesh being pieced together became more and more obvious with each regeneration. If it weren't for the countless tentacles growing from the gaps and tightly gripping the flesh, this body would probably have been shattered long ago.

Because of this, the doctor's current appearance is enough to stop a child from crying. His body is covered with finger-width gaps, making him look quite swollen.

It's like a piece of rotten meat that's been soaking in water for a long time; it seems that with just a little more force, you could poke holes in it one after another.

His unusual appearance naturally caught the attention of others. When Seno saw the seemingly pieced-together flesh in the distance, he nodded in agreement.

"A hybrid type? That's a fitting name."

"Get ready, just two more times and it'll be over!"

After taking a short break to catch his breath, Seno's aura instantly intensified, and the almost fading jackal phantom behind him came back to life.

"I was definitely involved at least once in these two instances!" Ying's voice was still a little muffled, but at least it was understandable.

She raised her blunt sword and aimed it at the doctor in the distance.

She was tricked by the remnants of the demon god before, and this time she's going to get it back with interest!

Ying and Seno were just the two who made the biggest commotion among the group. Besides them, the Doctor also sensed more auras locking onto him.

A cold glint flashed in the distance. Alhesen distributed his iris to others, but even without his own iris, his aim remained sharp.

The doctor shifted his body slightly, and the cold light in the distance flickered a little. There was no doubt that, given the right opportunity, these poisoned arrows would definitely tear chunks of flesh from his body.

"Tattoo!"

A few more patches of green have appeared in the cracks of the tree rings, and even more seeds have sprouted around them. They are full of vitality, yet they are suppressing their desire to grow, waiting for their prey to walk into their trap.

"It's the end, let's finish this quickly." Nasita said with a relieved tone as she saw the Doctor's miserable state.

She clasped her hands together, and the dark and mysterious temple of knowledge once again enveloped everyone present.

The fragments in his mind were squeezing the doctor's consciousness, making him realize that this hastily created fragment was already filled with useless information.

"Phew... let's each take a step back."

"Let me go, and I'll give you this." The doctor took a deep breath, and then a delicate button appeared in his hand.

With a gentle press, the piercing buzzing sound caused a sharp pain in everyone's ears.

"You can ask your Grass God about the power of this thing."

"But now my body can only be used once. If you don't want to die together with me, then think about it."

As the buzzing subsided, many people couldn't help but shake their heads. Among them, Tina was particularly vocal, constantly rubbing his long fox ears with both hands, almost crumpling them into a ball.

Seno snapped out of his daze and turned to look at Ying and Nasita beside him, receiving affirmative answers from both.

"it is good……"

"Wait, don't fall into his trap." Just as everyone was about to feign agreement, Cole interrupted them.

"It's true that this thing is very powerful, but the first person to be harmed by using it is the Doctor himself."

"If the frequency is high enough to shatter us, he'll be the first to suffer. His current physical condition is definitely not that optimistic!"

With just a few words, Cole revealed all the information that the doctor hadn't told everyone, which made the latter's expression even more gloomy.

"It seems that the culprit behind the inexplicable loss of contact with laboratories around the world is my former test subject. This is truly unexpected."

The doctor stared intently at Cole, triggering childhood memories in the girl and causing her body to tremble involuntarily.

However, after seeing the two God Eyes hanging from his waist, the tragic childhood experience was no longer so frightening.

"But there's one thing I'm curious about: if my slice used this stuff, how did you, a defective product, survive?"
