The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"Paranoiac personality disorder, a serious psychological problem, but it has not yet developed into a split personality, so there is still hope."

All the words Yu Jin had prepared were swallowed back down. What is professionalism? This is professionalism!

"I trust you with Cole!" Ember patted Tinari's shoulder solemnly, his questioning tone instantly turning into encouragement.

This is the confidence that comes from being a professional.

"You must be the Ember who rescued Cole and proposed a new treatment for Demonscale Disease, right?"

Tinari rubbed his ear and asked Ember with a hint of curiosity. He was actually more curious about how Ember had proposed such a drastically different treatment method than the former.

Make consciousness absolutely rational, and then project it out through ritual methods to analyze the internal relationships of things.

The deeper your understanding of things, the more thorough your analysis, and the easier it is to find the root cause of everything.

This method can be used not only for treatment, but also for exploring the mechanisms of biological growth and evolution.

Before he knew it, Tinari had perked up her ears, pulled out her notebook, and was ready to ask Ember for some advice.

Upon seeing this, Yu Jin immediately released his grip on Tinari's hand. He hadn't invented the principle of reversion; he only knew how to use it. He couldn't even utter a coherent explanation of the principle.

"Come here, come here! Don't think that's the end of it after we've taken down this executive officer. There's an even bigger threat waiting for us to deal with!"

"With Brother Yu Jin here, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Then you might as well just work for me from now on, and expect me to do everything, right?"

"It's not impossible."

"..."

Yu Jin stopped talking and went up to give Galuro a head slap just like Cole's, leaving her speechless.

"Is it quiet now?"

"Hmm... it's quiet now."

Garuda rubbed her flushed forehead and reluctantly nodded.

"Alright, stop looking at me like that. Actually, to be honest, that thing is also a product of the Fools."

Now Galura wasn't upset anymore. Although she wasn't as extreme as Cora, she would never let go of the chance to make the Fools suffer if she had the chance.

As for Colette, her eyes started shining again. This made Yu Jin consider whether he should assign these two energetic girls to logistics positions.

But then he thought, forget about logistics, just go up and get to work!

As for the doctor's question, aren't there still the Great Tree King and the Abyss Cult that they've brought over?

With Yu Jin thinking about it, Sumeru's combat strength crisis didn't seem so urgent, and the scales of victory were finally balanced again—provided that he wasn't included.

Chapter 711 Rescue of Naxida

2024-06-05

"Everyone's here!"

In the calmed dream, Ember waved to his surroundings, and the others who were meditating heard him and came over.

"When will you wake her up?" Elhesen asked, staring at Nilu while looking at the book in his hands that seemed to have no end in sight.

His gaze was devoid of any emotion; it contained only a rational yearning.

Elhesen was eager to know what was so special about Nel that made her the subject of such a vast dream.

"You talk too much!" Yu Jin threw a flying kick, but he dodged it.

"Everyone's here, you can start now." Seeing the crowd gathering around, Al-Hysen put away his book.

"Brother Ember, are there still slices of the Doctor's?" Cole asked Ember, looking at the shocking crater in the distance.

"Could you let the Fatui rest for a bit? There's only one slice left." Yu Jin waved his hand. This girl is hopeless; she can always pin everything on the Fatui.

"Slice?" The group, who didn't know much about the Doctor, looked at each other, somewhat confused by the conversation between Ember and Cole.

“You can think of it simply as the Doctor having countless clones; what happened just now was only one of them,” Seno explained.

"What?!" The group regretted asking the doctor about the slices, because if they hadn't asked, they could have continued to cheer for a while in their excitement of defeating the second executive officer.

But now... is it too late to surrender?

"A clone? That's an interesting technology." Elhesen nodded slightly; it had been a long time since he had felt his scholarly curiosity so intensely.

“Interesting as it may be, I don’t think he’ll share it with you.” Tinari’s ears drooped slightly; Sumeru was becoming increasingly incomprehensible to him.

First, there was the renowned scholar who mysteriously disappeared; then came the letter forged in his master's handwriting; and finally, the empty Dominican Academy...

"Actually, there's no need to worry so much. The quality of his slices varies. We're just dealing with the one that's considered to be of the best quality."

"Even a doctor would probably be heartbroken for a while." Seeing the shock on most of the faces, Cole, as the mobile database of the Fools, naturally stepped forward to explain.

The foolish crowd said that he was indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, it was only the power of the executives at the front.

Most of the Fools' soldiers, even small squads, are no match for any one of them.

"So... no one's worried about your Little Lucky Grass King?" Ember turned his head and saw that the Great Tree King had run away again, while everyone was still discussing the Fools, and no one cared about Narcida.

"Little Auspicious Grass King..."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Nasida, who was playing cat's cradle with Dina Zede.

"Huh? What's up?"

The green, intertwined flower rope in her hand had vanished, and Nasita retreated somewhat timidly.

This was the first time she had been watched by so many people.

"Still playing around! Don't you have any ambition? Don't you think about how you're going to get out of here?"

Yu Jin suddenly realized that she herself didn't really care about herself. He pulled Naxida over and tapped her little head as he spoke.

“Go out…” Nasita’s eyes flickered a little, but after seeing the beauty of this dream world and recalling the Doctor’s power, her eyes hardened.

“You’re right. The Order of the Fathers has already colluded with the Fools, so I can’t stay out of it like before. Once this dream ends, I will break through to the Pure Good Palace.”

"Is it really possible to break through?"

"Absolutely!"

"Really?"

"Okay... alright, I still need your help a little."

Nasita felt a little guilty thinking about the cage she was in. Although the barrier usually looked thin and fragile, and could be destroyed with just a little force.

But no one knows if the Order of the Fathers has left any hidden tricks. If they fail to break through and instead alert the enemy, that would be no fun at all.

"How can we help?" Seno looked at Ember, his eyes filled with trust.

First, he provided Sumi with an effective treatment for the Demon Scale Disease, and then he found the key to breaking through the dream. Such a person must have his own ideas on how to rescue Nasita.

Yu Jin indicated that he had no idea whatsoever, and quickly waved his hand as he met Sino's trusting gaze.

"Don't look at me like that, I have no ideas in my head. I called you all over here because I wanted to ask you something."

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Seno stopped dwelling on it and began to ponder deeply.

"Tell me the details?" Elhesen pulled out his book again, but this time he wasn't reading it; instead, he looked like he was about to take notes.

The crowd fell silent, not because they had nothing to say, but because they had too much to say and didn't know where to begin.

"Let me start. The Academy of Teachings has recently taken a lot of leave from its scholars. I went back to check, and I think about 40% of them are on leave."

“Indeed, there have been many more field trips recently added to the files, and the number of people involved is roughly the same.” Elhesen quickly jotted it down.

"Also, this is a letter my master sent me. He wants me to participate in a big project with him, but this letter is fake."

Tinari pulled out a letter. Although no one knew exactly what the sage Nafis's handwriting looked like, since he had said so, they could only believe it.

"I don't know whether those scholars you mentioned actually conducted any investigations, but a considerable number of them must have become mad scholars."

Candice, hearing Tinari's words, offered a reminder.

"Mad scholar?"

“That’s right.” Candice looked around at the idle desert people and embers behind her.

"Hehe, when you guys in the Order of the Gods get ruthless, you're no less vicious than us in the desert. First, you drive your own scholars insane, then you extract divine knowledge. Your methods are quite something."

Samel, who was collecting the venom on the ground, immediately stood up, his laughter sinister and eerie. Then, the venom in his hand was "accidentally" knocked over by Jeberlele.

"Can't you watch where you're going?"

"Why didn't the poison rot your hands?"

As they spoke, the two began to fight.

"Okay, that's all they know, but I might know what project that fake master wants you to participate in."

"What?" Tina asked somewhat anxiously.

“The Order of the Church probably wants to create a new god.” Yu Jin stroked his chin, instantly silencing the air.

Even the swishing sound of Elhesen writing stopped because of this.

"Creating...gods..."

Nasida uttered two words indistinctly, her voice hoarse and bitter.

She had always listened to the Order of the Church, staying put and not running away, but even so, would the Order still abandon her?

"That's just the Instruction Hall. Lord Little Lucky Grass King, we have always admired you."

After a brief moment of shock, Dina Zede took Nasita's hand and smiled and nodded at her.

“Yes, yes! Little Lucky Grass King, just ignore those people from the Academy. They don’t represent us.” Nilu chimed in at the right moment.

"Thank you... thank you all."

After a brief moment of confusion, Narcida rallied. As long as someone still believed in her, that was enough. As for those guys in the Church of Jesus Christ… what did it matter to her if they didn't believe in her?

Nasita knew very well that her motivation for leaving was neither that the Church had taken away her power to control Sumeru, nor that the creation of a new god was an overstepping of her authority, but that they had harmed her believers and many more innocent people of Sumeru!

"Don't overanalyze this. Those parasites from the Order of the Church, don't associate with me." Elhesen took a deep breath, then waved his hand dismissively.

It seemed as if those scholars from the Church of England, whose whereabouts were unknown, were not worthy of being associated with him.
