The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"do you died……"

The enemy before him turned into a puddle of mud, and Tzin couldn't help but smile slightly. Then his vision went black, and he fainted.

"Zen!!!"

……

"Beep!"

The firewood in the campfire burned for too long and collapsed, thus sparking countless embers.

Tzin, whose head was throbbing with pain, gradually woke up. He opened his eyes and saw not only a sky full of stars, but also several heads crowding around him.

"Zen, you're finally awake!"

"I am..."

"We're out! Look...aren't we beautiful!"

His companions patted Tzin on the shoulder and then pointed to the distant mountains.

In the inky darkness of the night, fierce flames rose in the distance, and within the flames, the outline of a massive building could be vaguely seen.

Tzin was stunned. He raised his arm and saw that he had changed his clothes again at some point.

He paused for a moment, then the blank look on his face turned into a smile: "It's so beautiful, so I think there should be more of this kind of beautiful scenery."

What do you think, my friends?

Chapter 748 Even the Eye of God Can Be Over-issued

2024-06-29

"call!"

Inside the World Tree, a refreshed Ember withdrew his consciousness from its depths. Seeing that the people beside him still looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy, he immediately patted them on the shoulder.

"Sit down, we just need to keep waiting."

After saying that, Ember sat cross-legged and calmly looked up at the new buds on the World Tree.

There will always be someone busier than him.

"Wait?"

“That’s right, someone will help us with the Doctor’s slices, and it will be quick.” Ember smiled at the puzzled Narcida.

Then, he patted the latter's head and said, "You can go out and deal with the Sumeru problem with peace of mind. I think as long as that guy isn't stupid, he will give up parasitizing the World Tree soon."

As Ember spoke, he glanced up at the World Tree. He was confident the Doctor could hear him.

However, even if the doctor heard it at this moment, he probably wouldn't be in the mood to respond.

The doctor couldn't understand what Ember had done, as a large number of slices lost contact with him almost simultaneously.

Some of his slices travel on the ground, some are used for various studies underground, and some are used as experimental material.

It is virtually impossible to kill so many slices in an instant.

"What...did you...do...?"

Anger, surprise, and curiosity... a mix of emotions made the doctor less calm than he claimed.

"Let me ask you a question, how many people have you harmed?" Yu Jin didn't answer the doctor's question directly; instead, he threw out a strange question.

"I have no interest in...calculations..."

"Then you'd better think about it carefully in the future. After all, they now have the Eye of God, don't they?"

Ember smiled. The Doctor's slices were indeed troublesome, but no matter how troublesome something was, as long as enough people did it, it wasn't necessarily a difficult task.

For example, this is the case now. The number of people the doctor harmed in the past is the same number of people now hunting down his dissections.

Yu Jin roughly estimated that there were a lot of people, so many that they weakened his power.

And it wasn't just his strength that weakened; the strength of the other four street thugs within his body also diminished.

From now on, those who hide in the shadows will become slices of the doctor.

"..."

The Doctor fell silent, seemingly unable to believe Ember's words. But whatever his thoughts, the fact that a fragment of his consciousness kept disappearing from time to time was undeniable.

Indeed, there is a force hunting down his fragments, and it's quite powerful!

"Now, each of your slices should be very precious, right? After all, each slice represents a chance to live."

"Of course, if you think you'll have free time to create new slices later, then disregard what I said."

Ember added fuel to the fire, believing that over time, the little ones who had gained his power would become much stronger than they were now.

This is not just a matter of being proficient in using the Eye of God, but also because many of them are true geniuses—with a large enough population, there will always be geniuses.

No one knows what kind of mental fluctuations the Doctor experienced inside the World Tree; in the end, all everyone saw was the rapid growth of new branches on the World Tree.

"I underestimated you..."

"The last gift... Here you go!"

The doctor's tone was full of anger. What was the purpose of all this scheming, even at the cost of exposing his long-planned scheme to parasitize the World Tree?

Wasn't it all for the sake of obtaining the Heart of God? But now, instead of obtaining the Heart of God, I am in more danger than ever before.

Filled with resentment, the Doctor, this fragment transformed into a parasitic seed, completely merged into the World Tree.

Thus, countless buds grew on the branches of the World Tree. They were almost identical to the World Tree, diverting information from the earth, but were not under the jurisdiction of the World Tree.

With the doctor gone, Narcida's expression suddenly relaxed. She looked up at the "proliferative tissue" on the World Tree, clenched her small hand, and the white branches on it quickly glowed and withered.

"Clap clap clap!"

The withered branches fell from the World Tree like rain, turning into nutrients and returning to the World Tree's body.

This surprised Yu Jin, who was just about to show off his skills. How could things be going so smoothly this time?

"The Doctor seems to be just venting. He probably understands that he can't beat me inside the World Tree unless he goes all out."

Nasita looked at the pristine World Tree and sighed.

She was almost replaced within the World Tree, leaving her, the incarnation of the World Tree, speechless.

The Great Tree King picked up a withered branch from the ground that hadn't yet been digested by the World Tree and examined it closely. Then, she drew a conclusion.

"Don't underestimate yourself. If the previous fire hadn't burned a hole in the World Tree, the Doctor wouldn't have been able to parasitize it so easily."

The doctor's preparations were quite rudimentary. He simply modified his body to be highly compatible with the ley lines, and then used the ley line remains from the Abyss Mage as a catalyst to attempt to invade the World Tree.

This plan was very bold, because the Great Tree King estimated that without that fire, the success rate would be less than one percent.

The information turbulence within the World Tree is no joke. If it weren't for the great fire that forced the World Tree to use its power to suppress the flames, the Doctor might not have been able to find a way into the World Tree at all.

“But anyway, he went in, didn’t he?” Nasita threw all the remaining branches on the ground into the rolling sea of ​​information below.

“Let me think… how should we improve this…” Then, she pressed her head against the trunk of the World Tree.

Soon, the World Tree began to emit bursts of blue and white aurora, which shone brightly and contrasted with the pink and white sky, creating a dazzling spectacle.

The once pristine World Tree was suddenly covered with countless intricate patterns, each representing something that happened somewhere in the world at a certain time.

“This… should be enough.” Nasita moved her forehead away, and the scrolling information within the World Tree quieted down.

"What did you just do? It's making me dizzy." Yu Jin shook his head. He was still relatively okay, but Navelette next to him was already unconscious, her eyes rolling around.

The blue and white light just now was no ordinary light; it contained countless pieces of information. It wouldn't be surprising if an ordinary person's head exploded after just one glance at it.

"I was just reinforcing the World Tree's defenses and altering the information flow paths within it."

Nasita looked up at the World Tree, which had returned to peace, although the tree looked no different from before.

But once you delve deeper, you'll find that everything has changed. Whether it's the path of information flow, the outermost flow of information, or the place where information is stored... all of these are completely different from before.

[Even if the Doctor came again, he probably wouldn't be able to get in.] Narcida nodded in satisfaction. She turned around and saw a scene that made her heart stop.

"Villet, what's wrong with you? I remember that with this level of information density, no one should faint?"

Nasita was horrified to see Navelette lying dead on the ground. This surge of information shouldn't have been able to overwhelm the water dragon.

“What… just happened…” Nasita swayed on the ground for a while, and then Vilet finally woke up slowly, looking completely bewildered.

It seemed like the blue light surged on the World Tree just now, then his head started to spin, followed by a pain in the back of his neck, and finally everything went black.

"It's nothing, you're just overwhelmed by the information from the World Tree."

"Ember explained eagerly," he said, earning a roll of the eyes from the Great Tree King—"It was clearly him who delivered the chop!"

"Is that so? It seems I still have a lot to improve." Navelette didn't suspect anything, but felt that her tolerance for information was still lacking.

Chapter 749 Abyss Coward

2024-06-29

Sumeru returned to its former tranquility... well, not exactly tranquility. People were still marveling at the previous fire and explosion, and cursing the wickedness of the sages and the fools.

"Damn these fools! How dare they do such a thing in Mount Sumeru! They must be driven out!"

"And the Council of Sages! Four out of the six sages have gone mad, talking about creating some new god! Bah!"

"Hey, you two, get back here and eat right now! Otherwise you'll both go hungry all afternoon!"

The two boys, who were cursing the fools and the church, heard the woman's shouts from afar and immediately ran back home.

Even playful teenagers are discussing the recent events in Sumeru with such enthusiasm, not to mention the others.

Especially in the various taverns, once you go in and listen for a while, you'll feel that everyone there is a "legendary figure" who punches the false god and kicks the doctor.

The bustling atmosphere of Sumeru is evident.

"Why didn't you tell your people you were back?" Yu Jin asked the Great Tree King, who was also squatting down beside him, as he squatted on the curb.

“There’s no need. This is Nasita’s time. The Great Tree King has returned, and that’s news that could pull her down from her divine position.”

The Great Tree King made a shushing gesture. Now that the Council of the Faith has a huge power vacuum, and Narcida has been freed, this is the best opportunity for her to completely control Mount Sumeru.

If news of the return of the Great Tree King is released now, then Nasita's title of "Grass Goddess" will likely become an empty title again, without any real power.
