Yae from Genshin Impact is my sister

Could it be that someone is fighting the Ruins Guardians inside this cave? And what about those Ruins Guardians outside the cave? Were they also awakened from this cave? For a moment, Yura was troubled by these questions. This trip to the snow mountain was really not peaceful. She just wanted to accompany Amber to participate in an event and earn some Mora, so why was it so difficult?

"Since someone has managed to find this place, then serve the Abyss!"

A deep voice came from inside the cave. Before Hu Tao and the others could figure out what was happening, a water blade pierced through the air and rushed straight at the unsuspecting Amber.

"Amber, be careful."

Yura, who had relaxed her guard thinking there was no danger in the cave, didn't have time to push Amber away. In the blink of an eye, several glowing butterflies rose up on Kurumi's body, and Kurumi pulled Amber away from where she was and appeared next to the cave wall.

"Amber, are you alright?"

"It's alright, we owe it all to Walnut this time."

Yura stepped forward to check on Amber and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that Amber was not injured. At the same time, her anger was surging. How dare they sneak attack Amber? It seems they really don't know the temper of Yura Lawrence.

"Which bastard is it? Get your ass out here right now!"

"Hahahaha, did you hear that? That's the sound of the tide from the abyss!"

"Although I don't know how you got here, this will eventually be your grave."

An abyssal apostle, radiating water elemental energy, slowly floated out from the depths of the cave, the dense water elemental energy forming a shield around his body.

"The resounding end!"

Perhaps realizing that they were outnumbered, the water-attribute abyss apostle didn't waste any more words, conjured a water blade, and charged towards Hu Tao and the others. Hu Tao and the others also grabbed their weapons, ready to teach the abyss apostle a lesson.

At that moment, a sliver of light suddenly appeared behind the Abyss Apostle, and a thick laser beam slammed into the back of the water-attribute Abyss Apostle.

With a scream, the water-attribute abyss apostle turned into a puddle of ashes and disappeared before Hu Tao and the others. Hu Tao and the others looked at each other, wondering what was going on.

Chapter 202 Each Person's Dilemma (5)

"Use lightning! Is that hammer in your hand just for show?"

"The Fools are all soaked. Are those Abyss Mages idiots? Can't they even see a simple freeze reaction?"

As Ying watched the fight below, she waved her fists for a hundred years, her little mouth never stopping, as if she were pointing out the world.

“Ying, the way you are reminds me of the onlookers watching people play chess on the streets of Liyue.”

"Really? Never mind all that, this is a rare sight of villains fighting villains, Mona, are you really not going to watch?"

Mona shook her head. She noticed that not only Luminous was like this, but Paimon and Klee seemed to have been influenced by her as well, constantly waving their fists to cheer on the Fools who were struggling in the battle.

"Go for it, you evil uncles of the Fatui! Klee's bombs are all ready, they'll definitely satisfy you."

What kind of outrageous things is Klee saying? Is she the only normal one among them? Mona pressed down on her magic hat and looked at Shen He beside her. Seeing that Shen He was unmoved, Mona breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that not everyone has been corrupted by Ying. At least Shen He is still reliable.

Because there is a pool of water in the open space below the Starry Cave, and most of the Abyss Mages are ice-attribute, although the Fools initially suppressed the Abyss Mages with their numerical advantage, the wisdom of the Abyss Mages was not something those big, dumb Fools could look down upon.

After accidentally freezing several Fatui, the Abyss Mages began to intentionally or unintentionally lure them to the edge of the pool. Caught off guard, the Abyss Mages launched a permanent freeze attack on the Fatui, freezing them one by one into ice blocks and sinking them to the bottom of the water like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

Seeing so many of their brothers drown, the Fools were momentarily tempted to retreat. However, the Abyss Mage would not let them off so easily. Their beloved elder brother, the Water Abyss Apostle, had already gone to deal with another fragment of the Frostfire Nail. As long as they could hold out until their elder brother returned, the Fools could simply wait to die.

The poor Abyss Mages are still locked in battle with the Fools, unaware that their beloved leader, the Abyss Apostle, has been reduced to ashes—or rather, not even ashes remain.

"It feels like it's going to stop now; I haven't seen enough yet."

Ying glanced at the two sides locked in a standoff again, feeling somewhat unsatisfied. This was far more exciting than her battles. Watching the two groups of people fall into conversation again, Ying couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

"These Fools are really cowardly. They're going to negotiate already? Not only are they cowardly, but I think they're also stupid. It would have been much better to launch a sneak attack while these Abyss Mages weren't paying attention."

"It'll be a bloody battle; it won't take many people to kill these abyss mages."

Mona had intended to say something like that, but after thinking about it, Ying seemed to have a point. Moreover, Ying's words opened up a new idea for Mona. Since Ying could use water elements to infiltrate underground undetected, shouldn't she carry a small knife with her at all times?

That's not entirely unreasonable. As an astrologer, her martial arts skills are indeed quite weak. If there's a way to instantly reduce the enemy's numbers, being a little unscrupulous isn't out of the question.

"Well, it should be about time. The Fools and Abyss Mages below should have almost run out of elemental power, so they're just a showpiece now."

"Klee, you can start throwing bombs now. Those abyss mages without elemental power are no different from plush toys. A few bombs should kill them all."

Upon hearing Ying say that it was time to throw the bomb, Klee selectively ignored what Ying said next and eagerly picked up the bomb she had prepared and threw it down.

"Bouncy Bomb!"

"Boom! Sparks!"

"We can blow them all up!"

The bouncing bombs falling from the sky startled the Abyss Mage and the Fools. Before they could even react to what was falling from the sky, the cute-looking bouncing bombs began to flash in front of them.

As the roar of the explosion and billowing black smoke rose from below the Starlight Cave, the screams of the Abyss Mage and the curses of the Fools gradually subsided. After the sounds below the Starlight Cave completely disappeared, Ying led the group there.

Looking around, apart from the traces left by the explosions, there was almost no intact land to be seen. The solid ice that originally floated on the pool was completely melted away by the fire element generated by the explosion of the bouncing bombs.

"My goodness, is Klee's Bouncing Bomb really that powerful?"

Paimon stared at the scene of devastation before him, utterly unable to believe his eyes. This... this was terrifying! Klee, at such a young age, could already accomplish something like this; what would happen when she grew up? Wouldn't she be able to easily destroy the entire Starlight Cavern?

Mona swallowed hard. This level of destructive power was truly worthy of someone who inherited such great knowledge. Even at Klee's age, or even now, it would probably take her a lot of effort to destroy a piece of land like this.

"This should be one of the reasons for the snow mountain storm. I have to say, this ice element is really terrifying. If it weren't for this warm fairy spirit, we would probably all have caught a cold."

"Then we should be able to thaw this fragment. I remember there should be red stones where there is ice like this, and those things can thaw ice."

Ying looked around and, sure enough, found a red stone in a corner. Klee tilted her head and looked at the red stone. She could sense that there was a strong fire element in the stone. Perhaps she could use this stone to make a bouncing bomb next time. In that case, the bouncing bomb would definitely be more powerful.

Paimon felt the low temperature around her and suddenly realized that she had never tried chilled Honeybee before. Paimon took out a bottle of Honeybee and silently licked it. The unique taste of chilled Honeybee made Paimon's eyes light up.

"Hehe, chilled honey is so delicious! It's cool, smooth, and sweet, so slurp~"

Seeing Paimon enjoying his meal so much, Klee couldn't resist asking Paimon for a bottle of Fudge's Nectar. She had never tasted frozen Fudge's Nectar before.

"Is it really that delicious? Paimon, Klee wants some too, to trick the nectar off you."

"It's really delicious! Here, Cleo, have a bottle."

The gluttonous Paimon didn't notice that there was still some nectar on his tongue when he spoke. The nectar dripped down Paimon's small tongue and landed on the fragments of the Frostfire Nail. Not wanting to waste it, Paimon licked it without thinking.

"Ying, you're so clever (help!), my tongue is stuck in my throat (I can't get it off)."

Ying was dumbfounded when she saw Paimon licking the ice cubes to taste them. Didn't Paimon know that you shouldn't lick things in cold environments? Sure enough, even this emergency food can cause her some trouble.

Chapter 203 Each with Their Own Dilemmas (6)

"What, what's going on? That beam of light just now doesn't seem like something a normal ruins guardian could do, does it?"

Inside another cave, feeling the heat wave hitting her face, Hu Tao took a few steps back. What the hell was going on in the depths of this cave? If that beam of light had hit her just now, the Hall of Rebirth would probably have lost its lineage.

Yura frowned. According to the intelligence of her Lawrence clan, the only enemy capable of launching such an attack should be that thing called the Relic Heavy Machine.

However, Relic Heavy Machines should be very rare. How could one appear here, and even be an activated one? Could it be that the Abyss is after the Relic Heavy Machine? If that's the case, this is no small matter. We must tell Qin about this.

"You idiot, don't you know our boss is out there cleaning up the small fry?"

"You can't blame me for this. Who knew this big, dilapidated thing could fire lasers?"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Let's hurry up and go check on our boss. If he dies here, we'll be in big trouble when we get back."

“Our eldest brother is not someone who is easily defeated. Let’s quickly finish dealing with the Frost Nail fragments here. We still need to go to another cave to deal with the remaining piece.”

Just as Yura and the others were calming down, four or five ice-attribute abyss mages chatted and slowly flew out from the depths of the cave. They seemed to be very confident in the water abyss apostle they had just met.

"You, how are you still alive?"

Seeing Hu Tao and the others standing there unharmed, an ice-attribute abyss mage was stunned. His face behind the mask was full of disbelief. They knew how strong their elder brother, the Water Abyss Apostle, was. How could their elder brother have been eliminated in such a short time?

Hu Tao looked at the abyss mages in front of her, then at the huge crater blasted out by the pillar of light. In that instant, she seemed to understand something, and the abyss mages opposite her also seemed to understand something, looking at the huge crater in disbelief.

"Could it be that our eldest brother has already...?"

"Alas, please accept my condolences. I never expected your elder brother to turn into a pile of ashes and drift away with the wind. However, your Abyss doesn't have Mora, so even if he hadn't turned to ashes, he couldn't afford the box from the Hall of Rebirth."

"So you don't need to be sad, it's all preordained."

Hu Tao's seemingly comforting but actually provocative words caused these ice-attribute abyss mages to lose their minds. "Damn it! Our leader has turned to ashes and you're still making sarcastic remarks? Do you really think we abyss mages are easy to bully?"

"Brothers, let's go! Let's show these ignorant fools the power of the Abyss!"

Upon hearing this, the abyss mages deep within the cave continued to advance towards the location of Hu Tao and the others. Several ice-attribute abyss mages manipulated ice shards to attack Hu Tao and the others. What seemed deadly to others was utterly insignificant to Hu Tao.

"Oh dear, if it were just you guys, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to keep us here."

Holding the Staff of Homa, Walnut charged straight into the crowd of ice-attribute abyss mages. Scorching fire element burst forth from the Staff of Homa, and the fire element amplified by the Staff of Homa instantly sent the abyss mages, shields and all, flying away.

Watching Hu Tao poke around among a bunch of Abyss Mages, Amber's eyes were practically overflowing with envy. Looking at the West Wind Hunting Bow in her hand, she felt for the first time how bad she was at archery. "Coach, I want to learn this! I want to be able to go in and out of the Abyss Mages seven times too!"

Seeing that Hu Tao was about to wipe out all the Abyss Mages by himself, the Ice Abyss Mage, who seemed to be of a relatively high level among the Abyss Mages, couldn't sit still any longer. He already didn't know how to explain the death of their leader, the Water Abyss Apostle, to His Highness the Prince, and now a bunch of Abyss Mages had also died.

Most importantly, with the Apostle of the Abyss dead, no one can tamper with the Frostfire Nail fragments anymore. The task assigned by the prince has not been completed, and a large number of loyal subordinates have been lost. He can already imagine the scene of him appearing in front of the prince and being torn apart by His Highness.

"Damn it, since the mission has failed, I'll dedicate myself to His Highness!"

Since he was going to die anyway, he might as well die here and gain a reputation for loyalty and righteousness. With a determined look, the ice-attribute abyss mage turned around and flew into the cave.

The Abyss Mage's actions completely stunned the onlookers and even Hu Tao, who was engaged in battle. Meow meow meow? He talked a good game, but then turned around and ran away. You're something else.

Perhaps due to the snowy mountain environment, none of these abyss mages were fire-attribute. With limited hiding places in the cave, the abyss mages had no way to escape, which allowed Hu Tao to rampage and kill them all.

In just three minutes, not a single abyss mage in the cave was still able to stand up. Several pitiful abyss mages even had arrows stuck in their foreheads. Clearly, these abyss mages whose shields had been broken had been used by Amber for practice.

"Phew~ It's so nice not having a fire-attribute abyss mage. It's a pity you don't have any large-area ice-applying moves, Yura, otherwise I could have shown you the melting reaction."

As Yura watched the abyss mages dissipate, she gained a preliminary understanding of Hu Tao's strength. She had to admit that Hu Tao was indeed very powerful, and the spear in Hu Tao's hand was a rare weapon.

"Let's go, we should go deeper into the cave and take a look. I wonder what those abyss mages are up to."

The cave was initially very narrow, barely wide enough for one person to pass through. After walking several dozen steps, it suddenly opened up. As they continued to go deeper, Hu Tao and the others arrived at an open space. In the center of this place was a strange fragment that emitted ice elements. Meanwhile, the ice-attribute abyss mage who had escaped here had flown onto the head of a relic machine gun.

"Haha, even though I can't beat you guys, you can stay here with me!"

"You can't possibly escape the self-destruction of the Relic Heavy Machine!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant relic machine beneath the ice-attribute abyss mage twitched a few times and cracks quickly spread across its body. Under the worried gazes of Hu Tao and the others, and amidst the abyss mage's laughter, the towering relic machine shattered into pieces with a loud crash.

This sudden change turned the ice-attribute abyss mage's evil laughter into a duck's quack that sounded like its throat was being squeezed—a sound that was utterly unpleasant to hear.

"No way, why did your energy run out at this time? You weren't like this when you attacked my brother!"

The abyss mage angrily kicked a shard on the ground, and the next second, the abyss mage screamed and fell to the ground, clutching its short legs and howling in pain.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this abyss mage is seriously injured, beyond saving, just cremate him."
