The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

Zhiqiong got a little angry when he heard this, and was about to debate by citing many stories of great adventurers who used mortal perseverance and courage in desperate situations and eventually wrote legendary stories.

At this time, Zhiqiong saw Lin Ye using lumen stone catalyst to stimulate light with elements to purify the sludge outlet.

"Okay, let's go." Lin Ye said.

"…OK."

Lin Ye and Zhi Qiong came to the only road leading to the lower mining area and found it blocked by an iron gate.

"It should have been closed during the retreat. Looking at the keyhole, two keys are needed, and we don't know where the keys went." Zhiqiong saw a notice next to the gate, informing the location of the warehouse where the shells were stored, so she said, "Perhaps we can use the [mountain-blasting cannon] to blast it open."

"Mountain-blasting cannon?"

"Yeah, I don't really know much about big guns. Sister Jinwu had anticipated this situation, and she was going to hire a powerful Mond blaster, but she didn't expect him to enter the Abyss so quickly, and she didn't have time to implement it."

"Mond's blaster?"

Lin Ye thought of Ke Li.

"I do know a Demoman, also from Mondstadt. I wonder if we are talking about the same person."

"Really?" Zhiqiong was not interested in this topic.

She was thinking about how to make a mountain-blasting cannon, as the team clearly lacked talent in this area.

"...Let's go back to find Sister Jinwu first. She should have a solution." Zhiqiong said helplessly.

Zhiqiong was full of energy and wanted to continue exploring, but the iron gate blocked her way.

Mountains can be climbed by humans.

The iron door could not be opened even if a person hammered his hands into pieces. Zhiqiong estimated that he did not have strong teeth and flesh, so biting it would not work either.

Lin Ye disagreed.

"How can a cannon be so inconvenient? Zhiqiong, get out of the way..."

Zhiqiong tilted her head, not understanding what Lin Ye wanted to express for a moment. She saw Lin Ye took out a dark red sword. It was the first time she saw the sword, and the edge was as red as blood. Zhiqiong shuddered.

"Could it be that you want to..."

"My sword can cut iron like mud. If it can't even cut through the iron gate, I'll just bury it again."

“Move aside.

Zhiqiong did as she was told, thinking there was no harm in giving it a try.

Lin Ye stabbed his sword into the iron gate, and to his surprise he felt a great resistance. Oh, this iron is not ordinary iron.

Mobilizing the power of the Eye of God, Wolf's End suddenly burned with black flames. With Lin Ye's current level, the black fire could easily melt gold and iron.

Under Zhiqiong's surprised gaze, Lin Ye melted the iron gate.

“Oh.” Lin Ye took back the wolf’s last resort.

"That's amazing... In the future, when we venture into the ruins, we won't need to decrypt the code to find the key... No, Zhiqiong, Zhiqiong, how can you think like that? Decrypting the code is also part of the adventure."

Different from Zhiqiong, Lin Ye likes to pass the level by force.

After passing through the original iron gate, I walked a long and quiet road, during which I encountered several monsters of some level, such as the Rock Dragon Lizard, whose combat power was far superior to the Rock Slime. The latter was the Rock Dragon Lizard's plaything. The Rock Slime used hardened armor, but the Rock Dragon Lizard destroyed it with a slap of its backhand.

If it were any other monster of the same level as the Rock Dragon Lizard, it would be more difficult for Lin Ye to deal with it. However, Lin Ye took a look at his talent.

[Dragon Nemesis]: The skill of fighting against dragons has reached the pinnacle. It is not only experience, but also a belief. This talent will special attack all enemies, and the lethality will be increased.

This is the advanced talent of [Dragon Slayer].

This is exactly the power of my thinking!

Lin Ye easily dealt with the two invading rock dragon lizards with smooth movements. It was more like a chef facing the ingredients than a warrior facing the ferocious dragon lizard monsters. It was as pleasing to the eye as butchering a cow.

There was something wrong with the way Zhiqiong looked at Lin Ye.

Rock dragon lizard, for most adventurers, running away is a decent choice, because it is much more decent than being eaten and pulled out by a rock dragon lizard!

Such a powerful person should be famous. Zhiqiong thought, the more she thought about it, the more familiar the name Lin Ye sounded to her, as if she had heard of it from somewhere...

Chapter 424 Dark Empty Shell

After passing through the iron gate blockade of the main mining area, Lin Ye and Zhi Qiong walked through the long and narrow mine tunnel and arrived at the edge of a cliff.

At this time, Lin Ye looked up and saw the strange thing that Zhiqiong mentioned, the source of the mutation.

It is like an existence like the moon of the underground world, shaped like a ball, suspended in the air, entwining the huge rocks with an unknown force, flashing a fluorescent blue light.

"After the miners discovered this thing, [Lumenstone] began to proliferate wildly in the Stratochasm..."

"Lin Ye, what do you think is the connection between the two?" Zhi Qiong asked.

“Maybe it’s the overflowing energy that combines with the ore to give birth to Lumen Stone,” Lin Ye replied.

He stared at the source of the change in the sky and recognized it at first sight.

This is a crystal fragment...from the Frost Sky Nail.

Speaking of which, there is a Frost Nail deep underground in the Chasm.

When Lin Ye was chasing Eberhardt in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, there was no third person present, so apart from them, no one had ever seen similar fragments of the Frost Nail before their eyes.

Lin Ye did not mention it when he left Longji Snow Mountain, and now Ying did not accept the association's mission to go on an adventure to Longji Snow Mountain, so Zhiqiong and other adventurers did not recognize the source of the change.

Lin Ye lowered his gaze to the area below again. This was the place closest to the mutation. The pollution was extremely serious. A large amount of black mud gathered at the mud mouth. The monsters living here all emitted a purple-black aura and were obviously in a state of madness.

The sharp-eyed Lin Ye noticed the three scattered mechanisms, and Zhi Qiong also discovered them. The two looked at each other, and Zhi Qiong spoke first.

"You've also seen those three strange mechanisms. Let's go investigate this afternoon."

Zhiqiong put on the wings of good wind and quickly jumped off the cliff.

Lin Ye wanted to say something but stopped himself and sighed. There was black mud all over the ground below, and he was a little worried about Zhiqiong's health.

The forest followed closely behind as it began to shine.

The two of them landed on the ground at almost the same time. Lin Ye captured the moment when Zhiqiong's feet stepped on the black mud. His face turned pale and he couldn't help covering his forehead.

Upon seeing this, Lin Ye mobilized the power of elements to activate the Lumen Stone, purifying the black mud in a small area nearby, and the Lumen Stone also became dim.

"..."

“…Ahaha, Lin Ye, do you feel that the air here is thin, like being on a plateau, and your head is a little dizzy?” Zhiqiong explained with a dry laugh.

"Okay, I've recovered. Look, the first mechanism is right in front." Zhi Qiong walked away without waiting for Lin Ye to speak.

Lin Ye glanced at Zhiqiong's back. He had only known Zhiqiong for a short time. Logically speaking, according to Lin Ye's principles, he should let go of the desire to help others and respect the fate of others.

But after a short time together, Lin Ye had a good impression of Zhi Qiong. This girl is smart, humorous, and has her own persistence, which are all plus points.

But persistence can sometimes be described as stubbornness and stubbornness.

In his previous life, after Lin Ye completed the main storyline of the Demon God mission, he no longer went to the underworld map of the Layered Abyss. He was not quite sure what happened to Zhiqiong later. He did not quite understand why Zhiqiong was determined to explore in depth regardless of his own safety.

If Zhiqiong was someone that Lin Ye valued, like Shen He and Hu Tao, his partner, his friend, Lin Ye would have simply knocked him out and taken him away, no matter what the reason was, the most important thing was to keep him alive.

However, the relationship between Zhiqiong and Linye is neither good nor bad, and Linye doesn't think that his persuasion will make the other party give up.

Let's take a step by step.

Lin Ye stepped forward and called Zhiqiong to stop.

"Yes, take it."

"This is?"

Zhiqiong took it, looked down and saw that it was a talisman.

"It must be a top-quality item if it's made by immortals. Wearing it on your body can help you calm your mind, ward off evil and eliminate evil. I hope it helps you. Don't force yourself." Lin Ye said.

"Such a precious treasure...you need it too." Zhiqiong wanted to return the talisman to Lin Ye.

Lin Ye waved his hand and took out another talisman, "I still have this thing."

In fact, with Lin Ye's current physical fitness, although he calls himself a mortal, it is just for show. He has a special physique and absorbs various forces to temper his body. The fragments of the Frost Nail and the mud outflow have little effect on Lin Ye.

"Thank you, how much Mora... No, these immortal treasures are priceless and cannot be measured in Mora." Zhi Qiong was very grateful. The talisman had a great effect on her. The symptoms of dizziness and physical weakness were greatly alleviated.

"If you really want to thank me, then listen to me. Stop exploring here and leave the rest to me." Lin Ye said.

The talisman was naturally a gift from Shen He. She made a lot of them on a daily basis, each with different functions and methods of use, and gave them to relatives and friends. The one in Zhiqiong's hand was just the most common type.

Zhiqiong turned around and looked at the mechanism, pretending not to hear it.

Lin Ye chuckled and went forward to check the mechanism.

The mechanism was covered with black mud. Lin Ye tried to purify it with Lumen Stone. There was a source light nearby to replenish the Lumen Stone.

The black mud disappeared, and the red crystal at the tip of the mechanism shot a beam of light towards the fragments of the Frost Sky Nail.

"There are two more." Zhiqiong said, "I don't know when these mechanisms appeared. It seems that they didn't exist before."

"Oh?"

"It's not difficult to think of using lumen stones to activate these mechanisms, but no one has tried it, and none of the evacuated miners mentioned these mechanisms, which means they didn't exist before," said Zhiqiong.

"Maybe someone arrived here first and made these mechanisms." Lin Ye guessed.

The two went to the second mechanism location.

Supplement light source and purify successfully.

The third agency.

Lin Ye was about to purify himself when he suddenly became alert. He turned around and pulled out the Wolf's End, stood in front of Zhiqiong, and blocked with his sword.

A heavy weapon with a strange shape came smashing down.

The clash between heavy weapons tests the strength of the users, and Lin Ye is not inferior to anyone except Shen He. He can wrestle with the rock dragon lizard and smash the giant axe hillbilly thug with his bare hands.

After a dull bang, Lin Ye steadily blocked the attacker's attack. Then Lin Ye turned around and chopped the attacker back, and also saw the attacker's appearance clearly.

This is a knight, like a body without a soul, without a brain to command, with limbs twisted in movement. He is wearing rock-black armor and holding a flag-shaped weapon that is burning brightly. The mysterious black knight walks towards Lin Ye and Zhi Qiong.

"What kind of monster is this?!" Zhiqiong asked in surprise.

She hadn't reacted at all to the attack just now. The noise from the weapons colliding made Zhiqiong's teeth ache and her heart pounded.

"Who knows?" Lin Ye said casually.

A dark empty shell, level 49, a former knight of Kanreya, deeply worn out by the curse, losing his sanity and memory, with only his remaining will possessing his instinctive actions to drive away the enemy and protect his people.

The dark empty shell had no ability to speak, he waved the flag as always.

"Come on." Lin Ye was fearless and strode forward, with black flames burning on the Wolf's End.

Two minutes later, the dark empty shell turned into powder and disappeared, perhaps it was relieved.

Lin Ye retracted his wolf's move and turned to look at Zhiqiong.

"Are you okay?"

"I should ask you, are you hurt?" Zhiqiong asked with concern.

"It's obvious." Lin Ye replied. He walked to the mechanism and purified it with the Lumen Stone.

In an instant, Lin Ye's vision changed...

Chapter 425 Speaking of which, I am your predecessor

The black sun, like a symbol of doomsday, rose into the sky. The once majestic palace collapsed and a sea of fire broke out. There were wailing sounds everywhere.

A black tide surged from the cracks in the earth. The creatures of life bestowed by the witch and the monsters that already existed raged along with the tide.

The soldiers and knights of the kingdom fought monsters with guns to protect the people behind them, but they did not notice the changes that happened to those people...

Lin Ye suddenly woke up from the hallucination and heard Zhiqiong's voice in his ears.

“Hey, Lin Ye, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me. You’re clearly enduring it and you’re still teaching me a lesson.”

Lin Ye turned his head and something was stuck on his forehead. It was the talisman that Lin Ye gave to Zhiqiong.

Lin Ye stretched out his hand and took it away, telling Zhiqiong not to press the talisman on his forehead. How could you use the talisman like that? It would make him look like a zombie.

Zhiqiong took back the talisman, "You are too concerned and confused. What happened to you just now? I called you but you didn't say anything, you look like a teenager with dementia."

"I saw some images and everything is fine now." Lin Ye said casually.
