"We have wings of wind, fly down!"
"Oh, then hold me tight, I'm scared."
Ying spread her wings of wind and slowly descended, and soon she arrived at the platform at the bottom.
The strange purple stone at the bottom of the cave emits a little light, and the fluorescent plants and lumen crystals around it also emit light, allowing people to see the situation inside the cave clearly.
When they looked up, the scene before them shocked them.
"This is... a city! In the air, upside down, a whole city?"
Paimon and Ying both widened their eyes. The city stood steadily upside down on the top of the cave, with no sign of falling down at all.
"Looking at this city, Ying, do you remember anything?"
"The filthy reversed idol!"
"That's right! That's it! It's weird, upside down, and a bit shocking. So, is it true that the Abyss Cult and your brother are doing something under the Layered Abyss?"
"Let's look for clues around here first. I don't know how to get up there."
Ying looked around and suddenly saw a portal open, and a familiar figure rushed out of the portal.
"Dainsleb???" Paimon asked in surprise.
......
In a small villa in Liyue Harbor.
Lin Zixuan looked at the scene, holding his chin and thinking.
Is it the will of the world, or is it deliberately manipulated by some existence?
The timing of Dainsleb's appearance was too coincidental. He chased the Apostle of the Abyss into the portal a month ago.
It was incredible that he would rush out just when Ying arrived at the upside-down city.
There were many small seals in the abyss that needed to be cracked, which took them a lot of time. It should have slowed down their exploration progress, but they still got the same result.
Someone must have interfered, making their meeting an inevitable fate.
I looked at Paimon next to the traveler Ying. Could it be that she was guiding Ying's destiny?
Then it shouldn't be a problem if I intervene a little, right?
......
Dainsleb exchanged the information he knew with Ying.
"The Abyss... Is this the place beneath the Abyss? Even I have never been to this place... So, what will the Abyss Cult do here?"
"Are you saying that the Abyss Cult is planning to carry out some action here? This place is too weird. The city hanging upside down looks very much like the Filthy Reversed Statue."
"So, right now, we are... most likely being watched by the 'Abyss'."
"Hmm... speaking of peeping. I always feel like something is wrong." Paimon looked left and right, trying to find out what that peeping feeling was.
"The abyss is staring at you..." A majestic voice came to his ears, scaring Paimon so much that he moved closer to Ying.
"Paimon, on your shoulder..." Ying saw a miniature man sitting on Paimon's shoulder.
Paimon looked over his shoulder and found someone. "!!! You bad guy! You're teasing me again!" He angrily tried to pull the person off, but he couldn't pull him off.
"Well, don't bother. I came here to ask Dainsleb a question."
"There should be nothing for me to talk about with you. I have no comment on the affairs of Kanreya." Dainsleb said a little coldly.
"Don't be so quick to refuse. Some exchange of information is necessary. Right?"
"Okay, just ask!"
"How long did it feel like after you entered the portal following the Apostle of the Abyss?"
"Does it feel like a long time has passed? Let me think, probably only about three hours."
"Is that really the case? We entered the abyss portal in the area around the Fontaine border, right?"
"Yes."
"Big bad guy, what are you talking about with Dain?" Paimon was a little confused when he saw the two asking and answering each other.
“Allow me to do a little shielding, although I don’t know if it will be of any use.
Seal: Eternal Isolation!"
A spherical seal enveloped the four people. Stars appeared around them, as if they were in the universe.
“What I’m going to say next, keep it to yourself and don’t mention it in the future.
Let's talk about Dein first! He has become a pawn of some kind of existence.
I found out that Dyne entered the portal on August 8th, and what date is today?"
"I know, today is October 10th." Paimon answered first.
"And Dain said that he only spent about three hours after entering the portal. But in the outside world... it has been more than a month.
Dain...I think you haven't looked at the calendar for a long time, right?
"...I haven't watched it since I was cursed with immortality. Even if I did, I would forget it quickly.
In other words... my meeting with Ying was not accidental, but inevitable?" Dai Yin looked at Ying, not knowing what he was thinking.
"I understood it very quickly. Your meeting can be said to be deliberately guided by some existence behind the scenes.
No matter how much I delay, Dain will meet you here and now.
Ying is very important to that unknown being. So important that he is willing to bend time to let you two meet. "
"Then was Ye Lan asked to investigate the Layered Rock Abyss because he was guiding us there?"
"It's more like a cause-and-effect situation for Ye Lan. Because one of our ancestors is missing and the other has gone mad, and we can't find any information, we came to you for help. It can be said that the seeds have been planted long ago, and time is just waiting for them to sprout.
On Dyne's side, it's more like a reversal of cause and effect. First, there was the result that you were bound to meet, and then there was the problem of time. After all, Dyne was cursed with immortality, so even if time was adjusted, it had almost no effect on him. "
"What is the purpose of doing this?"
"I don't know, but judging from the current situation, I want you to feel how innocent Kanreya, a country destroyed by the gods, is.
Or maybe you want this palace captain from Kanreya to guide you towards Kanreya. For example, let you see the miserable situation in Kanreya."
"Kanria is innocent!" Dainsleb glared at Lin Zixuan.
"Then can you tell me again what is the concept behind making the tiller?"
“Land is not plowed with farm tools, but fought for with iron and blood.”
"So, when you see the beautiful scenery of the world above, will some of the people in power who control Kanreya have other ideas?
You once fought bravely against the abyss and seized piece after piece of land that belonged to the abyss. The unprecedented prosperity of civilization is naturally inseparable from the collision of ideas.
People have seven emotions and six desires. Without a powerful god to suppress them, it means that there is no existence that can unify your entire Kanreya thought. Even the royal family of Kanreya cannot completely suppress them.
Go deeper into the study of the earth veins, the abyss, and forbidden knowledge. Because you have no gods, you can do research that can destroy everything without any taboos.
The final result will make Teyvat's borders even more fragile, and then everything will become irreversible.
It's like a house in the path of a flood. The owner of the house builds sandbags outside to fight the flood, but inside there are a group of rats desperately digging at the load-bearing columns of the house. As the owner of the house, how would you deal with these rats?
As a member of the mouse family, you can naturally say that the other group of mice in the same nest only eat grass for a living and have never dug up the load-bearing columns of your house.
So do you think it is better to kill all the rats at once? Or let them go and wait for them to come out again and dig the supporting columns later? "
"You are lying!"
"What I said is indeed a twisted logic. After all, I am a vested interest, so I naturally have to protect my own interests. From a personal perspective, I will not consider your feelings at all."
"It's obviously you who refuse to accept us!"
"Then do you know about Haiqi Island? They are also ancient remnants, they also have no gods, and they also possess miraculous technology. As descendants of the White Night Kingdom, their history may even be longer than yours in Kanreya.
They made a different choice from you, so they have already seen the light of day and become part of the Inazuma family. What do you think led to the two different results? "
"..."
"In other words, someone wants to interfere with my journey, pass certain ideas and information to me, and then gradually change my views and make me go in the direction that He wants?" Ying's face was not very good either.
"Could it be that your brother has also been affected?" Paimon also looked at Ying.
"I don't know, but my brother and I would never become strangers like we are now. Not to mention that I don't know anything now and haven't even chosen a path.
Even if we choose different paths, it shouldn't be difficult for us to sit down together, have a meal, and chat, right? My brother's behavior is too strange."
"Then I won't bother you anymore. See you later. Don't take it too seriously. Knowing what happened to Kanriya is actually quite beneficial.
Those involved are often confused, but those who are watching can see things more clearly. You will have several more "accidental" encounters in the future, so just keep a calm mind. The truth will slowly surface. "
Lin Zixuan pinched Paimeng's little face and then disappeared, making Paimeng stomp his feet in anger.
Chapter 305 Reversal Failure
"I am so angry!"
Paimeng rubbed his face which was red from being pinched by Lin Zixuan, and looked at the little guy with his hands on his hips.
"He is warning you not to talk nonsense like a fool."
"I wouldn't! Dain, why don't you say anything?"
"I'm thinking about something. I followed the Abyss Apostle into the portal at the end of August. Is it already October? But I don't think that much time has passed. I used my immortality to blur my perception of time, allowing us to meet at this moment.
An unknown existence that can control time and the abyss portal? Master Xuan must have done something and then found that he couldn't reverse our encounter. I may have been used as a pawn by the 'abyss'. "Dynesreb analyzed.
"Then what do we do next?"
"Although I really want to leave like this, there must be an unknown purpose for our meeting. Let's keep this matter in our hearts. After all, even Master Xuan can't change it, let alone with our current strength."
"So you don't resist?"
"It's not the right time. We are already in the chess game and need to get out of it. I will check this out later."
"Okay, now here comes the question. How do we leave the Big Bad's seal?"
The three of them looked around. The special seal made them feel as if they were in the universe, and they did not see any place resembling an exit.
Suddenly, the seal shattered like a mirror, and the three of them returned to where they had been standing in the Layered Abyss. Dain and Ying nodded to each other.
"Let's investigate first!" Ying said.
"There seems to be a fire near the rock wall over there. Let's go over and take a look." Dain looked towards a bright place.
"Well, let's go!"
......
Qunyu Pavilion.
Ningguang and Ye Lan were exchanging information.
"There are still many people in Liyue who asked the bank to exchange their Liyuan savings for Mora?"
"The Intelligence Department has collected a list of these people. They will be the group most likely to cause problems in Liyue next year."
“If you don’t follow Liyue’s pace and Mora becomes worthless, you can’t blame anyone else.
Forget it, let the General Affairs Department do some ideological work on them, and save as many people as possible."
Ningguang rubbed her brows. It had been less than two years since the Rock King retired, and all these monsters and demons had appeared. It felt like Liyue had treated them unfairly.
"How is the situation abroad?"
“Mond and Inazuma have already started replacing Rigen, and like us, there are also some voices of opposition.
The officials of Fontaine and Nata are still hesitant, but many large chambers of commerce in Fontaine are very cooperative with us.
Nearly a quarter of the people from the Xumi Order Academy have secretly gone to the port of Omos to exchange for Li Yuan.
Only one-fifth of the tribes in the desert expressed support. Some tribes have also begun to hate the rich. The General Staff estimates that it will soon turn into a tribal conflict. "
"Clash of Clans?"
"Jade's father, Gabriel, was very powerful. He traveled among many tribes and taught them to learn the Liyue language.
They generally have good relations with the merchants in Liyue, and they make a lot of money by transporting various desert specialties through Aru Village. Those tribes that didn’t make any money are just jealous.”
"Send someone to mediate?"
