Chapter 177 Is it serious? If it's not serious, then I'm dying.

Countless ice elements condensed into sword shadows and gathered into a ball, rushing towards the back of the guardian like a rolling stone. The ground along the way was covered with a layer of ice. It is conceivable how low the temperature of this ball formed entirely by ice element sword shadows is.

However, the Guardian remained unmoved by the sword energy that was approaching from behind him, and continued to move forward quickly towards the Coral Palace Heart Sea that had attacked him earlier.

Seeing that the guardian was about to approach him, Xinhai could only use all his strength to use water elements to gather into a high-pressure water column to desperately stop the guardian from moving forward.

But no matter how much water element Xin Hai used, the Guardian's pace did not slow down. Instead, he seemed to be completely enraged and started jumping and running.

Just when the Guardian was about to raise his hand to attack Xin Hai, the knife shadows behind the Guardian finally arrived. Countless knife shadows slashed at the Guardian's back frantically. Every slash left a large amount of ice elements on the Guardian's back, and reacted with the remaining water elements on its body.

Gradually, the guardian was covered with a thick layer of ice, and the movement of swinging its fists gradually stopped until it was completely motionless.

Seeing the guard was frozen, Xinhai and Linghua both breathed a sigh of relief, and Xinhai even wiped his sweat with lingering fear.

If the guardian cannot freeze her, she will be the one to suffer in the next second!

Fortunately, although this monster looks ferocious and does not resemble the native creatures of the continent of Teyvat, it still has to follow the rules of Teyvat.

Linghua put away the blade, walked to Xinhai's side with a smile, raised her hand and touched Xinhai's palm.

"Miss Xinhai, your cooperation is great."

"This is also thanks to Miss Linghua's superb swordsmanship."

After easily defeating the Guardian as planned, the two began to flatter each other.

Mona, who had been standing aside and watching the duel from the beginning without daring to say a word, looked at Lu Xiu beside her with some disappointment.

"Why did you summon a rookie? You went to all that trouble to kidnap them both, didn't you, just to watch them take a bath?"

Lu Xiu, who had been looking at the frozen guardian, looked thoughtful. Even when he heard Mona's question, he answered casually with an indifferent look on his face.

"How is that possible? Why would I bring them back if I wanted to see them bathing? I have plenty of ways to see them."

Mona curled her lips in disbelief. "Anyway, you've lost now, and you'll have to arrange for them to go back later. Hehe, this is the first time I've seen you lose. It's a pity I don't have a camera, otherwise I would have taken a picture of your distraught expression!"

Lu Xiu turned around speechlessly and flicked Mona's smooth forehead with his fingers. The pain made her squat down with her head in her hands and let out a painful cry.

After teaching Mona a lesson, Lu Xiu turned back to look at the Guardian ice sculpture and vaguely saw some cracks in the ice.

"Hey, the Guardian is not that simple."

As if in response to Lu Xiu's words, the thick layer of ice that froze the Guardian shattered into powder in an instant. The Guardian broke free and angrily opened his mouth wide towards Xinhai and Linghua who were bragging about business to each other.

The sound of the ice breaking also attracted the attention of Xinhai and Linghua. When the two girls turned around, they saw the guardian opening his mouth and a translucent sound wave spewing out of his big mouth.

Before they could react, the sound waves hit them hard. In an instant, Xinhai and Linghua felt as if their internal organs were slapped hard in the face. They spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with some internal organ fragments. They both flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

The two women who fell to the ground didn't even have the strength to struggle. They could only watch the guards running towards them.

Linghua and Xinhai lay helplessly on the ground, remembering what Lu Xiu had said before, and immediately planned to ask Lu Xiu for help, but the two girls opened their mouths but could not make a sound. It was obvious that the sonic attack just now had also injured their vocal cords.

Seeing the guards getting closer and closer, but they were unable to make a sound for help, Linghua and Xinhai closed their eyes helplessly.

Just when the Guardian was about to launch an attack, Lu Xiu finally moved.

When he saw Linghua and Xinhai falling to the ground, he thought they still had the strength to resist. After all, they were the rare holders of the Eye of God.

But unexpectedly, after they fell to the ground, they didn't even have the strength to get up, so Lu Xiu came down to help.

Lu Xiu took out the Sky Harp and threw it at the Guardian like a boomerang, but the Sky Harp's floating effect did not work on the Guardian.

Fortunately, because the Guardian was summoned by Lu Xiu, no matter how fiercely Lu Xiu attacked, it just stood there stupidly until Lu Xiu killed it completely. Then it turned into a shadow and merged into the eroded ground.

"Phew, luckily my summons won't attack me, or I'd have to work really hard."

The Guardian's ability to ignore shields and armor, as well as its terrifying knockback resistance, are all headaches for MC players.

I think the Guardian was able to break through the ice just now because of its terrifying resistance to knockback.

There is no so-called freezing in the original version of MC, and the only control you can get is knockback.

Perhaps, this knockback resistance is the sum of all control resistances?

After the Guardian was controlled, he may have adapted to the freezing state for a short time before breaking free from the control.

Is it because of adapting to the rules of this world? Or is it because of something else?

Lu Xiu was a little confused and planned to experiment again when he had time later, or directly experiment on the battlefield.

On the other side, Xinhai and Linghua had already closed their eyes in despair, waiting for death, but after waiting for a long time and not feeling the guardian's fist falling, they carefully opened their eyes.

When they saw that it was Lu Xiu standing in front of them and the guardian had disappeared, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense nerves relaxed. Then they fell into a coma due to their serious injuries.

Lu Xiu turned around and wanted to ask about Xin Hai and Ling Hua's injuries, but when he saw them vomiting blood and fainting, he quickly called Mona over and carried them into the villa.

After putting the two girls on the bed, Mona began to examine them. After the examination, Mona's brows suddenly furrowed.

Lu Xiu stood aside and stared at Linghua and Xinhai for a few seconds. However, he didn't know much about medicine, but seeing them vomiting blood was a little scary. "Is it serious?"

"It's not serious, but they're already halfway to the brink of death. I guess they can already see their great-grandmother standing on the other side of the river waving at them."

Chapter 178 You Are Free

Lu Xiu was stunned when he heard Mona's words, but then he reacted.

"Why don't you get medical help right away?"

Mona said helplessly, "I'm just an astrologer. The most I can do is tell you that they will die in a few minutes. I can't cure any illness! The only medical skill I know is putting a band-aid on a wound!"

Lu Xiu quickly took out two enchanted golden apples and tried to put them next to their mouths, reminding them to eat them. However, Linghua and Xinhai had already fainted and could not respond to Lu Xiu.

Lu Xiu had no choice but to take out two bottles of healing potion and pour them into their mouths. In order to prevent them from choking, Mona also helped support their necks.

The two of them were in a panic for a while before they finally fed the two bottles of healing potion.

A moment after taking the healing potion, the injuries on Linghua and Xinhai recovered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, the healing effect stopped after they had recovered slightly.

After all, the healing potion only has so much power, but it is enough to restore them to the point where they wake up.

Lu Xiu reached out his hand and gently patted the two girls' pale faces twice, calling their names softly.

"Miss Xinhai? Miss Linghua? Wake up."

Following Lu Xiu's call, the two women lying on the bed gradually opened their eyes. They were so weak that they couldn't help coughing a few times as soon as they woke up.

The two girls who had just woken up were still a little confused, so Lu Xiu quickly put the two enchanted golden apples next to their mouths and reminded them.

"Eat this first."

Linghua and Xinhai opened their mouths obediently and began to eat the enchanted golden apples in small bites. Fortunately, Lu Xiu had just fed them a healing potion, which gave them the strength to eat the enchanted golden apples. Otherwise, they would have to be taken to the city for treatment.

After eating slowly for a few minutes, Linghua and Xinhai finally finished eating the enchanted golden apples. The injuries on their bodies were healing rapidly. In less than a minute, they sat up in bed as if they had never been injured, and even looked at their hands in disbelief.

Linghua was amazed. "What a powerful healing method! I thought this enchanted golden apple would only increase our strength, but I didn't expect it to have healing properties!"

Xin Hai was also surprised, and even more so, he turned to Lu Xiu and asked, "Mr. Lu Xiu, are you selling this enchanted golden apple?"

If each rebel could carry two or three enchanted golden apples, they would be able to completely defeat the shogunate army even if they were facing a much larger number of troops than the rebels.

"Of course I sold it."

Xin Hai was immediately delighted by Lu Xiu's words, but before she could say how many enchanted golden apples she wanted to order, the price Lu Xiu mentioned immediately made her discouraged.

"A Mora is worth about a million, right? How many do you want?"

Xin Hai silently calculated the number of Mora existing on Haiji Island in his mind, and shook his head awkwardly: "I'm just curious, sorry..."

Kaigi Island is too poor now. Although Kaigi Island has many unique specialties, the shogunate has blocked Kaigi Island's trade with the outside world. This has led to their stock of Mora being extremely scarce, and they have to buy food more by bartering.

Linghua, who was sitting nearby, was nervous for a moment when she heard Lu Xiu say he wanted to sell it. She was also worried that the rebels would be able to easily defeat the shogunate army after getting this magical apple.

It seems that the rebels are short of money now, so there is no need to worry about this matter.

But soon Linghua thought that it was not her turn to worry about the shogunate army now.

The duel agreed upon with Lu Xiu failed, and she and Xinhai could not return to Inazuma. What happened there basically had nothing to do with them anymore.

When she thought of this, Linghua sighed softly and raised her fair neck.

Lu Xiu looked a little confused. "What do you mean? I'm not a vampire. I don't like neck biting."

Linghua looked at him with some confusion and asked, "We failed, aren't you going to tie us up again?"

Lu Xiu waved his hand nonchalantly, "No need, there's no need for that. My goal has been achieved. Of course, if you have a hobby in that area, I can satisfy that."

Just a few minutes ago, Lu Xiu received a private message from the lady, saying that the shogunate army and the rebel army had gathered at Nashiki Beach and would launch an attack tomorrow morning.

Lu Xiu just needs to teleport over there tomorrow morning. As for Linghua and Xinhai, to be honest, they are no longer useful.

Even if they escape now and quickly find a ship to Inazuma, it will take several days to cross the ocean and return to Inazuma. By that time, Lu Xiu's mission will be completed.

When Linghua and Xinhai heard that they didn't have to be tied up anymore, they were immediately overjoyed.

After all, they were both people of status, and it was too embarrassing to have someone put a rope around their necks. They unconsciously developed a little affection for Lu Xiu, and even didn't care about the fact that Lu Xiu had kidnapped and taken advantage of them.

"You can do whatever you want next. If you want to go shopping in Mondli, you can just bring Mona with you and let her be your guide. If everything goes well, I'll take you back to Inazuma tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Of course, you can also go back on your own if you want."

"really?"

Xinhai and Linghua looked at Lu Xiu in disbelief. They were already very touched when Lu Xiu said that he would no longer restrict their movements.

Now Lu Xiu actually allows them to move freely. Is he really not worried that they will escape?

"Really? Okay, you guys chat slowly, I'm going to sleep first."

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Xiu decided to rest early and go to Mingzhui Beach early tomorrow morning to complete the task.

"Good night, everyone."

Lu Xiu said good night to everyone and went into his room. Mona yawned a little sleepily.

"I'm going to sleep too. If you guys want to continue chatting, please keep your voice down. Bye~"

With Mona's departure, Xinhai and Linghua were the only ones left in the hall.

After confirming that Lu Xiu and Mona had left, Linghua whispered to Xinhai, "Miss Xinhai, do you think Lu Xiu really won't restrict our freedom? Or is this a test for us?"

Xinhai pursed his lips and thought for a while, "I think it's true. His expression doesn't seem fake, and judging by the way he treated us after capturing us, it certainly doesn't seem like he wants to do anything to us."

"Well, that's what I thought. In that case, how about we take this opportunity to go to the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt and explain the situation to them so they can send us back?"

"Okay, let's go tomorrow."

Chapter 179 The War Begins

The early morning at Nashiki Beach should be a peaceful scene in Japan, but now the sounds of waves and the calls of seabirds have disappeared, leaving only a solemn atmosphere in the air.

The rebels and the shogunate army were only a mile apart, and the soldiers on both sides were ready to fight to the death.

Goro came to the front of the battle and glanced at the shogunate army in the distance through a telescope. Seeing that the enemy's number far exceeded his own, his heart sank to the bottom, but he did not dare to show it on his face.

If he, as a general, starts to panic, the morale of the army will be completely broken.
