Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"We must not let them succeed!" Zhao Heng put down his hands and said seriously.

"That's right, let's stop them now!" Karen said as she sat up.

At this moment, everyone was about to leave and asked the maid for the specific location, but suddenly Yang spoke up to stop them.

"Wait a minute, it's too late to go now. Once the seal is broken, the two monsters will wake up immediately. Then not only will you not be able to stop them, but you may even become their meal!" She said with a frown.

"What should we do? We can't just sit here and waste time, right?" Karen asked anxiously.

But Yang replied very naturally: "I, the guardian of Shaling, am not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?"

Karen was silenced by the sudden words. She looked at Mo Yan and saw that he also shrugged.

"The emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is."

"I know the situation is critical right now, but the more so, the more we need to remain calm," Yang continued. "The most urgent thing is to order all tribes to prepare their defenses. You know, monsters are afraid of monsters of higher levels than themselves. If these two calamity-level monsters suddenly arrive, all creatures and monsters, whether in the desert or the rainforest, will be frightened and flee in all directions."

Akano nodded and said, "That's true. If those monsters break in while we're fighting them, we won't be able to connect head to tail."

Yang nodded and continued, "Yes, and we must be prepared as well."

Kailin and Mo Yan exchanged a glance and asked, "What preparations are you making?"

Yang lowered her hands and slowly stood up: "Come with me first."

After she instructed her maid on the tribe's response measures, she led everyone out of the central pavilion and upstairs.

"Although the Calamity-level monsters are not as powerful as the Void Spirits, they are equally troublesome. Therefore, we need to find information about them so that we can deal with them more easily."

Everyone followed Yang to the third floor of the castle.

"That makes sense. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle." Zhao Heng nodded.

"But you just said that these two monsters were bred by the Sangyang people. They ran wild during experiments and came to Shaling, and were then sealed by local warriors. Is there any information available about this sudden situation?" Zi Xuan asked.

Yang nodded and replied, "Of course. When the counterattack began and the tribe raided the laboratory, they found many experimental records written by the Sangyang people, including information about these two monsters."

As she spoke, she led everyone to the study door. After opening the door, a cloud of dust instantly blew into the room, and everyone couldn't help coughing. When the dust cleared a little, everyone could see the scene inside the room clearly. There were many bookshelves, filled with various books and scrolls.

At this moment, Yang walked into the room and, with practiced movements, found the experimental records that had been seized and sealed that year. It was a custom-made parchment book, two fingers thick, and felt very heavy when he picked it up.

She plopped the notebook down on the dusty table, instantly stirring up a cloud of dust. Then she flipped open the book, searching for the entry she had previously read.

"Let me think about it, it seemed like I had found it."

Count, page 890, two unborn monster embryos were found in the contaminated earth veins of the desert. Upon discovery, Major Takube immediately sent someone to move them to the laboratory.

After three days of observation, the embryo gradually took shape. In the following 30 days, the embryo grew wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, in less than two months, the embryo was formed.

Desert Experiment No. 1, with its large concentration of rock and toxic elements, possesses a snake-like form with eight heads and a brutal nature, hence the name "Yamata no Orochi." Observation revealed that Yamata no Orochi possesses exceptional regenerative abilities and a toxin capable of corroding steel.

Desert Experiment No. 2, imbued with the element of fire, clad in scaly armor and possessing three heads, is named the "Three-Headed Fire Dragon," capable of surviving in magma. The three-headed dragon possesses the defensive power of a dragon, capable of flight and aerial attacks, beyond mere physical strength. This brings immense strength to our island tribe. We believe that soon, not only Rinki, but even Teyvat will be brought under our control.

"Regenerative power and corrosive toxins, followed by aerial attacks? I have to say, this is indeed a tough opponent." Akano couldn't help but be amazed.

Yang took a deep breath and said, "Although it's tricky, it's not without a solution. Now that we know their characteristics, we have room to maneuver."

At this time, Tianlang pointed to the line of words below and said, "Look here, it seems that this was written after something happened in the laboratory!"

On the 78th day of the observation experiment, something went terribly wrong! Previously captured Subject 128, "Gray Wolf," went berserk during the mutation experiment. Despite every possible means employed by the lab, it failed to contain itself. Finally, during its rampage, it shattered the vessel containing Desert Subject 1.

Then the Yamata no Orochi smashed the vessel of the three-headed fire dragon, and the experimental subject and two monsters escaped and their whereabouts were unknown. The laboratory was almost destroyed.

Everyone looked at the records with serious expressions.

"So that's how those two monsters escaped," Akano said. "Should I call it lucky or unfortunate? If those two monsters had really been used on the battlefield, the fate of Teyvat would have been sealed without even waiting for the Saint to take action."

Tianlang nodded and said, "Fortunately, the Holy Lord finally came out of seclusion in time and lowered the Holy Spear. Otherwise, who knows how long this war would have lasted."

At this time, Kailin asked, "It says here that those guys also conducted other experiments at the time. Could it be that the records in the book 'Grey Wolf' are all of them?"

"You guessed right. These are all experimental records written by them using the flesh and blood of the people of Linhui. Every number on them represents a living life. Unfortunately, at that time, we had to stabilize the operation of the earth veins to ensure that the world would not fall apart. Otherwise, I would never let these livestock go." Akano said solemnly.

"Okay, bringing up the past will only make you more sad and powerless. Now put your ambitions aside. The most urgent thing is to solve the crisis at hand." Yang said seriously with his hands folded, and then he began to think.

At this moment, Zhao Heng asked from the side: "Miss Yang, judging from your expression, do you think you have already made up your mind?"

Yang nodded. "I can't say I'm sure of it. The Yamata no Orochi's venom is definitely a problem, but the challenge lies in its destructive power and regenerative abilities. And then there's the three-headed flame dragon. To be honest, I'm not as steady as the Thunder Lord Blood Princess in air combat."

"What's so difficult about this? Just leave the three-headed dragon to me and you can focus on dealing with the Yamata-no-Orochi." Akano folded his hands and smiled confidently.

"Oh? Are you so sure?" Yang looked up and asked.

"I can't say I'm sure, but right now in the team, I'm the only one who has anti-aircraft means and can attack and defeat the enemy, right?" Akano shook his head and then replied.
