Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 335: Overt cultivation and secret crossing

"Okay, stop guessing. The most urgent thing is to guard this place first and don't forget our original purpose." Rex said.

"Got it, Captain!" everyone shouted in unison.

Suddenly, a teammate pointed to the woods not far away and said, "Captain Rex, there seems to be someone over there!"

Rex was stunned and looked in the direction he pointed.

Under the cliff, in the forest, four figures were looming in the shadows. Although they were far away, Rex recognized their identities at a glance because of their familiar attire.

"Ivan? Why are they here?" Rex asked in surprise with his eyes wide open.

"Do they want to deal with the monsters in the village alone?" said a female team member nearby.

"This is too much! Everyone says now is not the time to show off!" Rex clenched his fists, turned around and was about to go down the mountain.

Seeing this, a team member beside him quickly turned around and asked: "Captain, where are you going?"

"Where else can we go? Call them back, of course!"

At this moment, the therapist next to me suddenly said, "Oh! I remember where I've seen them before!"

"Hmm? Tell me about it." The female team member asked with a little interest.

"On the wanted poster."

"What?" Rex was stunned and turned around to ask, "Are you sure? They are mercenaries, not a treasure-stealing group. How could they be on a wanted poster?"

The therapist was very decisive: "No, I remember clearly that the wanted poster for the Fallen Angel Brigade sent from the border had their portraits on it."

"The Fallen Angel Troupe?" Rex was shocked again. "They are the enemy of the guardian. How could they come here to serve as mercenaries?"

Hearing this, everyone grew serious. Especially the female team member who had been there. After a moment's consideration, she looked at Rex and said, "I'm sorry, Captain Rex. I understand how you feel right now, but the development of the situation forces us to reconsider our plans."

Rex remained silent. Although he did not respond, he did not raise any objections either.

The woman continued, "We don't know the Fallen Angel Brigade's purpose for infiltrating this place, but I suggest that we inform the Mercenary Association first, even if it means alerting Lord Lei Zun. After all, you all know that there are threats lurking in that village that we are unaware of. If we allow them to develop, I'm afraid it will only lead to an even greater disaster."

Rex's fists clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound. He did understand the impact of this matter, but even though they had only been together for less than a day, he still refused to believe that Ivan and the others were actually cadres of the Fallen Angel Brigade.

After a moment, he finally unclenched his fist. "Alright, then, as you say, send someone back immediately to report the situation to the Mercenary Association. The rest of you will stay here and observe the situation."

The woman looked at the therapist and said, "I think you should go back and report. After all, you're the only one here who remembers their portraits."

The therapist nodded: "Well, that's it, but if something unexpected happens here..."

Before he finished speaking, a strange female voice suddenly sounded from the side: "Don't worry, there will be no accidents."

"Who is it?" Rex turned around quickly and saw a woman standing behind him.

She wore a plain white robe embroidered with pale golden cloud patterns, a string of bronze bells dangling from her waist, and her slender legs and bare feet were a sight to behold. Most striking of all were her amber eyes, which shone with a mysterious brilliance in the sunlight.

At this time, a calm man walked out from the side. He was wearing a brown-gold robe with dragon scale patterns embroidered on the hem, and a brown plastic product hung around his waist.

"Don't worry, everyone. We are just travelers passing by. If you don't mind, you can leave the trivial matters in the village to us." He stood on the ground and said calmly.

"Leave it to you?" Rex was a little surprised, but he quickly adjusted himself. "I'm sorry, although I appreciate your help, but that village..."

Before Rex could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gui Zhong.

She smiled softly: "Don't worry, we came down from the mountain to deal with this matter."

"On the mountain?" Rex was stunned again. "Wait a minute, could it be that you two are the ones in the rumors..."

The immortals of Hidden Mist Mountain. He wanted to ask this, but was interrupted again the next second.

"Sister Guizhong, Brother Zhongli!" Perissa suddenly appeared in front and urged.

"Oh, I see!" Gui Zhong smiled and looked at Zhongli, "Let's go, Zhongli, Lisa is starting to urge us."

"Yeah." Zhongli nodded without saying anything else.

The three of them walked towards the edge of the cliff, then jumped off. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared, leaving only Rex and the others standing there in shock...

In the distance, among the dense forests.

It and the others had already taken off their disguises. The four of them walked in the dense forest, always alert to their surroundings.

"Huh, what a surprise. We didn't find out yesterday, but we didn't expect to hear the news today." Feng Ling sighed.

"Of course. The Mercenary Association is a gathering place for news. No one can guarantee what kind of accidents will be waiting for you in the future." It turned around and smiled.

Hearing this, Kuang Dao glared coldly: "Cut it off! If you ask me, it's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse, pure luck."

"However, luck is also a part of strength." It smiled slightly, and then continued to move forward, while Kuang Dao followed behind and made a disdainful "tsk".

"But it's amazing that you could come up with such a plan. You let those mercenaries guard the surroundings, but you sneaked here. Aren't you afraid of being seen?" Feng Ling asked with her hands folded.

Yi Te sneered: "So what? Even if they follow us, we have to be able to get out alive."

The four continued forward, and soon the abandoned village came into view.

"We're here." It stopped and looked at the ruins in front of him.

The surroundings were in a mess, but nothing unusual was found.

"Is this a ghost village? There's nothing special about it." Kuang Dao said with his hands spread out, looking around.

At this time, Yite sighed softly, put one hand on his waist and warned the three people: "Be careful, we will step into the territory of the 'Shagui' next."

After saying that, he took another step forward. Seeing this, the three of them had no choice but to follow him.

As soon as I arrived at the village entrance, I saw a mess ahead. Scattered bones and ruins almost filled the road, and the air was filled with the smell of decay.

As the four of them stepped into the village, suddenly, a white mist rose out of nowhere.

Although Yite was still frightened, he remained calm.

As they continued forward, the fog grew thicker, and visibility was reduced to the outline of the ruins. Yite looked around without paying attention to his feet.

Suddenly he stopped and looked at the ground. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was a sword.

He picked up the iron sword, looked at it in his hand, and touched it lightly, and it felt sticky.

No, it's blood, and fresh blood at that.

Itt frowned and quickly took out the fog light he had prepared earlier. The light penetrated the thick fog and illuminated a horrifying scene in front of him. There were countless fresh bloodstains and broken weapons scattered on the ground. It was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place here not long ago.
