Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

As the last skeleton crystal beast was killed by Kailin with a dagger, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, before they could recover, more skeleton crystal beasts swarmed around.

At this moment, everyone stood back to back again, showing bitter faces.

"Tsk, this never ends." Mo Yan gritted his teeth.

"What should I do? There are still so many. I'm afraid I won't be able to finish them even if I fight until dark." Karen became panicked again.

"It's not just the numbers, but also the physical strength. If we don't find a way to leave, we'll probably die of exhaustion here, and then..." Zhao Heng didn't continue, because everyone knew the outcome.

"No, I don't want to become food for these monsters!" Kailin said anxiously, then looked at Mo Yan, "Mo Yan, aren't you the one with the most ideas? At this point, hurry up and think of a solution!"

"What can I do? I'm afraid I'll be back to the underworld before I even think of a solution!"

"No way, if even you can't do anything, then we are doomed. Oh my God, anyone, please come and save us!" Karen prayed.

On the other hand, Tianlang, standing in the middle of the four, had a serious expression on his face as he calmly analyzed the situation: "Strange, why are there so many Skeleton Crystal Beasts suddenly running out? What exactly has happened here recently?"

"Why are you still thinking so much? You're a guardian after all, so you should at least show off your hidden strength. Can you please stop being the last one in line?"

Suddenly, a whistling sound pierced the sky, and then, a dashing man in silver armor, wielding a spear, appeared before everyone's eyes. Sunlight shone on his armor, reflecting a dazzling light. And then, a whistling sound followed, and the cry of killing shook the heavens!

"How's it going? Is everyone alright?" The man turned around, revealing a handsome, angular face with a confident smile on his lips. Suddenly, he shook the spear in his hand, and a dazzling golden flash of lightning burst out from the tip.

"Dongfang Lei, it's you!" A hint of surprise flashed in Tianlang's eyes.

"Isn't this Lord Tianlang? What a coincidence. But..." He turned to look at the Skeleton Crystal Beast in front of him, "Hehe, let's talk about it later!"

He marched out, spear in hand, and the army behind him swarmed in. In an instant, the tide of battle turned. Dongfang Lei was unstoppable, golden lightning dancing on the tip of his spear, each strike accurately hitting the vital points of the crystal core.

"Form a formation! Everyone, coordinate your attacks and don't let any monster escape!"

"Order!"

At Dongfang Lei's command, the well-trained soldiers quickly formed a triangular battle formation.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened. Every time a skeleton beast was severely injured by his steel gun, Kailin would show an incredible look.

"Who is this guy? He's so fierce!"

"The commander of the Linglang Guard, Dongfang Lei," Tianlang said, folding his arms. "He's a contractor under Lei Zun. The elements he uses are similar to the 'War' of Itt, the Fallen Angel Brigade. But don't get me wrong, his power comes from the power of protection, the rare gold element, not the Fallen Angel element."

On the battlefield, Dongfang Lei's steel spear flew through the air like a dragon, disintegrating the skeletons of crystal beasts wherever the golden lightning passed. Suddenly, he struck back, pinning the attacking crystal tiger to the ground. Lightning flashed from the spear tip, shattering the crystal core.

"No wonder he is so powerful." Mo Yan exclaimed.

"Yes, every shot hits the vital point, and it is caused by smashing. If it were Zhao Heng, he would definitely not be able to do this." Kailin couldn't help but click her tongue.

Zhao Heng nodded after hearing this: "Indeed, I have to admit that."

"After all... the Gold Lord is a murderer. For him, relying on heavy blows and direct destruction is more effective on the battlefield than pursuing excessive sharpness. That's why he uses a steel spear instead of an ordinary gun." Tianlang explained with a smile. "But to be honest, it's more like another element derived from heavenly thunder than a rare single element. After all, it moves like thunder."

As he spoke, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed. The largest purple crystal scorpion suddenly began to spin, and countless sharp crystal fragments rained down in all directions. Dongfang Lei quickly swung his spear to form a golden barrier, which finally neutralized the attack.

"Let's not talk about this for now. I think we should go over and help first!" Zhao Heng said as he turned the spear again.

"Yeah, the sooner it ends the better!" Karen showed her ring and took out a large-caliber sniper rifle.

Not far away, Dongfang Lei's steel gun burst out with a dazzling golden light. The lightning wrapped around the gun body increased the length of the gun. He leaped up and smashed the steel gun in his hand towards the crystal scorpion.

Golden lightning cascaded down like a waterfall, cracking the crystal scorpion's massive body in the lightning, completely reducing it to wreckage. Then, he gripped the butt of his spear tightly and swung it across, instantly severing all the surrounding crystal skeleton beasts in half with the golden light.

At this moment, Mo Yan whistled: "Whoosh~ Looks like we don't need to do anything at all."

With Dongfang Lei's assistance, all the skeleton beasts were defeated in less than half an hour. After the battle ended and the soldiers began to clean up the battlefield, he slowly walked over to Tianlang.

"Long time no see, Lord Tianlang. I'm sorry, I was a little too anxious just now, but it's okay now." He said with a smile while carrying a steel gun.

Tianlang shook his head and said, "It's okay. This time, thanks to General Dongfang's help, otherwise, my companions and I would have been killed by the monster long ago."

Dongfang Lei smiled heartily and stuck his spear into the ground. "Lord Tianlang, you're too kind, but..." His gaze swept over Kailin and the others before returning to Tianlang. "Why are you with these outsiders? And with your strength, these monsters should be no match for you."

"This... is a long story. We can't stay here for long. How about we go somewhere else to talk?" Tianlang scratched his head and said.

Dongfang Lei nodded thoughtfully and waved to his adjutant, "You guys clean up the battlefield first. I'll take these guests to Linglang first!"

"Captain, I know!"

All the soldiers responded.

So Dongfang Lei took a few people and picked up the fragments and frame of Kailin's off-road vehicle that fell on the ground, and then left the dangerous canyon with everyone.

But when everyone left, a pair of eyes were silently staring at them from high above.

"Chief, the monsters we lost this time..."

Just as the barbarian man was about to report, he was stopped by him.

"It's okay. It's just a minor loss. Besides, Dongfang Lei and those guys are not easy to deal with. As long as it doesn't affect the final plan, there is no failure for us." The barbarian leader looked at the figures gradually leaving, then turned around and said, "Let's retreat."

"Yes!"

"By the way, regarding the Brigade, what do they want this time?"

"Reporting to the leader, the doctor didn't say anything clearly, but only asked for data on the monsters after they mutated. It seems that he was deliberately testing us."

"Hmph, it seems like he's using us as guinea pigs for his experiments. But it doesn't matter. Our cooperation was just about using each other."
