Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 363: The Game Within the Game (Part 2)

Nayuka pulled out the steel knife from his back and looked around: "You, haven't you already, how come..."

"Why are we here? Do you really think those guys from the Fallen Angel Brigade can deal with us?" Zi Xuan said, holding a magic wand.

"That's right. They thought they could kill us by luring us into the trap. Little did they know that this was a trap we set for you." Zhao Heng said with his hands folded.

"But don't worry, those minions of the Fallen Angel Brigade who pretended to be messengers are now in jail. After all, when they saw that we were outnumbered, they quickly raised their hands and surrendered." Ye Lan teased.

Hearing this, Nayuka gritted his teeth and said, "So, this is a trap you set deliberately?"

"That's right, we put in a lot of effort to lure you out." Karin said proudly with her hands on her hips.

……

The evening before, inside the hotel.

"What? You want us to "pretend" to be their spies and go to jail?"

Kailin's voice was very loud, but fortunately everyone around her was dismissed.

"Indeed, from Lord Tianlang's explanation just now, it's not hard to tell that right now, the people of Linglang are in a state of panic and suspicion. Rather than waiting for the enemy to take advantage of the situation, it's better to consolidate the public's understanding first."

Ye Lan folded her arms.

"As you can see, when you entered the city, all the residents looked at you with strange eyes. They were wondering if you would become the next brigade spy to sneak into the city to gather intelligence. Therefore, even though you are being wrongly accused, you must endure this crime."

"So you're using us as scapegoats!"

Karen stamped her feet in dissatisfaction.

Ye Lan smiled lightly, looking somewhat helpless.

"It can't be helped. Who let the Phantom of the Fallen Angel Troupe escape? Besides, as I said earlier, after this, those guys are bound to use this as a fuss. By then, no matter how you explain, they'll probably already be prepared for it."

"But it's too humiliating to let us go to jail!"

Kailin stamped her feet again, while Mo Yan fell into thought.

"You made us scapegoats, isn't it just to prioritize consolidating your messages?"

Ye Lan folded her arms and smiled gently.

"Smart, to be honest, putting you in jail is just one part of the plan. The real purpose is to uncover the rebels hiding in the city."

"Just as Sister Ye Lan said, that night, you really did work together inside and outside the city to create chaos. So we split our forces into two groups, one to guard the city wall, and the other to clear out the mutant monsters that you secretly brought into the city. Sure enough, just when we resolved all the dangers and thought we could finally breathe a sigh of relief, the spies you planted in the city started to make a fuss about this matter." Kailin smiled slightly, and recalled the scene at that time.

"My Lord, please don't be fooled by them. I saw with my own eyes that they let those monsters into the city and staged a show!"

The brigade member who was pretending to be seriously injured shouted at the top of his lungs, and the discussions of the people around him became louder and louder.

"At that time, we knew that the fish had taken the bait." Mo Yan smiled with his hands folded.

At this time, Ye Lan took a few steps forward and said, "Yes, remember the soldier who helped your people to give false testimony? He is my confidant. I told him to act according to the circumstances. Otherwise, how could your people achieve their goal of framing so easily?"

"So, those two shadow wolves at that time!" Nayuka was about to speak but was interrupted again.

Ye Lan folded her arms and said, "Don't get me wrong. I didn't send those two guide wolves to lead the way for them. And those two monsters were indeed tamed by you before. They just passed through our hands and are now our spies in the city."

"How is this possible?" Nayuka exclaimed in shock.

Ye Lan smiled softly. "Yes, logically speaking, it is indeed difficult to tame a monster that has already been tamed. This is all thanks to Huang. You may not know this, but in the past, he was actually a member of the barbarian tribe just like you."

"What? There is such a thing?" Karen asked in surprise.

"Yes, he is very familiar with the barbarian methods of taming beasts, but he is unwilling to endure your hatred, so he came here, to Linglang."

After hearing this, Nayuka gritted his teeth even more.

"So he is the traitor the leader mentioned earlier!"

Minghuang folded his arms, "Yes, it was me. The order and kingly way of Lingluo were established a thousand years ago. But Dou Kouda, like all the other chiefs, has stained this land with the blood of more of his compatriots because of a thousand-year-old hatred and a long-lost grudge. Stop it, Nayuka. We are originally the people of Lingluo. Lord Lei Zun's kingly way is not wrong. Look, even after a thousand years, this place is still prosperous, while our people can only linger in the wasteland. Even if you achieve your goal, what will it matter? Is the future you want to be like before, with wars and corpses everywhere?"

Upon hearing this, Nayoka, far from wavering, burst into hysterical laughter. "Kingly Way? Prosperity? On what basis? Is it because she is a puppet bound by order, or because of the massacre that came from the sky when the six major tribes fought each other a thousand years ago?"

"You!" Minghuang was about to step forward but was stopped by Ye Lan.

"Huang, it's useless to reason with such a person." She turned her head slightly and then looked at Nayuka again. "But no matter what, given your current situation, it's impossible for you to escape unscathed. Surrender, Nayuka."

Hearing this, Nayuka suddenly laughed secretly: "Surrender? Don't even think about it. Even if it means destroying myself and myself, I won't give in!"

As he spoke, he suddenly took out a red whistle, held the mouth of the whistle in his mouth and blew it hard. In an instant, the growls and roars of many monsters could be heard all around.

In the blink of an eye, the walls surrounding the entire pottery factory collapsed, and thousands of mutated monsters rushed out from the smoke and dust, surrounding them.

"No way, there are so many!" Karen held two guns in her hands and looked around vigilantly.

At this moment, Keqing, Dongfang Lei, and Minghuang scattered in all directions with weapons in hand.

"Don't worry, leave it to us!" Keqing said, holding a purple sword in her hand.

"That's right, let these guys see how powerful we, Linglang Siji, are!" Minghuang said with his fists clenched.

Ye Lan waved the chain sickle and smiled slightly: "Then we must fight quickly and decisively, but don't let anyone escape."

Dongfang Lei nodded: "Then let's go together!"

A blood moon was hanging in the sky, and the battle was about to break out. The entire abandoned pottery factory instantly turned into a Shura field.

"Purple shadows become swords, lightning flashes!"

Keqing stepped on the void, and the long sword condensed from purple lightning split the night sky. In the blink of an eye, it turned into countless sword shadows that shuttled through the night sky.

"Ten Thousand Swords, Heaven Comes!"
