Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"What?!" Rednos' eyes flashed with surprise, and he hastily raised his knife to block.

The two weapons collided with each other, making a deafening roar. The dark purple and pure black elemental forces collided violently, and a dazzling wave of light exploded in the darkness.

The darkness of Shadow City was torn open by this light, and the brief illumination allowed everyone to see each other's position clearly.

"Ah, it's Mo Yan!"

The three of them were surprised at the same time, but they quickly reacted and pointed their weapons at Rednos at the same time.

Seeing this, Rednos waved his arms and then dodged all attacks with his swiftness.

"It can actually see my position clearly." He was a little surprised, until he saw the faint light coming from Mo Yan's right hand, he finally understood, "Elemental crystal? I see, that elf really likes to meddle in other people's business. But..."

He looked at the sword in Mo Yan's hand and hesitated.

"Rednos, your moves are useless now!" Mo Yan raised his sword and pointed it at him.

"That's right, now it's time for us to settle the accounts!" Karen said firmly with her hands on her hips.

At this time, Rednos smiled lightly and said nothing.

Mo Yan frowned: "Everyone, come together!"

He strengthened his weapon with his "talent" and prepared for the final attack.

"it is good!"

The three of them said in unison.

Zhao Heng stirred up the red thunder and swung his spear. Lightning gathered above his head like a dragon entering the sea, forming a large thundercloud. Zi Xuan poured in fire and poison at the same time. Dark red vines broke out of the ground with sparks, like poisonous snakes. Kailin showed her ring and swung a dagger at the same time, making all the reserve firearms stained with a bloody glow.

The attacks of the crowd gathered momentum and intertwined, creating a dazzling display. At this moment, Rednos suddenly raised his hands, and the dagger in his hand slid down his back and fell to the ground.

At this moment, he smiled lightly: "Okay, I admit defeat."

"what?"

The killing move was abruptly stopped. Kailin almost couldn't stop it and stumbled to the ground.

"Hey, are you kidding me?" she asked angrily.

For a moment, all attacks froze in mid-air, elemental energy surging through the air, yet it remained undefeated. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, clearly not expecting Rednos to suddenly surrender.

Rednos smiled and slowly adjusted his cuffs. "Don't get excited. He's right. You've already broken through the realm I'm good at. There's no point in continuing."

"So, I can understand that you acknowledge our strength?" Zi Xuan asked.

In an instant, all the attacks disappeared in the air.

Rednos nodded: "Of course."

Mo Yan put down his sword and walked forward: "In that case, I hope you can fulfill your promise."

"That's easy." Rednos smiled slightly, lowered his hands, and then gathered elemental power in his right hand to produce a dark amber stone with faint leopard patterns. "This is the guardian certificate of 'Shadow Overlord'. Now I will give it to you as a shared contract."

He snapped his fingers, and the environment around the training ground shrank instantly. Then he slowly walked in front of Mo Yan and handed the certificate to him.

Looking at Yingba's guardian certificate, Mo Yan was so excited that he was speechless, because this was not only the proof of their hard work, but also the first certificate he had obtained.

"Finally..." He reached out to take it, but at this moment, Rednos suddenly withdrew his hand and held the guardian certificate in his hand.

"Of course, this is conditional." Rednos said calmly.

Mo Yan's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and he blinked and was stunned.

"Hey! Do you think it's fun to play tricks on us?" He put his hands on his hips, rarely showing an angry expression outside of a battle scene.

Seeing this, Rednos smiled softly: "Don't worry, I will never go back on my word. It's just that I personally hope that you can stay and help me deal with the threat of the Fallen Angel Troupe."

Kailin sneered and then walked over to Mo Yan: "I thought it was something else. Don't worry, we will definitely stay in the abyss until Miss Funina is rescued."

"That's right." Mo Yan nodded.

Hearing this, Rednos smiled slightly: "In that case..."

Before he finished speaking, urgent footsteps and shouts were suddenly heard in the corridor outside the training room. Then, two guards in charge of the science academy hurriedly pushed open the door and came in front of everyone.

"Oh no, Mr. Rednoss!"

Rednos lowered his hand, and subconsciously took back the certificate in his hand. He turned around and looked at the guards and asked, "What's wrong? What happened again?"

The guard took a breath and nodded, "Yes... yes, it was Edlon. He suddenly broke into the place where Mr. Rex was interviewing and insisted that Mr. Rex was the murderer who killed Dr. Ash!"

Hearing this, Rednos frowned and instantly had a bad premonition.

"What?" Karen was stunned, as if the system had crashed.

……

At the Academy of Sciences, during Rex's interview, a silver-haired young man stood in front of Rex, and the scene was tense.

"Edelon, have you had enough? Dr. Rex is Dr. Ash's student. What you said is really too much!" A researcher stood up for him.

At this time, another female researcher also stood in front of Rex and defended him, "Yes, we know that you are very sad about your grandfather's death. We were all very sad when Dr. Ash passed away, especially Dr. Rex. He was even more sad than us at the time. How could he be the murderer?"

"That is to say..."

The crowd at the scene was buzzing with discussion, all pointing the finger at Edlon. They all said the young boy was being unreasonable because he couldn't get over his grandfather's death. Even though everyone was trying to excuse him, Rex remained silent.

"What do you know? These are just his disguises! His purpose is just to seize my grandfather's research results!" Edlon roared.

At this moment, the male researcher who had previously explained to Rex snorted coldly, "Huh, ridiculous! In all these years, when has Dr. Rex ever taken over Dr. Ash's research? Even when Dr. Ash met with misfortune, he didn't take all the credit."

"That's right, you said Dr. Rex was the murderer of Dr. Ash. Then I want to ask you what his reasons and motives were?" the female researcher asked again.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the hall suddenly opened, and Rednos walked in quickly with Mo Yan and others. The smell of gunpowder from the training ground had not yet dissipated, and it was intertwined with the anxious atmosphere here, making it even more solemn.

"What's going on? Edlon, what are you doing?" Rednos' voice was low and full of unquestionable majesty.

Seeing Yingba coming, the researchers were instantly overjoyed and ran towards him.

"Lord Rednos, you are finally here!"
