Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura

After listening to the reports from the Asura Guards, Lan Tian finished forging the longsword in his hand.

After cooling in the water, Lan Tian examined the longsword in his hand with satisfaction.

The sword is entirely light blue, with some white wave patterns adorning the blade, making it a one-handed sword with a marine theme.

After looking around and nodding in satisfaction, Lan Tian put away the longsword and then handed the remaining black iron to the blacksmiths and apprentices who had gathered around to observe.

"Keep these safe, the Shura warriors' equipment cannot do without you!"

Lan Tian patted the muscular old blacksmith who was leading the group and added:

"Materials are not a problem. Just go to General Kuanglong for whatever materials you need. Things are not going to be peaceful these days."

Upon hearing this, everyone present tensed up and said in unison:

"We swear to obey the orders of the God of War and the Emperor!"

Aside from some native Guixiu Limin people, some of the blacksmiths here are refugees who fled from other fallen demon god territories.

But one thing is certain: since they left home and returned to Guixiuli, their lives have been well-protected, and they no longer have to live in fear.

Although they were not native Guixiu Lizi people, they were better than Guixiu Lizi people.

Having been immersed in Guixiuli's culture for many years, these people from a foreign land have developed a strong sense of belonging to Guixiuli.

After thinking for a moment, Lan Tian went to the warehouse and saw that the magic crystal ore for forging that he had prepared last month was almost gone. So he immediately performed a miracle and used the power of construction to create a large amount of high-grade magic crystal ore forged from energy magic crystals to fill the warehouse.

After completing all the necessary preparations, Lan Tian left the logistics department and headed to Tianheng Mountain to meet with Ruoduo and Maxius.

"How's the personnel deployment going, you two?"

Before they even landed, Lan Tian asked Ruo Tuo and Maxius, who were disassembling and reassembling the last Returning Machine and loading it onto the flying sword.

Upon hearing Blue Sky's voice, Maxius patted Jodo on the shoulder, who was carrying parts for the Returning Machine with the Shura Knights, then went to Blue Sky's side and began to report:

"Master, all the Returning Machines have been packed and sent to the flying sword, but..."

Marcius looked with some concern at the unobstructed beach in the southeast of Tianheng Mountain and said:

"Wouldn't withdrawing all long-range fire support from here put too much pressure on Luo Xue? After all..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lan Tian raised his hand to interrupt Maxius.

"Marcus, what do you think is the reason you appointed Luo Xue as the deputy hall master of the Asura Hall?"

Faced with the question of the blue sky, Maxius stroked his chin, lost in deep thought.

Lan Tian was not in a hurry. Instead, he turned around and used his divine power to help the Shura soldiers move the military crates they were carrying onto another flying sword that had just come to a stop.

"Thank you for your help, Lord Shura!"

Seeing that all the things they were about to carry had been lifted onto Lantian's flying sword, all the Asura Knights present exchanged glances, gave each other their own special military salutes in Lantian's direction, and shouted in unison.

"No need for formalities, sirs!"

Lan Tian returned the greeting with a solemn bow.

After all the Asura Knights boarded their flying swords, Lan Tian turned to look at Ruo Tuo, who had come to his side, and patted him on the shoulder:

"Rodha, you should return to Guixiuli with the soldiers first. Morax may need your help later."

"Okay, Blue Sky, see you later."

Ruo Tuo nodded, boarded his flying sword, and waved goodbye to the blue sky and Marcusius left on Tianheng Mountain, together with thousands of fully armed Asura Knights behind him.

After watching Ruoduo leave, Lantian turned to look at Maxius, who was staring intently at him, and chuckled:

"Marcus, have you thought of what to say?"

Marcus nodded noncommittally and said seriously:

"To be able to serve as the deputy hall master of the Asura Hall, Luo Xue must not only possess the talent of a valiant Yaksha, but also have deeply inherited your skills in military strategy and command."

"clever."

Blue Sky patted Maxius on the shoulder with satisfaction, then turned and looked with Maxius toward the coastline:

"Aside from the treacherous sea cliffs surrounding Tianheng Mountain, that coastline was a necessary route for the enemy to launch a surprise attack on the Tianheng Mountain defense line, and the so-called surprise attack..."

Blue Sky turned his head and raised an eyebrow at Maxius.

Marco Xiushun immediately understood and excitedly added to Lan Tian's words:

"The so-called surprise attack means that the enemy is probably lightly armed. Once they face the fully armed elite guard legion commanded by Luo Xue, they will be able to crush them in terms of equipment alone!"

After saying that, Lan Tian and Marcus exchanged a knowing smile and burst into laughter.

Meanwhile, in the deep sea between Liyue and Inatsuki.

"What!? Are you sure this information was gathered by you and your men? Gui Xiuli is about to launch a full-scale attack on us?"

In a deep-sea palace, the spy who had been deliberately let go by Lan Tian and the others had changed out of his disguise and revealed his true appearance.

After hurriedly greeting the guards at the door, the scout rushed in, ignoring the several Ocean Alliance demons who were arguing heatedly about the fall of the Ocean Demon God in the reception room. He immediately knelt on one knee in front of the large conference table made of sea crystal in the center of the reception room and loudly reported all the information he had previously gathered.

The one who just spoke was the second-in-command of the Ocean Alliance—the Ocean Demon God, Kali.

Aside from being the second-in-command of the alliance, the Ocean Demon God is also the younger sister of the fallen Ocean Demon God.

From her appearance, the Ocean Demon God is a tall, blue-haired mature woman with a curvaceous figure and striking good looks.

However, although the Ocean Goddess is beautiful, the gloomy queen aura she exudes makes people dare not underestimate her.

Although his strength is inferior to that of his elder brother, the Ocean Demon God, when it comes to cunning and shrewdness, the Ocean Demon God can only admit defeat.

The Ocean Demon and the Ocean Demon are like family, both very arrogant. However, the Ocean Demon is far more cunning and shrewd than the Ocean Demon, and his temper is unpredictable.

But as the saying goes, in the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks seem rather ridiculous.

So when he heard that Gui Xiuli was about to launch a full-scale attack on him, the Ocean Demon God, who had been lazily leaning back in the main seat with his legs crossed, immediately stood up, put his hands on the conference table, and looked at the spies he had sent out kneeling in front of the conference table with disbelief.

“Absolutely true, Your Majesty! This information was personally obtained from the subordinates of the God of Asura!”

The scout pressed his forehead against the cold floor with trepidation and shouted in a firm and powerful voice.

Upon hearing this, Carrie belatedly realized that she had lost her composure. So she waved her hand to dismiss the scouts, frowned, and sat back on her throne to ponder deeply. Her expression was no longer as languid as before, but rather very solemn.

After the door to the reception room closed, the other demons, apart from the Ocean Demon God and the Osel couple, couldn't sit still and started discussing among themselves.

After some time of arguing, the meeting table gradually split into two factions, left and right.

On the left are the radicals who advocate the view that "offense is the best defense," and on the right are the conservatives who advocate the view that "advance step by step and hold the enemy back."

The Ocean Alliance currently has a total of seventeen demon gods.

Apart from the Alliance's second-in-command, the Ocean Demon God Kali, and the deputy, the Vortex Demon God Oser and Ba Che, the other fourteen demon gods have clearly stated their positions.

Currently, the radical faction has eight demon gods, and the conservative faction has six demon gods.

Seeing that the Ocean God was still frowning and deep in thought, Ausel and Ba Che discussed for a while, and then focused on analyzing the difference in combat strength between Gui Xiuli and the Ocean Alliance. Finally, they chose to side with the conservatives.

At this moment, eight people from the radical and eight from the conservative factions were on the same table, leaving only the Ocean Demon God in the main seat who had not yet expressed his opinion.

However, because Carrie had a very eccentric temper, the others remained silent and watched Carrie, who was still frowning and deep in thought in the main seat.

The scene fell silent, with only the sound of everyone breathing.

After a long silence, Carrie finally let out a heavy sigh and spoke with a sense of helplessness and heaviness:

"Order all family members to begin constructing a defensive line and minimize losses."

With these words, Carrie has made her stance clear, siding with the conservatives.

"God of the Ocean, why..."

A radical demon tried to persuade Kali, but was rebuked by her:

"Do you intend to confront Morax and Roltheus head-on?"

After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.

Finally, the radicals, with their sour faces, and the conservatives, with their heavy expressions, left the reception room one after the other, leaving only Carrie, who kept rubbing her temples, sitting in the main seat.

"Next, the world is about to change..."

Carrie turned her head wearily to look at the ocean outside the window, her right eyelid twitching incessantly.

Why do I always have this ominous feeling...?

Carrie pressed her wildly twitching eyelids and murmured.

Meanwhile, Guixiu left the eastern coastline.

After daybreak, having arranged for tens of thousands of workers to come and build the seawall, Morax, following the area planned with Gui Zhong, mobilized his vast rock elemental power to begin creating the rock ridge.

Several rocky ridges, each over ten meters high, rise abruptly from the beach, temporarily serving as the framework of the defensive line.

Seeing the project progressing rapidly, Morax turned to look at Tianheng Mountain and said meaningfully:

"My old friend's scheme is not as simple as it seems on the surface."
