Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

Unlike the sunny and green scenery inside the huge wall,

Just across a wall, all you can see is an endless sea of ​​sand and dry scorching wind.

At this moment, yellow sand that covered the sky rose from the earth, dyeing the sky a strange red.

But even in this extremely bad weather, there is still a long team under the protection of green light, moving forward firmly in the wind and sand.

——These were the last group of tribal indigenous people who received the evacuation order.

Ever since Lin Feng adjusted the sand barrier,

Because of the expansion of the rainforest, and the various benefits that can be obtained by settling in Aru Village and registering as a resident,

In fact, there are only a few scattered tribes in the desert that follow a primitive lifestyle.

This time, in order to prevent the Grass Dragon from accidentally wiping them out after the negotiation failed, the House of the Order also completed the evacuation of these scattered tribal residents in recent times.

Because of the message that the Grass Dragon followers had given to Apep,

Xumi's desire to meet the Grass Dragon and negotiate was clearly conveyed to the ancient Dragon King from the very beginning.

——But the fact that the goal of the operation was not concealed does not mean that the participants also revealed it to the other party honestly.

Apep's attitude of avoiding Lin Feng was clearly shown a long time ago.

Even the cooperation information that was previously conveyed to the other party through those relatives has not received any response so far.

——We anticipated this situation in advance, and in order to avoid the worst-case scenario where the Grass Dragon escapes to another country and we have to spend a lot of effort to find it,

Lin Feng was the communicator he initially arranged.

They are the two elemental creatures in Xumi who lost part of their memory after Lin Feng treated the abyss erosion because they had no help from the power of the Sky Nail and were unable to recognize the identities of Wendy and Zhongli.

In order to avoid the possibility of an internal spy, the brown mushroom in the abyss of rocks is still staying safely in the Emperor's cave.

——This action to gain control of the grass element is too important. Whether it is for Lin Feng himself or the old man who is waiting to pull Ruo Tuo out, the result of failure is unacceptable.

——To put it bluntly,

That is, no one can stop Nashida from fulfilling her promise to heal the Grass Dragon, not even Apep himself.

Now that the most ideal situation where both parties hit it off has been confirmed to have failed,

Lin Feng was already prepared to pin Apep to the ground and force it to survive decently.

——If it weren't for the fact that killing the opponent might cause pollution far beyond the death of the demon god,

Maybe both the old man and he began to seriously consider whether they could extract the required power directly from the ancient dragon's body.

Now that all preparations have been made, our strength is sufficient.

This team of indigenous people who have completed the evacuation in the wind and sand has undoubtedly become a symbol of the official start of this operation.

When all the tribesmen under the protection of the emerald shield left the desert area,

In the huge cavity under the endless yellow sand, a winding creature exuding an ancient and mysterious aura suddenly opened its huge golden-green vertical pupils.

Its shape resembles a dragon or a snake, and its lines reveal a natural and harmonious beauty.

Just the part of the body that was displayed was so huge that one could not see the end at a glance.

As if as an external symbol of its status as the master of plants, countless horn-like things like plant roots are spread all over its body.

Amidst the layers of sandy yellow scales, a hint of emerald green can be vaguely seen.

And this color of life, which is incompatible with its current posture, is the only last echo of its past glory.

——This is naturally the "Green Grass Dragon" Apep that Lin Feng has been thinking about for a long time.

At this moment, after vaguely sensing the so-called "cooperation" message from his family,

From its dragon-like and snake-like face, one could actually see a hint of visible sarcasm.

".Hey, here we go again."

"——You despicable gods, do you still think that I will be easily deceived by you like Amon did that time?"

Just because of a slight breath of taunting, a strong storm was triggered in this underground space.

Apep felt the terrifying abyss infecting his body.

It was suffering from intense pain all the time, and became even more resentful towards the gods who had plotted against it.

Ever since it swallowed the body of the Red King as agreed thousands of years ago, this unimaginable amount of forbidden knowledge has been tightly entangled with it.

I totally underestimated the madness of the Red Earth King.

Originally following the footsteps of the "King of Dragons", it was expected to gain double benefits in elemental power and power of the abyss, but the unexpectedly huge amount of forbidden knowledge directly broke the balance in its body.

Not only did he fail to achieve his original expectations, but in the process of resisting the pain, he was even unable to absorb elemental power and analyze the knowledge of the Red King.

Even though the Great Compassion Tree King had promised to cure the forbidden knowledge infection in it hundreds of years ago,

But now it no longer trusts these creatures favored by nature.

——Not to mention the existence of that complete "outlier".

Recalling the scene at that time when the powers of many elements gathered together, and even mixed with some power of the abyss,

Apep even vaguely caught a glimpse of the past battles between the "Dragon King" and "Heavenly Law".

As the first living creatures on the continent of Teyvat, it did not believe that such a powerful alien creature would come with good intentions.

It’s a pity that my current life form has become most suitable for the desert after a long period of adaptation, and only in the desert can I achieve perfect camouflage.

If the sudden change of environment would not require some time to readapt and expose flaws, perhaps running to other countries would be the most appropriate option.

After receiving the message from his family, he knew that the other party was determined to find him.

Although it is not completely unmoved by such trading conditions,

But when he looked at the followers in his body that had lost their wisdom and become extremely twisted due to the erosion of the abyss.

It swore that it would never trust the gods again, and quietly lowered its head.

He decided that unless the non-threatening successor of the Great Compassionate Tree King came to see him alone,

Otherwise, once it senses any danger, it will immediately use its perfect fit with the desert area to move directly and quietly.

And when a certain Grass Dragon became alert and decided to escape at the first sign of trouble.

The four gods who came for this purpose finally arrived in the desert.

But now the situation where multiple gods appeared at the same time was somewhat different from what Nashida had imagined.

"."

"."

In an unspeakable silence,

Nashida looked at the three jumping mushrooms beside her, and for a moment she felt that she was the one who was the odd one out.

"Let's talk."

".Do you really want to act with me in such a disguise?

Why did the two seniors agree to your fantastic plan?"

He looked back again and sensed the power fluctuations of the three mushrooms behind him.

Although I think it's strange to disguise the other gods who came here to help as mushrooms,

But Nashida didn't notice anything unusual.

I have to admit that this wise man of ours is truly a genius.

"Haha, you don't have to worry about it."

"——Not to mention that the knowledge you two shared earlier is extremely valuable,

Just being able to observe the world from such a unique perspective is a precious experience.”

A rock-attributed mushroom beast with a brown body and a flowering mushroom hat on its head.

After stretching his body on the spot, he used the void system between the four of them to convey his thoughts directly.

——Being able to use the Void System and saying such things, this brown mushroom is definitely not a follower of the Grass Dragon.

But out of caution, it was Zhongli who was disguised by Lin Feng as that kind of elemental life.

"Hehe, the grass-attributed elemental power can actually do this kind of thing. It's really enviable."

"——If I could have disguised myself so perfectly, I wouldn't have been caught by the old man when I was borrowing wine before."

The floating wind mushroom beast with a green and white umbrella on its head did not look uncomfortable at all. Instead, it floated around in the air very freely, looking very playful.

This is naturally Wendy in disguise.

".To be honest, I didn't expect it to be so smooth at first."

"——I can only say that Wendy and the old man have a very deep understanding of physical changes.

So with the assistance of you and me providing the grass elemental power, we were able to complete this disguise so easily."

A floating mushroom monster that looked like a floating bubble expressed its thoughts in the internal chat channel after Zhongli and Venti spoke.

This was undoubtedly Lin Feng who had also disguised himself.

Recalling the situation in the plot where Nashida's elemental power was almost exhausted, Lin Feng looked at Zhongli and Wendy beside him and asked in the void:

"Wendy, old man, how is your elemental power consumption? How long can you last without affecting your strength?"

"Don't worry, the transformation itself was accomplished with the help of my friend, and it did not consume the strength of the two of us.

If it is just to maintain this form, a small amount of elemental expenditure is completely acceptable."

Zhongli, who had survived for a long time and whose elemental accumulation was countless times stronger than Nashida, simply replied in the void.

Wendy, who was crying weakly every day, obviously agreed with the old man's answer and did not think that simply maintaining the disguise would cause such a burden.

"."

I looked at the three mushrooms around me.

Nashida recalled the rapid consumption of elemental power during her previous transformation, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

While the Little Grass God was silent, Lin Feng felt the perfect camouflage effect of the three of them, and couldn't help but sigh:

"By the way, isn't our disguise a little too good?"

"——I never thought that a god disguised as a mushroom beast could be able to perfectly reproduce the situation of the grass dragon's followers."

".Haha, there is no need to be surprised, my friend."

"You should also know that life created by elements is very different from ordinary creatures.

Those that settle will turn into slimes, those that rise will form crystal butterflies, and in extremely rare cases, even dragon-like creatures will appear at the top. "

Zhongli responded in the void.

After the other two mushrooms and Nashida looked over,

He was also very amazed at Lin Feng's wonderful idea, and continued to explain:

"Because of the huge difference in life forms, when the followers of the Grass Dragon disguised themselves as mushroom beasts,

Even if the appearance is very similar, there are still many characteristics of elemental life left, so it can only be detected after close contact."

"——But what you want us to disguise as are not ordinary mushroom beasts from the beginning, but elemental life disguised as mushroom beasts."

After a brief pause, he thought the plan was more and more ingenious, and continued:

"As the pinnacle of elemental authority, the life forms of demons like us are not much different from those followers of the grass dragons."

"Although for a grass dragon that is proficient in life forms, it will definitely be able to see through us in an instant that we are not mushroom beasts, but elemental life."

"But with the aura extracted from those followers before, we have been exposed once, so there is a good chance that we can confuse the public."

No matter what kind of existence it is, after exposing the other party's disguise, it is always easy to subconsciously think that you have discovered the truth.

——But what is under the mask may not be the truth, but may be another layer of mask.

After imitating the elemental power characteristics of those followers, even Zhongli himself could not see through Lin Feng and Wendy's disguise.

Recalling the two mushrooms that my friend had called back to Xumi before setting off and then stuffed into the cave,

Even though he was known for his cautious style of doing things, he couldn't find any fault with the details.
