Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

"."

"Okay, although I didn't originally want to use these methods in this battle."

"——But if you don't show some real skills, it seems difficult to stop you, old friend."

shook his head,

Zhongli, who had been floating at about the height of Ruotu's head and engaging in close combat with the opponent,

After driving back the enemy in front of him with one shot,

He also activated for the first time the power of the rock element, which had been almost unused in previous battles except for defense.

Because I showed my true ability to the people in front of me,

Ruotuo, who was obviously excited, said:

".It seems that the previous battle did not satisfy you."

"——In that case, then take this blow, Ruotu."

"."

Didn't wait for the other party's response.

Zhongli chuckled and threw the rock spear in his hand high up.

In this situation where I don't have to worry about external influences, I feel a rare sense of relief that I can give my all.

——Although his close combat skills are not low, if we were to say which of the other demons left the most profound impression on Morax,

Actually it should be his long-range attack!

"——You should be most familiar with the name of this move. Be careful, old friend."

"Om-"

The words fell,

Between heaven and earth, the sound of rock-attributed elements came from all directions.

Countless rock elements rushed up into the sky like a raging river, carrying the rubble on the ground.

Countless rock spears as big as mountains quickly condensed in the sky.

In the end, it fell like a meteorite, with incomparable momentum and high speed.

"."

".Heaven moves everything"

".Mountains and seas take shape"

Looking at the scene in front of him that clearly did not exist in his memory, Ruo Tuo's mind unconsciously emerged with the following words:

It just stopped right there.

"Boom——"

next moment,

I felt the countless people around me falling like stars because I stopped moving.

In other places, it transforms into pure rock elemental power, releasing a dazzling rock spear.

It finally remembered the second half of the sentence and read it out loud unconsciously:

"Stars appear in the wasteland, shining like the sun"

"."

"——Stars appear in the wasteland, shining like the blazing sun!"

"Hahahaha, hahahaha, so that's what's going on!!!"

Finally, the most suitable time has come.

Lin Feng on the side immediately released those memories that had long been integrated into Ruota's consciousness but had been suppressed by anger and obsession.

The extremely dazzling grass elemental light immediately transformed from its original state of dots to quickly merge into Ruotu's entire body.

The Rock Dragon, which originally could not control the grass element, was quickly covered with vines with flowers and trees with fruits.

For a moment, Ruota seemed more like the giant mountain turtle carrying an oasis on its back in the legend of Xumi than the rock elemental dragon.

"."

Seeing his old friend like this, Zhongli, who had just urgently adjusted the attack point, sighed a little tiredly.

He took off his white robe and the rock spear in his hand,

With great relief, he came to the Ruotu, who was already covered with various plants.

Quietly looking at my old friend who was standing there in a daze because he was suddenly overwhelmed by a large amount of memories.

After a while,

The turbid red light in the eyes of the Ruotu Dragon King gradually faded away, returning to the clear appearance when Zhongli carved it out in the past.

——That was the same majestic and bright golden-red vertical pupil that he gave to the Rādhāraṇa Dragon King by looking at his own eyes.

"."

"."

Finally, he remembered everything, but suddenly he didn't know what to say.

Looking at the old friend in front of him who has not changed much from thousands of years ago,

For a moment, he looked at Zhongli in front of him with his hands resting in front of his head in silence.

"."

"——Welcome back, old friend."

Zhongli spoke first.

"..."

"--Well, I'm back, Morax."

The huge rock dragon paused for a moment.

In the end, he responded simply but firmly, just like he did thousands of years ago.

Chapter 259: Doctor: Liyue is too dangerous, retreat

".You said your name is Zhongli now, is that right?"

"Exactly."

"No, I'm still used to calling you Morax."

"up to you."

"."

In front of the ruins of Hulao Mountain,

Ruota, who still maintains the form of a dragon for the time being, is reminiscing about the past with Zhongli, who is obviously in a good mood.

It's rare to see an old man in this state.

Knowing that in this reunion after a thousand years, both sides must have many feelings,

Lin Feng simply didn't go over to interrupt them at this time.

Instead, he chose to study with the three immortals beside him the extent of the damage caused by the battle.

And the most important post-processing should be carried out.

Liyue Harbor, within the immortal power barrier reinforced by Lin Feng.

The numerous and neatly arrayed Qianyan troops, due to previous orders, retreated behind the defense line.

But among these armored and armed Qianyan soldiers,

Many members of the Adventurer's Guild wearing green uniforms,

As a collaborator, we also took on some of the work of treating the wounded and transporting supplies.

Although the tremors in the distance finally stopped,

No more forces beyond the ability of mortals to deal with will intervene on the battlefield.

However, the projected monsters derived from the earth veins formed a cluster due to the isolation of the previous barrier.

Wandering aimlessly in the wilderness outside the barrier.

At the commander's discretion,

Although the monsters' desire to attack seems to have decreased a lot, now they are just acting on instinct.

But if the barrier is suddenly lifted, it will still be a considerable threat.

Therefore, these Thousand Rocks Army and adventurers did not let down their guard.

Instead, they began to plan the subsequent cleanup and finishing work.

But among the many black-haired and black-eyed Liyue people,

A blonde girl in a white dress and the white-haired kid beside her received the most praise from everyone.

——As a co-researcher of Xumi,

Not only did they, like the Adventurer's Association, voluntarily choose to accept the special support mission issued by the General Affairs Department,

And he is very skilled,

In the previous battle, they had quickly and efficiently repelled many monsters that attacked from the flanks of the army, relieving a lot of pressure on the Qianyan Army.

But at this moment,

This girl received admiring glances from many of the Qianyan Army's soldiers.

But he was not proud of his fighting ability being stronger than that of ordinary people.

On the contrary, she and Paimon beside her still felt a lot of fear after recalling the scene just now.

".Ying. Tell me, if that mountain-sized spear came down, could the two of us have caught it?"

".We probably haven't said anything bad about the god Emperor Yan before, right?"

Compared to the Qianyan Army who only felt excited when seeing such a scene,

The blonde girl next to Paimon felt differently:

When she thought about having to deal with such a god in order to find her brother, her sense of crisis was instantly maxed out.

——It is true that my agility and ability to withstand damage are much stronger than that of ordinary people.

But if it was this kind of attack, like smashing down countless mountains,

She didn't think she could dodge it, nor did she think she could take it head on.

".Don't worry, Paimon, I don't think we have ever done anything like that."

After comforting the companions around me,

After a slight pause,

She looked at the spiral-shaped emerald green pendant hanging around her neck and felt a little relieved:

".If this pendant also contains such power,

Then the value of our reward this time may be far beyond our initial expectations."

——This pendant was the only reward she and Paimon received in the previous mission, apart from the authority.

That crystal of divine power is said to be able to resist god-level attacks in a passive state and can also be actively activated.

"Hey, don't use Ying carelessly!"

"——If it really triggers something that shouldn't be used, we may have to work for the rest of our lives to pay for it."

The thought of being thrown into prison and never having delicious food again because of damaging so many buildings and facilities made me feel very uncomfortable.
