Those who are more analytical and have sharp minds, such as Elhesen, Narcida, Shenzi, and Xinhai, have some of their own guesses.

Perhaps because the Kanriyans were so heavily corrupted by the Abyss, the "Curse of Undying" was created to prevent them from returning to the ley lines and corrupting the World Tree?

Non-pure bloodlines are not heavily contaminated, so they are not subject to the "curse of immortality."

It's uncertain; there haven't been many Kanriyans appearing so far, and there's still too little information available.

And this Kanriyan named 'Ed' is pureblood, while the Hilichurl lying on the bed is not pureblood, Ed introduced him:

"My child, my illegitimate son, Calibel."

People don't know how important 'Calibel' is; they just see him as an ordinary Kanrian who has become a Hilichurl.

What makes him unusual is probably his bloodline; Ed is a nobleman of Kanria, and Calibel has some noble blood.

However, given the already impressive performance of Kaeya, this didn't surprise anyone.

Kong was quite surprised, on the contrary, "Isn't this...my story?"

What's even more intriguing is the Hilichurl's name, 'Calibur'. Remember that's the name of this story? He's clearly one of the main characters, so why is he a Hilichurl?

The traveler was not surprised by her noble lineage; her own identity was even more extraordinary.

So she was even more curious about the child's mother. Even if they all turned into Hilichurls, there should still be two Hilichurls here.

Ed explained, "She's...no, she's lost contact with us, and I don't really want to think about it."

Ed glanced out the window as he said 'she', but the gesture went unnoticed.

After all, it's not easy for a mentally healthy person to think of burying their loved one in the field.

If this were just an ordinary literary work, it wouldn't be so bad, but the content of the prophecy book is all based on reality, so the thinking isn't very open-minded.

Now that Ed says the child's mother is missing, no one questions it.

More intriguing than 'Mother's' whereabouts is Ed's experiment; he is actually creating a drug that can awaken the consciousness of Hilichurls, intending to use it to bring back Calibel's consciousness.

Even Atractylodes macrocephala became interested in this miraculous medicine and wanted to observe and learn from it.

However, the 'curse' of becoming a Hilichurl is irreversible, as Dain mentioned in the Lava Pit.

Therefore, the effect of this drug is not to turn a Hilichurl back into a human, but to bring back the human consciousness of the other person.

The ingredients are all revealed in the story: the Sumeru Rose, the Calamity Lotus, and a kind of mushroom that looks a bit like the red 'Tree King's Sacred Body Mushroom'.

The first two are not uncommon in Sumeru, and Mushroom Ed has already prepared them.

With all the materials prepared, the task of making the medicine was left to the traveler. One point worth noting in the description of the medicine is that 'the smell of the medicine lingers for a long time'.

So that's why there was still a medicinal smell in the cabin. At this point, no one realized how long the smell had lasted.

In addition, to achieve the desired effect, a bit of the power of the god of wisdom is needed, which requires worshipping the idol.

Ed came before the statue and poured out his feelings and his final wishes.

He was willing to give up everything, willing to bow down to the gods, hoping only for the slightest miracle; he only hoped for:

"Let Calibel...see this world again."

"Please... God."

His words and his prayers were indeed very moving; the trembling in his voice conveyed his emotions.

Sensing his sorrow and despair, even the people of the Seven Gods couldn't help but feel a pang of pity for Kanria's plight.

The same goes for travelers; she is always more empathetic when it comes to matters concerning 'family'.

They empathized, but that doesn't mean the people of the Seven Kingdoms felt their gods were wrong; the things Kanria did caused them immense suffering as well.

If the gods hadn't gone to the front lines, it's hard to say what Teyvat would be like now. Their pity for the Kanriyans was merely empathy for being human, nothing more.

From both sides' perspectives, they are both victims, which makes the atmosphere of the movie somewhat heavy.

That said, worshipping idols was indeed a hellish thing for the Kanriyans, but it was nothing to do with the Sumerians.

The scholars of Sumeru were extremely interested and couldn't wait to try it out with the Hilichurls. It's just praying to the idol, right? They could do it as many times as they wanted!

However, they don't need to conduct experiments anymore; Ed has already fed the drug to Calibel, and the effects will be visible soon.

Ed asked cautiously, "Calibel? It's me, it's Dad...Calibel?"

His voice was pleading: "Calibel...please, answer me."

Kalibel showed no reaction, and it appeared that the medication was ineffective.

But Ed refused to believe the result, and he continued to plead to himself.

"Dad, I'm sorry, Calibel. Forgive me, please say something to me!"

"Please..."

Ed's hopes were dashed after two pleas, which were to no avail.

The scholars' curiosity was also dampened; they had thought that Canria's 'forbidden drug' really had some magical power, but it turned out it was ineffective.

Actually, this medicine might not be ineffective; the reason it's not working now is probably because the person is currently imprisoned.

If she had a Void Terminal, she could sense something, but Ed wouldn't be able to, and even if she could, there would be nothing she could do.

The Sumeru scholars merely lost their curiosity, but Edna in the story was truly desperate.

[Ed cried out in despair, "The gods of this world have never, even for a moment, stood on the side of humanity..."]

Clearly, he attributed the ineffectiveness of the medicine to divine intervention.

Several deities were sitting in the movie theater watching a film when they all heard these words.

"Did they not stand on the side of humanity?" The gods did not wish to answer this question; they would leave the answer to their own people, the children of humanity.

Wendy overthrew tyranny and defeated the dragon. The Great Melody of a Thousand Years brought favorable weather to Mondstadt, freeing it from the suffering of ice and snow.

Zhongli protected Liyue for thousands of years, conquering all sides, and finally returned power to others.

Even in terrible movies, the protagonist kills countless powerful enemies, and even...friends and family, for the sake of his people.

Nasita and the Great Tree King were exemplary in their sacrifice, both willing to give up their own lives to protect their people.

Funina's story has not yet been made public, but her dedication is no less than that of the previous ones.

The deeds of the gods make it impossible for people to hate them. Even though the Thunder God brought suffering to his people for a time, the Inatsume people still revered her.

The answer is self-evident: for the people of the seven kingdoms, their gods have always been on the side of humanity.

Chapter 847 Apostle of Fate

The traveler didn't want to refute Ed. Although she had friends among the Seven Gods, it was also a god who had stopped them in the first place.

Since Ed didn't name anyone, she didn't bother to care.

The traveler in the story advised Ed not to get agitated, suggesting there might be other reasons. Perhaps they should try again?

Anyway, he could still get the raw materials for the medicine, and he grew the most important 'alien mushroom' in the field in his backyard.

However, you need to wait for a specific time to get the mushrooms, which is 2 PM.

In an instant, Al-Hysen remembered the name of that drink: Death in the Afternoon.

Is it hinting at something? Lacking a definitive connection, Ehrlich didn't draw a conclusion.

However, Orelen was almost certain that there was something wrong with that field. It didn't look like a field for growing mushrooms; there must be some hidden factor involved.

Natassie Tray, seeing through Orloren's thoughts, asked, "Have you discovered something? Tell Grandma."

Sitella was in high spirits. She usually had no one to share her light novels with, but now that she was watching a movie, she could finally have a good chat with the audience. The movie theater was packed with people.

Of course, Orloren didn't hide anything from Sitrali and shared his 'professional knowledge' with her.

Sitella's expression changed immediately; her smile vanished, replaced by a serious one.

She recalled Ed's casual glance out the window when he mentioned the child's mother.

"I see... then the reason this medicine is 'contraindicated' is probably..."

It's probably—a close relative!

Orlan tilted his head slightly and asked, "What are you afraid of?"

"Don't ask questions, little one." Citrali didn't answer. As a high shaman, she did know about some taboos, both true and false, so she could make the connection.

But she didn't tell Orloren. One reason was the consideration of 'spoiling' the plot, and the other was her desire not to let the 'children' know about such dark things.

Euron didn't dare to ask any further questions and remained silent as he continued watching.

In the scene, Ed is watering the field, and then a group of monsters appear when he goes to get fertilizer. It seems that this field is also very attractive to monsters.

Unfortunately, the traveler is still stationed here, so these mere monsters are no match for him.

Ed returned shortly afterward, bringing back fertilizer. This fertilizer contained elemental energy and had an excellent catalytic effect.

There are so many amazing things about this series of operations, and everyone is curious about both the fertilizer and the land.

The traveler was also curious, but Ed was unwilling to talk about it, and there was nothing she could do about it.

The traveler began concocting medicine with the mushrooms that had grown in an instant, while Ed remained lost in thought until the traveler finished. He then snapped out of his daze and said:

"I've been so tired these past few years. I just want to lie down in the fields and sleep forever..."

He wanted to sleep forever in this field, but he couldn't, because he was still bound by the "curse of immortality."

His lament was filled with helplessness; a person couldn't even die.

But the G7 people, who were not satisfied with his previous 'insolent' remarks, wanted to say: Who asked you?

The traveler didn't ask you if you were tired or what you wanted to do in the future, so why are you suddenly feeling sad?

The traveler had no animosity towards him, so he comforted him normally, reminding him that Calibel was still there.

Ed nodded: "Heh, yeah, yeah, so it's just a thought. Thanks for making the medicine. According to procedure... let's go to the Statue of the Seven."

The final step in completing the medicine was to pray to the idol, which was already a punishment for Ed.

But this time, something unexpected happened. They saw a Hilichurl near the Statue of the Seven.

Ed, seeing this, said, "Wait... Hey, what was that over there just now...? Was that Calibel?"

The traveler, who hadn't seen clearly, became nervous upon hearing Ed's words. Could it be that the medicine was only now taking effect? ​​The two hurriedly gave chase.

In the movie, they were chasing Hilichurls, but in reality, Xin Hai felt a bit out of place.

When the traveler went to fetch water while the farmer was farming, didn't Ed go to see Calibel and know that Calibel hadn't woken up yet?

And how could he be so concerned about Calibel that he could be mistaken?

There are many doubts, but we can't draw any conclusions now. What if he really just misjudged things because he was too concerned?

After a brief moment of contemplation, the traveler in the story had already reached the entrance of a cave. She saw the Hilichurl, but it wasn't Calibel; it wasn't wearing a scarf.

That was a silk scarf Ed gave to Calibel's mother, now tied around Calibel's arm—a very obvious mark.

Ed sighed, "I'm afraid my eyes won't hold up much longer. I won't even recognize my own son anymore. This body... sigh."

While the "curse of immortality" grants immortality, it does not stop the wear and tear on the body; the body's functions will only deteriorate.

Perhaps he really just misread it because his health was deteriorating, and there was no other reason.

Regardless, now that they'd caught up, Ed had become interested in this Hilichurl.

Why is he just walking straight ahead, ignoring everyone behind him? What is it that attracts Hilichurls so much?

Ed wanted to know everything about the Hilichurls, and this was for Calibel's sake, so he set off with the Traveler to find out.

The scene inside the cave was quite eerie, and the Hilichurls walking and kneeling in front of it was a bizarre and eerie scene that gave the audience goosebumps.

Kavi's focus was somewhat unique. As he observed the architecture, he muttered to himself, "I feel that... it has some similarities to the architectural style of the Abyss Palace and the Layered Rock Abyss."

Kavi's mutterings were overheard by Elhesen. "Really? I see."

Based on the direction the Hilichurls had been heading, Elhesen realized that this was most likely the path to the Laminariat.

So that's how it is. It's been a narrative trick from the moment the traveler woke up. How cunning, Lin Qiu.

"Hey? What do you know? Tell me!" Kavi urged.
