"Tinder" is, in essence, a mass of highly concentrated elemental force.

Nahida prepares to mimic this elemental power with her own powers, which will drain a lot of her strength, and may even cause her body to return to the way it was when she was born.

It becomes a grass plant, or a twig.

These are the prices that can be paid to save the Grass Dragon.

I have to say, this god is too kind.

I'd rather sacrifice myself than let Sumeru suffer. The overthrow of the Grass Elemental Eruption.

"Is it worth it?"

Jiang Bai didn't know what to say, this kind of thing seemed to be impossible to persuade.

He pressed Nahida's shoulder, his face full of disapproval.

"There's nothing worth it, it's just something you should do. I am the god of grass in Sumeru, and I should have shouldered the responsibility of protecting Sumeru. ”

"No, absolutely not!"

Paimon flew up to Nashida, his hands twisted in front of him in a large fork.

They couldn't just watch their friends die, and for Nahida, it was just a new growth, but for them, losing their memories and emotions and becoming a plant was no different than dying.

This is not Nahida's battle alone, and for elemental beings, it is also the last chance to save their homeland.

They made sacrifices on their own initiative. Along the way, collect all the kindred, will be their own knowledge, language, emotion, memory... All turned into pure elemental power.

Ignoring her grief, Nahida worked together, and Apep's Oasis Heart began to recover.

The withered homeland came to life again, but no more voices were heard.

Paimon felt like crying.

I have been with me all the way, and now I am gone, just like a good friend has left.

"What's there to be sad about?" The majestic cascading voice came again, it was Apep's voice.

"The guardians who have accompanied me for countless hours have only turned into my elemental power, and they have a chance to be reborn."

"It's not the same ......"

Without the same memories and emotions, even the same soul is still born as a different individual.

"Hmph, I don't want to argue with you!" Paimon thinks this dragon is so annoying.

First they refused their help, and then they didn't fluctuate at the expense of these elemental creatures.

It's a very nasty guy!

"I'm glad you're recovering." Nahida spoke.

"I thought that when my strength was restored, my anger would swell, but what I feel now is a peace that I haven't felt in a long time."

"It's the forbidden knowledge that subtly changes you, amplifying your anger and hatred......"

Apep was silent for a moment, "Irrefutable. ”

"As much as I hate that extraterrestrial visitor, there is no point in destroying you and your people.

But even so, I don't plan to change my position and have anything to do with you. ”

Even if Nahida saved it, it was impossible to get him to approve of it.

The dragon has the pride of the dragon, and doing nothing is already the best result it can give.

For Nahida, now is undoubtedly the best ending.

After waking up, Apep did not plan to do anything to Sumeru, but continued to recuperate here, and Sumeru was also saved from a dangerous and fatal disaster.

"I respect your choice. There is one last thing I need to know before you retreat. How did you get entangled in "forbidden knowledge"?"

Although there was a guess, she still wanted to hear the answer from Apepe's own mouth.

"That's a long story, in the distant past, we all thought that it was the only force that could overcome the Heavenly Principles...... The dragon lord "Nibelungen" has gained the power of darkness from beyond the world and leads us against the order defined by outsiders.

An unprecedented war unfolded in Teyvat, and the battle was so fierce that the entire world was nearly destroyed.

The winner has the right to shape the world, and the loser can only be reduced to ashes .... But even after the death of the Dragon King, I didn't give up looking for a way to turn the situation around......"

Listening to Apep's story about the long past, Jiang Bai became more and more puzzled in his heart.

There are a lot of battles in Teyvat.

Teyvat was nearly destroyed during the battle between the First and Second Thrones, and the world nearly collapsed when the Dragon King Nibelungen fought again.

It's a miracle that Teyvat is okay right now.

And when exactly did this battle with the dragon king Nibelon begin?

Only one battle is recorded before the sun and the moon.

If the second throne comes back after the first throne beats the dragon king, then it's better to explain.

If it was the second throne that fought with the dragon king, would the dragon king not recognize that this was not the Phanes who drove them in the first place?

Or is the Nibelungen this second throne?

But isn't the Dragon King dead? If the First Throne wins, how can everything rest be explained?

Why did the First Throne erase the memories of those in the know, and even make what had happened taboo?

The fairies, the ones who lost their minds and became hilichurls......

There's no need to do all this.

Or was Phanes so weak after fighting the dragon king Nibelon that he could no longer control the creatures of the earth, and he did all this because he was terrified of the people on earth?

How is it that the more I know, the more I feel that I know too little?

Jiang Bai felt a headache.

There's a feeling that after a veil has been lifted, there's more veils behind it.

I thought that after reading the past events of the sun and the moon, he felt that he had almost mastered it.

But when Apep opened his mouth, the previous speculation seemed to be untenable all of a sudden.

Apep's narration continued, and Jiang Bai was not good at interjecting at this time.

"I was on the edge of a shattered world trying to gain more extra-world power, but I was stopped by a giant nail from the sky.

"Sumeru's world turned upside down, as if to say to me, the era of dragons is over......"

After that, it's not complicated.

Sumeru has been turned upside down, from what was once lush to a land of yellow sand.

But Apep has not forgotten its hatred.

At the time when the god of flowers brought forbidden knowledge to the Red King, it acquiesced in the expansion of the Red King's ambitions.

As a price, after the death of the Red King, all the knowledge he has will go into his hands.

When the kingdom of the Red King fell, it came as promised, swallowing the Red King in one gulp, absorbing his elemental power.

But what is obtained is not the result, but the end of the world.

It simply didn't have the energy to discern the knowledge that the Red King possessed, and it had exhausted all its strength just to resist this pain.

In the same way, in the eyes of the world, the scourge of forbidden knowledge was "miraculously" curbed until it broke out again 500 years ago.

Apepe is another backhand that the god of flowers did before his death in addition to the aura, and perhaps what happened today is also in her expectations.

The god of flowers, terrifying.
