Chapter 120: Dainsleif and the Abyss

(Today's update of the plot chapter, the plot of the second act of the Traveler chapter, slight changes, friends who are familiar with the plot subscribe cautiously)

The sudden sound startled Ying and Paimon, who quickly alerted Paimon, and Paimon turned around to find that it was a familiar person who made the sound.

"Ah, it's Dain!"

Paimon's voice made Ying put down the bladeless sword she had just taken out, and a smile appeared on her little face, she happened to be full of questions in her heart, and Dainsleif, was the best answerer.

"Look at your expressions, it looks like you've experienced something weird!"

Dainsleif is no different from the last time they were separated, still dressed in that mysterious outfit.

"Could it be that in that ruin, did you meet the Abyss Apostle?"

Without waiting for Ying to speak, Dainsleif directly guessed what happened to Ying and Paimon.

Paimon's eyes widened, and his little hands scratched his head, as if shocked that Dainsleif could guess the correct answer.

"Hey, how would Dain know?"

In response to Paimon's question, Dainsleif waved his hand and replied, "I continued to hunt down the Abyss Apostles, and I didn't expect to meet you here, and you are full of the aura of the Abyss Apostles. ”

After a pause, Dainsleif continued: "If you don't cooperate with the Abyss Apostle, then this level of aura can only fight with the Abyss Apostle!" ”

"Actually, we have experienced more than just the Abyss Apostle!"

With some inexplicable meaning in his eyes, he slowly told Dainsleib about the reversed gods, the dead, and the strange scenes he saw in the depths of the ruins.

After listening to Ying's narration, Dainsleif was also a little puzzled, although he had been chasing the abyss, he also knew nothing about the various techniques mastered by the abyss.

"The upside-down idol... Abyssal energy in your hands? No, I haven't seen anything like it in the confrontation with the Abyss. ”

Dainsleif shook his head, saying that he had never seen such a scene, but he soon seemed to remember something, and said to Ying: "Let's finish your experience first, what happened to you after you escaped from the bottom of the abyssal energy-filled ruins?" ”

"Then we were close to the exit of the ruins when we were intercepted by the abyss apostle who suddenly appeared."

Paimon replied, floating in the air, as if remembering the battle just now, Little Feet stomped in the air continuously, expressing some dissatisfaction with the Abyss Apostle, "We fought that guy a bit, maybe it hasn't gone far yet!" ”

Dainsleif nodded, looking at the two of them, "Well, Paimon is right, I also sensed the aura of the Abyss Apostle, so I chased here, the opportunity is rare, follow me to catch up!" ”

"Okay."

Faced with Dainsleif's invitation, Ying didn't think much about it, and nodded directly in agreement, she still had doubts in her heart, the Abyss Apostle just now seemed to know her, which made her have a bad premonition.

"Let's go! This is a rare opportunity, and with Dain's help this time, maybe you can solve a lot of puzzles this time! ”

Paimon agrees to pursue her, or rather, she sees the growing doubts in Ying's heart.

As a result, Ying and Paimon follow Dainsleif and begin to pursue the Abyss Apostle through the Abyssal Apostle.

·········

On the other side, Wang Daoyi returned to Wanmin Hall, and it was already dinner time, and there were more and more guests in Wan Min Hall.

Obviously a young couple in love, but they don't seem to have much time together, every time they come over, Xiangling is either greeting guests or busy in front of the stove.

Shaking his head, the lover he chooses, then he should support each other's dreams, and the flickering vision of the god of fire represents that this girl is destined to fight for her dreams.

didn't go to the kitchen to disturb Xiangling, Wang Daoyi skillfully picked up the rag and cleaned up the guest table, that is, he was conscious, and he definitely didn't see Master Mao coming.

"Daoyi, don't be busy, help me send this food box to Chunxiang Kiln, this is the dish ordered by Miss Ying'er!"

Master Mao greeted the 'busy' Wang Daoyi and handed him a small food box.

Wanmintang does not have a takeaway service, but for some old customers, it is possible to order food in advance and have it delivered to order.

"Okay, leave it to me!"

After taking the food box, Wang Daoyi didn't say anything, and went out to walk towards the Chunxiang kiln.

Like Wang Daoyi's tearoom, the Chunxiang Kiln is also close to Liyue Wharf, so Wang Daoyi and that Miss Ying'er have known each other for a long time.

When she came to Chunxiang Kiln, before she could speak, Ying'er saw Wang Daoyi, with a provocative smile on her face, Miss Ying'er greeted: "Yo, this is not Brother Wang, come to Chunxiang Kiln to have a look, you will remember it for a lifetime~"

"I'm here to deliver the food box!" Wang Daoyi stiffened his face, raised the food box in his hand, and signaled that he was coming over to deliver something.

Ying'er covered her mouth and chuckled: "Hey Yoyo, why do you have such an expression, you are shy!"

"I didn't!"

"Then come in and have a look, although imagine that the slender part is like a willow, and the plump part is round and jade..."

"Although the beauty is incomprehensible, it contains a passion like fire······"

Ying'er's voice is full of charm, which makes people can't help but think about it.

"Miss Ying'er, I'm losing, let's go back and send a few porcelain bowls to the tea room!" With a slightly wry smile on his face, Wang Dao arched his hand to Ying'er, indicating that he had admitted defeat.

hurriedly handed over the food box to the graceful Miss Ying'er, and fled in the midst of her grinning teasing, Wang Daoyi looked very embarrassed.

When I returned to Wanmin Hall, I was busy for a while, and when the sky was dark and the moon was on the branches, I finally sent off the last table of guests.

Wang Daoyi finally had time to sit down and eat.

Master Mao is in the main seat, Wang Daoyi and Xiangling sit on the left and right, and next to Xiangling is the pot.

"Daoyi hasn't been here for a long time, what have you been busy with lately?"

While eating, Master Mao asked seemingly casually.

This stinky boy deceived his good daughter, but suddenly he couldn't come for several days, so that Xiangling was sometimes absent-minded, and Master Mao was angry when he saw it.

Wang Daoyi also knew that he hadn't greeted Xiangling in the past few days when he went to the underground factory, and it was estimated that the little girl was worried, and he was careless and forgot to tell his little girlfriend.

"Uncle, I've been out of the door for a few days, and I haven't had time to tell Xiangling, I won't be next time!"

Master Mao nodded: "I don't want to get involved in the affairs of you young people, but you kid have to pay attention next time, Xiangling is always absent-minded these days, it's your kid who provokes ······"

"Oops, Daddy!" Xiangling snorted and looked at Wang Daoyi with some embarrassment.

She's not the kind of clingy little girl, and she won't be the kind of clingy little girl, but the absent-mindedness these days is really because the teenager hasn't appeared for a long time, which makes her miss it a little.

"Don't worry, uncle!" Wang Daoyi nodded to Master Mao seriously, then looked at Xiangling and met her delicate gaze, "Xiangling and I will be fine!" ”

Xiangling looked at the young man's clear gaze, and was a little stupid for a while.

·····

"Ahem!"

"Lung~"

Two dissatisfied voices interrupted Wang Daoyi and Xiangling's gaze.

Master Mao was a little dissatisfied with his daughter's soul being lost by Wang Daoyi.

Guoba was dissatisfied that Xiangling suddenly stopped picking up vegetables for herself.

It's night,

After a full meal, he and Xiangling were kicked out of Wanmin Hall by Master Mao, and before leaving, Wang Daoyi told Xiangling that he might have to go out to find Ying next, and that he would not be in Liyue Harbor for a while, so Xiangling should not worry.

Alone at the foot of Tianheng Mountain, he summoned the wind eagle, and the cyan giant eagle carried the wind to Wang Daoyi's side.

Boarding the back of the Wind Eagle, Wang Daoyi sat firmly, and then patted the Wind Eagle on the back, indicating that it was ready to take off.

Wind Eagle turned his head and gave Wang Daoyi a puzzled look.

"Master, you haven't said where to go?"

Wang Daoyi clearly read its doubts from Feng Ying's eyes.

Thinking of the plan to train the wind eagle that Abatuyi said, Wang Daoyi did not directly say the destination, but took out the map given by Sister Lan and pointed to the ruins on the map.

Wind Eagle's eyes were full of doubts, he was still a child, he was only a few months old, and he couldn't read the map of the Adventurers' Guild.

Wang Daoyi was helpless, but he was not prepared to let Fengying look at the map and fly.

"Make a note of the pattern on the map, take off, and I'll show you the direction!"

Although he didn't know what Wang Daoyi meant, Wind Eagle obediently wrote down the patterns on the map, it was a high-level elemental creature with a very good memory.

With a flap of his wings, he burst into the sky.

Under the reminder of Wang Daoyi from time to time, the wind eagle flew towards the destination, the ruins of the water island near the end of the blue water plain at the foot of the Okuzo Mountain.

This time, the target was farther away, almost to the other side of the land of Liyue, and since Wind Eagle didn't know the way, Wang Dao adjusted his direction from time to time.

Even though the Wind Eagle was extremely fast, it flew for almost a day before reaching its destination.

Landing at the entrance of the ruins, Wang Daoyi took out the map again and showed it to the Wind Eagle.

"Goo~" Wind Eagle made a cooing sound in his throat, with some agility in his eyes, after some flight, comparing the scenery on the road, plus the road sign reminded when Wang Dao pointed the way, Wind Eagle seemed to understand this map.

I have to say that the Wind Eagle is a real high-level elemental creature, its intelligence level is very high, and it can understand most of the common sense just by simply teaching.

Patting Wind Eagle's head, already showing encouragement, Wang Daoyi opened his elemental vision and looked at the entrance of the ruins.

"The traces of blue and yellow are Yingbar, and there is a trace of dark blue, it should be Dainsleif!"

Wang Daoyi looked at the two traces of energy residing in front of the ruins, and looked in the direction of Minlin, "Are you going over there?" ”

determined the direction, Wang Daoyi did not mean to enter the ruins to explore, there was a smell of abyss in the ruins, and if he rushed in, he might encounter something strange.

"Wind Eagle, go, go and fly in the direction of Minlin."

Observing the elemental traces left by Ying and Dainsleif, Wang Daoyi sat on Wind Eagle and began to pursue.

········

On the other side, Ying and Paimon follow Dainsleif in pursuit of the Abyssal Aura, constantly searching for the trail of the Abyss Apostle.

After a day of pursuit, I finally caught up with the shadow of the abyss in one of the ground ruins of Minlin.

A few abyssal mages are guarding a ruin, looking for something.

Ying drew his sword and went up, and solved these abyssal mages with three strikes and five divided by two.

"Your strength seems to be stronger than when we first met!" Dainsleif looked at the Ying Solve Abyss Mage and seemed to sigh a little.

Putting away the bladeless sword, Ying nodded, her strength was indeed recovering rapidly.

"Are these abyss mages preparing to ambush us?"

I don't know what Paimon thinks, so I ask a question.

Dainsleif stepped forward, observed where the Abyss Mage had just stayed, and shook his head, "No, they're just rummaging through the remains of those ruin guards, rummaging for something!" ”

"Hey, is that so?" Paimon scratched his head and looked at Ying, "We seem to do this a lot!" ”

"What [Chaos Device], [Chaos Circuit] or whatever."

Ying nodded: "Yes, they are all very important materials, you can go to the Adventurers' Association to exchange Mora!" ”

Hearing Ying and Paimon's words, Dainsleif smiled faintly, "No, it won't be that ordinary. ”

"The reason why I'm investigating nearby is because from that ruin, from time to time, an Abyss Mage will go out to explore, and it seems that he wants to find a [specific precious thing] from the remains of the ruin guards to bring back."

Dainsleif carefully examined the remains of the ruinguards, "However, looking at their disappointed appearances, at least not found yet..."

"Ah, then we should have left an abyss mage just now, let's ask!" Paimon Jr. exclaimed, a little regret in his tone.

Ying also nodded, "In Mondstadt, I tortured the Abyss Mage with Lord Diluc, and I have experience. ”

"Haha, if the torture was useful, I would have stopped you from killing you just now." Dainsleif smiled, "It's just that I have a feeling in my dark that this matter is very important to the Abyss Order, and its truth cannot be obtained by torture." ”

"In other words, these abyss mages are already facing a deeper fear than any torture!"

"Fear..." Ying frowned, thinking of the reverse idol in the ruins.

"Huh... What's the deal with this feeling of hair standing on end? Paimon seemed to sense something, and flew up behind Ying uncomfortably, holding on to Ying's clothes.

"Okay, don't delay here for too long, let's keep chasing!" Dainsleif looked at Paimon Jr. and turned to chase farther away.

Ying and Paimon can only keep up.

Dainsleif seems to have a special skill in chasing the breath of the abyss, and he keeps running in the wild mountain stream with Ying, fortunately, Ying's skills are good, and Paimon can fly, otherwise the two of them would not be able to keep up with Dainsleif for a while.

Soon, the three of them were chased to a new ground ruin, this time, a few abyssal mages circling a relic hunter.

Without hesitation, Ying directly drew her sword and slashed into the abyss mage.

"Be careful!" Dainsleif snorted softly, and a dodge dodged behind Ying, and it turned out that the original immobile relic hunter had awakened and was about to attack Yingying from behind.

The possibility of a sneak attack was lost, and in just a few minutes, the Relic Hunter and the Abyss Mage fell under Ying's bladeless sword.

"Thank you just now!" Putting away the bladeless sword, Ying turned to Dainsleib in thanks.

Waving his hand, Dainsleif didn't say anything, but looked down at the fallen relic hunter.

"Huh, in addition to the Abyss Order, the Ruins Guard is also active in this area..."

Paimon flew over from the side and said thoughtfully, "It feels like the place where the Abyss Mage is dormant, there are often ruin guards wandering, is this some kind of coincidence?" ”

"There are no coincidences in the world, everything is a seed planted in the distant past." Dainsleif, who had inspected the Relic Hunter, stood up, as if thinking of something, and said with some emotion, "Just like your appearance in that tavern, time is just waiting for it to sprout!" ”

Ying frowned, a little unable to understand what Dainsleif meant: "But I can only hear about you by chance..."

"Ha, it's okay, some unnecessary emotion!"

Dainsleif scoffed, as if mocking himself.
