After the meal was finished, the gods all stared at each other with wide eyes and fell into an eerie silence.

Suddenly, Wendy saw a familiar figure and hurriedly greeted him, "Albedo! ”

Hearing Wendy's shout, Albedo walked over with Klee and asked Wendy, "Did something happen?" ”

"This."

When Wendy was still thinking about how to explain to him about having no money for dinner, Tassel said directly: "Wendy said to invite the three of us to dinner, but he didn't bring any money." ”

Wendy: "."

Listening to Tassel's words, Albedo nodded and said, "I see, do you want me to help pay the bill?" ”

"Well, I don't have Mora." Wendy scratched her head and said.

Albedo wondered, "You've spent all the Mora you earned in Inazuma?" ”

Venti: "Oh hey! ”

Albedo didn't understand why there was no Mora in front of him, but he still paid for Wendy's meal.

Seeing Albedo finish paying the bill, Wendy smiled at Albedo and said, "Thank you for your help, may the wind god fool you." ”

Albedo: "."

On the other side, Ying, Paimon and the others also solved the theft of the puppet perfectly, and finally got a sample of the [Statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace] sent by the shopkeeper.

Kujou Sara saw the [Statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace] that Ying took out, and said in disbelief: "Well, is this .?" ”

Paimon looked at the delicate clay puppet placed in front of him and said, "I was busy before, but I haven't appreciated it properly, but if you look closely, this workmanship is really good."

Hearing Paimon's words, Kujou Sara bowed his head and said, "Of course. It was designed by Yaedo's top painters and handcrafted by the most experienced lacquerware masters in Inazuma Castle."

"If this is not the case, how can we restore one-thousandth of the solemn appearance of the general?"

"If you want to make the light permanent and lasting, you also need to buy a special shrine and worship it carefully."

Ying saw Shadow and Tassel walking in from the outside at this time, and Shadow walked directly behind Kujou Sara and quietly listened to Kujou Sara's tiger wolf speech immersed in his own world, as for Tassel, she was watching a few people from the side like watching a play.

Ying: "."

Paimon also saw the figure standing behind Kujou Sara touching her chin and falling into deep thought, and hurriedly waved her hand at her, motioning for her to stop talking.

As if he hadn't noticed, Kujou Sara continued to say to himself, "Be sure to wipe it diligently at all times, don't get dusty, and it's best to ask a craftsman to come and maintain it."

Seeing that Sara was still immersed in his own world and said to himself, Paimon couldn't help but remind him, "Sarah. Sara! ”

Interrupted by Paimon's voice, Kujou Sara came back to his senses from his world and said with some confusion, "Huh? What's the matter, the maintenance method of this [Imperial Statue of the Great Imperial Palace], I have summarized five main points, and I haven't finished the first one."

Shadow looked at the [Statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace] touched his chin and said, "This little puppet has so many sayings. but I did not hear the Son of God speak to me. ”

Hearing the sound of the shadow, Kujou Sara's body stiffened, and then he turned his head suddenly, and saw the shadow who was looking at the [Statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace], and asked with a surprised face: "-Will... General?! How could you."

"I have nothing to do, I'm just strolling around Inazuma Castle with my friends, and when I heard a familiar sound here, I thought I'd come and investigate." Shadow replied.

After separating from Wendy and Zhongli, Shadow flew all the way towards Inazuma Castle with the tassel, and saw some beautiful scenes in the air, and Shadow would stop his movements and tell the tassel about what happened back then, in the process, the tassel didn't speak, just silently listened to Ei's story.

The speed of the two was not slow, and after a while, they came to the outside of Inazuma Castle, and when they walked in Inazuma Castle, Kage didn't notice the admirable gaze this time, and she felt that the reason for all this might be that she was not using the identity of Raiden Shogun now.

When the two of them walked to the vicinity of the office, Ying heard the voices of Kujou Sara and Paimon coming from inside the office, so Ying walked in with some curiosity to investigate.

"Huh? You bought this doll? Shadow asked Kujou Sara, who was a little overwhelmed.

Kujou Sara replied a little stumbling, "This is. Yes."

Then he jerked his eyes to Ying, and continued: "-It's her. ”

Hearing Kujou Sara's words, Paimon was surprised, "Ahh

Ying: "."

Ying was silent, she didn't expect that Kujou Sara, who had always been serious and calm, would also do the act of throwing the pot.

Shadow said flatly, "Sarah." ”

"What, what's wrong?" Kujou Sara asked, a little nervous.

Shadow said, "In my opinion, Ying is not such a person, she has no interest in these small objects. ”

Kujou Sara: "."

"So."

"Your Excellency. The defense of the Rongcai Festival has not yet been arranged, please forgive your subordinates for retiring first! Before Kage could finish speaking, Kujou Sara interrupted her directly.

Kage looked at the nervous Kujou Sara, and didn't continue, and said to him, "Well, I'm sorry for you." ”

Kujou Sara listened to Ei's words, glanced at the [Statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace] with some unwillingness, and then left with his head down and heavy steps.

"Sara's back looks a little sad." Paimon Sara left, turning to Ying.

Shadow watched Kujou Sara's back disappear and said to Ying and Paimon, "I know, because this little object must have been prepared for Sara." ”

Paimon asked in surprise, "Huh? Ei, how do you know? ”

Shadow replied, "As I said before, I know you, and this little object should be dispensable to you compared to Mora weapons. ”

Ying: "."

You see how accurate people are!

"No, no, that's what we bought, and we're interested in this." Paimon continued to argue.

Shadow said, "Really? Naying, there is also a doll at the Narukami Shrine, which is a sample kept by Yaedo, since you like it, it is useless for me to put it, so I might as well give it to you. ”

Ying said helplessly: "But there is already one here"

"You don't have any jokes. Since I have already said that I will give it to you, what I want to do with it is up to you, and then I can give it to others. ”

Ying continued: "If it is troublesome to transfer, I will send someone directly from the house, or it can be just this person who gives the gift, and I should write your name." ”

Hearing Ei's words, Paimon was a little puzzled and said, "Why are you making such a hassle?"

"Paimon, don't ask anymore." Ying covered her face and said, she couldn't figure out if Paimon was really stupid or pretending to be stupid here, which made her a little unconfident.

Shadow: "."

Thinking of this, Ying said to Ying: "Just send it to the Heavenly Leader Mansion, and the gift giver will write [Traveler]." ”

"That's very good, I'll send someone to prepare it when I get back." Shadow Head said: "By the way, I wish you all the best in the Rongcai Sacrifice, and you all get what you want." ”

Ying smiled and nodded, "Thank you." ”

"Anyway, tassels, Shadow, how are you together?" Paimon wondered.

"Isn't this the end of the Rongcai Festival, so I thought about going out for a walk, but I didn't expect to meet Wendy and Zhongli when I was on the island, but they invited guests to dinner and didn't bring Mora, and in the end it was Albedo on the mat." Tassel spread his hands and replied.

Paimon scratched his head and said, "Well, I don't understand why you don't like to take Mora, but Mora looks golden and so tempting." ”

"Don't talk about that, there's something I need your help with." Tassel changed the subject.

"Huh? What's the matter? Paimon wondered.

Tassel replied, "There's something wrong with Sumeru's World Tree, and I need you to investigate. ”

Listening to Tassel's words, Paimon asked, "World Tree?" Something went wrong? Isn't managing the World Tree your thing? Why don't you handle it yourself? ”

Tassel smiled and replied, "Because I'm on vacation, I'm dying of exhaustion from a tree in Liyue, so I don't have the energy to take care of that tree in Sumeru." ”

"Hey, I don't believe it, you either fish or fish every day, and you are more leisurely than Zhongli." Paimon said incredulously, "We're going to rest during this time, so we won't accept the commission." ”

Tassel didn't care about Paimon's words and continued, "Then are you going or not?" ”

"We don't"

Before Paimon could finish speaking, Ying interrupted, "Let's go!" ”

"Huh? Why? Paimon looked at Ying with some confusion and asked, "Didn't you say that you couldn't solve the commission during this time?" ”

"You're stupid, if you don't accept the commission, you won't accept someone else's commission, and the tassel still has to be accepted, otherwise how can you become stronger?" Ying glanced at Paimon and said with a look of hatred.

"Oh? That's good, the mission objective has been sent to your Skynet, you just need to follow the instructions of the mission to complete it. Tassel nodded.

"Hmm." Ying nodded, and then probed the task given by Skynet, and knew it in her heart.

Paimon, who was thinking about it next to him, suddenly thought of something and said to Ying, "Wow, Ying, it seems that there is still one last ship to reach the outlying island today, let's hurry over." ”

"At this time, is there anyone still coming?" Ying scratched her head and asked with some confusion.

Paimon also said with some confusion: "Yes, the Rongcai Festival is in the final stage, how can there be guests at this time?" ”

"Then you can go over first, and it's not too late for me to wait until you finish dealing with the current stage." Tassel spoke.

Paimon glanced at Skynet's time, and said to Yingtan, "It seems that if we go to the outlying islands now, we won't have enough time." ”

Ying: "."

"Then I'll send you there." Tassel sighed, and then opened a portal to the outlying island.

Hearing Tassel's words, Paimon excitedly shouted, "Yes, thank you Tassel!" ”

"That way, we won't be late, let's get in quickly." Paimon said to Ying.

Ying nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Watching Ying and Paimon walk into the crack, Tassel touched his chin and suddenly frowned.

"Tassel, what's wrong?" Shadow looked at the tassel that suddenly became solemn, and asked with some confusion.

"Nothing, just a few little bugs." Tassel replied, "I'll have to go over and fix it." ”

"Need my help?" Shadow continued to ask.

Looking at the shadow in front of him looking at him with a look of hope, Tassel thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, follow me." ”

With that, the tassel opened a spatial crack again and walked in, Shadow followed closely behind the tassel.

In a golden space, several Abyss Apostles and Abyss Singers were looking at their surroundings with wary expressions.

"Where is this?" The abyssal apostle led by him said solemnly: "His Highness disappeared in this space, and we followed closely behind, but we didn't expect to come to this world. ”

"What do we do now? The rich purifying aura of this golden space makes me feel uncomfortable, but in this world, it stands to reason that we should have been purified by this world a long time ago, but at this time, we have not been purified by it. An Abyssal Singer spoke.

The Abyss Apostle replied, "I don't know, but I can be sure that this is His Highness's side of the world, and this familiar purifying aura is the same as that used by His Highness. ”

"We haven't been purified, maybe Your Highness noticed our appearance."

While several people were discussing, the figures of Tassel and Shadow appeared here.

The tassel's figure suddenly appeared, causing the people of the Abyss Order to look at her with a wary expression.

Tassel looked at several members of the Abyss Order who had come from the other world, and said expressionlessly, "Outsiders, you shouldn't be here. ”

"The gods of this world?" The abyss apostle led by him solemnly looked at the tassel that suddenly appeared and asked.

Tassel: "."

Tassel didn't speak, just watched them quietly, and Tassel also knew that they were members of the Abyss Order that Ying had followed in another Teyvat continent.

After being silent for a while, Tassel stretched out her hand and a portal appeared in this world, and she said lightly to several people in the Abyss Order: "Go back." ”

Listening to Tassel's words and the portal that appeared in front of him, the Abyss Apostle led by him glanced at Tassel in surprise, although he couldn't see the face of the Abyss Apostle, Tassel could still feel surprise from him.

"I came to this world to follow in the footsteps of His Highness." The abyss apostle led by him said respectfully to the tassel as if he had ignored the portal in front of him.

Shadow spoke on the side: "Tassel, is it a member of the Abyss Order?" Do I need to deal with them? ”

"No, they are members of the Abyss Order in another world, and they have nothing to do with our world." Tassel shook his head.

Ei listened to the tassel words and asked with some surprise, "Abyss Order in another world?" ”

When Tassel and Shadow were talking, the atmosphere of the Abyss Order didn't dare to breathe, because the gods in front of them were different from what they knew, and even the heavenly principles of that world did not bring them such a heavy and oppressive feeling.

Tassel nodded, "Well, Ying went to another world before, and in that world there is the same Shadow as you, the same Morax, the same Wendy, the same Traveler and Paimon, but the Traveler over there is Sora, and the Traveler here is Ying." ”

"About the mirror world of the Twins?" Listening to Tassel's words, Shadow touched his chin and thought, "Or maybe it's a different reincarnation." ”

"What reincarnation?" Tassel wondered.

Shadow shook his head and explained, "I don't understand it either, but I didn't know the word unconsciously, and at this time, I felt as if I had gone through countless reincarnations. ”

"Experienced countless reincarnations? Is there anything else that comes to mind? Listening to Ei's words, Tassel was a little surprised.

Ying thought about it for a while and gave up, and said to the tassel: "No, it hurts a little bit if you think about it again, it seems that some memories have been sealed by something." ”

"Hmm." Tassel nodded and didn't ask anything more.

Shadow whispered, "I'm sorry. ”

Hearing Ei's sudden apology, Tassel asked a little puzzled, "Why apologize?" ”

Shadow explained, "If I can think of something, I can help you." ”

Tassel: "."

"Why haven't you gone back here yet?" Looking at the people of the Abyss Sect who were still standing in place, Tassel wondered.

"Godza, I came to this world after following in the footsteps of His Highness, so we don't want to go back." The abyss apostle at the head said to the tassel.

Tassel shook his head and said, "But Ying is here, and I don't need you." ”

Apostle of the Abyss: ."

The abyssal apostles led by Tassel listened to Tassel's words, and were silent, and did not continue to ask Tassel, and they did not enter the portal to go back.

Tassel: "."

Seeing that the people of the Abyss Order were so persistent, Tassel thought about it for a while, and came up with a good idea and said to them: "That's it, it's not impossible for you to stay, but"

"I don't know what Godza needs me to do?" The abyssal apostle at the head asked.

Tassel flickered: "The stars and the abyss, if you are the abyss, and I am your opposite, the stars." ”

"Stars?" The apostle at the head of the figure was surprised: "No, no, you are not a star, we can feel that. ”

Tassel was surprised: "Oh? ”

The Apostle of the Abyss explained, "How can the illusory stars in the sky be compared to the real sun? ”

"Have you ever thought that the sun is just one of many stars?" Tassel spoke.

Apostle of the Abyss: "??? ”

"No, it can't be, the sun is the sun, and the stars are the stars." The Abyss Apostle shook his head.

After listening to the words of the Abyss Apostle, Tassel didn't explain much to him, because everyone in Teyvat believed that the sun was the sun, and the stars in the sky were dotted with meteorites.

Thinking of this, Tassel separated a small branch of the Golden Tree and distributed it to the members of the Abyss Order.

"What is this?" The abyss apostle at the head wondered.

"A means of keeping you, of course, you can also not accept it." Tassel explained.

"What happens if we don't accept it?" The Abyss Apostle continued.

Tassel replied, "Send you back." ”

Listening to Tassel's words, the Abyss Apostle led by him gritted his teeth and grabbed the scorching golden branch in front of him into his hand, and the moment he touched the golden branch, the golden flame rose from his palm, and then burned down his arm to his whole body.

"Ahh

The Abyss Apostle felt the flames coming from the golden branch in his hand as if it were burning his soul, and although it was painful, he still did not let go of the branch in his hand, because he sensed that the golden flame was purifying his soul.

"Quick, accept this gift, this branch that will cleanse us of the curse that goes deep into our souls." He shouted to those behind him, holding back his pain.

"Yes!"

The people of the Abyss Order behind him listened to his words, their expressions were excited, what was pain for lifting the curse? So they grabbed the golden branches in front of them in their hands.

Then the golden space resounded with the hysterical shouts of the people of the Abyss Order.

Tassel: "."

"Tassel, what are you doing here?" Shadow looked at the people of the Abyss Order who were scorched by the golden flames, and under the flames, a lot of blue aura overflowed from their bodies, so she asked the tassel with some confusion.

Tassel replied, "Experiment with a possibility, and at the moment, it works pretty well." ”

"Oh? In this way, you can purify the people of the Abyss Order and make them become their original form? ”

Hearing Ei's words, Tassel shook his head and said, "Why do you want to rescue the people of the Abyss Order?" I don't know them well, and the branches of the Golden Tree are so precious, use them to save people? I'm not that stupid. ”

"And what are you?"

Tassel explained, "Because they are followers of the Glow, I can feel it, and for a possibility, I try it on them, and they are a weapon to destroy the Abyss Order." ”

Shadow: "."

It's you, the people who used the people of the Abyss Order to solve the Abyss Order, although the two are not the same world, but they are essentially the same.

After a long time, the people of the Abyss Cult no longer emitted blue aura, and they no longer felt the pain they had before, but a kind of warmth and comfort that they had not felt for a long time.

After getting used to it, everyone in the reborn Abyss Order knelt down on one knee in front of the tassel and shouted respectfully, "I have thanked the god seat for the gift." ”

Tassel spoke: "You should have heard what I said just now, this kind of ability cannot be mass-produced, so it is impossible for you to save your people by relying on this. ”

"I'll know." The abyssal apostle nodded in reply.

Tassel continued, "Now that you have been reborn, the Abyss Order is no longer suitable for you, so you will now be called the Golden Guard, and the Abyss Apostle has also been changed to the Star Emissary. ”

Although they were a little puzzled by what the Golden Tree was, they still nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

"Alright, you guys go." Tassel waved his hand.

"Then can I continue to follow His Highness now?" The leader asked.

Tassel bowed his head and said: "Yes, you can take this well, and I can give you some help." ”

"This is, the tool used by His Highness before?" The Star Messenger took another style of Skynet from the tassel and put it on, and a huge amount of basic knowledge came into their minds.

A kind of golden guard silently accepted the knowledge passed on, and after they had completely digested it, the star apostle led by him said in surprise to the tassel: "It turns out that Your Highness's tools were also obtained from you. ”

Tassel bowed his head and said, "Hmm." ”

Before the Star Messenger could ask anything more, Tassel waved his hand and sent them all out.

The Golden Guards only felt a flower in front of them, and when they came back to their senses, they had already left the golden world and appeared under the blue sky and white clouds.

A star mage surveyed his surroundings and asked the star apostle led by him. "What should I do now?"

The Apostle of the Stars replied, "Naturally, we should seek out Your Highness and assist her in her time of need, for we have all this thanks to Your Highness." ”

Master Xingchen continued to ask: "However, although His Highness's ability is not as good as that of the Divine Throne, his strength is also stronger than ours, can I really help with the things that His Highness can't solve?" ”

The Star Apostle led by him thought for a while and then spoke: "Your Highness will always have a time when you need to wait for us, just like Sumeru in that world, not everything is done by Your Highness. ”
