People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 226: The Completely Revived Grass Dragon
The body of the Grass Dragon was an oasis that gave birth to countless lives.

Because of the assistance of the owner of this space,
The journey of the four people coming here was not as bumpy as in the game, but very peaceful.

Feeling the strangeness and uniqueness of this space, recalling the process of coming here,

Lin Feng also gained a better understanding of the strangeness of the world of Teyvat and the ancient dragon status of the Grass Dragon.

——Not by means of caves and heavens, but by directly accommodating a complete ecological environment in one's body,
This kind of existence, which can even give birth to life independently, is a very high-level individual in any world.

——As expected of the original owner of this continent, one of the first rulers who survived from ancient times to the present day,

The special qualities contained in this ancient dragon body are much stronger than those of Tevarin, Rota, or Navilet who were born later.

Back to now,

After an experience that felt like traveling through a huge dark tunnel,
As the green light around them gradually disappeared, the feeling of being grounded returned to Lin Feng and his group.

When the healing team including the three followers arrived in this space,

The scenery here also gave Lin Feng a long-lost feeling of amazement, as if he had just entered Teyvat and experienced the ecology of an alien world firsthand.

——Countless yellow-green blocks of various shapes, like stained glass in a church, formed a semicircular dome between the plant veins.
Under this structure, which is most likely "cells" and "blood vessels", many primitive plants that have long been extinct in the outside world are also scattered on both sides of the dried-up stream.

Even though much of it has decayed under the influence of the abyss, the former beauty of the oasis can still be seen in the wreckage.

Towering mountains, rivers that weave like a network, and many plants that can only be seen in fossils.
The space inside Apep's body, just like its identity as an ancient dragon, fully embodies the primitive and ancient barbaric atmosphere.

Unlike Lin Feng and Wendy who are mostly novel,
Nashida, who was already carrying out the mission left by the previous generation of grass gods,
After entering Apep's body in such an unusual way, the emotions in his heart were actually extremely complicated.

——For some reason, although the relevant memories are a little vague, she feels that the healing grass dragon promised by the Great Compassion Tree King,
The original process should not be like this now, where the opponent is pinned to the ground and beaten, but he still comes in gratefully.
If there wasn't a guy who often teased her, perhaps the situation would be a lot more complicated.

Seeing that the promise made by the Tree King a thousand years ago was about to be fulfilled, the Little Grass God felt relieved.
He looked up and glanced at Lin Feng, who was concentrating on analyzing this space with the God of Wind.
With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he called the other three members of the team and shared a treatment method he had discovered deep in the void.

".The Grass Dragon's physique is very special, because of its extremely strong adaptability,
Although its ability to resist contamination from forbidden knowledge is much stronger than that of ordinary life, it is also more difficult to eliminate. "

Nashida, who is the youngest among the four and still looks like a child,
Because I have been collecting relevant information from the void and books during this period of time,

At this moment, he was standing in front of Lin Feng, Zhongli and Wendy, temporarily taking on the role of intelligence provider.

"Because of this 'adaptation', Apep and forbidden knowledge have been closely linked for thousands of years.

Just like a tumor that has penetrated deep into an organ, if it is removed roughly, the huge cavities that suddenly appear will also lead to a situation similar to the failure of ordinary biological organs.

This kind of result should be avoided as much as possible at this moment when we have reached an alliance with the other party."

"."

Because after the contract was signed, Apep was actually considered a member of his own fighting force.
Even though "life-threatening" situations are almost impossible for the Grass Dragon, it is still necessary to consider how to make the opponent's condition better.

".If the Grass God says so, then Lin will remove the contamination of forbidden knowledge.

At the same time, we can help it recover by replenishing its elemental power, which should be the best way to deal with it at present."

After a little thought, Zhongli proposed his plan.

"exactly."

Nacida nodded.

"I had already communicated with the Dragon of Grass in advance when I came here.
Through the information shared by the other party,
I found that Apep's elemental adaptability is very strong. It is not only able to absorb grass elemental power, but can also use multiple elements to help its own recovery. "

"——This extremely powerful recovery ability is also one of the characteristics of the Grass Dragon in the records."

After a brief pause, she continued:

"At present, because the elemental heart "Oasis Heart" in the opponent's body has stopped functioning and lost most of its functions,
As a result, Apep's efficiency in absorbing elements has been greatly reduced, so he can only barely fight against the damage caused by the forbidden knowledge and has been unable to fully recover."

"——So, after the key steps are completed and the forbidden knowledge is cleared,

I would like to trouble you two to use your authority to work with me to mobilize the elements from the outside world to help the Grass Dragon fill the elemental void in its body and restore the function of the Heart of the Oasis."

"."

The overall plan is briefly explained.

Because the lineup this time is so luxurious, Nashida is not actually worried about not being able to meet the elemental needs of the Grass Dragon.

In addition, in the previous battle, a lot of Apep's abyss power had been released and purified, so the remaining workload was not too large.

So after telling Lin Feng the gathering place of the power of the abyss provided by the other party and watching the other party walk towards the heart of the oasis,
This significant Grass Dragon treatment plan has officially entered its initial stage with the cooperation of everyone.

Come to the outside world,

After Lin Feng and his group entered the body of the Grass Dragon,

In the endless yellow sand, the dead silence without any life returned again.

Quietly watching several reddish-brown sand scorpions and a strange white, long weasel-like creature at the edge of the battle area,
Apep, who had been captured by the outsider and signed a contract, no longer had to hide from anything. Instead, he felt an indescribable sense of calm at this moment.

——Although they are very troublesome as enemies, when such abnormal existences become friendly forces, they can also bring a full sense of security.

There is no reason to hinder the other party's actions.
Apep closed his eyes and used the little control he had left to put the guardians of his immune system into a silent state.

"."

".It's finally started."

Feeling a sharp pain and a hollow feeling coming from the tail, the Grass Dragon's body pressure was relieved a little bit.
Knowing that the outsider within him has begun to purify the forbidden knowledge within his body.

Shift your attention to the world within your body.
It was extremely surprised to find that these dark forces that were like a thorn in the flesh in the past would melt away quickly like ice and snow in the sun once they came into contact with the other party.

Because this process was faster than expected,
There is no extra energy to observe the uniqueness of the other party.
As elemental voids appeared in his body, Apep began to do his best to mobilize elements from other locations to replenish them and stabilize his own state as much as possible.

——According to the current progress of the removal, when the forbidden knowledge completely disappears, although its status will fall into a slump in a short period of time, and even be much worse than the current state,

But at this moment, apart from the relief that came from the bottom of its heart, it did not feel the slightest regret for the departure of this power.

——Not everyone can master forbidden knowledge perfectly. For those who are not qualified, this thing is the most powerful poison in the world. In the millennium of pain, it has realized the gap between itself and the Dragon King, and no longer desires the power outside this world.

".Even though we are the original inhabitants of this continent, we are still no match for these darlings from outer space."

Deeply aware of the limit of his own strength, Apep envied more than ever the outsider in his body who came from outer space and seemed to have no bottleneck.

As the forbidden knowledge gradually faded away, Apep gradually felt that he could no longer keep up with the speed of plugging the gap.

Having anticipated such a result, it immediately adjusted the direction of the elements in its body.
He planned to give up those unnecessary gaps and concentrate all his strength on the hollow spaces in some key parts to minimize the loss of strength.

"boom--"

But before it could start to transfer the elemental force from the tail,

Along with the rumbling sound of a large number of elements being mobilized, three-color light spots like rivers gathered from the earth veins and the sky.

!!!

".Is this the authority of those gods?"

"…These people of Amon's kind actually used their own strength to help me recover?"

"."

Grass green, golden yellow, sky blue,

Countless elemental forces gathered from all directions. Even a giant like the Grass Dragon was submerged in the elemental torrent brought together by the three gods.
Apep, who had never imagined that the other party would really do their best to help him recover, had no time to be surprised at the difference between these guys and Amon.

Previously, because the Heart of the Oasis had stopped functioning, it was not only unable to absorb a large amount of external elemental power, but its own power was also constantly leaking into the desert.

In order not to waste such a huge amount of elemental power, they began to race against time to digest this power jointly brought by the three gods.

Unlike the previous situation of robbing Peter to pay Paul, Apep had not seen such a large amount of elemental power in a thousand years.

With the removal of the power of the abyss and the replenishment of elemental authority, I felt that my condition was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

——The withered and dull scales became tight again, and the extremely empty breath gradually became solid.

The dried-up elemental streams in the inner world gradually began to flow with clear springs, and even the sandy yellow body slowly regained a hint of green that symbolized life.
It's not just a change in appearance.
The world inside Apep's body is actually the biggest beneficiary of this change.

As some kind of purifying force gradually swept upward from the tail,

Its followers, which had lost their normal life forms, turned pale and resembled pupae and moths, also received the healing they had never expected.

Just like waking up from a long nightmare, their twisted bodies gradually melted away in the emerald green light and transformed into balls of elemental force carrying emotions and memories.

Finally, under the guidance of the three remaining mushroom-like members of the same species, they converged and evolved into the appearance of mushroom beasts.

For a moment, these mushrooms, which had suddenly returned to their normal form and were still unable to adapt,

It was as if they had never imagined such an outcome. They were all completely confused as they could not understand the current situation.

"Rumble--"

Apep's breath became purer and purer, gradually approaching the original grass dragon that had never been exposed to forbidden knowledge and symbolized the purest life.

Because of this,
In the sea of ​​sand, countless emerald green sandworms with sharp horns on their heads were rushing towards a certain direction as if on pilgrimage, to the astonishment of countless desert residents.

In the oasis,

The changes in the outside world showed that Nashida and her colleagues had already reached the final stage of their work.
After the remnants of the abyss were completely emptied,
Lin Feng opened his eyes and looked at the Oasis Heart in front of him, which was gradually becoming fuller and looked like slime gel.

Ignoring the sea slug next to me that I had held down because it was a little excited,

With her eyes, she signaled to Nashida beside her that she could let the "spark" fulfill the duty given to it when it was born.

"Snapped--"

A subtle sound like glass breaking came from the green crystal surrounded by vines.
This "Seed of Revival" created by the Great Compassion Tree King and Apep thousands of years ago has also transformed into the purest elemental power and returned to the elemental heart in front of everyone.

"rustle--"

Like a new leaf unfurling in the sun,

There were subtle noises coming from all around.

After a while,

It is like a seed that, after countless years of silence, has finally accumulated enough power to overturn the stubborn rock.

Amidst a violent tremor that shook the earth and mountains, the "rebirth" of this world officially began.

——Green ripples spread out from the sphere in front of him, and the rhythm of life sprouted again in the dead silence.

In the oasis that had seemed dark, dead, and particularly gloomy before,

In an instant, it was as if a new sun appeared, becoming brighter and more shining.

The dead wood sprouts branches, the dead grass sprouts,
Countless rare plants that have long been extinct are sprouting, growing and blooming again in the oasis.
In this world that once gave birth to the world's first fern and first flower, the miracle of life is re-enacted.

I don't know when,

Apep's projection also quietly manifested in the body.
This oldest grass dragon king did not say a word after he appeared. He just looked at the sprouting fern in front of him quietly.

"."

In front of the four gods who looked back at this place,

It looks at this plant that has been forgotten by time in the outside world.

It was as if I saw myself being left here alone by time, and I fell into a long silence.
