People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 422 Eula: I will remember this grudge!
On the south side of Mond Bridge, next to the leyline anchor point.

After breakfast and providing clues about Tevarin, Lin Feng watched the team of travelers use the earth vein anchor point to reach the edge of the snow-capped mountain.

I stood there and thought about my plans for today.

Since there has been considerable progress in alchemy recently, we can begin to try to use the refined body to contain the soul.

Thinking there was no harm in practicing, he looked up at the sky and decided to make another trip to Benlang Territory.

The trial site in the center of Benlang Ridge.

In the center of the circular venue, which was as spacious as ever, there was a vivid portrait next to the worn-out iron sword.

As the first gift received in who knows how many years, this portrait was frozen in ice that would never melt and became Andrius's favorite collection recently.

It only took a moment to get from Mondstadt to Wolf Ridge, and after sensing Lin Feng's breath, the owner of this place quickly used ice and wind to condense a form around him.

Seeing the giant blue and white wolf emerge in the air,

After waving and saying hello, Lin Feng did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point:
"——The Windblume Festival is coming soon. Since you and Tevarin helped a lot five hundred years ago,
Tevarin now has the temple and the statue back. In return, Barbatos intends to use this festival to bring you back into the sight of the Mond people."

"Through this period of practice, I have gained some confidence in making a body based on the soul.

So I hope you can spare some time to practice with me recently.
In this way, perhaps in the next festival you can leave the Wolf Territory in a physical form, without having to use elemental condensation to manifest yourself. "

"."

I didn't expect to hear such words right after I came out, and I didn't expect that the things I was promised before would have the opportunity to be realized so soon.
Andrius paused, apparently in disbelief:

"You must have only been studying for a short time, how could it be so fast?"

“. Could it be that the information I have is wrong?
I heard from that alchemist before that it is very difficult to create a body for a being like the remnant soul of a demon god."

"."

“Of course it’s difficult, or it’s a headache.”

Knowing that Albedo had introduced this matter to Andrius before, Lin Feng, who had been worried about this recently, also sighed slightly:

"——In my opinion, helping a remnant soul rebuild its body is even more troublesome than treating multiple dying demons at the same time."

".With my current authority, if I just want to treat it, that's too easy. Even if the body is torn into pieces, as long as it's not completely dead for a moment, it can be restored immediately."

"But Andrius, your condition is actually fine. At least your soul is intact.
However, there are many beings like demons whose souls are completely shattered, and what remains are only a few fragments that can be called scraps.
The most basic requirement for the body is to match the soul, but I only have a few materials left, so the original body recovery has become a puzzle and reasoning."

Finally someone understands how troublesome this thing is.
Lin Feng was already too tired to complain about the broken things in Teyvat:
——"Residual soul", as the name suggests, is naturally a residual soul only when it is damaged to a certain degree.

The more I understand about the soul, the more I realize how durable the demons in Teyvat are.

If a soul like Andrius can transform itself and retain a lot of power, its completeness is 10.
The degree of integrity of some of the residual souls is only 1 or even 0.1, which can be said to be shattered into pieces in the true sense of the word.

Faced with this situation, what he did had nothing to do with treatment. To a large extent, he calculated the whole based on the existing fragments, and then provided the other party with the most suitable body.
A weak soul cannot bear an overly powerful body, and an unsuitable body will accelerate the consumption of power, just like the grass god turning into a mushroom beast in the plot.
For that type of existence, this series of processes is basically to create a soul container that can serve as a body, allowing the soul to recover in it, and then wait for the right time to come for a complete rebirth.

".The power of the soul is indeed difficult to replenish. After losing the body, even the demon god will only continue to consume it.
Your Excellency's research on the soul is still short, and my initial expectation for the body was just to reduce the consumption of energy.

Your ability to gradually restore your soul has already exceeded my expectations."

Andrius lowered his head with some emotion. He had not expected the man in front of him to improve so quickly.
The time of the demon gods is very long. Even if a demon god says that he is about to die, it is very likely that he still has hundreds or thousands of years left.

It was hard for him to imagine that any being could have made such progress in such a short time, which took less than a blink of an eye.

"After all, the grass element is closely connected to the soul, and it has provided some help to my research.
As for a complete soul like yours, I'm afraid you may not be able to find many even if you search all the dead in Teyvat.
The process of helping you recover your body is also a rehearsal for the difficult subjects that will come later."

Without much delay, I plan to get started directly.

Compared to those guys who were broken into pieces, I was glad that I still had Andrius in front of me to help me practice.
Lin Feng looked at the blue and white ice wind giant wolf in front of him. His greatest hope was that the Tree King and his other future patients would not be broken too far.
On the other side, snow-capped mountains.

While Lin Feng was researching how to bring Andrius back to life,
The wine delivery duo from Mondstadt has arrived at the camp at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

Because before coming here, I took a task from Miss Catherine.
Ying and Paimeng looked at the camp manager in front of them, who looked like a Liyue person, and was listening to his explanation seriously:
".The temperature in the snowy mountains is extremely low, and there are a large number of ice-attribute monsters inside that are much stronger than those outside.
We had indeed observed the appearance of the East Wind Dragon before. In the short period of time after his arrival, the entire snow mountain became much calmer.

But unfortunately, before our people were ready to reach the summit, the road to the top was blocked by the storm again."

There was a lot to say. First, he explained how to find the emergency resource points they had set up, and then he turned the topic to the last observation record.

While explaining, Yuxia looked at the two powerful explorers in front of her who were still willing to listen carefully, and suddenly she hoped from the bottom of her heart that all newcomers could be so cautious.

"So, has everyone in the camp also seen that "terrifying black monster" recently?"

"From this perspective, the commission issued by Miss Catherine is indeed not an illusion."

——Because she had mentioned her plan to come to the Snow Mountain when she passed by the Adventurer's Association, Miss Catherine took the opportunity to entrust them with the commission to investigate this monster.

It is said that the monster has a snake's tail, a lion's head, and sharp horns. It looks very strange.

So Paimeng always thought that it was most likely that the client had made a mistake. But when she arrived at the snow mountain and heard Yuxia in front of her say so, she scratched her head, a little curious about what kind of guy this was.

"."

".Thank you for your explanation. We have brought all the supplies and we will leave now.

If we find the monster later, we will try to clean it up.”

Say goodbye politely.
The combat capability has been greatly improved recently, so Ying is not too worried about a fight.

So after hearing Yuxia say that the existence of monsters made many adventurers feel uneasy, she also made a promise.

"——Thank you very much. I'll trouble you two. If I really find something, I will apply for additional rewards from the association."

I have already recognized these two highly recognizable celebrities in front of me.
Thinking that their military strength was recognized even by the Knights, Yuxia nodded with relief and gave them her blessings.

A moment later, at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

Walking along the snow-covered road, all you can see is the white snow that never melts all year round.
Observe as you move forward.
Paimon, who was flying in the air, curiously caught up with an ice crystal butterfly with a crystal blue tail.
After catching this cool little fellow, the white-haired ball said with some nostalgia when thinking about his previous experience here:
"The last time I came here, there were a lot of Fatui, and we traveled at night. I didn't expect the snow-capped mountains to look so beautiful during the day.
White fox, ice blue crystal butterfly, mint and pine trees covered with snow.
Apart from being a little cold, the creatures on the snowy mountains are really unique.”

"I don't know if that monster is something left behind by the Fatui.
Those guys were chased away but still remained restless, they are indeed a bunch of bad guys"???

After waiting for a while, I found that Ying didn't reply.

Paimeng turned to look at his companions with a little doubt, and then found that Ying seemed to be staring at a certain direction in the distance.

"Hmm? Is there anything over there? Let me take a look."

My curiosity suddenly rose, and I put aside my feelings.
Paimon floated up a little, wondering what Ying was looking at.

???

"Eh? What is that?"

Perhaps it was floating up too slowly, so the target noticed something.
Although her vision was also superior to that of an ordinary person, in the end, all she saw was a slightly blurry figure:

——Blue hair, tall figure, clothes that seem a little thin in the snow, and a conspicuous and exquisite sword.

I wanted to say hello to this snow mountain explorer I finally met.
But before Paimeng could get close, the figure over there seemed to have discovered her and Ying, and sped away.

???

I vaguely saw the mark of the Knights of Favonius on the clothes of the figure just now.

But because of this, Paimon couldn't understand why the other party wanted to stay away from them:
"Oh, that's strange. Is Paimon some scary guy?
They clearly looked like members of the Knights of Favonius, but they just sped away."

I've never encountered this situation before, and I don't know who this person is.
Paimon could only scratch his head, thinking that this was probably an eccentric weirdo.

"Maybe there's some critical mission, or maybe he's just not good at socializing."

Compared to Paimon, Ying was not too surprised by this situation.
They have met many people from the Knights in recent times. Since they have not seen this person,
Either she has been carrying out confidential missions, or she prefers to be alone.

"——Let's go, let's climb as high as we can, then find an open place and put a table there, and put the wine Wendy mentioned on it.

Although I don't know whether the poet's manuscript he gave me is useful, since there are signs that the Wind Dragon has been active here recently, maybe we can make him notice us."

No longer concerned about the figure in front of him, Ying planned to climb up first, and then pay a little attention to the so-called monster on the way.

If the final summoning ritual fails, then they will search the area carefully to see if there are any experimental subjects left behind by the Fatui.

"Well, well, let's climb up first.
As for who the knight we just saw is, we can ask Captain Jean when we get back.

There must not be many people who can explore the snowy mountains alone wearing such thin clothes. "

Still upset about the fact that he had just tried to get close but was pushed away by the other party, Paimon also wanted to know what had happened.

!!!

"Eh? Ying, look! There's a cave entrance covered by snow!"

"——Is this some secret base of the Fatui?!"

Not far away, Paimon saw a cute snow-white fox on the road, so he wanted to catch it.
As a result, Ying, who was afraid that Paimon would get lost, had just chased after him when she stepped on the snow and created a covered hole.

"."

Stand still,

There is a vague sense of déjà vu about this unexpected, yet not so unexpected development.

Ying looked at the dark cave. Because of her previous experiences in Liyue, she suddenly became worried that there might be a resurrected demon hidden inside.

"Whoosh-"

Faint sounds were coming from all around, like the sound of the wind, or like something digging a hole under the snow.

With an inexplicable ominous premonition, the blonde girl looked at the guide beside her and planned her next move:

"It's very dark and deep here, which is an environment that many monsters like. I think it's best for us not to go too deep.
We can set up some traps at the cave entrance first, and then decide based on the triggering situation when we come back."

"Roar--"

"boom--!"

!!!

Before he finished speaking, the snow exploded, and the roar of the monster and the roar of the sword tearing through the air were heard at the same time.
The ground shook as if there was a miniature earthquake.
Feeling the unusual aura under his feet, Ying's body tensed up, and he immediately raised his sword to defend himself with his superb fighting instinct!

"clang!"

The blade and claws intertwined, the monster that emerged from the ground was muscular, with purple flames wrapped around its body, and its snake-like tail spitting out its tongue. Its movements were filled with a terrifying sense of power.

Originally, its attack should have come faster, but a great sword made of solid ice pierced its hind leg, causing the monster's movement to slow down for a moment.

!!!

After a pause, I finally realized what was happening.
Seeing that the rice ball on his body had already opened up the shield, Paimeng felt relieved and immediately turned around to look in the direction where the ice sword came from, wanting to know who their reinforcements were:
“——Huh?! It’s that weird guy I just saw!”

As soon as I turned my head, I saw the blue-haired figure I saw earlier approaching.

But after this subconscious reminder was spoken,
A sentence that was meant to sound cold but had no deterrent effect due to the softness of the voice also reached the ears of the two people as the other party arrived:

"——I saved you guys, but you called me a weirdo the first time we met?"

"——Humph, I'll remember this grudge!"

???

Because this opening line is so unique, even in the middle of the battle,
After forcing the monster's claws away, Ying turned around to look at the female knight who was as white as ice and snow, and suddenly found that she did not seem to fit the stereotype of a knight.
