Genshin Impact: The Vision of Gods Shines Again

"This is Mr. Kavi, who will one day be famous throughout the entire continent of Teyvat..."

Dolly raised her head and smiled at Kavi.

"I'm sorry, I didn't seem to notice Mr. Kavi was here before."

The merchant's cunning smile appeared obsequious to others, but Kavi sensed something sinister in it.

As if realizing something, Kavi looked at the bag full of Mora in his hand, and then at the merchant who was shorter than him.

Well, the pockets full of Mora felt completely cold...

...

The enormous tree reached for the sky, blocking out the sun. Flames engulfed its former lushness, and the red color seemed to foreshadow the slow collapse of the old order.

This is a nightmare, a nightmare unlike any of the pasts I'd rather not recall.

Even so, all of this still startled Cole awake from his desk.

The fear in her dream appeared in reality as Cole woke up, but was then suppressed by the tranquility of reality.

"Colette, it's time to go patrol the forest."

Tina's voice came just then, making Cole look towards the door.

"Understood, Master Tinari."

Cole stood up and responded to Tinari, his thoughts once again sinking into the dream he had just experienced.

In her dream, she saw not only the big tree, but also a masked man under the tree.

It was the doctor, the one who brought nightmares to Cole.

Every time she thought about it, Ke Lai felt a chill run down her spine, as if she had returned to the time when she was injected with the remnants of the demon god and participated in the experiment.

Cole looked at his left hand, then gripped the hair ribbon hanging below the Eye of God tightly.

A warm feeling emanated from the headband, calming my heart considerably.

Clutching the hairband, Cole recalled her previous dream, the dream so vivid that it felt strange to her.

"The dream I just had..."

Chapter 165 Experiments and Shadows

"Colette?"

Tina stopped in her tracks; she could sense that Cole beside her seemed somewhat distracted.

"Are you feeling unwell again?"

Tinari's words brought Cole back to his senses from his previous dream.

"No, Master."

Looking at the quiet flowers and plants around her, Ke Lai realized that the scene was completely different from the one in her dream.

She felt somewhat relieved, then shook her head.

The realism of the dream made Cole feel a little uneasy, after all, Cole really liked her current life.

Without much hesitation, Cole told Tinari about what happened in her dream.

Everything Cole said made Tinari slow down.

The scholar's rigor prevented Tinari from believing all of this based on a vague and unfounded dream.

But Tinari knew that Cole didn't have the habit of sharing his dreams with others.

Cole's unusual behavior made Tinari realize that this was no ordinary dream.

Whether you affirm or deny it, you must first approach this matter with a skeptical attitude.

Their slowed pace naturally came to a stop, and Tina's gaze fell on Cole.

Regardless of the circumstances, this matter is worth investigating.

"Coley, that concludes today's forest patrol."

"I should be leaving Huacheng Guo in the next few days to stay at Channa Garden for a while."

"Now, you go back first."

Tinari told Cole about the upcoming itinerary.

Without waiting for Cole's reply, he headed straight towards the Zen Garden.

The decisive action left Cole speechless, but the end of the forest patrol also gave Cole some time to himself.

Clutching the hairband beneath the Eye of God once more, Cory remembered the letter Amber had sent her.

—A few days have passed, Amber should be arriving soon.

Thinking of this, Cole unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, wanting to go to Port Ormos to personally welcome Amber.

However, Ke Lai quickly suppressed the impulse brought on by this joy and turned to return to Huacheng Guo.

Tinari had previously told Cole that her body was not currently suited for overexertion or long-distance travel.

Although she wanted to see Amber as soon as possible, Cole didn't want others to worry about her.

Since we can't meet Amber sooner... let's make our reunion later even happier.

Ever since the traveler left Huacheng Guo, Ke Lai had been preparing a small welcoming ceremony and had even carefully made a gift.

—Just wait for Amber to arrive...

Ke Lai's thoughts suddenly stopped, and his gaze, which had been fixed on Hua Cheng Guo, looked around.

She looked puzzled; there didn't even seem to be the chirping of a rainbow lorikeet around her.

The confusion on her face drew attention, causing people to subconsciously ignore the right hand that Cole reached behind her.

Cole quickly grabbed the short bow behind him with his right hand, and the confusion on his face vanished instantly.

At this moment, Cole looked warily at the bushes not far away.

A series of sounds of clothes rustling through the leaves rang out, and one after another, tall men with bulging muscles emerged from the bushes.

Although most of these people were masked, the curved swords in the men's hands revealed their identities.

Members of the Gilded Brigade.

Although I don't know which gilded troupe it is, but...

"Openly attacking a forest ranger..."

Cole deliberately omitted the word "trainee" before "forest ranger" and, mimicking Tinari, continued speaking.

"Aren't you afraid of the disciplinary officials of Mount Sumeru?"

Clearly, these people scoffed at Cole's words.

If they were truly afraid, they wouldn't be here.

The desert-style scimitar spun in the hand of the leader.

Finally, gripping the hilt of the knife tightly, he gave instructions to those around him.

"Catch her."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of several arrows whizzing through the air.

Extensive practice has made Cole's accuracy quite good.

It was just Cole's goodwill that he didn't hit the guy.

It can be considered a well-intentioned warning.

However, this goodwill may be seen as a threat by different people.

The troupe members, charging with their scimitars, increased their speed, only to collide head-on with a green boomerang blade.

Although Cole's physical body is not as good as those of the Phantom Troupe members who live on the edge of death, she is still the possessor of the Eye of God.

The brigade members who were hit by the boomerang tried to block the blade with their scimitars.

But the moment it made contact with the boomerang, green grass elemental energy exploded from the boomerang.

The surging grass elemental energy engulfed the member, and Kolai turned to aim his bow and arrow at another member of the troupe.

He shot an arrow, then Cole turned and ran.

Cole remembered what his master, Tinari, had told him.

Choosing to confront someone head-on when you're alone is something only a fool would do.

Moreover, this is Huacheng Guo, and the number of forest rangers here is far greater than the number of people in these gilded tour groups.

The previously aggressive Cora suddenly ran away, catching the members of the Gilded Troupe off guard.

However, they quickly recovered after realizing what had happened.

Instead of speeding up to catch up with Cole, they gradually reduced the girl's area of ​​activity.

after all...

They couldn't have exposed themselves like that without being fully prepared.

Seeing that the members of the gilded troupe were not chasing after him, Cole was not happy to have shaken them off.

The surrounding environment remained as quiet as ever until Cole saw the familiar-looking man wearing a mask in front of him.

The man made Cole stop in her tracks, and painful memories of the past flooded her mind.

Every painful memory is accompanied by the man before her; this man has become Cole's nightmare.

Cole's face gradually turned pale, and she involuntarily took a step back.

"PhD..."

"It seems this experiment subject still remembers me."

The doctor stood with his hands behind his back, observing Cole as if he were looking at an object.

As the voice faded, the gilded brigade behind Cole caught up with him.
