Cross through Teyvat, and you'll become stronger by taking the hits!

Upon hearing Gustott's voice, Lu Li frowned, and black sludge gradually seeped from the dark wings behind him.

At the same time, the remaining abyssal power from the Kingdom of Night and the land of Nata surged into the sky and converged towards Lu Li.

Just like when he absorbed the abyssal pollution from Langgan.

After Gustott disappeared from Lu Li's sight, only a piece of Nibelungen remains, which had fallen into Nata along with Gustott, remained in its place.

"..."

"Lu Li, are you asleep?"

A familiar voice suddenly brought Lu Li back to his senses.

Opening his eyes, Lu Li found himself lying on Columbia's lap, who was looking down at him curiously.

The surrounding environment is the Silver Moon Garden.

The lovely moon spirits are busy with their own things, while Mela, who loves to draw, is sketching the scenes of the two of them together.

"I'm asleep."

Lu Li rubbed against his thigh, shifted to a more comfortable position, and then deliberately closed his eyes.

"Great, then I can sing for you."

"Dormi cara columbula,O columbula mea..."

Columbia sang softly while gently stroking Lu Li's head.

Lu Li lay comfortably.

Ah, what a nostalgic feeling, lying on the little pigeon's lap...

Looking up, we see each other; looking down, we are helpless...

Hmm? Did it come back...?

Lu Li tentatively reached out and poked Columbia's chest through her clothes.

Suddenly touched, her sensitive body caused her to lose her breath halfway through the song, forcing her to stop singing.

"...Lu Li bullied me!"

Columbia covered her chest with her hands and puffed out her cheeks.

"Ah, sorry little pigeon, my hands just got itchy, hehe~"

Lu Li stuck out her tongue sheepishly, then immediately sat up and hugged Columbia to comfort her.

"Phew~"

"Is Lu Li's hand still itching?"

Columbia, held in his arms, rested her chin on Lu Li's shoulder, smiled, and gently blew a breath into his ear before whispering a question, her face close to his.

……

"Lu Li... what's wrong?"

Inside the rest room near the headquarters of the Olympic Arena.

As everyone gathered around Lu Li, who had been carried back by the Golden Flame Winged Dragon Tyrant, Paimon couldn't help but ask him with concern.

"His soul has fallen into a deep sleep, likely due to absorbing too much abyssal power."

Cetalli examined Lu Li on the bed, then spoke in a serious tone.

"When that magic circle absorbed damage for the warriors on the front lines, it also transferred the abyssal corruption they were suffering from."

"Furthermore, having absorbed all of Gustott's abyssal power, his body is now like a water-filled balloon, ready to explode at any moment."

Capitano, standing to the side, also spoke in a very serious tone.

"I just tried to purify the abyss from Lu Li's body, but it had no effect at all; the amount was too enormous..."

Ying shook her head at this moment.

She possesses the ability to absorb the abyss for purification, and theoretically, she can absorb an extremely large abyss, but in reality, she is currently unable to do so.

"But Lu Li himself possesses the power to purify the abyss; he could even resolve the pollution from the World Tree in one go. Surely he can handle these things?"

Looking at Lu Li, who was wrapped in dragon wings and unconscious, Paimon couldn't help but touch his head and say worriedly.

"The prerequisite is that Lu Li has to wake up..."

Ying shook her head. She felt that Lu Li's power to purify the abyss was much more effective than her own, but the current problem was that Lu Li had fallen into a coma.

"ah……"

Nuoxin leaned close to the bed, having to stand on tiptoe to barely see it, and let out a sad sound.

Apep stood silently to the side, seemingly deep in thought.

"This is... Moonlight..."

Outside the council chamber, the Olympic Arena was engulfed in a festive atmosphere.

Lu Li's dangerous situation was temporarily concealed, so to ordinary people, they had just achieved a great victory and driven away the abyssal enemy that had plagued the Nata ley lines for thousands of years.

Moreover, the "hero's protection" spared everyone from the suffering of war, and during the full-scale invasion of the Abyss, apart from the warriors who were injured at the beginning, the total number of casualties was zero.

Such a victory is even more inspiring than a resurrection poem about the dead being able to rise again.

……

Although Lu Li's condition was not Abyss Erosion Syndrome, Capitano still took out the medication for treating Abyss Erosion Syndrome and gave it to Lu Li.

However, this attempt was not very effective, and Lu Li remained unconscious.

Late at night, Ying stayed at the headquarters to take turns looking after Lu Li.

Looking at Lu Li, who was curled up on the bed like a "little Dulin," with his wings wrapped around himself, Ying sighed.

"You're just a jerk who always tries to be a hero..."

Then Ying stood up and went to close the window and draw the curtains.

However, just as she blocked the moonlight shining on Lu Li from the window, a gust of wind suddenly blew by.

Ying subconsciously turned around and saw a small white creature emerge from Lu Li's body.

It was a little sprite as bright as moonlight, with its eyes closed quietly. It had an inverted crescent moon symbol on its forehead, ears that looked like rabbit ears standing upright on its head, and "hair" that looked like twin ponytails but wings hanging down on both sides of its head. A crescent moon-shaped decoration floated behind its head.

Its hands are adorned with long, flowing sleeves, giving it the graceful bearing of a lady.

"You... emerged from Lu Li's body?"

"Could you be... Lu Li's soul?"

Seeing the suddenly appearing little white creature, Ying asked in confusion.

"?"

The little guy clearly tilted his head slightly.

But soon, it flew over and took Ying's hand.

"You mean...you want me to go with you?"

Ying followed it uncertainly until she reached the bedside.

The little guy then released Ying, and a ray of moonlight shone on his body.

Ying subconsciously raised her hand to cover her eyes.

When she came to her senses, she found herself in a courtyard filled with Moonflowers.

The little white creature flew to Ying, circled her once, and then flew towards the huge, moon-shaped white boulder in the courtyard.

Upon seeing this, Ying immediately followed.

Then, Ying saw Lu Li making out with Columbia.

And the two of them were... disheveled!

Although not naked, the clothes were very disheveled, indicating what had happened.

"?"

Ying tilted her head to the side.

We were so worried about you outside, and you're here eating nonsense?

"Did you bring me here hoping I would take Lu Li back?"

Ying looked at the little white creature that had stopped beside her and asked a question.

"?"

Upon hearing this, the little white creature tilted its head, a question mark appearing on its forehead.

However, it seemed to have thought of something soon, and immediately nodded its head before flying towards Lu Li and Columbia.

Ying immediately followed, and at this moment Lu Li and Columbia finally separated, a crystal-clear thread breaking off from the corner of their mouths.

Lu Li took the opportunity to push Columbia's shoulder, causing her to fall onto the moonstone.

"Lu Li...someone's here..."

Columbia pushed against Lu Li's chest with both hands, her face slightly flushed, and whispered a reminder.

"?"

Lu Li paused, immediately turned his head, and his gaze met Ying's, who had just stopped and was about to turn around and run away.

"Hey! What kind of abyssal monster dares to impersonate my dearest friend, the Traveler! You're asking for it!"

Lu Li immediately shielded Columbia behind him, speaking angrily and embarrassedly!

He had only made love with Columbia three times here when he was interrupted...!

I've fought wars my whole life, can't I enjoy myself a little?

fluorescent:"?"
