I'm in the Teyvat running group

"Greasy technique!"

"Greasy technique!"

"Greasy technique!"

At the moment of the sweep, Yunxiu immediately cast three Grease spells at the feet of the King Beast, but the legendary resistance took effect again, and the King Beast's speed did not decrease at all. Its huge body seemed to be unaffected by any Grease spells, and it charged straight towards the strongest knight in Mondstadt.

"Step back thirty meters!"

Qin retreated swiftly, but the beast immediately spread its wings and its tentacles flew up, launching a series of frenzied stabbing attacks at Qin!

"Yang Hua!"

Abedo raised his hand and Yang Hua rose slowly beneath Qin's feet. Qin raised her shield to withstand the six frenzied thrusts!

“-0！-0！-10560！-0！-52827！-36833！”

Yang Hua boosted Qin's temporary HP by nearly 50,000, and Qin also had a high AC of 42 and all resistances of 30, but she still took damage three times, and her HP dropped by a quarter.

But seeing that the legendary resistance of the king beast had been completely exhausted, Yunxiu immediately looked at Abedo again: "Control!"

Abedo immediately raised another [Immaculate Soil]. This time, however, the Tall King Beast was unable to break free of control again using its legendary resistance. Although its enormous body and legendary-level physique could not be trapped for long, what it lacked now was such an opportunity to attack.

"Focus fire on the joint!"

Diluc activated his Steel Flame without hesitation, wielding two greatswords with ease, as if they were dual daggers. He even swung Wolf's Graveyard, a weapon as small as a door panel, with a whirlwind-like motion.

The Blazing Steel's Melting Wings is undoubtedly the most outrageous warrior skill Yunxiu has ever seen, bar none.

Under this effect, Diluc not only doubles his damage, but also gains an extremely high burst every 5 seconds, allowing him to unleash 8 consecutive slashes with his dual blades. The dual blades can even unleash 40 to 50 slashes in just over 10 seconds. Before Jean, Kaeya, and Abelard's skills landed on the King Beast, Diluc only managed to deal damage for 11 seconds!

In just eleven seconds of frenzied output, Yunxiu only saw a dense array of numbers flash by above the King Beast's head.

The King Beast's energy shield dropped by 115 million points in an instant!

"Diluc, when facing Alegino alone, would indeed only be slightly at a disadvantage at most..." Even without Venti's damage boost and before leveling up, Diluc would at most be slightly inferior to a servant. In fact, in a battle between two people of the same level, it all comes down to who goes first; whoever goes first is more likely to kill the other. The main reason Diluc might not be able to win is probably because he has put all his skill points into damage output, and has almost no taunt-related feats or skills.

In other words, Diluc's stats might not be the strongest among these god-like characters, but the sheer destructive power of his skills is terrifying...

While the others were dealing damage to the Beastmaster, Diluc continued to unleash a frenzy of attacks, each strike dealing thousands of damage. Especially during his burst phase, he moved at a speed almost invisible to everyone, his blade dancing like a blur, decimating the energy shields.

Even though the King Beast wasn't fully crafted in the true sense, it still possessed considerable resistance.

After nearly 20 seconds of frantic attacks, almost depleting the energy shield, the monster stood up again and leaped into the air. Its energy core began to flash wildly, clearly indicating a combo of Ground Slam and Abyss Pulse.

"Step back 100 meters!"

Everyone, including Diluc, retreated more than 100 meters away. The Beast King leaped and delivered a terrifying blow, its massive body creating a gust of wind that, along with the dark energy ripples emanating from its body, formed a twisted and terrifying storm.

Even though they were not damaged by the skill from more than a hundred meters away, the storm stirred up by the king beast's earth-shattering strike still left everyone covered in dust. The storm swept across an area of ​​a thousand meters, revealing the full extent of this semi-legendary behemoth's combat power!

Before Yunxiu and the others could launch the next round of attacks, the King Beast suddenly raised its two mechanical wings, condensing an extremely intense ball of light. At the same time, multiple missile launchers under its wings suddenly opened, and twenty-eight missiles were launched in an instant, heading straight for Yunxiu!

"Yang Hua! Interrupt!"

Abedo instantly donned Yanghua on Yunxiu again, and Immaculate Soil rose once more, trapping the giant beast within the vast domain once more. A heavily armored knight in silver armor, his horse clad in a vest, charged forward with tremendous force. The chilling ice elements and lightning-infused warhorse created a streak of purple and white light, its speed twice as fast as the legion's charge!

The knight raised his greatsword high, ice elements swirling around it, and with a heavy swing, three massive frost attacks were unleashed!

A massive fan-shaped shockwave, over thirty meters wide and covering an area of ​​over fifty meters, surged forward along with his sword. The immense impact even forced the giant beast back half a step, and a chilling wind enveloped half of its body.

"-82276!"

"-90937!"

"-93102!"

Qin followed closely behind, unleashing two consecutive wind-pressure sword strikes that completely shattered the behemoth's energy shield, causing the Mega Beast to crash to the ground! Diluc and Abedo immediately followed up with their attacks, and the behemoth's health plummeted once again!

At the same time, Yunxiu was also doing his best to deal with dozens of missiles. Because he had already experienced a missile attack before, he had a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of damage. He tried to use flight techniques and the elusive steps to make the missiles straight, and then threw out a few lightning strikes, which directly shot down most of the missiles!

The remaining seven missiles changed direction and continued to bombard him. Yunxiu countered with two more magic missiles. The missile that was shot down exploded in mid-air, and the aftershock shattered another one. In the end, only four missiles remained and flew towards Yunxiu, hitting his shield directly!

The four missiles bombarded him, reducing his health bar by more than 120,000. Even with Abedo's Yang Hua and the several layers of Arcane Protection he had refreshed, his health still dropped by a third.

As he landed on the ground, the giant beast actually aimed its beam cannon directly at his landing point. A devastating beam of light suddenly shot out, and the huge energy beam ionized the air, creating distorted spatial ripples. It seemed to carry the king beast's anger and was eager to send Yunxiu back to the earth veins!

Startled, Yunxiu immediately placed her hand on the Unfettered Talisman!

"Guard the oath!" A figure shrouded in the phantom of a knight with fiery red hair rushed in, shoved Yunxiu aside, and raised his shield to block the point where the pillar of light would fall. The earth-shattering light seemed to be absorbed and smashed into her shield. The explosion created a huge wave, but it could not shake the powerful figure standing there, nor could it break through this peerless iron wall!

"-79050!"

Even with a temporary 20-point increase in resistance and the use of damage reduction skills, Jean's health bar was still significantly reduced by this shot!

Even though Abedo Yanghua had temporarily boosted her health by nearly 50,000, Qin's health had dropped to less than 70% since facing the King Beast. The most terrifying thing about the legendary beast was its continuous attacks and damage, which even Qin could barely withstand with the support of various buffs.

The only good news is that after those waves of attacks, the King Beast's health is now less than four million.

But aside from that final annihilation beam, Yunxiu felt that something was still wrong...

Chapter 54 The Mastermind Revealed

With a slight sigh of relief, Yunxiu continued to use her flight technique to command others.

As the group's teamwork became more and more proficient, the beast's health gradually decreased under their combined attack.

Aside from the fact that each legendary move is indeed difficult to stop, and in most cases one can only retreat or have Yunxiu and Abedo shield Qin so that Qin can take the damage, most of the time Yunxiu will constantly look at the status of the King Beast on the panel and issue commands to guide every key action on the battlefield.

Finally, the health of the Zhaozai King Beast was reduced to less than two million points, and Yunxiu saw out of the corner of her eye that Ying had finally arrived at the battlefield.

Meanwhile, the Treasure King Beast began to shrink its body into a ball on the spot. Although the Abyss Pollution Domain shrank, its concentration increased significantly. Twisted spiritual light swirled rapidly on its body, and the surrounding air seemed to be heated to an extreme by the huge overload point of the King Beast's energy core, as if the King Beast was about to explode at any moment.

"Enhance control!" Upon hearing the command, Abedo pulled out several bottles emitting a strange, distorted spiritual light and smashed them at his feet. A layer of immaculate soil containing a strange aura rose up, and the spatial binding force increased dramatically. Even the core of the King Beast began to show signs of calming down!

"Your teammate Abedo has used an alchemical potion to enhance his control effects by 100%, and extended the charging time of the Mega Beast by three seconds!"

"Ying!" Yunxiu shouted as she looked at Ying, who had just arrived, "Charge in and pierce her core! Only you can do that!"

Without hesitation, Ying stepped on two rock flowers released by Abedo and leaped into the air. A sharp longsword appeared in her hand, and a strange colorless spiritual light emanated from her body. Three pairs of strange golden wings could even be faintly seen on her back, making her more agile than a bird in the air. She was a powerful warrior who deserved to roam the starry sea!

"Crack!"

Carrying the force of falling from the sky, Ying poured all her elemental power into the longsword in her hand. Unaffected by the Abyss Domain of the Tall Beast, she directly pierced the beast's perpetual energy core with her sword, and then leaped back into the crowd.

"Awooo!!!!!"

As if it could feel pain, the king beast let out a strange roar, and its charging speed decreased significantly again, even exposing its energy core.

"Now! Focus fire!" Yunxiu shouted, charging towards the King Beast's energy core and unleashing a massive Rising Ring Fireball. Immediately following behind was Diluc, whose armor was ablaze. His two greatswords were engulfed in flames, twisting like phoenix fire. He raised his hand and unleashed a barrage of massive sword strikes, like a windmill!

Kaiya charged forward on his warhorse, several frosts enveloping the cracks, further reducing the overload on the energy core. Frost crystals even appeared on the high-temperature surface of the energy core, stirring up a large cloud of smoke. The entire torso of the dragon beast was enveloped in a massive amount of steam!

In an instant, the entire energy core was completely exposed to the King Beast's body. The spreading energy shield and runes were also destroyed by the continuous attacks of the group, and only the powerful abyssal force was still forcibly binding the energy core, and it even seemed to be about to unleash a huge amount of energy!

Ying leaped up again, her elemental power erupting from the sword in her hand, like a giant lightsaber, crashing down from the sky and striking the magic circle at the very center of the energy core with pinpoint accuracy!

The intense abyssal energy continued to interfere with Ying's mind and attacks, but in front of this traveler who roamed the starry sea, it was purified into completely pure and original spiritual power in an instant, just like ice and snow meeting the sun. Instead, it further gathered on her sword, helping her to unleash this ultimate attack!

Sizzle...

creak...

Sizzle...

Dense cracks suddenly appeared on the energy core, centered on the sword tip, and Ying directly drew the longsword and then thrust it repeatedly!

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, the core was pierced by Ying's final sword strike, and the entire energy core shattered completely. The massive body of the Twenty-Year King Beast crashed down, raising a cloud of dust. Its raging torso had almost completely lost its energy aura and emitted strange creaking sounds.

Countless twisted energies and points of light of various colors surged out at this moment, but were transformed into a pure light along the sword, impacting the gloom in the sky and tearing a large hole in the dark clouds of the entire battlefield!

Sunlight streamed through the large hole, illuminating the figure of Ying, who held the sword atop the energy core.

Because of the shattering of the energy core, the massive torso and the body forcibly glued together by alchemy began to fall apart, clearly revealing the crudeness and strangeness of the beast's construction.

The connections between the war machines are still relatively normal. The war machines of Canria were designed with coordinated combat in mind when they were manufactured. They not only have interfaces but also complete energy pipelines. Although they are still forcibly connected, the interfaces and energy are shared, so they can barely maintain their complete form after being destroyed.

The abyss creatures, dragon lizards, and combat mechanisms forcibly linked by magic and alchemy were far less pleasing to the eye. Only a portion of the abyssal creatures' pure cores remained; the rest exploded into a cloud of black mist and purple filth. The dragon lizard's peculiar flesh emitted a twisting sound, and several pieces of flesh were clearly visible to Yunxiu, obviously charred and reeking from the explosion and the overloaded energy core, emitting a nauseating stench.

If the giant beasts that were forcibly glued together to fight could be said to have a twisted beauty, then their appearance after being defeated was clearly starting to turn out to be disgusting.

However, no one was in the mood to think about these things anymore. After the fierce battle ended, everyone relaxed for a while. For some reason, a refreshing breeze blew across the battlefield, and the sky cleared up.

The eerie atmosphere that had been hanging over everyone's hearts was swept away, and sunlight shone on each person.

Especially Ying, who had just completely shattered the energy core and purified the surrounding abyssal pollution by unleashing enormous energy, stood beside the energy core with a resolute and courageous expression like a female war goddess, gazing at this strange monster.

Even standing still, a gentle breeze lifted her long golden hair and ribbons, and sunlight reflected off her face, casting visible rays of color that accentuated her resolute yet delicate features. Beneath her long eyelashes, her beautiful eyes shone even more brilliantly, like dazzling gemstones.

She tilted her head slightly, closed her eyes, and felt the warmth of the sunlight and the caress of the breeze, as if listening to the breath of peace returning to the world.

"What a nice view……"

Yunxiu was even a little dazed at this moment. How come she hadn't noticed that Yingmei was such a beautiful person in the game?

So, she and her brother are probably just siblings, right? But actually, I don't mind...

Feeling an indescribable sense of ease, Yunxiu didn't stop his mind from wandering; this was probably the most relaxed moment he had experienced in over a month.

While the losses were considerable, and Diluc and Jean will likely need to find rare materials and spend a huge amount of Mora to repair the armor, ultimately no one died as a result, and Mondstadt's losses were within acceptable limits.

While sending troops was indeed a huge cost, Mondstadt was spared the infiltration of the Dragon Plague and the Fatui, making it a very worthwhile deal from both a diplomatic and economic perspective. Moreover, in terms of achievements, they were much stronger this time than in the original timeline; the monster materials they collected alone could offset a large portion of the costs.

Although I touched quite a lot.

The only problem is that afterwards everyone might drink the entire cellar of Dawn Winery dry, but that'll be paid for by Grandpa Lu...

"I'll go back and call the knights to clean up the battlefield!" Kaeya shouted, then rode off. Diluc and Jean, having finally relaxed after the long battle, sat on the edge of the battlefield and closed their eyes to rest.

Even Abeldo, the usually elegant Son of Chalk, showed a relaxed expression. He walked to a clean, large rock, spread his legs, and sat down, completely disregarding his usual image. However, he still tightly gripped a reagent bottle in his hand, as if he were on guard against something.

"Is all this finally over?" Yunxiu chuckled, lowered the altitude of her flight spell, flew to Ying's side, jumped down, and carefully examined the remains left after the energy core was shattered.

Among them was a strangely shaped prop that was unusually hard. One end was a metal support that looked like a flower bud, while the other end was inlaid with a green crystal that emitted a strange light and made some strange sounds.

"What is this?" Ying picked up the strange object, and with a swirling light, the purification process was complete. The crystal shone so brightly that it almost blinded Ying. She asked Yunxiu in confusion, "Yunxiu, what is this?"

"Canned knowledge!" Yunxiu's eyelids twitched. This kind of thing was usually not a good thing, and a sense of unease immediately washed over her.

He immediately pulled Ying up, cast flight spells on the two of them, and rushed towards the direction where everyone was resting, shouting, "Prepare for battle!"

Snapped--

Snapped--
