He changed Tiwat

How come neither Nathan nor Paulenka discovered her identity?

Is the problem with Nathan, or with Paulenka? Or are they both?

Ha, men really are all useless.

But no matter what the problems are, this is the Fatui's Evil Eye Factory, her territory.

“You don’t seem to understand the situation… The Mondstadt people may see you as a hero, and you may think you’re a hero, or even see me as some kind of female executive of a dark organization…” Natashika said slowly, her tone becoming increasingly sinister, “But I love this role… I love trampling on you self-righteous guys.”

She slightly raised her hand, and the "water mirrors" surrounding her subtly adjusted their orientation, each mirror facing Ying. The fool soldiers guarding the area received the signal and drew their weapons, ready to use force.

"You didn't understand the situation."

A perfect smile bloomed on Ying's face.

"I'm not here to be a hero..."

"I'm here to beat you up."

Great, we can settle both old and new scores together.

Xingqiu, who had been ignored all along, sighed helplessly. "Sigh, I knew it would turn out like this."

She actually wanted to get closer to those experimental tables. If possible, she'd even like to steal the reagents from the researchers…

Forget it.

Let's start the fight.

"Could you make them run a little faster?"

Kanoin urged Manyo somewhat impatiently.

Paimon has been resting on the cliffs southwest of Bayun Island for a long time. That should be the location of the Fools' Evil Eye Factory. Han Fulai and the other two have probably already infiltrated it.

However, their support troops were still several kilometers behind.

This was, of course, to avoid being discovered by the Fools, but in doing so, they wouldn't be able to arrive in time if anything went wrong inside.

Wan Ye smiled bitterly: "Not everyone has the Eye of God like you and me."

The two wind-wielding men ran ahead as fast as the wind, while the rebel soldiers following behind suffered greatly.

Speaking of which, the squad dispatched by Xin Hai is the most elite "Swordfish" squad in the army. Every member is a samurai with martial arts training, and their marching speed is much faster than that of ordinary soldiers.

"Speaking of which... being so impatient is unlike you."

Manyo gave Kanoin a meaningful look.

He also remembered that Kanoin used to say, "It's better to leave patrolling and arresting to the capable ones. Detectives have limited energy."

A detective's mission is to solve mysteries and reveal the truth. Once that step is done, the detective's mission is complete. Given Kanoin's personality, he would never get involved in such troublesome arrest operations.

Now, this detective, who's good at shirking his duties, is the first to rush in, more anxious than anyone else.

Kanoin pursed his lips: "I really wish I were the one in there right now... If I were, I would already be punching those guys in the face."

"Why?" Wan Ye asked curiously.

He remembered that Kanoin was not a person who liked to use violence.

“Because beyond the truth, there may be something even more important,” Kanoin replied.

The moment a detective accepts a crime case, it means something bad has already happened. No matter how the perpetrator is punished afterward, it cannot change the fact that someone has already been harmed.

Just as no matter how skilled a doctor is, they cannot cure an injured person and then pretend nothing happened to tell them, "Look, your wound has healed, just like you were never injured."

Every day afterward, whenever the injured person saw the doctor, the clinic, or the surgical scars on their body, they would think of the injury they had suffered.

The inability to prevent patients from getting injured is a doctor's helplessness.

The inability to prevent crime is the detective's powerlessness.

Kanoin hoped to escape this powerlessness.

Therefore, we must cut off the source of evil.

The source of this series of crimes on Ba Yun Island is the Fools.

It is the collection of all sins floating in the world, like a huge black shadow that obscures the sky, high above, coldly looking down on the beauty of this world, and then trying to destroy it.

Manyo saw that Shinoin clenched his fist.

“I want them to understand that those who surrender to darkness will never have peace.”

Chapter 126 Scattered Soldiers Again [4k]

I'm here to beat you up!

As she uttered these words, Ying already had her sword in hand and lunged at the "Hidden Mirror Lady" opposite her.

This is the laboratory where the Fools create "living samples," essentially the heart of their factory, and its importance goes without saying. Such places are usually heavily guarded.

Just because you can't see it now doesn't mean it's not there—there are two more doors on the left and right sides of the laboratory. Those researchers just now carried the equipment through those doors. Ying guesses that there should be quite a few guards hiding inside those doors.

As the captain of the "Swordfish Squad 2," Ying did learn a few things during her brief battlefield career, such as the "decapitation tactic" most commonly used by the elite resistance squads. Han Fulai had already demonstrated the principle of "capturing the leader first" to Ying during the Battle of Meizuina.

No matter how many troops the enemy still has hidden, as long as their commander is captured in advance, the troops without their leader will be a disorganized mess.

At the same time, Xingqiu summoned her sacrificial sword and turned to slash at the Fool soldiers behind her.

If Ying is the spearhead of the charge, then she will act as a solid support, protecting the backs of her teammates.

No words are needed for communication; that's what tacit understanding is.

Ying's seemingly petite body actually contained a terrifying explosive power. Running at full speed, she was faster than a galloping horse and pounced on Natashika in just two seconds.

Faced with the sudden attack of the blond traveler, Natashika remained calm and recited the spell almost as soon as Ying made a move.

"The Moment of Mirror-like Purity!"

A triangular prism suddenly appeared behind Natashika.

Natashika leaped lightly and disappeared into the mirror.

Ying's sword light shattered the mirror.

The next second, Natashka appeared in the mirror from a distance of about ten meters away.

This is the short-range spatial teleportation that the Fools' sorcerers rely on for survival and protection. Although it can only be activated once in a short period of time, activating it once gives her enough safe distance.

Only then did the researchers manage to utter a cry of alarm: "Guards! Defend against the intruders!"

Upon hearing the shouts, the Fools soldiers who had been waiting in the rooms on both sides immediately poured out, numbering in two small squads.

The power balance on the field instantly shifted to ten to one.

"I let you go last time in Mondstadt, but this time, you won't be leaving here alive."

Natashika coldly declared her intention to kill.

The Fools are an organization that values ​​strength above all else.

The representatives of the Fools, Her Majesty's executives, are ranked according to their strength.

Natashika, who rose to the position of Palace Supervisor at the Evil Eye Factory and became a regional manager overseeing hundreds of subordinates, was certainly no pushover.

Aside from absolute loyalty, excellent management skills, and sufficient ruthlessness, one's own strength is the foundation of everything.

Without a doubt, Natashika is the top person in the Inazuma area's naval forces, second only to the executive officer.

It can be said that the moment Ying's surprise attack failed, she had already lost the opportunity to capture Natashika.

Natashika brought her five fingers together, forming a prism-like shape with her palms facing Yingmei.

"Water shimmers and breaks the mirror!"

Four polarizing prisms appeared from the void, surrounding Ying from all sides.

Natashika clasped her hands.

"The Prison of Bitter Water!"

Aquamarine lotus petals rose from beneath Ying's feet, forming an elemental cage.

She had once defeated Ying in front of the Cathedral of the West, and now she possesses even stronger magic and a more powerful Evil Eye.

This water prison move is considered the signature skill of "Hidden Mirror Lady". Once an opponent is caught in the water prison, they will have no chance of escaping.

Past experience told her that Ying would either suffocate in the water dungeon or die from the swords and spears of the Fools' soldiers before she could suffocate.

But she didn't know that Ying was a "Descendant" who could create her own destiny.

For Ying, there was never anything predetermined.

The moment the water prison closed in, Ying's bladeless sword lit up with the light of wind.

"The wind is surging!"

What should have been a large-scale, wide-range attack, the Wind Tornado, was confined to a small area within the sword's blade by Ying, where it was wrapped, compressed, and then released.

The wind element, compressed to its limit, displayed terrifying power, like an invisible giant hammer of wind breaking through the water prison.

Before the Fools soldiers who were about to finish off the Fools could react, they were blasted away by the giant hammer of wind and instantly fell to the ground.

Ying's figure shot out of the water prison like lightning.

The water prison was breached, but Natashika's offensive was far from over—a huge column of water suddenly rose from the ground, engulfing Ying along with the guards who were trying to stop her.

After releasing the water prison, Natashica didn't expect her subordinates to finish her off; instead, she immediately took the hit with "Tide of Dependence."

This is a water elemental area-of-effect spell, considered a standard combo for "Hidden Mirror Lady"—first, use "Bitter Water Prison" to restrict the enemy's movement, then release the "Tide of Attachment" AOE spell to kill the enemy in the water prison.

As for those subordinates who were affected... Her Majesty the Queen will remember their sacrifice.

For the human body, being hit by a high-intensity water jet is no different from being struck by a sledgehammer. The Fool soldiers caught in the blast didn't even have time to cry out before they passed out, and many of them died on the spot from ruptured internal organs.

But Natashika's real goal was not among them.

As the water jet fell, Natashka saw only a cylindrical stone pier left in the same spot.

That was Ying's "Starfall Sword".

The instant the water column rose, Ying thrust her sword tip into the ground, creating a small celestial object in the nick of time, which just barely blocked the impact of the tide.

The sound of wind breaking came from mid-air, along with the roar of a thousand birds.

"Thunder Shadow Sword!"

While in mid-air, Ying's long sword had already slashed three times.

A thunderclap from a foreign land, a swift shadow like lightning.

Three bolts of lightning shot towards the "Lady Hidden in the Mirror".

"...Rippling light refraction!"

Natashika spun around and leaped into the air as well. The three polarizing prisms surrounding her spun with her body, blocking the three bolts of lightning.

She can manipulate a total of seven "water mirrors," four for attack and three for defense.

Having sufficient defensive capabilities around at all times was a good habit of hers, and this good habit saved her life.

The lightning collided with the prism, and both were annihilated.

Natashika was almost drenched in a cold sweat—the three elements! She actually possessed the power of the three elements!

It should be noted that even a powerful witch like the Executive Officer "Lady" can only manipulate two elements.

In fact, most executives only possess the elemental powers of their own God's Eye and Evil Eye, and they also have to bear a huge burden for them.

For example, "Young Master" Tartaglia cannot activate the Thunder Evil Eye when using the Water-attribute Eye of God's power, and "Lady" cannot manipulate flames while activating the Ice-attribute Evil Eye.

However, Luminous can switch between the three elemental powers of wind, rock, and lightning without any hindrance. She can even use the wind element to accelerate while creating rock artifacts and then unleash lightning...

What kind of monster is this?

The current Ying is completely different from the Ying who was ambushed and defeated by her back then.

How long has it been? Half a year? How could she have become so strong?

Damn it, the intelligence needs to be updated!

For the first time since the start of the battle, Natashika considered retreating.

She realized that she was no match for Ying.

"Go quickly..." she commanded the remaining researchers as she backed away.
