Solstice Executive Officer, the start of the game is bound to the injustice system

"Ever since I was born, people have said that I am the second Great Cishu King, but I am not."

"I am just a little Lucky Grass King, a god who failed to respond to people's expectations... People call the Great Mercy Tree King the sun and compare me to the moon."

"My light could not illuminate the darkness of Sumeru, so I was imprisoned in the bottomless darkness."

Nasida stood in front of the ship and looked towards the unknown sky. At the end of it was the World Tree. If one had to choose a place to find traces of the Great Merciful Tree King, it would be there.

"I touch everyone's dreams in the dark and want to do what I can."

"It doesn't matter if no one knows, as long as you can see the innocent smiles on the children's faces, it's enough."

Nasida murmured to Su Ming, as if she was telling herself how strong she had been over the years. She had persisted for so long and was finally coming to an end.

When you meet Queen Daci Shu, you will definitely get the answer, right?

"You've done your best."

Su Ming looked at the increasingly clear outline in the distance and understood that that was where the World Tree took root. "The initial power is not determined by yourself, but the will to protect it is your own persistence."

Being weak is not a fault. Nacida did not get lost in the darkness, but still performed the duties of the moon and did her best to emit a warm glow.

Su Ming didn't want Nasida to disappear like this. If the world forgot the Great Mercy Tree King, not only the Great Mercy Tree King but also the Little Lucky Grass King would die at the same time, leaving only the Great Mercy Tree King Buyer.

And is Nacida like that still Nacida?

Death is not the end, forgetfulness is. Su Ming doesn't want that strong Nasida to disappear. This would be too pitiful. Those who were once strong in the darkness have all turned into bubbles, and the moonlight that has never stopped illuminating the people of Sumeru will eventually extinguished.

"World Tree..." A deep meaning flashed in Columbia's eyes, "The last time we met was in the last era."

"Have you ever seen the World Tree?"

"I probably haven't told you yet that I was once a fairy next to the throne. At that time, the World Tree was already responsible for recording history."

Columbia shook her head slightly. That was a long time ago, and the throne has nothing to do with her now.

The era she lived in has long since sunk into the depths of the World Tree, and perhaps the relevant history can be read from it. Unlike the burial of the long river of time, the World Tree is only responsible for recording.

This can be said to be one of the most important places in Teyvat. The World Tree is responsible for the fundamental laws of the world's operation. Once the consequences of disorder are unimaginable, slight changes will trigger huge changes that are difficult to predict.

Soon they came to the land in front of the World Tree. The colors here were all dreamy pink and purple. Columbia's expression was a bit complicated. If Lily of the Valley saw this kind of scenery, she would probably look back and forth carefully, but Columbia I just felt an unbearable weight.

She seemed to be able to hear the overwhelmed collapse of the World Tree.

Fortunately, they arrived. If they continued to delay, once the World Tree completely withered, it would bring about a horrific disaster that would sweep across Teyvat.

I'm afraid that will be a wave no less than the Cataclysm of Kanria.

Su Ming also felt a depressing atmosphere. The lawn near the roots of the world tree seemed to have lost its color, leaving only a lifeless gray.

"King of the Great Merciful Tree..."

Nacida closed her eyes. Although she couldn't see it, she could feel the warmth from the same source.

Su Ming lowered his head slightly and saw that the green lines on his arms seemed to come alive and swim, and there were faint ripples on the apparently windless lawn.

And an illusory figure quietly appeared under the World Tree at some point.

She has the same appearance as Nasida, but her eyes contain older wisdom.

"Long time no see, Su Ming," King Daci Shu smiled slightly and looked at Nasida again, "And Buyer, you have grown a lot too."

"It seems that a lot did happen 500 years ago," Su Ming spread his hands, "It's a pity that I have forgotten them all."

"Well, you told me."

King Daci Shu walked up to Nasida first, showed a gentle smile, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed her head, "I can finally meet you."

"King Daci Shu...what happened 500 years ago?"

Nacida didn't know the past, and she didn't know why the Great Merciful Tree King, the sun, suddenly disappeared.

The Great Merciful Tree King raised his head and looked at Su Ming, with a flash of emotion in his eyes, "It has been 500 years, and the taboos left behind are still eroding the World Tree."

"That was the end of the Kanria disaster. As the guardian of the World Tree, I must protect the World Tree from the erosion of forbidden knowledge."

"It was supposed to be like this, but in the final moments, I was consumed by forbidden knowledge."

The Great Ci Tree King looked at Su Ming again, "You should know very well that the pollution of forbidden knowledge is far from that serious. Originally, I could fully bear it, but it is mixed with the erosion of fate."

Su Ming's pupils shrank slightly when he heard the word fate. He didn't expect to hear news about fate here.

In other words, I didn’t expect that the disaster 500 years ago was inextricably linked to fate.

...

...

500 years ago.

"You don't need to apologize."

Su Ming stared at the Great Mercy Tree King whose cheeks were covered with blood-red lines, stretched out his hand to push her out of the range of the World Tree, and walked towards the World Tree calmly.

One step after another, no looking back.

The Daci Tree King raised his head weakly, the blood lines all over his body were fading rapidly, "Su Ming, you can't die yet..."

"Ok, I know."

Su Ming smiled softly and waved to the Great Ci Tree King with his back turned, "It is only my body that dies, but my soul is eternal."

"Your life force is about to come to an end. It's better to have a good sleep. I will come to wake you up in 500 years."

Su Ming's figure completely disappeared into the World Tree, and his body was instantly torn apart by the violent purple-red mist. However, a ray of firm golden light shot straight into the crown of the tree, instantly clearing the darkness within the veins of the World Tree.

The King of Daci Tree stood up holding the trunk of the tree, a faint glimmer of water flashed in his eyes, "I know how painful it is, but I still can only leave you to repair the world alone."

"sorry..."

The body of the Daci Tree King became smaller and smaller, and the consumption of life energy turned her into the size of a child and fell into an almost eternal sleep.

Even in a sleeping state, the Great Merciful Tree King still has to continuously inject life energy into the World Tree and try his best to save the World Tree.
