Back at the camp, Sora puts Paimon into the tent.

Seraphina lit up the bonfire and said, "Then the three of us will take turns keeping watch tonight?"

Xiao naturally couldn't let an ordinary human to keep watch for him: "No need, I'll take care of it."

"Xiao, let me keep watch with you." Kong would not let his friend keep watch alone. "Let Seraphina go back to sleep. She has to do experiments tomorrow." Although what they are doing now is a far cry from the original archaeological project, he still remembers that Seraphina is his employer.

Yesterday, two people took turns to keep watch to be vigilant against the Cult of the Abyss. Now that Xiao has joined the team, the employer no longer needs to do the chores himself.

Seraphina, who pretended to be a weak academic, didn't bother to refuse: "Then I'm going to bed. Good night."

Sleeping was not a physiological need for Seraphina. She lay in the tent, keeping her breathing steady, and listening to the conversation between Xiao and Kong outside the tent.

"A friend of Mond gave me some information. The leader of the Abyss Cult is called 'Princess', and there is also a 'Duke' besides him." The friend of Mond that Kong was referring to was Kaeya. After the Dragon Calamity ended, Kaeya once shared some information about the Abyss Cult with Kong.

This information was something Xiao had never come across before. The guardian Yasha, who was in charge of protecting Ogi Province, immediately asked, "Duke?"

"I have never met this mysterious duke, but I have heard of him a few times."

The first time I heard about it was from Kaeya. Kaeya said that although the Duke of the Abyss did not take action during the dragon disaster, he had been watching for some reason.

The second time was the reversed Idol of Filth. Dain said that the idea of ​​synthesizing the "Mechanical Demon Squid" should have come from the Duke of the Abyss who was full of strange ideas.

The third time was after dealing with the Ruotu Dragon King incident, Kong asked Zhongli about some things about Kanreya and the Abyss Cult, and Zhongli mentioned it. Zhongli's original words were "Perhaps that Duke will give you an unexpected answer", perhaps Zhongli knew that Duke of the Abyss.

The fourth time was at Yuanxia Palace, where Yuanshang mentioned that the Duke had entrusted him to investigate certain matters.

Seraphina: "..." She knew Yuan Shang was unreliable! She told everything! Her mouth is as big as Paimon's!

Seraphina pulled the quilt up to cover her head. Out of sight, out of mind. Out of hearing, out of mind. She chose to sleep!

Seraphina had a dream.

She dreamed again of the sky swept by disaster, the earth swallowed by mud, and the figure from the sky that was vaguely glimpsed between the blood and the fire...

Because the flower sea of ​​Teyvat was burned by the flames from the sky, a bewildered blonde girl walked through the flames of war, armored guards escorted civilians to take refuge, children in the wilderness were eaten by wild beasts, women with panic-stricken faces knelt on the ground to pray, the husband rushed to the gods with a sword in his hand to protect his wife, and a silver-haired girl with a spear protected several elderly people and rushed out of the encirclement of monsters, and finally fell in the beast tide with wounds and exhaustion...

The final scene in the dream froze in a scorched earth ruin, with a rock crystal butterfly landing on someone’s grave.

Seraphina's eyes snapped open.

The firelight reflected Xiao's figure outside the tent, and it seemed that it was already late at night.

Seraphina sat up, put on her coat, and huddled up with her knees hugged.

The amber bracelet on her wrist was so hot that it could burn her.

Seraphina couldn't remember how long it had been since she had a dream. She took out a new sprout of the earth vein and stuck it into the ground, covering it with her hand, and carefully separated a little abyss power and injected it into it.

The new shoots from the earth veins grow roots and extend underground.

Soon, the new shoots on the leyline withered. Seraphina gathered the dead branches.

The ground veins here are disrupted for some unknown reason.

Fortunately, the effect of the pool water will not be affected by the disorder of the earth veins, otherwise she would have to find a way to lure the Traveler and Xiao again.

She sat there until dawn, then Seraphina combed her hair and changed her clothes before leaving the tent.

"Good morning, how did you sleep last night?"

After a good night's sleep, little Paimon happily flew around Seraphina: "I slept well last night!"

Sora rubbed his eyes as if he hadn't woken up yet: "I had a dream yesterday."

Paimon immediately turned around and asked with concern: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Sora stammered, "I dreamed about my sister."

Seraphina handed Sora the towel for his face, "I've heard some things about you. You must miss her a lot, right?"

Sora nodded silently, and Seraphina patted his shoulder, looking at him with a slightly sympathetic look.

She was a little embarrassed to tell Kong that Ying couldn't remember him most of the time when she was in the abyss.

Before coming, Serafina had just brought Ying a new light novel by Inazuma, a new detective novel by Fontaine, and a big bag of Xumi desserts.

I bought ten servings of rose milk paste alone.

Probably only when listening to music late at night would Ying remember that she had a brother wandering outside, and she also had to exclude the nights when she stayed up late with Seraphina, eating snacks and reading novels.

Seraphina spent the whole morning struggling with the water. Sora took Paimon to look for clues to the core, while Xiao stayed by the water to watch Seraphina's experiments.

He threw crystallized bone marrow and elemental power. He also took out some unprocessed demon residue right under Xiao's nose, which made Xiao, who was so calm, twitch his eyelids.

Seraphina was too bold for a human.

Fortunately, the results are good.

Seraphina gave Xiao a bowl of water to drink, and the karma that was like a leech attached to his bones really dissipated a lot.

Karma has become a part of Xiao and cannot be eradicated, but it will not explode out of control either.

Seraphina breathed a sigh of relief. If this pool of water couldn't deal with the demon residue, she would be completely helpless.

This pool of water came from an inverted ruin that the Abyss Cult accidentally discovered in the underground mining area of ​​the Layered Rock Abyss. At first, Ying wanted to try to use this pool of water to see if it could solve the curse of undead.

Seraphina brought the pool water back to Kanreya and conducted many experiments. She finally concluded that the pool water could not remove the curse, but could suppress the remnants of the demon.

There are still many demon remnants on the land of Kanreya, and Seraphina wants to use this pool of water to clean up the land of Kanreya. But the power of the pool alone is not enough.

After repeated experiments, Seraphina set her sights on Yaksha and Traveler, who were associated with Karma.

Travelers from outside the world are very special. If they breathe black soil, they will be filthy, but if they breathe chalk, they will be pure. They have a magical purification ability. Yaksha is accompanied by karma, and the power of Yaksha can guide the traveler's purification ability.

So Seraphina used instruments to enhance the purification ability of the pool water, got a giant relic snake to dig a hole, placed two abyss monsters on the pool water, and lured Sora and Xiao to inject energy into the pool water at the same time. The reaction was carried out through Seraphina's conversion device, and finally the current pool water was obtained.

The next step is to deconstruct the composition of the pool water's power and try to replicate the energy of the pool water with the native power of Teyvat just in case.

Seraphina planned the next experiment, holding her cheeks and grinning.
