Genshin Impact: I was robbed at the beginning and I hated being ranked third!

"This is really an interesting little guy. I didn't expect that he has the ability to swallow venom. No, it's not just about swallowing venom."

Elhaisen's eyes were fixed on the Swallowing Abyss Dragon Lizard until Cherno coughed twice, which brought his thoughts back to reality.

The Abyss-Swallowing Dragon Lizard seemed to be full and lay lazily on Ying's shoulder.

After drinking some water, Cherno slowly opened his eyes. Fortunately, his body was not that of an ordinary person.

"Ah, Deputy Madam, I deserve to die for letting you see my subordinate in such an embarrassing state."

"But please allow me to commit suicide after rescuing my master."

"If it weren't for us, the Lord wouldn't be in such a predicament."

Ying and Paimon looked at Cherno's self-blaming expression and quickly waved their hands.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, Cherno, Yang Ming will be fine."

"You don't have to commit suicide to apologize. It's common to encounter danger in secret realms. This is not your fault."

"Okay, now tell me what you learned."

Cherno then described how he reached the third floor, how he was ambushed and seriously injured by two monsters, and how Yang Ming appeared and rescued him and killed the monsters easily.

"In the last moments of my coma, I saw my ancestor go to the 4th floor. I don't remember anything after that. When I woke up, I didn't know how much time had passed."

"I survived for about 10 days with Ivan and my own rations. After that, there was really no food left, so I started trying to eat the bird's meat. I didn't expect that the bird's meat was poisonous, but I had no choice but to eat it in order to survive."

"After eating the bird meat, I could clearly feel the toxins flowing through my blood. For this reason, I could only enter a dormant state, reduce my vital signs to a minimum, and delay the spread of the toxins."

"I kept eating bird meat every three days when I was hungry, and I have survived until now."

Everyone looked at the bird, whose stomach was completely hollowed out. The surrounding flesh and blood were nowhere to be found, and due to being exposed to the air for a long time, the bird's flesh had rotted and maggots had grown on it.

They were about to vomit if they looked any further, so they quickly looked away. Cherno's toxins had been cleaned up, and Seno and Elhaisen went to clean up the bodies of the two monsters.

Ying prepared some medicinal porridge for Cherno. For now, Cherno could only stay on the third floor, and then they would continue to explore upwards until they found Yang Ming.

Ivan was also left on the third floor to prevent any unexpected situations. Ivan was the only one who could take care of Cherno.

Just as they were about to head to the fourth floor, Cherno called out to Ying and Paimon.

"Deputy Madam, you must bring the Master back. May the Queen's blessing be with you!"

Ying, Paimon, Elhaisen, and Senor nodded and stepped into the fourth floor. As soon as they reached the fourth floor, a heart-pounding breath came from the depths.

This breath was as if it was the gas exhaled by a prehistoric beast that was sleeping in front. According to the detection of the void, this gas contained a large amount of wild elements.

When Ying, Paimon, Elhaisen and Senor arrived at the depths of the fourth floor, they found only a huge golden lion with a mane and a horrifying blood hole on its forehead.

The bloody hole on the forehead was still oozing blood. I didn't expect that despite such a serious injury, the lion was not dead yet.

"This! What kind of creature is this? It's fine despite being so badly injured!"

Paimon felt incredible, but apart from the horror of the wound, the sound of the lion's breathing made them even more nervous.

Glancing around, he saw traces of battle everywhere, charred areas from lightning strikes, and the lingering scent of ice.

"This blood hole was caused by Yang Ming, right? Why couldn't Yang Ming get rid of the lion?"

Just as Paimon was puzzled, a voice echoed throughout the hall.

"You little guy, you look so cute, but why do you keep talking about fighting and killing?"

"I am Hermanubis, the guardian of the mausoleum and one of the seven sages of the Red King!"

"After my king made a mistake, I transformed myself into a griffin to guard the tomb and protect my king."

"Go back, you ignorant pilgrim, or defeat me!"

Hermanubis stood up with difficulty, and as he stood up everyone saw the scars on his body, covered with lightning and frost.

Especially the bloody hole on the forehead, which was still bleeding.

"Wait a minute! We were just talking fine, why are we going to fight all of a sudden?"

"Also, you're covered in wounds now, can't you just pretend to be asleep and let us pass?"

It was not until this moment that Hermanubis stood up completely. The griffin means two wings, and only the stump of one of Hermanubis' wings remained.

"I am Hermanubis, the steadfast guardian of my king... It is my duty to let you pass."

"As long as this body exists, the glorious civilization will not be cut off."

Paimon was frightened by Hermanubis's crazy appearance and quickly hid behind Elhaisen and others.

"The glorious civilization you spoke of has long been buried in the sand. All that remains is the afterglow of the setting sun."

"Ahmar, the ruling god of the desert. No matter how glorious he once was, he is now just a few lines in a book."

"What are you guarding, the mausoleum or Akhmal?"

Elhaisen stood up and preached to Hermanubis. Elhaisen's words made Hermanubis stunned.

"Yes... I am guarding Ahmar, not a mere mausoleum. But... my god is no longer here."

Hermanubis's already exhausted body completely disappeared into smoke, and a light blue figure walked out from the ashes.

This figure should be described like this: his aura is as majestic as a rainbow, his eyes are dignified and kind, and his body is small yet tall.

"What's wrong? You were scared by the monster's body just now, are you scared by the human's body now?"

"We meet again. I am Hermanubis, one of the Seven Sages of the Red Pillar. I am sorry for scaring you just now."

"But from the looks of you, you don't come here for money. Can you tell me your purpose?"

The Hermanubis in front of him and the griffin monster just now are completely two different people.

"We are here to rescue him. He is trapped in here. He has a small braid and often holds a spear and an ice-blue sword in his hands."

After listening to Ying's description, that figure appeared in Hermanubis's eyes.

After transforming into a monster, its own will will also be transformed into a monster, and it will regard all creatures in front of it as enemies.

Naturally, he attacked Yang Ming, but he didn't expect that compared to himself, he was the monster.

His physical strength is no less than mine. No matter how serious the injury is, he will recover and then fight with me.

Until he completely defeated me. When he defeated me, I could clearly feel the aura on him becoming stronger and stronger, as if he was using me as a whetstone.

"I have seen the person you are looking for and have fought him before. Compared to me, he is a monster."

"I have seen many strong men who have honed their martial arts to the pinnacle. But no one can reach his level. Fighting against her is like fighting against a god."

Ying and Paimon looked at each other and thought the same thing in their hearts.

"Isn't that just making an enemy of the gods? Not to mention how many gods are standing behind him, just think about using the Thunder God as a sparring partner. No one dares to do that."

Ying and Paimon looked at Hermanubis with some pity, and Hermanubis was confused by their looks.

"Okay, let's end this topic first. I don't have much time left."

"I wonder who is in power in the desert now? Of course, no matter who it is, please pass on the torch of civilization."

"There is no danger on the sixth floor. That is the library of the mausoleum. It contains all the history and civilization of the Red King civilization."

"They should not stay in the dark mausoleum. They should be known by the world. Please take this out and don't let the fire of the desert die out."

"Uhmanubis, my body is of no value and can only be your reward. This is an unpaid commission. It is up to you whether you do it or not. But please help the desert so that civilization can continue."

As he spoke, this wise man, who had never bowed to anyone except the gods, bowed deeply to them.

With the end of the ceremony, Hermanubis completely disappeared on the fourth floor. Ying and Paimon looked at each other, and all their words turned into sighs.

"Ah, what's going on? I told you that it's up to you to accept or not, but he has already entrusted us with his life, so I can't help you."

Paimon spread his hands helplessly, and the Abyss-Swallowing Dragon Lizard also playfully raised a paw to show his agreement.

So they continued to move forward and headed for the fifth floor. The fifth floor only had some simple mechanisms and they passed it easily. But when they arrived at the sixth floor, the situation was not as Hermanubis had said.

This is indeed a library, but the cold and gloomy air around them makes them feel uncomfortable. Books should be stored in a cool and dry place, but the cold and humid air around them is obviously not suitable.

"What's going on? Have we been deceived by Hermanubis? The sixth floor is not as safe as he said."

Paimon was a little panicked, and the scales on the back of the Abyss-Swallowing Dragon Lizard stood up, and he looked around vigilantly.

"Don't be so nervous. The original picture of the warm and moist figure has been found. He must be the person you are looking for."

Following the direction of Elhaisen's finger, Ying and Paimon saw a figure standing in front of a bookshelf. This person was none other than Yang Ming.

He was holding an open book in his hand and standing there motionless.

Just as they were about to approach, the Swallowing Abyss Dragon Lizard roared at Yang Ming! Snap! The book in Yang Ming's hand closed, and thunder mixed with icy spikes shot towards them!

Ying, Elhaisen, and Senor quickly summoned their weapons, dodged the thunder and blocked the ice spikes. The Abyss Dragon Lizard activated its devouring power and guided the power of thunder into its mouth and swallowed it.

"At the same time, Senuo also leaned against the wall and jumped in front of Yang Ming. He chopped Yang Ming in half with one shot."

Yang Ming, who was split into two, quickly shrank and finally turned into pages of paper. Then thunder and ice spikes appeared behind them.

This strange scene made them frown, and Paimon even spoke out.

"What's going on? Why are there so many Yang Mings?!"

Elhaisen looked at the papers on the ground and Yang Ming who appeared in front of him.

"Don't think about it, these are all fake. These are all made from books. Hermanubis should not have lied to us. 500 years ago, the sixth floor should have been just a library."

"But the Red King's Mausoleum was built by the Red King after all. Some of its buildings were inevitably contaminated with the power of the demon god. These demon god powers gradually transformed into demon god residues after the death of the Red King."

"The book is stained with demonic residue. It should have transformed into a demon-like being."

"This monster's true strength should not be very strong. Their ability should be to imitate the moves of the strongest person they have seen."
