Man is the original god, the lawer of reason

Hmm... Considering that the core of the Herrscher of Thunder appeared in Inazuma where Ying was, could it be that the core of the Herrscher of Wind appeared in Mond?

However, although Wendy doesn't take much care of things, it shouldn't cause the Herrscher's core, Cholera Monde, and it's hard for Chen Luo to imagine Wendy becoming Fenglu.

And judging from the rumors heard in Liyuefang, the only news about Mond recently is that the Fengmolong Rebellion was unexpectedly put down.

"I originally came to the Abyss to track the whereabouts of the Abyss Cult. Although I didn't catch the Abyss Chanter...but it also made me accidentally come into contact with the purification facilities here, and the time that the monster left here is turbulent. , it may also disrupt the plans that the Abyss Religion is going to implement next."

What Dynesreb was referring to was naturally the purification device that Chen Luo and Lei Dianzhen found in the unnamed ruins, and what he was tracking earlier was probably Yuanshang.

According to the original timeline, the Abyss Church should use the technology of the Abyss in the unnamed ruins to try to amplify the effectiveness of the purification device of the ancient country in the near future, so as to realize the protection against the Qiuqiu people, the Black Snake Knight, etc. The purification of the cursed thing completes the road to the restoration of Kanria.

Of course, I am afraid that the vast majority of them will not be able to live until the end of the purification ceremony, and will die in pain.

"In a sense, I should thank you for indirectly helping me prevent future actions of the Abyssal Order. This is one of the reasons why I will tell you about Mond."

Dynes Reb said lightly.

"However, it's time for you to leave here—although the turbulent flow of time is gradually disappearing, the flow of time here is still faster than outside. The people waiting for you outside... I'm afraid they have been waiting for a long time."

"...bye by fate."

After Chen Luo said a word, he flew up unsteadily, and began to fly towards the upper layer of the rocky abyss.

Although there was not much remaining power, it was still enough for Chen Luo to fly out of the rocky abyss.

Because the turbulent flow of time is disappearing, the underground ecology of the layered rock abyss is gradually recovering.

The flying auspicious insects emitted a faint light, helping Chen Luo light up the way forward.

And the nameless ruins have also been restored to their original tattered shape, no longer as complete as they were a moment ago.

Everything seems to have never happened, and everything should have never happened.

……

Beyond the layered rock abyss, next to the seal of the rock key.

Raiden has been waiting here for a long time——

If she said she wasn't worried, it would be a lie, but through the core of the Herrscher of Thunder, there was a vague connection between her and Chen Luo, which at least made her understand that Chen Luo was still active below.

Because of Gan Yu's injury and the soldiers of the Qianyan Army and the Fools brought up from the underground mining area, although Ke Qing also wanted to stay and wait for Chen Luo to return, he had to fulfill his duties as a Seven Star and lead the stationed soldiers first. The soldiers transported all the wounded back—especially Gan Yu, whose body after liberation was so huge that it took up most of the labor force of the soldiers of the Qianyan Army.

"It's been a month."

Really sighed softly.

The time flow in the underground mining area and the outer layer is not consistent, and she has been waiting here for a long time.

Her body does not need food and drink, and she is not afraid of the wind and rain. It is no problem to wait here for as long as she wants.

"Speaking of which, wasn't my approach at the time a bit..."

That momentary beauty was also the first experience for her in thousands of years.

It is quite a bold approach.

In fact, she can choose many other methods to protect Chen Luo, but she will choose that method, and it is because of herself...

"What are you thinking about?"

"what……"

Xu Shi was distracted for a moment and let his thoughts drift to the horizon, he didn't even feel that he had come out from below and approached quietly.

She raised her head, looked into those familiar and gentle eyes, and responded with the same gentle smile and sincere words.

"……thinking of you."

Chapter 25 Aftermath of Gan Yu

"...I see. Are you saying that the vision of the layered rock abyss was arranged by Istaru?"

On the way back, it was already a vast moonlight.Because of some exhaustion, Chen Luo turned into a little Lei Slime, lying comfortably on Lei Dianzhen's head.

"There is no definite evidence...but I did receive something from her, but I don't know what effect it has yet."

Chen Luo seemed to have remembered something, and said to Zhen.

"By the way, really, you should have some relationship with Istaru, right?"

Shin, who can vaguely see and use the power of [time], cannot have nothing to do with the ruler of time.

Zhen tilted his head slightly, as if recalling a story from long ago.

"Well... I do have some connections with her, but I can remember very little about her."

"It's also because of... heaven's law?"

She hummed lightly.

The confinement imposed on her by the law of heaven is probably not only a limitation of strength, but her memory and past have also been sealed up.

"Although I can't remember clearly... But this winding way is quite in line with my impression of her style."

Really said with a smile.

"Compared to me, she is a more thorough peep into time. It is also what she likes to do to convey information in this way."

"...Is she still alive?"

Zhen stretched out his jade hand, hugged the ray slime on his head into his arms, and seemed to raise his head, looking at the endless starry sky.

"In this day and age, I'm afraid she no longer exists."

In other words, the traces of her that Chen Luo met all came from the long past.

"In any case, since she let me save you and left me a message, she must have her own considerations."

...I always feel like being led by the nose like this.

Seemingly seeing the thoughts in Chen Luo's heart, he really said.

"You don't have to think that you are a puppet on the stage. After all, the choices you have made so far are all achieved by your own mind."

What Istaru did, at most, was to add fuel to the flames at critical moments.

"I can stand here alive, which is the best proof that you have changed my destiny."

Really lifted the slime, and gently brought it close to his face, making an intimate contact.

"Eh?"

The sudden contact stunned Chen Luo for a moment.

"Well, well, in this way, the 'one more time' agreed before is settled."

After the sneak attack was over, Zhen held Chen Luo in his arms again.

"Wait, wait...! This doesn't count, this doesn't count, this look is too bad!"

Chen Luo moved restlessly in Zhenzhen's arms.

No, no, it's really a disadvantage to use the slime's body to feel it.

"Work harder in the future, little slime~"

Really chuckled, wantonly holding the little slime in his hand.

It was the cover of the moonlight that concealed Zhen's blushing face.

"Well, by the way, the one in the other core, when are you going to introduce me?"

"Hey, do you really know of her existence?"

Because Prometheus seldom came out, Chen Luo hadn't introduced to Zhen the consciousness of law that was born due to the intervention of the will of the collapse.

"Well~ I know everything I need to know, but if you ask the reason, what should I say, a woman's intuition?"

The blue core of law in Chen Luo's body shone lightly, and someone's consciousness seemed to jump briefly.

"Uh... Well, it should be said that she is not ready yet?"

"So it's a child who is afraid of giving birth?"

"Indeed. However, since she doesn't want to come out, I also intend to respect her idea. When she thinks it out on her own, I will introduce you to her at that time."

Chen Luo thought of something and asked.

"Really, since it's been about a month since I came out on the ground, how is Gan Yu and the soldiers who were injured before?"

"I think the soldiers are all fine, after all, they were only indirectly polluted by the environment, and they can recover after a short rest... But Gan Yu, because she was directly hit by the virtual tree skeleton, left on her body The power of time, I am afraid it will not be so easy to get rid of."

Chen Luo's heart skipped a beat, if Gan Yu suffered any injuries because of this, he would feel very sorry.

After all, it was a mistake in his decision-making that Gan Yu would be stabbed, although no one expected that Xu Shu Shenku would jump over Chen Luo who was in front of him and attack directly.

Seeing the worry in Chen Luo's heart, he really patted his head and said softly.

"Don't worry, I've done some treatment for her, and it shouldn't have any effect on her, um~ but, there may be some interesting sequelae."

"interesting?"

"You'll know when we arrive at Liyue Port, if my guess is right..."

Really smiled and said no more.

……

"...So, that's probably what happened."

Ke Qing said while holding his forehead.

One day after returning from the underground mining area of ​​Layer Rock Giant Abyss, Ke Qing brought Gan Yu to find Chen Luo and Lei Dianzhen.

And standing beside her, hiding timidly behind Keqing, is a little girl who only reaches Keqing's waist and is smaller than the girlish Lei Dianzhen...

The same blue soft long hair, the same dark red unicorn horns, accompanied by innocent and frightened eyes that day, um...

It cannot be said that it has nothing to do with Gan Yu, only that it is exactly the same - it is more than a little smaller.

"This is...Gan Yu?"

Chen Luo took a closer look, it wasn't some form-changing spell, but it really made her look a lot younger.

Because she was hit by Xushu Shenke's attack in the underground mining area of ​​the rock giant abyss before, although the wound cut by the sword blade has been healed by Gan Yu on the spot with the Qilin fairy method, after returning to the camp, Zhen has already treated her The corresponding rescue was carried out, but there still seemed to be some... sequelae.

The degeneration from the mature stage back to the juvenile stage seems to be caused by the imaginary number pollution left by the virtual tree skeleton.

Gan Yu's originally slender and beautiful body degenerated and returned to her childhood appearance.

Moreover, judging from her timid expression, not only her body, but also her mind and memory seemed to have returned to her childhood.

"I asked Dr. Baishu to take a look. However, it was not because of a physical illness. Dr. Baishu was very curious about how Gan Yu got into the current situation, and kept chasing me and asking, hey."

Ke Qing helplessly shook her head.

The fact that Bai Shu, the owner of Bu Bu Lu, is pursuing immortality is no secret to their seven-star senior management.

"You guys have ventured together with Gan Yu in the underground mining area. You should know more about her situation. Besides, Chen Luo, you also have some strange powers. I think... why don't you give Gan Yu to you first, and help her out?" Take care of her."

Chapter 26 Xiao Ganyu no longer needs to work!

"Hmm... There's nothing wrong with this, but it's better to be accompanied by people from Qixing, right?"

Chen Luo asked.

After all, Gan Yu, as the secretary in charge of Liyue Seven Stars, has been getting along with this group of Liyue executives day and night.

Compared to Chen Luo, a slime who has only met her a few times, and Zhen, the ex-governor who has hardly met, she should be more familiar with Qi Xing.

"Uh...Actually, Ningguang and I planned this way from the beginning. We planned to take Xiao Ganyu to places like Yujing Terrace, General Affairs Department, or Qunyu Pavilion to cultivate, but..."

Keqing touched her head in embarrassment.

"Perhaps because she was given too many tasks before, Xiao Ganyu now shows a very obvious dislike for these places where she has been working before. Moreover, she will be a little scared when she sees us Liyue Qixing. Forget it, at least she is willing to be close to me, and I have been taking care of her personally these few days. Before Gan Yu saw Ning Guang, she cried directly..."

Is this the so-called fear engraved in the depths of the soul... Although these are necessary and accustomed to Gan Yu as an adult, for Xiao Gan Yu at this moment, it is an unbearable weight in life up.

After all, no one really likes to work...!

Lei Dianzhen came to Xiao Ganyu's side and gently stroked her hair.

"Well, let's take care of her first."
