Chapter 13 Rescue
The people who came were none other than Renren Ryoyi, Kanno Apricot, and a group of lower-level shrine maidens from Renren Shrine.
Because of their small number and strong strength, their mobility was naturally good. So after they had a good rest and rushed here, they just happened to catch the Shogunate army defeating the Hill Chopper army at the mouth of the canyon.
Without saying anything, they came to the top of the canyon to watch the battle between the two armies. By the way, they also cleaned up some of the fleeing Hillilians. Then Ren Lian Lingyi sensed the place where the earth veins were congested above the canyon.
However, before Ren Lian Lingyi could enter the perception, something happened to the Shogunate army below the canyon.
Ren Lian Lingyi, who was awakened by the screams of the priestesses, saw that the Hilliel King smashed a warrior into a small pancake.
They didn't even have time to rescue them.
Seeing that the Hillichu King was about to rush towards several God's Eye Warriors and Kujo Makoto, Ren Lian Lingyi quickly took out his longbow and attacked with all his strength.
The arrows blessed with armor-breaking, magic-breaking, enchantment, elemental arrows, and gigantic arrows instantly transformed into huge lightning spears that nailed the Hilliard King to the spot.
Then Wudao's witch was worthy of being a rare martial arts master. She reacted quickly, and when Ren Lian Lingyi shot the arrow, she bungee-jumped with one hand's hook claw, quickly airdropped from the top of the canyon to the bottom of the valley, and then turned into a red and white phantom, charging at the Hill King and beheading him in one go.
The Hilichurl King had no chance to react and it was gone instantly.
Even when he died, he hadn't yet broken free from the restraints of the lightning spear, and he didn't even have time to activate the Hilliard King's iconic elemental shield.
But it was a good thing that this guy didn't use his shield, otherwise Ren Lian Lingyi and the others would be in big trouble.
It is said that the shield of the Hilichook Thunder King can provide high elemental resistance and physical damage reduction. If the Hilichook Thunder King opens the shield, even if these people can kill the Hilichook Thunder King, they will probably have to pay a heavy price.
After the death of King Leidou of Qiuqiu, the earth veins stabilized and the earth vein suppressing stones began to play their full role.
Next, Renlian Lingyi, Kanno Anzi and the miserable-looking Kujo Makoto handed over the task to each other, and Kujo Makoto began to lead his men to count casualties and set up camp for repairs.
The priestesses began to prepare for the ritual of combing the earth veins.
What happened next had nothing to do with Ren Lian Lingyi. As for combing the energy of the earth veins, almost anyone could do it as long as they were trained by the witch.
Soon the earth vein energy resumed flowing, and after confirming that there would be no problem of monsters spawned by the earth veins, the priestesses worked with the warriors to remove the earth vein suppressant stone.
After all, the area where the ground veins are congested on Renlian Island is not a serious place. The ground vein suppressing stones do not need to be here to suppress the ground veins all the time. Moreover, the ground vein suppressing stones are not easy to make, so they need to be recycled.
It is said that in some places where the earth vein energy is abundant, the earth vein suppressing stones are permanent, and the earth vein energy suppressed by the earth vein suppressing stones needs to be released every once in a while to kill the monsters condensed by the earth vein energy.
This is to regulate the flow of the earth veins.
Ren Lian Lingyi is currently sensing the flow of the earth's veins.
For the people of Teyvat, the earth veins are not only the mother of all things, but also the home of souls and all things. Except for some beings with obsessions, most living beings will return to the earth veins after death. They have some obsessions, but more of them are memories in their souls.
If these obsessions are strong enough and have a form to attach to, then these things will be called holy relics.
However, this is not the case for obsessions that are strong enough and exist in vain. These obsessions are called the resentment of the devil and the grudge of the devil. In Liyue, these things are called karma obstacles by the immortals. In short, they are not good things.
"Lord God, how is the earth vein now?" After the Wudao priestess finished the ceremony, she asked the Lord God Ren Lian Lingyi.
“Although it’s still a little murky, it’s generally back to normal and there shouldn’t be any more congestion in the short term.”
"But there are problems with the topography and magnetic field of this canyon. Over a long period of time, it will easily cause siltation of the earth veins. So I would like to ask if there is any solution here."
Although Ren Lian Lingyi could be considered knowledgeable, he really didn't know anything about things that he had not experienced or paid attention to, so he asked.
"It's not that there is no solution. All we need is a ground stone, but we only have one ground stone on Renlian Island. The only solution now is to station some foot soldiers here to clear out monsters at any time. The specific solution still needs to wait for a new ground stone to be transferred from Narukami Taisha."
"Is that so? Then let's apply." Ren Lian Lingyi made the decision.
The two chatted a little more about the working principle of the earth vein stone. Although Wudao's shrine maiden is a fighting faction among the shrine maidens, Kano Anko, who comes from a family of shrine maidens, is not lacking in knowledge about earth vein stone.
Anko Kano even said frankly that if she had enough materials, she could even make the earth vein stone herself. It can only be said that she is worthy of being a high-level priestess and is really versatile.
However, the core materials of the Earth Vein Stabilizer are Liyue's Candlelight-grade Night Stone and the extremely difficult-to-mine Stone Amber.
This world is not a game world. Yebo Stone is a very precious gem in the real world, and the Zhuzhao level is the rarest among the Yebo Stones. In Liyue, apart from some big businessmen who have run mines for generations, only some miners have it.
It takes a month for an experienced miner to mine a piece of complete amber of average quality, which shows how precious it is.
Therefore, among the seven countries, only Liyue, which is rich in minerals, can use the earth vein stone on a large scale within its own territory.
After all, Morax, who controls Mora, is really rich.
The priestess of Takeda had no idea how wealthy he was. She only knew that Morax paid for every banquet of the Seven Gods, and it was very easy for him. When other gods went, they only brought some local specialties. As for the poor Inazuma twin gods, it was said that they could not even raise enough money for a banquet of the gods.
Well, the above information comes from Fox Palace, a subordinate of Thunder God, so it should be very credible.
Anko Kano said that Lord Kitsunesai had once attended a side party of the Seven Gods Banquet and was very familiar with the other Seven Gods' followers.
The peripheral banquet is actually a banquet held by the followers of the Seven Gods when they are at the banquet.
Because the main venue is Liyue, most of the people who attend this banquet are immortals from Liyue. There are very few people from Inazuma's side who have attended the banquet, only Kitsunesaigumi and Torachiyo.
Then the two discussed how King Leidou of Qiuqiu appeared.
Finally, based on the analysis of geomancy, it was unanimously agreed that this King of Thunder was awakened from deep within the earth by the large amount of geomancy energy generated by the death of a large number of monsters.
Ley lines run throughout Teyvat.
It is naturally impossible for a barren land like Renlian Island to give birth to a powerful monster like the Hillock Thunder King. It is obvious that this Hillock Thunder King came from the earth veins of other regions.
This kind of flow across small areas is only possible deep within the earth veins.
All we can say is that they were unlucky and happened to encounter such a thing.
It would be more appropriate for a small monster to appear in the depths of the earth, rather than a Hillock Thunder King appearing directly like just now.
