Chapter 8: The Eye of Legend
After seeing what was under the ground, Gu Sanqiu flew away without looking back.
That guy must have been a bandit or a warlord in his lifetime, or at least a military leader , otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get such a set of equipment.
As for the Yin Huojian that attacked the Giant Shadow Sculpture, the awakening of this guy makes sense given that there are several of his former bodyguards among the zombies, right?
Or rather, he forced himself to think that it made sense, convincing himself that it would take much more courage to run away than to stay where he was.
After arriving at a safe place, Gu Sanqiu gently put Hu Tao down, then picked up the giant shadow eagle and checked its injuries.
"Well, the Yin Fire should have dissipated now, but it is easy to cause abnormal reactions in wounds in a place like this."
Gu Sanqiu crushed another precious pill to stabilize his injury, then took out a bandage to bandage it more carefully.
"Sanqiu, my body hurts so much, I feel so sad..."
(つД`)
Hu Tao leaned over, with half of her face resting on Gu Sanqiu's shoulder, her eyes blinking with an expression that said, "If you don't care about me anymore, I'll cry in front of you."
Gu Sanqiu pointed his index finger at Hu Tao's forehead and said, "Don't act cute in front of me. You are not injured. I have noticed this."
"(ˉ▽￣～) Tsk～～, what a boring man."
Gu Sanqiu's forehead was bulging with veins: "So, this interesting girl, can you tell me what on earth you are doing?"
"You're lucky I brought the Wings of Wind with me this time. If I didn't have a disposable wind-catching bottle, we wouldn't be able to outrun that horse."
Being well prepared is indeed a good helper for your journey.
"No, I didn't expect this matter to become so serious."
Walnut said seriously: "We originally thought it was just a simple corpse disaster, but we didn't expect it to be such a big one."
"Corpse?"
"Well, Wuwang Slope is the 'intersection'. This is no secret among people of status and power. There are always some people who want to use various methods to find the so-called entrance and steal the secrets and wealth of another world."
"The zombies move around unconsciously. Some people hope that they can find the entrance through the instincts of the dead. Before Liyue was pacified, some people even killed civilians indiscriminately and used the souls that had just left their bodies to guide them."
"Tsk, what a feudal society!"
Gu Sanqiu clasped his hands together and bowed, "Uncle Zhong is awesome!"
"So, you think this is not a man-made corpse disaster, but a product of natural mutation in this place?"
Gu Sanqiu wanted to find out the details so that it would be much easier to deal with.
After all, there is a difference between dealing with a guy bitten by a spider and dealing with a guy injected with serum.
"Although we cannot rule out the possibility of natural occurrence, it is highly likely to be man-made."
really.
Gu Sanqiu understood in his mind that if the wealth of Liyue Harbor made ordinary people in the world excited, then the value of Wuwangpo was what made some people with ulterior motives have great ideas.
"I just took a look. Even if it's the Qianyan Army, it will take a price to deal with a guy of that level."
Gu Sanqiu began to check the inventory in his backpack: "I also know the rules of your Wangsheng Hall, so can you get some helpers from outside now?"
"All the guest officials are busy, otherwise this operation would be much more convenient."
Hu Tao looked distressed. "There's Qingce Manor next to us, and we don't have any helpers above our level. We can't possibly go through the Stone Gate to the Adventurer's Association in Mondstadt to post the bounty."
Gu Sanqiu sighed: "In other words, the requirement to find helpers in a short period of time is invalid?"
"Hehe, don't you still have me here?"
"Stop, stop. When I came here, I didn't expect an incident of this magnitude. We can report this to the Seven Stars and let them solve it."
Gu Sanqiu scratched his hair and said, "Well, there is actually another way to increase our combat power, but it will take some time, and you have to help me protect the law."
After saying that, Gu Sanqiu took out a dark golden gem. In the center of the gem, a mysterious gray-yellow pattern was flashing with a little light.
"Oh, this isn't the one from your Gu family, the one..."
"Yes, this is the eye that has been passed down from generation to generation in my Gu family, just like the Homa Staff in your Wangsheng Hall."
Gu Sanqiu casually took out a food box and threw it to Hu Tao: "Help me protect the law, I want to try to attract the power of the Eye of God again."
"Oh, come on, Sanqiu!"
"That thing is for you to eat. It has the effect of healing your injuries."
Gu Sanqiu sat down cross-legged. When the previous Gu Sanqiu was still alive, he was unable to use the power of the Eye of God. Now that he has successfully united his two souls into one, there should be no problem in this regard.
"The ancestors witnessed it, the immortals and gods witnessed it."
On the Heirloom Eye, the gray-yellow lines began to glow and gradually occupied the entire gem, turning it into an inconspicuous lump of earth.
"What exactly is the definition of an element?"
For Gu Sanqiu , it is common sense that the seven elements constructed the continent of Teyvat. This is undoubtedly the same as described in "Barbatos is not doing his job". Both people and things are unchanging truths.
But as "another Gu Sanqiu", the idea that the world is composed of seven elements can barely make sense. The theory of four elements, the theory of five elements, and even the theory of yin and yang are all similar to this.
As for the fact that each person can only activate one elemental force?
If he wasn't afraid of committing suicide, Gu Sanqiu could come up with a lot of "theoretical knowledge" in a few minutes and play the game of a hundred schools of thought in Liyue.
By that time, even if I am an official employee of Liyue and the only successor of the Fengxiang lineage, I guess the old God of War will not be able to protect me.
The established "facts" are such that if someone tries to interfere with the fate of this world, something terrible will definitely happen.
The two souls are independent of each other, but they also coexist. This is one of the main reasons why Gu Sanqiu cannot activate the Eye of God.
As for the other reason, Gu Sanqiu did not want the single attribute of the Eye of God to limit the direction of his future growth.
But now it seems that countless experiments have proved one thing. Unless he can take out a treasure of the lotus root level from the black hole and become brothers with Nezha, if he wants to use extraordinary powers in Teyvat, he can only accept the Eye of God.
"Accept the Eye of God, accept the elemental power, and truly integrate into this world..."
Gu Sanqiu was still hesitating, but then he opened his eyes a little, saw the giant shadow sculpture resting on the side, and saw Hu Tao standing beside him holding a Homa, without touching the food box at all, and suddenly made up his mind.
Do we still want the girl to use the secret techniques of the Wangsheng Hall? Those are life-threatening techniques.
"At least, I want to make those who care about me live a more comfortable life."
The gray-yellow light gradually transformed in the gem, gradually condensing into a symbol representing the elemental power of "rock".
The Eye of God, or the Gu family's inherited eye, recognized Gu Sanqiu!
Gu Sanqiu couldn't see it, Hu Tao was guarding, and what neither of them noticed was that below the rock elemental power symbol, a pure black dragon head appeared for just a moment and then disappeared into the dark gold color of the gem.
