Chapter 1453: Abyss Gustott, "The White Princess and the Six Dwarfs"

Mond border.

The Captain nodded: "I want to help Nata."

This was his state of mind at that time. He could not save Kanreya, but he could save this country that also housed life.

He showed a solemn temperament, but it eventually turned into dejection.

"As a soldier, once you have joined the war, you must do your best to win, even if your hometown is no longer behind you."

“We fought the abyss for a long time and overcame many difficulties, but Aizu still couldn’t escape his fate.”

The Captain sighed.

"I know about the prophecy, but I also think that her plan to come five hundred years later and gather heroes from the past and present to save Nata has too many uncertainties. If something goes wrong, Nata and even the entire Teyvat will be buried with her."

The raised voice was stern and heavy.

"..." Jiang Yi really wanted to tell him that if your memory had not been deleted and you had not known about my arrangements for "attesting the truth", you would definitely say that Nashida's and my plan was much more terrifying than Mavica's plan.

"I also know... Mavica has another alternative plan to be implemented with the Heart of God." The "Captain" looked in the direction of Nata, the land with which he had a deep connection.

"According to the prophecy, I will come to Nata in the last year. By then, if the situation in Nata has not really improved, I will take over and start the program for Mavica."

"Take away her God's Heart, and I will create new rules for Nata."

"Through the Heart of God, I drained the souls and memories of the entire Kingdom of Night God and wove a large net that wrapped around the earth veins and resisted the erosion of the abyss."

"After completing the rescue, bring the Heart of God back to Winter."

"If the capture fails... and I am not dead, then we will make another plan."

Jiang Yi did not comment on this, but said: "But from Nata's information, it seems that you have made preparations in advance..."

"Yes! Because of your appearance..." The "Captain" looked far away, "We have noticed the change in fate, and Her Majesty the Ice Queen has held a special meeting."

"After the meeting, I was worried that Nata's prediction would be advanced or delayed due to your appearance as a variable, and that errors beyond our expectations might occur."

"So we sent half of the troops to Nata in advance to make second-hand preparations."

"I have a mission to accomplish, and it is naturally difficult to obtain the Heart of the God of Fire with their help. So if I don't have the Heart of God and I am not in Nata...what should I do?"

Facing the abyss, the Fatui are not afraid of sacrifice.

Just like the advance team that once went to support Liyue's Layered Abyss with a heart of honor.

For the sake of mission, go fight for another country.

"A secret source scholar is a scholar in Nata who studies the ancient dragon relics and secret source mechanisms. The ancient dragons of Nata had a great civilization and creations that were different from humans. Many of Nata's current mechanisms are relics of ancient times."

"My subordinates integrated the research results of three secret source scholars and found a secret source device that can affect the earth veins. This allowed me to discover a method that is more targeted at the root of the problem than using the Heart of God - reconstructing the earth veins."

"The continuation of life is more important than any price to be paid."

“This is my decision.”

"If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have hesitated even if there had been unnecessary internal friction and a conflict with the God of Fire Mavica before we could go out to the outside world."

Jiang Yi looked at the "Captain" calmly, "Is this the insight your five hundred years of experience has given you?"

"That's right!" The Captain admitted without hesitation, "If I go back to that moment, I won't take any chances. I will let them survive, even if I have to use any means necessary. One day at a time is a day. If you can't get through the present, you have no right to think about the future."

Jiang Yi sighed, "The extinction of civilization lies in the loss of language, history, and writing... After reconstructing the earth veins, those who survive will lose everything in the past and return to ignorance."

The earth veins record the soul, history, and civilization.

Reconstructing the earth veins is equivalent to reconstructing this civilization, returning it to its original state and redeveloping it. It is exactly the same as the catastrophe of civilization extinction in the history of Teyvat. It is even more thorough and has lost all traces.

"If all you ask of me is to live, then if life becomes indescribable, do you accept that?"

Jiang Yi did not wait for the "captain" to answer, but asked again: "Do you know? The names of the three secret source scholars found by your subordinates are not in the official records of Nata."

“…” The “Captain” frowned for the first time.

"Who do you think they are?" Jiang Yi chuckled. "Mavica, the god of war in Nata, believes that history and memory have the same value as life. If you ask me, who agrees more with you or her?"

"You should know that I am a person who wants it all."

"I will not stop you from going to Nata, nor will I stop you from obtaining the Heart of God."

The latter was a tacit agreement between Jiang Yi and the Queen of Winter.

If the Queen of Winter supports his plan, then he also has to support the Queen of Winter's plan in exchange.

"Gustot, meaning 'Lord of the Abyss', is the source of the abyssal power that invaded Nata."

It was an indescribable monster composed of dark blue. On that day, it blocked the entire Nata with the power of the abyss and destroyed it.

The sun, moon, and stars were all obscured. Above the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the reflection from the Kingdom of the God of Night hung high in the sky of Nata in an indescribable posture, bringing trembling despair to all living beings.

Abyssal Tumors that can give birth to Abyssal Gates were scattered near each tribe, and the ground veins were transforming towards "chaos" at an extremely fast speed.

That was the purple-black abyss crystal that made the Nata warriors feel powerless. There were more and more abyss monsters, and they could not destroy the core of the abyss power no matter what.

The gates to the abyss opened one after another, the people of Liuquan and Xuanmu were all occupied and covered by the black fog of the abyss. Countless messengers who delivered messages were killed and injured, and medical logistics were paralyzed by abyss sniping. Whether it was humans, dragons, or other giant beasts and animals that inhabited the abyss, they all died in batches.

It is difficult to find a safe place even if you evacuate.

The abyss tumors that were accurately placed chased after life.

Descending from a deep and dark alien world, the abyss monster that can imitate all kinds of phenomena gives itself a shield of "virtual world force" and follows the law of elemental reaction of the three realms. Only extremely fast and high-frequency elemental attacks can destroy it, or in other words, the elemental force and the virtual world force annihilate each other.

For those who do not possess the Eye of God, this is a nightmarish enemy.

Jiang Yi had observed this kind of monster before. It was very similar to the life bred by the Grass Dragon, polluted by the abyss, and suitable for the post-"doomsday" life. It looked like it had tentacles and wings, purple-black bark eyes with dark black leaves and a bluish-white core.

It can transform into dragons, hillil thugs and other types of hillil people... Its scientific name is "Deep-rooted Phyllophyllum", and it has the "erosion" property, which will cause the "death zone" to wither. Just like the "erosion" of the beast realm hounds, it can erode and destroy the vitality of life.

Gustot, in the foreign language, in the records of Cthulhu mythology, the first five letters of "Yog-Sothoth" can be changed into Gustot after the order is disrupted, which means "unspeakable horror". Thoth, the god of wisdom and moon in ancient Egyptian mythology, even the unspeakable "wisdom", the forbidden "wisdom", and the "wisdom" of the dark universe.

All the gods and things in Teyvat are slightly related to the myths that Jiang Yi knows, which is a resonance connection of information.

Just like the Sumeru polluted by forbidden knowledge, after opening all the phantom murals of the Desert Red King Civilization, you can get the heart-pounding glory of "Phantom Beyond Time", the Golden King Beast, and the Beast Realm Hound have traces of "Tindalos Hound".

There are many specific examples, hidden in every corner of Teyvat and in the things encountered during the journey.

The reflection of "Gustott" hanging above Nata is radiating endless bluish-white light in the middle, just like a bright moon. Deep black cosmic fragments that break time and space surround the bright moon, one piece after another, bringing distortion of time and space and rules, forming weird patterns that make people lose their sanity.

The outer circle is endless darkness, emitting a chaotic black abyss light that darkens the sky and the earth. The tiny fragments of light are the blue and purple extinct stars reflected from the universe.

Only by destroying Nata can the real body of "Gustott" completely descend to the surface from the Kingdom of the Night God, enter Sumeru, and merge with the human god who was also in an indescribable state of "transformation" and "attainment of the truth" at that time to determine the superiority of will.

The Lord of the Abyss, the True Lord of the Abyss, the fusion of the two is enough to touch the higher dimensional beings and condense a more terrifying true name.

However, "Gustot" underestimated the determination of the God of Fire. Faced with the extinguishing of the "Holy Fire" that purified the darkness in the Holy Fire Arena, the God of Fire injected divine power without hesitation, and then burned the precious monument to her, incarnating as the "sun" of Nata's faith, to destroy the abyss tumor stone with the power of God.

While waiting for Jiang Yi to "attain enlightenment", Nata and the God of Fire almost burned themselves and turned into ashes to stop the abyss.

At that time, Jiang Yi's power law began to spread outside Nata, and many gods were needed to stop and suppress it. Even after paying attention to Nata's situation, they had no spare energy to rescue him and could only wait for the hope of success.

If Jiang Yi who was out of control was not stopped, Jiang Yi would most likely not go to Fontaine, but to Nata next to him, to devour the "True Lord of the Abyss" of the Kingdom of the God of Night, causing the life that had narrowly escaped death to die prematurely.

In the end, Jiang Yi's instinct was to find a way to wake himself up and get help from spiritual enlightenment.

Afterwards, Taixu Daotu suppressed the "opponent" back into the depths of the Kingdom of the Night God, and at the same time, it also fiercely bit off the opponent's power displayed on the surface of Nata.

All the squirming or rampant filth was not sent back to the Kingdom of the Night God to give the abyss a chance to recover, but was directly swallowed up by Jiang Yi's abyss incarnation, and was permanently lost.

The Abyss underestimated Nata's fighting strength and the success of the God of Man. The war it launched caused it to suffer heavy damage, and it was unable to threaten Nata for a long time.

And in turn, faces the danger of being cleared out by the God of Man.

"The original body of Gustot is still there. I use the power of the abyss to train soldiers. I want the people of Teyvat to study and find ways to defeat the power of the abyss."

"Going deep into its lair and destroying it is the test I am left with."

"Mavica is regaining her strength."

"The Night Goddess will not appear on the surface unless she uses the ancient mechanism that can reconstruct the earth veins. Her consciousness can rely on it and communicate."

Jiang Yi didn't need to remind him, this information was recorded by the Fatui executors who were preparing to reconstruct Nata's plan.

Just like the concept of ley lines, the Kingdom of the Night God is completely different from the real world. It is more like a river flowing with "concepts", and the ancient name of the Nata people is the small fish swimming in the river.

Only souls and consciousness can enter the "Kingdom of the Night God". Souls and consciousness carrying the "ancient name" can be resurrected and regain their bodies if they win under the rules of the "Nata Resurrection Poem".

As for the method of entering the "Kingdom of the Night God" with the physical body, although it exists, doing so will lead to rejection from the "Kingdom of the Night God" and at the same time face the erosion of the power of the abyss.

Especially in the "Kingdom of the Night God" eroded by the abyss, all common sense known to humans will become invalid.

Things like gravity, injury, height... can be turned into illusion or reality.

If they want to get out, they can only rely on the conceptual crack that symbolizes the "exit". When the crack disappears, a powerful god is needed to break the "concept of life and death" and use his power to penetrate the dimensional barrier of "the mortal world and the kingdom of the night god" to save them.
