Mondstadt.
A gentle breeze rustled the silver hair.
A black, form-fitting, body-hugging suit, paired with blue thigh-high stockings, accentuated the girl's figure perfectly.
The cutouts on either side of the bodysuit revealed her fair skin.
The sexy attire formed a stark contrast to her cold, aloof demeanor.
Sirkoc stood on the plains of Mondstadt, her crimson eyes fixed on the ground, lost in thought.
Dainsleif had been defeated by Su Xuan with a single move.
And it had been a backstab while Su Xuan was preparing to leave.
“A sneak attack, and he got beaten like a dog?”
Sirkoc stroked her chin, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.
“Seems my master's assumption that the Fifth Descender and the Twins were of equal strength was wrong.”
“Wrong in a truly absurd way.”
She shook her head a few times, her mouth open, looking speechless.
Su Xuan, with his knowledge of history and the present, must surely know her identity.
Sirkoc dared to assert that if she approached Su Xuan, her fate would be far worse than Dainsleif's.
At least Dainsleif truly didn't align with the other five.
However, as Surtrlloch’s disciple, Sirkoc was a legitimate soldier of the Abyss.
She stood there, lost in thought for a very, very long time.
Finally, for the first time, Sirkoc turned her body, and the space in front of her crumbled.
Leave, she absolutely had to leave.
This Fifth Descender was nothing like the Descender she had known.
But as Sirkoc was about to step into the spatial rift, she suddenly stopped.
The next second, the spatial tunnel before her vanished without a trace.
“Damn it!” Sirkoc bit her lip in frustration.
As Surtrlloch's disciple, raised and influenced by him from a young age, Sirkoc was almost a carbon copy of her master.
She also had an extreme pursuit of power and a unique admiration for strong individuals.
Sirkoc hesitated. Aside from Su Xuan's own strength, which left her dumbfounded, the Stigma potion that could shatter the God's Eye in his hand made her drool.
She was lucky, being a woman, she had the inherent condition to receive the Stigma potion and become a Valkyrie.
If Surtrlloch were a woman, he would have rushed to Su Xuan without hesitation, using any means to obtain the Stigma potion.
Sirkoc stood there, pondering for a long time, her gaze involuntarily drifting towards the Stormterror's Lair.
The eye of the first tractor was the most important thing that could stop the Abyss from creating the Loom of Fate. She thought if Su Xuan was truly in Mondstadt, he would definitely go to get the tractor's eye first, just like the future revealed, to break the Abyss's ambition to create the Loom of Fate.
On the other side.
Dainsleif had lost his usual composure.
He stared blankly at the luminous screen before him.
Su Xuan’s words still echoed in his mind.
“I was also one of those who obtained the power of the Abyss?”
“I am also a sinner of Khaenri'ah?”
“The Six Sinners, the Six Sinners...”
“Ugh!”
A sharp headache suddenly struck him, Dainsleif's eyes went black, and with a slight exertion of force, he crushed the tree trunk he was leaning on.
He couldn't accept the reality that he was one of them.
He couldn't accept the cruel fate of those who became Hilichurls after Khaenri’ah's destruction, and he couldn't accept that his dearest friend was deeply entangled in the Abyss like a pawn.
Dainsleif looked towards the high tower of Stormterror's Lair.
As long as he didn't obtain the tractor's eye, his future self wouldn't be confused and give it to the Traveler.
Without the tractor's eye, the Abyss Order wouldn't be able to fully realize the wishes of those five.
Dainsleif endured the headache, wanting to turn and leave Mondstadt, but he stopped in his tracks.
The screen had already revealed the future, and the people of Teyvat knew that the world's first tractor was in Stormterror's Lair. The Abyss Order couldn't possibly be unaware.
“Those guys...” Dainsleif gritted his teeth. He was about to turn and head towards Stormterror's Lair, but then he remembered Su Xuan.
As the Fifth Descender involved in the world's struggle, Su Xuan knew all this and wouldn't allow the tractor's eye to fall into the hands of the Abyss Order.
Thinking about this, Dainsleif finally calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked up again, his eyes were filled with ruthlessness.
“Hmph! I can rest assured and find your whereabouts in the remaining time.”
“I will make you pay for your actions.”
At this moment, the people of Mondstadt were the most anxious.
They had originally thought that Dainsleif, who had been hyped up by Su Xuan, would be a sight to behold.
But as soon as the screen lit up, Dainsleif collapsed.
However, after that light, whether Dainsleif had the power to rival the world was no longer important.
Su Xuan not only easily broke through the barrier set by the Wind God Barbatos in Stormterror's Lair, but after that, the eruption of an eerie power leveled the Stormterror's Lair.
If he could level Stormterror's Lair, he could naturally level Mondstadt.
Whether Su Xuan's power reached the level of rivaling the world was unimportant. The most important thing was that there was no one in Mondstadt who could defeat him.
【Headquarters of the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt City.】
【Early morning breakfast time.】
【Acting Grand Master Jean paces anxiously in the room.】
【Eula, who went to help rescue Amber, hasn't returned to Mondstadt yet, and there's no news back.】
【She has a bad feeling about this.】
【Eula might have already been sacrificed.】
【The intelligence brought back by Amber also made her feel mentally crushed.】
【Those mutated Hilichurls were not creations of the Abyss Order but were summoned by a person named Su Xuan.】
【He could even summon mutated Hilichurl Kings.】
【Jean feels hopeless.】
【With Mondstadt's current strength, it's absolutely impossible to resist the mutated Hilichurl King's attack.】
【Her only hope is pinned on the "catch the thief first" strategy.】
【Before Su Xuan attacks Mondstadt, find his hiding place and gather strength to kill Su Xuan, the one who controls the mutated Hilichurls.】
【As long as Su Xuan dies, the mutated Hilichurls will lose control and stop acting.】
【Bang, bang, bang...】
【The door to the office of the Knights of Favonius headquarters is knocked on heavily.】
【Jean immediately calls for the knight outside to enter and asks, “Is there any discovery?”】
【But as soon as Jean sees the knight's panicked expression, her face changes.】
【“What's wrong with you?”】
【She asks this, but her heart is already prepared to receive a bolt from the blue.】
【“Did the knights who went out to investigate die?”】
【“Or...”】
【“Jean...Jean Grand Master...” The knight cried out in terror, tears and snot running down his face, “Outside, outside...”】
【“We found groups of mutated Hilichurls outside the city, and they are currently approaching Mondstadt.”】
【“And...and...”】
【“And there are several mutated Hilichurl Kings among them.”】
【Jean: “!!!”】
【The space on the cliff face distorts out of thin air.】
【A dark vortex appears once again.】
【Su Xuan is the first to step out of the spatial tunnel, followed by Eula, who has entered the Valkyrie state.】
【His mood seems to be very good, and he has a kind and humble smile on his face.】
【Turning to look at Eula behind him, he examines her up and down, very satisfied with Eula's choice.】
【“Observing you from such a close distance, I find you even more beautiful as a Valkyrie than you were as the Spindrift Knight.”】
【Hearing Su Xuan's praise, Eula's cheeks instantly flushed red.】
【Perhaps she is not used to being alone with Su Xuan yet, plus the gap in status between their identities.】
【Eula averts her eyes, unable to meet Su Xuan's gaze, and shyly says, “Sir, please don't make fun of me.”】
【“Important things first.”】
【Both of them turn to look at the mutated Hilichurl army below.】
【It is estimated that the mutated Hilichurl army will reach the foot of Mondstadt City in less than 30 minutes.】
【“Do you know what to do?”】
【Su Xuan suddenly asks.】
【Eula, standing next to him, stiffens for a few seconds.】
【But she still nods gently, her gaze fixed on Mondstadt City in the distance.】
【She says, “Let these knights feel despair.”】
