Chapter 6
The Second Wave of Attacks on Mondstadt, Have You Seen the Mutated Hilichurls?

Su Xuan, wielding the Heavenly Fire Divine Judgment, had already surpassed Barbatos in terms of power.

While Barbatos possessed the ability to acquire information through the flow of time for a millennium.

Unfortunately, as long as Su Xuan chose to hide, Barbatos could not spy on or discover him.

Leaving the Windrise, Su Xuan rushed towards the Wind Dragon Ruins at an astonishing speed.

He found the first Ruin Guard of Khaenri'ah and claimed its eye.

"This is the key to the Abyss Order's completion of the Destiny Weaver."

"It's better to keep it in my possession."

Su Xuan stored the Ruin Guard's eye in the Imaginary Space.

The Destiny Weaver's primary function was to weave the Ley Lines.

For all beings in Teyvat, the Ley Lines were paramount.

They recorded everything about the world of Teyvat.

Re-weaving the Ley Lines was akin to processing and optimizing all the information.

Furthermore, the Destiny Weaver, in some ways, resembled the Infinite Tsukuyomi and the Stigmata Plan.

It could allow people to appear in the consciousness space as forms of consciousness.

However, its deeper aspect lay in its ability to materialize everything in the consciousness space into reality.

Like how Kaliber materialized a photo of himself with the Traveler siblings before vanishing.

That was just the beginning.

Once the Destiny Weaver was fully completed, weaving a new Ley Line, and materializing it using the Ley Line information, it could completely overturn the reality of the entire world.

As an Ascendant, Su Xuan didn't have to worry about his information being recorded by the World Tree's Ley Lines.

However, such a dangerous item was best kept in his own hands.

Nothing was more reassuring than having control.

Su Xuan found a comfortable spot, lay down, and checked his system. The previously stagnant emotion value had rapidly increased after people learned that the exposed future was indeed the true future.

There was curiosity, anticipation, but most of all, fear of the unknown.

Especially Hu Tao's promotion of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's services.

No one could remain calm in the face of death.

"The early stage has passed, the rest of the time can be spent freely weaving."

Su Xuan started clicking the system screen.

Although the system emphasized the importance of weaving within reason.

In Su Xuan's understanding, the key was that the woven content should align with his own capabilities.

That way, there wouldn't be any flaws in reality.

As for the authenticity of the content, due to his presence as the Fifth Ascendant, all predetermined developments would inevitably encounter severe distortions.

Reality would naturally undergo significant changes due to the exposed existence.

To obtain more emotion values, Su Xuan chose war as the main theme.

People would fear the unknown life and death, feel anger, helplessness, despair, drive, and occasionally experience joy due to small victories.

But Su Xuan didn't want everyone to think of him as a terrorist who enjoyed causing wars.

After all, the woven future was merely a means to acquire rewards, an illusion.

Reality was real, he couldn't truly make everyone tremble in fear at the sight of him, unable to approach.

That would be troublesome for Su Xuan himself.

He needed to leave some leeway for both sides in the woven content, in reality.

To achieve his goals.

"Completed, continue to release the future."

【Amber brought Lumine and Paimon to the dining area.】

【After ordering their meals, Amber paid and went to the Knights of Favonius headquarters under the pretense of reporting work.】

【She found Jean, the acting Grand Master, and submitted a report on the aftermath of the Hilichurls' attack on Mondstadt.】

【"Well done, Amber."】

【"If you hadn't discovered the Hilichurls' unusual actions earlier, Mondstadt's damage would have been much greater."】

【Jean smiled with approval in her eyes.】

【Amber blushed, scratching her head sheepishly, "It's what any Scout should do."】

【Then, shaking off her shyness, Amber suddenly looked seriously at Jean.】

【"Grand Master, I just saw some movement in the woods in the distance."】

【"I'm worried that the Abyss Order will launch a second attack tonight, we need to be prepared."】

【After listening to Amber's description, Jean nodded.】

【As the acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, Jean highly approved of Amber's work ethic.】

【Though only a young girl, she possessed a strong will that was not of adulthood.】

【She had repeatedly excelled in scouting missions and was quite experienced.】

【Amber's reminder immediately alerted Jean.】

【"You're right, I think the Abyss Order wouldn't give up so easily."】

【"Thank you, Amber, I'll go and prepare the defenses."】

【Jean forced a smile.】

【Recently, due to Dvalin's attack, the Fatui of Snezhnaya had used it to pressure Mondstadt diplomatically.】

【Dvalin had just disappeared, and the Abyss Order immediately struck.】

【Jean was overwhelmed with work, and hadn't slept in days.】

【Dusk arrived, and Jean ascended the walls of Mondstadt, gazing into the distance.】

【"Grand Master..."】

【At that moment, a knight-like figure approached.】

【"Are you still worried about the Abyss Order?"】

【"I don't think it's necessary, with their intelligence, they wouldn't make a counterattack."】

【"Especially not at night."】

Abyss Order.

The Traveler paused slightly.

The knight's words seemed to mock his leadership.

"Damn it."

"How dare you evaluate our Abyss Order like that." Abyss Fire was instantly enraged.

The Traveler remained silent.

The other party's rudeness indeed made him feel humiliated, but in the Abyss Order's plan, there was no preparation for a second wave of attacks.

Abyss Fire glanced at the Traveler, whose face was ashen, and instantly understood his thoughts, quickly advising, "Your Highness, that's a future event after all."

"I think it's because of Dvalin's incident that our plan changed."

"If the Scout wasn't mistaken, it could be our second attack."

Mondstadt City.

Jean also stared intently at the screen.

While hoping that Amber's intuition was wrong, she also hoped that the attacking force was indeed the Abyss Order led by the Hilichurl army.

Mondstadt still had a way to deal with the Abyss Order.

But if it was the mysterious Fifth Ascendant, Jean had no confidence.

After all, according to the screen, the Fifth Ascendant seemed to be a more terrifying existence than the Abyss Order.

【Jean sighed after hearing the knight's words.】

【She understood that everyone was on edge recently.】

【However, enemies often seize such opportunities to attack.】

【This was the time when one couldn't be careless.】

【"Grand Master!"】

【Suddenly, Amber's anxious voice broke Jean's thoughts.】

【Raising her head abruptly, she realized that Amber was rushing onto the wall in a hurry.】

【"Grand Master, I just went to scout, the Abyss Order is indeed preparing to launch a second attack on Mondstadt."】

【"Those Hilichurl monsters are about to reach Mondstadt City."】

【However, Amber's anxious appearance was beyond Jean's expectations.】

【In her memory, the young girl had never shown such panic.】

【"Amber, take your time, what did you see, why are you so flustered."】

【Amber gathered herself.】

【She managed to calm down her anxious tone.】

【"Grand Master, I discovered that these Hilichurls are different from before."】

【"Their appearance has changed drastically."】

【"They're white with a shell-like exterior."】

【"Besides, they have stripes of various colors, interspersed with the white base."】

【"Some are blue, some are pink, some are purple, all different."】

【After listening to Amber's report, Jean was shocked.】

【Her first reaction was that the Abyss Order had used some means to strengthen the Hilichurls.】

【"I see!" Jean suddenly realized.】

【"The first attack was just a probe and a distraction from the Abyss Order."】

【"This attack is their main force."】

【"Spread the word, all knights prepare yourselves, the monsters must not be allowed to approach Mondstadt City."】
