Chapter 434: Gu Sanqiu Has Other Plans
“I suffered a loss this time.”
Albedo led everyone to retreat quickly. They suffered from the lack of information. When Diluk and Kaeya returned with injuries, it was already too late.
If the assault team had not used unconventional means to break into the Sleeping Dragon Valley, the Abyss Cult's trick of summoning and re-summoning could have been completed in the course of the battle with the Knights of Favonius.
It cannot be said that the assault team achieved nothing, but it can be said that they did their best under the circumstances of haste.
However, as the Abyss side had been prepared for a long time, the things they had reserved, or the response plans they had thought of were more diverse.
And now, when the red beam of light appeared, Albedo and Gu Sanqiu understood that the situation was beyond their control.
If this were a game of chess, the assault team would have been checkmated by now.
"Go! Don't distract me!"
The spear force was like a dragon, and the resonance shook the air. Gu Sanqiu stabbed out dozens of spears in a row, and knocked the opponent down by withstanding the double blades of the Fire Apostle!
Gu Sanqiu increased the output of the black will without hesitation. The black flames burning in his eyes suddenly felt like they were about to flow out, but the pain in his mind was also magnified several times.
"The stars fall and destroy the mountains!"
The rock element wrapped around Gu Sanqiu and the spear, and transformed into a thick golden beam of light that fell from the sky and hit the flame apostle's abdomen!
"Hahaha, it's useless, little Gu, I'm starting to not hate you anymore."
A crackling sound came from the apostle's body. It was obvious that this move destroyed most of the elemental armor on the opponent's body.
But for him, the damage was minimal.
"Depend on."
Gu Sanqiu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth expressionlessly, and then assigned the power back to the seal.
He has already confirmed that the power has no special effect when facing people in the abyss. In this case, there is no need to continue using this dangerous power. He is not without other means.
The Fire Apostle gently waved the weapon in his hand, shaking off the rock element crystals on it.
"Hey, you're quite different from the guy named Gu that I met before. Let me think about what that guy's name was. I think it was Gu Shaochong?"
The double blades attacked again: "Yes, that guy! He's very strong, but he kept saying 'I can't fight' and then pushed me into the ground and beat me up!"
"I'm going to get my revenge on you, asshole!"
Gu Sanqiu held the other party's double blades, glared at him with gritted teeth, "If Gu Shaochong beat you up, go find him, why are you looking for me?"
"Master, I am only in my early twenties. How can my strength be compared with that of an old fellow from five hundred years ago? Idiot!"
Weapons wrapped in elemental power collided with each other, and the crystals produced by the reaction were quickly burned up by the flames, or reused by Gu Sanqiu to cover the opponent's joints with the crystal fragments to restrict movement.
"Five hundred years. Five hundred years. It doesn't seem that long."
The Flame Apostle suddenly realized: "I remember now. The guy named Gu I met was indeed very old, with white hair and beard."
Gu Sanqiu said nothing as he fired another shot, shattering a small piece of elemental armor. He inexplicably felt suffocated.
This kind of battle where you can't deal any damage after fighting for a long time but still have to fight on is much more painful than trying every possible way to break the shield. At least you can see the health bar after breaking the shield!
"Ahahaha, so you're not actually that strong. That's great. Even though your last name is Gu, I suddenly don't hate you anymore!"
The double blades created a gust of wind, and the inexplicably excited Apostle of the Abyss used his double blades to cut out a huge vortex of sharp energy, trying to pull Gu Sanqiu into it and burn him to pieces!
"Feel the grace, feel the pain of truth burning your body, return to my Lord, return to the truth!"
"As solid as a rock!"
The Rock Ridge Shield was activated, and the two chains representing the power of the Rock Ridge emitted bright rock elemental light, with a faint golden light shining in it!
The high-intensity battle forced Gu Sanqiu to continue using the Rock Ridge Shield. The demon-level power was gradually being assimilated by him, and he even had a chance to evolve into the "Jade Shield"!
The apostle put away his knife, then tilted his head and looked at Gu Sanqiu, who was sealed in his move, with a puzzled look on his face.
"Hey, the one below, why don't you let me kill him? It's a bit impossible to let him feel the grace of my Lord."
"Shut up, this is not something you should know. You will die if you ask this kind of thing."
The apostle was surprised: "Huh? We will die again?"
"Do you want to try it?"
The voice of the mastermind below suddenly turned cold, and wisps of red light descended from the sky, surrounding the apostles and emitting an ominous aura.
"Okay, okay, I won't try. Whatever you want to do, it'd better be as soon as possible."
The apostle shuddered all over. "That old fellow called Gu Shaochong, or should I say the little fellow, almost made me cry in that battle. I always feel that people with the last name Gu are not good people, they are very evil."
In the whirlpool, Gu Sanqiu's eyes fell on the apostle, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
That’s it, say more, say more, and it would be best if you could tell us what color the underwear of that ancestor named Gu Shaochong was.
Of course, if you are still so shameless as to reveal what your plan for today is, I, Gu Sanqiu, promise to build you an extremely magnificent cenotaph, and let your colleagues in the Abyss Cult despise you for ten thousand years.
Wait a little longer, just a little longer...
Inside Gu Sanqiu’s body, the large cauldron that represented his journey towards his own destiny emitted a bright golden light.
And at the edge of the golden light, strands of pink patterns are gradually being carved out by some force, as if they are mysterious symbols drawn by a huge hand of nothingness.
On the front battlefield, Qin, who was in command, had to fight in person. The battle on their side had entered a stage where both sides were suffering casualties.
The monsters are fearless, but the Favonius Knights' combat skills and years of accumulation are not to be underestimated. With a reasonable lineup, their formation has not been broken up yet.
Not far from the battlefield of the Knights of Favonius, three unexpected figures appeared on the road.
Rosaria, Prince Tartaglia.
And, Ms.
Rosalyn Cruzica Lowfat.
"Do we really want to get involved in this?"
Duck Duck walked up to the lady and whispered, "This doesn't go according to our plan."
"I know."
Rosalyn ran her right hand over the mask and veil on her face: "But I want to go."
The boy who is willing to listen to me singing quietly is the only love of my life.
If it were you, no matter you were in a cage of flames or a cold prison of ice, you would definitely fight to the end with sword in hand.
Are you a wolf cub?
No, in my heart, even the demon of the north wind and the wolf god named Andrius cannot compare with the brilliance of you.
You are——Wolf King!
Rosalia looked at the lady coldly: "Although I don't know why the old lady would meet with you and even let you tell you the details of this operation, I advise you not to do anything irrational."
"Otherwise, you will die."
"Old mother?"
Rosalin turned her head to look at Rosalia and suddenly sneered.
"You mean that little girl?"
Rosalin stretched out her right hand, feeling the breeze that was everywhere in Mondstadt.
"Because they grew up listening to my legend."
"This is true for Liyue and Mondstadt. The wear and tear of changing times has caused the world to forget too much."
"I am a witch!"
