After thinking for a moment, Daines Reeb looked at Ying and said.
"Perhaps... they were ordered by someone to deliberately avoid your route."
"Huh? That sounds dangerous!"
Paimon exclaimed in surprise.
"Is this to ambush us at the right time?"
"It's fine……"
Ying gently patted Paimon's head, comforting him.
"I will defeat them."
"Um!"
Paimon, hands on his hips, said proudly upon hearing this.
"We're really awesome!"
"Cough cough..."
Suddenly, Jiang Mu almost couldn't hold it in and started coughing violently.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Seeing this, Ying quickly asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I just remembered something happy..."
Jiang Mu waved his hand.
Just now, he did recall a joke he had seen before.
"It's just that Ying and Paimon are standing together," Paimon said proudly.
"We two went on a rampage, killing everything in sight!"
Then someone started commenting below.
"Indeed, Ying is in charge of the rampage, and Paimon is in charge of the slaughter..."
………………
"Hmm... I have a feeling you're thinking about something really rude..."
With his arms crossed in dissatisfaction, Paimon complained.
"hehe……"
Jiang Mu waved his hand and said.
"Never mind all that. If you say anything more, I'll cancel your dinner tonight!"
"Huh?!?!"
Upon hearing this, Paimon waved his hands repeatedly and said...
"Alright, alright, Paimon won't say anymore, Paimon won't say anymore, okay..."
"hehe……"
Watching the interaction between the group, Daines Reeb smiled and looked at Ying with a hint of emotion, saying...
"You two have such a great relationship..."
"It's alright..."
Ying smiled and looked at the two who were playfully fighting.
"If I could find my brother, perhaps..."
"Hmm...maybe, your brother will appear before you soon, who knows?"
Looking at Ying, Daines Reeb thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Thank you for your kind words."
Ying nodded as she spoke.
"So……"
With that, Daines Reeb stood up and addressed the three of them.
"Then let's go take a look now. According to some intelligence I have, the Abyss Order has re-entered the Temple of the West Wind Eagle."
"The Temple of the Eagle of the West... I remember... We went there before, didn't we? It's been overrun by monsters again..."
Paimon said with some surprise.
"Let's meet there. Perhaps you'll find the answers to your questions about the abyss there."
Daines Reeb looked at Ying and said softly.
"good."
Ying nodded, her gaze intense.
………………
Soon, Yingyu, Paimon, and Jiangmu arrived at the Temple of the Falcon, located not far outside Mondstadt. Looking at the somewhat familiar building, all three were filled with emotion.
Those days of struggle in Mondstadt still seem so vivid in my mind...
Meanwhile, Dainesreb had been waiting for them for quite some time in front of the Temple of the Westwind Eagle. Upon seeing their arrival, he simply nodded and said...
"This abandoned temple indeed bears deep traces..."
As he spoke, seemingly to himself, Daines Reeb murmured.
"The Eagle of the West Wind... though it can soar on the wind, it ultimately only hovers in the light of the gods..."
"What's wrong?"
Although she couldn't hear Daines Reeb's mutterings clearly, Ying still asked with some doubt.
"nothing……"
Daines Reb shook his head slightly and then took a step forward.
"Let's go in quickly."
"OK."
Jiang Mu nodded slightly, exchanged a glance with Ying, and then followed closely behind Daines Reeb into the temple of the West Wind Eagle.
………………
"The abyss's aura is growing stronger. It seems we're not far from it..."
Upon arriving at the temple, Dainesreb slowly closed his eyes, sensing the surrounding atmosphere, and murmured to himself.
"What exactly does the Abyss Apostle look like...?"
Paimon asked with some curiosity.
"Does he... look just like those abyss mages?"
"Let's keep going. If we can see the monster, then you'll understand without me having to explain."
Daines Reeb smiled.
"good!"
………………
Finally, after dealing with the monsters, mainly Abyss Mages, along the way, the four of them arrived inside the ruins, but surprisingly, they did not see the so-called Abyss Apostle.
"Were only those abyss mages discovered?"
Daines Reeb frowned slightly as he looked at the mess around him and said.
"It seems the Apostle of the Abyss has already left..."
"that……"
Suddenly, Ying looked at Daines Reeb and said hesitantly.
"Could you tell me more about the Abyss?"
Upon hearing this, Daines Reeb seemed somewhat surprised. After taking a deep look at Ying and Jiang Mu, he nodded and said.
"Let's go outside first, and talk as we walk."
Ying and Jiang Mu exchanged a glance and both nodded.
"good."
………………
"The abyss is chaos, and destruction."
As he walked, Daines Reeb also spoke slowly.
"It is an unfathomable, insane chaos that is eroding the very foundation of this world."
"erosion?"
Upon hearing this somewhat unfamiliar term, all three of them were slightly taken aback.
"That's right, it's erosion."
Daines Reeb nodded and continued.
"This is why Teyvat, the East Wind Dragon and a follower of the gods, could not resist the erosion of the abyss's power."
"Then why did they..."
Paimon asked, somewhat puzzled.
"The monsters of the abyss have no other desire than to overthrow the world ruled by the gods."
"Diners Reeb said slowly."
"Dain really knows the Abyss..."
Paimon remarked.
"hehe……"
Upon hearing this, Daines Reeb shrugged.
"My connection with the abyss...is not shallow..."
As he spoke, Daines Reeb looked into the distance, thought for a moment, and said.
"Alright, enough of this small talk. We should head to Wolf March now."
Seeing the puzzled looks on their faces, Daines Reeb smiled and explained.
"According to my recent investigation, another location where the Abyss Order has appeared may be on the territory of that old wolf."
"Old Wolf?"
Upon hearing this, Ying immediately thought of the North Wind Wolf King, whom she would beat up every week... cough cough, no, I mean, the one she would visit once a week.
"Perhaps we can find the Abyss Apostles there."
"Okay, let's go!"
Paimon is full of energy and authentic.
Ying and Jiang Mu exchanged a glance and nodded.
"good."
"As before, I'll go first."
Daines Reeb nodded to the two of them, and then disappeared.
"Let's hurry up and go."
Jiang Mu looked at Ying and said.
