The whole world is also undergoing tremendous changes at this moment. The demonic scale disease and the death zone that have plagued the people of Xumi are gradually dissipating, and the world's memory of the Great Compassion Tree King is also disappearing.
........
Ueno Chiki opened his eyes and found himself in Jingshan Palace.
He rubbed his temples, trying to recall what had just happened. He remembered that he had a strange dream, but he could no longer remember everything in the dream.
I only vaguely remembered someone asking me to take good care of Nashida, but that person's face and voice became blurry.
But who is that person?
Is it the Great Compassionate Tree King?
The name just appeared in his mind, but it immediately became blurred and then turned into the Little Lucky Grass King.
He felt like he was going crazy.
"Qianshu, are you okay?" Yingmei stood beside him, her eyes full of worry and concern.
Ueno Chiki shook his head and stopped thinking about these things, and then he slowly felt relieved.
He waved his hand, "I'm fine. Do you remember what happened just now?"
Yingmei hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I don't remember it clearly."
They turned their eyes to Nashida and found that her face was full of tears and sorrow. "We just saved the World Tree, right? But, I...I...why am I crying?"
"Nashida, do you remember what happened just now?" asked Ueno Chiki. Many memories in his mind seemed to be deliberately blocked. He knew what it was, but he just couldn't open it. If he tried to open it forcibly, he would immediately feel severe pain.
"What happened just now? We just used the power of two God's Hearts to successfully establish a connection with the consciousness of the World Tree from five hundred years ago, and then erased the pollution in the World Tree." Nashida replied.
When Ueno Chiki heard the word "World Tree", a strong feeling suddenly surged in his heart.
The blurriness and confusion of my memory should be due to the interference of the World Tree.
In order to completely eliminate the remnants of forbidden knowledge, the World Tree forcibly modified part of his memory, making it impossible for him to clearly recall what had just happened.
Some of his memories are not from this world, so the World Tree cannot modify them, and instead takes another approach, which is to block them.
These blocked memories seemed to be separated by an invisible membrane, making them inaccessible to him.
He turned and looked at Yingmei. He knew that Yingmei should know the answer.
However, Yingmei didn't say it, which means that knowing the truth is meaningless.
He no longer dwelled on the matter and instead became fully alert.
Because that perverted man is coming soon.
Chapter 154 There is no benefit, who will betray?
A strange sound wave spread in the palace without warning, and the sound wave was like an invisible ripple, spreading layer by layer.
Ueno Chishu, who was in the middle of it, only felt a strong dizziness, as if the whole world was spinning. He snorted in his heart, knowing who was behind this.
Dotorei, this guy finally came.
As soon as he thought about it, the evil eye on his waist, which contained mysterious power, immediately emitted a refreshing cool current.
This cold current was like a winter stream, icy and clear, instantly dispelling the drowsiness brought by the sound waves.
Yingmei and Paimon did not have the same resistance as him. Under the impact of the sound wave, they fainted on the spot and fell to the ground, unconscious.
At this time, footsteps were approaching. Dotole walked slowly in front of them, like a ghost in the dark night, and said, "The battle in the God-making Workshop was very exciting. I can't help but applaud you!"
Nashida angrily stood in front of Yingmei and Paimon and questioned Dotore, "Executor of the Fatui, what did you do to the travelers?"
"Don't be nervous, it's just sound waves that make people fall asleep quickly. It won't do much harm to the body." Dotole looked at her indifferently, his voice was cold and ruthless, as if he was talking about something insignificant.
After hearing his answer, Nashida was relieved. Although she didn't completely believe what Dotore said, she at least knew that Yingmei and Paimon were not in danger for the time being.
"Why are you here?"
"Of course it's to get the Heart of God back from you. I gave it to the House of Lords." Dotore stretched out his hand and asked Nashida for it.
Nashida shook her head. "This is the spoils of the Demon War. According to the laws of Teyvat, it is mine."
"Buyer, as a scholar, I have respect for the God of Wisdom, but if you don't cooperate, I will have to be rude to you." There was a threat in Dotore's cold tone.
"As a god, I will not surrender to anyone, even if your strength far exceeds mine. But before that, I have enough time to destroy the Heart of God. Do you dare to bet whether this will attract the attention of Sky Island?" Nashida was not afraid of his threat at all, and instead threatened him with the Heart of God.
When Dotore heard this, a strange smile appeared on his face. "You are indeed the God of Wisdom! But you still haven't considered the evil of human hearts!" His words were full of sarcasm and disdain, as if he was mocking Nashida's naivety and ignorance. Then he suddenly changed the subject and said, "It's time to take action!"
As he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire palace suddenly became tense. When Nashida heard this, she was immediately filled with panic and fear.
What she feared was not Dotore, but that Chiki Ueno, whom she deeply trusted, would betray her.
However, this scene did not happen. Ueno Chiki just crossed his arms and looked at Dotore quietly, as if he was waiting for something.
"Oppenheimer, code name 9527, you do it!" Dottore frowned and said coldly.
However, Ueno Chiki still did not take any action.
Dottore was irritated by his indifferent attitude. "What on earth do you want to do? Have you forgotten that you are a Fatui?"
A sly smile suddenly appeared on Ueno Chiki's face, "Lord Dotore, I am now also a saint of the Zongmen Society. If you want me to betray the little auspicious grass king, you must give me benefits! If I don't give benefits, who would betray me?" His words were full of sarcasm and ridicule, as if he was mocking Dotore's naivety.
"Benefits? You actually asked me for benefits? There are no benefits at all!" Dotore was a little angry and laughed.
"No benefit? How is that possible?" Ueno Chiki suddenly showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face, "I understand now, all the benefits given by Her Majesty the Queen were taken as kickbacks! I have heard that if you offer the Heart of God to the Queen, the Queen will reward you with a huge amount of wealth."
Dotole was so angry that his face turned blue. Although Ueno Chiki was talking nonsense, some of his guesses were correct. The funds for his experiments basically came from the Fatui. As a corresponding condition, he had to work for the Ice Queen.
If he could not retrieve the Heart of God for the Ice Queen, there was no doubt that his experimental funding would immediately shrink a lot.
"Don't forget, you are also a Fatui, and you must be loyal to Her Majesty the Queen!" Dotore said angrily.
Ueno Chiki just shook his head slightly, with a more obvious teasing smile on his face, "Yes, I haven't forgotten. I am from the Fatui, and I am loyal to Her Majesty the Queen, but not to you. You have to understand this."
Dottore was completely enraged by his words, but he did not lose his temper immediately.
He took a deep breath, then slowly said to Nashida: "In this case, can I make a deal with you, Boyer?"
When Nashida heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly, showing her interest in the deal. "Oh? That's interesting. The Heart of God is of no use to me. If you can offer something of equal value, I will agree to your deal."
She had a hunch about the Heart of God. It was an object that would bring bad luck to people. Instead of keeping it in her hands, she would rather exchange it for something useful.
"I don't know what you need?" asked Dotore.
Nashida looked at her and whispered, "Knowledge, the knowledge you used the demon's residue to experiment with!"
Dotore was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that she wanted this kind of knowledge. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an evil smile.
Then, he slowly raised his hand, and dozens of thick volumes of various experimental records and summaries appeared in his palm.
"Buyer, I agree to the deal. I hope you will like these things." There was a strange excitement in Dottore's voice.
When Ueno Chiki saw this scene, he was quite moved. He remembered that in the original plot, the content of the transaction was that Dotole personally cleared all the remaining slices of himself.
But now what Nashida asked to trade was the knowledge of human experiments that she hated so much, and all of this was for him.
Nashida waved her hand, and the experimental records and summaries were collected. Then she threw the purple Heart of God to Dotore.
Dotore took the Heart of God, looked at it carefully, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. "Very good, I accept the Heart of God. Now let's talk about the second part of the transaction."
"Oh? There is a second item?" Nashida asked puzzledly.
Dotore looked at her deeply and said, "The second item of the deal is your Heart of God!"
Chapter 155 The villain dies because he talks too much
"You want my Heart of God?" Nashida shook her head. "It has been traded away. It doesn't belong to me anymore."
Dotore's face darkened. This was not in his plan. He had come all the way here, thinking that he could easily obtain two God's Hearts, but reality played a joke on him one after another. His brows were furrowed, and his irritability was about to burst out.
"So, where is it now?" Dotore's tone was full of anger and irritability. He was obviously very dissatisfied with such a change.
Ueno Chiki smiled slightly, "It's in my hands. I have already contacted Lady Columbia, and she will personally take the Heart of God and present it to the great Ice Queen in a moment."
There was a flash of surprise in Dotore's eyes, followed by a look of admiration, "Oppenheimer, I must admit that you are the smartest person I have met in the past hundred years.
In this chess game of Xumi, you used everyone, including me, as pawns, played a big game, and obtained everything you wanted - the respect of the people of Xumi, the trust of Buyer and the reward of the Queen.
Your strategy reminds me of Piero, the commander of the Fatui."
He paused and continued, "But do you know what is the difference between you and him?"
Before Ueno Chiki could speak, Dotole suddenly exuded an extremely cold and terrifying aura, and the air around him dropped several degrees in an instant.
Behind him, without warning, two palm-sized silver spikes appeared. They glowed coldly and floated there quietly.
"That is absolute power!" He growled, his voice full of determination and murderous intent.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two spikes immediately turned into two silver lights and rushed towards Ueno Chiki at lightning speed.
Ueno Chishu was horrified. At this critical moment, he did not dare to hesitate or hold back, and exerted his strength to the fullest. He knew clearly that the man in front of him was an extremely terrifying existence, and if he was not careful, he might die.
The God's Eye and the Evil Eye on his waist flashed dazzling light at the same time, and the lightning element and ice element gathered rapidly at this moment.
"Thunder!"
As he shouted, a powerful electric current suddenly gushed out from his body, instantly enveloping him in a ball of dazzling purple thunder.
Then, he attacked again, using his elemental combat skill - "Lightning Whip".
He just spread out his hands, and suddenly countless purple whips like long dragons appeared in the space.
These long whips were like living things, rolling and twisting in the air, making crackling sounds.
Following his gestures, the purple whips whistled towards the two silver spikes.
The collision between the long whip and the spike produced a violent sound, as if even the air was vibrating. Every time there was a collision, a group of dazzling purple electric light would burst out, illuminating the entire space.
However, despite the desperate obstruction of these purple whips, the forward speed of the two silver spikes was only slightly slowed down.
They seemed to have infinite power, ignoring all obstacles and continuing to rush forward firmly. After each collision, they would speed up again, as if they wanted to completely destroy all obstacles.
A cruel smile appeared on Dotore's lips, as if he had already seen the spikes piercing Ueno Chiki's head in the next second.
Just as the spikes were about to reach Ueno Chiki, an oval ice shield appeared firmly in front of them. The ice shield emitted a faint blue light, and its appearance temporarily stopped the two spikes from moving forward.
"Hmph! It turned out to be the evil eye bestowed by Her Majesty the Queen herself. Columbia is really willing to do that!" Dotore snorted coldly and increased his power output.
The spikes pierced into the ice shield, making a sharp buzzing sound. Every time they pierced, ripples appeared on the surface of the ice shield, making people feel that it might break at any time.
