Su Yuan was still stunned by the fact that the mysterious little boy actually possessed the ability to stop time…
He even had ample reason to suspect that this mysterious boy might be connected to Istaroth, the Ruler of Time…
After all, abilities like time and space manipulation are among the highest-level powers, not something an ordinary person could control!
However, there was no use overthinking it.
Su Yuan decided to first try using a teleport waypoint to travel to Inazuma, seeking the help of Raiden Shogun and Kujou Sara to find a way to destroy and dismantle the Geo Archon's throne!
But when Su Yuan and his group arrived at the teleport waypoint, an unexpected situation occurred: the waypoint, which originally emitted a blue glow, was now radiating a red light, filled with a strange and ominous aura…
"It seems that the teleport waypoints in Liyue are experiencing the same situation you mentioned in Fontaine…"
Zhongli pondered thoughtfully:
"To be on the safe side, it's better not to use it…"
Tartaglia also nodded and said:
"If you go back and forth between Liyue and Inazuma now, Su Yuan, it will take a lot of time, and who knows what unexpected situations might arise along the way…"
"Su Yuan, why don't we just set off for Mt. Aocang right now!"
Tartaglia seemed somewhat eager as he spoke:
"From what you described earlier, it seems that the Cloud Retainer deliberately emphasized that you shouldn't disturb her at the cave in Mt. Aocang…"
"As for Zhongli's matter, until we find a stable and controllable way to deal with the eerie power, it's best to put it on hold for now!"
"But according to my intel, before everything is perfectly prepared, I'm being told not to go to Mt. Aocang over there…"
Su Yuan hesitated for a moment before speaking, but after some thought, he changed his mind and said:
"Forget it, let's go!"
Su Yuan felt that since he still had 1.3 rewind chances left, even if something unexpected happened, he could recover to some extent.
Besides, he still hadn't used the very useful plan from Kokomi's pouch!
But soon, Su Yuan realized a tricky point: since before the last rewind, he had already opened the pouch and knew its contents, and confirmed it was useful, then why did he still end up dying and rewind?
The death rewind was his last line of defense.
Wasn't the pouch supposed to help him avoid wasting rewind chances when facing an unsolvable dilemma?
Combining this with the hint in his palm that said the pouch was useful but must be used cautiously, Su Yuan vaguely formed an uncertain suspicion in his mind…
But the next moment, an urgent voice interrupted his thoughts and didn't let him continue pondering:
"Something's wrong! Mr. Su Yuan! Guest Consultant Zhongli!"
A member of the Millelith Army came rushing over, sweating profusely, with a very anxious expression, panting as he said:
"There's an unexpected situation over at Bubu Pharmacy. Lady Ganyu asked me to come to you for help!!!"
"So, what happened over at Bubu Pharmacy?" Zhongli asked with a serious expression.
"Because the Geovishaps launched a large-scale attack on Liyue, many Millelith Army brothers were seriously injured. After the Geovishaps retreated, they all went to Bubu Pharmacy for treatment…"
"Although Doctor Baizhu's medical skills are superb, with so many Millelith Army brothers and so many seriously wounded, even Doctor Baizhu is overwhelmed and unable to save them all…"
"Many of the Millelith Army brothers couldn't make it through and have left us forever…"
Hearing this, Su Yuan felt a wave of sadness in his heart.
These soldiers of the Millelith Army sacrificed their precious lives to protect the people of Liyue Harbor from the Geovishaps invasion, and they deserve everyone's mourning...
Moreover, now that Baizhu has lost his longevity, he cannot use the secret arts of longevity to transfer life essence to those severely injured patients, so even he feels helpless...
"This brother from the Millelith Army, we understand your grief and urgency..."
Su Yuan spoke to comfort him:
"None of us want to see something like this happen..."
"But the four of us here aren't skilled in medicine, so I'm afraid we can't offer much help..."
"That's not it. My brothers died protecting the people, and I believe they died without regrets!"
The Millelith soldier continued:
"The real issue isn't that — it's that my fallen brothers have undergone a corpse mutation!!!"
"Corpse mutation???" Su Yuan said in shock.
"Yes. After death, they turned into mindless walking corpses, indiscriminately attacking everyone around them..."
"Anyone bitten by them also turns into mindless zombies, crazily attacking those nearby..."
"Please, I beg you, give my brothers a swift release!"
The Millelith soldier's eyes welled up with tears, his voice filled with deep sorrow:
"They died protecting Liyue, but if they knew that after death they became the very cause of destruction in Liyue, their hearts would surely be filled with pain…"
"Su Yuan, Zhongli, let's go!!!"
Tartaglia spoke to Su Yuan and Zhongli, then took the lead, running toward the direction of Bubu Pharmacy.
When Su Yuan and his group arrived at the outskirts of Bubu Pharmacy, they found the area teeming with zombies.
Some Millelith soldiers looked pained as they fought fiercely against their zombified comrades.
Although the zombies had stiff joints and slower speed, their strength had clearly increased, making ordinary people no match for them.
Most importantly, Su Yuan sensed the eerie power's presence on these zombified individuals!
"Yo, yo, yo, my honored guest consultant Zhongli, with things looking like this, what do you think we should do?"
At that moment, a mischievous voice called out, and Su Yuan saw the girl with plum blossom-shaped eyes — none other than Hu Tao, the head of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.
"Although the records in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's documents mention that if the bodies of the deceased are left untreated for a long time, they may cause disease or plague, or be affected by remnants of the Abyss or other ominous substances, turning into the kind of mindless undead we see now…"
"But the situation at Bubu Pharmacy is happening way too fast…"
"These Millelith soldiers only recently sacrificed themselves; the patriotic blood in their bodies hasn't even cooled yet. How could they suddenly become undead like this?"
"Director Hu, nice to meet you. Let me briefly introduce myself: I'm Su Yuan — Su from 'tiramisu,' Yuan from 'ruined walls'…"
Su Yuan said to Hu Tao:
"This isn't a simple case of zombification. It's related to eerie power!"
