People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

And after she activated the fire, she indeed sensed a faint fluctuation.

This is the resonance between Fire and Heart of Oasis.

Relying on this connection, Nashida successfully locked down Apep's hiding place.

"In the desert, let's go now."

After determining Apep's location, Nashida couldn't wait to set off.

The impact of the death of the Grass Dragon on Xumi.

She knew it better than Rhodes.

Before Nashida could move, Rhodes spoke up to stop her impulse.

"Wait a moment."

Rhode stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "Apep's attitude towards gods and humans is not so friendly, especially since she has been tortured by forbidden knowledge for so many years. Her negative emotions have been magnified to the extreme. We'd better find some help. At least don't let her attack us right away, otherwise we will have no way to deal with her."

"helper?"

What Rhodes said made sense, and Nashida's impulsive heart calmed down temporarily.

Taboo knowledge will indeed cause living beings to breed a large amount of negative emotions and amplify them infinitely.

Just like the negative emotions in the consciousness space of the Great Compassion Tree King before, which even Nashida felt depressed about.

In other words, Apep's emotions are now in an extremely unstable state.

If the grass dragon started to attack them madly before they could send the fire into Apep's body, Nashida was sure that she would not be able to resist Apep.

"Who are you going to look for?"

"Other gods?"

Nashida asked Rhodes, and at the same time went over the information of several other rulers in her mind to see who would be more suitable to ask for help.

"Do not."

To Nashida's surprise, Rhode shook his finger and said, "The helpers we are looking for are a group of mushroom beasts."

190. Chapter 181: Ahepep, One of the Seven Sages of the Red King

Chapter 181: Ahh Apep, One of the Seven Sages of the Red King

Find a group of mushroom beasts as helpers.

Nashida was a little confused when she heard this for the first time.

In her opinion.

If you want to face the Grass Dragon head-on, you must ask for help from a powerful foreign aid.

At least it has to be at the level of a god.

Even when Rhodes said he needed help, she had already locked in two people who could help her.

One is Morax, the rock god from neighboring Liyue, and the other is Fukaros, the water god from Fontaine.

Morax needs no introduction.

The oldest existing demon in Teyvat, he gained a notoriety during the Demon War and was a top demon who used force to suppress and expel all the demons in Liyue.

If he is willing to help, he will definitely be the best help in finding Apep.

As for the water god Fucarus of Fontaine.

This person is relatively younger, a second-generation demon god who is the same age as Nashida.

But she had been the water goddess for five hundred years and her faith was much stronger than mine. In any case, she was much stronger than I am now.

However, Rhodes said that he did not need the help of God.

Nashida did not question Rhode at the first moment. Instead, she thought for a moment and asked, "A mushroom beast related to Apep?"

"Ah."

"strictly speaking."

"These are not mushroom beasts."

Rhodes told Nashida what he knew.

The kind of mushroom beast he was looking for.

In fact, they are not real mushroom beasts, but the grass dragons that once lived in Apep's body. They just look the same as mushroom beasts.

Different from those fungus beasts that evolved from spores.

These grass dragons, like Apep, are genuine elemental life forms.

Although their body structure resembles that of mushroom beasts, their essence is still the flow of elements.

Same with Apep.

These grass dragon people were also contaminated by forbidden knowledge.

There is another thing that is the same.

The people of Apep also have top-notch adaptability to the natural environment.

Therefore, they were not tortured by the contamination of forbidden knowledge and did not develop symptoms of madness like Tevarin. After a long period of evolution, they, like Apep, successfully adapted to the forbidden knowledge in their bodies and achieved a balance between elemental power and forbidden knowledge.

And through their observations, they confirmed that the mushroom beast form was the most suitable form for the current environment.

So these grass dragon people took the initiative to change their appearance, gradually evolved into the appearance of mushroom beasts, and gradually integrated into the mushroom beast clan.

It is precisely because of this.

When the forbidden knowledge was eliminated, they showed the same symptoms as Apep.

That is, a huge cavity appears in the body, which blocks the flow of elemental force, and then causes a series of sudden symptoms such as fainting and mania.

If you put it in normal times.

It is difficult to tell the real difference between the grass dragon people and the mushroom beasts.

But now it’s easy to find.

By then, with the help of these grass dragon people, it will be much safer when we get close to Apep.

And there was one more thing Rhodes didn't say.

That is, if something unexpected happens to the fire while treating Apep, these grass dragon people can help fill the vacancy of the fire and help Apep recover with their own strength.

It can be said to be a double insurance.

After learning about these situations.

Nashida immediately took the initiative to contact Lannaro in the rainforest and asked the tribes of the grass god's followers to help find if there were any mushroom beasts that met these characteristics. She also notified a group of thirty people to help search.

Then it was time to wait.

Nashida during this period.

In addition to continuing to use elemental power to nourish Patisalan, who was transformed from the Great Compassion Tree King, she also paid attention to Rhodes' condition.

because she found out.

Ever since the idea of ​​saving Apep was proposed.

Rhodes has been in a bad mood.

There were several times when he seemed to have something to say to me, but in the end he forced himself to hold it back.

If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't read Rhodes' mind.

Nashida would definitely not be able to resist but to see what he was struggling with at the moment!

This atmosphere lasted for a while.

Seeing that Rhode was still hesitant, Nashida couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "You seem to have something to say. There's no outsider here, so just say it. Although I'm not very powerful, I'm still a god of Xumi. I can still help you with most things."

"."

Rhodes glanced at her, then shook his head without saying anything.

"???"

The more he behaved like this, the more puzzled Nashida felt.

Rhodes is not the kind of person who would hide things and not dare to say anything when he encounters something.

So how he's performing now.

This means that the trouble he encountered might be something that even a god like Little Auspicious Grass King would find difficult to resolve.

What exactly is going to happen?

"Even if it's a problem I can't solve, you should tell me first, and then we can think of a solution together. If you keep it to yourself, it will only cause you more trouble. There's no benefit."

Nashida advised again.

After she said this.

Rhodes then sighed and said gloomily, "I may not be able to go with you to see Apep."

"Ok?"

Nashida blinked. "Why?"

"Because I inherited the power of the Red King's followers from the descendants of the Red King's priests."

Rhode said with a tangled look on his face, "Do you remember what I told you? Apep was fooled by the Red King. When she was about to lose control of the forbidden knowledge in the desert, she swallowed the Red King's body full of forbidden knowledge, and she was almost tortured to death. The reason why the grass dragons we are looking for fled is because when the grass dragon swallowed the forbidden knowledge, the environment in its body suddenly changed from a safe and comfortable dreamland to a terrifying doomsday disaster. Those grass dragons had to flee their homes. I am a little worried."

As smart as Nashida was, she quickly figured out from Rhodes' words what he was worried about.

"Are you afraid that the Grass Dragon will notice the demonic power in you and lose control of his hatred?"

talking.

Instead of trying to help Rhodes, Nashida burst out laughing.

"why are you laughing?"

"Do you have a solution to this problem?"

Nashida's sudden laughter made Rhodes feel a little puzzled.

At the same time he began to guess.

Nashida looked like she really had a way to solve the problem of having a chance to drive Apep crazy if she ran into him.

What method will she use?

Ask another god to help? Or just talk big?

However, Nashida's subsequent answer was different from the solution Rhodes had thought of.

This is what she said: "Who told you that the power of Hermanubis is the power of the Red King?"

"what?"

This unprecedented answer made Rhodes confused.

Isn't the power of Hermanubis the power of the followers that the Red King bestows upon his own priests?

For an instant.

Rhodes' mind was full of thoughts.

He suddenly realized that if what Nashida said was right, then he had fallen into a huge misunderstanding when treating the divine power given by the priests.

That's taking it for granted!

In Rhodes's original idea.

The priest of the Red King, such an important position must be held by the Red King's followers. As the Red King's followers, the Red King will definitely bestow the gods' gifts as rewards and inheritance.

That's why Rhodes always believed that the power of Hermanubis was the power bestowed by the Scarlet King.

For this reason, he has always regarded himself as the orthodox Red King's messenger, and has never even doubted whether this power is the power of the Red King.

Nashida's explanation once again came at the right time.
