"Underestimating your enemies is a grave mistake."
Su Bai lightly tapped the table.
The Canned Memory instantly flashed with a light.
A projected image immediately appeared before everyone.
The scene slowly emerged.
The bustling metropolis instantly caught the attention of the Seven Archons.
Whether it was the World of Titans, the Goblin World, or the current Teyvat World,
they had never seen such a prosperous city.
However, accompanied by a piercing scream, everyone couldn't help but frown.
Humanity was defeated in the war against the viral parasitic organisms, the Gastrea, and was driven into narrow territories, barely surviving in fear and despair.
They erected giant monoliths to block the Gastrea's invasion.
And formed a unit to fight against the Gastrea.
Promoters, who were humans, fought the Gastrea alongside Damselettes born after being corroded by the Gastrea virus.
These Damselettes possessed strength superior to ordinary humans.
Most of the Damselettes had distinctly red eyes, and some, during combat, would have their eyes turn crimson.
However, when their power reached a certain level, they themselves would also undergo Gastrea transformation...
Therefore, they were called the Cursed Damselettes and were detested by the vast majority of people.
...
Chapter 61: The Soul's Dwelling Place Across Multiple Worlds, Su Bai's True Intentions
The light screen continuously flickered, displaying scenes from the other world.
This segment, featuring Su Bai's deductions about the development of the other world, was also a highly discussed part among the Teyvat audience.
Being in their own world yet able to see events in other worlds naturally sparked anticipation.
They would involuntarily evaluate the events happening there with their own thoughts and discuss them together.
But this time, they were stunned.
They didn't know what kind of emotions to face everything they saw with.
Anger, sorrow, or other emotions.
For a moment, it was as if the air of the entire world had solidified.
Innocent Damselettes bore the crucial responsibility of saving the world.
Each of them had an independent Promoter.
However, those Promoters merely used them as tools.
Whenever the Damselettes achieved good results in their battles against the Gastrea, the Promoters could use such merits to get promoted.
They were fighting desperately, while the Promoters waited for promotions and raises.
While bearing the immense responsibility of saving the world, they would also turn into monsters due to Gastrea transformation.
Fifty percent, what an easily reached number.
They didn't care about the Damselettes' fear of their own Gastrea transformation.
If the value couldn't be controlled, they only needed to pull the trigger, aiming at their heads before they completely transformed into Gastrea, and everything would be so natural.
Without Promoters, they could only find peace in the sewers, like stray cats and dogs.
They, however, could live happily in the bustling city, eating and drinking things the Damselettes had never seen.
And when they got angry, they would vent all their negative emotions onto them.
Punching and kicking, even if they were beaten to death, it was no big deal.
If that wasn't enough, some more radical ones would throw bombs at their gathering places.
Boom!
With just one loud boom, their hearts would instantly feel relieved.
It was a pity that, in the perception of these deceased Damselettes, a simple paper windmill toy was something they cherished greatly.
"Please kill me before I transform. I want to die as a human."
"Don't you have any friends? If possible, I can be your friend."
"..."
"Thank you."
"Oh, my eyes? They were filled with lead."
"My mother abandoned me when she gave birth to me. She hated my eyes."
"I can only survive by begging, so besides this smile, I don't know what kind of expression to show."
"I still have a younger sister to take care of."
"..."
"I need to go to the restroom, it might take a while..."
"..."
"I want to be a teacher..."
"I want to open a pastry shop..."
"I want to be a bride..."
"I want to open a flower shop..."
"I want to..."
"..."
Without so many thoughts, in their lives, all these ordinary ideals were just luxuries.
Bang!
The water cup in his hand instantly shattered.
The documents on Neuvillette's desk had, at some point, been crumpled into torn paper balls.
As the Hydro Dragon Sovereign of Fontaine, as the Chief Justice,
Neuvillette believed his emotions could remain as still as water.
But at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little broken.
He couldn't help but recall scenes from four hundred years ago.
The Melusine who sought him, trusted him, and prayed for a peaceful life.
Cute in appearance, pure in heart, diligent and meticulous in her work in Fontaine, doing her utmost.
"Carole..."
For some reason, Carole's petite figure appeared in Neuvillette's mind.
Looking at the light screen again, Neuvillette's gaze fell on Focalors, who was in a meeting.
"I beg you, Focalors from that side, use your wisdom to convince my counterpart there to obtain a Vision before Nahida embarks on her expedition."
"..."
Overcast clouds hung over Fontaine.
Furina stood by the window, watching the heavy rain outside.
This rain seemed to wash away the sadness she felt earlier when thinking of Focalors.
"So there are even more heartbreaking things happening in other worlds..."
Sumeru, Sanctuary of Surasthana.
Lesser Lord Kusanali, Nahida, clutched her heart in pain.
Her face showed some suffering.
"My counterpart in the Parallel Teyvat World, is she really going to that kind of world?"
"I..."
"Can I really save those children?"
She seemed to have forgotten that the expedition mission in the Parallel Teyvat World was to seize control of the world.
"My counterpart in that world, you can do it..."
