"Mm!"
Nahida nodded gently.
She placed her fair, small palm in front of the blind Damselette.
Immediately after, a bright green light enveloped the blind Damselette.
Neuvillette looked at Nahida excitedly.
"Is this the power of the Authority that Lord Su Bai bestowed upon the Seven Archons, which Focalors mentioned?"
"It is indeed meant to save these poor children."
"..."
Chapter 65: A Rocky Start? Nahida Is Stunned
Inside the pipe next to the abandoned ditch.
Nahida and the Elemental Dragon Lord frowned even deeper.
The blind Damselette and her younger sister had, it turned out, always lived in such a filthy place.
The surrounding sewage was filled with a pungent odor.
Neuvillette couldn't stand the environment before him and, with a wave of his hand,
the abandoned ditch immediately glowed with a white-blue light.
The next moment, the originally murky, disgusting green water suddenly became clear and bright.
Originally, they were going to follow the blind Damselette to treat her sister.
But the Damselette vehemently stopped them.
Her eyesight had been restored by Nahida's Authority of Abundance.
When she untied the white cloth and opened her eyes, the blind Damselette was stunned.
She had truly regained her sight; a God had genuinely helped her heal her eyes.
What made her even more excited and happy was that, because she had been abandoned since childhood and had no name,
for convenience of future address, Nahida bestowed upon her the name "Qing Yin."
This made the Damselette extremely excited.
The God, this elven Damselette who looked about her own height, was truly a lofty God.
A God had descended into their world.
The moment she regained her sight, the moment she saw Nahida, the moment she knelt before Nahida in excitement,
a light slowly rose, condensing into a bright Vision.
This phenomenon did not particularly surprise Nahida and the others.
As Initiators, the Damselettes had access to pitifully few things.
Even Initiator Damselettes who followed Promoters were merely used as tools for promotion and salary increases, fighting for humanity.
It was precisely because of the pure and kind nature deep within their hearts that they could be used as combat tools by Promoters without complaint.
Therefore, the moment Nahida appeared before Qing Yin, the moment Qing Yin saw the God, she had already given her faith to Nahida.
Obtaining a Vision was merely an expected occurrence.
And from the moment she received the Vision, the Gastrea virus within Qing Yin's body underwent a qualitative change.
After her body inherited the virus's characteristics, the virus was completely eliminated.
Any Initiator Damselette who obtains a Vision will no longer have to worry about so-called Gastrea transformation.
Qing Yin did not allow Nahida and the others to enter the pipe where she lived with her.
To welcome a God in such a dilapidated place?
This was simply a blasphemy against the God.
She carried her sick sister out to see Nahida.
With Nahida's help, Qing Yin's sister was quickly healed.
Like Qing Yin, her sister also resonated with the Ley Line, gained its recognition, and obtained a Vision.
"Qing Yin's sister's illness was caused by the surrounding environment."
Afterward, Nahida and the Elemental Dragon Lords held a brief meeting.
"There must have been Gastrea viruses in the water that Neuvillette just cleaned. I sensed an acceleration of Gastrea virus infringement within Qing Yin's sister."
"I see." Neuvillette suddenly understood.
"Did you already understand the composition of the Gastrea virus during your contact with Qing Yin, Lesser Lord Kusanali?" asked the Dendro Dragon Sovereign, Apep.
Nahida nodded slightly: "When we Archons go on expeditions to other worlds, we receive the Authority blessings given by Lord Su Bai."
"Under normal circumstances, Lord Su Bai bestows seventeen Authorities upon us, allowing us to choose the appropriate ones to use based on the actual situation."
(Excluding the Authority of Procreation)
"These seventeen Authorities each have their unique aspects. Under the blessing of the Authorities of Intellect and Memory, I quickly analyzed the composition of these viruses and already know how to eliminate them."
"Of course, I also learned how to create Gastrea viruses."
"However, under the effect of the Authority of Abundance, these so-called viruses are nothing."
Paimon: "Eh!? This... Nahida actually obtained knowledge from outside the world?"
Lumine: "Ah... the Authorities Su Bai possesses are like cheat codes."
Furina: "As expected of Nahida, the God of wisdom of Sumeru! She doesn't forget to learn during her expedition to another world. My counterpart in the Parallel Teyvat World didn't have such an idea; I'm truly foolish. I should have used the Authority to learn something in the Goblin world as well."
"So what should we do next?" Neuvillette inquired.
Nahida replied: "The people of this world, having been defeated in their battle against the Gastrea, now have a smaller population than imagined."
"I can sense every person in the world through the Authority of Hunt."
"My former Gnosis was the terminal of the Sumeru Akasha. I can combine the knowledge gained from the former Akasha's establishment with the power of the Authority to draw the people of this world into a dream."
"Through the dream, I can issue divine oracles to them."
"Guiding more people to obtain Visions, and then join us in fighting the Gastrea."
"I think that as long as Vision wielders can exert their normal strength, they won't fear ordinary Gastrea."
"The remaining higher-level Gastrea will be up to you Dragon Lords to handle."
"Once the Gastrea are mostly cleared, I will clear the Gastrea virus from this world. I think by then, the Irminsul will be able to mature in this world."
Upon hearing this, the Seven Elemental Dragon Lords' expressions simultaneously froze.
They truly had not expected that the small Nahida before them could achieve such a feat.
However, an uneasy premonition simultaneously arose in their hearts.
Based on the content displayed in the canned memories, in this world, aside from the Damselettes who were Initiators, the hearts of almost all other humans had already become corrupted beyond repair.
Given the character of the humans in this world, could they truly gain the Ley Line's recognition and be bestowed with a Vision?
But since Nahida, as the leader, had already made a plan, the Seven Elemental Dragon Lords had nothing more to say.
They only needed to follow Nahida's arrangements.
As expected.
The audience of the Teyvat World did not express any surprise or astonishment at Nahida's battle plan.
Sumeru's Lesser Lord Kusanali was inherently a relatively pure and kind God.
Not to mention the Nahida of the Parallel Teyvat World.
She was imprisoned for five hundred years, did not meet Lumine who came to save her.
Nor did she experience the Sumeru God-creation plan.
She directly became the librarian of Celestia.
Compared to the Nahida of the Prime Teyvat World, her counterpart in the Parallel Teyvat World would be a bit more naive.
Although Su Bai had once led her to the world of giants, at that time, Nahida, apart from being shocked by Su Bai's Authority, did not seem to truly grasp Su Bai's purpose.
Just like this time, she also did not understand Su Bai's meaning.
[Viewing Chat Room]
Nahida: "Ugh! My counterpart in the Parallel Teyvat World went the wrong way."
Collei: "Lesser Lord Kusanali, you mustn't be discouraged! Your counterpart in the Parallel Teyvat World also doesn't know Lord Heavenly Principles' true intentions."
Zhongli: "The only ones who seem to know that Su Bai wants to use the Gastrea World as the underworld are Archon Asmodeus and Beelzebul."
Venti: "Eh heh, Beelzebul is so mean, not even secretly sending Nahida a message."
Raiden Ei: "Hmph! Minstrel, what are you laughing at? This matter is precisely Su Bai's way of wanting Nahida to grow. If I told her, wouldn't that ruin things?"
