On Starsnatch Cliff.
Collei was diligently setting up her traps.
Having finally seized this opportunity, seeing the hope for revenge, Collei would not allow herself to fail due to underestimating the enemy.
"An elemental potion from the black market; I hope it won't disappoint me."
Collei looked at the glowing elemental potion in her hand, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
To increase her chances of success in her revenge,
she had spent all her savings.
For this act of vengeance, she was prepared to die together with her enemy.
Of course, if she could return alive, Collei had also decided to shamelessly stay at Springvale Farm.
"If I make it back alive, even if you chase me away, I won't leave."
Touching the farm teleport totem at her chest, Collei's gaze became even firmer.
At this moment, the demon god remnant suddenly spoke:
"Hey, are you really sure?"
"If you're not careful, you might actually die!"
Collei wiped the sweat from her forehead, looking at the perfectly set trap that had no flaws.
She smiled slightly and replied:
"Of course."
"So, if you want to live later, you better not stay behind."
"Whether I die or am captured again, your fate won't be much better than mine."
Inside Collei's body, the smoke-like form of the demon god remnant darkened several shades.
Despite being filled with resentment, the demon god remnant did not argue.
Because it knew Collei was right.
As a demon god remnant that had developed wisdom, if it were captured again by those madmen, its fate would be even more tragic than Collei's.
It would be sliced bit by bit, dissected and studied using all sorts of terrifying methods and means!
"Damn Fatui, I will tear you apart!!!"
Collei had a powerful backer, someone it couldn't afford to offend.
The demon god remnant could only vent all its anger on the Fatui, who were their enemies.
Collei hated and loathed the Fatui; didn't it hate the Fatui as well?
When it was without intelligence, it didn't feel anything.
But after gaining wisdom, the demon god remnant received the experimental memories of being placed on the operating table, feeling that it had suffered even more than Collei.
In its life, as a God, it was considered a major figure.
Yet, even in death, it could not rest in peace.
Not only was its grave dug up, but it was also excavated itself.
Thinking of the group of lunatics in the laboratory, the demon god remnant decided it must make itself burn brighter later.
On the other side.
The Missionary approached Starsnatch Cliff with his elite Fatui subordinates.
When he saw the figure on the mountaintop, a bright light burst in the Missionary's eyes.
His breathing became rapid.
Looking at the figure on the summit, it was as if he were looking at a precious treasure.
Even his subordinates behind him felt disgusted.
The Missionary looked sternly at his subordinates behind him and ordered:
"Lock down this entire area. Do not let anyone else approach!"
"Yes!!!"
Despite their internal grumbling toward their temporary leader, as qualified soldiers, these Fatui immediately began to execute the Missionary's orders seriously.
Watching his subordinates take action, the Missionary nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he eagerly ran toward the summit.
Not far from the Fatui's alert positions, Xing, Amber, and Eula were crouching in the grass, watching the Missionary running toward the mountaintop, and the familiar figure on the summit.
"What should we do?"
"If we get any closer, we'll be discovered."
"Let's observe the situation first. Don't act rashly."
"Your friend isn't that easy to defeat. We should only strike at the critical moment."
Knowing that what Eula said made sense, Xing and Amber suppressed the impatience in their hearts and patiently hid.
Eula looked at the Fatui guards ahead and felt a headache coming on.
"So many elite soldiers. Amber and I should be able to hold them all off together."
"As for Xing..."
She glanced at the Geo Vision on Xing's waist.
Eula was somewhat uncertain: "She should be able to team up with Collei to hold off the Missionary, right?"
Because she hadn't seen Xing fight, Eula wasn't sure about Xing's strength, but since she possessed a Vision, her combat power shouldn't be too far off.
At least that hilichurl wooden club looked quite fierce.
Behind Amber and the other two, on the fruit tree.
Diluc glanced at the figures of the three people clad in black robes, then looked at the Fatui guards who were patrolling, concealing his aura and preparing himself.
And behind Diluc.
Kaeya was hiding in the grass with a group of Knights under his command.
"The one in the tree who looks like a monkey must be Diluc, right?"
"Such obvious red hair, he should at least try to conceal it."
Kaeya commented.
"And the ones lying in the bushes, the one in the middle must be Amber."
"They're out undercover, and she even brought baron bunny. That's so unprofessional!"
If Amber knew Kaeya's complaints, she would surely wave her little fists angrily and retort:
"You're the unprofessional one!"
"baron bunny is my trump card."
"At a critical moment, I can even throw it out to distract the enemy and use the opportunity to slip away!"
A Knight behind Kaeya asked in a low voice:
"Captain Kaeya, when do we attack?"
"We've been looking at those Fatui with displeasure for a long time."
"Yeah, yeah."
Kaeya waved his hand.
The surrounding Knights instantly quieted down.
"The truly important main characters are meant to make a grand finale appearance."
"No rush."
"Let's watch a good show first."
"Oh, right, be vigilant!"
"Don't let us be watching the show here only to get ambushed ourselves."
"Yes!!!"
The small hill of Starsnatch Cliff was almost crowded with people.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind—nothing could describe this better.
On the surface, the Fatui held the advantage.
In reality, the three hidden groups were all on Collei's side. Everything was stable!
The demon god remnant looked at the Missionary's face, which brought back so many shadows, and couldn't help but shrink inside Collei.
Its originally smoky body condensed into a small ball.
The demon god remnant encouraged itself:
"Isn't he just a crazy experimental fanatic!"
"I have a big shot backing me up!"
Before Collei left, Arkz had left a mark on the demon god remnant inside her, allowing him to observe the situation with Collei.
At this moment, Arkz was sitting in the farm, leisurely munching on melon seeds and eating melons.
The moment the demon god remnant realized it was being watched by a powerful figure, it immediately stopped being timid.
"You scrub, come at me if you dare!"
The Missionary naturally couldn't hear what the demon god remnant was saying inside Collei.
In fact, all his attention was currently captured by Collei.
Nourished by the grand feast Arkz had prepared at the farm, Collei now, apart from being a bit short, showed absolutely no signs of being unhealthy.
And this abnormal state instantly caught the Missionary's attention.
