Chapter 23: The Power of the Incineration Shadewalker, the Traveler is Shocked

[Paimon: We definitely don't want to place an order at your Wangsheng Funeral Parlor! A monster of mere hilichurls level, the Traveler can definitely defeat it very easily.]

[Ningguang: Perhaps it won't be that simple. Luo Feng only said the Blaze Out of Space is equivalent to a hilichrls in the Universe, but he didn't say the Blaze Out of Space is equal to a hilichurls.]

[Kamisato Ayaka: Indeed. Considering the entire star-filled Universe as a reference, perhaps the Blaze Out of Space is much stronger than a hilichurl.]

[Kaeya: An unknown enemy must be handled with caution. Little Paimon, you'd best remind the Traveler. It wouldn't be good if something big and troublesome happened accidentally.]

[Paimon: Is that really necessary? That Blaze Out of Space doesn't look very strong.]

[Chongyun: Earlier, when the Traveler fought Stormterror, she indeed showed remarkable strength. She should have no problem dealing with that Blaze Out of Space that doesn't look very imposing.]

[Dehya: A mere Blaze Out of Space the aura it emits is too different from Stormterror's. The Traveler will definitely defeat it easily. Go, Traveler! I've bet my entire fortune on you!]

[Candace: Dehya, at least keep a little of your fortune.]

[Dehya: Hehe, after all, no matter how you look at it, this is an opportunity to earn mora.]

[Nilou: I, I also bet on the Traveler. Traveler, you must do your best!]

[Dunyarzad: Nilou, you actually participated in gambling?]

[Nilou: I... I just wanted to save up some more mora. That way, next time the Sabzeruz Festival comes, we can build a better stage.]

[Dunyarzad: It was for this...]

[Grand Sage Azar: Hmph!]

"Traveler, please be careful."

Acting Grand Master Jean watched the Traveler walking towards the Blaze Out of Space and said worriedly.

Barbara and Klee also looked at Traveler Lumime worriedly.

"Don't worry, I still have some strength."

Traveler Lumine gave Acting Grand Master Jean and the others a big smile, then took a large leap and rushed towards the Blaze Out of Space from the air.

"Taste this."

The Traveler condensed a swirling vacuum vortex in her hand, turning it into a powerful Anemo elemental impact that struck the Blaze Out of Space.

Such an attack, in the eyes of the Genshin from Teyvat, was a commendable strike.

However, when this commendable strike from the Teyvat people landed on the Blaze Out of Space...

The Tivat People were surprised to find that the attack did not cause any ripples on the Incineration Shadewalker.

Traveler Lumine's eyes widened as she looked at the scene in disbelief.

But before she could even speak...

The Blaze Out of Space, which had been attacked, retaliated.

A giant fireball flew rapidly towards Traveler Lumine from between the Blaze Out of Space's hands.

As it drew closer, Traveler Lumine could even smell the scent of death from this fireball.

Damn it, this is not a monster of the hilichurls level at all.Traveler Lumine cursed Luo Feng in her heart and quickly condensed vast Anemo elemental power onto her single-handed sword.

"Gust Surge!"

Traveler Lumine swung her blade fiercely towards the fireball in front.

The vast Anemo elemental power condensed on the sword transformed into a tornado about half a meter in diameter and ten meters long, colliding with the fireball in front.

Boom!

Accompanied by a loud bang.

The energy of wind and fire caused a violent explosion in the air.

Traveler Lumine was also pushed backwards by the impact of the explosion.

[Dehya: Wait, is this development a bit off?]

[Arataki Itto: This Traveler was actually repelled by a hilichurls? Is she that weak?]

[Kuki Shinobu: Boss, the Traveler was able to summon the previous tornado, her strength is definitely not weak. The problem is that Blaze Out of Space

[Dori: Many people bet on the Traveler to win. Now it seems I, as the bookmaker, am going to make a fortune.]

[Nilou: G-Go, Traveler!]

"Traveler, are you okay?"

Paimon came to the Traveler's side and looked worriedly at Traveler lumine, who was breathing heavily after landing on the ground.

"If you really cared about me, you wouldn't have let me fight that guy just now."

"What kind of ordinary monster is this?"

Traveler Lumine looked at the Blaze Out of Space directly in front, which was completely unaffected by the previous explosion, and complained.

Let alone being injured.

At this moment, the Blaze Out of Space was even condensing a stronger, larger fireball in its hands.

Its entire body was also engulfed in substantial flames.

As if any creature that approached it would be burned to ash.

"B-But Luo Feng said this Blaze Out of Space was very ordinary."

"I didn't know it was this strong."

Paimon finished speaking aggrievedly, then turned her head and glared fiercely at Luo Feng.

"I wasn't lying, Little Paimon."

"TheBlaze Out of Space is indeed a very ordinary existence for the entire Universe."

"In fact, I even think comparing it to a Universe version of a hilichurls is overestimating it."

"Perhaps I should compare it to a slightly stronger Universe version of a Hilichurl."

Luo Feng said with a smile.

"What Universe version of a Hilichurl? You're deliberately making things difficult for us!"

Paimon stamped her foot and said.

"I'm not making things difficult for you."

"Besides, instead of chatting with me,"

"It's better to face the Blaze Out of Space properly."

"Look, its attack is already here."

Luo Feng said.

"What?"

Paimon turned her head in surprise and immediately saw a giant fireball already approaching.

"Be careful!"

Acting Grand Master Jean flashed in front of Paimon and, together with Traveler Ying, channeled Anemo elemental power to disperse the giant fireball.

They prevented Paimon and Traveler Lumine from being blown away.

"Acting Grand Master Jean, you're helping too!"

Paimon said delightedly.

"This Incineration Shadewalker is very strong."

"I think it's best if I contribute."

Acting Grand Master Jean nodded and glanced at the leisurely Luo Feng next to her.

Acting Grand Master Jean: "Luo Feng, it should be okay if I join this battle, right?"

Luo Feng: "Of course, no problem. My Blessing covers everyone present. Anyone who joins the battle will increase their probability of stepping onto a Path."

Barbara: "I'll help heal everyone."

Klee: "Klee wants to help too."

Luo Feng smiled and nodded.

He originally had no intention of letting the Traveler face the Blaze Out of Space alone.

The current Traveler is still very weak. Even against the Blaze Out of Space, it's impossible to do it with just their own strength.

From the start, Luo Feng planned to have Lumine, Jean, Barbara, and Klee work together to deal with theBlaze Out of Space.

And increase the probability of the four of them stepping onto a Path through battle.For him, no matter which of the four steps onto a Path, he wouldn't lose out.

[Dori: The bet is over. Traveler vs. Blaze Out of Space. The loser is the Traveler. Hehe, thank you all for participating enthusiastically!]

[Dehya: Wait, the battle isn't over yet. Why did we lose?]

[Dori: The bet clearly states it's Traveler vs. Blaze Out of Space, not Traveler, Acting Grand Master Jean, and others vs. Blaze Out of Space. The moment Acting Grand Master Jean and others joined the fight, the Traveler lost.]

[Nilou: How could this happen! My stage!]

[Arataki Itto: Good thing I didn't place a bet.]

[Kuki Shinobu: You don't have any extra mora at all, boss.]

[Dori: Now opening a new bet: Traveler, Acting Grand Master Jean, Barbara, Klee vs. Blaze Out of Space. Please place your bets enthusiastically, hehehe.]

[Kaeya: The Traveler plus Acting Grand Master Jean and them? I think I can place a bet this time.][Ningguang: I'll just place a small bet of ten thousand mora on Acting Grand Master Jean and the others.]

[Yae Miko: Acting Grand Master Jean plus the cute Traveler, it's indeed worth betting on.]

[Dehya: Ten thousand mora?! Ningguang from Liyue is too rich! Both Ningguang from Liyue and Yae Miko from Inazuma are betting on Acting Grand Master Jean and the Traveler... Candace, lend me some mora.]

[Candace:...]

[Furina: Hmph hmph, Neuvillette, help me place a bet too. I want to bet on Acting Grand Master Jean and them!]

[Neuvillette: Pay for it yourself.]

Luo Feng watched the Tivat People in the forum constantly betting on Acting Grand Master Jean and the Travelers to win, finding it increasingly interesting.

"Although the Incineration Shadewalker is weak, that's only relative to the Universe."

"For the Teyvat Continent, it's still very strong."

"Should I also take this opportunity to place a bet, and buy the Incineration Shadewalker to win?"

Luo Feng muttered.

Chapter 24: Are Vision Holders This Powerless? The Monsters in the Universe Are Too Strong!

In the end, Luo Feng still didn't place a bet.

If he placed a bet, it would be like giving spoilers to the Tivat People.

This would be somewhat unfair to Dori, who started the bet, and those who placed bets earlier.

Besides, he didn't have any mora on hand to place a bet with.

After deciding to maintain a wait-and-see attitude towards both the battle and the betting.

Luo Feng found a vantage point and leisurely watched the battle between Jean, the Traveler, and others, and the Blaze Out of Space.

"Keep fighting, everyone in Teyvat."

"If you don't hurry."

"You will face more enemies."

Luo Feng muttered to himself, turning his head to glance at a Fragmentum in the distance.

As if sensing the battle here.

Some Fragmentum Monsters there even began rapidly approaching this location.

It probably won't be long before more Blaze Out of Space join the battlefield.

Just one Blaze Out of Space made it so difficult for Jean and the others to handle.

Luo Feng could imagine what kind of expressions they would have when they saw more Blaze Out of Spacer.

That's right, even with Acting Grand Master Jean, Klee, and Barbara joining in.

The situation didn't improve much.

After Jean and the others coordinated with the Traveler to launch an attack on the Blaze Out of Space.

The Blaze Out of Space actually summoned three flying bird-shaped monsters seemingly entirely composed of flames out of thin air—Flamespawn.

For Jean and the others, the already powerful Blaze Out of Space, combined with the three Flamespawn.

Made the situation even more difficult.

Even though Jean and Klee were very strong.

And Barbara was providing healing.But as time passed, the Traveler and the others actually slowly fell into a disadvantage.

In contrast, the Incineration Shadewalker, although damaged, seemed to be in a much better state than Jean and the others.

[Arataki Itto: Well, this monster can even call for backup? How cunning!]

[La Signora: Speaking of cunning, isn't it more cunning for Jean, Barbara, and others to fight with numerical superiority?]

[Grand Sage Azar: So many people fighting a Universe-level hilichurls, and they're actually at a disadvantage? Did I misjudge, or are the Knights of Favonius weaker than I imagined?]

[Ningguang: Jean, the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, is by no means a weak warrior. Her strength is excellent, even when looking at the entire Teyvat Continent.]

[Alhaitham: Any warrior can see that Acting Grand Master Jean, the Traveler, Klee, and the others are definitely not weak.]

[Tartaglia: There's only one answer: the Blaze Out of Space is even stronger than we imagined!]

[Dehya: How could this happen, didn't I lose again?]

[Candace: You didn't place a bet. I didn't lend you any mora, Dehya.]

[Dehya: That's, that's great. Good thing you didn't lend me any mora, Candace.]

[Furina: I, I'm glad I didn't actually place a bet!]

[Kaeya: This is truly troublesome. Is my month's salary just gone like this?]

[Mona: The mora I painstakingly saved up, is it going to leave me?]

[Zhongli: Compared to mora, the power of theBlaze Out of Spacer is what should be noted.]

[Beidou: If the Blaze Out of Space were on the Teyvat Continent, it would be enough to threaten powerful Vision holders. If the Blaze Out of Space is truly just an ordinary monster in the Universe...]

[Ningguang: If that's truly the case, then Devil God-level monsters in the Universe are probably also very common existences.]

[Keqing: If these monsters from the Universe descend upon Teyvat... I hope this speculation isn't true.]

After being reminded by Zhongli and others, a considerable number of Tivat People instantly became tense.

Compared to losing mora in a bet, the things described by Zhongli, Ningguang, and others were truly fear-inducing.

Just an ordinary monster from the Universe, the Blaze Out of Space, could put Acting Grand Master Jean and others in crisis.

If some not-so-ordinary Universe monsters were to truly descend upon Teyvat.

Just thinking about the impact on Teyvat, a sense of urgency inexplicably arose in everyone's hearts

...

Mondstadt.

The "Angel's Share" tavern.

Normally, this time of day should be when this tavern, invested in by Diluc, has the best business and is the noisiest.

But now, the tavern was unusually quiet.

Only Kaeya, Diluc, Rosaria, Venti, and Albedo, who had come down from Dragonspine, were sitting beside a tavern table.

"Acting Grand Master Jean has already used her full strength."

"I wonder if Klee still has a bigger bomb she hasn't taken out yet."

"If they don't have any other means, this bet, which I've staked a month's salary on, will really be lost."

Kaeya said.

"I'm roughly aware of the bombs in Klee's backpack."

"There shouldn't be any bigger bombs in there."

"If it weren't for the light cone that Luo Feng provided to Klee, which summoned a shield to protect her."

"She might be as disheveled as Jean, the Traveler, and the others."

Albedo frowned tightly as he watched the battlefield displayed in the live stream.

"Klee's bombs are much weaker compared to usual."

"The commotion caused by Jean's wind is also significantly less."

"Could it be that that world is suppressing their power?"

Albedo's tone was full of doubt.

"That world is different from Teyvat after all. It's normal for the impact of Teyvat's power on that world to be different from its impact on Teyvat."

Venti said.

"You guys are really relaxed, still discussing these things now."

"Aren't you worried about the Incineration Shadewalker, or even more powerful monsters from the Universe descending upon Teyvat?"

Rosaria asked, crossing her arms.

"Oh dear, if possible, I really don't want to talk about this topic."

Kaeya sighed, supporting his forehead with one hand.

"Hmph, you all know it very well in your hearts."

Rosaria said.

"What can we do even if we know?"

"According to the current situation, the monsters from outside the Universe are too high level for Teyvat."

"If monsters from the Universe really descend on Teyvat."

"We can only wait for death, I guess."

Kaeya spread his hands and said.

"Although you say that, your eyes don't look like you're waiting for death, do they?"

Diluc said.

Kaeya shrugged and said:

"Heh, you still have to struggle if you should."

"Besides, didn't Luo Feng say?"

"Those who embark on a Path will have their power greatly increased."

"As long as more people in Teyvat embark on a Path."

"Even if the Blaze Out of Space stronger monsters than the Outer Universe Flame descend on Teyvat."

"Teyvat should be able to remain safe."

Albedo: "The premise is that Jean, Barbara, and Klee can truly embark on a Path, and that the Path truly possesses powerful strength as Luo Feng said."

Venti: "Believe in Jean and the Traveler. If the Path truly exists, they will definitely be able to embark on it."
