Genshin Impact: The Journey Begins with a Battle

In the morning, the sky was clear and the villages and towns returned to their usual bustle.

"Good morning, Mei Miko and Kikyo Miko!"

……

General Lei Dian and Kikyo left their temporary residence and walked towards the newly established military camp. The villagers looked at them with admiration and kept greeting them.

General Lei Dian and Kikyo nodded with a dignified attitude. The six or seven days of helping to treat the wounded had already established a huge prestige for the two.

In this era of backward medical conditions and equipment, the two were like miracle doctors. It seemed that no matter how serious the injury was, it could be healed in their hands.

"Mei, Kikyo, you are here! The daimyo in the city sent his retainer to meet you and discuss something."

General Raiden did not have many doubts at this moment, and asked calmly:"Is the daimyo's retainer in the barracks now?"

"Well, Priest Tanaka has already met with two monks from Keiti Temple in the military camp."

"Thank you for the notification!"

General Raiden nodded and walked towards the military camp with Kikyo. According to the witch, the one who could meet the retainer must be a capable practitioner, and the witch who notified him obviously had not had time to awaken her spiritual power.

""Mistress, you are finally here. Master Jiaohui has been waiting for you for a long time."

The soldier standing guard in the barracks enthusiastically led General Lei Dian and the other man to a more luxurious house, where a gray-haired old man was meticulously telling something to Priest Tanaka.

"I am Jiao Hui, the envoy this time. You two are Mei Hokusatsu and Kikyo, the shrine maidens who came out to train at the Narugami Taisha Shrine. You are really famous for a long time!"

Jiao Hui's retainer said to General Raiden and Kikyo with a pleasant expression, but he was more respectful to General Raiden. After all, those who can have a surname must be of noble origin, although he didn't know which country the nobles were from.

"My Lord, you are too modest. We are just the shrine maidens with relatively famous medical skills in Mingjin Taisha. We can't really be called famous!" After hearing what General Lei Dian said, Jiao Hui's eyes lit up and he said in a sincere manner:"To be honest, I am asking you two to help me treat my young master."

"The previous head of the family had countless mages and Yin-Yang masters transferred away because of the war, which led to them being harmed by monsters, leaving only the young master to inherit the throne, but he also suffered pain and torture."

"Please help me, two witches."

The more Jiaohui spoke, the more miserable he became. He exuded a miserable aura. Coupled with his endless requests, General Lei Dian was unable to refuse.

"Saving the dying and the wounded is one of the duties of our maidens of the Mingjin Taisha Shrine. We will definitely save your young master."

The retainer of Jiaohui was very happy. He wiped away his tearful look with the corner of his clothes and ordered his men to prepare for the return journey.

An hour later.

General Lei Dian, Kikyo and the two monks rode on horses and, led by a team of elite soldiers, advanced along a relatively open area.

With the breeze blowing on her face, General Lei Dian sat on the horse and looked at the vibrant vegetation around her. For her now, the end of the journey was not important, but the scenery along the way was more important.

The team was not moving very fast. The team was not purely cavalry. There were more than 30 soldiers following on foot, and there were also retainers of Jiaohui sitting in sedan chairs.

It was impossible for everyone to ignore this elderly retainer of Jiaohui. Whether entering the city or meeting the city lord, his identity certificate was required, otherwise the soldiers who maintained order would have to conduct strict inspections of the four practitioners.

Time soon came to night, and the team set up camp in a relatively open and flat place

"According to the map instructions, at our current speed, we will be able to reach the city when the sun sets tomorrow."

General Lei Dian took a map of this era, examined it with difficulty and analyzed it, and told Kikyo his judgment. After all, this place is surrounded by plains and there are lush trees in the distance.

Kikyo nodded and said calmly:"I didn't expect that 50 years have passed and the map is still so difficult to recognize."

When General Lei Dian put away the map and prepared to rest, Kikyo's ears moved slightly, and suddenly she felt the sound of trees falling in the distance outside the mountains and forests.

Kikyo's expression suddenly condensed, picked up the bow and arrow from the ground next to her and said:"There is the breath of monsters, no, there is also the death of the dead."

General Lei Dian was not panicked. After all, her current identity is a priestess who is good at magic weapons. She will see whether those monsters can break through the talisman defense around her.

"What's wrong? Lord Kikyo?"The soldier asked hurriedly when he saw Kikyo suddenly picking up a weapon.

"A monster is coming"

""Ah?!"

The soldiers suddenly became panicked. Facing the monsters, the soldiers were naturally very scared and hurriedly shouted to their companions in the temporary camp.

The two monks also came to Kikyo in confusion and followed her eyes to look into the distance.

Boom~

Boom~

Crack~

After a while, the ground began to shake violently, as if a heavy object was hitting the ground, and at the same time, the sound of trees breaking came from the distant mountains and forests.

Groups of monsters fled madly from the mountains and forests, making the monks feel like they were facing a great enemy. They quickly set up a barrier around them to protect the soldiers around them.

Kikyo bent her bow and drew her arrow, with the tip of the arrow pointing directly at the group of monsters that were madly approaching her group.

Releasing the bowstring, the arrow carried a strong white magic-breaking spiritual power, instantly purifying a group of monsters led by the Minotaur, and even affected several groups of monsters next to them.

"Such a powerful spiritual power......"

The monks who set up the barrier were shocked by Kikyo's spiritual power, and the soldiers were horrified.

Under Kikyo's powerful magic-breaking arrows, the endless stream of monsters quickly disappeared from sight, just like shadows under the sun.

The monsters, who were dominated by instinct and possessed spiritual intelligence, rushed around the camp as if they had seen the god of plague. After all, the stubborn ones had disappeared. The small monsters trembled under Kikyo's powerful magic-breaking arrows and dared not attack the camp, but General Lei Dian was not as relaxed as before.

Because the ground was shaking very close to his group, the unknown monster on the opposite side had already climbed over the hill, and everyone could see its huge body looming.

"What kind of monster is that?"

The soldiers began to panic. Even though they were still several miles away from the figure, the figure that looked three or four meters tall from a distance was frightening.
