Genshin Impact: The Journey Begins with a Battle

After several hours of walking, General Lei Dian and his party arrived at a farmland.

"It seems that we are very close to the city where the lord is. This is the farmland under the lord's jurisdiction."

At this time, Jiao Hui's retainer swept away his fatigue and his expression suddenly became excited. After all, coming here means that we are very close to the city.

"Such a strong evil spirit!"

Kikyo's dignified and cold face showed a little doubt. With her perception, she naturally sensed the abnormality of this area, but because of the excitement of the old man in front of her and the ending of the previous daimyo of this country, she didn't say anything.

General Lei Dian's eyes were full of deep meaning. The crops in this field were so sluggish, which meant that there was something wrong with this place. What's more, this was a period of war between the two countries, which was a great blow to the people.

"Sister Miko, I always feel that this place gives me a sense of danger, as if countless evil monsters gather here."

Yingcao approached General Leidian with some fear. After all, she is a monster that has become a plant spirit, and her perception of the surrounding vegetation is many times stronger than that of humans.

"It doesn't matter, I will suppress them! They are just a bunch of rotten fish and shrimps."

General Lei Dian said to Yingcao calmly. This confident look made Yingcao feel at ease. After all, the priestess in front of her was able to fight against big monsters.

The team was moving very slowly. After all, when the wild skeleton was chasing the fragments of the Four Souls Jade on Yingcao's body, it caused the monsters in the mountains and forests to flee for their lives, and horses and other things were lost in the panic.

Otherwise, with the speed of this team yesterday, they would have arrived in the city at noon.

The two monks who were accompanying them seemed to have noticed something strange. After all, the sky that should have been clear was covered with thick dark clouds, and there was a faint miasma in it.

"Is it an illusion?"

"Didn't the demon be dealt with by the demon exorcist from the demon exorcist village?"

The two monks looked at each other in confusion. It was obvious that there was a big demon or a group of evil demons lurking around, otherwise it would not have formed such a huge coverage area.

"Beichen Witch, I see demonic energy in the dark clouds in the sky. There must be a lot of demons here. Do you have any accurate information?

The monk who had fought side by side with General Lei Dian came to her side and asked her. After all, if he said loudly that the demons had not been eradicated, it would ruin the reputation of this place.

"I saw some clues. There was a constant flow of miasma in the air on the mountain opposite the Tianshu Tower. It was obvious that there were a lot of evil monsters hovering in the belly of the mountain."

General Lei Dian nodded gently and told the monk the facts that could be easily seen in front of him.

The monk's face also showed a bitter look.

After all, the mountain was behind the destination of his group, and it would take two or three days to walk there.

The monk sighed slightly, and after seeing the indifferent look of General Lei Dian, he said goodbye to General Lei Dian and discussed the matter of exorcising evil spirits and slaying monsters with his junior brother again.

He had an illusion that the once prosperous city in front of him seemed to hide inexplicable dangers.

"What a perceptive monk."

General Lei Dian thought to herself.

She knew that the monk was trying to find a place where monsters gathered, and wanted to take her and Kikyo there to exorcise monsters.

But after seeing General Lei Dian's warning eyes, she gave up the idea.

After spending half an hour with the dawdling Jiao Hui retainer in the field, General Lei Dian finally arrived at the city built around the castle tower.

After entering the outer city gate that was four or five meters high, General Lei Dian saw neat and uniform streets, but most of the shops here were closed, and only a few shops that had to be open were struggling to stay open.

The pedestrians on the road were also a little listless, and from time to time there were violent coughs.

It was obvious that they were in poor health, which made General Lei Dian and his group of practitioners feel that the city was about to enter a sign of destruction.

But for rulers like Jiao Hui retainers, this was no different from usual. It was just that the monsters had just been expelled, and the citizens had not recovered from the shock. Who said that this was a war period, wasn't it a very normal thing?

""Please rest here for a while, miko and masters. I will take you to treat the lord after I report to him."

After Jiao Hui's retainer explained some matters to the generals of Thunder, he hurriedly walked towards the castle tower built on the hill. After all, it takes a lot of checkpoints to get to the castle tower where the lord is.

Otherwise, the castle tower would not be known as the last fortress of each country and could serve as the power center of each daimyo.

"I feel a strong miasma in this city, mixed with some demonic power, several times stronger than in the fields."

In the hall, Kikyo saw that the attendants around her had left, and said to General Lei Dian and the two monks. After all, it was obvious that there was a demon hiding in the city.

The two monks were also very clear about this, but the miasma constantly emanating from the mountains in the distance made them unable to determine it for a while, but after hearing Kikyo's words, the anxiety in their hearts was also settled.

"After hearing what Kikyo Miko said, I am sure there are monsters hiding in this city, but there are so many people in this city, how can we find them?"

"The monster was able to hide in the city, so it must have extremely good concealment methods and extremely strong strength. It is difficult for us to guarantee our own safety."

The two monks also expressed their doubts. After all, decades of experience have made them experienced and shrewd, with rich skills in dealing with things, but their strength is a little low.

Kikyo hesitated when she heard this. After all, there was a large area of miasma disturbing everyone's perception. If the other party was not near her, she would have no way to deal with it.

You know, it is impossible to set up a barrier or formation covering half of the city with her current strength. She turned her attention to General Lei Dian, but found that General Lei Dian was holding a piece of talisman paper. The army was in front of him.

Kikyo took the talisman paper handed to him by General Lei Dian. The pattern drawn on it was the evil spirit repelling talisman widely circulated in Japan. Judging from the marks on it, it was obviously drawn in recent days.

But it was this careful observation that made Kikyo's face serious, and the two monks next to him were also confused. They tore off a piece of talisman paper from the surrounding wall to observe it.

With their eyesight, it was obvious that this was a talisman drawn by a shrine maiden who had not awakened her spiritual power using the power of the gods, but they also found clues in their continuous observation.
