Chapter 282 The Trial of the Script
"Once I fully master this star core, I should be able to recover 70% of my original power."
Eve sensed the star core within her body and made a rough estimate in her mind.
At this moment, Huanlong had completely lost the ability to move.
The withering that was originally in her abdomen was rapidly expanding and had spread to her limbs.
Eve is stripping away her vitality.
"The power of Jianmu has been... You, who exactly are you?" Huanlong struggled to raise his eyes and looked at Eve.
"Didn't you know that from the beginning?"
"I am the King of the Great Compassion Tree."
Eve uttered the familiar name, the name that was once widely known in Teyvat.
There was a sense of nostalgia in her tone.
She missed everything about Teyvat, but her adventures and journey were not yet over.
Even if it's fictional.
"Stop joking..." Huanlong shouted menacingly.
"You, you are... I remember now!" Huanlong looked at Eve's face, and she finally remembered.
"You are an honorary director of the company, but you, you are not the Great Tree King at all!"
“No, I am the Great Tree King,” Eve said slowly.
She approached Huanlong and said in a low voice:
Do you remember what I told you before?
"If Fenfeng dies, you will die, and so will you."
Upon hearing Eve's words, Huanlong's expression froze.
She then realized that she hadn't been joking when she said those words.
At this moment, the withering had climbed up her neck, and her life was about to come to an end.
"I... I'm not reconciled. My aesthetics journey isn't over yet..."
Just as the withering was about to completely devour her, suddenly, a huge cross came rushing from afar.
The cross gave off an indescribable eeriness, and Eve felt a strong sense of crisis.
Without the slightest hesitation, Eve instantly vanished from her spot, creating a safe distance between herself and the rapidly approaching cross.
With a "bang," the cross crashed down and stood beside Huanlong, emanating an eerie aura.
Before Huanlong could realize what was happening, a thin, white-clad man suddenly appeared beside him.
“Jianmu…” The gaunt man glanced at Huanlong, who was lying on the ground and about to wither.
“You are… Hu Lei!” Huanlong recognized Hu Lei from the gaunt man’s features.
"Great! It seems you've acquired the power of the ephemeral. Come help me..."
Before Huanlong could finish speaking, she was suddenly lifted up by the gaunt man and tied to a cross.
"What are you doing?"
The gaunt man did not respond to Huanlong, but only muttered to himself, "Jianmu..."
Eve, who was some distance away, also sensed that something was wrong.
This gaunt man was very strange.
Eve quickly wove a magic circle in front of her.
Instantly, a massive green beam of light shot out from the magic circle and blasted towards the gaunt man.
The gaunt man paid no attention to the beam of light, but focused his gaze on Huanlong.
The moment the beam of light struck, time seemed to freeze.
The gaunt man's body trembled slightly, and his fingernails suddenly grew at an astonishing speed, becoming as sharp and pointed as wolf claws.
With a flick of his arm, his fingernail drew an arc in the air, landing precisely in front of the beam of light.
With a hissing sound, the originally powerful green beam of light was as if it had been sliced open by a knife, and quickly split to both sides.
The gaunt man stood still, making no other move. His gaze was fixed on Huanlong, as if he were waiting for something.
"Once again, abundant power..."
Through a brief exchange, Eve discerned the opponent's true nature.
Although this man's abundant power was not as great as Huanlong's, his understanding of the techniques and concepts of using abundant power was far superior.
That's why he was able to break through Eve's beam of light.
Use the life energy in abundance to guide the life energy in Eve's beam.
He didn't actually cut the beam; he simply redirected it to another location.
Eve no longer hesitated and prepared to take him down immediately.
After all, she doesn't have much time left to maintain her Herrscher form.
Just as Eve was about to make her move, a sudden change occurred.
Suddenly, a wooden stake pierced Huanlong's abdomen, who was bound to the cross.
Her withered state was fading, while the gaunt man beside her extended his fingernails once more.
At this moment, March 7th and others also arrived.
"What is he doing?" March 7th screamed the moment she saw the gaunt man.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the gaunt man expressionlessly extended his finger, revealing that his nails had become exceptionally sharp, gleaming with a cold light.
"Judgment is coming..."
Without hesitation, he dug his nails into Huanlong's seemingly soft body, and then with a gentle cut, Huanlong's body was easily sliced open like tofu, and blood gushed out, staining the cross on his back red.
"What, what are you going to do?" Huanlong also showed a look of horror.
As the man moved, her body was divided into pieces, each piece emitting a faint glow.
However, what's even more chilling is that the man didn't stop; he actually put these cut fragments of the illusory world into his mouth one by one, accompanied by a crunching sound...
He began to chew.
