Chapter 183

While Dottore was speaking, the mechanical arm had already installed the last deck of the behemoth in front of him.

"Next is to charge this Gnosis." Dottore took out a purple chess piece; this chess piece looked very similar to a Gnosis.

But it was a Gnosis filled with an evil and ominous aura. In Dottore's words, this is a Delusion.

It is a fake Gnosis he made by imitating the Gnosis. For Dottore, making a Delusion is not very difficult; the problem is the energy source. If it is just Archon residue and Archon resentment like a Delusion, it is far from enough.

This time, coming to Sumeru, Dottore set his sights on forbidden knowledge.

If forbidden knowledge erupts like it did thousands of years ago, I think the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles will not be able to stand by, right?

By that time, does she have the ability to solve this matter?

Based on Dottore's understanding of the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, for such a thing that could collapse the entire Teyvat continent, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles cannot sit idly by. At that time, the other party is very likely to fall into weakness because of this.

As for what to do if the Teyvat continent really collapses?

Isn't that simple? Just join the Abyss!

Anyway, for a person like Dottore, whether it is becoming a Fatui in Snezhnaya or joining the Abyss, there is actually not much difference.

The key is his own interests.

Dottore placed the Delusion on the instrument in front of him, then took out the canned knowledge he had prepared before, and began to inject forbidden knowledge into the Delusion. The process was very smooth, which also made Dottore happy.

Sure enough, it succeeded. Then let me see to what extent that guy Scaramouche can do.

"You said that the Grand Sage previously sent the Eremites and the Fatui together to search for forbidden knowledge in the desert, and through canning, brought these forbidden knowledge back as canned knowledge?" Cyno was completely confused after hearing the words of Alhaitham in front of him.

Canned knowledge is already forbidden in Sumeru, and adding forbidden knowledge, this is not a simple one plus one problem.

As the Grand Sage, how could Azar do such a thing?

"He even handed over Sumeru's city defense to the Fatui. Do you think there is anything he cannot do?" Alhaitham crossed his arms and said in a cold tone: "What we need to consider now is not why Azar would do this, but how to stop him."

"If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't solve this matter alone, I wouldn't have come to find you."

Cyno frowned upon hearing this. Regarding Azar handing over part of the city defense to the Fatui, as the General Mahamatra, he was also quite resistant.

Where is there a country that would hand over its own country's city defense?

This is simply outrageous.

If other countries knew, their Sumeru would become the laughingstock of every country.

But Azar did so, and Cyno did not have much power to stop it.

Moreover, others supported Azar's behavior.

Because of the Fatui's joining, Sumeru's situation did indeed improve a lot; at least those monsters were eliminated quite a bit.

But now Alhaitham told him that Azar and the others were attacking forbidden knowledge, which also made Cyno fall into deep thought.

"I will investigate it clearly." Although he was very unwilling to admit it, Cyno really did not believe in the integrity of Azar and the others. The most critical thing is that he did not understand; Azar could not possibly not know the harm of forbidden knowledge.

Over the years, the Akademiya has also been investigating the truth of the Withering Zone, discovering that it is related to forbidden knowledge, but the former Dendro Archon, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, explicitly forbade the study of forbidden knowledge.

So what exactly is Azar trying to do?

If Azar is really studying some messy things, then he must absolutely not sit still and wait for death.

"I advise you not to act rashly. Nowadays, there are not only Eremites in Sumeru, but also a large number of Fatui." Seeing Cyno wanting to leave excitedly, Alhaitham reminded him.

"The person who told me this is you, and the person who doesn't let me investigate this is also you. What exactly are you trying to do?" Cyno stared at Alhaitham and said coldly.

His relationship with Alhaitham was not good to begin with.

But Cyno also knew that the other party could not be shooting at nothing in these matters.

"Neither I nor you can solve this matter, and we may even encounter danger and pay the price of our lives. So this time, I want to invite you to find someone with me, someone who can answer all doubts." Alhaitham said in a serious tone.

"Who?" Cyno was a bit confused. Do they have such a person in Sumeru?

Why didn't he know?

It couldn't be going directly to ask Azar, right?

The other party couldn't possibly tell them the whole truth, right?

"Lesser Lord Kusanali!" Alhaitham spat out these five words unhurriedly.

"What?" Cyno was shocked this time. To be honest, if Alhaitham hadn't mentioned Lesser Lord Kusanali at this time, Cyno would have really forgotten about her.

Oh right, they still have a Dendro Archon in Sumeru.

"According to my investigation, for these five hundred years, Lesser Lord Kusanali has been imprisoned in the Sanctuary of Surasthana by the Akademiya."

"At this time, we must have the power and fame to investigate the Akademiya, and we must rescue Lesser Lord Kusanali." Wisdom flashed in Alhaitham's eyes.

Originally, he didn't want to pay much attention to these things, but Azar and the others didn't act like humans.

They actually started studying forbidden knowledge.

He highly suspected that if Azar were allowed to continue like this.

Sumeru is very likely to be finished. He just wanted to study quietly. Damn Azar.

So at this time, they must rescue Lesser Lord Kusanali; at least she is the true orthodox one.

"Lesser Lord Kusanali?" Cyno hesitated for a while upon hearing this, and then agreed. Sumeru is the country of the Dendro Archon; they are always right to go see Lesser Lord Kusanali.

Moreover, if the Dendro Archon is really imprisoned, then they indeed need to rescue her.

This is the responsibility of the General Mahamatra. He didn't know before that Lesser Lord Kusanali was imprisoned.

"Are you looking for me?" At this time, a sweet voice appeared beside them. This time, Alhaitham and Cyno discovered that there was a little girl beside them, and they didn't know when she had appeared.

How did the other party do it?

"Are you Lesser Lord Kusanali?" Alhaitham's gaze flickered slightly. Although he was asking, his tone was extremely certain.

"What?" Cyno was also looking at Nahida with a confused face upon hearing this. Is this their Sumeru's Dendro Archon?

Quite cute...

It's just that there is a big gap from the image of the God of Wisdom in his mind.

However, this wise look should not be wrong.

"I am Nahida! Of course, I am also the Lesser Lord Kusanali you speak of." Nahida looked at Alhaitham and said: "I didn't expect that Scribe Alhaitham would find the truth of the matter."

"Originally, I thought it would take a lot of effort to invite you to help me stop Azar's plan. His behavior is destroying Sumeru. Now it seems that I can save a lot of words."

"According to my investigation, Lesser Lord Kusanali, you should be trapped in the Sanctuary of Surasthana, right?" Alhaitham asked with some confusion.

Could it be that his investigation was wrong?

This Lesser Lord Kusanali was not imprisoned?

"I was indeed imprisoned before, that's correct, but I am a god after all." Nahida's eyes flickered, implying something: "During this period, the Withering Zone increased and the Eleazar worsened, forcing me to come forward to solve these problems."

"Moreover, Alhaitham, you are right. Azar and the others are doing some experiments that will destroy Sumeru."

"The Fatui dare not do experiments in their own country, but Azar is trying. When the time comes, regardless of whether his experiment succeeds or not, Sumeru will likely be finished."

"What kind of experiment is it?" Alhaitham did not doubt Nahida's statement that she had to come forward.

After all, the other party looks like a little girl, but she is still the Dendro Archon, still the God of Wisdom. It should be very difficult to completely trap her, right?

It's just that now is the time when the other party has to come forward.

"What does Azar want to do with forbidden knowledge?" Cyno also couldn't help but ask.

"They want to use forbidden knowledge to create a god, a god commanded by humans, a god created by humans." Nahida did not hide it, but instead observed the reactions of the two silently.

According to Nahida's own plan, these two will become her right-hand men in the future.

Perhaps Alhaitham and Cyno do not have much faith and loyalty to her, but in Nahida's view, it is not important.

As the Dendro Archon, she can just allow them.

As long as she does well enough, she believes that in the future, they will also acknowledge her as the Dendro Archon.

"Other gods cannot allow such things to happen, right?"

"I think this matter is a taboo for the Teyvat continent."

"Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, Sumeru is guilty for doing so." A glimmer of light flashed in Alhaitham's eyes, and he quickly analyzed the truth.

"Yes! Although the Geo Archon of Does Does Liyue, the Anemo Archon of Mondstadt, and the Raiden Shogun of Inazuma have been persuaded by me for the time being, we must solve this matter." Nahida said in a serious tone: "Other gods are not as easy to talk to as them."
