"Wait, the Oceanid Island?" Nahida froze upon hearing this.

"When Su Bai discussed wisdom with me, he did mention the Oceanid Island."

"Perhaps that Harbinger Grand Master you speak of truly has some connection with him."

"Su Bai killed eighty percent of the Oceanid Island resistance?"

"And personally killed his own companions?"

Buer was stunned.

"This is impossible. Su Bai is powerless; he..."

However, as if realizing something, Buer's pupils trembled violently.

"Could it be that after my death, he finally touched that thing?"

Kaeya: "Touched that thing?"

Diluc: "Mm, it must be Forbidden Knowledge."

Nahida: "That's impossible. Even the Dendro Dragon Apep cannot endure Forbidden Knowledge."

Apep: "That torment is unforgettable to me in this life. Let alone using Forbidden Knowledge, even merely resisting the pain it brings exhausted all my strength. Fortunately, with the appearance of the Reincarnation System, I discovered that torment has vanished."

Alhaitham: "Could it be because Mr. Su Bai is from another world that Forbidden Knowledge has no side effects on him?"

Lisa: "Did Teyvat reject Mr. Su Bai, just as it rejects Forbidden Knowledge? So Mr. Su Bai would not suffer side effects after contacting Forbidden Knowledge."

Nilou: "I think Mr. Su Bai certainly could not accept the departure of Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata, so he touched Forbidden Knowledge. Within Forbidden Knowledge, he found a way to save Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata."

Kamisato Ayaka: "No wonder Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata felt it was strange, thinking the time spent seeing Nahida had been too long. It must be that Mr. Su Bai deliberately delayed, dragging it on until he found a way to save Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata, before allowing Nahida to open Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata's final memory to meet her."

Skirk: "The truth must be Forbidden Knowledge. All the power Mr. Su Bai displayed is completely opposite to our Teyvat's power. I never expected the power of Forbidden Knowledge to be so terrifying."

Abyss Herald: "If the truth is truly as you say, wouldn't Su Ye be regretful to death?"

Dvalin: "How so?"

Abyss Herald: "Think about it. He previously avoided contacting Forbidden Knowledge, likely due to the precedent of the Scarlet King. Both he and Buer understood the terror of Forbidden Knowledge. Later, Buer's death drove Su Ye mad, causing him to begin researching Forbidden Knowledge. Suddenly discovering he would not be contaminated by Forbidden Knowledge, in that case, he should have a more effective method to eliminate Forbidden Knowledge."

Jean: "Yes. Putting it that way, isn't Mr. Su Bai regretting so much his intestines have turned green? If he had risked contacting Forbidden Knowledge earlier, he could not only have helped Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata eliminate Forbidden Knowledge, but Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata also would not have died from Forbidden Knowledge."

Navia: "I cannot imagine how painful it is to feel such grief because one's own mistake caused a lover's death."

A secret laboratory deep within the Sanctuary of Surasthana.

Su Bai, dressed in a mech suit, walked out of the laboratory.

On the mech's back, seven infusion tubes seemed to pierce into Su Bai's body.

"Is it convenient to move?"

The Tsaritsa, suppressing the tension in her heart, asked cautiously.

"Mm."

Su Bai lifted his arm and stretched his body.

"Everything is normal; it does not hinder movement."

"Give me the Gnosis."

Upon hearing this, the Tsaritsa handed her Gnosis and the Gnosis of the Pyro Archon of Natlan to Su Bai.

The next moment, the mechanism on Su Bai's chest automatically opened, and he placed the Gnoses inside one by one in order.

Two hollow infusion tubes on the back instantly lit up.

Immediately after, Su Bai's facial expression suddenly twisted, as if undergoing some pain.

The pain made him sweat profusely.

Fortunately, after a few breaths, Su Bai's heavy, gasping breathing slowly calmed down.

"Even you cannot bear this sudden power?"

"After all, five Gnoses are now augmenting you."

The Tsaritsa's gaze turned to the five energy transmission tubes behind Su Bai that had already lit up.

These are the authorities of five gods. Even I, I fear, could not bear the pain of having five authorities' power augmenting me together.

It is visible that to complete the plan, Su Bai must possess an incredibly firm will and belief.

"Unfortunately, all this is not power belonging to myself, so significant rejection is normal."

"But it doesn't matter. Under the transformation of this armor, I have already acquired the authorities of five gods."

"The remaining time is just waiting for Nahida and the others to emerge from consciousness. Once I take the last two Gnoses, I can head to the Irminsul."

Furina: "This... Just said he couldn't accept Teyvat's power, and then he goes and does this recklessly. Su Bai's twisted facial expression just now makes my heart ache. This damn system is insane; one look and you know Su Bai's fate won't be good again."

Furina: "Furina, don't get excited. Don't tear at Su Bai's clothes just because you're excited."

Lumine: "Fatal. (Covering face)"

Furina: "At least it proves Su Bai was indeed not someone who killed innocents recklessly in his past life. Although the ending might not be good, this isn't over yet."

Dottore: "A mech suit bearing the authorities of seven gods? What a wonderful product. Too crazy, simply too crazy."

Scaramouche: "Heh, you. At first, you deludedly tried to use your scrap slices to impersonate a reincarnator's clone. Your research is just like you: worse than trash."

Dottore: "Then why did you ask me to help you become a god?"

Scaramouche: "....."

The Tsaritsa quietly gazed at Su Bai's back.

For a moment, she was filled with countless emotions.

"You..."

She very much wanted to ask Su Bai whether doing this was truly worth it. Even if Greater Lord Rukkkhadevata was saved, given his condition, he would likely be unable to see the other party at all.

What is the meaning of doing this?

"What's wrong?" Su Bai asked softly.

"No, it's nothing."

The Tsaritsa pressed her lips together and shook her head lightly.

"Things have already reached this point; I think any more words would appear exceptionally pale and powerless."

"Mm."

Su Bai nodded slightly, a smile appearing on his face: "I'll go to Nahida and the others first."

"Take care."

Su Bai did not turn back, simply waving to the Tsaritsa as a farewell.

"Take care..."

The Tsaritsa continued to stare at Su Bai's straight figure.

She couldn't help but let out a laugh.

"Things have reached this state, yet you still have the mood to joke."

"'Take care,' you say, is that for the me of the new world?"

"Perhaps I should have replied, 'Have a safe journey'?"

Thinking thus.

The Tsaritsa put away her emotions, her expression becoming serious and solemn.

Emotions would only defile the resolve Su Bai had sacrificed.

The Su Bai of this moment needs no one to lament for him.

"Go, Knight..."

"You are not only the Knights of the Fatui."

"You are..."

The Knight of all Teyvat.

Chapter 95: The Answer to the Truth, Let the World Completely Forget Me

Through Scaramouche's act of erasing his own existence from Irminsul.

The people of Teyvat have already understood their own relationship with Irminsul.

As long as information within Irminsul is forcibly altered, the entire Teyvat will suffer severe deviations.

The most direct manifestation is that people's brains will forever be unable to remember this person's existence.

However, through Scaramouche's act alone, only memories were changed, without causing history itself to change.

Just as that phrase once appeared.
