Chapter 190
Focalors: "If it were Egeria, she is not an Oceanid, she... wouldn't she really just turn into water?"
Nahida: "Then wouldn't I turn into a big tree?"
Alhaitham: "I dare not imagine, what a terrifying curse this is, actually causing the Seven Archons to degenerate."
Cloud Retainer: "Alas, let's watch slowly, there will be an answer sooner or later."
[Mondstadt is right next to Liyue.]
[Using sword flight, the three of them soon landed in Mondstadt.]
[Just after landing.]
[The foul, decaying aura immediately made Su Bai furrow his brows.]
[The scene in Mondstadt was no better than Liyue, even worse.]
[Not to mention the dilapidated houses on the street, even the most representative Anemo Archon statue in the City of Mondstadt seemed to have been destroyed by someone.]
[Collapsing on the ground, its head was shattered into pieces.]
[In the entire city, not even a shadow of a living person could be seen.]
Jean: "Impossible, Mondstadt... Mondstadt is actually worse than Liyue..."
Lisa: "Alas, it seems the Knights of Favonius headquarters, the Favonius Cathedral, or the Anemo Archon statue, all look like they have been attacked by someone."
Amber: "Too much, look at the pitch-black walls of the Knights of Favonius, they look like they have been scorched by fire."
Kujou Sara: "Uh, it wouldn't be done by you Mondstadt people yourselves, would it?"
Jean: "....."
Dvalin: "Because they found they couldn't be saved, they vented the anger in their hearts on the knights and the cathedral, alas..."
Eula: "This... it's a disgrace..."
Navia: "This is too scary, you can't even see a shadow of a person in the whole city; at least you can see Treasure Hoarders in Liyue."
Tianquan Ningguang: "At this time, the place where Treasure Hoarders can appear proves that there is still something they can snatch."
Collei: "In this apocalyptic situation, many people must have been unable to bear the mental torture and committed suicide, right?"
["This..."]
["I didn't expect Mondstadt to be even more... than Liyue."]
[Mondstadt's situation was even beyond the imagination of Ganyu and Seeing Shenhe.]
[They originally thought that Liyue's dilapidation and the departure of old friends were already heartbreaking enough.]
[Who could imagine that this free city-state now doesn't even have a shadow of a person to be seen.]
["Could they have gone to a shelter, or somewhere else?"]
["Also, I learned from Senior Brother before that the Anemo Archon Barbatos is someone who especially likes to drink and fall into a deep sleep."]
["In this situation, has he fallen into a deep sleep again?"]
[Seeing Shenhe's words were significantly more than before.]
[After all, the action at this time was to find her Senior Brother; in her eyes, compared to the end of the world, Senior Brother's existence was more important.]
[Ganyu and Seeing Shenhe looked at Su Bai, who seemed to be resting with his eyes closed.]
[This scene made the two beauties' eyes tremble slightly.]
[The appearance of this sword spirit named A-Shi closing his eyes and thinking was exactly the same as Su Bai.]
[Su Bai suddenly opened his eyes.]
[Seeing Shenhe and Ganyu's delicate bodies trembled, subconsciously feeling that the other party should have found something.]
[Just like the Su Bai of the past.]
[Sure enough, after Su Bai opened his eyes, he immediately said: "I have detected a certain sign of life."]
["He is not far from the City of Mondstadt now, that location..."]
["Windrise, huh..."]
Venti: "Windrise, huh, that must be where I am."
Dvalin: "That fits your style very well."
Diluc: "If you put it that way, our Anemo Archon hasn't been affected by the curse?"
Kaeya: "At least from Su Bai's mouth, we can know that the current Anemo Archon has signs of life, and is still in the place he often likes to be."
Jean: "Then the one at Windrise must be the Anemo Archon Barbatos."
Consultant Zhongli: "Hmm... this wisp of breeze hasn't been affected by the curse..."
Azhdaha: "Is it that this kind of curse has more effect on the more powerful gods?"
Venti: "Hey, I say Azhdaha, why aren't you tearing down the old man's stage this time?"
Azhdaha: "....."
Osial: "Usually is usually, but when it really comes to the matter, Liyue people are still very united."
Yae Miko: "That's right, otherwise how could Tianquan Ningguang be willing to smash the dream she worked so hard to develop on you."
Tianquan Ningguang: "(Drinking tea · Yelan)"
[Su Bai, Seeing Shenhe, and Ganyu...]
[The three of them hurriedly left the City of Mondstadt, and not long after, a towering tree in the distance came into their view.]
[By the way, there was also a green figure, as if dancing under the shade of the tree.]
["That is..."]
["Green skin, white silk, that's right, it's the Anemo Archon Barbatos." Su Bai responded to Seeing Shenhe.]
[Seeing Shenhe's eyes immediately flashed with the light of hope.]
[Found him; as long as they find the Anemo Archon Barbatos, they will be able to find clues to Su Bai's whereabouts.]
[However, before the three of them could approach.]
[A loud voice reached the ears of the three.]
[It was Barbatos, who was twisting and turning under the tree, who made the loud voice.]
["This is..."]
[Listening to the noisy singing, Su Bai's shocked pupils gradually dilated.]
[For a moment, he was somewhat unable to accept the facts before him.]
["This is the Anemo Archon Barbatos?"]
["This..."]
["This is simply a mad god."]
[Ganyu looked at Barbatos, who was singing and dancing, and was completely dumbfounded.]
[She had once had the honor of meeting Barbatos; although the other party liked to drink, the overall feeling he gave people was still slightly elegant.]
[His harp playing, although not as good as the flute Su Bai played, could still be considered pleasant.]
[But this person before her, who was swaying like a drunkard and howling something unknown in his mouth.]
[Was simply worlds apart from the former Anemo Archon.]
["Hey, Lord Anemo Archon."]
[Seeing Shenhe walked forward, her attitude towards Barbatos very respectful.]
["Lord Anemo Archon, we are disciples of Cloud Retainer from Liyue, and we have come to ask you about clues regarding Senior Brother Su Bai."]
["You..."]
[However, before Seeing Shenhe could finish speaking, Su Bai gently patted her shoulder to interrupt her inquiry.]
["Alright, don't ask anymore, Barbatos seems to have also suffered from the curse."]
["It's not normal here." Su Bai pointed to his own head with his finger.]
[Signaling that the current Barbatos should be affected by the curse and has gone mad...]
Venti: "???"
Dvalin: "..."
Paimon: "Eh! Lumine, you guys look quickly, Venti, he, he's gone mad..."
Lumine: "(Alert · Collei)"
Furina: "This this... what exactly is going on, can the curse also erode other people's brains?"
Neuvillette: "I remember that this curse can also cause monsters to fall into a state of madness; presumably it should be able to invade the brains and nerves of living beings."
Venti: "Wait a second, I definitely knew they were coming to find me, I did it on purpose."
