Then he looked at the top of his head and pointed with his finger.

Seeming to be expressing something.

Keqing frowned, not understanding what the other party meant.

Therefore, she could only change the method.

"You have no malice, right?"

"Roar."

The knight leader nodded, then slowly sat on the ground.

Seeming to be calming his wounds.

Seeming to be recuperating.

Keqing was confused, but at least one point could be confirmed.

This is a special Abyss creature.

They have reason, and also have their own thoughts.

Therefore, Keqing opened the Heavens Mission Group to contact Su Han.

"Come over here, I encountered some very wonderful things here..."

"Okay!"

Su Han was on his way, hearing Keqing’s call, he hurriedly turned his direction and rushed toward her.

· ··Seeking flowers····· ····

Ten minutes later.

He saw Keqing and those dozen Abyss creatures.

"These guys are..."

"I don’t know either, when I came over, they were fighting another group of Abyss creatures. So, I want you to come and see..."

Keqing looked helpless.

Narrated everything that happened just now.

Su Han turned to look at the knight leader, remembered some things, and said in surprise: "Could it be that he is that person..."

"Who? Do you know him..."

"Hmm, inside the Chasm. There is a group of Abyss creatures with reason, they are called Black Serpent Knights, and were once the palace guard of the Khaenri’ah Kingdom. If I’m not mistaken, this Black Serpent Knight in front of us should be the elite of the palace guard - Halfdan."

If I have not guessed wrong.

The Black Serpent Knight before us should be the elite of the palace guard—Halfdan."

Hearing his own name.

The Black Serpent Knight who was sitting on the ground suddenly trembled all over.

A memory surged from his mind.

That strange feeling.

Made him very uncomfortable, but also very nostalgic.

However, the power of the Abyss kept surging, causing Halfdan to start roaring.

.. .. 0

Keqing thought the other party was going crazy.

Hurriedly raised her weapon.

But Su Han shook his head and said: "Don’t be so nervous, he won’t hurt anyone..."

"But..."

Keqing looked nervously at the Black Serpent Knight.

The other party is an Abyss creature.

Who knows what kind of move he will make next.

"Heh.. heh... you.. why do you know my name."

The voice was hoarse and carried unimaginable weight.

It seems that speaking for Halfdan.

Was very difficult.

Keqing said in surprise: "He responded, he really is called Halfdan... what is going on?"

"Are you a bit clearer now?"

Su Han came to the Black Serpent Knight.

The other party nodded slowly, but didn’t speak again.

Clearly, he had just used up all his strength.

Looking at Halfdan and the knights behind him, Su Han had an idea, what made these guys come to protect those Black Blade knights.

If it’s faith.

It shouldn’t be quite right.

Suddenly, he remembered the sentence Keqing said.

When asking Halfdan why he protected the Black Blade troop.

The other party pointed to the top of his head.

But there was nothing above his head except rocks.

If something could really attract Halfdan, it would only be the Dragon Vein.

Thinking of this, Su Han’s eyes lit up, feeling that he had cracked the mystery.

"Perhaps, it’s the influence of the Dragon Vein. That made Halfdan and the others willing to protect the Black Blade soldiers..."

"Hmm? Why do you say that..."

Keqing looked at him puzzled.

Su Han explained: "Because the Dragon Vein suppresses the power of the Abyss, it attracted the attack of the Abyss Order. But have you ever thought... the power of the Dragon Vein is constantly spreading. Eventually radiating the entire Jiuzhou. Although the time is short now. But it has begun to spread its influence. And after Halfdan was affected, he slowly gained reason, the Dragon Vein is to protect Liyue. And the Black Blade troop is the people of Liyue. It can be said, influenced by the Dragon Vein. The Black Serpent Knights might be able to be subdued for their own use."

The power of the Dragon Vein is constantly spreading.

Eventually radiating throughout the entire Nine Provinces.

Although the time has been short so far.

It has already begun to spread its influence.

And after Halfdan was affected, he slowly regained his reason; the Dragon Vein is meant to protect Liyue.

And the Black Blade troops are the people of Liyue.

It can be said that, influenced by the Dragon Vein.

The Black Serpent Knights might be subdued for our own use."

"What..." Keqing looked at him in shock and asked: "You want to subdue Abyss creatures?" ===== CHAPTER 239 =====

Subdue Abyss creatures.

This idea is simply too crazy.

Keqing had never heard of it.

Because just thinking about it feels impossible.

It’s not that no one in history has subdued Abyss creatures, but that this kind of Abyss creature itself carries a corrupting power.

Corrupting power.

Can make the creatures of the Teyvat world fall.

Lose themselves.

Until they completely turn into inhuman monsters.

That is to say, just having Abyss creatures by your side will subtly influence a person.

Such a thing that can explode at any time.

Keqing naturally doesn’t want Su Han to touch it.

"But do you understand the terror of Abyss creatures?"

Keqing asked with worry. ===== CHAPTER 240 =====

If there is a glimmer of possibility.

She doesn’t want the other party to touch the Abyss.

Su Han smiled upon hearing this, nodded and said: "No one understands the terror of the Abyss better than me, but... subduing Halfdan might be a good start. Do you know? Abyss creatures are not residing in this land. But are transmitted through the ley line network. Therefore, if we can subdue him, we can master these ley line networks, thereby completely cutting off the entry and exit of Abyss creatures in Liyue."

Do you know?

Abyss creatures do not reside in this land.

They are transported here through the Ley Line network.

Therefore, if we can subdue him, we can control these Ley Line networks, thereby completely cutting off the entry and exit of Abyss creatures in Liyue."

"What? So Abyss creatures are like this..."

Keqing was learning about the mysteries of the Abyss for the first time.

Afterwards, Su Han told her the story of the Abyss he knew.

For example, Shadowy Husks were also soldiers of the Khaenri’ah Kingdom.

The Abyss can corrupt all living things.

He naturally wouldn’t be stupid enough to touch it.

But mastering Halfdan is very important.

After such an explanation, Keqing was finally persuaded, and at this time Shenhe also guarded the stronghold, sending good news.

"Let’s return to the previous level, the Abyss Order has been defeated, and the losses are heavy, I estimate they won’t come to attack again within this period of time..."

"Hmm."

Su Han took Keqing and the others, as well as Halfdan’s twelve Black Serpent Knights.

And advanced toward the upper level.

He observed silently.

Finding that the closer they were to the Dragon Vein, the better the state of these Black Serpent Knights seemed to be.

There were even wisps of black energy being stripped away.

After arriving at the upper level.

Those soldiers saw Halfdan and the others and hurriedly raised the alarm.

Even Yelan almost launched an attack.

Fortunately, she saw Su Han and the others and stopped her actions.

She saw her leap lightly, landing easily in front of Su Han from the platform.

Looking at Halfdan and the others, she frowned and said: "What are you doing again? Want to interrogate some things..."

"He wants to subdue these knights and use them to guard the Chasm."

Keqing explained for Su Han.

Yelan was dumbfounded, subduing the Abyss for one’s own use?

She turned to look at Su Han.

But found that the other party’s gaze was always on those Shadowy Husks.

Halfdan and the others were watching the Dragon Vein in the sky.

Then, knelt on one knee on the ground.

Hum.

A gentle beam of light fell from the Dragon Vein.

Finally landing on Halfdan and the others.

"Ah..."

All the Black Serpent Knights, illuminated by the light, all let out shrill screams.

Black mud.

Black energy.

That filthy thing emerged from the knights’ bodies one after another.

The whole process lasted for ten minutes.

Until the black energy no longer appeared.

Halfdan returned to normal.

He stood up and turned to look at Su Han, then struck his chest with his fist.

"Khaenri’ah Palace Guard · Halfdan, greets Lord Su Han, thank you for your generosity, finally letting us regain clarity..."

Although still in the form of a monster.

But now everyone knows.

This Abyss creature has regained reason.

"My mercy requires a reward, you and your knights need to destroy all the teleportation ley lines in the Chasm... and eradicate the Abyss monsters lurking inside. Understand? If you can do it, you can become the Night Knights of our Liyue!"

And also eradicate the Abyss monsters lurking within.

Do you understand...

If you can do this, you can become our Liyue's Knight of the Night!"

What’s the use of just saying thank you.

Su Han wants the other party’s allegiance.

Halfdan didn’t even think about it, knelt on one knee directly, and said: "I, Halfdan, am willing to become your knight and guard the Chasm... It’s just that, my lord, we have just regained reason. If we clear the ley lines now, I’m afraid problems will arise. Can you give us a day? If we can bathe in this holy light for a while longer, we will be able to fear no black mud."

It's just that, my lord, we have only just regained our reason.

If we clear the Ley Lines now, I fear problems will arise.

Could you grant us one day?

If we can bathe in this sacred light a little longer, we will be able to fear no more of that damned black mud."

"Of course, I grant it... Congratulations, Mr. Halfdan. From today on, you are the captain of the Night Knight Order..."

Su Han directly announced Halfdan’s future identity.

This belongs to a kind of recognition.

Although they cannot appear in public for the time being.

But it gave him a glimmer of hope.

This scene deeply shocked everyone.

Abyss creatures.

Were actually subdued.

Lord Su Han is too strong.

In fact, they didn’t know.

Because Khaenri’ah was destroyed, the current ending for Black Serpent Knights is only death.

However, the Dragon Vein gave these people a glimmer of comfort.

And precisely because of this, Halfdan was willing to submit.

If they meet colleagues in the future, they can help them regain clarity.

After dealing with all this.

Su Han didn’t return to Liyue Harbor.

But prepared to stay for a while longer.

If the Abyss people return to attack again.

He can resist directly.

The next day.

After Halfdan and the others consolidated the power of the Dragon Vein, they began to clear the entire Chasm.

Although the Abyss tried to block it.

But with the Black Blade troop and the intervention of Su Han and others.

The Abyss was eventually defeated.

One teleportation network after another was destroyed.

With the help of Halfdan and others.

Just one day and one night.

Completed this huge work. ===== CHAPTER 241 =====
