Chapter 1202

"For Miss Bai Lu, this might not be an important matter."

"But for us, it is a rather peculiar thing."

"Miss Bai Lu, Mr. Dan Heng, you mentioned earlier that Lord Dan Feng's Transmutation of the Dragon brought about the two of you."

"Then, do you know why he would do such a thing?"

Neuvillette asked curiously.

【Wriothesley: Whoa, it's rare to see the Iudex Neuvillette show such a curious side.】

【Dottore: This is how one cherishes travel opportunities. Not taking advantage of the travel to learn more about things outside of Teyvat would be the greatest desecration of the travel opportunity.】

【Rhinedottir: Indeed! Neuvillette had better ask about the Transmutation of the Dragon as well.】

【Barbeloth: Hey, are you trying to get Neuvillette killed? The Transmutation of the Dragon is clearly a secret of the Vidyadhara race. Unless they explain it themselves, it's better not to ask about such things.】

【Rhinedottir: Hmph, coward.】

【Barbeloth: Hehe, you're so brave, why don't you ask after you get a train ticket? No, someone like you might not even be able to get a train ticket.】

【Rhinedottir: You!】

【Alice: You two should stop arguing. We're watching a live stream, can you be a bit quieter?】

【Rhinedottir: Hmph!】

【Barbeloth: Hmph!】

"Unfortunately, I don't have any memories of that in my head."

Dan Heng shook his head and said to Neuvillette.

"Same here. I don't even have the slightest impression of that guy Lord Dan Feng in my head."

"In my opinion, he was just a quack doctor who messed with prescriptions."

"If he hadn't changed the Transmutation of the Dragon, so many things wouldn't have happened, right?"

Bai Lu shrugged and said.

"I see..."

"Sorry, I asked a redundant question."

Neuvillette said.

"It's okay, I have a good impression of you."

"Maybe we can become friends in the future."

Bai Lu bared her teeth and smiled at Neuvillette, then looked at Dan Heng again.

"By the way, things here are finished."

"Should we go find the Mirage you mentioned earlier?"

Bai Lu asked.

"That's right, Dan Heng still has things to do!"

March 7th said, realizing it only now.

"Yes!" Dan Heng nodded and said:

"Mirages only react to familiar auras."

"In this Vidyadhara Dragon Palace, the Mirage won't just react to me; it might also react to you, Bai Lu."

"If we go look for the Mirage together, we should be able to learn more about Lord Dan Feng's past."

"If we are lucky enough, perhaps we can truly understand why Lord Dan Feng changed the Transmutation of the Dragon and created you and me."

Hearing this, Neuvillette, Bai Zhu, Yae Miko, and other passengers all had their eyes light up.

By now, everyone was becoming increasingly curious about Lord Dan Feng's past.

So how could they refuse the opportunity to learn about Lord Dan Feng's past? Especially regarding the Transmutation of the Dragon.

After a little preparation, the group of Teyvat passengers immediately followed Dan Heng on the journey to find the Mirage.

………………

Scalegorge Waterscape, Vidyadhara Palace.

"Hey! There seems to be something ahead?"

"It looks like a person made of water."

Walking on the way back, Mona suddenly pointed to a figure ahead and said.

"That is not a person, but a Mirage."

Dan Heng shook his head and said.

"Is that your target, Mr. Dan Heng, the Mirage?"

"It seems quite interesting, somewhat similar to the drifting Ley Line memories in Inazuma."

Yae Miko asked with interest.

"I think it's a bit like a ghost."

Hu Tao rested her chin on one hand and muttered.

"In any case, let's go over."

After Dan Heng finished speaking, he walked toward the Mirage first.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly followed Dan Heng's footsteps.

"Hmm? This power... it's you, Lord Dan Feng, you've returned!"

As Dan Heng and the others approached, a somewhat aged man's voice came from within the Mirage.

"It... it spoke!" March 7th exclaimed, looking at Dan Heng and saying:

"Just like you said, the Mirage can really speak."

"Although it seems to have mistaken you for Lord Dan Feng."

Stelle rested her chin on one hand and muttered in confusion:

"So, how exactly are these Mirages formed?"

"Are they really not ghosts of the Vidyadhara race?"

Stelle said, reaching out to touch the Mirage.

Her hand passed directly through the Mirage's body as if it were passing through formless air.

"Mirages are not ghosts, but a collection of past memories shed by the Vidyadhara race after they form an egg to molt and be reborn in the Ancient Sea; they are echoes of the past."

Dan Heng explained.

【Alice: A collection of past memories? Yae Miko's earlier speculation actually came true.

Mirages are indeed very similar to the memories gathered in the Ley Lines in Inazuma and the Teyvat continent.】

【Paimon: So... so that really isn't a ghost, right?】

【Kaeya: Are you scared, Paimon?】

【Paimon: I... I'm not scared at all.】

【Dottore: A rather interesting discovery. The Ancient Sea of the Vidyadhara race and the Ley Lines of the Teyvat continent might have many commonalities.】

【Dottore: If I could get a ladle of the water of the Ancient Sea for research, that would be wonderful.】

【Dottore: I wonder if Bai Zhu, Neuvillette, and the others will be able to bring back a ladle of the water of the Ancient Sea.】

【Lisa: The Vidyadhara race values the water of the Ancient Sea very highly; wanting to bring it back must be an extremely difficult task.】

【Dottore: Is that so? That's truly a pity.】

………………

"Lord Dan Feng, have you come to the holy land to repent?"

"To repent for the great mistake you once committed?"

The Mirage asked.

"This again. What exactly did Lord Dan Feng do back then?"

"Even when meeting a Mirage, it brings up past mistakes."

March 7th rested her head on her hand and sighed.

"You've likely mistaken me for someone else; I am not Lord Dan Feng."

Dan Heng shook his head and said to the Mirage.

"Hmph, how could I mistake the pride of the Vidyadhara race, the great hero of the High-Cloud Quintet?"

"Hehe, you fought with us Dragon Masters for a lifetime, only to end up in such a pathetic state."
