Su Yuan knew that he had made a big mistake...
In order to avoid heavy casualties, he had chosen not to bring everyone along...
But because of that, the course of events changed from what was originally planned, which led Dottore to notice sothing unusual...
Facing this situation, Su Yuan had nothing to say—it was his own misstep that landed him in this trap...
"Each segnt is an independent individual. It’s perfectly normal for them to have their own selfish motives..."
Dottore spoke slowly:
"What a pity. He had already discovered the conditions under which a segnt undergoes Eerie state—a rare opportunity to trigger the transformation voluntarily—yet he still chose to betray ?"
"Although I would love to destroy him right here and now, he’s still an excellent experintal specin. I might as well make the most of him..."
"So let’s put his matter aside for now—I’ll settle accounts with him later..."
"From this point on, let’s focus on just the two of us..."
Su Yuan understood—there was no one else here, and with his own strength alone, he was definitely no match for Dottore...
Was he really going to sit here and await death?
Beco one of Dottore’s test subjects?
Su Yuan glanced around, analyzing the details, searching for every possible option...
"Su Yuan, I had thought that after we parted ways in Fontaine, we would et again in Liyue."
Dottore continued speaking:
"I had set up so asures in Liyue, thinking they would draw you there..."
"But it’s as if you had foresight—you seed to know those asures wouldn’t be able to truly affect Liyue. Instead, you ca straight to Inazuma..."
"So those sea-dwelling monsters in Liyue were your doing after all, Dottore?!" Su Yuan demanded.
"And what if they were?" Dottore smiled faintly.
"But that’s not the point right now—let’s not dwell on that."
"Let’s hurry up and move on to the experintal phase, shall we?"
As he spoke, Dottore conjured a mass of Eerie power in his hand and injected it straight into Su Yuan’s body!
The Eerie power coursed through Su Yuan’s body, and within it, he sensed a ssage embedded in the energy:
[Obey Dottore’s words. Tell him everything you know—leave nothing out.]
Su Yuan couldn’t shake the feeling that this scene felt strangely familiar...
As if he had experienced this exact situation once before...
"Su Yuan, tell —back in Fontaine, how exactly did you know that information? How did you know about my actions?" Dottore asked.
Su Yuan thought to himself, Dottore probably believes I’ve already been controlled by the Eerie power.
In that case, I might as well play along and feed him false information to mislead him...
"Nothing stays hidden forever. No matter what you do, there will always be traces left behind," Su Yuan replied.
"You’re lying!!" Dottore suddenly roared, cutting Su Yuan off.
"Looks like you haven’t been corrupted or controlled by my Eerie power at all..."
"Is this so kind of privilege you Descenders possess? Truly sothing to be envied, resented... and hated..."
Su Yuan was a bit shocked.
Was my acting really that bad? Dottore saw through it that easily?
"Su Yuan, I’m genuinely curious—how exactly are you able to resist the control of the Eerie power...?"
"Let dissect you thoroughly and find out!"
As Dottore spoke, he pulled out a scalpel, preparing to slice across Su Yuan’s face!
But at that mont, a loud crash echoed through the cave—the entrance to the underground cavern was blasted open, and Aether, Paimon, Arataki Itto, and Kuki Shinobu appeared!
"Su Yuan! Even though you told Ioroi to tell us not to worry, I just couldn’t sit still—so I ca!" Aether called out.
"Yeah, yeah! Su Yuan, we’re all in this together!" said Paimon.
"How did you find this place? Why are you even here?" Dottore looked at them in confusion.
It seed Aether and Paimon had successfully found Arataki Itto!
And the reason Aether was able to locate this place was likely due to the mutual attraction between Descenders...
"No need to waste words on Dottore! Shinobu, let’s go!" Arataki Itto shouted to Kuki Shinobu.
Kuki Shinobu nodded, then tossed a few beans into Arataki Itto’s mouth!
At once, a surge of intense Eerie power erupted from Arataki Itto’s body!
"Boss, look at that guy over there—Su Yuan. He’s an exceptional talent. He was supposed to join our Arataki Gang..."
"But now you see it too—Su Yuan’s been taken hostage by Dottore..."
"Dottore!!!"
Arataki Itto glared at Dottore, his voice filled with fury:
"You dared to bully soone from the Arataki Gang—even if he’s only a provisional mber, that’s an unforgivable act!!!"
"Arataki Itto" roared furiously, Eerie power erupting from his body as he charged toward Dottore, wielding his Oni King’s Gold-Crushing Club with full force.
Facing the rampaging "Arataki Itto," Dottore furrowed his brow slightly.
He gathered Eerie power in his hand and used its montum to deflect the blow, dodging rather than taking it head-on.
"Well then, Su Yuan, it seems now is not the ti," Dottore said as he glanced toward Su Yuan.
"Next ti, we’ll have a proper conversation."
"You think you can just bully soone from the Arataki Gang, insult our na, and walk away like nothing happened? No way I’m letting that slide!"
However, "Arataki Itto" clearly had no intention of letting Dottore escape and continued his relentless assault!
"So noisy..." Dottore muttered as a powerful surge of Eerie power suddenly burst from his body, clashing head-on with Arataki Itto’s force.
"While I may not be a match for you in a direct confrontation, if I want to leave, there’s no way you can stop —Arataki Itto!"
With a deafening boom, the entire cavern trembled violently.
Clouds of smoke and dust surged into the air, obscuring everyone’s vision...
When the haze finally settled and their sight cleared—Dottore was nowhere to be seen.
"He still managed to escape..." Kuki Shinobu said quietly.
"Though I suppose it was within expectations."
Su Yuan remained silent as Aether spoke up:
"Su Yuan, I still think our top priority should be working together to track down those potential bio-weapons hiding in Inazuma!"
"If we don’t eliminate this hidden threat completely, none of us will be able to rest easy!"
Hearing Aether’s words, Su Yuan nodded in agreent...
Moreover, Su Yuan also noticed that at the sa ti Dottore vanished, the massive tallic-looking cube that had been beside him had also disappeared...
What exactly was that thing used for?
