Chapter 115 Meeting of the Three Armor Summoners
Chapter 115 Meeting of the Three Armor Summoners
Diluk and Qin were obviously relieved when they saw Lu Ming and Wendy in the crowd.
As for the young master Tartaglia, he looked at the two sides, none of them were serious, so he secretly raised his vigilance.
In this crowd, even if the Heavenly Dao Emperor and the Shadow Emperor restrained their momentum, no one could ignore these two big guys. They just stood there, the center of heaven and earth.
Although Tartaglia loves fighting, he doesn't like to be abused. Knowing that the aura of the two big guys in front of him is not even comparable to that of his master, he is not so stupid as to go up and fight.
At this time, Tartaglia also saw Lu Ming, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He finally found someone he knew.
With a shy and gentle smile on her face, Tartaglia said to Lu Ming enthusiastically, "You must be Mr. Lu Ming, I have heard of your great name for a long time."
"My name is Tartaglia. As soon as I saw you, I felt that we would get along well. Can we be friends?"
If someone didn't know Master Tartaglia, seeing his warm and gentle attitude, they would probably really mistake him for the big brother next door.
But only those who truly know him know that Tartaglia is a ruthless warrior who is as gentle to his friends and family as the warm wind in Mondstadt, but as cold to his enemies as the freezing wind in the winter wasteland.
As for why Tartaglia knew Lu Ming, this has to do with the Fatui's internal intelligence.
After the Doctor returned to Solstice and brought the upgraded Evil Eye and Cybernetic Prosthetics Project with greatly reduced side effects to Solstice's Fatui, Lu Ming became very famous within Solstice and Fatui.
Before, the use of the Evil Eye required the Fatui soldiers to undergo body modification, a process that was extremely painful and would consume their lifespan after use.
However, after the doctor stole Lu Ming's technology, the use of the evil eye no longer required human body transformation, and long-term use of the evil eye would not consume as much vitality as before. For example, the evil eye used to consume a year's vitality for one hour, but now it only takes a week.
In addition, the Cyber Element Prosthetics Project gave disabled Faints and Solstice civilians hope of getting back on their feet. So even though they knew that this technology was not provided by Lu Ming on his own initiative, Lu Ming still had a huge reputation among the Solstice Faints and the civilian population.
Even among the Fatui and the common people, Lu Ming is more popular than the executive officers.
After the Queen of Winter gave the order to win over Lu Ming, all the Fatui received detailed intelligence about Lu Ming. It was when Tartaglia saw Lu Ming's portrait in this intelligence that she recognized Lu Ming here.
Just when Tartaglia wanted to get close to Lu Ming, Diluk stood in front of Lu Ming.
Diluk put his hand on his belt and said coldly, "Stay away from him, Fatui!"
The young master looked helpless. He was used to being hated by others. It was because of his colleagues that they ruined the reputation of the Fatui.
To be honest, if he could defeat them, Childe Tartaglia would have wanted to kill those colleagues first and then scatter their ashes on the glacier in winter.
The young master helplessly spread his hands and said, "My dear brother, I have no ill intentions."
When the young master saw the armor summoner on Diluk's waist, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Do you want this thing too?"
A few years ago, Diluk traveled through the Seven Kingdoms and made a big fuss in the winter in order to find out the origin of his father's use of the evil eye. Although he was badly beaten by the Fatui's executors at that time, Diluk also gained something.
In the past few years, Diluk has been collecting intelligence on the Fatui, and he also knows something about Tartaglia, the new last executive of the Fatui.
But Tartaglia didn't know Diluk.
When Diluk was causing trouble in Solstice, Tartaglia had not yet become an executive officer. In addition, Diluk did not gain any advantage in Solstice at that time, so the Fatui did not record this incident. It is no wonder that Tartaglia did not know Diluk.
As a militant member of the Fatui, Tartaglia doesn't care about the leaders of other countries. What he likes most is to fight strong people.
Humph--
The Shadow Emperor's cold snort did not carry any power, but it made everyone present feel as if their souls had fallen into an icy cave, and they were silent as a cicada.
Shadow Emperor: "Emperor, I didn't expect you to have already laid out your chess pieces in this world so early. Five Elements Armor, is this the only move you can make after all these attempts?"
Emperor Tiandao: "Emperor Shadow, it doesn't matter how many tricks you have, as long as they are useful."
"Since I went first, according to the rules you should also leave this world."
The Shadow Emperor swung the black cloak behind him fiercely and walked into the altar with the Taoist priest.
"Emperor, it seems that your subordinates are not of one mind. Can the Five Elements Armor, which cannot be united, still be your killer move?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
With the departure of the Shadow Emperor, the icy air in the center of the underworld suddenly returned to its original state.
The Emperor of Heaven looked at the three native armored warriors of Teyvat and called them forward.
Emperor Tiandao: "Three young friends, please come forward."
Looking at the bewildered people, Lu Ming stepped forward and pushed Diluk, Jean, and Tartaglia forward.
The Emperor of Heaven looked at the three and said, "My three friends, the fact that you have been recognized by the Five Elements Armor proves that you all have your own justice in your hearts."
"The Shadow Emperor has set his sights on this world. Whether you are willing or not, as the summoners of the Five Elements Armor, you will be the first targets of the Shadow Forces' attack."
"As warriors of light, it is your duty to protect this land."
Facing the majestic and benevolent Heavenly Emperor, Diluk asked the question in his heart: "Wasn't the Five Elements Armor invented and made by Lu Ming?"
The Heavenly Dao Emperor said: "The Five Elements Armor was indeed made by Young Master Lu Ming, but the Light and Shadow Stone, which is the core of the Five Elements Armor's power, came from me, from the Heavenly Dao."
Diluk asked again: "Is this battle unavoidable?"
The Heavenly Dao Emperor said, "It is unavoidable."
"As the king of the shadow world, the Shadow Emperor's mission is to bring all worlds under the rule of shadow. If you can't defeat him, you can't change his will."
“Although I do not agree with the Shadow Emperor’s philosophy of the survival of the fittest, I believe that protecting justice and light requires a force stronger than darkness.”
Emperor Shadow looked at the three and said, "If you think you are unable to shoulder the responsibility of protecting this world, then give me the summoner and key of the Five Elements Armor, and I will find new summoners for them."
Diluk said firmly, "No need for that. I feel more at ease knowing that the power is in my hands."
Jean nodded and said, "Yes, sir. Whether it is to protect Teyvat or to protect my beloved Mondstadt, I need this power."
Tartaglia's blood boiled and he said, "Fight? I'd be happy to do so."
"Whether it's to protect my family or to protect Teyvat, I will fight to the end."
The Emperor of Heaven was very pleased to see this. It seemed that the warriors of justice would never shirk their responsibilities no matter which world they were in.
Compared with Diluk and Tartaglia, as the summoner of Wind Eagle Armor, Jean has been extremely low-key since coming here.
Because Jyn is Mond's acting leader, her every word and action represents Mond. She is worried that she might anger the strong and cause Mond's destruction, so Jyn thinks carefully about her every word and action.
After saying that, the Emperor of Heaven looked at the two gods, Wendy and Zhongli.
Emperor Tiandao: "My two Daoists, I have something to ask of you."
Wendy and Zhongli looked at each other, wondering, "What could a powerful being like the Heavenly Dao Emperor need us to do?"
Although they were full of doubts, the two gods were still happy to help the Emperor of Heaven.
It was not only because the Emperor of Heaven was powerful and of noble character, but also because he was a friend Lu Ming called to help and solved the threat posed by the Shadow Emperor to Mond.
With such a favor, the two of them must of course find a way to repay it.
Zhongli asked, "I wonder what help do you need from us, Your Excellency the Emperor?"
The Emperor of Heaven raised his right hand slightly, and the Snow Mastiff Summoner and the Earth Tiger Summoner were suspended above his palm.
"My two fellow Taoists, among the Five Elements Armor, the Flame Dragon, Wind Eagle, and Black Rhino have all found their summoners. Only the remaining Snow Mastiff and Earth Tiger have not found their summoners yet."
"According to the agreement, Emperor Shadow and I cannot directly interfere in the chess game. Therefore, I would like to ask you two Taoist friends to find suitable summoners for these two summoning devices."
Wendy and Zhongli naturally would not refuse. Wendy took the Snow Mastiff Summoner and Zhongli took the Earth Tiger Summoner.
Seeing that everything had been arranged, the Emperor of Heaven said goodbye to everyone, then turned into a ray of light and left Teyvat.
The two big guys had already left, and everyone's tense nerves relaxed.
The upholder of justice immediately left the underworld, this unlucky place, and returned to the Sky Island.
The originally silent atmosphere became lively, and everyone started talking about what had just happened.
Seeing that Jean and Diluk still had confused looks on their faces and had no idea what had just happened, Hu Tao and Xingqiu enthusiastically told them the story that happened before they came.
No one paid any attention to Young Master Tartaglia for a while, so he shamelessly moved forward and listened to what Kurumi and the others were saying.
Although Childe Tartaglia is on the side of the Fatui, as the summoner of the Black Rhino Armor, his identity is recognized by the Emperor of Heaven. Therefore, even Diluk, who dislikes the Fatui the most, did not call for his death. He just treated him as air and ignored him.
As Hu Tao and the others explained like a storyteller, the three of them became more and more frightened.
It turns out that without realizing it, Teyvat had been on the brink of life and death.
They didn't think that what Kurumi and the others said was false. Just now outside the underworld, when Teyvat was plunged into darkness, all the people of Teyvat were watching.
On the other side, Zhongli, who had the strongest sense of responsibility, held a small meeting with Lu Ming and Wendy.
Zhongli said: "His Excellency the Emperor said that the Five Elements Armor Warriors have a great responsibility as the vanguard against the Shadow Realm. What should we do with the summoners of these two sets of armor in our hands?"
Wendy said, "What else can we do? Just find a suitable person and leave it to him."
Zhongli was still worried and said, "But as an armored warrior, I will definitely encounter many dangers. I..."
Wendy patted Zhongli on the shoulder and said, "Grandpa, you just think too much. When children grow up, there will always be a day when you need to let go. You must give confidence to the children you choose and give them the opportunity to grow."
Zhongli: “That’s what I said, but…”
Lu Ming then gave his suggestion: "Hey! Since you are worried, old man, why don't you be the summoner of the local tiger armor yourself!"
