Zhongli: Osial, Why Not Be Bai Ye's Pet?
After realizing that his power had been stolen, Osial launched a final attack in a panic.
All the heads looked up at the sky, and water elemental projectiles shot out from His throat and fell in all directions.
Upon seeing this, Albedo immediately came to Klee's side. With a wave of his hand, a Geo element shield appeared in front of the two of them to block the attack.
The aura of Adeptal Art emanated from Hu Tao, ready to dodge among the water bullets at any moment.
Shenhe and Ganyu had an easier time, as the surrounding water created a huge ice shield.
Everyone got ready to receive the falling water bombs.
The water bombs are about to be released.
Just a second before they were about to be released, all the water bullets mysteriously stopped.
"Come, attack Osial quickly, so that He cannot fully exercise His power."
Bai Ye's voice came through, his mechanical arm pressing firmly against Osial's body, his hands now deeply embedded in Osial's flesh.
The current situation is that Bai Ye sneaked into Osial's house to steal something, but was discovered by Osial just as he was about to take it. The two are currently struggling over it, and neither can gain the upper hand.
At this moment, Bai Ye had to quickly summon his companions for help.
Ganyu continued to hold the arrow and kept shooting at Osial.
Cloud Retainer transformed into a crane and used his Adeptal Art to freeze everything from the land to Osial's side.
Upon seeing this, Shenhe ran rapidly towards Osial on the ice.
Strength represents speed, Shenhe's immense strength gives her a tremendous boost every time she steps on the ground, propelling her forward.
She will be able to come to Bai Ye's side soon.
Halfway through her run, she noticed something and looked to her side. The fire butterfly was flying at a speed no less than hers.
A streak of blue light and a streak of red light arrived at Bai Ye's side at almost the same time.
At this moment, Bai Ye felt that his struggle with Osial had reached its limit.
While Bai Ye was Osial's abilities, he was also forcefully taking control of Osial's Gods aura, causing Osial's own power to gradually diminish.
But Osial has used this power for far longer than Bai Ye; it is an innate ability that Baiye possesses. How could Bai Ye, a newcomer, possibly remain on par with him?
When it seemed I was about to lose control.
Just then, Bai Ye heard the clear shouts of Hu Tao and Shenhe.
"Butterfly Flame Ignites the Flame!"
"Innocent Edict!"
Everyone stood around Bai Ye, shivering.
The power of ice and fire also sliced through Osial's body.
Two long spears were driven firmly into it.
Normally, Osial wouldn't have reacted much to this. But these two attacks were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, making Osial lose his composure.
In that instant, Bai Ye seized the opportunity and used Osial's powers.
"Blow it up!"
Bai Ye shouted, and all the water bullets near Osial's mouth exploded. The force was so great that it even injured Osial himself.
The blue body was teetering on the verge of collapse.
Osial suddenly felt as if his body was being drained clean, and that his long life might be coming to an end.
Is everything over?
Osial thought to himself.
His immense anger drove him to make one last stand.
He began to shake his body violently.
Even if it means death, I will fight the enemy to the bitter end.
Osial is preparing to self-destruct.
But at that moment, He suddenly heard a cold snort in His ear.
Majestic and dignified.
This reminded Osial of the Archon War from back then.
A wave of fear washed over him. Osial felt utterly powerless.
He initially believed he could transform all of Liyue into a vast ocean, allowing him to lead his tribe to a peaceful life. But just when victory seemed imminent, the Rex Lapis descended from the heavens.
He was ruthlessly suppressed with almost no chance of fighting back.
They were completely powerless to resist.
Just like now.
Swaying and staggering, Osial's body began to fall onto the sea.
"Finally, victory..."
Seeing Osial's body fall, Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
That's the end of it.
At this point, he also felt mentally exhausted.
He stumbled.
Just then, Bai Ye felt someone supporting him from both sides.
Bai Ye looked and saw that Hu Tao and Shenhe were supporting him at the same time.
Fine,
With the two of them supporting me, I'm sure I won't end up looking embarrassing.
Bai Ye felt fortunate in her heart.
But this relief didn't last even a second before Bai Ye's expression changed drastically.
Etc,
Don't try to please both sides!
It's going to crack.
Osial felt himself sinking deeper and deeper into the sea, and his will was slowly fading away.
Goodbye, Batrice.
Goodbye, this damned world.
Goodbye, young man. I hope you can do even more after you gain my power.
Finally, goodbye, Morax.
I never want to see you again.
Osial finally realized that even if he were freed from the seal, he would still be no match for Morax. His pursuit of revenge would only result in needless casualties among ordinary people.
That's not what I wanted to see.
That's enough, go to sleep.
Osial thought to himself.
Then, he suddenly felt his body lighten.
A dry and uncomfortable feeling came over me.
He was Gods in the sea, and now that he had lost his water, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Osial opened his eyes and saw a young man standing in front of him.
"Osial, it's been a long time."
Zhongli smiled and greeted Osial.
Osial stared intently at Zhongli for several moments.
His body was trembling violently, as if he was holding something back.
Finally, unable to hold back any longer, Osial opened his mouth and shouted at Zhongli:
"Can't you just let me die peacefully?"
Although she felt it was a bit embarrassing to say it, Osial had already come to terms with it.
Whatever, I'm Gods who's about to die anyway, so what's there to be afraid of?
"There's no need for us to risk our lives." Zhongli's expression remained unchanged as he continued brewing the tea. At the same time, he gently raised his hand, and several beams of light shot into Osial's body.
Osial felt his body, which was on the verge of collapse, suddenly stop.
He shuddered and transformed into a blue-clad cloaked cloak.
Osial sat down opposite Zhongli with a nonchalant air and forcefully took the cup from Zhongli's hand.
Seeing that he had finally gotten the item from Zhongli, Osial laughed heartily.
This was the first time I had gotten the better of Morax, and I was satisfied.
After finishing his drink, Osial continued to look at Zhongli. Reflecting on Zhongli's words, he pondered for a moment and asked:
"You really don't want me dead?"
"Why deceive?"
Zhongli Danran.
"That's true. If you hadn't pulled me up at the last moment, I would definitely be dead," Osial nodded in acknowledgment. Then, he remembered his battle with Bai Ye earlier, and his expression turned strange:
"By the way, was that young man you sent to take my Gods power? If he can really steal power, that's terrifying. Also, what is your relationship with him that you would help him like this?"
"You can think of him as someone who will inherit everything from me," Zhongli replied to Osial after a moment's thought.
Osial's eyes widened.
This relationship...
"He took my power, so he won't take yours too, will he?"
He recalled that at the last moment Bai Ye was able to accurately locate his core, and it was probably not Morax's power that could do that.
Zhongli nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Osial couldn't help but shake his head, speaking with admiration, "Ying, in that case, my defeat wasn't entirely unjust. However, you should be careful about what he did. Stealing the power of the Gods at will might incur the wrath of the other Seven Archons. I think even someone as strong as you wouldn't be a match for the other six attacking you."
Osial was one of the later Gods to be defeated, and he had a concept of the Seven Archons.
Thinking about what Morax might be facing, Osial suddenly felt like laughing out loud.
Seeing that Osial's smile was about to burst out, Zhongli said to him:
"His abilities are not limited to stealing the power of the Gods; he can also purify the influence of the Archon Residue."
Osial's smile vanished.
"Complete purification?"
"Yes, completely purified, and restored to its original appearance." Zhongli nodded seriously to Osial.
Osial felt he had lost to Zhongli again.
Bai Ye could only steal power, he would naturally attract attacks. But if he could deal with the Archon Residue, that would be an equivalent exchange. Even more valuable than an equivalent exchange, it would be more worthwhile for the Seven Archons.
After all, the powers of other Gods were completely useless to them, while those Gods god debts were something they desperately wanted to destroy.
Exchanging unwanted items for useful services is a profitable deal for the Seven Archons.
"His abilities are not limited to this." Zhongli continued, looking at Osial.
"What could be more amazing than this?"
Osial is casual.
In his eyes, obtaining the power of the Gods was the most powerful ability in the world, and what other ability in Teyvat could compare to it?
"What if we say he is the natural enemy of the Abyss?"
Upon hearing Zhongli say that, Osial immediately stood up.
"What did you say!?"
What is Morax talking about? That's the Abyss.
The problems of the Abyss are quite dangerous for the Gods. They try their best to eliminate them, but each time it is extremely difficult and they cannot completely eliminate them.
If that young man could become the nemesis of the Abyss, Morax wouldn't have any problem taking his power.
If it were him, Osial would probably have acted even more directly than Morax. He probably wouldn't have let him come over to deal with it himself, but would have just killed the other Gods and let him take the power from behind.
At this moment, Osial was also thankful that she hadn't dragged Bai Ye and him down with her to their deaths.
If I were to kill him, even the Heavenly Principles would probably try to punish me, and I probably wouldn't find peace even after I die.
"Ying, to die at the hands of someone like that, I'm content." Osial nodded, then thanked Zhongli, "Thank you for letting me stay in this world for the last time, for letting me die in peace."
Having said that, one of the Gods Osial, prepared to die.
However, looking at Him, Zhongli slowly shook his head.
"I have no intention of letting you die."
"You don't still want to seal me away, do you? If that's the case, you might as well let me die."
Osial frowned.
Can't death even let me die peacefully?
"No, I wanted you to help Bai Ye." Zhongli shook his head. "Bai Ye is going to be all over the Seven Nations. If she's abroad, I might not be able to protect her in time. So, it would be best if you could help hold her off."
"Let me help him?"
Osial looked at Zhongli strangely.
"Hmm, is he not worthy?"
Zhongli looked at Osial.
"No, that's not it..." Seeing Zhongli's expression, Osial quickly waved his hand.
He quickly said, "However, he has the ability to purify the Abyss. Among the Seven Nations, who would harm him?"
"Since the Seven Nations will protect him like this, then the Abyss will also target him," Zhongli stood up and looked at Osial. "Besides, the fewer people who know about Bai Ye's ability to purify the Abyss before he grows up, the better. It's inevitable that those who don't know will do something."
"Um..."
Osial had essentially agreed with Zhongli's words.
Then, he found another reason and said to Zhongli, "However, even so, my body is so tall that I absolutely cannot be his bodyguard."
"Leave this to me."
Osial sensed something from Zhongli's tone.
He fell for the trap.
No, I have other excuses... no, reasons.
But Zhongli had no time to argue.
Zhongli gently moved his hand, and Osial felt his body begin to change.
Osial noticed that Zhongli in front of him was getting bigger and bigger.
Wrong,
It's not that Zhongli is getting bigger, but that I am constantly getting smaller.
In no time, Osial shrank to the size of a fist.
Then Zhongli took out a jade pendant, and the miniature version of Osial entered the jade pendant.
At last,
Zhongli waved his hand, holding Osial's jade pendant as he faced the sea.
After doing all that, Zhongli rubbed his forehead.
Even for him, shrinking Osial and throwing him into the jade pendant was no easy task.
"Phew, this Bai Ye will be much safer for me."
Zhongli left the seaside.
Meanwhile, at the beach, Grandma Yu was waiting for him.
"Your the Geo Archon, are you finished?"
"Um."
Zhongli nodded slightly.
"Let's go back to Liyue."
"Um."
At this time,
In the deeper waters, Batrice, Osial's former kin and wife, was stirring violently.
She had just realized that her husband's presence had disappeared.
This terrified her.
I'm afraid something might happen to Osial.
So she kept moving around trying to break free of her restraints, eager to see what Osial would do.
However, she is under many restrictions, and it is estimated that it will take several more months for her to recover.
