Chapter 164: Resurrection of the Snow Mountain Dragon Bone

Paimon and the Traveler, through their caution and clever use of the environment, successfully evaded wave after wave of Fatui patrols.

Whenever there was the sound of patrol footsteps approaching, the traveler would always quickly find a suitable hiding place, either in a narrow crevice or under the shadow of a huge rock. Paimon also followed the traveler closely, trying to control his nervous breathing.

Once, a Fatui soldier almost reached their hiding place, and Paimon was so nervous that he almost screamed. The Traveler covered Paimon's mouth in time, and the two of them did not move until the soldier left.

In this tense and dangerous environment, the Traveler and Paimon cooperated with each other and finally avoided all patrols without any danger.

Finally, they saw a strange device in a place that was inputting unknown energy into a skeleton.

The Ice Crystal Warlock, who had her back to them, said, "Haha, it seems like I, your sister, won't be too bored. Do you think you're hiding well, little mice?"

Brother Thunder Hammer: "Curiosity kills the cat. Be careful in your next life and don't get close to the Fatui's stronghold easily."

Paimon: "What should we do? We've been discovered."

Ying took out her edgeless sword and prepared to fight.

Ying stared at the enemy in front of him with a determined look and said, "Since we've been discovered, let's fight!"

The Ice Crystal Warlock turned around and sneered, "How dare you challenge the authority of the Fatui?"

Paimon summoned up the courage to shout, "Don't underestimate us, we are not afraid of you!"

Brother Lei Hammer waved the giant hammer in his hand and shouted, "Then let you taste my power!" Then he rushed towards Ying and Paimeng.

Ying dodged Thunder Hammer's attack with a swift movement, then swung her sword at his arm. Thunder Hammer roared in pain, then attacked even more frantically.

The Ice Crystal Warlock was not to be outdone and summoned Ice Crystal Insects in an attempt to interfere with Ying and Paimon.

Paimon flew around in the air, dodging attacks while cheering for Ying: "Come on, Traveler!"

Ying responded calmly to the enemy's siege, used sharp sword moves, and engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy.

The Fatui soldiers activated their elemental shields, significantly reducing the damage done by the Traveler's sword.

Ying frowned, realizing that ordinary attacks were unlikely to be effective. She quickly adjusted her strategy, harnessing elemental power to attach to her sword.

Paimon shouted anxiously, "Traveler, be careful, their shield looks difficult to break!"

Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Don't worry, Paimon, I will find a way."

She concentrated her energy, sensing the flow of the elements around her, channeling the wind element into her sword, and attacked the Fatui soldiers once again. The sword and shield collided, emitting a brilliant burst of light, and a crack appeared on the shield.

Seeing this, the Ice Crystal Warlock increased his control over the Ice Crystal Worms, and more Ice Crystal Worms attacked Ying.

Ying dodged the attacks of the Iceworms while continuing to attack the shields of the Fatui soldiers.

Sweat had already soaked her forehead, but her eyes were still filled with determination and unyielding spirit. She used the wind element to diffuse the various elements on their shields, causing them to restrain each other and become paralyzed on the spot.

Paimon clapped his hands excitedly: "Traveler, you are awesome!"

Ying seized the opportunity, pointed her sword at the Fatui, and rushed forward quickly. Her sword flashed a cold light in the air and instantly stabbed at Brother Lei Hammer.

Thunder Hammer's eyes widened, he tried to struggle but was powerless. Ying's sword pierced his vitals with pinpoint accuracy, and Thunder Hammer fell to the ground.

When the Ice Crystal Warlock saw this scene, her face turned extremely ugly, and she tried to control the Ice Crystal Worm to attack again.

Ying didn't give her a chance and rushed towards the Bingying Warlock with a whistling sword.

The Ice Ying Warlock tried to retreat in fear, but it was too late. Ying's sword mercilessly slashed through her body, and the Ice Ying Warlock fell to the ground.

Paimon flew over and said happily, "Traveler, we succeeded!"

Ying put away the sword and breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, but we can't let our guard down. Let's see if there are any other secrets around here."

Suddenly, the skeleton connected to the device revived, and a chill swept through everyone present. The Fatui soldiers immediately retreated, and they had no time to care about the invader.

Paimon was so frightened that he was shaking all over. He said in a trembling voice, "Traveler, what...what is this thing? It's so scary!"

Ying gripped the sword tightly in her hand, staring intently at the gradually resurrecting skeleton, and said, "Don't be afraid, Paimon, let's see what's going on first."

The skeleton let out a creepy roar and exuded a dark aura.

Paimon hid behind Ying, his voice filled with tears: "Traveler, let's go quickly, I feel this thing is too dangerous!"

Ying gritted her teeth and said firmly, "No, we can't just leave like this. We have to find out what's going on."

Just then, the skeleton suddenly pounced towards them.

Ying and Paimon dodged the attack, looking at the bones as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They slowly gathered together.

The skeletons are put together to form the shape of a dragon, but the cave cannot support it and may collapse at any time.

Paimon yelled in panic: "Traveler, the cave is about to collapse, run!"

While dodging the attacks of the dragon-shaped skeleton, Ying shouted, "Paimon, find a safe place to hide first!"

Paimon circled anxiously in the air: "No, I can't leave you alone!"

At this time, rocks continued to fall from the top of the cave and the ground began to shake violently.

Ying seized an opportunity, rushed towards Paimeng, and pulled her towards the cave entrance.

The dragon-shaped skeleton was chasing closely behind, spewing black flames from its mouth.

Ying and Paimeng dodged left and right, in danger all around.

Just as they were approaching the cave entrance, a huge rock blocked their way.

Ying raised her sword without hesitation and slashed at the rock with all her strength.

At that critical moment, Ying exerted all her might, gathering powerful elemental force to destroy it, and finally split the huge rock into a crack. Paimon quickly crawled out of the crack, followed closely by Ying.

However, the dragon-shaped skeleton continued to pursue them and was about to catch up with them.

Suddenly, a huge rock fell from the top of the cave and hit the dragon-shaped skeleton, trapping it temporarily.

Ying and Paimon took the opportunity to speed up their pace and finally escaped from the cave.

As soon as I got out of the cave, I heard a loud noise behind me. The whole cave collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

Paimeng patted his chest with lingering fear: "It was a close call, I almost couldn't get out."

Ying looked at the collapsed cave and breathed a sigh of relief: "I finally escaped, but the secret inside has not been completely solved yet."

Paimon nodded repeatedly: "Yes, let's investigate it slowly later. Let's leave here first."

So, Ying and Paimon left this dangerous place with full of doubts and fatigue.

Paimon: "Let's talk about this with the Adventurer's Guild."

Catherine: "Towards the stars and the abyss, welcome to the Adventurer's Guild. Hello, traveler, how may I help you?"

"Something incredible happened over there in the snowy mountains..."

Seeing their expressions, Catherine immediately took it seriously: "Please tell me slowly, what exactly happened?"

Ying took a deep breath and began to describe in detail the Fatui she encountered in the cave, the resurrected skeleton, and the dangerous scene of near collapse.

Paimon added some details from time to time, gesturing with his hands.

Catherine listened and took notes, her expression becoming increasingly serious.

After finishing the report, Ying said, "I hope the association will pay attention to this situation and take appropriate measures."

Catherine nodded solemnly: "Thank you for your courage and dedication. We will study and deal with it as soon as possible."

When Ying and Paimon left the Adventurer's Guild, a big stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground temporarily.

They felt that it was not safe enough, and Catherine suggested that they also report to the Knights Templar to see what disaster might happen next.

Ying and Paimon looked at each other, nodded, and then rushed towards the Knights without stopping.

Along the way, Paimon said worriedly, "Traveler, what on earth is going on? How could such a terrifying thing suddenly appear?"

Ying pondered for a moment and said, "It's not clear yet, but I feel like there must be some huge conspiracy behind it."

Soon, they arrived at the Knights.

The knight on guard saw their haste and asked, "What happened?"

Ying said anxiously, "We have important information to report to Captain Qin."

The knight quickly took them to see Captain Qin.

Headmaster Qin was busy with some business. When he saw them come in, he put down the documents in his hand and asked, "Do you have any emergency to report?"

Ying recounted in detail what she had seen and heard in the cave. Her voice echoed in the quiet room, and everyone listened attentively.

After listening to this, Captain Qin's expression became extremely serious. She stood up and said in a firm tone: "This matter is of no trivial importance. We must be fully prepared to deal with possible disasters." Her eyes revealed a sense of responsibility and determination, as if she was ready to face any challenge.

Lisa frowned and said worriedly, "If that guy really is resurrected, then it will be a lot of trouble... What exactly are the Fatui planning to do?" There was a hint of uneasiness and confusion in her voice, and she seemed to be very puzzled by the Fatui's intentions.

Paimon blinked and asked curiously, "Which guy?"

Lisa took a deep breath and said slowly: "The Demon Dragon Durin." This name seemed to have a heavy history and mysterious power, which made people feel awe.

Ying's expression also grew serious, and she said, "The Demonic Dragon Durin? Wasn't that a being that had already been destroyed?"

Lisa shook her head and said, "Perhaps the Fatui have mastered some method we don't know of and are trying to revive it. If that's the case, it would be a huge disaster."

Paimon clenched his fists nervously and said, "Then what should we do?"

Captain Jean pondered for a moment and said, "We must quickly gather more intelligence to understand the Fatui's plans and strengthen Mondstadt's defenses."

Everyone nodded, then got up and prepared to take action.

At Captain Qin's command, the entire Knights sprang into action. On the city walls, soldiers stood in formation, spears and shields in hand, their gazes fixed firmly on the horizon.

Archers lined up neatly behind the battlements, arrows drawn, ready to be released at any moment. Their expressions were serious and focused, not missing a single movement.

At the city gates, huge chevaux de frise and roadblocks were placed in place to prevent possible enemies from forcing their way in. Knights rode their steeds, patrolling back and forth near the city gates, the sound of their hooves crisp and powerful.

Inside the city, logistics personnel were busy transporting supplies, weapons and armor were continuously delivered to the front lines, and healers also prepared herbs and bandages, ready to treat the wounded at any time.

On the streets, low-level adventurers, armed with rudimentary weapons, formed patrols to maintain order and calm the people.

In the command post, Captain Qin and several generals were discussing strategy in front of the map, their eyes full of determination and courage.

In a corner, Lisa whispered a spell, casting a protective spell for the coming battle. Ying and Paimon were also busy, moving among the crowd, cheering everyone on. A tense yet determined atmosphere permeated Mondstadt, as everyone made thorough preparations for the impending disaster.

There was a sudden movement on the snowy mountain, and a skeleton dragon flew towards Mond.

The wind howled, and the sky was instantly shrouded in thick shadows. The skeletal dragon spread its massive bony wings, approaching Mondstadt with a chilling aura.

The soldiers on the wall gasped at the sight, their grip on their weapons tightening. Captain Qin, gazing at the approaching terrifying figure, shouted, "Everyone, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Paimon was so frightened that he hid behind Ying, his voice trembling, "Traveler, this is truly terrifying!" Ying's gaze remained steadfast, and she gripped the bladeless sword tightly as she said firmly, "Don't be afraid, we will definitely be able to protect Mond."

The Skeleton Dragon's roar resounded like thunder, as if it was about to swallow the entire city whole. The dark power emanating from its body caused the surrounding temperature to plummet.

Although people were filled with fear, their unwavering determination to defend their homes prevailed. Archers aimed at the dragon skeleton and shot sharp arrows, but these arrows fell when they touched the hard skeleton.

The knights galloped on their horses and charged bravely towards the skeleton dragon, but they seemed so small in front of this behemoth.

The Fatui executive officer, "Madam," crossed her arms, raised the corners of her mouth, and said with a scornful smile, "Mond, do you need any help from the Fatui?"

Jean frowned, looked at the "lady" with a firm gaze, and responded decisively: "Mond's affairs will be resolved by Mond himself."

The lady raised an eyebrow, the contempt on her face intensifying. She took a step forward and said, "Do you think you can withstand this powerful skeleton dragon? Don't be so naive, Captain Qin."

Jyn straightened her back, clenched her fists, and said without flinching, "No matter what difficulties we face, Mond will never bow to the Fatui. We have our own strength and courage."

The Lady sneered, flicked her sleeves, and said, "Then you can just wait to be destroyed. Don't come begging us when the time comes."

Qin no longer paid attention to the "lady", turned around and strode towards the defensive position, continuing to direct the defense work calmly.
