Ch 220 : The Wanderer and Dottore

"Hahahaha... Dottore, we finally meet again!"

Seeing Dottore arrive, the Wanderer laughed happily.

"I've really wanted to see you, because only by seeing you, I can slice you into a thousand pieces, and make you feel this extreme pain…"

"Meet again?" In response to the Wanderer's words, Dottore showed a confused expression.

"Have we met before? Why do you say 'meet again'?"

"Though, I do sense a familiar aura from you, something similar to my segment technique…"

"But that's not important now. Before meeting you, I fantasized about us becoming friends, but now, having seen your character, I've abandoned that thought…"

"There's absolutely no way we could get along, we will never become friends…"

"So, facing you, who possesses such eerie power, I will kill you without mercy…"

"Although I do want to experiment on you, to see how you manipulate this eerie power… but time doesn't allow for it. Right now, my time is very limited…"

Dottore then looked toward Raiden Shogun and spoke impatiently: "Raiden Shogun, is it done yet? If you still haven't regained control of your body, then forget it…"

"Let me first have a little chat with this Wanderer!"

The Wanderer watched Dottore warily in front of him.

Due to the Irminsul, he almost knew everything about Dottore and understood just how terrifying this man truly was…

Even without Eerie powers, his strength was among the top ranks in Teyvat…

Dottore's modifications to his body had reached a mad, insane level.

From this perspective, he could no longer be considered a "human" in the strictest sense…

His techniques were strange and unpredictable, and his trump cards seemed endless…

Because of his segment ability, it seemed no one had ever been able to corner him completely…

But what the Wanderer feared the most was that he "almost" knew everything about Dottore, which meant there was still a small portion that remained unknown…

In a very critical matter about Dottore, the Irminsul either didn't display the content or it had been deliberately hidden or erased…

This meant that Dottore, as a native of Teyvat, had managed to break through the underlying laws of Teyvat, keeping some of his secrets beyond the watchful eye of the Irminsul…

Dottore looked at the Wanderer, smiling as he slowly spoke, "Since you know I also wield Eerie powers, why don't you use your own Eerie powers to compete with me?"

"Well, since that's the case, I don't want to resort to any underhanded moves..."

"After all, the most basic requirement of many experiments is balance and fairness..."

As Dottore spoke, numerous strange and bizarre instruments floated around him, surrounding him on all sides.

"These are some of the little inventions I usually tinker with. Let me show them to you, Wanderer!"

The Wanderer focused intently, cross-referencing the inventions surrounding Dottore with the information he had obtained from the Irminsul, searching for ways to counter them...

That laser gun-like device caused extremely high damage, but its turning speed was slow.

By moving quickly and swaying from side to side, he could relatively easily avoid its attack...

The tracking missiles weren't fast at first, but they would continuously absorb the elemental energy in the air, becoming faster and more powerful.

So, the trick was to destroy them right after they were launched...

And then there were the two flying devices that resembled nails.

Their attacks seemed difficult to land on anyone, but their true killing move lay in the extremely sharp, almost invisible metal thread tied between them...

If one were completely unprepared for this attack and mocked how the nails missed their target, flying off to places far out of reach, the next moment they would be caught off guard and have their necks sliced open by the metal thread...

So, over time, a very strange phenomenon began to occur:

No matter what invention Dottore produced, the Wanderer could immediately find its flaw and quickly neutralize it...

Dottore looked at the Wanderer with a confused, puzzled expression, unable to comprehend, and spoke:

"Though these are trivial little gadgets, they definitely contain a lot of my thought and effort... and you've managed to solve them so easily and effortlessly?"

"Wanderer, are you like a worm in my stomach? Your understanding of these inventions is almost as if you and I had collaborated in creating them..."

"I admit, now I'm a bit intrigued by you... I've changed my mind. I don't want to kill you anymore. Although I know your temperament, we might not get along, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends!"

"Spit!"

In response to Dottore's extended hand, the Wanderer contemptuously spat on it, landing a perfect shot.

Dottore still maintained his smile, but his cheek and eyelid twitched uncontrollably...

"It's fine. You don't respect me, and that was expected. I won't care about such a small detail..."

"Spit!"

The Wanderer spat again, this time directly onto Dottore's face!

Dottore took a tissue from his pocket and slowly wiped the spit off his face, still maintaining a smile.

However, the frequency and intensity of his cheek and eyelid twitching had significantly increased compared to before...

"It's fine. I don't care about these things at all," Dottore said. "But my patience is limited..."

"Dottore, give up on this thought!"

"I've heard that each of your segments, although independent individuals, still share sensory experiences and memories..."

"So your existence means nothing more than being tortured by me again and again! For every segments you have, I'll make you experience that pain over and over again!"

"Wanderer, your vocabulary and imagination are a bit lacking..." Dottore slowly replied.

"The only way you can think of to torture someone is by slicing them repeatedly?"

"How about I help you come up with a few more ideas? I don't know why you hate me so much, but as long as you cooperate with me for research, I wouldn't mind letting you play around torturing a couple of segments..."

"Research? Who would want to cooperate with you, and who would want to join you in those boring, pointless, and absolutely useless experiments?" the Wanderer retorted mercilessly.

But after the Wanderer finished speaking, Dottore's expression suddenly turned dark...

"What did you just say? You called my research boring, pointless, and useless?"

"You can insult me, but you cannot insult my research!"

In the next instant, an overwhelmingly intense Eerie power erupted from Dottore's body!
