Genshin Impact, Teyvat's own beloved immortal.

Lu Sheng drew his sword and faced the Wind Demon Dragon, leaping into the air as if riding the wind.

The violent wind cuts off the breath!

Mondstadt-Liyue Chapter: Chapter Seven: A Tribute to the Legendary Dreadnought King

To outsiders, Rikuo's act of charging towards the Wind Demon Dragon might seem like a rabbit on the grassland daring to face an eagle in the sky. The image of how tragic his end would be had already surfaced in the minds of the knights, including Qin.

But it seems... this rabbit is a little too agile.

Rikuo deftly dodged the gaping maw of the Stormterror in mid-air with a forward slash, his agile body darting around like a swift on the wind to the Stormterror's back, where he unleashed a series of consecutive slashes around its body.

The final blow came from a great leap, slamming heavily onto the head of the Stormterror.

The Stormterror shrieked, unleashing a powerful burst of elemental energy that sent Lu Sheng flying, before fleeing Mondstadt without looking back.

The Wind Demon Dragon is gone, taking with it the raging winds in the sky.

"Where is my Windwing?!"

Lu Sheng, feeling a sense of weightlessness, then realized that he hadn't obtained the Wings of Wind yet.

At that height, wouldn't a fall result in pieces scattered all over the place?

Damn it, I was so focused on looking cool that I forgot I can't fly! My Teyvat adventure is about to end before it even begins?

Wait! There's still a chance!

Lu Sheng suddenly remembered that the initial skill of the Rock attribute was called Stone Skin. If he understood correctly, it should make the skin as hard as stone, so that it could at least withstand some of the impact of falling.

If a tornado were to strike downwards before the impact, the force of the wind could also offset some of the impact.

After quickly reviewing the plan in his mind, Lu Sheng's body reacted almost immediately. He took out a bag full of Mora from his body and, without thinking twice, converted all the Mora into rock elemental power and absorbed it into his body.

[Ding! Elemental force detected, conversion in progress...]

[Geo Elemental level increased, new skill gained: Stone Skin.]

Stone Skin Technique! Activate!

In an instant, Lu Sheng's skin emitted a golden glow, a feeling of solidity and security unique to rocks.

"The wind is coming!"

Lu Sheng drew his sword and swung it, creating a whirlwind in an attempt to support his body.

Boom! !

A muffled thud landed in front of the statue of the goddess in Mondstadt, creating a large crater in the square.

Qin shouted loudly, "Quick! Go save them!"

When the Knights arrived at the scene, they found Riku lying motionless in the crater, spread-eagled.

"Dead...dead?"

"Looks like he's dead... he's already hard..."

"Stop arguing!"

"Cough! Cough cough cough!!"

Just as Qin was about to go up and check on the situation, Lu Sheng suddenly sat up straight, rubbing his lower back and groaning softly, "Ugh... my back..."

"To fall from such a height and wake up so quickly, the physique of the Descendants is indeed different from that of ordinary people."

Lu Sheng: Trying not to laugh.jpg

What do you mean by "generalizations are not possible"? That blond guy in the game can sleep quite a lot, right? He can even get knocked out by falling while he has Wind Wings.

what can i say?

"Quickly take the traveler to the church for the nuns to treat him." Qin then turned to Lu Sheng and said gently, "Thank you for driving away the Stormterror Dragon for us, which prevented greater damage. But the storm caused by the Stormterror Dragon is not over yet. I have to go protect the citizens first. I will come to see you after I am done."

"Actually, I... well, then thank you very much, Commander Qin."

In fact, after most of the impact was reduced, Rikuo only suffered a minor injury and did not need any treatment at all.

But when he heard that he could enter the church, he immediately changed his mind.

A moment later, Lu Sheng was helped into the church by two knights.

"Gotlind, Barbara, this is the warrior who drove away the Stormterror. He was injured, and Captain Jean instructed that he must be healed."

After the two soldiers put Lu Sheng down, they left the church to clean up the mess left by the Wind Demon Dragon.

The situation outside is in complete chaos, and most of the Knights of the Order of Mondstadt have been dispatched to clean up the mess.

Gotrind was extremely busy. Due to the sudden attack by the Stormterror, most of the wounded had been transferred to the church. As the elder nun, she wished she could be in two places at once to do the work.

"More wounded are arriving over there. Barbara, the hero is in your hands now."

"Don't worry, Ms. Gotlinde, healing is my specialty."

Barbara gently helped Rikuo lie down on the bed, and then used her water elemental power to treat him.

Lu Sheng felt an invisible hand gently caressing every inch of his skin, warm, soft, and tingling, just like the comforting touch of Technician No. 88.

After the treatment, my back pain was gone, my legs were no longer sore, and even my vision became much clearer.

The Church of the West Wind is a great place! I'll come again next time, and I'll order Barbara again!

"are you feeling better?"

Barbara asked softly with great concern.

"I feel much better, thank you Barbara."

"No need to thank me, it's just my duty. I heard from the Knights that you just drove away the Stormterror, is that true? That's incredible! I can't even imagine how a human could fight such a behemoth! If it were me, I would have already found somewhere to hide! Although I possess the Eye of God, I can't protect anyone..."

“You shouldn’t think like that, Barbara.” Rikuo noticed that Barbara was a little down, so he sat up from the bed and comforted her, “You’re an idol in Mondstadt, right? Idols have things to do, chefs have things to do, and warriors have things to do. Warriors don’t feel disappointed because they can’t sing and dance like their idols; they only feel proud to be able to fight on the battlefield. Similarly, chefs don’t complain because they can’t forge iron; they only strive to make more delicious dishes.”

"You are an idol, a source of spiritual comfort for soldiers who have returned from fighting outside. They need someone to help heal their wounds, to sing and dance to boost their morale. This is what an idol should do."

“You shouldn’t be anyone else, you just need to be yourself, Barbara.”

Barbara stood there, stunned, for a while before she came to her senses. All the distracting thoughts that had been lingering in her mind vanished in an instant.

"I think I understand! Thank you! I know what I need to do!"

"But it's so strange, Warrior. We've only just met, so why do I feel like you know me so well, like we've known each other for ages?"

Lu Sheng smiled faintly, "Well... I'm just naturally outgoing with everyone, you'll get used to it. Hmm... I'm mostly fine now, you go help Ms. Gotlinde first, let me rest quietly for a while."

"Okay! I'll head out now. Call me if you need anything!"

After Barbara left, Lu Sheng jumped out of bed and gently pushed open a crack in the door to observe the situation outside.

The entire city of Mondstadt is in complete chaos. All the nuns and guards in the church have been called away for disaster relief, meaning the church is now completely deserted.

This is a golden opportunity to steal the Sky Harp.

Mondstadt-Liyue Chapter: Chapter 8: The Fatui

This is why mainland students come to the church.

Steal the Sky Harp amidst the chaos, lest the Fools get there first.

As he suspected, the church was empty at this time of day; the guards and nuns were dealing with the mess left by the Wind Demon Dragon, making it easy to infiltrate.

Lu Sheng swaggered to the pedestal where the Sky Harp was enshrined and took it into his pocket.

[Ding! Elemental force detected, conversion in progress...]

[Wind element power has been upgraded, gaining the skill: Run! - Gain 100% movement speed when running away with your back to the enemy.]

[Next skill: Wind Control - The wind grants you invisible wings; when the wind rises, it is time for you to soar through the skies.]

"Huh? Isn't this just the Wings of Wind? A free wing from outside, and you're selling it to me as a level 6 skill? Aminos! This BYD system is getting more and more of a rip-off! Aminos!"

However, Lu Sheng hadn't expected that the Sky Harp would still have such a high concentration of wind elemental energy remaining, so it was a pleasant surprise.

This also demonstrates Barbatos's immense elemental power; it's just that so much wind elemental power remained on the harp he played. If one could obtain his Heart of God...

Ha, thinking about these things now is a bit far-fetched. Even the Wind Demon Dragon might not be able to solve it, so let's not think about things like the Heart of God for now.

One must walk one step at a time, and eat one bite at a time. Greed is a good thing, but the degree of greed must be linked to one's ability.

To have the courage to say "I want it all," you must first have the ability to accept it all.

Otherwise, one wrong move and you could become the legendary Clown King.

After obtaining the Sky Harp, Rikuo quickly returned to the church ward. He had only been gone for less than ten minutes, so Barbara and the others would definitely not notice.

The wind was still blowing outside the church. According to the plot, the Knights should go to the Temple of Westwind to destroy the energy source of the Stormterror.

Taking this opportunity, I can clear out all the monsters near Mondstadt and level up.

To kill Wind Demon Dragon, our current strength is still insufficient. The Gale Breath Slash we just used, even with all our might, only left a few shallow wounds on Wind Demon Dragon's body.

Several hours had passed, and the rumors in Mondstadt still hadn't stopped, but the Knights had already evacuated all the city's residents to safety.

After a busy day, Jean didn't have time to rest. She brought Lisa and Kayya to the church to check on Lu Sheng's condition. Amber and Noelle also came to help.

"What a reckless thing to do, you know? When you charged at the Wind Demon Dragon with that broken sword, I had already decided where to find your grave."

Kaia still finds the scene she witnessed outrageous.

He was simply stating his thoughts at the time, without any exaggeration.

"In short, we must thank the traveler for reducing casualties among the Knights and citizens. Mondstadt owes you a great debt of gratitude."

Jean stepped forward to express gratitude to Lu Sheng on behalf of the residents of Mondstadt and the Knights of Faith.

Lisa sat directly on the edge of the bed, took Lu Sheng's hand, and examined him closely as if he were a lab rat.

"Little cutie, how are you feeling? Still in pain? I have some special potions. How about we go back to the lab together later? Let me study how your body activates elemental power."

"Lisa, let the traveler rest. We have more important things to do. What progress has your research made on the Stormterror?"

Lisa put down Lu Sheng's hand and replied, "Of course there is. The reason why the Wind Demon Dragon can bring such a powerful storm is that it borrows the remaining power in the Temple of the West Wind. As long as the source is destroyed, the storm in the city will naturally stop."

"There's no time to lose, let's get moving. Every second we delay increases the danger to Mondstadt. You take your men and split up to destroy the Stormterror's energy source at the three Temples of Favonius. The rest of the knights and I will stay in the city to prevent Stormterror from launching another attack."

"Yes!"
