"Well..."

After a moment's thought, Yingmei shook her head with some distress: "To be honest, I don't have many feelings, but no matter what, Dvalin is innocent, and the real culprit is the Abyss. I really can't stand idly by."

Wendy's eyes were full of admiration and praise: "You truly are a traveler; you possess a noble soul."

"What about Gu Jing?"

Gu Jing, who was being stared at, glanced at him and said, "Don't expect me to have any lofty pronouncements. This is just work for me."

Wendy's eyes flickered, but her smile remained unchanged: "But I heard from the wind that you were saving a group of victims in Inazuma just a few days ago."

"If this is also part of your job..."

"You're so pitiful!"

As he said this, his eyes were filled with schadenfreude. "Moving things wherever they're needed! What kind of professional good Samaritan is this? No wonder Gu Jing enjoys his weekends so much! If it were Barbatos, he definitely wouldn't do this job! After all, long live freedom!"

Yingmei and Paimon, who both understood the humor, couldn't help but chuckle.

Glancing at the two of them, Gu Jing sneered and raised his fist: "Want to get beaten up again, huh?"

"Hey~"

Wendy tilted her head and let out another sigh.

Then, his smile faded slightly, and he became somewhat serious: "My friend, no matter what, I have to thank you."

"Mondstadt is the city of freedom, and the people of Mondstadt are the freest people of Teyvat."

"And since you've chosen to take on this job..."

"That's your freedom too."

"As your friend, I respect your freedom and wish you success in your work, and hope you can find more happiness outside of work."

At this moment, Wendy's serious demeanor made him seem somewhat divine.

Gu Jing nodded slightly in agreement, and then took out what he wanted most—the unused Mora along with the bag, and tossed it to him: "Here you go."

Wendy, whose movements were becoming increasingly skilled, grinned and said, "Thank you, boss!"

Everyone: "..."

Seeing this scene on the live stream, people had lost all hope for Wendy's integrity, and the people of Mondstadt felt their faces burning with shame.

******

Fully prepared, Gu Jing and his group entered the real Wind Dragon Ruins through the entrance to the secret realm.

Moreover, arriving at the right time is worse than arriving early. Upon entering the secret realm, the Abyss Singer, along with a group of Abyss Mages, was corrupting Dvalin. The Ice Abyss Mage kept urging, "Wake up! Poor dragon! He is just a god of freedom who talks about freedom!"

"You have become an enemy of Mondstadt!"

There's no turning back!

The entire realm echoed with Dvalin's agonizing howls, and Wendy's eyes reddened at the sight.

He raised his hand and fired a series of green arrows!

PS: The picture shows Yingmei.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ding! Your salary has been credited to your Alipay account!

A swirling, deep white cloud formation, eight floating platforms forming a circle, on one of the platforms, numerous abyss mages danced around a blue dragon like shamans, while a fire-attribute abyss chanter holding a spellbook chanted continuously.

Forced to experience the grace, Dvalin wailed incessantly, and Wendy raised her hand and fired a series of green arrows.

The Abyss Mage on the floating platform possesses three elements: water, fire, and ice. Venti's arrows transformed into vortexes of wind, instantly creating a spread effect. Water and fire evaporated, fire and ice melted, water and ice froze... various elemental reactions directly shattered the shield.

Gu Jing followed closely behind, but the humanoid demon armor had already appeared many times, and this time it was the [Project Origin] series of humanoid armor.

"Face the storm!"

"Hasaki!"

"drink!"

But then Yasuo from Project Origin suddenly appeared and attacked, arriving in front of the Abyss Mage in the blink of an eye. In addition, Gu Jing used the technology of the Fourth Divine Key as his power core, and he could also imitate the Unstoppable Gale Sword Technique to a great extent.

Her silky figure seemed to move with the wind, leaving behind sword marks as she swiftly and decisively killed dozens of abyssal monsters who were not protected by elemental shields.

As he sheathed his sword, he vanished in a flash of light, leaving behind a boastful remark in everyone's ears: "Death is like the wind, always by my side."

******

But perhaps because he had just been through so much suffering, Dvalin, who was lying on the platform panting, did not suddenly launch an attack at this moment.

Gu Jing smiled and looked at Yingmei: "It's your turn to make a move."

Yingmei nodded solemnly: "Yes!"

There are two abyssal curses on Dvalin's body, one on the back of his neck and the other on his back.

This is a curse woven from three deadly poisons: the blood swallowed in the past, the whispers of visitors from the abyss, and the sorrow of being forgotten.

However, these curses were not a big problem for Yingmei, even though she didn't know the reason behind them.

Of course, the process of removing the curse was also very painful for Dvalin.

Fortunately, Wendy didn't slack off and kept whispering comforting words in Dvalin's ear: "Dvalin, just bear with it a little longer, it'll be over soon."

"My friends are helping you break the curse of the abyss."

"Perhaps this process will be a little painful."

"But please believe me."

"You'll recover soon."

"Then we'll be able to soar freely through the sky again..."

Gu Jing couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. This scene reminded him of parents comforting a child who was afraid of injections.

However... there are actually two key points to resolving the Dragon Plague: [① Remove the curse from Dvalin; ② Counter the Abyss Order's lurking presence.]

In the system's assessment, this quest is rated a gold 5-star difficulty, and the rewards for completing it are quite generous: [Completing requirement ① will reward 3000 Primogems, completing requirement ② will reward 5000 Primogems, for a total of 8000 Primogems.]

The difficulty of completing requirement ② is actually greater than that of requirement ①? Clearly, these losers from the abyss are too obsessed with drowning out the principles of justice!

It is impossible to easily abandon the plan to transform Tvalin.

But for working-class people, these losers from the abyss are really Gu Jing's good brothers!

About ten minutes later.

As Yingmei completely removed the curse from Dvalin, she and Gu Jing heard the notification sound from the diary.

【Ding--】

[The quest 'The Dragon Plague Enveloping Mondstadt' has been completed!]

[Contribution percentage for this commission: Gu Jing 30%, Traveler Ying 70%.]

Clearly, the Abyss Mage, who was deliberately let go by Gu Jing on the outskirts of the Wind Dragon Ruins, had already told his brother-in-law what had happened there, and Brother Long, out of respect for Yingmei, chose to abandon the plan to modify Dvalin.

[Travel Agency]

After a long separation, Wendy and Dvalin, who still had a lot to say to each other, stayed at the Storm Dragon Ruins, while Gu Jing returned to his office with Yingmei and Paimon.

The high-tech Paradise Hall piqued the curiosity of Paimon and Yingmei, but they were both a little reserved since it was their first time there. They remained silent until they followed Gu Jing to the sofa in the lounge.

Gu Jing couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing this: "Speaking of which, you two are the first guests to enter my home. However, as you can see, I was in Teyvat the whole time, so I don't have much to offer you. Please forgive me for that."

Paimon, floating in the air, crossed his arms and said smugly, "Hmph~ Since there's a reason for this, Paimon will reluctantly forgive you, but next time you'd better prepare double for me!"

At this point, he solemnly held up two fingers.

It somewhat overshadowed the main subject.

But Gu Jing found it rather cute and reached out to pat her head: "I'll definitely do it next time."

Then he looked at Yingmei and gave her a thumbs up: "You did a good job this time. According to the contribution of the commission, I only account for 30%, but you contributed 70%."

"The reward for resolving the dragon calamity is 8 raw stones."

"Based on a 70% contribution rate, you will receive 5600 Primogems."

Are you happy?

Yingmei smiled happily upon hearing this, but she was also a little confused. She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and replied, "I am indeed a little happy, but isn't the profit split 30/70 during the trial period?"

Gu Jing couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this: "How should I put it? You're really too honest right now. Have you not recovered your memories yet?"

"I'm actually looking forward to seeing how you reveal your true nature after you regain your memories."

"As for the probationary period compensation, it's split 30/70?"

"This, of course, refers to you taking a cut of the commission when you're handling the commission yourself."

"I'm not some heartless capitalist."

“Large-scale projects that we participate in together should of course be distributed according to our respective contributions.”

"In other words, it means distribution according to work, and more work, more pay."

"Moreover, the number of commissions is as you can see."

"As long as Teyvat exists."

"All sorts of requests are updated here every day."

"If we split it 30/70..."

"You'll essentially be working for me to earn raw gems for the rest of the time."

Yingmei: "—!!!"

But then she saw a light bulb light up on her head, and Yingmei, who had unconsciously widened her eyes, suddenly realized!

A full month trial period!

During this period, each commission was split 30/70!

I'll only take 30% of myself!
