Original God, if I am beaten by them, I will become stronger

I have no grudge against Miss Eula and this is even the first time we meet. She shouldn't look at me like that, right?

The blue-haired female knight stared at Lin Qiu and asked the traveler, "Is this gentleman the hero who is famous in Inazuma and Liyue?"

"Well, that's right." The traveler looked a little confused, not knowing why Eula was staring at Lin Qiu.

"Excuse me, I want to talk to him alone, is that okay?" Eula asked.

Ying hesitated for a few seconds and nodded. Although the atmosphere was a bit strange, the traveler believed that Lawrence's descendant, Eula, would not do anything out of line.

Then, Youla looked at Lin Qiu again and asked, "Great hero, can I talk to you alone?"

Lin Qiu nodded.

When he approached the carriage, his aura seemed to be about to eat him alive, but after opening the door, Eula still politely asked for his opinion.

What is this? First the military, then the courtesy?

Despite this, Lin Qiu still felt a little strange and couldn't understand what the other party wanted to do.

He got off the carriage and followed Eula to the middle of the bridge amid the puzzled gazes of the travelers.

Amber followed from a distance, and from her expression, it could be seen that she seemed to know something.

After arriving a little further away from the carriage, the blue-haired female knight introduced herself: "My name is Eula, Eula Lawrence, a descendant of a Mondstadt sinner..."

"I don't judge a person based on his background or rumors, but on what he has done." Lin Qiu said with a smile, "So, forget about claiming to be the descendant of a sinner. Just tell me what you want to talk about."

When Youla heard Lin Qiu say that he didn't care about his background, she was stunned for a few seconds, then she reacted and continued to explain: "The traveler's letter said that you had a close relationship with her... Later I heard many strange rumors about you, so I wanted to see what kind of person you are..."

Before the traveler arrived, Eula read the letter and felt something was wrong, so she collected rumors about Linqiu.

After hearing the exaggerated rumors told by the Liyue storyteller, especially Lin Qiu's bizarre love history, Eula was a little worried that the traveler had been deceived by him.

Although Lin Qiu is famous and helped Liyue and Inazuma escape danger, there are many famous heroes in legends who can be described as "righteous but not polite". They have made great military achievements and are honored, but they have perverse personalities and do not treat people around them well.

Considering the various rumors about Lin Qiu and his special status of having a legal harem, Eula was very worried about her traveler friend.

So before the traveler arrived, Eula made up her mind. She planned to ask Lin Qiu to come out and talk to her alone when the traveler arrived to see what kind of character Lin Qiu was.

However, Lin Qiu's first sentence choked her directly, making it difficult for Eula to speak clearly.

Don't judge a person based on his background or rumors.

Not based on her origin, the whole sentence hit Eula's heart. As the descendant of a sinner, she was rejected by too many Mondstadt people who paid attention to origin. The second half of the sentence, not based on rumors, made the female knight feel guilty.

She realized that she had hastily judged Lin Qiu based on rumors, and even assumed that he was a man of great integrity but no manners. This was a huge mistake, just like the Mond people who hastily defined her based on her background.

At this moment, Lin Qiu took the initiative to ask: "So now, what do you think of me?"

Hearing this, the blue-haired female knight with the name of Wave Knight was silent for a few seconds, then bowed her head slightly to apologize, "I shouldn't have believed those rumors outside and arbitrarily defined you as a bad guy. Sorry... I'm sorry."

The following words emerged in Lin Qiu's mind: Miss Eula, you don't want your friend the Traveler to know that you did such a rude thing, right?

But he is a kind, sunny and cheerful boy, so he can't say such things casually, especially to the beautiful knight he just met.

To be honest, it’s after we get familiar with each other.

Lin Qiu said nonchalantly: "I don't mind. Besides, caring for friends is a good virtue. Besides, you didn't do anything too out of line. Let's go, Miss Eula, let's go back to the carriage and look for the traveler."

Youla agreed, feeling a little grateful in her heart, and the two of them walked towards the carriage in front of the city gate.

While the two were talking, Amber was standing by, watching nervously, and trying to interrupt and make jokes to stop the conversation.

Seeing that both parties completed the communication peacefully and Eula realized her mistake and recklessness, Amber breathed a sigh of relief and a look of joy appeared on her face.

The girl with long brown hair came up to Lin Qiu and said happily, "Hello, my name is Amber, and I'm a scout knight from Mondstadt."

"Hello, my name is Lin Qiu, and I'm what you might call a great hero." Lin Qiu responded to Amber's enthusiasm and introduced himself.

"Although I don't know what you just said, I'd like to apologize again on behalf of Eula. I'm very sorry, please forgive her." Amber clasped her hands together and said, "Eula values ​​her friends very much. She was anxious when she received the letter, so she did that!"

What Amber said was true. Eula had few friends, but she attached great importance to every one of them. Moreover, in Eula's impression, travelers were not people who were easy to be conquered, so she became suspicious of Lin Qiu.

A combination of factors prompted her to behave in such a somewhat disrespectful way.

"Even though they called me away from the car in a threatening manner and had a private conversation with me, it's not a big deal in the end. I forgot about it while I was having a meal." Lin Qiu replied to Amber calmly, "After all, I'm not the type of person who is good at holding grudges."

As soon as she finished speaking, although Eula's expression did not change, she still turned her head slightly.

The three of them returned to the carriage where the travelers were, and Paimon and Walnut looked at them with confusion and curiosity.

Paimon asked, "Eula, you just asked Lin Qiu to go out. What did you say?"

When Youla was about to speak, Lin Qiu interrupted and said, "Nothing, this knight lady is actually my fan and asked me for an autograph."

Eula hesitated and finally said nothing.

"Strange, can't you ask for an autograph in the car?" Paimeng was even more confused.

Finally, their carriage passed the inspection of the gatekeeper knights and successfully entered Mondstadt.

Chapter 145 Barbara was taken away (6k)

After Eula's little episode, Lin Qiu successfully entered Mondstadt.

He timed his trip perfectly, just like a student entering the classroom at the last minute before the bell rang. The day he arrived in Mondstadt was the first day of Barbara's concert.

When we entered Mondstadt, the concert had not yet started.

Of course, his main task is to investigate and deal with the incident regarding the second doctor's slice and the Heart of the Rock God, and to recover the Heart of God.

According to Grandpa Zhongli, after you recover the Heart of God, you don't have to return it to him, you can keep it for your own use, perhaps as a very convenient source of mana.

This way, there is no need to trouble Xinhai.

However, Lin Qiu is not a ruthless machine that completes tasks. He has to watch Barbara's concert and recover the Heart of God from Yan Shen. Only then can he be considered healthy.

Before that, just in case, he first activated the ability to search and locate the Fatui.

Strangely, the Doctor's location is not marked, even with a cursory search.

This situation proves that the slice of the second traitor, the doctor, is not in Mond. To be precise, there is no executive officer in Mond at this moment.

Could it be that the information is wrong?

Lin Qiu thought for a moment and thought: Forget it, since Dr. Slice is not here, I will put this task aside for now and accompany the Travelers to watch the concert first.

Eula and the others did not follow because this concert was so grand and as elite members of the Knights, they were responsible for vigilance and maintaining law and order.

The carriage that Lin Qiu and the girls were in finally slowly drove to Mond Square, near the huge statue of the god of wind, and stopped there without moving forward.

Because the concert stage was placed in front of the statue of the God of Wind, there were already huge crowds of people around the stage, so even if the carriage wanted to continue moving forward, it could not.

Besides, Lin Qiu is a great hero, not a villain. He would not say something extremely evil to the driver like: Isn’t the sidewalk very spacious?

Lin Qiu touched the unicorn's horn and woke up Ganyu who was still sleeping, and then the four of them got off the carriage.

The stage was built very high, and although the much-anticipated idol girl had not yet appeared on stage, people's enthusiasm and boldness could already be clearly felt.

Before he knew it, Lin Qiu discovered that the Traveler and Paimon were missing, probably separated by the crowd.

He should have prepared countermeasures earlier, such as carrying Hu Tao on his back, and letting Ganyu and Ying stand on his left and right respectively, holding hands, so as to truly achieve "you are all my wings" and they will never get separated.

But it was too late to think about this now. Fortunately, the traveler was not a child and would not get lost so easily. In addition, she was very familiar with Mondstadt's environment and people, so even if she was separated from the main group, the situation would not be too bad.

It's impossible that Mondstadt's honorary knight disappeared in Mondstadt.

Thinking of this, Lin Qiu no longer worried about where the traveler had gone. After today's concert was over and the crowd dispersed, he would naturally be able to find Sister Ying.

As long as the walnuts are not lost, it's fine.

Ganyu's life was so long that she must have visited Mondstadt before for diplomatic and other matters. However, this was the first time for the teenage girl from the Hall of Rebirth to visit Mondstadt. She was unfamiliar with the place and it would be very troublesome for her to separate from the main group.

But Hu Tao is not a well-behaved child. When Lin Qiu came to his senses, the girl from the Hall of Rebirth had disappeared, and only the dozing Ganyu was left beside him.

He couldn't stop complaining in his heart: What happened? Two sober people disappeared without me noticing, and only the sleeping coconut sheep is left by my side!

When Lin Qiu saw that he was holding Ganyu's hand, he remembered that the Qilin girl was drowsy when she got off the car, and in order to prevent her from accidentally falling, Lin Qiu had been holding her hand. Because of this, Ganyu was the only one who did not get lost.

Ah this...

It doesn't matter if the eccentric Master Hu temporarily leaves the main force. After all, with her personality, she is not afraid of encountering any dangerous situations.

Even if she encounters human traffickers, there will be no danger. Only Hu Tao will be the one to abduct the traffickers. After all, she is very smart at a young age.

Thinking of this, Lin Qiu no longer worried about where the two were going. They wouldn't get lost in Mondstadt.

He continued to hold Ganyu's hand and walked deeper into the crowd, trying to get as close to the stage as possible.

At this moment, Ganyu gradually regained consciousness, turned her head left and right, and watched the spectacular scene of the concert in Mondstadt.

Ganyu patted her cheek with one hand, regaining her consciousness, and commented: "Most Mondstadt people don't care about money. Instead, they pursue a free and easy life according to the will of the God of Wind. That's why there are so many people at the concert."

When they heard that Miss Barbara was going to have a concert, everyone enthusiastically put down their current work and came to Mond Square to give their sincere support. Even working people would give up their wages to give support and encouragement, or just join in the fun.

For them, work and accumulating wealth are not important at all. As long as they have enough money for today's drinks in their pockets, it is enough for them to have a happy day.

This is the Mond way of life.

Although this approach would make the economy and development of the entire city-state as unreliable and spontaneous as a drunken wind god, the fine wines exported by the Château d'Aime winery and the tourism industry developed in the city would be sufficient to maintain the most basic operations.

After listening to Ganyu's comments, Lin Qiu agreed: "If you are talking about retirement, this place should be the most suitable. If you are talking about working to accumulate wealth, then Liyue is the best area. The seven countries of Teyvat have a variety of characteristics. In a sense, it is really romantic."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a small figure, a little girl in red clothes, who was jumping in the crowd, trying to cross the high wall formed by the crowd to see the scene on the concert stage.

But the girl's height could not support her idea after all. No matter how she jumped, she could not get over the crowded crowd. Seeing this scene, Lin Qiu took Ganyu and walked forward.

"Hello, Xiao Keli, what's your name?" Lin Qiu just finished speaking when he realized something was wrong, as if he had said something strange.

Since he already knew the girl's name, he called her by her name, but since it was their first time meeting each other, he followed the standard "what's your name, little girl" approach and asked the girl's name.

After listening to Lin Qiu's speech, Ganyu blinked in confusion.

The girl turned her head and looked at the stranger Lin Qiu, showing a childlike smile and replied: "Keli's name is Keli, where are the big brother and big sister?"

"My name is Lin Qiu, her name is Ganyu, and we are here to travel to Mondstadt," Lin Qiu replied, and then asked, "Little Klee, where is your guardian?"

Ke Li replied, "Captain Qin is very busy. Even today, she is still working in the office. She has a lot of papers called 'documents' that she can't finish writing. She needs to write and organize them, so she asked Brother Kaiya to take me to the concert."

Lin Qiu turned his head and looked around, but he didn't see Kaiya. He asked in confusion, "So, where is Kaiya? He doesn't seem to be here."

The little girl nodded and replied, "Keli accidentally let brother Kaia get lost..."

Lin Qiu thought: Kaiya must have accidentally let you get lost.

"Want to watch the concert?" Lin Qiu said with a smile, "Come on, let me carry you."

"Thank you, Brother Lin Qiu is a good man!" The little girl showed a happy expression.

Klee's backpack was stuffed full. When Lin Qiu carried her and the backpack on his back, he actually felt that it was a bit heavy. The weight of Klee and the backpack was even as heavy as Ayaka-chan's, which was a bit unbelievable.

Lin Qiu was a little worried that the little elf girl wouldn't grow taller. Carrying this kind of thing around for a long time would be bad for her growth! Just like when you are a child, you often do weight-bearing running and weightlifting, which will easily make your height fixed and difficult to grow taller.

If you think about it carefully, you don't have to worry too much about this problem. Klee has hundreds or thousands of years to grow up slowly, and running around with a bomb on her back during her childhood probably won't have much of an impact.

While Lin Qiu was thinking about this, Ke Li was looking at the stage happily - the concert had begun.

A blonde girl with twin ponytails in a long skirt came to the center of the stage. She used the Eye of the Water Element God to create a large number of bubbles, which glowed like a rainbow under the sunlight.

The appearance of Mond idol Barbara and the beautiful colors of the Water God's Eye instantly made everyone present burst into warm cheers.

Beautiful bubbles slowly floated towards the crowd, and the cheers became louder and louder. Barbara faced everyone in Mond with a smile, waiting quietly for them to quiet down before starting the performance.

"So beautiful, Sister Barbara, and Bubble, they are all so beautiful!" Keli said happily and excitedly, and then he asked Lin Qiu, "Brother Lin Qiu, do you think so too?"

Lin Qiu did not answer immediately, but turned his gaze to Ganyu beside him and asked his companion with his eyes: Can I feel that way?

If it was a jealous fox lady, she would probably use her fingertips with lightning elements to quietly poke Lin Qiu's waist, but Ganyu just responded with a gentle smile.

"Well, Barbara is very beautiful!" Lin Qiu answered Ke Li honestly.

"Where's Bubble?" Keli asked again.

"Oh, I forgot to mention." Lin Qiu added, "The bubbles are beautiful too."

"Sister Barbara on the stage was smiling so happily." Keli's tone suddenly became a little confused, "But before I went on stage, I met Sister Barbara, and she didn't seem very happy."

"Why?" Lin Qiu asked.

Ke Li explained: "Because the leader Qin was very busy and didn't come to see the performance, Sister Barbara was not very happy, but she looks very happy now!"

Lin Qiu thought: This is probably how idols manage their emotions.

Once on stage, her emotions no longer belong to herself, but to everyone, so after going on stage, Barbara can face everyone happily.

Soon, the bubbles floating in the sky gradually dissipated, and the cheers and applause of the people in the square gradually faded away. They provided a quiet environment for their idols and waited quietly for the arrival of the next link.
