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

Qin: Where is my sister? I'm asking you, where is my sister?

Ying: I don’t know!

Qin: You were there and you didn’t know?!

Ying: Tick-tick-tick-tick…

Of course, if she was really like that, she wouldn't be chosen as acting leader.

Since last night, Jean has been dealing with all the official documents of Mondstadt, and she stayed up all night until this morning. Her work efficiency is second only to that of Secretary Yue Haiting from the neighboring country - that secretary has even been sleeping well recently.

And now, handling things in Mond Square is not going smoothly.

There were always people who wanted to get closer to the scene. After one group was persuaded to leave by the Knight of Favonius, another group came. Some people kept chasing the knights at the scene, asking about Barbara's whereabouts.

The Free City is the most carefree place in Teyvat. The people there are relatively unrestrained. No one has taken advantage of the chaos to carry out free shopping, which has already avoided causing any trouble to the Knights.

There was also a group of people discussing the statue of the God of Wind outside the scene.

"This historic statue has a destroyed face. What should we do?"

"It is said that this statue was carved according to Lord Barbatos's appearance when he first came. It cannot be reproduced now. Alas..."

A passing bard in green clothes said, "Why not make a replica based on my face? After all, bards represent freedom."

The people chatting collectively looked at him.

"Go away, even if you are a bard who symbolizes freedom, you cannot represent the God of Wind!"

In short, the situation near the square became more and more chaotic, and finally Eula played the role of the bad guy and drove away the onlookers with a scolding, thus freeing up space for the Knights to work.

After a while, the drone embedded in the statue of the god of wind was also carried down by the knights. Perhaps because the statue was too thick-skinned, the drone was completely destroyed.

While Captain Jean was commanding the knights, she did not forget to look in the direction where her sister was captured, with a solemn expression. Although she believed in the traveler and the great hero, she could not suppress this emotion.

Just then, Kaeya came over with an apologetic look on his face and said that Klee was missing.

Captain Qin's blood pressure rose again.

……

Lin Qiu carried Klee on his back and held Barbara in his arms, and flew towards Mondstadt using magic power.

At this time, Lin Qiu didn't need to be too stingy with his magic power. Only when flying at supersonic speed would the magic power of the fire element be consumed in large quantities. However, ordinary people could not withstand this speed, so now he just flew slowly with the two of them, with the minimum standard of not falling.

In this way, the consumption of magic power will be relatively less. In addition, even if the opponent attacks again, Lin Qiu does not have to worry too much. He only needs to transform. The magic power after the transformation is actually Oropas's magic power, which has nothing to do with how much he consumed before the transformation.

At first Barbara was somewhat pleased.

First, she experienced the classic scene of "prince saving princess", which satisfied the girl's heart. Then, she flew romantically in the sky, which made her feel happy.

"Can I hum a song?" she asked Lin Qiu for his opinion.

"Please go ahead." Lin Qiu said.

Then, the girl with twin ponytails hummed a light music that sounded relaxing and pleasant, as if they were flying in the air - although they were really flying in the air now.

"It sounds nice!" Kelly praised.

But as they got closer and closer to Mondstadt, Barbara suddenly realized something. The sound of her humming gradually became lower, and a slight sense of loss could be vaguely felt.

"What's wrong? Are you hurt?" Lin Qiu noticed this emotion and asked.

If Barbara was injured, he could take off his Sun Wheel Armor and use it to heal her, just like he restored Ganyu's health and healed Ying's butt.

"I'm fine." Barbara forced a smile and said, "I'm just a little tired because I was scared just now."

Barbara is a thoughtful girl. Unlike the innocent and carefree Kelly, she is in her adolescence, where she is full of fanciful thoughts and has many complicated thoughts in her mind.

On the way back to Mondstadt, Barbara noticed that there was no knight to investigate the path she had been taken...

A similar situation once occurred in Mondstadt.

One night, a child was lost near Mondstadt, and it was unclear whether he was attacked by a monster. Captain Jean personally held a torch and led the knights to search the wilderness outside the city.

It was eventually discovered that the child was just having a quarrel with his parents and was hiding in a remote area instead of leaving the city.

In short, Captain Jean took an ordinary Mondstadt resident so seriously, but when his sister was captured by monsters, the captain was unwilling to send out a knight.

This road is empty.

This made Barbara feel sad in spite of herself.

She didn't blame her sister, she just felt... sad.

This is the sadness that adolescent girls are prone to. Lin Qiu, as a rough, sunny and cheerful boy, naturally did not notice Barbara's mood. After all, his knowledge of the poor is not open 24 hours a day.

Because of this, Lin Qiu thought that Barbara was really tired, so he didn't take it too seriously and went straight back to the city-state with the somewhat sad Mond idol.

……

When Lin Qiu and Barbara flew over the city wall and landed back in the square, the people who were driven away by Eula gathered together again. When they saw the captured idol girl returned to the city intact, they cheered for the great hero.

If he didn't have two people on him, Lin Qiu would have wanted to perform a 360-degree turn in the air to respond to everyone's cheers, but considering Klee and Barbara on him, he chose a safe way to land.

But if this really happens, Klee should like this roller coaster-like thrill. If Lin Qiu acts as a plane and Klee drops bombs on it, she will be even happier.

Lin Qiu lowered the flames and slowly fell to the ground. The enthusiastic people wanted to get closer, but they had to stay away due to the heat wave. As for Barbara and Klee, with the help of Yin-Yang magic, they would not be affected by the heat wave.

Lin Qiu fell back to the ground and walked towards Captain Qin. Standing next to him was Kaeya, who had just come to report Klee's disappearance.

Lin Qiu, who appeared on the scene riding the Fire Hero, was like a human-shaped blood pressure-lowering drug. She immediately lowered Captain Jean's soaring blood pressure, and a sense of security arose in her heart.

When he arrived in front of Captain Qin, Lin Qiu first put down Barbara from his arms, and then put down Keli who was on his back.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Jean Gunhild." Lin Qiu introduced himself. "My name is Lin Qiu, and I am a close friend of your Honor Knights."

"I have heard about you in the letter from the Honorary Knight, great hero." Jean's face showed relief and gratitude. "On behalf of the knights of Mondstadt, I thank you for your help and for rescuing the missing citizens."

Citizens… Barbara thought.

After greeting Lin Qiu and expressing her gratitude, Qin turned her attention to Barbara.

"Barbara, are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?" Leader Qin asked with concern, "Do you need to go to the church for treatment?"

The twin-tailed Mond idol blinked, first slightly turned her eyes away, then turned her head slightly, and after making these movements, she replied in a low voice: "I, I'm fine, and I'm not injured. Fortunately, the great hero arrived in time..."

Chapter 147 Suspicious Tombstone (4k)

The face of the statue of the God of Wind was damaged, and the concert's main idol Barbara was also captured. She was just rescued and was still in shock. Under such circumstances, the concert could of course not continue, and Lin Qiu's plan also needed to be slightly changed.

I originally wanted to watch Barbara's concert before punishing the Doctor, but the Doctor came uninvited and not only interfered with the concert, but also tried to kidnap the Mond idol. So the plan to punish this slicer must be advanced. Damn him!

This is no longer an ordinary slice of the doctor's sword, it must be a heavy punch!

However, Lin Qiu was very curious. To be more precise, his curiosity was mixed with confusion: the knights patrolling the outskirts of Mondstadt were so strict, and there were so many mechanical drones, so how could they break into the city without any warning?

Even if the knights patrolling outside could not stop it, at least they could see it, report it to the city and be on guard.

But in fact, no report was received in the city. Both Captain Qin and other members of the Knights Templar were unprepared at the moment before the attack. Unless this group of mechanical bodies had already ambushed in the city, it would be impossible for them to do so.

It is not so easy to ambush Mondstadt in advance. Although most Mondstadt knights are slow to act, there are also smart people like Kaeya and Rosaria, as well as the night elf hero Diluk. It is difficult to transport the drone into the city in front of them.

Even if it was disassembled into parts and transported in, and then reassembled later, it would arouse suspicion. After all, Mond is a city of poetry and wine without any heavy industry. The sudden appearance of a large number of mechanical parts sounds very strange.

In short, they neither flew in from outside nor were they smuggled in in batches, so how did these drones get into Mondstadt?

Lin Qiu temporarily gave up thinking and exploring.

His current identity is more like a traveler who takes action when he sees injustice. Cleaning up the scene and handling the aftermath is the job of the Knights, so he handed Barbara over to Jean. After accepting the thanks from Captain Jean, Lin Qiu took Ganyu and Ying and temporarily left the scene.

He should first settle himself and his companions before going to help the Knights. After all, they haven’t even decided on a place to live yet - the first thing he did when he came to the city was to go to a concert.

As for the collection of clues, leave it to the Knights. When the Knights complete the collection of basic clues tomorrow, I will go to see the leader myself.

Suddenly, Lin Qiu realized that something was wrong. It was not something with the doctor, but something with his companions.

Where's Hu Tao? Where's that girl who loves to run around?

……

A remote area of ​​Mondstadt, the cemetery.

Walnut always felt that something was wrong. Of course, this premonition did not come from the mechanical attack in the square in the distance, but from her perception of her surroundings.

This cemetery seemed to be hiding some secret, which made Walnut feel something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong specifically, so she wandered around the cemetery.

Finally, Walnut stopped in front of a strange tombstone.

The tombstone looked very new, so new that it was very suspicious.

Because the tombstone is smooth and there is no word engraved on it. Even if it is a person without a name, at least it would say "Tomb of the Unknown". What's more, this is also the city cemetery of Mondstadt. Although it is not as expensive as Liyue, people are not buried there casually.

If it was an unknown person who died nearby, he would probably be buried in the village or town cemetery instead of being transported to the city for burial. Moreover, the stones of this cemetery are polished very beautifully.

Strange, so strange.

If it was the tomb of a person with a name, it would not be built so simply. Even if the people of Mond are very free, they would not do such an abstract thing.

Because a truly free person would let his ashes scatter with the wind, rather than building a nameless tombstone and occupying the land.

All I can say is, he's a weirdo.

Although the mystery of this tombstone can be resolved by the word "weirdo", Walnut still feels that there is a problem. This is the conclusion she came to after years of working in the funeral industry.

There is a problem, definitely a problem! It is so suspicious!

A bold idea came to her mind.

She wanted to dig up the soil underneath the tombstone to see what was hidden underneath - Walnut was a person who respected the deceased, but at this moment, she had a very clear premonition - what was buried under this cemetery was not the deceased, but some other "thing"!

But Master Hu is not an outlaw tomb robber. She just has this idea. However, having an idea and implementing it are two completely different things.

If it is implemented, it is a crime; if one has an idea but does not implement it, it cannot be called a crime, no matter how terrible, twisted and perverted the idea is.

So Walnut just intuitively determined that the grave was okay, and she wanted to dig it up, but her reason told her not to do so, and in the end she reluctantly left the tombstone.

She planned to bring Lin Qiu over tonight and use the almighty Yin-Yang magic to do a survey first, and then decide whether to dig up the place.

Walnut still believes in her intuition.

……

When returning to the street from the deserted cemetery, Kurumi realized that something seemed to have happened. The people of Mondstadt no longer seemed to be gathering in the square, but were discussing some incident.

"I didn't expect an attack to happen in Mondstadt. The head of Lord Barbatos' statue was smashed, and Miss Barbara was almost captured. How pitiful!"

"Thanks to the help of that great hero, Miss Barbara is safe and sound."

"It is said that the great hero seems to have some relationship with the Knight of Honor."

"No, no, no, I heard that he has some relationships with girls from all over the world. He even won over Inazuma's Thunder God..."

"Since there are such rumors about that great hero, I must pay more attention and teach my daughter well."

"To prevent her from being 'captured' by the great hero?"

"No, let her get close to the hero. If she succeeds in getting close to him, my daughter will also be a part of the legend in the future. What a great thing that would be."

Listening to the strange discussions of the Mondstadt residents, Walnut couldn't help but sigh at this wonderful freedom.

At the same time, she also collected key information: Mondstadt was attacked and Lin Qiu bravely rescued people.

Walnut ran quickly to the square, wanting to see what was going on and to find his companions.

……

After searching for most of the day, Hu Tao couldn't find any trace of Lin Qiu. The square was full of Knights of Favonius, and people were not allowed to get too close, so no information could be collected.

The onlookers outside the cordon had all their own stories, and there were all kinds of opinions, so Hu Tao couldn't find any definite information among them.

Finally she felt hungry and decided to go to the Deer Hunter Restaurant - she had heard Lin Qiu and Ying talking about this famous restaurant in the carriage.

From his memory, this place seemed to be not far from the entrance of the city, so Walnut asked as he walked and successfully arrived at the Deer Hunter Restaurant.

Unexpectedly, Linqiu Ganyu and the Traveler were already eating with big mouthfuls.

In front of Lin Qiu was a grilled steak made from wild boar meat hunted by hunters from Qingquan Town. It was marinated and carefully cooked to create a delicious dish that was crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside.

In front of Ganyu was a satisfying salad. Although the salad dressing and the combination of vegetables and fruits looked a bit bland, it was a very suitable delicacy for vegetarians - the same was true for people who didn't have much money to eat, as mentioned by a certain astrologer.

In front of the traveler was fried meat with carrots. This was recommended by Amber, the first friend she met when she first came to Mond. The secret sauce added deliciousness to the fried meat, and the carrots as vegetables could suppress the greasiness, making it a rare delicacy.

As for Paimon, no one knew where he went. However, Ying had gotten used to Paimon's occasional presence.

Looking at this scene, Hu Tao, who was starving from looking for someone, became very angry. She puffed out her puffy but still skinny chest and quickly approached Lin Qiu.
