Lin Ye was reading the masterpiece "Travel Guide to Teyvat" by Klee's mother, Ms. Alice.
Klee's mother traveled to many countries and wrote "A Travel Guide to Teyvat". This book is more like Alice's diary and some experimental ideas than a travel guide.
Zhongli had received this magical lady before, and he was mainly worried that Alice's wild imagination and terrible execution might accidentally blow up Liyue. This was no joke.
Lin Ye vaguely remembered that Alice had the power to travel through many alien worlds. The concept of "idol", which was completely new and unfamiliar to the continent of Teyvat, was also spread by Alice. Lin Ye suspected that Alice had been to a world similar to the civilization of his previous life.
Lin Ye thought that if he could talk to Alice, perhaps he could learn the truth about his time travel.
After all, the identity of an Adventer is rare but not unique.
While reading, time passes quickly. When the sun sets in the west, the light of the setting sun falls on the book that Lin Ye is reading. Only then does Lin Ye realize that a long time has passed.
Lin Ye turned his head and was about to ask Shen He if she was hungry, but he saw Shen He was concentrating and reading quietly.
When Shen He is quietly reading, he exudes a softer and more intellectual air than usual.
In the past, Master Liuyun Jiefeng had tried to bring Shen He some novels to read, but Shen He's heart was sealed with a red rope at that time and he had no interest in them. The joys, sorrows, anger and happiness recorded in the novels could not resonate with Shen He.
But now, Shen He can read into the book and try to understand the emotions of the characters.
Lin Ye smiled silently. He quite liked this kind of life.
Chapter 218 Don't Come Over Here (Please Subscribe)
After spending an afternoon in the library, Lisa found some historical records about Eberhard and Protate. She and Lin Ye found Kaia and went to the dungeon together. Shen He followed, after all, she was the one who made the greatest contribution to capturing Protate.
The Knights of Favonius also thought about awarding Shen He a prize, but He did not care about worldly reputation, so Tolinye declined.
The interrogation room and the confinement room are mainly where the Knights of Favonius hold criminals. The former is used to hold petty thieves, while the latter is almost becoming Klee's exclusive room.
As for the dungeons under the Knights Templar, the prisoners there were of a more serious nature, such as murder, arson, and power-grabbing. Even the boss was the gatekeeper.
Some people reformed themselves after coming out, while others gained enlightenment in Longchang, looked for new tracks, developed new ways of playing, and then... continued to stay in jail.
Protate was held in solitary confinement, with his legs shackled and his hands handcuffed. He could only guarantee the most basic necessities of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and there were knights guarding him 24 hours a day.
Kaia nodded to the young knight on guard and signaled him to leave first.
Lisa frowned slightly, feeling uncomfortable with the dirty and smelly smell of the dungeon.
Although during my time at Xumi, I occasionally worked with colleagues for days and nights, and there was a bad smell in the laboratory, I was so focused at the time that I didn't think much of it.
But now, as an outsider, Lisa's attitude is naturally different when she looks at an environment that is worse than the laboratory.
Protate was sitting in a chair, dozing off. When he heard some noise, he half-closed his eyes and looked to see who it was.
Young cavalry captain.
A woman who looks very knowledgeable, fellow scholar Protate's affection for Lisa has increased.
A young man, the one who stopped him at West Wind Cathedral!
White-haired woman...
Protate subconsciously wanted to touch his back, but he was trapped in the handcuffs and couldn't succeed. However, he still felt a dull pain in his back.
Such a terrifying woman.
"Protate, about a thousand years ago, was the chief court mage of the Lawrence family. He educated two generations of Lawrence family heads and was given the surname of the Lawrence family..."
"... and later he and most of the Lawrence family were driven out." Lisa recounted Protate's life trajectory.
"It seems that Mondstadt has not forgotten me." Protate's skin was shriveled, his skull was protruding, his eye sockets were sunken, and his eyes were an inhuman purple. After hearing Lisa's words, the corners of his mouth curled up.
When Lin Ye saw Protate's appearance, he thought he looked very much like Zouken Matou, a bedbug mummy that had lived for hundreds of years.
"History should not be forgotten, especially a dark period. The shining great heroes should be remembered by us, the later generations, and the evil people who have committed many evil deeds should also be recorded..."
"Take this as a lesson and as a warning. Bad people do bad things. No matter whether they have a good ending or are punished, if they are forgotten after death, their souls will be forgiven after several hundred years because their crimes are forgotten and no one knows about them."
"Is this approach feasible?" Lisa responded with a smile, "I don't think even the merciful and forgiving God of Wind would agree with it."
Upon hearing this, Protate retorted with disdain.
"History is written by the victors. Decarabian was the ruler of this land in the previous generation. How was he regarded in Mondstadt? A tyrant! A lonely king in a high tower! If Mondstadt of the Wind God is overthrown, what kind of vanity will the Wind God gain?"
"So, old man, you haven't given up your delusion of overthrowing the order of the God of Wind?" Kaia said with a smile.
Protate snorted.
Lin Ye stepped forward.
"That tentacle, oh no, the one who is good at using a spear, your accomplice, who is she?"
"Why should I tell you?"
"If I say that I can reduce your sentence, you will definitely not believe it. Besides, you tried to overthrow the order of Mondstadt and steal Mondstadt's treasure [Sky]. This crime is enough for death by shooting. Oh, I mean stabbing you to death with a spear." Lin Ye said casually.
"Why do I feel like you are the one from Mondstadt, and I am an outsider?" Kaia couldn't help but complain when he saw Lin Ye acting like the master.
"It doesn't matter." Lin Ye smiled.
"If you don't tell me, we'll just torture you." Lin Ye said again.
"Haha, before you came, didn't this group of people who called themselves knights torture me?" Protate said sarcastically.
“Lin Ye, look at this guy, he looks like a ghost, it’s hard to say whether you can make him feel pain.” Kaiya spread his hands.
"Maybe I have a solution."
As Lin Ye spoke, he stretched out his hand, and black flames emerged from his palm.
At the same time, Lin Ye tried to mobilize the power of [Boundary] in his body and merge it into the black fire without entering the ghost state.
The appearance of the black fire did not change at all, but Lin Ye knew that the black fire was tainted with a breath of death.
Protat in the cell couldn't help but shiver. He widened his eyes and stared at the black fire in Lin Ye's hand.
When he was in the Cathedral of West Wind, Protate had not yet felt such a strong fear of the black fire in the forest.
Lin Ye saw Protat's reaction and thought he was right.
Albedo told Lin Ye that Protate used the blood of the magic dragon Ursa in exchange for "eternal life", which was actually forcibly restraining the soul. The flesh would wither and rot, and the soul would gradually rot in this body.
In Liyue's words, it is equivalent to a zombie, but it is far worse than the zombie loli Qiqi.
What kind of treatment did Qiqi get? The immortals infused her with harmless and beneficial immortal power, while Proteus drank the poisonous blood of the evil dragon, so the effect would be greatly reduced.
Zombies are "dead things" that are forced to stay in the human world.
Liyue can also take care of Mondstadt's "dead things". After all, Liyue's [border] is part of the continent of Teyvat, and Mondstadt is also in the continent of Teyvat. It is not surprising that the [border] power used by Lin Ye makes Protate feel fear.
When they were at the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, Lin Ye entered a ghostly state, and when he used the black fire, he also vaguely sensed the fear of the tentacle girl.
It was the first time that Kaeya and Lisa saw Lin Ye’s Black Fire, and they both thought that Lin Ye was the Ice God’s Eye.
"The black flames, um, have an unsettling aura. Lin Ye, you are actually the villain, right? Just like what is often written in stories, the people around you suddenly become the final enemies of the protagonists." Lisa said half-jokingly.
Lin Ye shrugged, looked at Protat and gave him a harmless smile.
"Kaiya, please open the door. It's getting dark and cold at night. I want to bring warmth to this lonely old man."
Hearing this, Kaiya covered his forehead, shook his head, took out the key and opened the door.
Protete's face was grim. He stood up and shrank back. He shouted hoarsely, "Don't come over here! Stay away from me!"
Protate's biggest goal is immortality. He has a premonition that if he is burned by this fire without resistance, he will really die!
This is something Protet would never allow.
As Protate retreated to the corner, shivering and with nowhere to go, the flickering flames burned before his eyes.
"I will tell you everything I know!"
Lin Ye clenched his palms and cut off the black fire.
"Then tell me quickly."
Afterwards, Protate confessed his plan.
Steal the Skyharp in order to awaken Tevarin.
Lin Ye was puzzled and woke up Tevarin. Wasn't he afraid that Tevarin would hit him back?
Protate witnessed the sky battle five hundred years ago, and there is still a sense of irony in his words. Tevarin, who was bitten by the poisonous dragon Durin, would only become violent after waking up, causing Mondstadt to fall into dragon disaster.
"Aren't you afraid of attracting Wen and Fengshen by doing this?" Lin Ye frowned.
This involves Protate's next plan.
The Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain gains the power of Durin's heart blood and the Frost Nail.
Let Mondstadt return to the state of being engulfed by blizzards for thousands of years, and let the land of Mondstadt be covered with poisonous blood.
Even if the God of Wind returned, he would need to devote most of his strength to deal with this situation, and it would not be resolved in a short time.
After Lin Ye and others heard it, Kaiya questioned.
"Suppose your plan succeeds, but the Wind God is still here, His power is still not something that mortals can resist."
Protate was silent for a while and then named a person.
"[PhD]."
"I have worked with him before, and he will help me. This man has the power to kill the dragon Ursa, and he may be able to kill the God of Wind."
[Doctor] is no stranger to Kaeya and Lisa. Three years ago, [Doctor] caused a lot of trouble in Mondstadt.
A girl named Cole was injected with the residue of the demon. The Fatui attempted to summon her demon, but fortunately they were stopped.
"Him again? What demon is he going to summon this time? Could it be the Lone King of the High Tower?" Kaia joked, but there was no smile on his face.
"Not necessarily." Lin Ye said. He thought of the tentacle girl. The aura on his body was that of the demon god Mtubad. Quan Tai had also had his aura before.
"Oh?" Kaia was surprised.
"I think it might be a combination of Diekarapian and another demon god." Lin Ye pondered.
Kaia:??
Isn't the difficulty increased?

"Hey, Lin Ye, are you kidding me?"
"It's just a guess on my part."
"Is there any basis for this?"
"Yes, but let's talk about it after we get out. After all, his interrogation is not over yet." Lin Ye said, his eyes falling on Protat again.
"Who is your accomplice, the one who went to the snow mountain with you? Do you have other accomplices? " Black flames appeared in Lin Ye's palms again and waved in front of Protat.
"Eberhart! Eberhart!! "Protate said hurriedly.
"It's him... No, the one I saw on the snowy mountain was a woman. Could it be that the Eberhardt in history was a girl?" Lin Ye was surprised.
"Ah, he only used the body of one of his maids, he has two bodies!" said Protate.
"What about the other one?"
"…I don't know. I don't know where he is hiding. Eberhart's situation is special. The potion that was made can only make one person immortal."
"Eberhard needed my wisdom and couldn't kill me, so he finally found a compromise. Both of their souls were carried in my body."
"Why not Eberhardt's body? From what you said, Eberhardt holds the initiative. If that's the case, he shouldn't abandon his body."
"Because I did things very cleanly, my crime will lead to exile. But Eberhart is different. He rebelled against that gladiator slave and the wind god, and that is a capital crime!"
"...Since they shared the same body, why was Eberhard able to put his soul into the maid's body?"
"This is because I was able to obtain the complete body of the demon dragon Ursa with the help of [Doctor], and within a few years, I made a breakthrough in my research!"
"The plague god Eberhart can finally come out of this old man's body!"
When Protator said this, he was both proud of his research and grateful for having gotten rid of Eberhardt.
"After I failed to steal the Sky Harp, Eberhard chose to leave my body and enter the body of my maid who I had kept for a long time. After that, we divided the work. I went to find Durin's Heart Blood, and he went to find the Frost Sky Nail."
After listening to this, Lin Ye fell into deep thought.
If he was Eberhardt, he would put his soul into another person's body either to conceal his tracks or to have a backup plan.
