I think...maybe we could steal the piano.
The killing machine spoke without hesitation, and the merciless iron-fisted man's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
He was unsure how much difference there was between Barbatos and the power of the many gods and demons he had devoured, and how much more he needed to grow before he could hope to catch up with Barbatos.
Count me in.
The Crimson Death Demon's figure swayed slightly; he was confident that he could steal the Sky Harp before the local inhabitants of this world could react.
Honkai Impact 3rd: Chapter 1187: The Dawn's Ghostly Lamp: I, a lady, stole the piano!
“Good idea, but we can’t go directly using our current identities.”
Dawn Lantern nodded. Barbatos's artifact... he was indeed somewhat interested.
"Actually, I've already found a good identity. I think after you've looked at the information we've gathered these past few days... you have a better understanding of the Fatui, right?"
The killing machine slowly revealed the target it planned to impersonate this time. Upon hearing this, the Red Death Demon showed a look of recollection: "The force under the command of the Ice God who is on par with Barbatos, the force that runs rampant in the Seven Kingdoms?"
They are indeed excellent scapegoats.
"Ah, that's right, and we've already obtained quite a bit of information about the Fools."
"Lamp Ring, read Teyvat-017 data and create a virtual image to cover my body."
"Dawn's Ghost Lantern" said calmly, and in the next instant, to outsiders, this corrupted Batman had transformed into a woman.
"Hmph, if you like being a lady, then go ahead and use it."
With a cold snort, Wu Min Tie Wan spoke without hesitation, showing no particular emotion whatsoever towards Dawn Lantern's words.
It's just borrowing a female identity, and besides... am I not a woman myself right now?
Night Owl changed his gender for his plan, and now his original gender is reversed from his past gender.
Hmph, Night Owl... I, Dawn Lantern, will surely repay this humiliation one day!
"According to our intelligence, the only Fatui enforcer in Mondstadt is a lady. It seems the rest of us will have to disguise ourselves as ordinary members of the Fatui."
The Crimson Death Demon didn't seem to care much about that; the Dark Knights' intelligence gathering didn't yet include information that the Prince was also one of the Fatui's Executors.
In the eyes of the Dark Knights, the young master is from another country and is an ally of Bennett within the same large multinational force.
Mondstadt seems to be in a tense state of mind due to the recent events and the previous storm dragon incident. Although the knights guarding the Sky Harp appear to be as calm as ever, their readiness to fight at any moment proves that they will definitely take action at the first sign of trouble.
Meanwhile, in the shadows, the Dawn Lantern and the Crimson Death Demon were moving forward silently.
"There are knights guarding the corner ahead, let's stop for now."
The voice of the killing machine rang out from the earpiece. In the mission to steal the Sky Harp, this Dark Knight, now holding the brain script, was in charge of intelligence reconnaissance.
Dawn Lantern and Red Death Demon remained in place in perfect unison, as the two of them were still in charge of this relatively normal infiltration and theft mission.
The merciless iron fist might suddenly malfunction, and as for the intelligence of the ravagers, it's best not to mention it due to the Doomsday virus.
They drowned in Mount Sumeru to visit the Grass King, and laughed wildly at fate to become maids. Now, the Dark Knights actually only have five members left in Mondstadt.
Just as Dawn Lantern and Red Death Demon heard the knights ahead patrolling other places, a figure suddenly swept past.
Ok?
who?
"It seems to be that honorary knight who briefly resisted the Stormterror?"
Compared to the Dawn Lantern that he hadn't noticed, the Red Death Demon, who possessed the Speed Force, saw it clearly.
"Why was that honor knight rushing out in such a hurry? Did something unexpected happen outside?"
Dawnlight paused slightly before speaking, while Crimson Death Demon remained calm: "I sensed a spatial fluctuation not far away just now. Perhaps that Honor Knight was investigating that fluctuation."
Facing this honorary knight who could fight against the Stormterror directly would probably be quite troublesome. Fortunately, that guy was lured away by an unknown entity.
At this moment, Luminous, wielding the Unsharp Sword, charged towards the Abyss Mage's position without hesitation. Meanwhile, Paimon, who was floating in the air and steadily keeping up with Luminous's speed, sounded somewhat flustered:
"No, this is bad! If the Sky Harp that Venti mentioned was necessary to help Stormterror is taken away by the Abyss Mage, things will be terrible. Luminous, quickly use your invincible elemental power to think of a solution!"
"I didn't expect the Abyss Mages to get involved. Did they know the Sky Harp could help Dvalin, so they planned to steal it ahead of time?"
Upon hearing Paimon's words, Luminous muttered to herself that due to the butterfly effects brought about by the Dark Knights, Luminous's experiences were somewhat different from the original plot.
However, this traveler from beyond the world eventually managed to establish a connection with Barbatos, the god of wind, and prepare to begin the mission to save Dvalin.
Your Highness, my mission... is complete!
Looking at the firefly that followed him, the Ice Abyss Mage was incredibly excited.
The plan to steal the Sky Harp was devised by the Abyss Prince. He wanted his subordinates to steal the Sky Harp so that he could lure his sister out of Mondstadt, a place he himself could not fully understand.
Meanwhile, completely unaware that the Sky Harp had already been taken by someone else, Dawn Lantern and Red Death Demon, who were still infiltrating, realized that they had to force their way through the final challenge after obtaining personnel supplies from the Killing Machine.
Without hesitation, he walked in through the door and, looking at the many Knights of Favonius standing before him, spoke with the Dawn Lanterns.
"Gentlemen, we'll gladly accept the Sky Harp. If you have any objections... Hmph, feel free to come and discuss it with us, the Fools."
Using the image of a woman, the Dawn Ghost Lamp moved with unhurried grace, as if taking a leisurely stroll.
"The ones who dared to steal Lord Barbatos's divine artifact are none other than you Fools!"
The Knight of Favonius, who was on guard duty, gripped his sword and winked at his comrades behind him. "This lady is the Executor of the Fools. Go to the Master's office and fetch Master Jean!"
“That’s right, we Fools must take the Sky Harp and Barbatos’s artifact.”
Do you really think a few of you can stop me, a lady?
As Dawnlight spoke, he quickly surveyed the scene. Where did those guys in Mondstadt hide the Sky Harp?
The Dawn Lantern, which it couldn't find for the time being, wondered if there might be some kind of mechanism, but if it wanted to search carefully, it would have to deal with the group of knights in front of it first.
"Remember this: the one who killed you is the eighth executive officer of the Fools, the lady!"
Raise your right hand and fire butterflies flutter around; if the Spectrum Department is willing, they're quite capable when it comes to special effects.
Each fire butterfly seemed to conceal an endless sea of stars, completely overestimating Teyvat's Dawn Lanterns' willingness to use their strongest power to face the Knights of Favonius's wrathful spirits.
After all, who knows if a reclusive expert might suddenly appear? You have to stay calm in this situation.
Honkai Impact 3rd: Chapter 1188: Barbara, you tricked me!
"Let me show you the might of the Fools' Enforcers."
The Fire Butterfly, with its hidden power amidst the stars, is probably unmatched in Teyvat under normal circumstances. Yet, the knights did not hesitate to raise their longswords in preparation for battle.
"Death awaits you!"
Determined to pin the blame on the lady, Dawn's Lantern ruthlessly maneuvered its Firefly toward the knights, just as the girl's voice rang out: "Hmph, do you think Mondstadt is without its share of trouble?"
Wait a minute, why did I say something like that?
Barbara paused slightly after speaking, and upon hearing that all-too-familiar voice, Dawn's Ghost Lamp felt a chill run down her spine.
First, Ying and the Abyss Mage caused a commotion, and then Dawn Lantern arrogantly tried to seize the Lyre of the West Wind. This series of events successfully attracted the attention of many people.
Without hesitation, Barbara rushed from the end of the corridor the next instant. Ever since she borrowed Fischl's power once, Barbara felt as if there were some marks on her body.
That was proof that it had once connected to the Pure Land of Dark Night. In fact... Barbara could request the mobilization of power from Fischl at any time through that trace.
"Help me, Miss Fischl!"
He silently recited a phrase in his heart, while on the other side of Mondstadt, Fischl, feeling Barbara's call, did not hesitate to respond.
Barbara herself knew that she must have encountered a rather troublesome problem to choose to borrow his power.
The next instant, in the eyes of the Dawn Lantern, Barbara's aura, which had been unremarkable and seemed to be suppressing its power, suddenly surged and exploded.
"Hmph, let me see which is more important to you: these knights or the Sky Harp!"
After the Lantern Ring bound a group of Favonius Knights with chains, the Dawn Lantern sent them to heaven without any hope. Seeing this, Barbara did not hesitate and instinctively chose to save the Favonius Knights.
"Ha, soft-hearted? Whether it's an act or a disguise, I, Lady, will accept the Sky Harp!"
Without hesitation, he shouted, and the next moment he exchanged glances with the Crimson Death Demon and the two began their search.
But soon, the reality before them made their faces turn somewhat grim.
The Sky Harp isn't here at all.
What? The intelligence is fake?
Killing machine, what's wrong with you?
Without hesitation, the two corrupted Batmen chose to retreat, knowing that there was no point in staying any longer.
"Our plan failed."
After deliberately lingering outside for quite some time, Dawnbringer and Red Death Demon returned to their second base in Mondstadt and stared at the killing machine before them with grim expressions.
"However, it wasn't all for naught. At least... Barbara exposed his weakness: a good person is often harder to deal with than a bad one."
Red Death Demon said something lightly, and upon hearing it, Merciless Iron Fist couldn't help but burst out laughing:
"Weaknesses? Hmph, I think you want to take off Batman's uniform."
Perhaps applying to the Jokers would be a better fit for you?
Take a good look at the announcement from Mondstadt.
Merciless Iron Fist picked up a photo of the Mondstadt bulletin board taken by the Killing Machine's miniature camera from the table and threw it out. The Red Death Knight's pupils shrank as he looked at the picture.
Realizing that things might not be as he had imagined, Dawn Lantern moved closer to Red Death to see what had happened.
"The Sky Harp has been stolen, and the thief... the whereabouts of the Fool's Enforcer, are unknown?"
Looking at the words before him, Dawn's Ghost Lamp's expression froze. A lady? Wasn't that the original owner of the image he had borrowed that day?
He was quite certain that he had not stolen Barbatos's artifact at all, and that the words on the bulletin board were pure nonsense.
"Damn it, Barbara must have pinned this on us, no, on the Fools, and secretly stole the Sky Harp herself."
Dawnlight muttered to itself, "The Sky Harp is a Barbatos artifact. Judging from the legends of Mondstadt, it seems to be able to help Barbatos as well. It's only natural that such a treasure would arouse Barbara's greed."
"I knew those guys who like to play dumb to fool others weren't good people."
The Crimson Death Demon spoke with certainty, saying that the mortal world was treated as his playground, and despite having the power to easily annihilate the merciless iron fist's attacks, he treated those attacks as a game to be played with at will.
And now he's pulled this smear campaign, which makes it very likely that he stole the Sky Harp. I can't say I admire this guy's moral character.
"Whether they are good people or not is not important. At least this operation has shown us the true colors of those powerful people, and the price we paid was basically negligible. Most of the blame was taken by that lady."
The Dawn Lantern quickly came to terms with it, but the Killing Machine poured cold water on the idea:
"Don't doubt the insight of the strong. Barbara may have figured out our true identities but just doesn't intend to reveal them directly."
"A dangerous woman might benefit more from having leverage over the Fatui than from making our Dark Knights famous in Mondstadt."
When the members of the Dark Knights realized that they might have been tricked by Barbara, the young master frowned slightly.
That woman caused me such a huge mess as soon as I arrived.
If it weren't for the fact that I'm a newly appointed executor of the Fatui and that Teyvat data sharing is slower, I probably would have already been recognized.
Recalling the Knights of Favonius's attitude—whether they were unaware of his identity or already knew it but tacitly refrained from bringing it up—the young master felt a sense of gravity.
Strolling through the streets of Mondstadt, Liyue, who was in no hurry to return to where she was planning to strategize for the Geo Archon and the Heart of God, decided to first check on the situation in Mondstadt.
If the reckless lady isn't in the right state, she'll probably have to take the task of retrieving the Heart of Barbatos herself.
Come to think of it, I hadn't paid any attention to the intelligence in Mondstadt before. Barbatos's disguised identity... Have they found the lady and the others?
The young master fell into deep thought.
It's not a good time to directly contact the Fools. It would be better to let this foreign friend infiltrate the Knights of Favonius as a hidden pawn.
"Ok?"
Just then, the young master suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance, where he seemed to sense the aura of a powerful figure who had suddenly appeared and was worthy of a fight.
In a secluded alley in Mondstadt, forcibly suppressing the urge to vomit, Ain looked up at the Mondstadt that resembled a knight's tale and muttered to herself, "This... is this the stage where the powerful clash, Teyvat?"
Honkai Impact 3rd: Chapter 1189: Lady: Who did D'Artagnan bring back?
"This city seems to have the aura left behind by a powerful figure, but that aura was fleeting and quickly dissipated."
The source of the dangerous aura that the young master sensed was not Ai-in. Beside the anti-entropy doctor, Raiden Mei gripped the weapon crafted by Velvet in her hand, subconsciously uttered a word, and then looked around warily.
To prevent instability issues with the temporary Teyvat Gate, the first batch of pioneers consisted of only three people.
These three individuals were each sent by one of the three major organizations: Destiny, Anti-Entropy, and World Serpent. Raiden Mei, on behalf of World Serpent, came to explore this stage.
