Seeker of Teyvat

"Well, Lord Nikolaid, welcome to Mondstadt. I hope you can enjoy your stay here."

Then he looked at Albedo: "Is that so? I will send someone to find Kaeya, but with Kaeya's strength, nothing should happen."

"By the way, Albedo, have you finished your work? Are you back to report for your leave?"

"No, I came back to extend my vacation." Albedo didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose.

"Extend the vacation?" Jean was a little surprised. She looked at Albedo. "Although this is your personal matter, Albedo, this is the first time you have asked for such a long leave since you came to Mondstadt. Is there something important? Do you need the help of the Knights? If you need anything, please feel free to ask. We will all help."

Qin looked at Albedo with some worry in her eyes.

Don't get me wrong, there's no special emotion.

Qin treats everyone in the Knights Temperance equally.

The main reason is that Albedo’s behavior of asking for leave is really abnormal.

Imagine an excellent employee who has not asked for leave for many years.

He suddenly took a long vacation, and after coming back, instead of canceling it, he wanted to extend it.

Jean had to worry about what happened to Albedo.

Especially when a Nigrod who looked exactly like Albedo suddenly appeared.

It reminded Qin of some stories about alchemy going out of control.

Seeing the worried look on Captain Qin's face, Albedo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

However, he was still very touched by Qin's concern.

"Don't worry, Captain Qin, it's not a big deal. It's just that there are still experiments to be completed in Xumi, so we need to extend the vacation."

Albedo explained, then changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that Mika is back. How is he? How is Falja doing?"

Albedo was not worried that Jean would disagree with his extended vacation, so he changed the subject. In fact, the Knights of Favonius were indeed very free.

As the chief alchemist of the Knights of Favonius and captain of the investigation team, Albedo's attendance hours have basically never been normal.

If Albedo hadn't been away for too long and was afraid that everyone would worry, he would have taken the initiative to ask for leave, and Jean wouldn't even know that Albedo was going to Xumi.

"Mitya? Yes, he is back, and he has brought a letter from the Grand Master."

"The expedition team has reached its destination. The Grand Commander needs us to continue to mobilize resources and supplies. However, this is not important. The resource line has been opened, and there will be no problem with subsequent supplies."

"The only thing we need to worry about is that the Grand Master discovered the Fatui at their destination and met a Fatui executive officer named Captain."

Jean was distracted by Albedo and turned the topic back to the Grand Captain's expedition.

Speaking of the Fatui's Captain, Qin couldn't help but rub her brows.

The Fatui's executive officers are a serious problem for any country.

"Did a conflict break out?" Albedo asked with a frown.

Qin shook her head. "Mica said that Grand Commander Falga had a brief exchange with the Fatui executive officer [Captain], and there was no conflict between the two sides. However, Grand Commander Falga did want to compare himself with them."

Abedo:…

"Ha, the Fatui executive officer [Captain], his strength is not simple."

Wang Daoyi suddenly interrupted.

"Hmm? Daoyi, do you know him?" Albedo asked.

When he was in Red Sand, Albedo was usually called Wang Dao-the Lord of Red Sand.

After leaving Chisha, Albedo called him Daoyi.

Highlight politeness and kindness.

"Well, I once talked to the Fatui executive officer [Young Master] Tartaglia. According to Tartaglia's description, the Fatui executive officer [Captain] is a very powerful existence."

"Even though we are both Fatui executives, Young Master will be ignored in the eyes of the Captain."

"It is said that the Captain's true character will only be revealed on the battlefield."

Wang Daoyi told the news he heard from Tartaglia.

Then he looked at Jean with great curiosity: "Actually, I really want to know why the Knights of Favonius launched the Great Crusade?"

"To be able to meet the Captain of the Fatui, this distance is far beyond Mondstadt's jurisdiction."

Although expeditions are meant to cross extremely long distances,

But it may not be that easy for you to directly expedition into the Fatui [Captain]'s range of action.

Thinking of this,

Wang Daoyi recalled the scene he saw in the World Tree.

The silent warriors stand tall in the ice and snow like a Great Wall of Steel, fighting against the dangers and erosion from outside the world.

And Mond’s expedition...may also be related to this matter.

Chapter 467: Keli and Dolly meet for the first time

Starlight fell through the window of the group leader's office,

The little bits and pieces of light are a little hazy under the light,

The beautiful scene made Abedo want to take out his tools and draw a picture.

Unfortunately,

Faced with Wang Daoyi’s question,

Qin was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty of the stars.

The tips of her beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned,

After thinking for a while,

Qin still didn’t hide anything from Wang Daoyi,

As a hero who saved Mondstadt twice, Qin felt that Wang Daoyi could be trusted.

Of course, this is partly related to the fact that one of her pen pals often told her that Wang Daoyi was trustworthy.

"If you want to know about the Great Crusade, or rather, the unfinished expedition, then you must introduce our Grand Captain Falga to you."

Qin stood in front of the captain's desk and recalled the grand captain Falga in her memory.

……

The free and undisciplined North Wind Knight Falga had a huge influence on Qin's growth.

"Grand Commander, please take your work seriously and face Mondstadt's expectations of you."

"Little girl, you are my deputy, and it is only natural that you share the work with me. This way the leader can have the energy to do more important things."

He is a knight who conquers and creates legends, and she is a knight who protects peace and freedom.

Jean didn't hate Falga.

There may be something unique about Falga's style of doing things.

What Qin needs to accomplish is the right things that the Grand Leader has not accomplished.

Half a year ago, Falgar led the elite knights of the West Wind to leave Mondstadt again and embark on an expedition.

Expedition - This is an adventure very much in Grandmaster style.

"I'll leave the Knights to you. You've been the leader of the Knights for all these years anyway."

"Don't worry, leave it to me, Grand Commander."

Qin, standing at the window and watching the captain leave, thought to herself: When you come back, you will see a Mondstadt that is warmer, more prosperous and more peaceful.

……

Waking up from the memory, Qin shook his head slightly in his heart. The scene when the Grand Commander decided to launch the expedition was really unforgettable.

"As the grand leader of the Knights of the West Wind, he is undoubtedly the most powerful human being in Mondstadt, and he undoubtedly practices the philosophy of the Knights of the West Wind."

"And by launching the Great Crusade, he was making up for the regrets of the Knights of the West Wind."

"Yes, although many people don't know it, this great expedition is not the first expedition of our Knights of the West Wind. Really speaking, it should be the second."

"In history, the Knights of the West Wind once launched an expedition when dark monsters were ravaging the world. The purpose was to eliminate the source of a certain disaster."

"But... looking at the second expedition now, you should understand that the first expedition was not successful. Although it cannot be said to be a complete failure, it is still far from the answer that the Knights of Favonius want."

"Therefore, the Grand Master's expedition was originally intended to make up for the shortcomings of the Knights of the West Wind. On the other hand, it was also to prevent the disaster from recurring again."

Saying that, Qin showed a hint of embarrassment and shook his head slightly at Wang Daoyi:

"As for the target of the expedition, I only know that it is a place similar to a dangerous and forbidden ruin. I don't know what it is specifically."

Wang Dao nodded. Regardless of whether Qin knew what the so-called goal was, Wang Dao felt that he probably knew it, but he just felt that he couldn't say it casually.

No matter, at the target location of the Great Expedition, we can still meet the fools,

There has been no conflict between the two sides yet.

Then you can guess that the so-called target must not be a human being.

It can make the Knights and the Fools not conflict, and even partially cooperate,

Then there are only two things,

[Abyss] and unknown erosion from outside the world.

Only this kind of existence that is the enemy of all mankind can unite people with different positions and beliefs.

Of course, we are talking about the overall situation here, and the possibility of someone committing adultery cannot be ruled out.

Having finished talking about the long expedition,

Qin changed the topic and diverted everyone's attention back.

"Two and a half years ago, the grand master took almost 80% of the knights on an expedition. They even went to Mondstadt and were suppressed by the fools, which led to many bad things."

"Thanks to the help of His Excellency Wang Daoyi and Miss Xiangling, we were able to save Mondstadt and Tvarin."

Saying that, Qin showed a grateful smile to Wang Daoyi.

Wang Daoyi waved his hand: "These things have been in the past for a long time. You, the Knights, and even Diluc have thanked me several times. There is no need to mention it again."

Letters and gifts from the Knights on Xiangling’s birthday,

Chenxi Winery is still providing a steady stream of wine to Wanmintang.

When Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling got engaged, Mond's friends arrived.

All of them showed Mondstadt's gratitude to the two for helping to save Mondstadt.

The other party has already achieved this level, so there is really no need to think of oneself as a benefactor all the time.

"Your kindness to Mond will not be forgotten."

Qin said seriously first, and then returned to her normal expression, "Then you came to Mondstadt this time for tourism?"

"Ha, no, no, I just came back with Albedo, and I have something to do with the research over there in the desert."

High emotional intelligence: somewhat relevant.

Low EQ: Abedo is working for me.

"So that's it. I almost forgot that His Excellency Wang Daoyi and Abedo are also friends."

Qin said with a smile, as if she had just remembered that Wang Daoyi and Abedo's relationship was unusual.

"Ha, even though you said you were coming back with me, there is actually a purpose."

Abedo said with a smile,

"I may stay in this desert for a while, so I want to take Keli there for a while and let her see the desert scenery."

"Kelly is going too?"

Qin hesitated.

Although Abedo is Keli's guardian, Keli's identity is still the Spark Knight of the Knights of the West Wind.
