What bad intentions could the original dragon have?

The doll that was overflowing with fire elemental power would definitely explode if it was hit, and if Zhong Ling didn't do anything at the moment when such a strong fire elemental power burst out... she would feel a little bit at a loss.

Anyway, there is no taboo for her to take action.

However, having just used the power of the 'Eye of Water God', she naturally could no longer use other elemental powers.

It is well known that humans cannot possess two 'Eyes of God', nor can they use two elemental powers at the same time.

But... the people of Mondstadt naturally don't know much about Liyue, so they can get away with it by coming up with some things that are unique to Liyue, right?

As long as she has this, she can cause more terrible harm to the hillbillies without exposing herself too much.

Zhong Ling reached into her sleeve and took out a white and blue talisman paper.

Ying couldn't understand the words on the talisman paper, but she could feel the surging elemental power in it.

"【Purple Sky Spirit Talisman·Yi Mu Zheng Lei Curse】, quick!" Zhong Ling uttered the name of the spell softly.

With the last "hiss", the talisman on her fingertips turned into a pale thunder, shooting out from her fingertips, like a sharp spear piercing through the doll thrown by Amber.

In an instant, the surging thunder element and fire element reacted violently, and the even more violent roar set off a wave of sound.

"Roar!!!" The Hillicruc thug let out a loud roar, and then the 'overload' reaction of the resonance of the thunder and fire elements blew the strong Hillicruc thug several meters away, and several Hillicrucians beside it were directly blown to pieces.

"Bang!" With a dull crash, the Hilliard Thug fell to the ground.

Then there was another strange sound, and a strong arm landed several meters away from the hill thug.

The arm of the Hilliard thug was actually blown off in the "overload reaction" just now!

The Hilliard thug fell to the ground, roaring in pain. Large amounts of blood and black smoke oozed out from the wounds on its body. It was obvious that it was not going to survive.

At this moment, arrows with lightning and ice elements attacked again.

Seeing that both partners had demonstrated impressive strength, Ying was not willing to be outdone.

He reversed his hand and swung the sword.

The green wind blade accurately shot down the two incoming arrows.

A.10 Amber and the Wings of Wind

"Thank you very much for your help, Miss Zhong Ling." After much hardship, they finally eliminated all the hillocks in the camp. "After eliminating so many hillocks, the road will be much smoother next time."

"I remember that Mond's defense shouldn't be so weak." Zhong Ling asked with some confusion.

Even if the [God of Wind] has been gone from this world for a thousand years, Mondstadt should not be so weak.

"This is a long story." Amber touched her hair. "I'll talk to you about this after you two enter the city."

"But, speaking of which, why is Miss Zhong Ling able to use so many kinds of elemental powers?"

"This?" Zhong Ling smiled and took out a stack of talisman paper from his sleeve. "Actually, that's not my own power."

"My brother bought it for me because he was worried that I might get into danger when I go out."

"These talismans contain the powers of many Liyue's extraordinary people. If we use special methods, we can release the powers."

"There are such magical things?" Amber's eyes widened. "Liyue is really magical..."

"So, as long as I combine my own strength with these talismans, I can also gain some combat power." Zhong Ling took the talismans back. "It's just a little expensive."

"One like this costs about 200,000 Mora."

In fact, these talismans were just written by Zhong Ling himself. He sealed a part of his power into the talisman paper so that he could pretend to be weak.

"Two hundred thousand?!"

"Two hundred thousand!" Paimon floated in front of Zhong Ling and looked into her sleeve.

But nothing could be seen. It was as if there was a sea of ​​stars in Zhong Ling's sleeves. Looking inside, only endless starlight and the deep starry sky could be seen.

"What does 200,000 Mora mean? It sounds like it's very expensive." Ying thought about the purchasing power of 200,000 Mora.

----

With Amber's guidance, they easily passed the inspection of the knights guarding the city.

"It's finally here..." Ying touched her neck. Because there was a fake 'Eye of the Wind God' on her scarf, Ying felt like she was being strangled and she could hardly breathe.

Under normal circumstances, it would be fine, but walking such a long distance is really tiring.

"The sun is about to set." Looking at the evening sky, Paimon also felt his feet were sore.

"Hehe..." Amber, who usually runs around, chuckled at the two tired people, and then looked at Zhong Ling who didn't seem to show any sign of fatigue.

"As children of a large family, you must maintain your manners when you are outside." Zhong Ling noticed Amber's gaze and said softly.

What this means is that she is also very tired, but she cannot show it as directly as Ying, and must maintain her demeanor.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Amber nodded to show that she understood. After all, there are nobles in Mondstadt as well.

However, Amber felt that aristocrats themselves should not have a condescending attitude, and that good manners did not need to be deliberately demonstrated.

Let’s not talk about other countries for now, this is Mondstadt, a free country.

Like Miss Zhong Ling, she can show her extraordinary cultivation in every frown and smile.

"Allow me to formally introduce you to this pastoral city of wind and dandelions, the capital of freedom. Travelers who are protected by the Knights of Favonius, welcome to Mondstadt." Amber introduced the city to the three people as usual, but compared to her usual routine, her introduction today was much more emotional than before.

"Great!" Paimon raised his hands and cheered. "But... everyone in the city seems to be in a bad mood."

When people passing by heard Paimon's cheers, they glanced at her briefly and then continued to do their own things listlessly.

"Because the whole city is worried about the Wind Dragon recently." Amber said with some worry. "Ah, let's not talk too much. I will take you to see Captain Qin first. After that, I also have some gifts for you."

"A gift!" Paimon looked at Amber with shining eyes. "Is it delicious?"

"Haha, it seems that little Paimon is really hungry. But gifts and treating you to a meal are two different things. After meeting Captain Jean, I will take you to the Deer Hunter restaurant." Amber, who has a cheerful personality, can easily gain the favor of others.

"Captain Qin? Is he the new generation leader of the Knights of Favonius?" Zhong Ling grasped the key point in Amber's words.

"No, no." Amber waved her hand quickly. "Captain Jean is actually our 'acting captain' because the captain is not in Mondstadt right now."

"As for the title of Captain Qin, it is actually our nickname for Qin. If it were Qin herself, she would tell us very seriously, 'I am only the acting captain, and you cannot omit the word 'acting'.'" Amber said, imitating the tone of Captain Qin she was talking about.

"Wow, sounds like a very serious person..." Paimon said fearfully.

"No, Qin is a very nice person. You'll know when you meet her." Amber said quickly to avoid giving people a stereotyped impression of Qin.

"So that's how it is." Zhong Ling nodded in understanding. 'It seems that the reason why Mondstadt's defense is so weak is that the current captain is not in Mondstadt.'

"Eh? I had it with me?" Amber slapped her forehead before she took two steps. "I suddenly realized that I had one of the gifts I mentioned earlier with me."

After saying that, the 'Eye of God' on Amber's waist emitted a faint glow, and then a pair of things that looked like wings appeared in her hands.

"Ding ding ding~'Wings of Wind'!" Amber made a proud sound.

However...Ying just looked at the wings in Amber's hands, and a question mark almost popped up in her head.

"'Wind Wings'... I got a pair from a friend the last time I came to Mondstadt." Zhong Ling looked at the 'Wind Wings' in Amber's hand. "It doesn't look like an ordinary 'Wind Wings'."

"Hehe..." Amber scratched her hair in embarrassment. "Ms. Zhong Ling is really knowledgeable. This pair of 'Wind Wings' was made by me personally... But don't worry, the quality is absolutely guaranteed."

"Well, it can be seen that Miss Amber put a lot of effort into making it." Zhong Ling looked at Ying. "I already have a pair of 'Wind Wings', Miss Amber, please give it to Ying."

"Huh? How can this be possible?" Amber quickly waved her hands.

"It's nothing... If I come to Mondstadt and use the 'Wind Wings' made by Miss Amber, my friend will probably be jealous if he sees it, right?"

"Well... that makes sense..." Amber pursed her lips. "Then... let me think about Miss Zhong Ling's thank-you gift."

"No need. I still have a lot to trouble Miss Amber with, such as finding a hotel for us, recommending restaurants, and other things."

"Oh, leave these to me." Amber patted his chest. "Then, Miss Ying, please try the performance of the 'Wind Wings'. Although it is easy to operate, there are still some things you need to pay attention to."

A.11 Mond

Standing on a high place, Zhong Ling stared at Ying who was gliding downwards using the "Wings of Wind".

Zhong Ling said that she had the "Wings of Wind given by a friend", but in fact she did not.

To Zhong Ling, the ‘Wings of Wind’ were not something that was needed.

It doesn’t matter even if Zhong Ling wants to walk in the world as a mortal.

As her 'Eye of God' represents water attribute, she has the ability to control water mist to fly, so she does not need a prop like 'Wings of Wind' for gliding.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Zhong Ling felt a huge force of wind element coming towards Mondstadt. "Tvarin?"

Looking into the distant sky, an indigo figure emerges in the sky.

"Ah... hide for a while?" Seeing Tevarin rushing towards him at high speed, Zhong Ling looked around and then his eyes fell on one of the most important sights in Mondstadt.

'Giant statue of the god of wind'

"Forget it, just find a place to hide."

Anyway, nothing serious will happen. If Tevarin really annoys me, I can just beat him down. It's not a difficult task.

Thinking of this, Zhong Ling casually hid under the sunshade pavilion of Fengshen Square.

Just as Zhong Ling was slowly "hiding", the indigo figure had already arrived above Mondstadt.

In an instant, the dim sky was covered by dark clouds, and the unusual wind raised dust.

Residents of the city fled, trying to return to their homes to avoid the storm.

"Roar!!!"

The dragon that controlled the storm let out a roar that shook the earth.

The dragon's roar was mixed with anger and sadness.

A foul black tornado fell from the sky, tearing at the vegetation in Mondstadt.

However, it seemed like there was just a lot of thunder but little rain. The huge whirlwind had difficulty even rolling up some vegetation.

Perhaps in the eyes of some people, this situation is regarded as the weakness of the [Wind Dragon].

However, Zhong Ling, who had had a similar experience with Tevarin, understood very well how Tevarin felt at this moment.

It's not that it is weak, but that it still retains its attachment to Mondstadt. Even when it is torn apart by that dark will, the storm it releases does not contain any aggression.

It released the vast storm with great momentum, but was careful to avoid really harming the lives it once protected.

Otherwise, such terrible wind elemental force is enough to tear into pieces anyone and anything caught in the storm.

"Hmm? Is that Miss Ying and little Paimon?" Zhong Ling was still waiting for the appearance of [God of Wind] Barbatos, but she suddenly saw a golden-white figure being swept up by a dirty black tornado.

Imitating the movements of humans looking into the distance, Zhong Ling used her hands to set up a tent on her brows.

At the end of Ying's scarf, a small white creature was pulling at it hard to prevent itself from being blown away.

And Ying... was pulling at her scarf and struggling frantically as if she was being strangled.

"It seems that Miss Ying's luck is not very good." Zhong Ling did not seem to be in a gloating mood. "Huh? Here it comes."

At this moment, Zhong Ling suddenly saw a hint of green light appearing around Ying. The feathers formed by the wind element strengthened the "wings of wind" behind her and pulled her out of the tornado.

"Sure enough, this guy Barbatos showed up." Zhong Ling was very familiar with Barbatos's power.

Although it was faint and hidden, it could not escape Zhong Ling's perception.

However, she could sense Barbatos' power, but she couldn't track his location.

In this case, the factors for what she came to Mond to solve have been gathered.

Sensing that Barbatos had indeed appeared, Zhong Ling felt relieved.

However, before she exited the state of perception, she discovered that not far away on both sides of her, there were two other owners of the "Eye of God" who were spying on her.

"One fire type and one ice type?" "It's enough to know who they are. There's no need to go and cause trouble, but we must be prepared for everything.

Relying on his own strength and not bothering to think about the consequences of various situations, Zhong Ling didn't want to experience it a second time.

"However, since that little bastard Barbatos has shown up, that means he has already started to resolve the crisis brought by Tevarin, right?" Zhong Ling looked at the glow in the sky.

Although Zhong Ling and Barbatos are old friends, sometimes she still disagrees with some of Barbatos's ideas.

Mondstadt is different from other kingdoms like Liyue and Inazuma.

As early as the period of the Demon-God War, Liyue was one of the richest places on the continent of Teyvat, so many demons and gods rose up and competed for supremacy in Liyue.

This is why the final winner of Liyue, [God of Rock] Morax, is the strongest among the original [Seven Rulers of the World].
