Genshin Impact: Another Traveler of Teyvat

"Yes, you are all qualified Knights of Favonius. Take a seat first. Do you have a chance of winning with such limited combat power? It would be better to wait for more people before taking action." 'Qin' returned to her seat.

Lisa and Kaia looked at each other, waved their hands, and asked everyone to sit down again. Now is indeed not a good time to start a war.

Long after the Knights returned to the city, countless purple mirror-like objects floated in the air in all areas of Mond, showing the scene inside the Knights' headquarters, and countless Mond residents watched it all.

"Who are you? You are not Captain Qin at all." A Knight of Favonius with the Eye of God said angrily.

"Me? Of course I'm Captain Jean. A woman who dedicated her life to Mondstadt, and the final outcome is me."

"What final ending? Who are you?" Kaia asked loudly.

"Isn't it clear enough? I am: Jean Gunnhild. So I'm about 52 years old, right? Although I died at the age of 32."

"What nonsense are you talking about!!!"

Lisa stopped Kaia from questioning further.

"Since you are Qin, what is your purpose in coming here now?"

"Purpose? Hum... It's very simple, to kill the current Qin!"

"!!!!!!"

"Is it weird? Isn't it normal for my future self to want to kill my present self?"

"The future! Now! Are you..." Lisa seemed to have thought of something and entered the acting state, opening her mouth in surprise.

"If we kill her, there will be no more future tragedies. Tell me, where did Jean go?"

"Qin, tell me, why did you become like this?"

"Lisa, I love Mond, but I can't forgive Jean now. It would be best if she died."

"What happened? Please tell me."

"Well, although time is short, it's okay to tell you. But as a contract, after I'm done, tell me where Qin is?"

"Contract? Are you?" Lisa wanted to say something but was interrupted by Qin.

"The Knights of Favonius are the sword and shield that protect Mondstadt. I am proud to be born into the Gunnhild family, but a bloodline with a long history must come with a heavy burden.

My mother has been training me since I was young to be the successor of chivalry. I have to learn the physical form and etiquette that symbolize the chivalry, the history and poetry that forge the soul of the knight, the swordsmanship and physical fitness that arm the chivalry... all of them must be trained. Only in this way can we practice Gunhild's family motto: 'Eternally protect Mondstadt'. "

As long as I see Mond's future running through the streets with windmills in hand and laughing, I will have no regrets or complaints about the past years. Until..."

Countless people swallowed their saliva. What on earth happened to this reliable leader of the Qin Band? Why did he become like this?

"Until, everywhere I looked, there was only darkness and betrayal!"

The temperature in the entire Mond suddenly rose by more than ten degrees, and everyone gasped.

"Not long after, the words I heard most often in Mondstadt were:

"It would be great if we could immigrate to Liyue!"

"If I could be reborn in Liyue, my life would be worth it."

"Liyue has introduced a new policy. I really envy the people of Liyue."

"Being an ordinary person in Liyue is much better than being in Mondstadt!"

Liyue's...Liyue's...Liyue's...

These words hit me like the most vicious whip, but I believe that this was the spur from Barbatos, the god of wind.

I have carefully studied all of Liyue's new policies. Although I cannot copy them completely, there are a few points that are very suitable for Mondstadt's situation and should be feasible.

Mond has the second strongest medical resource in the continent of Teyvat: the church.

The people of Mondstadt donate countless Mora and property to the church every year. If it is just a minor illness like a bruise, can it be treated for free? Or just a small fee? After all, they are all the people of Barbatos, the god of wind, and the church is not short of money, so it shouldn't be a big problem, right?

Then the church refused, leaving no room for compromise.

Although this method failed, I did not lose hope and read again about Liyue's development over the years. I found that Liyue's changes began when a cement road was built. The durability of this cement road is shocking.

If a cement road could be built from Shimen border directly to Cape Lookout, would the people of Mondstadt have more convenience?

I took inventory of the available funds of the Knights of Favonius and discovered that the entire Knights of Favonius did not have much surplus funds.

There are also countless inexplicable expenditures and countless scattered accounts, which make it impossible to know where they went. The accountant said that the head of the group agreed to it, which made me very confused.

Finally, I got the most horrifying truth from a black market informant.

It was a bill called "Protection Fees for the Wind God Barbatos", which accounted for nearly 40% of the expenditure. What I find unbelievable is that the church actually collected this money?

We, the Knights of Favonius, are the sword and shield that protect Mondstadt! We actually have to pay the church?

After my repeated questioning, an old knight told me that this was medical expenses paid to the church. How do you think the Knights of Favonius get free treatment from the church?

I checked the bills carefully again and found that another 50% of the expenses were ultimately unaccounted for.

Likewise, from that informant, I got a bill called "Festival Knight Training Fee". The recipients were: various nobles.

The old knight told me some secrets.

[Ninety percent of the members of Mondstadt's Knights of Favonius were provided by nobles from all over the country.

Why couldn't Mr. Phillips be knighted a few years ago? It was because his Dawn Winery became too big and was ostracized by all the nobles, so he could never be a knight.

Even if one has the strength of the peak of the Cheng class, it is not accurate. It is not impossible, but inaccurate.

Ordinary people want to become knights? That's really difficult. Unless you have a big backer, otherwise, how do you think the Spark Knight came from?

We old knights can kill her with one arrow, but she has someone to support her. She must be given a knighthood and tied to Mondstadt's ship.

Noelle's strength is obvious to everyone. In fact, she should have been able to become a knight two years ago. Why has she not been promoted to a knight?

It was simply because her grandfather Nova was too close to the Grand Commander and they had to be suppressed.

You simply cannot break free of this shackle, just be a good acting leader and don't think too much. 】

I was looking at this place where only 10% of the tax revenue was left to supply the Knights of Favonius. The feeling was indescribable. "

The whole of Mondstadt fell silent. No one dared to speak, and the sound of swallowing could be heard everywhere.

"Later, I was labeled a 'traitor' by those nobles.

Because I found Xuanyuan Trading Company in Liyue and asked them to build this road that runs through the entire Mondstadt. After the construction is completed, part of the annual tax will be used to offset the payment in installments. This will reduce the pressure on the Knights, and Xuanyuan Trading Company has also given Mondstadt quite a lot of preferential policies.

The people of Mondstadt, bewitched by the nobles, began to boycott the Xuanyuan Trading Company in Liyue and obstructed the construction of the cement road, causing the road project to be suspended.

The clause "The Knights of Favonius must ensure that no one obstructs construction" could not be fulfilled, resulting in a breach of contract, causing the Knights of Favonius to bear an unimaginable amount of liquidated damages.

Although that gentleman later kindly forgave the debt of the Knights of Favonius, I still owed him a debt of favor that I could never repay.

In the following months, this road that ran through Mondstadt was brought up again by other nobles, who hired people to build it, and the Knights of Favonius were excluded.

It took ten years to build the road, which cost 30 times more than the original contract with Xuanyuan Trading Company. There was a toll booth every 5 kilometers, and people had to pay to go, which made countless Mondstadt people miserable.

The old road had been filled with obstacles such as boulders, animal traps, and caltrops by the nobles, and had become impassable for vehicles.

Those special vehicles using wind slimes will be shot and exploded by arrows flying out from unknown corners, sometimes carrying fire elements, and the diffusion reaction will burn the items in the vehicle.

It was useless for the Knights of Favonius to clear the place. In less than three days, the place was filled with obstacles again. Occasionally, they would catch some saboteurs, but they would soon let them go because it was not a big deal and under pressure from the nobles.

In ten years, I didn't change anything. The Knights of Favonius were still short of talent, and a large number of elite knights still belonged to the nobility and the church. Even if I found many qualified reserve knights, they were quickly recruited by the nobility and the church.

The completely infiltrated Knights Temperance did not have much funds to train real knights, and the Knights Temperance was deliberately forced to run around looking for cats and dogs and picking up garbage every day.

I was naive at that time and still had the sentiment of 'forever protecting Mondstadt'. Was it wrong to make the people of Mondstadt live a better life?

A retired knight of the Knights Templar, with one hand disabled, actually joined the treasure-stealing group and robbed Mondstadt's caravan. An old retired knight of the Knights Templar, suffering from a serious illness, was reduced to begging on the roadside, not to mention ordinary people.

Even that adult laughed at you, saying that although you had a hard life and it was difficult to endure, you were free! "

The people of Mondstadt all felt sad for the leader of the group. No one in Mondstadt could break this kind of resistance. The only person who could break the shackles was the wind god Barbatos. I'm afraid that what will happen next will be even more desperate!

Chapter 153: The Final End of the Woman Who Gave Everything for Mond

What happened in Mond quickly spread across the continent of Teyvat, causing heated discussions among people.

The leader of the group Qin who came back from the future is going to kill the current leader Qin. Apart from their similar appearance, they are completely different in other aspects.

At least, the real Captain Qin would not chop down the statue of Barbatos, the god of wind.

According to the trajectory in the game, the living standards of the seven countries are similar, just above or below a baseline, which does not make people feel excessive envy and jealousy. Under the flapping of someone's wings, it began to move towards another trajectory.

Liyue has experienced ten years of development and major reforms, and the implementation of various policies and welfare benefits have been maximized. In addition, with the promotion of game consoles and TV stations, people who come to Liyue for tourism are attracted by the publicity.

Liyue's reputation is getting better and better, and the immigration strategy is very strict. This has gradually led many people in the six countries to develop a similar way of thinking as "worshiping foreign things and fawning on foreigners". Mondstadt is too close to Liyue, and the impact it has received is even greater.

Mondstadt has always been governed by an atheist regime, which has led to a very strange phenomenon: Is it the nobility that is the main force? Or the church? Or is it the Knights of Favonius? Even the people of Mondstadt themselves cannot tell the difference.

The initial starting point was mainly the Knights of Favonius, but after thousands of years of evolution, countless black hands reached in. The Knights of Favonius had been divided up hundreds of years ago, and was almost in a state of existence in name only, becoming a tool for making money.

A common situation is: the Knights of Favonius caught a murderer. The church said, and they had to release him. The nobles said, and they still had to release him. They only had that much power to deal with ordinary criminals.

The Grand Master was just a compromise between the nobles and the church. He was also powerless to change the shackles on Mondstadt.

The appearance of Jean gave the Grand Master hope. A completely untainted Knight of Favonius, and most importantly, she was special.

Her mother is from the Gunhild family, one of the three major families in Mond, and her father is a cardinal of the church, which makes her position in the Knights of Favonius unshakable.

One can probably guess his plan. He used a strategy to bring these noble elite knights of the Knights of Favonius and several bishops of the church out on an expedition in order to pave the way for Captain Jean and let this little girl with true chivalry lead Mond forward.

The secret letter from the Grand Master in Lin Zixuan's safe told a lot of secrets. Looking back, I was probably tricked by him. Unfortunately, his plan was disrupted by me.

He was supposed to take over the Knights of Favonius step by step, slowly train his own trusted knights, and then take back the eroded rights and resources bit by bit.

Today, Captain Qin has seen the power of Liyue, the resources of Liyue, and the terror of Liyue. There is a huge gap between Liyue and Mondstadt. Then, she became anxious. Deep in her heart, she was shouting that this couldn't go on any longer.

It is true that he studied Liyue's new policies all night. It is also true that he discussed with the church whether a medical exemption system could be implemented. It is also true that he has contacted Ningguang several times to discuss road construction.

The desire to protect Mondstadt and make the people of Mondstadt live a better life is very beautiful. But... it is too idealistic. The knight's code did not teach her how to deal with those old foxes who really controlled Mondstadt. The ending that awaited her was already determined.

However, compared to the old foxes who often argue with the nobles and the church, this idealistic fool knight is easier to control. In order to make Mondstadt's leek field easier to harvest, it is normal for Liyue to come and set a fire to remove the weeds.

Inside the General Affairs Department, in Ningguang's temporary office, there was a photo of the group leader Qin on the table.

"Bang!" Ningguang pounded the table hard with her fist, and a "well" character appeared on her forehead.

"I'm so angry! You never let me rest easy. You asked me to wear this black dress, saying it doesn't have the charm I wanted. So it was meant for Captain Qin to wear?"

"Didn't he go there to discuss business? How come they started fighting again during the talks?" Shen He was quickly browsing through the information.

"Let's prepare for the aftermath! I wonder how much money it will cost to build such a large statue of the God of Wind."

"Come to think of it, this church is very similar to the various X cults that often appear in his books! There are quite a lot of such organizations appearing in Liyue recently. It seems to be called 'Emperor's Divine Cult'?"

"Well, those people were killed. Put a statue of the Emperor in the room and ask people to pay out all their property to get the blessing of the Rock King Emperor. Pay out half of your property and you can get a stone blessed by the Rock King Emperor.

This kind of organization that deceives the people will be killed without mercy. There is a special temple for praying for the emperor on Yujing Terrace, and the incense is just a little more expensive. "

"Indeed, when I watched their public trial, it was hilarious. The harm caused by this kind of organization described in his book is really too great.

They do not engage in production, deceive the people, collect huge amounts of materials, and use people's trust in gods to strengthen themselves.

Then they began to sweep up all kinds of land assets, and then developed armed groups to lend money to poor people. If the people couldn't pay back, they had to sign a contract to sell themselves, one thing after another. I suddenly felt how simple and kind I was. "

"I'm afraid that more hidden information will be exposed. Will the extremely weak Knights of Favonius disappear in the long river of history, or will they grow stronger again? The most important thing is whether the wind god Barbatos wants to change. It's a bit exciting!"

In Mondstadt.

Countless undercurrents were surging, all rushing to the vicinity of the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius. Captain Qin walked to the location where the second floor of the Knights of Favonius was pierced. With his hands crossed, he stood on top with his sword, waiting for someone to arrive.

The fully armed Diluk also rushed to the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius. Looking at the completely evil Jean, he was shocked. Is Jean really that strong?

"Sister, don't do wrong things again!" A pleasant voice came from below.

"Barbara? What a nostalgic name. The 'good' sister who pushed me into the abyss."

"Sister...?!!!" Barbara widened her eyes and looked at the 'Qin' in front of her in shock.

"Speaking of which, it's only because we two sisters are so naive. You were used by the church and brainwashed by the church, and you believed that everything the church did was right. As my most beloved sister, I naturally had no defenses against you.

You followed the church's instructions and added poison to the tea, cutting off all my capital for resistance. The Eye of God, martial arts, and thinking ability have all become a thing of the past. After I was tortured to death at Cape Oath, I was finally thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

Being so naive, you probably thought that it was just some ordinary sleeping pills, right?

If I had talked to you properly back then, maybe... Never mind, this is something that has not happened yet, it is not important to you. "

Barbara fell to the ground, staring blankly at her sister. Her trembling lips wanted to say something, but after seeing her sister's emotionless eyes, only two lines of tears remained.

"Since you are already dead, why are you here? What is this power?" Diluk asked loudly.

"Diluk...senior. He died earlier than me. He was so self-righteous that he spent all night protecting Mondstadt, but who would have thought that he would fall into the enemy's trap.
