The Night Hero was killed and died tragically in a horse manure pond. Kaia made a big fuss for a long time, and then Kaia was also assassinated and died with you.

Your exact information has actually been on the table of the nobles and church leaders for a long time, but they have just given you some face and let you play around."

"Kaia and I were both killed? Who killed us?"

"Haven't you thought about it yet? Your Dawn Winery's business will account for nearly 50% of Mondstadt's tax revenue in the future.

There are not many knights in the family. A huge piece of fat meat that is so rich, do you think no one will be jealous? A feast of dividing up the Dawn Winery that I cannot stop. Even the man you hid was hanged. "

"!!! This...didn't the Knights of Favonius catch the criminal?"

"Yes! The criminals were ronin who came to Mondstadt to rob. They didn't even have the Eye of God. They killed hundreds of people in your Dawn Winery with their swords, and no one escaped.

The noble knights of the Knights of Favonius pointed all the evidence to him. I sent six trusted knights to investigate, and they all disappeared. "

"Hahahahahaha, this is ridiculous, this is ridiculous, what on earth am I protecting?" Diluk gradually showed signs of turning evil. The existence of Cripps is a secret. Even Jean didn't know it, and now that it's been told, he probably believes it halfway.

"During these ten years. In the first year, I conducted numerous investigations, but the clues would be cut off at the most critical moment. I finally realized that even the knights loyal to the Knights of Favonius were spies of some people.

I remembered what the lord in Liyue did, and asked the Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, for a statue of the God of Wind with his divine power.

I failed. Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, told me that Mondstadt is a free country and that divine power cannot be used to restrain the people of Mondstadt.

But as he was leaving, he said: 'I don't need to gather faith.'

I went to the library and looked through countless books but couldn't find any relevant information. To gather faith, should it refer to the church?

After failing to find any information, I had to start observing Lord Barbatos secretly. A day for Lord Barbatos, the god of wind: drinking water from the fountain to wash his face in the morning, picking wild fruits outside the city in the morning, taking a nap on a tree branch at noon, working to earn money in the afternoon, using the money earned to buy wine at night, and then sleeping on the street.

I thought it was just a special day, and then I stalked him for three months, every day.

40% of the tax revenue of the entire Mondstadt was given to the church. I used to think that part of this money was used for Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.

But what I saw before me made me feel very scared. They actually let Lord Barbatos live a life of eating and sleeping in the open air? Could it be that the church in Mondstadt doesn't even know what the wind god Barbatos looks like?"

Mond was shocked, and countless people were stunned. How could our own wind god live like this? Our money was donated to the wind god Barbatos!

Barbara stared at her sister blankly, and then saw a green figure standing on the roof on the left. She neither stopped nor objected. Has Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, always lived that kind of life? Why did it become like this?

"In order to confirm this, I found a cardinal. I told him that I had never seen the wind god, Lord Barbatos. I heard that the cardinal had seen the wind god, so I wanted him to describe what he looked like.

Do you know what he said? [Ah! That is a very beautiful girl, with long golden hair that falls to her waist, golden pupils, a plump body, and wings on her back. The statue at the door of the church is her.]

It was completely different from the Wind God I knew. As for who was the real one? The Lord in Liyue treated him with courtesy and called him Lord Wind God.

One is a big shot in Liyue, and the other is the Lord of the Wind. Neither of them can be easily invited. The church must have countless backup plans for such doubts. It is not surprising that the church, which controls a large number of Wind God artifacts, uses special artifacts to create a fake Wind God.

So I gave up the idea and started looking into where the 40% tax went. And then I found something even more terrifying.”

Chapter 154: The Final End of the Woman Who Gave Everything for Mond

"That is: Mond is returning to the age of slavery!!! This time, even the wind god Barbatos can't save Mond!"

The people of Mond were stunned by the nuclear bomb. Return to the slavery era during Lawrence's time?

"I know many people don't believe it, but I can provide you with relevant evidence. What you do has nothing to do with me. I just want Jean to die. Keeping her will only bring more tragedies to Mondstadt.

I observed the daily life of the nuns in the church. In the morning, they did morning prayers, practiced singing, cleaned the place, and provided prayers. They took a nap at noon, listened to the confessions of the residents in the afternoon, and accepted donations from the residents of Mond. In the evening, they did evening prayers, and then rested.

Such a simple day wouldn't consume much Mora, right? Besides, there were a lot of donations from the people of Mondstadt.

So? Where will all this Mora go? What about the other people in the church? I followed a knight captain, who was born as an ordinary person. Although he was called the Knight of West Wind, he had completely rebelled and became a knight of the church.

He gambles and drinks every day and needs three beautiful women to sleep with him every night. The salary of the Knights of Favonius cannot cover such high expenses.

With so much Mora to squander, there must be another way to get money in. When I wanted to investigate further, he died inexplicably.

At that time, I thought it was an accident. But later, even the people who supported me gradually died. However, it was too late.

After this incident, I found that the number of documents I had to sign, cat catching, dog catching, and trash picking up by the Knights had increased by more than three times. At that time, I was naive, and faced with this very abnormal amount of documents, I thought it was the real needs of the residents of Mondstadt.

Until later, I accidentally heard words that almost made me collapse:

'The task paperwork on Captain Qin's desk is almost finished, it's time to write some new ones.'

"Please spare me! Editing takes time! Who would have thought she would handle it so quickly."

"Get ten more writers with money! Make them produce at least 1000 copies a day. Don't let her sit idle. If she's idle, she'll be looking for this and that, and then we'll both be dead."

"Okay! Who will pay for it then?"

"The Knights of Favonius will reimburse you, but do you still expect the master to reimburse you?"

At that time, I finally understood why the Knights of Favonius had so many things to do. The documents they worked so hard to deal with every day were actually made up. Apart from these things, the things that the Knights of Favonius really had to deal with every day did not exceed ten. "

In the minds of the people of Mond, a figure named Captain Jean appeared, who carefully reviewed documents all night long. He had perfect chivalry and everything he did was for the benefit of the people. He marked every document carefully.

But on the other side of the room, countless knights were making up stories and handing false documents to the poor girl.

"Lisa, take the stack of documents on the right side of my desk and read them to the people of Mondstadt."

Lisa looked at the leader of the group, Jean, and thought about his ability. Controlling all plants naturally included their memories. There should be nothing that Mond could hide from him. Could this be true?

Take this document downstairs to the side of 'Qin'.

"Read it!"

"Bennett was trapped in a secret place this morning, and the Adventurer's Association requested the Knights to rescue him."

"How is that possible? I was sorting out my adventure equipment this morning and never left Mondstadt." A voice came from below. It was Bennett himself. Countless people looked at Bennett, their hearts were blown.

"Three more cats have escaped from Miss Margaret's home. We ask the Knights to go look for them."

"That's not right! I just counted them when I came out, and they are not lost!" Margaret was a little speechless after listening to the document.

"Old man xx broke his leg and has no money for treatment. He needs help from the Knights."

"'Civilized Sentences' My father passed away years ago. When did he need the Knights to rescue him?"

......

As one thing after another was read out, people looked at each other in confusion. What was going on?

"Ah! I see. I received the mission document from Captain Qin before. Then the captain took the document away and said that he had completed the mission along the way." A new knight at the door recalled what happened before.

"Speaking of which, for these kinds of ordinary assistance and commission tasks, there is no need to write a task report. Just get the signature of the client. As for the signature, can you sign it yourself?" Another knight also discovered the trick.

"Before, the head of the Qin group asked me if my husband's illness had healed. I thought it was strange because my husband hadn't been sick for several years. Of course, I just replied that he had recovered a long time ago."

"Yes! Yes! Obviously, these were things that happened a long time ago, but sometimes she asks about them and it's really confusing."

Especially in Mondstadt, people started to discuss it. In a village 800 kilometers away from Mondstadt, many people gathered at the door of a farmhouse.

“Are your chickens missing?”

"No! Aren't these five chickens all here?"

"Your Eric is the only child who left the village to become a knight, right? Not many people come to this village, and not many people go out. He is the only one who knows that you raise chickens. I'm afraid this child has gone astray." The old lady sighed.

"For children from rural families like us, there is almost no way to become a knight. The only way is to serve as a dog for a noble master. If you do a good job, you will be given a bone to chew.

He was able to get the title of knight and become famous. No wonder! Last year, the treasure-stealing group came to our village to rob, and it was only because he said the name of Eric that he escaped. But... Alas..." The village elder also shook his head.

The live broadcast of the situation inside Mondstadt is still going on.

"Currently, only one-fifth of the documents I have to sign are fake. In a year, that number will be nine-tenths. I have wasted my time, reduced my rest and martial arts training, and my strength has even fallen short of Diluk's.

There are so many documents every day that there is naturally no chance to go out and investigate.

At this time, the nobles and the church group had reached an agreement with Xuanyuan Trading Company on the cement road project, and that lord also came to Mondstadt for a visit. As the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius, he naturally had to go and meet him.

I asked him for help again. Therefore, I once again owed him a debt of favor that I could not repay. And this was the beginning of despair. "Qin closed her eyes.

The scene changed, and Lin Zixuan and Captain Qin from Xuanyuan Trading Company appeared in the office. But Captain Qin had sunken cheekbones, was very thin, and had a pale face, as if he had been malnourished for a long time.

"Master Xuan, can you please do me a favor?"

"Again? Last time, you asked me to build a cement road for Mond at a lower price, and I agreed. I signed the contract at cost price and gave Mond many preferential policies. Last time, you asked me to waive the penalty for the Knights of Favonius, which was a total of 10 trillion Mora, and I agreed.

"It's just one or two times of helping, just like helping a friend, it doesn't matter. After all, I have a good impression of knights like you and Eula. But if you help me again and again without any reward, don't you think that since I owe you so much, it doesn't matter if I owe you a little more?"

During the few minutes of silence, Lin Zixuan took out a can of tea and started brewing Kung Fu tea. He then placed a cup of tea in front of Qin.

"Absolutely not, I'm just wondering what kind of reward is enough." Qin picked up the teacup and took a few sips. In less than 30 seconds, her face suddenly changed.

"The barrel is here. I think you'd better pay me the reward for saving your life first. You've been taking chronic poison for almost a year, but you're lucky enough not to have been poisoned to death." Lin Zixuan kicked a wooden barrel next to her leg.

There was a sound of vomiting.

"This is a very rare plant poison in Xumi. No wonder even Lisa didn't see it. Well, it should be in this jar. It's top-grade coffee beans. You really are willing to give it away."

Lin Zixuan walked to the table next to him. There was a small jar filled with coffee beans on it. He sniffed it gently and reached out his hand. After a while, a pinch of gray powder appeared in his palm.

The powder was sprinkled out of the window. The two eavesdroppers saw the powder and their faces turned green, and they ran away quickly.

"Thank you very much for saving my life." After Qin spit out the poisonous blood, some redness returned to her face.

"Let me give you my final advice. Just be a puppet leader and stop making trouble. This time it was just a slow poisoning, what will it be next time? If you want to go against the top capitalists in Mondstadt alone, you will only bring about your own destruction.

After all, your wish is just to "protect Mondstadt forever". When monsters attack the city, donate your several dozen kilograms of flesh, and that's it, right?"

"No, my 'Eternal Protection of Mondstadt' is not such a narrow-minded thing. I want to see a Mondstadt that is warmer, more prosperous, more peaceful, and freer."

“What a beautiful wish. But I think you are talking about Liyue?

Warmth, when one side is in trouble, all sides will come to its aid. Prosperity, the most lively place in Teyvat. Peace, the old have a place to live, the strong have a place to work, the young have a place to grow, the widowed, the lonely, the disabled, all have a place to take care of. Freedom, even the treasure-stealing group can't find you, you can go wherever you want.

You just need to change "Forever Defender of Mondstadt" to "Forever Defender of Liyue". Then you can see the city you want. It's simple, right? Wouldn't it be easier to join Liyue?"

"What do you think of the Knight's Oath? I would rather die than join Liyue!"

"You would rather die than join? That's quite ambitious. After your physical body dies, I will temporarily protect your soul. By then, I want to see if you have other answers. Maybe you can even give me some surprises. What do you think of this contract?"

The people of Mond looked at this scene. Was this how the leader of the group, Jean, came to be?

"This big bad guy has never done anything good!" Paimon said angrily.

"Paimon, there are so many people who didn't even have the chance to choose. Captain Qin...she also made her own choice." Ying watched all this.

"Strange, why do all the information on my divination plate show that it's all fake? Captain Qin's fate seems to be going astray." Mona was a little confused when she looked at the situation on the water divination plate.

Eh?

"I...I...signed it. Can you still help me?"

"I can provide you with some information, but the number of times is limited. There are no supplies, personnel, or anything like that. So, you have to think carefully about what information you want."

"I want to know..."

Chapter 155 Darkening

"I want to know, where did all the tax revenues of Monde that have been embezzled over the years go?"

"What's the point of knowing? It won't change anything. Besides, it will only make you more troubled."

"I really want to know the truth. The knight I arranged to go to the church has also disappeared. There are not many people in the Knights of Favonius who can be trusted. Why did it turn out like this?"

"Well, okay. I also want to see if you can still maintain that beautiful spirit of chivalry after you know what is hidden under the water in Mondstadt." Lin Zixuan's mouth curled up.

They opened the door and walked out, but the knight guarding the door seemed to have not seen them leave.

"Is this an illusion?"

"Well, in their eyes, we are still talking in the room. Let's go, don't stay too far away from me."

"where are we going?"

"Everything you want to know is under the West Wind Cathedral."

At the entrance of West Wind Cathedral.

"There is a very strong barrier underground that will constantly conduct checks. If someone who has exceeded the 'transformation' level and is not registered enters, an alarm will be triggered. Therefore, the trusted knights you send out, whether they are stronger or weaker, will not be able to escape the result of death."

"Are they all dead?"

"Not dead, but it's no different from being dead now."

"I have to get them out!"

"Don't dream. You don't even have the strength of Diluk. You have no qualifications to rescue them. You will only be trapped here as well."

"Let's go! It's time to see the other side of Mondstadt."

"The other side of Mondstadt?"
