As long as you have the Winter Credits, you can achieve everything you want. Those outside... are just eliminated losers."
"Everything can be achieved? Then is killing also free?"
"That's right, as long as you pay 30 Winter Credits as ransom, you can kill any ordinary unemployed civilians. If you pay two people, you have to pay 80, and the higher the amount, the higher the price. So don't kill too many at once.
If you are a person with a position, such as the Black Armored Judgement Knights, you need 100 million Winter Credits. As long as you can pay the ransom and redeem your sins, you can live freely in Mondstadt. "
Paimon and Ying stared at the strange bird in amazement. It completely refreshed their three views.
"No wonder the big bad guy gave us so much money..." Paimon scratched his head. "What if we accidentally kill a noble?"
"As for the nobles, the lowest rank requires a redemption fee of 1 million Winter Credits. You are young, you probably don't have that much money.
So when you encounter something you don't like, it's better to stay calm. In Mondstadt, everyone is free, but the premise is... you have to be rich." The strange bird explained patiently.
The chaos on the street outside gradually subsided, and the strange bird looked at the sky.
"It's getting late, let's go. By the way, please give me 4000 Winter Credits first. This lovely lady, please sit on your friend's shoulders, otherwise the entrance fee will be more expensive."
"The entrance fee is 2000 Winter Credits per person? Why is it so expensive?" Paimon asked in surprise.
"You can't even afford 2000 winter credits, yet you want to enjoy freedom and pleasure? Do you have any misunderstandings about freedom and pleasure?"
"Okay." Paimon scratched his head.
Chapter 436: Mond's Fatui Executor
Led by the strange bird, Ying and Paimon stepped onto the remembered stone bridge outside Mondstadt.
"Huh~ I was so suffocated just now. It's so uncomfortable to be a doll and not be able to speak. But... it's too easy to get in, right? You can just pay the money and be let in, and you don't even have to register your origin or anything like that." Paimeng complained.
"Free Mondstadt never cares about these little things, because there is no need. After all, if you cause some trouble and are caught and can't pay the ransom, then you can only stay in the Colosseum for the rest of your life. Even a strong man with the Eye of God will surely die within 50 battles."
"Death is certain?"
"For the Colosseum, the biggest profit comes from gambling. If you bet all your money on the 'person with a winning streak' and make a lot of money, would you want to continue making money? The dealer will definitely not let you win so easily. When everyone has spent almost all their money, the person with a winning streak must die."
"Aren't you very clear about the routine here? How could it be..."
"The outcome of that thing is totally uncontrollable. How can it be as exciting as playing poker at the gambling table? And I have a secret technique."
"Secret technique...Are you cheating? They didn't even send you to the Colosseum." Paimon crossed his arms and looked at the strange bird with contempt.
"Humph, there are rules at the gambling table. Everyone is cheating, so it just depends on who has the better skills. There is a completely different treatment between having zero assets and having negative assets that cannot pay the redemption money."
"In other words, as long as they don't become a negative asset in Mondstadt, the worst that can happen is that they'll be driven out of the city, right? What if the church and the great nobles are both negative assets?" Ying asked.
"That's impossible. The church and the great nobles have already divided up all the land in Mondstadt and can pay off all debts. Some small nobles without territories may run into problems, but they are all in the same boat. Most of them can survive after joining the great nobles."
"If the territory is occupied by others, will these nobles be sent to the Colosseum if they have financial debt problems?"
"Your idea is very dangerous! Unless you can take over all the land outside Mondstadt, you will not be able to defeat this behemoth.
Moreover, they have the support of the wind god Barbatos behind them. This alone means that they have no hope of victory.
The group of Knights of Favonius on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain thought they had won a victory, but it only accelerated the time of their demise. When the wind god Barbatos descends, it will be the day of their demise. "The strange bird curled its lips in disdain.
Ying and Paimon looked at each other and nodded slightly. I didn't expect that this strange bird would know about what happened yesterday. The distance between Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain and Mondstadt is not very close, and the battle situation there should still be considered inside information.
"Have you ever seen Barbatos, the god of wind?" Paimon asked.
"Yes, she occasionally plays the piano in the church, and occasionally chooses a lover. But over the years, she has chosen almost all nobles, and few commoners have caught her eye."
"How strong is she?"
"How should I know? How can we mortals understand the power of gods?"
The three of them had already arrived at the city gate while chatting.
"Welcome to the city of freedom and joy."*8
Eight scantily clad young ladies gathered around.
"Go away." The strange bird waved its hand and drove them all away.
"What are they?"
"Guides who can do anything for them if they have money. The quality of these is actually very poor. The ones in Angel's Gift are better."
"Angel's Gift? It seems to be a very famous tavern, right?"
"That's all old news. Now it's been transformed into a romantic place. There are men and women here, so you can choose."
The corners of Ying and Paimon's eyes twitched, revealing expressions of disbelief.
After entering the city gate, the two looked in amazement at Mondstadt, which was filled with balloons and colorful flags, as if it were a festival.
But...the people's condition surprised them. Some people on the street were relatively normal, while others were shaking their heads and twitching as if they were on drugs. Those who were moving normally seemed to be unable to see the twitching people and walked by as if they didn't see them.
"Mondstadt is a free city. There is nothing surprising about such things, and we have no right to question their 'freedom'. The two people stacked together in some corners are also their 'freedom'. In short, as long as you can afford the redemption money, any behavior is free." The strange bird introduced.
"I suddenly feel that Mondstadt is a little too scary." Paimon leaned on Ying.
"It's getting late. Are you going to the Adventurer's Guild to hand in your quest?"
"No, we want to explore Mondstadt first before making any plans."
"Okay, then I'll walk with you for a while." Seeing that they had no intention of paying the bill, the strange bird said helplessly.
"Wagner's Blacksmith Shop, where you can buy all kinds of special fetish items...
Cat's Tail Tavern, one of the best casinos in Mondstadt...
The Deer Hunter Restaurant, whose signature dish is the 128 flavors of Les Set Meals, will make you feel heavenly...
A gift from angels, a place of leisure for both men and women...
The Church of the West Wind is the residence of Barbatos, the god of wind. Under the ground is the largest Colosseum in Mondstadt.
This place... used to be the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius, but now it has been converted into the Embassy of the Kingdom of Winter."
"The Embassy of the Kingdom of Winter? Are there also Fatui from the Kingdom of Winter here?" Paimon asked, looking at the completely unfamiliar building not far away.
"The Sixth Skirmisher, the Fatui executive officer of the Kingdom of Winter, is right here. She's also a great beauty," the strange bird exclaimed.
"Scattered soldier? Beautiful lady? Uh..." Paimon imagined the scattered soldier in his mind, then quickly shook his head and threw the picture away.
"Sanbing is just a title, right? What's her real name?" Ying asked.
"This is a secret within a secret." The strange bird stretched out his hands and rubbed them.
Ying took out her wallet, pulled out a stack of Zhidong credits and put them in the strange bird's hand. The strange bird counted them with a speed that was despised by the bird.
"Real name: Rosalyn. Originally the lady of the eighth seat, she was promoted because the sixth seat was vacant."
"Eh?"*2
Ying and Paimon were both surprised, but they quickly reacted. Without their existence in Teyvat, there would naturally be no duel before the emperor, and the lady would not be killed by General Raiden.
"The deal is done. I'll leave first." The strange bird waved and prepared to leave.
"Wait! There are 100,000 here. Tell me more secret information." Ying took out another ten stacks of Zhidong Kingdom credit coins.
"I can't believe a little adventurer is so rich. I'm pretty good at judging people. Are you a new recruit of the Knights of Favonius?
Don't get involved in some things, or you will die without a burial place. Even if you want to do something, you will eventually be suppressed by the wind god Barbatos.
But it has nothing to do with me, everything will be fine once the money is in place." The strange bird licked his lips.
"Then I will tell you the most secret information. In the deepest part of the Embassy of the Kingdom of Winter, a traitor from Kanreya is imprisoned. He is also one of the most important members of the Knights of Favonius.
The distribution map of the agencies and garrison personnel on the first six floors of the Dongdong Embassy is kept in the Adventurer's Association's S1765 safe, and can be taken away for a handling fee of only 200 million.
Two beautiful ladies, I look forward to seeing you next time." The strange bird threw a smoke bomb, and after the smoke dissipated, his figure was no longer there.
"Ahem, damn it." Paimon pinched his nose with one hand and used the other to fan away the thinning choking smoke in front of him. "A traitor from Kanria? He's very important to the Knights of Favonius. Who could it be?"
"Not sure. Since he is a traitor of Kanreya, the status of Kanreya people is more noble than that of the people of Zhidong, so they cannot be killed and can only be locked up. The first six-layer map worth 200 million? He really tricked me."
"In the basement of the Embassy of the Kingdom of Winter, you might run into the Fatui executive officer... er, no. It's the executive officer skirmisher. No, I'm a little confused. It's better to call her by her real name, Rosalyn!"
Paimon shook his head and continued, "Rosalin was defeated by you before, so it shouldn't be a problem if we meet again, right?"
"It's hard to say. It's been 20 years here, and we don't know if her strength has increased. We can't be too optimistic."
"That's right. What should we do now?" Paimon scratched his head.
"Let's get that important map first. We need to verify its authenticity. It could be fake news spread by the Fatui. If it's true, then once we rescue this traitor from Kanria and escape..."
"The invisible Star Raft is the best tool for escape! It will be easier for them to accept us if we take this person to the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain." Paimeng interrupted.
"Paimon is really quick-witted. I was originally thinking about how to lead him out of Mondstadt." Ying rubbed Paimon's little head.
"Hehe, with the Star Chariot here, we don't need to worry about the city's defenses. We can just turn invisible and slip away from the sky."
As night fell, the two hurried to the Adventurer's Guild.
"My eyes...are about to be polluted." Paimon shook his head and shook off the indecent images.
"Money is everything, freedom and joy are everything in Mondstadt. People enjoy the so-called 'joy' in the drug addiction of Les, and the so-called 'freedom' in money. Even poetry has changed. I hate this kind of Mondstadt."
"I hate it too. We can't solve it alone! We have to gather those uncontaminated people with lofty ideals to have a chance to overthrow such a disgusting Mondstadt. I kind of miss Mondstadt when Wendy was there."
As they walked and chatted, the two soon arrived at the Adventurer's Association.
"Catherine, we need to open safe S1765." Paimon stepped forward and greeted.
"An adventurer I have never seen before, search...Search failed, no information about this person.
Calling the Liyue information database, the query failed.
Calling up the Inazuma information database..." Catherine muttered to herself.
"Uh...Catherine, we are not from the Adventurer's Guild. We bought this set of clothes from a traveling merchant." Seeing this, Ying realized that they had never appeared in this Teyvat, and the Adventurer's Guild had no information about them.
"Okay, please wait a moment while I check. Got it, safe S1765, anyone can claim it. Just pay 200 million Winter Credits to take it away, and the handling fee of 10 will be paid by the recipient." Catherine said after checking the information of the safe.
"What an expensive handling fee." Paimon said in surprise.
"It seems that this kind of business is charged in both directions. Strange Bird should have paid 10. He should have been sure that 'the other side' would buy this map." Ying said.
"No wonder he said he had a lot of money when he was thrown out of the city gate. It turned out to be here. These people walking in the shadows should not be underestimated.
Fortunately, the big bad guy gave us a lot of money, otherwise we would have to work for several months to raise this huge amount of money. "
"Are you sure you want to claim this safe?"
"determine."
"Then please follow me into the house to count the expenses."
After a while, Ying and Paimon walked out of the Adventurer's Guild holding a box.
Catherine watched the two leave and started searching again.
'Mond population search...No corresponding data.
Liyue population search...No corresponding data.
Inazuma...Sumeru...Fontaine...Winter Country...
Judged as...the Adventer.
Report and confirm.'
Chapter 437: After going around in circles, he became a prisoner?
Ying and Paimeng came to a deserted corner and gently opened the box in their hands. Inside the box were six maps covered with various markings.
"Is this the map information worth 200 million?" Paimeng felt a little dizzy looking at the map.
"The contents inside are very detailed, but I don't know if they are true. According to what is written on the map, if such a strong defense is discovered, even an ordinary person who goes in may not be able to escape." Ying looked through the contents of the map carefully.
"Should we try it out? But we don't have the information behind it. It should be difficult to rescue the biggest traitor of Kanria, right?"
"Since we are only taking routine precautions now, if we raid the underground prison, the chances of success are very high.
I have a feeling that if we plan to take action in two or three days, the defense arrangement of this prison may undergo major changes."
"Will there be big changes?" Paimon scratched his head.
"Well, Master Xuan just blew up the flying battleship yesterday, and the Wind God puppet was lost. For Mondstadt, this means that the Knights of Favonius on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain have a powerful backer.
They will definitely strengthen their defenses here, and they can't just sit there and do nothing. At this point, most of the Fatui's attention should be focused on the situation at the Knights of Favonius, and Mondstadt shouldn't see any changes so quickly.
