Chapter 164 Should We Try to Cut Off the Supply?
The cathedral was in complete chaos.
Several Favonius Knights on duty rushed out of the church, looking disheveled, and asked Ott, the guard at the door, "Ahem, have you seen anyone?"
Ott complained with a bitter face, "We saw them, but we couldn't catch them at all. As soon as the two of them came out, they spread their Wind Wings, and a strong wind actually carried them directly over the head of the Wind God statue. Then the direction they were trying to escape was completely blocked by the Wind God statue."
"It's like...it's as if the wind god is protecting us..."
The knight who had asked the question flew into a rage and rebuked him, "Don't talk nonsense! How could those thieves who stole the Wind God's treasure still be protected by the Wind God? You and Miles go and investigate in that direction immediately."
And the instigators of all this, Xu Ning and Kong, had already easily reached the door of the angel's gift under the blowing of a thousand winds.
However, the two froze as soon as they reached the second floor.
"Acting Commander Qin, what... what are you doing here?"
Kong was completely dumbfounded. I was still wearing my night clothes. Was it too late to put my mask back on?
Xu Ning, however, was quite frank. He greeted Qin and asked, "Commander Qin, things are in complete chaos over there. Don't you need to go and direct things on the spot?"
Jean looked at Xu Ning seriously and said, "I've already sent Kaeya over. I came to ask if it's true that Diluc told me the purification of the harp's music can restore the wind dragon to normal?"
"Absolutely."
Wendy interjected, "Hey? You went to steal... cough cough, you went to borrow the piano?"
Xu Ning spread his hands and said, "The Fools beat us to it and deliberately exposed us. It seems they had planned this all along."
Jean glanced at Wendy a few times, then carefully said, "Today, the envoys of the Fatui also came to me to discuss taking over the defenses of Mondstadt to ensure the safety of the people of Winterfell in Mondstadt. They also clearly stated that they could assign a Fatui executor to subdue the wind dragon Dvalin."
Wendy asked in surprise, "You didn't agree to them, did you?"
Jean nodded and said, "We Knights of Favonius are unwilling to go to war with the former Four Winds Guardians, so how could we use others to eliminate Dvalin?"
"Moreover, the Fools, led by the Ice God, have long coveted the divine power left behind by the Wind God. Whether it's the Sky Harp or the East Wind Dragon Dvalin, they are things they desperately want to obtain. As children of the Wind God, we will absolutely not hand over our power."
Diluc, who had dismissed Ultraman and Miles from downstairs, came up and said, "Now that we have a clear target, let's gather the information by tomorrow. The sooner the Wind Dragon matter is resolved, the less malice there will be around Mondstadt."
Xu Ning, who had been busy for most of the night and wanted to sleep in, was woken up early by Qingyi.
"What are you doing so early?" Xu Ning asked, displeased.
The man in green pointed outside the cave, saying, "The kid next door has been knocking on the door for ages."
Is it free? Why are you acting crazy so early in the morning instead of sleeping?
Xu Ning yawned as he left the cave and opened the door again.
As soon as Kong came in, he asked, "Xu Ning, what should we do today?"
Xu Ning asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"
Kong said anxiously, "Find the Sky Harp. Or find out where the Fatui are. I feel like I haven't been able to help at all since I became an honorary knight of the Knights of Favonius. Instead, I've caused a lot of trouble for Mondstadt."
Xu Ning patted the earnest young man on the shoulder and advised, "You'll be a great help if you just focus on being a good Tvalin purifier. The other tasks can be done by those who are good at them."
"We have to do something, it's hard to just wait like this."
Xu Ning sighed. Seeing his anxious expression, she was afraid he would also be unable to sleep.
"Then let's go out for a walk and find out some information."
Upon hearing this, Kong happily went to call Paimon, who was still in bed.
Xu Ning walked out of the apartment building and headed straight for the Goethe Hotel with Kong in tow.
He was immediately pulled back.
"Xu Ning, what are you doing there?"
Xu Ning asked curiously, "To gather information? Didn't you say that?"
He was stunned, so he went straight to the opponent's headquarters to ask for information. What kind of operation is that?
As soon as Xu Ning stepped onto the steps of the Goethe Hotel, a masked guard standing at the entrance spoke.
"What are you looking at? Stay away if you have nothing to do! This is the territory of the Fools!"
Xu Ning smiled and said, "I'm not comfortable staying in my apartment over there, so I'd like to book a large room here."
"The entire Goethe Hotel has been booked by the Fools' party. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter. You'd better go somewhere else!"
Xu Ning said "Oh," and then asked again, "What are the Fools doing in Mondstadt?"
"Hey, the Fools don't just go to a place for no reason. It's because those knight orders can't even handle a dragon. When they're in trouble, we Fools will step in... At that time, we'll have the power to garrison troops and the power to make diplomatic statements... Bah! You dare to try to trick me, Lord Luke, get out of here! Remember, you didn't hear anything, and I didn't say anything either."
Xu Ning stepped aside, then turned back and asked, "But can the Fools really defeat Wind Demon Dragon?"
Luke chuckled and said, "Heh! How dare you underestimate us, the Fools? I've seen the eleventh seat of the Executive Officer, the young master, make a move. It was terrifying... What's more, this time we have the eighth seat lady here. As long as she makes a move, the Wind Demon Dragon is nothing... Ugh, trying to trick me. Let's go, let's go."
Xu Ning walked away with a bewildered Kong, and laughed, "Now we have information about our opponents. Next, we just need to wait for Diluc to find out where they placed the Sky Harp."
They hadn't walked for long when they ran into Venti, who said that Diluc wanted them to meet at the tavern.
"They must have found their whereabouts."
Wendy speculated, "However, I think neither the Knights of Favonius nor Diluc have yet realized the true determination of the Fatui."
Paimon, who was flying to the side, asked curiously, "What determination?"
Wendy said seriously, "Whether they want to obtain the Sky Harp or capture Dvalin, I'm afraid they just want to find out the true form of the Wind God through the connection with the wind. That's their real purpose."
"Just like how Sister Lisa located the three temples by finding the source of the storm."
Xu Ning glanced at Feng Shen, who was still running around recklessly under the enemy's nose, and tentatively said, "Then... why don't you store what they want here with me in advance? I guarantee it will be the safest place in the world."
