People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 376 Diluk: The power of the evil eye is fear. You must be a follower of the gods.
"However, it is said that the concentration of elements in the Wind Dragon Ruins has been judged to be seriously exceeded.
Although it is not as bad as the battlefield we saw at that time, it is still far beyond the level that ordinary people can endure."
"If we can't notify that big guy, it might not be easy to break through the wind wall at the edge and get in."
After finishing another plate of food in front of him, Paimon noticed that Ying seemed to be still thinking about how to meet the God of Wind, so he tilted his head and interjected a few words about the objective difficulties he was currently facing.
"Well, the good news is that according to the bards, the God of Wind and the Dragon of Wind seem to like Mond's poetry very much.
If we can find some experienced bards, and have them praise the gods and dragons in a loud voice, and then offer some fine wine, then maybe we can lure these two to show up on their own initiative."
"Clang-"
Before he could finish his words, the sound of a wooden door being pushed open and armor colliding came from the side.
A Knight of Favonius on duty put his hand on his chest, saluted Ying and Paimon in front of him, and then spoke with a bit of apology:
"——I'm so sorry to bother you!"
"——The Acting Leader sincerely invites the two heroes to meet at the Knights' Order to discuss the issue of remuneration!
You two don't have to worry, you can have breakfast here without any worries.
But it is said that Master Diluk of the Dawn Winery will invite all participants to a banquet in the winery, where a lot of valuable food and drinks will be provided."
"Reward! Rich people! Party!"
The moment he heard the words of the Knight of Favonius, he forgot the question he had been thinking about.
A certain white-haired kid's eyes lit up, and he accurately grasped the key points he should pay attention to among a bunch of "invalid information".
A moment later, in the office of the acting head of the group.
".According to Lord Barbatos' oracle, the East Wind Dragon has returned this time, and the statue should be made to the same specifications as the Wind God statue."
".The church has applied to add a wind dragon statue to the side of the church's wind statue. Its historical image will be updated according to the latest observations. The subsequent production materials and craftsmen will be commissioned by the church according to the highest standards."
"Boom boom boom——"
"—Jin, Lisa! We're coming!"
The discussion about the statue had just come to an end when there were several knocks on the door and a lively greeting.
Hearing that the Knights of Honor and the representatives of the Decree Council, who had made great contributions to resolving this crisis and turned the tide, had arrived,
Qin also stopped her third confirmation and handed the planned statue construction documents in her hand to the Knight of Favonius beside her, asking him to contact the logistics department and connect with the Church of Favonius.
"squeak--"
With a slight sound of wood rubbing against each other, the chair under him was pulled open.
The acting team leader, who stood up from his desk for the first time in the morning, stretched his stiff arms and prepared to open the door himself.
".So, it turns out that not only the Knights of Favonius, but also Liyue will provide us with rewards?!"
".Then Ying and I can get a lot of Mora this time, and become millionaires from now on?!"
Inside the office of the acting leader, a certain white-haired kid was very surprised after hearing what Qin said. He never expected that the neighboring country Liyue would also pay close attention to this incident.
"Well, the Seven Stars of Liyue sent someone to contact us yesterday.
It seems that they also have an astrologer who predicted the original scope of the disaster in advance."
".So after the summoning ceremony of the Order Institute successfully intercepted the falling star halfway, Liyue agreed to support the reconstruction and also prepared to provide a lot of supplies to reward the participants."
He nodded and gave a positive answer to Paimon's question.
I have been dealing with various "diplomatic incidents" these past two days, and calculating the losses caused by the Fatui and the Treasure Thieves.
Qin, who was already a little overwhelmed, had to admit that Liyue’s proactive cooperation was rare good news.
"Well, what about those bad guys who were caught?
Will Winter send someone to take them away?"
Recalling the Fatui's style of behavior seen in the documents of the Court of the Order, Paimon was also worried that these guys would be easily asked to go back by Zhidong.
"No, on the contrary, it seems that the executive officer in charge of the troops has judged them as "low-quality assets".
Zhidong had no intention of redeeming these Fatui. When negotiating the compensation, he insisted that this was the personal behavior of the executive officer and did not pay any attention to their intentions.
Right now, the Knights are short of manpower and it is difficult to continue supervision, so I am also worried about how to deal with these prisoners."
According to subsequent interrogations, Qin found that most of these Fatui had no idea of the full plan. They were probably treated as "abandoned pawns" from the beginning.
But after all, there were quite a few people captured. According to the tradition of the Knights of Favonius, executing all these captives could only be the last resort.
After all, this will not only greatly intensify the hatred between the people of the two countries, but it will also not bring any benefits to Mond itself. It is a way of dealing with the problem that maximizes losses.
"Those executive officers of Um Zhidong are really a bunch of bad guys!
Why would their gods choose such a guy as their subordinate? ! "
I originally thought that I couldn't let Zhidong take these prisoners back so easily.
But when he heard that the executive officers were planning to abandon these soldiers, a certain white-haired ball became inexplicably angry.
After seeing how Liyue, Xumi, and even Mondstadt treated their own people, she was completely unable to understand what the country of Winter Solstice was all about.
"Haha, little guy, I didn't expect you to have this level of empathy. This is really rare."
"If I have to say, the answer is actually very simple, just like a scale that needs to have equal weights on both ends to maintain balance.
Obviously, compared to these "minor details", the God of Winter has more important issues to pay attention to.
But, as to what it is, perhaps only those executives know. "
I found that Paimeng and even Ying in front of me found this situation difficult to understand.
Lisa, who had long known the Fatui's style, also shook her head, feeling that it was very rare to find someone as powerful yet simple and kind as them.
After a brief pause and looking back at Qin, Lisa glanced at the two letters on the table and also expressed her own suggestion:
"——Since Zhidong has chosen to give up on these prisoners at the national level, how about agreeing to the request of the two executive officers?"
".Since they are willing to compensate for the damage done by these fools, then it is not impossible to hand over some of the captives as long as the appropriate price is paid."
"."
".You mean 'servant' and 'captain'?"
Qin quickly understood what Lisa was talking about and fell into deep thought.
"Although we have never dealt with them, as the fourth seat's "servant", I have nominated some of the Fatui members and am willing to redeem them at a high price.
As the "Captain" of the group, he requested that the Fatui soldiers who had not caused serious damage be assigned to him. In addition to compensation, he also personally promised not to participate in any missions in Mondstadt in the future.
Considering the Grand Master's evaluation of this executive officer, I think as long as they are sincere enough, this may be a win-win measure in the current predicament." He took a sip of the brewed black tea in his hand and took the initiative to make suggestions on the predicament faced by the Knights.
Although Lisa still looked lazy, Qin knew that this was extremely rare for her.
".Huh. Let me think about it again. Even if we agree to their request, it will be a big job to identify the personnel and make detailed terms."
After all, no matter what, those members of the Fatui who have caused a real bad influence must receive the due punishment.
Although the reputations of these two executive officers were relatively good, Qin sighed slightly when she thought about how much time it would take to count and organize the crimes of the Fatui.
"Well, although I don't quite understand, could it be that there are some not-so-bad guys among the Fatui executive officers?
Then why are these guys able to work together? Won't they fight among themselves?"
Paimeng, who was already dizzy, scratched his head, thinking that this matter was very complicated to think about.
".That's because the Fatui's executive system is very special. Their "Queen" allows them to put their personal will before orders.
In this situation where there is almost no mandatory control and everything depends on one's own performance, the styles of different executives will naturally vary greatly."
I have been listening for a while and I see that the group of travelers around me are extremely confused about the ecology of the Fatui.
Lin Feng, a member of the project and representative of the "Council of Religious Affairs", also began to explain.
After a brief pause, seeing that Paimon's view of the Fatui seemed to be shifting in another direction, he shook his head and corrected him in time:
"——Although it is possible that different Fatui executives may fight each other due to different ideologies,
But in most cases, I still recommend that you be wary of the Fatui.
The individual actions of a few executives are not representative of the entire group.
Since the Fatui can be the source of most of the vicious incidents between the Seven Kingdoms, it actually shows which side the behavior styles of most of the executive officers are inclined to. "
"."
After the words fell, Jean and Lisa beside him had no objection to this conclusion because they still remembered the Fatui's previous behavior.
The little yellow-haired creature next to a certain white-haired ball lowered his head slightly when he saw this scene, and pondered for a moment as if thinking about something. He decided to be more vigilant about events related to the Fatui in the future.
"Well, you are all distinguished guests, and it would not be good to let you be troubled by such troubles.
Originally, Albedo and I planned to use some rare alchemical items or potions as additional rewards besides Mora.
But now that Liyue will also provide supplies, in order to avoid overlap in functions, the rewards will be slightly delayed. After you have looked at the rewards over there, please state your respective needs."
Yawning and lazily changing the subject, Lisa looked at the clock on the wall and nodded, then continued:
"——The root cause of this incident is the Fatui's plot against Mondstadt's Wind God's followers. This is Mondstadt's own problem.
However, out of goodwill, the scholars of Xumi solved most of the problems as guests.
It is only right and reasonable that Mond must express gratitude.
The Dawn Winery held a special banquet this time to entertain the scholars and the Knights of Favonius who participated in the project.
Since the time is almost up, why don't you all come with me?"
"Well, Qin, come with us.
It's rare for "Master Diluk" to take the initiative to invite the Knights. Just think of it as a favor to us, the largest taxpayer. You, the great contributor who has been busy for the past few days, should really take a break. "
In a lazy voice that sounded soft but somehow made people feel that it was unquestionable, he persuaded a certain acting leader.
Qin, who originally wanted to stay, paused, and finally nodded hesitantly.
A moment later, at the Dawn Winery.
I went back and called a group of scholars who had nothing to do because of the unexpected incident.
Lin Feng, Little Yellow Hair and Qin, who was leading a team of Knights of Favonius, also used the self-regulatory devices carried by the scholars to quickly arrive in front of the largest winery in Mondstadt.
Get off the car and stop.
The luxurious manor with unique style was located in the middle of the endless grape field. Many servants in maid uniforms were cleaning the surroundings of the manor.
Rows of grape racks are neatly scattered in the regular square fields.
In this fertile land where it is spring all year round, even though the cold winter has just passed, you can still find some scattered wine grapes on the green vines.
Seeing that a certain white-haired ball seemed to be curious about the taste of these grapes,
But just after Paimon took two steps, the blonde girl beside him sighed and grabbed the clothes by the back of his neck, and warned him helplessly:
"——Paimon, I suggest you not to pick grapes to eat."
"——If you have ever taken a look at the winery's introduction, you should know that these grapes won't taste very good when eaten directly."
I have become accustomed to this useless guide whose mind is full of food and whose stomach is larger than his body.
Ying looked at the red-haired figure walking towards her, and was glad that she had intervened in time to stop the white-haired ball from turning into a lawnmower:
——She actually only said half of what she said.
In fact, although the taste of grapes used for winemaking is not as good as that of grapes used specifically for eating,
However, due to the excellent light, water and soil conditions in Mondstadt, the improved grapes of Château d'Azur do not taste too bad when eaten alone.
If Paimeng discovers the truth, then if one is not careful, the grape racks that have been eaten up in the winery may have to be counted in "blocks".
“.Welcome to Chenxi Winery. Food and wine are ready.
Of course, non-alcoholic juices are also available. I believe this banquet will not disappoint you.”
As the owner of the winery, it is rare for him to take the initiative to go out and greet guests.
Looking at the guests in front of him with expectant faces, Diluk was glad that he rejected Kaiana's request to be responsible for the "banquet decoration".
"."
He silently crossed the team amidst the complicated looks from the Knights.
Diluk, who had long wanted to talk to a representative of the Order, suppressed the trembling "evil eye" on his glove.
Contrary to her usual behavior, she took the initiative to extend her hand to Lin Feng in the face of his somewhat surprised look.
"."
After a brief pause, I extended my hand politely, and suddenly found that the other party seemed to take the opportunity to quietly pass me a note.
Lin Feng subconsciously scanned the contents with his mind.
He was also at a loss for words because of the unexpected but reasonable events that unfolded.
The message on the note only had one sentence, nothing else but:
"——The power in the evil eyes is fear. Your identity as a follower of God is not a rumor.
I have some questions to ask you. If it is convenient for you, please take some time out during the banquet to go to the second floor of the winery.
I promise on behalf of the winery that I will give you a return equal to the value of the problem later.”
