Original God: Start with Qiuqiu, become stronger with food and beauties

"Mr. Hao Wang is such a joke. Am I the kind of person who would be suspicious of guests?" Kaiya still kept smiling.

"You are."

"..."

King Hao also smiled: "Strictly speaking, you are not from Mond, right?"

"This is getting more and more outrageous. I grew up here, and this joke is not funny."

"Alberic, I learned from a mysterious person that this is the surname of a noble in the royal court of Kerria, and you happen to have this surname."

Kaiya was stunned when he heard this: "I'm really surprised. Not many people know this, and you actually managed to get the information."

"There's so much information I can get."

Kaeya then had a guess that King Hao was not actually from Liyue, but was sent from there to contact him. Now that they could no longer control the flag, were they planning to destroy it?

"I'll give you a piece of information for free. The Fatui will keep making small moves here. Even with the presence of the Night Elf, they are unlikely to succeed. If you cooperate with them, hehe... I guess their expressions will be very interesting." King Hao drank the last sip of wine and left the tavern.

"..." Kaiya felt that bad feeling again after a long time.

……

Wind Rising Land was a vast and tranquil place, where a gentle breeze rustled the grass and leaves. After arriving here, King Hao felt, for some reason, remarkably calm and at peace. He walked briskly to the Seven Heavens statue of the Wind God. The statue stood several meters tall, solemn and majestic, as if guarding the land. But he knew the Wind God was a frivolous creature, spending his days drinking and singing, doing nothing.

King Hao carefully took out the dandelion wine and gently placed it on the stone platform in front of the statue. This bottle of dandelion wine was purchased from an angel's gift... and it contained his yearning for freedom and his respect for the wind god.

Yes! I respect this Tamagotchi so much, it's acting up again.

When the dandelion wine touched the stone platform, King Hao felt an inexplicable power surge within him. He gazed at the statue silently, praying in his heart: "Great God of Wind, please protect me and allow me to fly freely like a dandelion."

“…” King Hao shook his head: I can accept flying but I cannot accept soaring.

King Hao stood before the statue, taking in the natural atmosphere around him, his heart filled with awe.

"Ah, it would be wonderful to have a bottle of dandelion wine at this time." While King Hao was stunned, a cuckolded young man with white silk stockings had already started drinking it.

"Hey! That's an offering to Lord Barbatos! How could you drink it?" King Hao shouted. He secretly rejoiced: He's taken the bait.

"Oh, sorry, I haven't had a drink in ages. I was just craving it. Hey! How about letting me, the best bard in the world, play you a song to pay for your drink?" The young man smiled. "You know, I, Wendy, am quite famous in Mondstadt."

King Hao pretended to think about it, then said, "Since you are a bard, you should have some ability to interpret. I want to do something big. Since you have drunk the wine, you can pretend to be Barbatos."

"Ah?" Wendy was stunned.

"This concerns world peace. You know the Fatui, right? That notorious organization." King Hao put his hands on his hips. "They have a plan... to collect the Hearts of God from other countries. My boss assigned me the task of coming here to protect the Wind God. After all, the Wind God uses his own power to maintain the climate of all of Teyvat. His own power is dwindling, making him very easy prey for the Fatui. So, Mr. Wendy, since we can't lure the Wind God out, I can only ask you to act. Once the Fatui takes the bait, I'll take advantage of their unpreparedness and attack them directly. Beat them half to death, then write a provocative letter... and then do this, this, that, that..."

"Oh, I understand. This concerns the peace of Mondstadt. As someone who possesses the Eye of God, it's only natural for me to contribute." Wendy said very seriously.

"Okay, I'll be leaving first. I'll be waiting for you here in a few days."

On the tree, a sickly older sister wearing a purple silk fishing net had a complicated expression.

Kaeya, who had quietly followed, was also confused. "It seems that things are very complicated, involving the Fatui... And the saying that the climate of Teyvat is maintained by Lord Barbatos... or... is he just telling me this on purpose?"

……

"Are you saying that the man named Hao Wang came to Mond for another purpose?" Qin pondered. "How credible do you think what he said is?"

"It's hard to say. He hasn't revealed any clues and even knows that the Knights are on guard against him." Kaia shrugged helplessly.

"Amber, what do you think?" Jean asked.

Amber carried Count Bunny on her back and said, "I think he's a good man. It's just a hunch."

“…” Kaia was speechless.

"I have news. He and Bennett will go exploring some slightly challenging places this afternoon. Amber, you can come along and take a look."

……

When King Hao arrived at the meeting place, he saw a young man in a cloak approaching him and sniffing: "This smell... are you... the... trial participant?"

"Oh, it's Lei Ze. That gentleman mentioned you to me." Although King Hao had never heard any news about Lei Ze from the Wolf King, this did not stop him from making up stories.

"Hello." Lei Ze nodded.

"Oh, I didn't expect you two actually knew each other." Bennett scratched his head: "What a coincidence."

"It's not that I know him, it's just that I happened to meet his parents and we had a brief conversation," Hao Wang added.

He looked around and found that some people seemed to be missing: "By the way, where is the person I met before?"

"Um... maybe I'm just unlucky and he was implicated. Now she is sick and can't come out." Bennett lowered his head embarrassedly.

"Ahem, have you received the commission to subjugate the ruins guards this time?"

"Of course, and the commission is quite high, a full 30,000 Mora." Bennett was very excited: "But, can we win?"

"You can't trust me?"

"Of course not, it's just my luck..."

"Bennett, a truly strong person doesn't rely on luck. Look, even though you've always been unlucky, under the tempering of so many difficulties, aren't you getting stronger day by day?"

"Hearing you say that, it seems to be true!" Bennett became motivated again.

When they were in the middle of their conversation, Amber came over and greeted King Hao: "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."

"It's Amber. We are planning to attack the guards of the ruins, and we are in need of an archer. I heard that your archery skills are great. I wonder if you are free to help?" When King Hao saw Amber coming, he invited him to form a team, so that the team was full.

"Of course." Amber didn't expect that Captain Qin had just assigned her a task to keep an eye on King Hao, and she was just looking for a reason to follow him, but she was invited to join the team by him by chance.
