Chapter Twenty-Seven: Mission, Accomplished
Closing the panel, Ye Feng's heart was a little irritable.
Compared to other quests with unknown rewards, this is the most useful reward of all quests.
Time travel is a resurrection skill, and in some ways, a god-level skill.
In order to obtain this skill, he worked hard to promote the convening of the knight recruitment meeting, fought against the Stormterror, and even did not hesitate to verbally insult and slander the knights.
He considers himself a selfish person.
But when he saw the girl's unwilling eyes, he still felt a wave of irritability in his heart for no reason.
Destroy a person's dreams in exchange for a god-level skill.
Is that really right?
It was the first time he had hesitated.
......
Sleepless nights.
The next day, the final assessment was held as scheduled.
The girl did a great job and successfully passed the third level along with the rest of the Vision owners.
Strength has never been what she fears.
But she still failed.
With everyone's unanimous objection, intentional or not, she became the only one of all Vision owners to lose the election.
There is no need for Ye Feng to secretly do anything.
Maybe everyone wanted to protect her, and they couldn't bear to let this strong girl take on greater responsibility.
In normal times, maybe the girl doesn't think about anything.
She just feels like she's not doing well enough.
But, since last night, since what Ye Feng said to her, everything has been different.

At the scene when the results were announced, she bit her lip tightly and looked at Jean on the high platform, Kaeya, the deputy head of the regiment...
Looking at it again, the honorary knight Ye Feng was wearing silver-white armor, and in the crowd, he was being sought after by everyone.
"I just want to help people better." The girl's voice was choked.
"I want to be a knight."
"I..."
In the haze, a tissue was handed to her.
"Noelle, don't be sad, you will definitely become a knight in a few years."
Deputy Head Yasion came to her side at some point and comforted her kindly.
"To celebrate the joining of the new knights, there will be a party inside the Knights later, and Noelle, you must come."
"Deputy Master, I'm not from the Knights... Not eligible to attend the Order's internal gatherings..."Noelle lowered his head and whispered.
"Who's to say you're not? In my heart, you will always be a member of the Order. Yasion smiled and patted his chest in reassurance.
"Really, really?" Noelle looked up, as if he had found new hope.

"Really, I promise."
......
Silent night.
Three rounds of drinking.
One after another, the Knights of Favonius walked out with each other in their arms.
Noelle worked hard to clean up the messy scene, but he was a little happy in his heart.
She doesn't like to get into the nitty-gritty, and in her heart, as long as she can help others, that's enough.
"I chose to become a Knight of Favonius to help everyone, not to help everyone to become a Knight of Favonius."
"Noelle, even if you're not a knight, you can help everyone."
The girl comforted herself inwardly, but the movements of her hands were a little faster.
She cleaned up empty wine glasses one after another, stained tabletops, and unidentified vomit.
When she came to a private room, she found that the door was slightly hidden and not closed.
There were two men talking inside, and one of them had a very familiar voice.
"Thank you, Deputy Commander, thank you so much, if it weren't for you, it would be impossible for that kid in my family to become a Knight of Favonius."
One flattered.
Noelle froze, but a curiosity drove her to continue.
"Hahaha, you don't have to thank me, thank yourself if you want to thank yourself, if you didn't pay the price to make me satisfied..."
Yasion smiled heartily.
"Yes, yes, it's too much trouble for you, but will the replaced knight—" The man's words were a little worried.
"Don't bother, don't worry, that little girl is very stupid, she doesn't know that she was admitted, she still thinks that she is not good enough..."
"Hahaha."
The two laughed more and more presumptuously, but outside the door, Noelle's heart became colder and colder, and some invisible faith was quietly shattered.
The scene in the private room is impressive.
The doppelganger illusion dissipates.
Ye Feng's face blurred for a while, and he changed back to his appearance.
Looking closely, he was the only one in the big room.
Hearing the sound of footsteps far away behind the door, the irritability in Ye Feng's heart became more and more serious.
But now there is no turning back.
He waited for a moment and then chased him out.
It's not close.
......
On the deserted streets, a team of heavily armed knights is patrolling.
There are a lot of people on both sides of the road, and the popularity is gradually recovering.
With the appointment of knights, the Knights of Favonius gradually became fully staffed.
A large number of knights are still in intensive training, and a small number of them have already taken up their posts and are committed to the governance of Mondstadt.
Ye Feng walked all the way, only to find that many businesses had reopened for business.
The willow branches that have grown young leaves on the side of the road sway slightly under the warm breeze of the night, giving people a feeling that the spring breeze is blowing and everything is born.
In just one day, everything seems to be getting better.
But soon, a good-looking young man passed by him.
Ye Feng's face turned cold, and his hand quickly grabbed his wrist:
"It hurts, it hurts, don't, don't, let it go...... Dude, I was wrong! The long-haired young man's face turned pale, his body arched in pain, and he felt that the hand holding his wrist was like an iron hoop, and it was about to be pinched by the other party, and he suddenly knew that he had touched a hard stubble.
Ye Feng reached out and retrieved his wallet from his hand, and then let go of his hand.
"Dude, you don't have much to lose......
Ye Feng was bored in his heart, and said coldly: "Get out!" ”
The young man immediately fled in disgrace, not daring to say a cruel word at all.
Ye Feng exhaled and stared at the other party's departing back.
He didn't wear armor like last time, so the other party didn't know his knightly identity, so he tried to attack him.
After sorting out his emotions, he continued to follow the girl's trail.
From afar, Noelle was in the distance, looking at the starry sky.
"Mr. Honorary Knight." Noticing Ye Feng's arrival, Noelle made a maid salute.
After a moment of silence, Ye Feng spoke.
"Come with me, I can help you more people, help... All of them. ”
"Okay."
Didn't ask why.
Didn't ask where to go either.
Noelle just complied.
