The sun was setting in the west, and there was a red sunset in the distance.

Stormterror hasn't been seen in a while since the last time he was injured.

The streets are gradually returning to their usual busyness, with the city gates being filled with wagons and businesses on both sides, and Mondstadt is recovering from the shadows of the dragon plague.

……

Ye Feng does not have a fixed residence.

In the evenings, sometimes in the private offices of the Order, sometimes in the random hotels on the side of the road.

Back in the makeshift hotel, he had just had dinner when he was called to a meeting by a knight of the Order.

I didn't have time to clean up, so I just washed my face and walked towards the knights again.

"Honorary Knight, this way, please..."

Under the leadership of the knight, Ye Feng came to a huge conference room that was large enough to accommodate more than 10,000 people.

When I walked to the large conference room, I found that there were already a lot of knights inside, and there were about four or five hundred people, all of whom were relatively familiar faces.

At the very front of his seat, he found his place.

Coincidentally, the deputy commander's seat was next to him.

Before everyone could get there, he stood up and left the room.

When he came back again, he and the deputy head of the regiment walked in almost one after the other.

"Yo, meet again."

After taking a seat, Kaeya next to him took the lead in greeting.

Ye Feng nodded, and then closed his eyes and recuperated.

Kaeya leaned back in her chair with her hands behind her head, looking cynical.

After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, all the knights of the Order arrived one after another, and it was not long before the pale Jean walked up to the high platform.

Ye Feng opened her eyes and keenly noticed that her injuries had obviously not healed, and her steps were a little vain.

In fact, according to Barbara's healing magic and Jean's own strong physique, as long as she meditates and recuperates for a while, she may have recovered long ago.

But the piano couldn't stop.

She has to do everything herself, she has no time to recuperate, and her physical injuries are also delayed again and again.

Jean first announced the successful conclusion of the knight's examination and the basic end of the training.

All the knights have undergone a certain amount of training and have the basic strength to fight monsters.

At the end of the meeting, Jean sighed, "Mondstadt is finally a little stronger, but the sacrifice of the knights cannot be forgotten. ”

"In this crisis, it is thanks to your efforts that Mondstadt has survived."

"May the wind shelter you."

The audience burst into warm applause.

Ye Feng slapped his face boringly, and his thoughts were tumbling in his heart.

It's already at this juncture, and after having such a strong strength, you still want to escape...

Now it seems that Diluc's perception of the Knights is not unreasonable.

Weak, just too weak.

Qin's gaze looked downward, noticing the contemplative Ye Feng, and invited:

"Honorary Knight, would you like to say a few words?"

Ye Feng was stunned and nodded: "Okay." ”

He walked up to the stage and shot everyone in the audience.

The knights, clad in bright white armor, sat together.

noticed that Ye Feng came to the stage, and the scene resounded with thunderous applause.

After a few moments, the applause subsided.

"I won't introduce myself, I believe everyone knows something about me."

Although Ye Feng's voice was not loud, it was clear enough.

"I agree with Captain Qin's statement that disaster strikes, and we must unite and face it together in order to overcome the crisis."

"But.

That doesn't mean we have to be beaten.

We need to deal with this, and we must no longer be human punchbags and be bullied! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a noisy sound at the scene.

Jean's brow furrowed, a little displeased.

Ye Feng glanced at everyone again, and the conference room instantly fell silent.

Today's Knights of Favonius, among the more than 10,000 Knights of Favonius, old knights account for only a small proportion.

Most of them were newly appointed knights.

And in the eyes of the newly appointed knight, even if his status as an honorary knight is not as good as that of Captain Qin, there will not be much difference.

There is a certain weight to what he said.

"I was there on the day of Stormterror's attack, and I saw too many knights who had died."

Ye Feng's expression was heavy, evoking deep memories in the hearts of the knights.

"I've checked the relevant information, since the appearance of the dragon, hundreds of knights have been killed in the dragon plague, and the civilian death toll has exceeded 50,000, and the number of missing, injured, and property damage is impossible to count, and it has caused a serious disaster and a huge threat to Mondstadt."

"These people are living beings."

"In the past, we were weak, and we didn't have the ability to deal with the dragon plague, but now, it is still unknown who will kill the deer."

His speech was resounding.

"I have a dream..."

"I want the inhabitants of Mondstadt to live and work in peace, I want the knights of Mondstadt to stop dying due to the dragon plague, and I want the people of Mondstadt to suffer again."

"So I propose to raise an army and declare war on the dragons."

"If war starts, I will swear as a knight of honor, and I will lead the charge and fight to the death until the last drop of blood in my body is drained."

"I'm done, thank you."

Ye Feng stepped off the stage and left the conference room.

The scene of dead silence was left, and the knights who looked at each other and ignited the blood in their chests.

Bang.

After only a few seconds of silence, the scene was instantly ignited.

Each of the knights unconsciously stood up, looked at the piano on the high platform with eager eyes.

"Give the order, Captain Jean!"

"The Knight of Honor is right, we need revenge!"

"To protect Mondstadt!"

......

"No, no, absolutely not." Jean's face became more and more pale, and he refused categorically.

"You have no idea how much damage the war will be when it comes, and Mondstadt simply can't afford to withstand the aftermath of it."

"War will take away everything you cherish, everything you have, and it will destroy Mondstadt and destroy everyone."

"Please calm down and wait for the future, I promise you that a solution to the dragon plague will be found."

Jean persuaded anxiously.

It was the first time she felt that things were going a little more than she had imagined.

I thought that when I met the traveler in the afternoon, I would find a turning point to solve the dragon plague, but I didn't expect that the knights would take the lead in attacking.

She regretted a little in her heart, why did she let that honorary knight give a speech on stage?

She was a clever man, and soon realized that her words did not have much effect, and the knights were still furious.

No one wants to be slaughtered.

They've had enough of the dragon plague in Mondstadt.

Jean quickly responded, and her eyes gestured to her most trusted subordinate.

The corners of Kaeya's mouth twitched.

He was a little helpless, and when he wanted to get up, the deputy head of the regiment on the side waved his hand to stop him.

"Deputy Head of Yasion, who are you?"

Yasien smiled: "Captain Qin, since everyone's opinions are different, why don't we hold a vote." ”

"Knights above the squad leader are eligible to vote, and in the end, we will decide according to the results, how about it?"

Jean bit her lip and hesitated.

But realizing that public opinion is unstoppable, and that Mondstadt is not her own word, it is difficult for her to force down the emotions ignited by the knights.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally nodded in agreement.

......

After the Knights were recruited, the squad was expanded.

In the team of more than 10,000 people, there are a total of 149 squad leaders.

This is the number of votes that have just been counted after several hours.

The results of the vote were not long in coming.

74 to 74.

Jean's heart almost rose to her throat.

The difference of one vote will determine whether Mondstadt will be in heaven or hell next.

Fortunately, Jean had just learned that the last vote was in the hands of Deputy Head Yasion.
