Chapter 45: The Ruins of the Wind Dragon Again

Three days have passed since the end of the dragon plague.

In three days, the city of Mondstadt returned to its usual hustle and bustle, the originally cut off trade routes were reopened, and because the Knights solved the dragon plague, the city began to celebrate large and small, making the whole city more lively.

At the request of Wang Daoyi and Xiangling, the operation report only stated that two people from Liyue had helped, and did not directly give information about the two.

So the Knights can only hype up the head of the Jean and the honorary knights, and make the two of you the hottest "stars" in the city.

As for Lord Diluc, they don't want to play with the Knights.

In the midst of all the joy in Mondstadt, Wang Daoyi had already said goodbye to Xiangling and went to Dvalin's lair, the ruins of the Wind Dragon.

Three days ago, I got some news from Wendy's side.

Knowing the ruins of the Wind Dragon and the remnants of the Gale Wind Demon God, Wang Dao's heart was already on fire.

It was only because he obtained the Zephyr Secret Archive from the Knights, which gave Wang Daoyi a new source of knowledge, that it was delayed for three days.

It took three days to learn the West Wind Secret Dictionary thoroughly, and Wang Daoyi finally couldn't help but be curious about the Demon God's legacy.

Re-walked the crusade road, familiar to the ruins of the wind dragon.

The wind wall that originally shrouded the entire ruin had been removed by Wendy, so this time Wang Daoyi easily entered the ruins.

The sight of the huge stone bridge is still overlooked, and the towers still stand on the opposite side of the stone bridge.

It's just that, compared to the original tower, the current one seems to be a little more damaged, and it is a rift that was beaten out by the previous battle.

Familiar with the road to the top of the tower.

Follow the staircase at the top of the tower all the way down.

The last time, he didn't look closely because he wanted to stay in combat shape, but this time, he had enough time to study the mural carvings.

At the closest point to the top of the tower, there is a picture of pilgrimage.

A figure shrouded in a hurricane sat on the throne, and below was countless people worshipping him, which seemed extremely solemn, but Wang Daoyi carefully found that in the murals of worship below, some people had already taken up arms.

The murals are very simple and not difficult to read, that is, the people are worshipping their gods, and many ruins have pictures of this kind of worship.

And this kind of people with weapons underneath, coupled with Wendy's poetry of the old people of Mondstadt rebelling against the lone king of the tower,

Obviously, this is the last time the people of Mondstadt worshiped the Gale Wind God.

Wang Daoyi floated beside the West Wind Secret Archive, recorded the mural, and then continued down.

Soon, a second mural appeared in front of him.

It was still a figure shrouded in a hurricane, this time it was not a pilgrimage, a thin villain stood in front of the hurricane-shrouded demon god, as if he was telling something, but the villain's voice was too weak, or rather, the demon god of the gale was too powerful, and he didn't listen to the villain's words.

The people of Mondstadt were begging for freedom from the Gale Wind God!

Although there are no words and no fantasy sounds, Wang Daoyi can directly see the meaning of the mural, that small figure, with an unyielding will.

The Secret Archive of the West Wind flipped rapidly, recording the picture.

Along the way, most of the murals record the worship of the Gale Wind Demon God by the people of Mondstadt, and the higher the place, the more numb the people of Old Mondstadt become, and the people on the murals have almost no color on their faces, and there is no expression.

Arriving in the middle of the tower, Wang Daoyi saw for the first time something other than the old Mondstadt people and Gale Spirit.

It was a group of beasts with heavy hair, like elephants, but with huge sharp teeth, or maybe monsters.

In the mural, warrior-like people carry this beast in triumph, but in addition to the beast, there are more warriors torn apart by the beast.

And above the picture, the demon god of the gale is still shrouded in the hurricane, and seems to be watching them.

Further down, there is a section of the mural that has been completely worn away by time.

But soon a new picture appeared.

Almost every picture is a picture of fighting, resisting, fighting, and the kind of worship to the top of the tower, which is rarely seen.

Wang Daoyi rubbed the mural and thought about the story in the mural.

There is no doubt that he went down from the top of the tower, so the mural stories he saw were all from modern times to ancient times, and the higher the place, the closer to the present era.

Rearrange the murals that have been rubbed back in chronological order, and a relatively complete timeline will be obtained.

The people of Mondstadt fought against the Storm Beasts, and the Gale Demon God watched over them, and the Old Mondstadt people suffered a steady stream of casualties, until one day, the Gale Demon God blew a never-ending tornado that enveloped the Tower area.

Blizzards and beasts were unable to break through the tornado of the Gale Spirit, and the former people of Mondstadt in the Tower were blessed by the Gale God.

In the old days, the people of Mondstadt recognized the protection of the Gale Wind God, and worshipped and sacrificed to the Gale God.

I don't know how long it has been, but the free will within the people of Mondstadt has awakened, and they can't stand the stagnant winds and beg for freedom from the Gale Wind God.

At this time, the people of Old Mondstadt were not ready to rebel, but the Gale Wind God refused their pleas.

Wang Daoyi didn't know how the two sides communicated, but after looking at the mural, Wang Daoyi felt that the Gale Demon God did not want to deprive his people of their freedom, but because the Gale Demon God thought that he was protecting these people.

As for the Gale Wind God's protection, it is to cover the tower with his never-ending tornado, cutting off wild beasts and snow.

Perhaps in the eyes of the Gale Wind God, the so-called freedom represents danger, and his duty is to keep his people away from danger.

In this way, a demon god who protects his people and a group of people who were originally blessed by the demon god are completely opposed because of different ideas.

[God always loves people, but people do not necessarily receive God's love!] 】

Wendy's words appeared in Wang Daoyi's heart again, and for the first time, he had a new understanding of the demon god of Teyvat.

Continuing on, at last, Wang Daoyi saw the first encounter between the people of Mondstadt and the Gale Demon God.

It was a blizzard that destroyed the tribe.

Orphaned by tribes, people who have lost their homes roam the land of Mondstadt, once full of snow and wild beasts,

They walked through snowy fields, crossed glaciers, wrestled wild beasts, and took their lives against heaven and earth

Finally, after crossing a canyon, they found a canyon where they could hide from the wind and snow, the ruins of the old wind dragon, which at that time was not called by that name.

The ancestors who came here gave this place a name, called the place where the wind and snow stopped.

And here, for the first time, they came into contact with one of the greatest beings in this world, the Demon God of Gale, Decarapian.

The ancestors offered sacrifices to the demon gods, hoping that the demon gods would protect them and allow them to recuperate.

The reclusive demon god was sacrificed for the first time, and he did not respond to these weak humans, but also tacitly agreed to live on their own territory.

Since then, the ancient ancestors have bonded with this demon god, and the millennia of the old Mondstadt era began.
