Chapter 70: Accidents
"Ying, let's start quickly, the reward for entrusting Master Diluc to us this time is very generous."
"Eh, Paimon, don't shake my arm, it's too bad, all the elemental bait Diluc gave us has been shaken and scattered to the ground..."
As soon as the elemental bait landed, the rich ice element immediately emitted to the surroundings, and the slimes, who had always been sensitive to elemental power, immediately discovered the elemental bait, and the slimes of various elements rushed towards the location of the elemental bait.
Seeing the slimes of different sizes and elements rushing over not far away, Paimon scratched her head, she seemed to be in trouble again, and she didn't know if the people of the Knights could solve it, they shouldn't be as unbearable as Lord Diluc said, right? Right?
"Don't be scared, hurry up and go to the Angel's Gift to find Diluc, these slimes and other elemental baits will naturally disperse when they dissipate."
Seeing Paimon stunned in place, Ying pulled Paimon's gift to the angel and ran, this elemental bait was not very effective, and if it wasted time, it was very likely that it would be detected.
As soon as she stepped through the door of the Angel's Gift, Ying saw Hoffman drinking dandelion wine at the bar, and sure enough, someone in the Knights suspected that Diluc was the Night Hero, but fortunately she had already put down the elemental bait, and as long as she followed the plan, Diluc should not be exposed.
Ying sighed in her heart that Diluc's preparation was sufficient, and asked Diluc for two glasses of juice without changing her face, which would be too weird if she didn't order a drink at this time.
As Diluc prepares the juice for Ying and Paimon, the Angel's Gift Gate is pushed open again, and Ying and the others think they will come to report that a lot of Slime Favonius have gathered in front of the city gate, but it is a guy with a hat who walks in.
"Ying, isn't this guy the Sumeru man who was greeted by the head of the Qin troupe at that time, it seems that his name is Cyno, and it was this guy who made our banquet postpone, it's really hateful."
Seeing one of the culprits who made the banquet postponed, I don't know why Paimon always felt that this guy named Cyno might catch her and Ying in the future, Paimon shrunk his neck and whispered bad things about Cyno.
"Now is not the time to say that, and hopefully this guy won't have any impact on our plans."
Ying looked at Cyno, who asked for a glass of dandelion wine and looked like she was going to taste the wine here, she was a little apprehensive in her heart, the plan had already begun, even if she was uncertain, she couldn't pause it, and she didn't know if Diluc had any way.
"Mr. Hoffman, no, it's not good, there are a lot of slimes out there, go check it out."
"Slime? Can't you solve this kind of thing? ”
Hoffman frowned, and when Captain Kaeya told him to keep an eye on Boss Diluc in Angel's Gift tonight, he suspected that Boss Diluc was most likely the Night Hero.
While you're testing my guesses, you're telling me to get out of here and deal with the slimes? The current newcomers of the Knights are really not as good as the generation, and they are so flustered when they meet a slime, how to deal with other enemies in the future, Hoffman glared at the Knight of Favonius who reported the news, and he felt that it was time to train the newcomers in the Knights.
"No, it's not, there are too many slimes outside, and there are several wind slimes that have been diffusing with other elemental slimes, and our rookie knights can't get close without bows and arrows."
Ah this, the rookie knight's words made Hoffman hesitate a little, at this time, according to the rules, he should immediately deal with those slimes, but he was unwilling to give up this opportunity, he looked at Ying, and then at Cyno who was drinking on the side, and finally put his eyes on Cyno.
"Mr. Gale Chronicle, can you go and talk to the side?"
Seeing that Hoffman was wearing the armor of the Knight of Favonius, Cyno nodded and followed Hoffman to a corner of the tavern, where Hoffman said sincerely.
"Well, can you ask the Gale Chronicler for a favor?"
"Okay, are you going to clean up those slimes?"
Hearing the knight's words just now, Cyno subconsciously thought that Hoffman wanted to ask him to help deal with those slimes, Hoffman shook his head and said in a low voice.
"No, no, no, you're a guest from Sumeru, I'll do this kind of thing, I'll trouble you to help me keep an eye on Boss Diluc, if he leaves halfway, please tell me when I come back."
"yes, I see."
Cyno glanced at Ying, who was listening with his ears pricked up, Hoffman's request was not a difficult matter, plus Cyno and other wind officials now have asked the people of the Knights to help investigate some things, this little favor Cyno is happy to help.
After giving Cyno a standard knightly salute, Hoffman hurriedly left the angel's gift with the knight who came to report the news, and Ying, who overheard Hoffman's conversation with Cyno, looked a little anxious, he meowed, this hateful Sumeru, this is cutting off her financial route, wait for her, and when she becomes stronger, she will not have good fruit to eat.
With Cyno in mind, the guy who caused trouble for her commission, Ying can only pray that Diluc has another way, there are a lot of monsters to fight with Diluc tonight, and she may not be able to deal with it alone.
In the bar, unlike the anxious Ying and Paimon, Diluc was still standing there expressionlessly wiping the glass without showing any panic, and Kaeya, who had been observing on the second floor of the tavern, frowned, could it be that this brother of his had discovered him and was going to let him deal with those monsters?
No, he had skipped the afternoon shift and even interrogated the nobles to the others, so that he could go to the second floor of the tavern early to hide and observe Diluc, and his brother could not have discovered him, could it be that the situation was also in his calculations now?
Although Diluc mostly uses force to solve problems and rarely uses stratagem, Kaeya doesn't think Diluc is a reckless man, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered so much at Diluc's hands, he's meow, this guy must have a backhand.
It can only be said that Kaeya is worthy of being the person who knows Diluc best, and within a few seconds of his imagination, Ruo Ban pushed the door and entered the angel's gift, and when he saw Ruo Ban walking in, Diluc wiped his hand from the cup and said to Ruo Ban casually.
"I'm running out of apples for juice, so help me buy some if you have time."
"Apple, okay, I'm fine."
If you squint at Cyno sitting at the bar, this guy should be one of the things that Diluc told him, if it wasn't for Diluc who greeted him in advance and asked him to come to the angel's gift at night, then Diluc's identity as a hero of the night would definitely be exposed.
Ruo Ban and Diluc's seemingly sparse and ordinary conversation made Ying's eyes light up, worthy of Diluc, he actually brought Ruo Ban here, so there should be no problem with the monsters outside.
Kaeya on the second floor had the same idea as Ying, but he didn't expect that the relationship between Diluc and Ruoban would be so good, and Kaeya wanted to jump out from the second floor to see if Diluc's back hand was in danger, and now, it was better to drink and drink.
