Chapter 32: The Roots of Millennial Hatred

As soon as the conscription contract was drawn up.

The next day, Klober led the men to set up a recruiting point in Mondstadt.

At the same time, a large number of people were sent around to post recruitment leaflets for the winter.

[Rooster] fooled people, and Klober learned it very well.

This is evident in the small leaflets.

It's basically empty talk like joining the Fatui and jointly guarding the mainland.

The profession of guarding the continent is described as extremely magnificent.

At the same time, it also marked the generous treatment in conspicuous large letters.

A full three times higher salary than the Favonius Knights.

And it is possible to advance a month in advance.

The only downside is that you have to go to the Solstice Country, which is thousands of miles away.

However, Klober also thoughtfully stated that he could bring his family with him, and the Fatui would provide them with shelter and work.

Such generous treatment inevitably made the residents of Mondstadt, who had little affection for the Fatui in the first place, still tempted.

As a result, the streets and alleys were full of Mondstadt residents pulling Fatui soldiers to ask this and that.

"Hmph, what a free Mondstadt."

"It's not like you're going to bow down under our mora."

Standing on the top floor of the Goethe Hotel, Klober looked at the lively scene downstairs and sneered at his mustache.

Look again at the Knights of Favonius, who are silent.

Klober laughed even more wildly.

"A bunch of brainless things that only use force to scare people."

"When the master comes, I will kill you all!"

Tuk Tuk Tuk –

Just as Clober fantasized about returning to Solstice to receive his doctor's award, a sharp knock on the door rang out.

Klober smiled, straightened his clothes, and coughed lightly, "Come in." ”

Pushing the door open was a panicked Fatui soldier.

It was also the personal guard who followed Clober.

"My lord, it's not good."

"The Knights of Favonius have suddenly started recruiting like us."

Klober didn't care about this: "Then let them be recruited, under Mora's charm, their name as the Knights of Favonius has a fart." ”

"But, my lord, they paid four times their salary! Other benefits remain the same! ”

The guard said anxiously: "And those who are wavering and have some intentions just now, before they agree, there will be a knight of the west wind who will come out to rob people." ”

“——!”

Clowber was shocked and said angrily, "Are you stupid pigs? Won't drive those Favoniur Knights away? ”

"Do you know what it means to come first and come first, we have a reason to fight! Just knock them out! ”

"But ......" Speaking of this, the pro-soldiers complained even more.

"My lord, those Knights of Favonius have a conscription contract with your and the Inspector General's names on it."

"It says that it is forbidden for both sides to clash."

"We can't say it."

Klober was completely numb at this point.

I thought that if I made a contract, I would be able to recruit the people that the doctor needed.

Unexpectedly, this contract became a stumbling block for himself.

"What about Troy!!"

Clowber exclaimed angrily.

The contract was made by Lin Feng, and he had to come up with a solution!

Although they habitually tear up contracts in the winter, it is based on the time when the force value is stronger.

Now there is only Lin Feng and a full company in Mondstadt.

In the face of the Knights of Favonius, which has the main force, this is no longer a problem of not enough to see, but once they turn their faces, they will inevitably be crushed by the Knights of Favonius with the power of thunder.

"The Inspector went out early in the morning."

"Where did he go!!"

"I don't know."

The guard replied helplessly.

The identity of Klober's personal guard is okay to show off his might to those ordinary Fatui soldiers.

But for a high-ranking official like Lin Feng, who is at the level of inspector general.

They didn't have the status and ability to ask Lin Feng where he was.

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"When the master comes, he'll ravage you damn things to death!!"

Clober yelled with a hideous face, and slammed everything on the table to the ground.

After venting.

His eyes were red and he shouted, "Add money!" Add money! ”

"If it doesn't work three times, it's five times, and if it doesn't work five times, it's ten times!"

"I don't believe it, no matter how rich their Knights of Favonius are, can they be richer than the [rich] adults!"

"Yes." The guards, who had received the order, hurried out.

......

Lin Feng, who is being frantically searched for by Klober.

This will be outside of Mondstadt, leisurely following the guerrilla squad.

The matter of conscription was left to Klober.

He was also left at ease.

The two most critical items in the contract are that force cannot be used or forced conscription.

Under such constraints, with the little manpower that Klober brought, it was impossible to match Falga.

So it's also a hassle to stay in the city, so it's better to come out and see what Eula is doing.

By the way, let's see if I can find a chance to get closer.

With Lin Feng's skills, the guerrilla team couldn't find his trace at all.

They were still the same as usual.

Kill the monsters, rest, eat, and then go to the monsters.

He will not return to the city until the area is completely cleared, or when there are few supplies left.

But it's not the same as before.

Maybe it was the last time she was attacked, and Eula decisively left behind in order to protect everyone.

The members of the guerrilla squad treated her significantly more kindly than before.

Although he can't treat Eula as a close friend like Amber, at least he doesn't speak as badly as he used to.

Eula also had a rare smile.

I will also bring out some of the sweets I made myself to share with everyone.

In particular, the egg rolls made with tomatoes and meat jelly are very popular.

It looks like Eula is finally no longer cloudy all day.

Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh a little.

"If you know that the people of Mondstadt hate Lawrence, it's all behind the Knights of Favonius."

"What should you think?"

Lin Feng had thought about this question in his previous life.

What kind of hatred can make irrelevant people hold grudges for a thousand years, and even extend to innocent heirs?

Until he joined the Dark Ministry of Mondstadt in this life.

He finally had an answer.

There is no hatred that lasts for thousands of years, it's just that someone is behind it.

And this person.

It is Vanessa, the original Lion of the South Wind and the founder of the Knights of Favonius, known as the Liontooth Knight.

This knight who was once oppressed by the aristocracy.

At the beginning of the founding of the Knights of Favonius, an eternal punishment was established for the sinners Lawrence Family.

Sinners who seek to rule over Mondstadt and trample on their freedom will be spurned by Mondstadt for generations to come. 】

In order to fulfill this order.

The Knights of Favonius first added the dark history of the Lawrence family's rule over Mondstadt to children's learning textbooks.

At the same time, he wrote many poems in praise of Vanessa and criticism of the Lawrence family.

Under this two-pronged operation, the hatred of the Lawrence family has been engraved in the hearts of the people of Mondstadt from old to young, and it is still fresh in their memories after thousands of years.

The second move of the Knights of Favonius.

is that every Grand Master will send someone to corrupt the Lawrence family.

Let their family members keep the rotten aristocratic etiquette in their mouths all day long, and cultivate an arrogant temperament and superior thoughts from an early age.

At the same time, it gives them the illusion that one day the Lawrence family can rule Mondstadt again.

This kind of thinking makes the Lawrence family reluctant to work, not thinking about how to alleviate conflicts, and only talking about it every day.

This further exacerbates the conflict between the Lawrence family and the people of Mondstadt.

Today.

The members of the Lawrence family have carved these things into their minds, and even if they don't need to be deliberately guided by the Knights of Favonius, they are already on the same page as the people of Mondstadt.

Until the appearance of the outlier Eula Lawrence.

In fact, in the past thousand years, the Lawrence family has not had such an open-minded person like Eula, who tried to return to Mondstadt in a normal way.

But without exception, they have all been corrupted or cleaned up by the dark lines of the Knights of Favonius.

Only Eula is different.

At a young age, Eula was able to pass the family trials and obtain the seal of ice, the symbol of the Lawrence family's strength.

This strength and talent made Farga love talents.

This is why the knights who later investigated her teachings, urged her to dissociate herself from the family, and the knights' repeated temptations to her.

"There's a chance to go to the Lawrence family and catch those dark lines."

"Let you see what darkness is."

Looking at Eula, who was smiling like a flower, the corners of Lin Feng's mouth also bloomed with a weird smile.
