With the status of a god and the double guarantee of Barbatos, Nahida easily gained command of the Knights of Favonius.

That's a good thing.

No one can persuade Qin, and there is no way to persuade him.

"There is no cost for the Order to do this."

Jean herself knew very well, "The Knights of Favonius have no way to shelter Mondstadt, and if they want to, they will always be able to find innocent people in Mondstadt." ”

Then catch two today, and throw back two rounds of corpses at the Mondstadt Bridge tomorrow.

This kind of behavior goes on without interruption, and it can completely collapse the piano.

The cost is to find a place like Qingquan Town that has no formal defenses, and then let the Abyss Mage walk around.

If it weren't for the appearance of Brother Kong, what was thrown there would not have been a few severed fingers, but a real corpse and head.

However, for Jean, the threats of the two are actually similar enough.

The Knights of Favonius hadn't noticed it yet, and they had a headache with the Order's elusiveness, and they couldn't find the tail at all.

Arriving at the Order's quarters, Nahida sat at the top and listened to the questions Jean described.

"That's a bit of a problem." The plan is not complicated, and it is only a little troublesome to crack, "The conditions for them to find people are quite obvious, to capture a certain number of Mondstadt people at the minimum cost, and to deter the Mondstivets through multiple and non-stop operations." ”

This is also the reason why Amber was complained.

They were nervous, and Amber, as the Knight of Favonius, didn't always surround them to protect them, but was able to sneak out of his spare time to post some missing person notice.

If you're busy, it's a sign you're not busy enough!

To be reasonable, their panic is excusable, and their judgment is ······ Well, it can only be said that wonderful judgment, discharge, must be discharged immediately!

"Because I'm threatening you as a [Mondstadt], I don't need to specifically arrest people like Amber and Klee, just ordinary people are enough."

Ordinary people are easy to catch, and people like Amber do have a special attack on Jean, but Jean's defense in this area is not high in the first place, and the effect of a few random Mondstadt people is also very good.

Since the effect is good, there is no need to specifically catch these tricky people.

"The trouble is that you can't defend against the Order's plans." Nahida subconsciously relieved, "But it's not the Knights of Favonius' fault. ”

"In Sumeru, we can't protect every Sumeru person."

"Your kindness is not a problem anymore, what is really problematic is these evil people who take advantage of your kindness."

This can only be used in Mondstadt.

In Liyue, the Seven Stars knew it was impossible to compromise.

Changed to Inazuma, if one of the three commissioners cares about this kind of thing, in the end, he will not rely on Brother Kong's single sword Thunderbolt General in the plot.

As for today's Sumeru······ It's a joke, how could Rama eat this set.

He'll even backhand the Order a list of people he doesn't really like, telling the Order that I'm going to loosen up my defenses here, and you can go and pinch them overnight.

It's not that Jean doesn't know the problem, she does, and she still gets hit.

Nahida didn't think it was Jean's problem.

This kind of problem has always been only to blame the bad guys, not to blame the good people of a person.

She risked her own life, and it was not for the generosity of others, and of course Nahida wanted to comfort this good boy.

If it weren't for the fact that Gunnhild was a great nobleman in Mondstadt, he would have wanted to kidnap this man back to Sumeru.

But just think about it.

She was the future head of the Knights in Mondstadt, and after the newly stabilized Sumeru, power was divided between the rainforest and the desert, and she came to delay the future of the family.

Diluc wanted to sigh a little.

Recall Diluc, Barbatos sheltered the people of Mondstadt many times, only this time he exposed the fact that he was an alcoholic.

But you can't forget Barbatos' protection of the people of Mondstadt just because of a word of relief from an alien god!

"There's no hope in defending passively, so we can only choose to attack."

"At this time, I want you to consider the Fatui deal." Nahida looked at Jean, "The Fatui have a bad reputation, but they're actually good partners. ”

He probably understood the whole thing.

If you want to borrow Barbatos' power, you must first help the Knights of Favonius solve their troubles.

"With your apparent possibility, possibly posing any threat to the Order's plans," Nahida looked serious, "your strength is not enough. ”

"But the Order has to target you, if it's not Jean who is in trouble, it's Jean Gunnhilde, or Jean, the acting head of the Knights of Favonius."

First and last name, the surname represents the common background most of the time, and the first name is the personal value.

If the personal value is not enough, then the background must be brought out.

The words were quite straightforward, almost saying that the Order must have a plan, and they need to use the qin to draw the energy of the Knights of Favonius.

"Is this a choice?"

Jean pursed her lips, looking a little embarrassed.

"It's forcing you to make a choice." Nahida glanced at the last remaining elite of the Order.

There was even a Diluc who was not a knight and a nun who was hiding above the garrison and eavesdropping.

This is the only elite left of the Knights, who can use it a little.

Falgar ······ That Grand Master could not have been such an unwise man.

What compelled him to embark on an expedition?

Nahida lowered her eyes, "They're going to use a few ordinary people to hang the piano and force you to compromise." ”

"The condition of the deal is that as long as Jean goes alone, they will immediately let these ordinary people back."

"So, you're going to let the acting head really go alone?"

No one responded.

They thought it was a bad deal from the start.

Everyone present, including Jean and Nahida, knew very well that the kidnapped Mondstadt people were dead when they died, and even if they were combined, it was impossible for Jean to be "valuable" alone.

The problem is that they're not dead.

The Order keeps catching new unlucky ones, but all they send back are stumps and severed arms, which means they don't kill them.

These people can die to preach hatred and then push for revenge.

But they didn't die, and the number of wounded is expanding.

Everyone can see that the Order is just waiting for the piano to take the bait.

The piano can't be carried, and neither can the people of Mondstadt.

In their usual spirit of freedom, they began to preach in Mondstadt that the Order's goal was only for Jean, and that they were innocently involved.

Jean, the Knights of Favonius should be held responsible.

This kind of rhetoric is actually quite shameful, but they have nothing to say, including Diluc and Kaeya.

Because it's true.

The people of Mondstadt pay their taxes to the Order of Favonius every year, and they have not enjoyed the power of being a master and fulfilled their obligations as Mondstadt, but now the Knights of Favonius cannot even keep them safe.

This is no longer a problem for the people of Mondstadt.

Everywhere it goes, it's all a matter of the Knights of Favonius.

The people have done nothing, but they are threatened with death, and in any case, the Knights of Favonius should bear this black cauldron.

"Time for the Order should be running out."

"Their actions are clearly aimed at drawing away the Knights' already small defensive forces, which means that their plan needs to temporarily withdraw the Knights."

Nahida paused, "We all know that the Order is not good, and the consequences of the plan they want to accomplish by such means are very painful. ”

"The good thing is that the choice of things is actually in our hands."

"So, make your choice."

Nahida looked at Jean.

It's all about you, but in fact, only the piano needs to be considered.

"Abandon these captured people, and the people of Mondstadt who will be captured next, reject the Order's inducements, and focus on stopping the Order's plans."

"Obey the Order's plan, come alone as promised, and let these people worry about you."

Qin's face was pale: "I'll get everyone's attention, right?" ”

"Not everyone, but according to the principles taught to me by the great sage, there are actually a few people who do things, and the routine of most people is obedience." Nahida shook her head, "But it's the same thing, as long as your attention is distracted, I don't think the people of Mondstadt will be able to stand up to the Order's machination. ”

In fact, Rama's experience was not cruel enough.

Referring to the Demon God Wars, most people's routine is actually to survive.

The outcome of the war has nothing to do with them, if the demon god wins, then everyone will win.

If everyone's god loses, then he loses.

The Knights of Favonius didn't have Jean as the conductor, so it would be nice if they could do their job.

It is almost impossible to expect them to fill in the gaps and stop the Order's plots.

"And what about your choice?" Nahida asked.

Whatever choice the Order makes, it will be the same for Nahida.

He needed Barbatos' help, so he chose to help the Knights of Favonius.

But the piano is different.

Silent Jean looked at each of her old friends, who had given her enough confidence in the past, enough to give every Mondstadt the confidence to live in peace.

But when the war really came, she realized that it was not enough.

No one staggered their gaze.

There are no pendulums and actors in this matter, they have all done their best, but they can't solve the problem.

"Of course, that's all there is to choose from, but you can choose to work with the Fatui." Again, Nahida stressed, "You seem to be very resistant to the Fatui, and even though both of these choices turn out badly, you have not considered the Fatui ······"

He had reminded him before.

The power of the Knights of Favonius alone cannot do anything.

Just throw the pot to Falga, after all, he is the head of the regiment and has a natural responsibility.

But Mondstadt isn't the only one on the continent.

The strength of the people of Mondstadt is not enough, so look for foreign help.

This time, all eyes were on Diluc.

The owner of the winery lowered his eyes, but he couldn't easily say the words, "I don't mind if it helps Mondstadt."

Jean took the initiative to take the responsibility: "There is some hatred between Mondstadt and the Fatui, and I am afraid that we will not be able to reach any friendly cooperation. ”

Nahida tilted her head.

Isn't cooperation only based on the cooperation qualifications of the other party? It doesn't seem to matter what your relationship is with the other person.

If you feel that the other party is not very good, then find a way to betray the other party in the process of cooperation and make the other party pay a greater price.

How can you give up relying on the other person's strength because you feel that the other person is not good?

That's not a good idea.

"There is still time, you can think about it slowly without having to give an answer on the spot."

"Even if we find foreign help, we still have to make other plans."

"This requires you to provide some 'free' Mondstadt."

Kaeya had long had the idea of "trying to do it once and for all by locating where they were missing and then finding where the Order was stationed." ”

Compromise won't solve anything.

Either promise that compromise will solve the problem this time, or you can only compromise at all.

"Just plant the markers and I can find their location." Nahida was confident, "Even if they lock people in a secret place where the leylines are concentrated, I can locate them. ”

Finding the enemy's lair and killing them all at once is also a good solution.

There is only one problem with this plan.

Even if you find the nest, you can't actually beat it.

Well, that's a bit embarrassing.

You've caught the guy behind the scenes, and you're confident enough to tell him that a conspiracy isn't a good thing.

Then the other party pressed you to the ground with a set of silky small combos, and said calmly, "I have been taught below, and I will definitely use my fists in the future, and I will not play any conspiracy."

At this point, the awkward part comes, you may have to lie down and beg the other person to go back and play with his machinations.

At least the latter can throw their powerlessness at the insidious cunning of the other side.

But if it is run over by hard power, the sense of powerlessness is too strong.

The Order is not easy to deal with.

It's like you're tracking down a Fatui camp, even if you do find their lair?

Have you beaten the Girls, the Doctors, the Harlequins, the Executives, or the Ice Empress who supported them behind the scenes?

There's really no need to find it.

The benefits are obvious, but so are the risks.

But this is Mondstadt, and it's the Knights of Favonius who will be on the adventure, if Barbatos is really like an alcoholic, indulging in drinks, regardless of these things.

Nahida could only try to make a deal with the Order.

The gods of Mondstadt don't care, so what can he, a god of Sumeru, do?

"No, you have a point." Diluc muttered, "The winery can offer some free Mondstadt, but I'm not sure the Order will capture them. ”

"I can plant a tag for a lot of people, you don't have to worry about that." "As long as one is chosen, I can get all the coordinates." ”

This includes passing through the other person's body and descending directly into the Order's temporary lair.

It's all part of the power of the grass god.

Of the four gods, only the power of the god of grass has little to do with the power of the grass element.

The true power of the Grass Gods is the Dream Realm, the World Tree, but not their Grass Elemental Power.

"But they can't be too free." Kaeya reminded, "It's a time when everyone is at risk, and if someone else runs out casually, it's too obvious." ”

"They'll have a reason to leave Mondstadt." Diluc clenched his right hand, "As for the Fatui······ I have no opinion. ”

"Then let me communicate with them." Lisa lowered the brim of her mage's hat and looked calm, "We should be natural allies when it comes to dealing with the Order. ”

This method can be used in that country, let alone a human armed force like the Knights of Favonius, even if it is the Seven Archons, there are places that cannot be reached by power.

It's a special attack on Mondstadt.

Their gods are not able to wield their powers at will, and their leader is too much like a knight.

The effect is relatively average in other countries, but it is absolutely enough for disgusting people.

"Well, we'll have to wait." Nahida whispered reassuringly, "Rest assured, the wounded will always be more useful than the dead until the real plan is revealed." ”

"You can rest assured, the Order may hurt people, but it won't kill people for the time being."

To be precise, it will not be killed in large quantities.

But to be reasonable, they can't use the false deterrence of stumps and broken arms every day, and the effect of sending two or three dead people is much better.

If that were the case, Jean might not have made it to Mondstadt.

So, what made them choose to only hurt but not kill?

Nahida was lost in thought.

But he really couldn't find an answer to this.

This was different from the Order's previous actions, as if because of some external force, they suddenly did not dare to expose their most murderous side.

But who has the power to force the Order to rein in its fangs?

Nahida couldn't find an answer.

He vaguely sensed that this might be a crucial piece of news, but he didn't have any clues.

Once the rough plan was finalized, Nahida didn't need to do the rest of the details to fill in.

More precisely, when He was sitting here, He had already had a great effect.

Having the protection of the gods and sleeping of the gods are two different situations, the former gives them enough confidence to take various actions.

Although the god of grass was not their god of Mondstadt, Diluc had also said that the god of wind was in his tavern at the moment······ Open.

With two gods in Mondstadt at the same time, there is a lot of room for manoeuvre.

"Captain Jean, the Honorary Knight has something to report to you."

Amber bursts in.

The furious girl habitually pushed the door in, only to find that the situation seemed to be different from what she was used to knowing.

How can there be so many people?

The acting captain, the librarian, the cavalry captain, and this Lord Diluc······

The trembling girl realized that she seemed to have broken into something unusual.

"Ask him to come in." Jean waved her hand.
