Chapter 60: Black Mud

"Oh, I finally got the hamster back."

The woman walked towards Wendy with one hand on her waist, looking calm and unhurried, as if she didn't take the other party into account at all.

Her eyes were disdainful, but there was a hint of resentment hidden in the depths.

Wendy's legs in front of Sasuke were also covered with ice, and he struggled from side to side, but he couldn't seem to get out.

The woman walked up to Wendy, pinched Wendy's jaw contemptuously with one hand, and looked condescendingly into Wendy's eyes.

"Gnawing on stakes, biting on rice bags, causing so much trouble for Mondstadt."

Wendy, who was pinched, didn't seem to have any intention of resisting, but just shot back:

"You're not talking about hamsters, you're talking about rats."

"Smack!"

A crisp slap was given to Wendy's face.

"Oh, there's no place for you to speak now, unreasonable bard."

Seeing Wendy being humiliated like this, Susa on Sasuke's body became more solid, and he wanted to fight back, but he suddenly felt his body being lifted up by a gust of wind and drifted backwards uncontrollably.

Wendy stopped his actions? Why? What does he want to do?

Sasuke was completely confused by Wendy's behavior at this time, but he heard Wendy's voice appear in his heart, just like he had when he first fought Dvalin.

"Sasuke, don't meddle, it's between us."

Seeing that Wendy just blew Sasuke away, but she couldn't break free at all, the woman's tone became even more contemptuous.

"Oh, ridiculous, to give up the god of Mondstadt, that's all that's left ......"

Wendy looked up at the other party.

"Oh? Do you laugh at my capital, which is the power borrowed from the master? ”

This sentence directly made the woman's color change, and a palm containing rich ice elemental power slapped towards Wendy's abdomen.

"Flim Flam."

A wave of qi emanated from Wendy's back, and a blue-blue chess piece-like object was pulled out of his belly and appeared in the woman's hand.

"This is the heart of God?"

"Hmph, that's just it, it's far less than the gorgeous chess set I treasured."

Sasuke looked at Wendy, who was lying on the ground at this time, looking embarrassed, but found a clue.

His braids were not shiny.

In the past, when Wendy used skills or bestowed the blessing of a thousand winds, his hair would glow brightly, but now there is no trace of light.

Is it because it's out of force? No, it shouldn't be, when Wendy blew him back before, it was clear that the braids were still lit up, but now why didn't he move?

Coupled with what Wendy just told him, was this intentional on the part of Wendy?

Sasuke wasn't sure, but he followed Wendy's wishes first, and just used Susa to protect Paimon to the death, so that she would not be affected.

At this time, Wendy, who was lying on the ground, had a very painful expression, but still mocked:

"Probably because of your aesthetics, it's really bad, right?"

The woman, who had already obtained the Heart of God and was about to leave, heard Wendy's words, turned around and came back to give Wendy who was lying on the ground a kick, kicking him to the ground and rolling several times before stopping.

This woman is so ruthless......

Sasuke's fists clenched, if the woman was going to continue humiliating Wendy like this, even if Wendy wasn't going to let him intervene, he was going to teach her a lesson.

As if noticing a movement on Sasuke's side, the woman's gaze came.

"Oh? Interesting ability ......"

"Forget it, the Heart of God is already in hand anyway."

She waved her hand and said to the rest of the Fatui beside her:

"Let's go, while the Knights haven't arrived yet, don't leave anything behind."

She disappeared into the shadows again with her men.

When they were gone, Wendy, who had just seemed to be knocked unconscious by kicking, suddenly stood up, patted the dust off his body, and then used the breeze to blow away the ice cubes from Paimon's body.

"I'm sorry to implicate you in strange things."

Paimon, who had escaped from the ice, quickly floated behind Sasuke, and the whole person stuck to Sasuke's body, feeling the warmth transmitted by Sasuke.

"Whew...... I froze to death, and I almost thought I was going to turn into a chilled Paimon. ”

"What the hell is going on, Wendy, and what do I mean by what God Heart I just saw she take from you?"

Sasuke lifted Susa and asked Wendy.

Wendy smiled wryly.

"It's more troublesome to explain, let's go and say that the wind is rising, don't cause too much movement in the city."

Thousand Winds lifted Sasuke up and left Mondstadt all the way to the familiar tree.

Coming to the big tree in the windy land, Wendy held the trunk with one hand, and her body was slightly shiny.

Sasuke only then noticed that there was a wound in his abdomen that was healing rapidly.

"Wendy, you really like this place."

Paimon said as he looked at Wendy, who had his eyes closed.

"yes, the wind between the trees is good, and it smells like it."

"As for your doubts, Sasuke, this is not a topic that can be talked about with ordinary people, but it doesn't matter if you are quietly told."

The light on Wendy's body dissipated and she sat down cross-legged.

"The Heart of God is a prop for the Seven Consuls to communicate with Sky Island, and as for Sky Island, it is the place where the Heart of the Seven Consuls is distributed."

"So, who is the bad woman who froze me and almost blew me away when we met just now, and snatched Wendy's God's Heart?"

Wendy seemed to fall into a memory, and then said slowly:

"Her former name was Rosalyn Cruzhika Lohfaat, and now she should be called Madam, the eighth seat of the Fatui Eleven Executive, codenamed Madame."

"Every executive of the Fatui is like her, who has been given godlike authority by the Empress of the Solstice Kingdom, and has gained power beyond mortals."

"The Empress of Solstice? Is it the god of the Solstice? ”

Sasuke asked.

"Yes."

Wendy nodded.

"So the one who came to take away your God's Heart is actually the god of the Solstice Kingdom?"

"Yes."

Wendy sighed.

"Five hundred years ago, she cut off contact with me, and now she ...... It seems that the events of five hundred years ago really had a great impact on her. ”

"Five hundred years ago? What's up? ”

Sasuke wondered.

Wendy looked up slightly and didn't answer.

Sasuke frowned, Wendy clearly didn't want to give him an answer to this question.

Combined with what Wendy said before, Sky Island, the heart of God......

Judging from the fact that Wendy did not resist and handed over the heart of God so easily, it is obvious that he acquiesced to the behavior of the gods of the Winter Kingdom, which is considered half-pushed, and this must have something to do with what happened in Wendy's mouth five hundred years ago, but he didn't continue.

What is this for?

Is there anything that the gods are afraid of?

Sasuke was confused, this matter involved the gods, and there was Sky Island that was higher than the god level...... This kind of event, which is comparable to a mythical story, is not something that such a shinobi as him can participate in at all.

Sasuke opened his mouth and wanted to continue to ask, but without warning, a cloud of black mud appeared on the bottom of his feet, and the chakra in his body was passing at a terrifying speed.

His body was completely unable to move, and Sasuke could only watch as the power in his body was quickly drained.

At that moment, a girl with blonde hair and dressed in a completely different costume from Mondstadt's style walked slowly towards him.

"Finally found you, and you helped him sabotage my plans?"

The girl asked as she turned to Sasuke.
