Chapter 227: 3 Cities Unified 1, The Conflict between the Lonely King and Freedom
The sun and the moon rise and fall, and the long river of time flows downward at a constant speed. It has been nearly 50 years since the start of the Demon War.
Mondstadt, District 1 of the Free City, in the Mora Bank Manor.
Ducas was writing a letter with a feather pen in his fingers, while Carlo, who was assisting him, was also busy reviewing the documents.
Just as the two were sitting at their desks writing furiously, the door of the studio opened and Vanilari, dressed in a knight's ceremonial uniform, walked in and knocked on the door.
The two captains of the Grand Knights who were working raised their heads, looking at the tall girl with long blue-white hair in front of them with calm eyes.
Ducas put down the quill in his hand, and with his eyes shining like flames, he reflected the girl's face and asked calmly:
"Ms. Vanilare, has the mission been handed over?"
Listening to Dicas's question, Vanilari stretched out his hand to touch his hair and said with a somewhat indifferent expression:
"There is no need to worry, Mr. Ducas. The mission has been completed. My sphere of influence is getting weaker and weaker now. With the help of the family that joined us a year ago, the intelligence we can use is already very detailed."
As Vanilarai spoke, he took out various papers and objects from a package hanging behind him and placed them on the table next to Dicas as he walked.
Reaching out to take a piece of intelligence and looking at it, Ducas and Carlo looked serious and said:
"It seems that my most loyal knight is about to start a war. I finally got a year's rest, but I didn't expect to have to fight again."
"Who says it's not true? We spent two years finally conquering the sixth, fifth, and third cities, and another year resolving various management issues and building a unified free federal management area for the three cities. But after only a year of peace, we have to go to war again. It's really unpredictable."
Listening to the sighs of the two knight commanders, Vanila Rui did not say anything. She was also very surprised when she got the intelligence just now, but for her who had experienced many battles, it would be better to avoid war.
But this is not a decision she can make after all. Based on the reliability of the intelligence, the war launched by the king will probably come soon, so it is better to make preparations in advance.
Fanilari thought so, then took his leave and left the office.
Walking out of the big house in the manor, Vanilari walked towards a small house on the left.
When I arrived at the door of the cottage, I saw a young man with long brown hair lying leisurely on an old man's chair, swaying as comfortably as someone who had entered old age. Next to him, a white-haired, green-eyed maid stood respectfully by the side, poured tea into the cup, and handed it to the young man.
"Thank you for your hard work, Norli."
The young man said as he drank the teacup in one gulp. Then he looked at Vanilaraj vaguely and said with a smile:
"Hey, isn't this little Nila? You actually have time to come and see me today."
"Can you please stop? Sister Norli is already taking care of the maids, but you're still ordering them around like this. Are you a man? I'll remember this!"
Hearing the girl's words of concern for Norli, No. 1 Ye Li, who was dressed as a knight, waved his hands helplessly, as if he had no other tricks.
"Little Nila, I have no choice if you say that. Norli insisted on doing this, so I had no choice but to not hurt her feelings and let her take care of my daily life except for eating, bathing, dressing and working hours."
"What about sleeping?"
After hearing this, Norli's face turned red, and the dignity that originally belonged to the leader of the maid group was gone.
Vanilarai spoke directly and killed him, causing the expression of Ye's No. 1 clone to change. Then he coughed and said:
"Ahem! Little Nila, what are you thinking? As the saying goes, men and women should not touch each other. Besides, Norli is a girl, she should understand this principle."
Upon hearing this, Norli nodded slightly. Although her face was still a little blushed, the dignity of the leader of the maid group returned again. Her graceful movements were as undiminished as before, as if the previous breach in defense had never happened.
Fanilara was aware of how rude her previous words were, but she couldn't help but get angry when she heard someone's completely inappropriate voice, so she said something subconsciously, and now she is embarrassed.
What they fear most is the sudden silence in the air. No. 1 Ye Li, Norli, and Vanilari fell into a strange silence, but the sudden appearance of the fourth person broke this feeling.
"Hey, what are you three doing here? If you have nothing to do, are you interested in drinking dandelion wine with me?"
"God, can you please behave like a god? It will be difficult for you to defeat me like this."
A light and loose voice, and an extremely quiet helpless and lazy voice that could only be heard by No. 4 Ye Li, came along with two young men who looked identical but different, stepping over. The eyes of No. 1 Ye Li, who was slumped in the old man's chair, and Vanilara, who was embarrassed and dared not speak, lit up.
No. 1 Ye Li: "Oh my, these two are finally here. They haven't paid off the money for the last drinking."
Vanilara: "Oh, my god! You are my savior (Ah, thank you for letting the twins come over. The embarrassment is finally over now."
Although the two people had different thoughts in their hearts, the embarrassment was indeed gone.
"Hey, Wendy, you're here."
No. 1 Ye Li lazily lay on the old man's chair and waved to the two drunkards.
"Hey, Lord God, aren't you afraid that he will take our drinking money? We haven't paid off our drinking money yet."
The real Wendy spoke quietly to the Wind Elf Wendy, but the Wind Elf Wendy said as if nothing was wrong and that her brother was protecting her:
"Don't worry, little believer! As a god, I'm offering you dandelion wine. As long as we offer more, we can pay you back."
The corner of the real Wendy's eye twitched. Although this trick sounded reasonable, she still felt that something was wrong.
The two came to No. 1 Ye Li and the other two. Wind Elf Wendy took out more than 20 bottles of dandelion wine from the wooden box he was carrying, placed them in front of the three people and said:
"Come on, let's get drunk tonight!"
……
Liyue, the border of the four seas, the rear battlefield.
Ye Li shot the top demon to death with one shot, and the slight fatigue in his eyes proved how hard he had worked in this battle.
Retracting his spear, Ye Li skillfully searched his memory and thoroughly understood the plans of the Dream Demon God, Osel and others for more than half a month. He couldn't help but say with a smile on his face:
"Dream Demon, I admit that your strategy is comparable to my mother's. You are proud enough to delay our expedition for three years."
After Ye Li finished speaking, he looked up at the sounds of artillery fire and shouts of killing all around the battlefield. He subconsciously took out a pill from the token and swallowed it, restoring some elemental power.
"If that's true, no matter which world you go to, fighting is the best way to improve your strength. The top Demon God realm that originally took just a hundred years to break through has been compressed into five years. Although it's okay to break through now, you should accumulate enough energy to break through first."
Thinking this in his heart, Ye Li released the elemental power in his body.
A huge hole was torn in the sky, and a huge star shining with golden light fell on the battlefield, clearing out a group of monsters and demons, and ending the war.
