Chapter 405
Chapter 405
"Diluc, congratulations!"
"Your congratulations are not necessary, are they?"
is both a knight of the west wind and the same family, in fact, the intersection of the two is not much.
Over the years, Kaeya has become a little more cynical, with a slender and straight figure, slightly dark skin and a chic temperament that fascinates many girls.
Diluc, on the other hand, is gradually fading away from the liveliness that young people should have, and has more maturity and stability that is unusual compared to his peers.
As soon as the order to become the captain of the cavalry was announced, it caused an uproar, but no one chose to question it.
Since joining the Knights, he has made many meritorious deeds and completed many almost impossible tasks, and has been recognized by many people, becoming the idol of many young people after Ellendrin.
Needless to say
, at this juncture, the Knights of Favonius need a legend.
Both internally and externally.
Diluc's exploits and prestige are well deserved, but now they are the trend of the times, so naturally there is no resistance at all.
In contrast, Kaeya's fishing skills have become more and more sophisticated.
The responsibilities have also shifted from above-ground to underground intelligence work.
"It's been a long time since the two of us drank together, so why don't you have two drinks tonight?"
"Oh, don't be so ruthless! I'll go to the tavern and pay the bill first, how about I?"
Diluc gave him an angry look, and Diluc had nothing to do with this guy who always thought of a way to pay his bills, and the only way to deal with it was to refuse to go out drinking with him.
However, it had been a few years since the last drink, and Diluc finally agreed.
Moments of joy need someone around you to celebrate.
One or two, it's enough.
In the eyes of everyone, Diluc is the pride of the sky, a genius in the eyes of everyone, and perhaps even the piano of the Gunnhild family is much inferior to it.
Along with Lawrence, it was the Gunnhild clan who first chose to rebel against the Demon God of Gale, and it was the Gunnhild clan who first summoned the courage to break through the walls and enter the world of ice and snow.
It is even rumored that Barbatos, the god of wind, was born from the sincere prayers of the daughter of the patriarch of the Gunnhild family.
One of the founding families of Mondstadt, the Gunnhild family was a stable knightly family, along with the rising House of Ryunfender.
When Cripps had an accident, the Gunnhild family was too stable to be able to do so, and at least one family member was canonized as a knight every time the Order was selected.
The appearance of the piano to some extent broke the argument that women could not become knights.
Before that, a female knight named Britney turned out to be a knight after defeating all her rivals.
However -
it didn't end well for her.
At that time, the Knights pushed off the sugar plug for various reasons, refusing Britney's entry as a knight, and at most she could only use the title of a knight's squire or knight's assistant.
Ultimately.
Britney chooses to maintain her true glory, and angrily becomes a chivalric etiquette teacher for the Legunfender family.
The piano is a very different result.
Her background is fundamentally different from Britney's, she has been able to receive rigorous knight training since she was a child, and she is surprisingly good.
Compared to Diluc's rapid progress, she showed great talent at a younger age, being able to defeat her sword teacher at the age of twelve, and by the time she took the knightly preliminaries, she already had good combat power.
It can be called the strongest to appear in the qualifiers.
After joining the Knights, she practiced the spirit of knighthood in a real sense, and won the approval of several households, and the candidate for the next cavalry captain was thought to be chosen from among her and Diluc.
"Diluc, congratulations!" had
just separated from Kaeya when he ran into Jean head-on.
"Thank you. "
Hmm... Are you going to celebrate tonight? If so, can I have the privilege of participating?"
Diluc began to be reticent and even withdrawn, and all the friends he had been with him had chosen to leave.
Jean didn't want Diluc to be alone in such a happy time, and she was here for that.
After a moment's hesitation, Diluc learned the fact that Jean could drink, and then he told him his intention to drink with Kaeya that night.
I thought it would be a banquet.
It turned out that it was just a few barrels of good wine at a table of three people in the corner of his own tavern, and that was it.
"Ah, how can there be a lady!" Kaeya scratched her head and looked at the girl who was almost as good as Diluc, "Hehe, I'll go pay first."
Diluc was speechless.
It was only at such times that he would rush to pay!
At night, there were many drinkers, many of whom were talking about Diluc's rise to fame, without noticing that their proclaimed genius was under the same roof as them.
...
...
Meanwhile.
Qin Yu, who was far away at the Dawn Winery, had not yet learned the news.
Much of the news was delivered through horse-drawn carriages between Dawn Winery and Mondstadt, and as for the many secret lines used to gather intelligence in Mondstadt, it was decreed that no information should be reported except in matters of life and death.
Inside the study.
Qin Yu unceremoniously ripped off Britney's armor, and the latter chose to acquiesce after giving her a blank look.
A few years have passed, and Britney, as Qin Yu's personal knight, has long been accustomed to being anytime and anywhere.
Having your own independent estate is to be very capricious.
Thinking and not wanting is also in a thought.
"Don't forget to lose to me during the day!"
Qin Yu kneaded unceremoniously, gradually becoming presumptuous, Britney did not hide the desire in her heart, her eyes were tender, and she hugged gently, not caring about everything about Qin Yu.
"Got it, I'm not ashamed to lose to you. "
Haha, this is my Britney. "
To say not to be shocked is false.
Britney still can't figure out why Cripps has enough swordsmanship to bridge any gap, and that far more predictability and determination than anyone else is his most powerful weapon.
In the past few years, in his spare time, he will find Cripps to learn swordsmanship.
There are also fun bets such as losing once or losing a piece of armor, and I feel shy at first about things that add to the fun, but I gradually get used to it.
Fencing during the day and unsheathing at night.
Probably this is called a happy life.
There was rain outside the window, and there was rain inside the house.
The distinction between heavy rain and light rain is just that.
Lightning and thunder are often accompanied by the moisture of the sky on the land, and the air is the freshest after the rain and the sky is clear.
It was almost late at night, Britney was still planning to leave, but Qin Yu was extremely tough to leave it behind, so far, why should he care
so much? The matter between him and Britney can be regarded as almost known to everyone, so what?
The happiness of the two, they will not understand.
"Master Cripps, oh, Britney is too.
The housekeeper's usual greeting after seeing it made Britney, who was already shy, more and more shy, and her body unconsciously hid behind Qin Yu.
"Sir, Mr. Dott is here. "
Oh,
Dot!
Qin Yu seemed to smell something unusual from it.
After the butler left the room, Britney also ran out quickly, and it seemed that she was still a little uncomfortable!
After seven or eight years, Dott reappeared, and as soon as she appeared, she showed unprecedented groveling.
Business partners open up a new way of doing business, and it is normally very reasonable to join and make money.
But if it's just to dig a hole to make money from the beginning, you don't even have to be a friend.
The purpose of Dort's trip is unknown, and the identity behind it, Qin Yu really wants to see what Dort's purpose is.
Anyway, if you meet and chat a few words, you won't lose a few taels of meat.
After greetings, Dott took out a check from the Northland Bank, and the numbers on it made Qin Yu, a person who has handled huge fortunes all year round, shocked.
"Oh, what is Mr. Dott doing, when do we have to talk about money between us?"
The estrangement in his words made Dott smile wryly, and he could persuade Cripps to stake all his net worth until the winter trade, and he could multiply his profits several times at once.
The truth is that those who really have all their wealth have lost all their money, and many have chosen to commit suicide to apologize, bankrupting almost a third of the merchants in Mondstadt.
"It's already a great favor that Master Cripps is willing to receive me, and I don't dare ask for anything.
"This time, there are also two things to tell you, master. Putting
the check on the table with both hands, Dott smiled, full of crampedness, "This is the Mora you invested in the business road, as well as the interest of the past few years and a little compensation I have given you, I hope you can accept the sincere apology."
"The second thing is about the Fatui. I think you know that, Lord Cripps... Qin
Yu could feel that Cripp would instinctively not accept it, and immediately refused.
Still, Dott was unwilling to give up, using various methods to analyze the benefits of the Fatui entering Mondstadt, and even promised Kripps a high position in the Fatui army.
"I'm sorry, it's hard for me to imagine the words of a liar who once deceived me. Joining the Fatui is such a thing, do you think I will agree? Your dishonesty can be understated, what about me?"
Just as he wanted to refute the guarantee, Qin Yu got up and had already issued an eviction order.
"Excuse me, Lord Cripps, I hope you won't regret your decision tonight!"
"Heh!Dot, the thing I regret most is getting to know you!"
...
...
The carriage slowly drove away from Dawn Winery.
Dott put back on half of his mask, and his gentle expression vanished, revealing a particularly crazy look.
"Cripps, I wanted to see that the friendship of all these years gave you a way to live, but the opportunity was useless!" The
reason given by the Knights of Favonius is that there are enough knights currently on the register, and although they have been led by the Grand Master on an expedition, there is still enough energy left to protect the lives of the people of Mondstadt, and there is no need for the Fatui to participate.
For example
, Cripps Lygunfend, the most famous and wealthy man in Mondstadt, was killed by the demon dragon Ursa, who had been haunted for many years, and Diluc, who was the cavalry captain of the Knights of Favonius at the time and the son of Cripps, could not stop it.
Hey, hey, hey
, it must be very feeling, right?
When the time comes, will you still have that confident pat on your chest and promise? The
death of ordinary people, that is, the death of a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, will be a shock to the Knights of Favonius?
The answer is not at all.
Only when those who have a stake in their vital interests die, when the cruel and cold sword really hangs above their heads, there will be so-called fear.
Those dead ducks with hard mouths and desperate lives will really agree to the Fatui at all costs.
It's that simple!
Killing chickens and monkeys is always the most useful way.
Before killing the chicken, he also said that Dott thought he was a benevolent and benevolent person, and the other party did not appreciate it, what could he do?
"My lord, what are we going to do?"
Dott slowly closed his eyes and smiled very happily.
"Mobilize all those in the Knights of Favonius, and those who have accepted our benefits, in short, all those in Mondstadt who can be used, and build momentum for me!"
"Praise Diluc's strength, praise me vigorously, praise it reasonably, praise it at all costs. "
That's right, I also want the top of the Knights to give Diluc a few days off, and by the way, I also want to invite Cripps from Dawn Winery, how can such an excellent offspring not have a good banquet and entertain
?" "As a cavalry captain, he became famous at a young age, and there will be more and more things in the future, so it is normal for people to take a few days to go back to accompany his father, right!!"
Dott did not say anything more about the next words.
The dragon Ursa will take everything, including Cripps and his young son, to give the Knights of Favonius a little shock.
Guess what, those high-ranking people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, will cry and shout for the Fatui to come in?
...
"If you want me to say, I haven't been convinced by anyone for so many years, and I will only accept one person, and that is Master Diluc, and now I should change my name to Captain Diluc
!" "You are right! I think so too! In the future, maybe I will be able to surpass Elendrin, the Lion of Light!" "
I can reach this level now, and what level of strength can I reach in the future?"
Inside the tavern.
Kaeya instinctively frowned as she listened to the boasts of the drinkers.
What's going on
? Why are there so many Diluc blows in Mondstadt during this time?
There is a vague feeling that someone is behind the scenes...
What is the purpose of the other party
?"Kaeya
?"Jean?"What is the matter with me?
""I feel that something is not quite right, but there are no clues, and after thinking about it, it seems that I can only come to talk to you." The
young man beckoned the waiter to serve wine, and suddenly the appearance of a hippie smile made Jean extremely uncomfortable.
"Actually, I have a more intimate question, Jean, do you like Diluc?"
