Chapter 131 Angel’s Gift

The Knights' Headquarters, Office of the Acting Master.

The flickering candles on the ceiling chandelier emit a bright yellow light that illuminates the entire room. No matter whether the person is sitting or standing, the shadows cast by them appear darker.

There were piles of documents on the acting head's desk, and their long shadows were cast on Qin's soft legs in white tights, as if covered by a translucent black filter.

You can imagine how busy she was. As expected, it was caused by the storm.

"Captain Qin, we have found a way to save the Wind Dragon." Ying said with a smile on her fair face.

Qin closed the document she had just approved and showed a slightly surprised expression. She had not expected that there would be a turn for the better so soon.

She put down the quill she was writing with, stretched out her fair hands to both sides of her thighs, and gently massaged them with her fingers to relieve the numbness caused by sitting for a long time, and said at the same time:

"Traveller, please tell me in detail."

"Hey, hey, let me say it, let me say it!" Paimon, who was dressed in white, said excitedly before Ying could speak.

"..." Ying pressed the waist covered by the dress, looked at her helplessly and said, "Okay, tell me..."

"Here's what happened. After we left the Knights this morning, we met a bard...well, this guy." Paimon said, his wandering eyes stopping on Wendy.

"A poet?" Qin rested her elbows on the table, her white fingers clasped together to support her chin, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

What kind of poet would know how to save the wind dragon?
". Then Wendy said he could use the Sky Harp to summon the Wind Dragon, so we went to the cathedral to ask the nun to borrow it. Then we found out that the Fatui also had ideas about it, so we captured her, and now the Sky Harp is in our hands."

Paimon slowly and briefly explained what had happened.

Qin, who was sitting with her legs together, nodded after listening to it, and felt a little more relaxed. At least she didn't have to worry about the loss of the Sky Harp anymore.

"So after you failed to borrow the Sky Harp, you actually wanted to steal it, but then you discovered that some Fatui had also sneaked into the basement of the cathedral."

Qin couldn't help but look at the few people with some resentment. In the end, whether there were Fatui or not, the Sky Harp would still be lost.

"Hey, hey," Paimon scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then accused Wendy, "It's all the fault of this street-singing poet who instigated us. In fact, we don't want to steal anything at all. If you want to catch someone, just catch him."

"Oh, little Paimon, you actually put all the blame on me. It's so sad."

Wendy covered her chest with her hands and looked heartbroken.

"The Sky Harp is in your hands now, do you still want to deny it?" Paimon folded her arms and looked away. She was good at shirking responsibility.

"Well, Captain Qin, we came here not only to explain the situation, but also to help save the Wind Dragon and resolve the Mondstadt crisis."

Li Qiuzhi ignored the two people who were still arguing and went straight to talk business with Captain Qin.

"Do you want to continue to borrow the Sky Harp? If this method is really feasible, I can guarantee it for you."

Qin placed her right leg under the table on top of her left leg, with her foot in white boots slightly raised. She thought for a moment and nodded.

"This should be useful, but the Sky Harp has lost a lot of power. We need to find some pure and concentrated wind element materials to repair and replenish it."

Li Qiuzhi continued to explain that the red crystals were the tears of the Wind Dragon and could be purified by fluorescence.

After purification, it was successfully used as a high-level wind element material to replenish some of the lost power of the Sky Harp, but it was still not enough and needed the help of the Knights to find it.

"I see.

"But unfortunately, the Wind Dragon caused a storm in Mondstadt, causing the citizens to resent it. If the Knights do something to show their goodwill to it, the Fatui will definitely misinterpret it and attack it.

"It will be useless to hold them accountable for their attempt to steal the Wind God's treasure, the Sky Harp."

As the acting leader, Jean needs to consider many aspects, especially in times of crisis, any action of the Knights will be magnified, and they must not be caught by people with bad intentions. "Ah, so the pressure on Jean is so great." Paimon said with some surprise.

He is basically the highest-level manager in Mond now. It is really hard for people who have not reached this position to imagine the weight of that responsibility.

"However, although the Knights cannot carry out large-scale operations, I personally still hope to do my best to help everyone, so I would like to ask you to meet someone."

Qin folded her hands in front of her abdomen, resting her head on her soft thighs. Her shawl was slightly lifted to reveal her snow-white back, and a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

"Meet someone? Could it be someone more powerful than Captain Qin?"

Paimon asked confused.

"He is a senior who is protecting Mond in his own way." Qin stood up from her chair without saying much.

"Senior?" Ying, wearing a white long-sleeved shirt, crossed her arms over her chest with her chin lowered, thinking about who Captain Qin's senior could be?
Oh, it seems that it should be Master Diluk, the night elf hero of Mondstadt.

Li Qiuzhi thought thoughtfully.

Next, Captain Qin first ordered the two Knights of Favonius to take the still unconscious Thunderfire Warlock to the prison, then looked at the documents on the desk and sighed:

"I can't leave now, so I can only write a letter and ask you to take it over."

She took out white letter paper and envelope from the built-in cabinet in her desk and wrote beautifully on them with a quill pen.

Why isn't Captain Qin going with us?
Li Qiuzhi was a little speechless when looking at this situation. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be his appearance that caused some changes in the details of the game plot.

For example, it turned out that it was the Firefly Warlock who successfully took away the Sky Lyre, but the Traveler and Venti were wanted. During their escape, they temporarily hid in Diluk's tavern, and with his help they avoided the pursuit of the Knight of Favonius.

The next plot is to continue to find the Fatui's base and take back the Sky Harp with the help of the underground intelligence network controlled by Diluk.

During this period, he also asked the leader of the Qin group to come and help.

But now Li Qiuzhi and his men have successfully captured the Thunder Firefly Warlock, and most importantly, the Sky Harp has not been lost.

Then Captain Qin feels that the situation is still under control, so it is reasonable for him to choose to deal with more important matters first.

After all, the search for the red crystal mainly depends on Diluk's underground intelligence network, and it would be difficult for her to play a role in the short term.

Soon.

Qin folded the letter and put it into the envelope, then sealed it with red wax with the seal of the Knights Templar.

She handed the letter to Li Qiu and said:
"Go to the Angel's Gift tavern and find the owner Diluc there. Give him the letter from the Knights. I think he will help you after understanding the situation."

"it is good."

Li Qiuzhi took the letter and nodded to indicate that there was no problem.

"Well, without further ado, I'll leave it to you to save the Wind Dragon and resolve Mondstadt's crisis!"

Qin said with a smile on her fair face.

[Qin has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 200 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.4 (230/400)]

200 points of favorability? The increase seems to be quite good. It should be that the title of [Honorary Knight] played some role.

Li Qiuzhi thought silently.
