Kaiya reached out to stop Qin, stared at Lu Sheng, and asked vigilantly: "How do you prove that you are Lu Sheng?"
After being compared to Kaeya, everyone remembered that they had seen a leader of the Abyss Cult on the battlefield who looked exactly like Lu.
The atmosphere in the office suddenly became silent, and everyone looked at Lu Sheng at the same time, waiting for his answer.
"Paimon, it's time to eat."
"Great! Let's eat! Where are the delicious foods? I can eat them all..."
Paimeng rushed out of Lu Sheng's body with a fierce look, dancing with joy for the delicious food he was about to taste. After a moment, he realized that something was wrong in the atmosphere. His face suddenly turned red like a ripe sunset fruit, and he quickly hid behind Lu Sheng.
"Hmm... Paimon can't finish eating all the food for so many people..."
The appearance of Paimon basically dispelled everyone's concerns, and Wendy also stood up to endorse Lu Sheng.
"Don't worry, this is a real traveler. I can guarantee it."
Qin Chang breathed a sigh of relief, walked up to the two of them, and said sincerely: "Wen... No, Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, Lu Sheng, thank you for saving the Knights and Mondstadt."
"Captain Qin, please thank the Traveler alone if you want to thank anyone. As the Wind God of Mondstadt, it is my duty to protect my people, but I failed to do so. I should say sorry to everyone. I am late."
Just as Lu Sheng was about to say something, a voice that only he could hear suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Traveler, please do not tell the people of Mondstadt that I have lost the Heart of God. In this situation, they need a reliable god as a spiritual support. From now on, I will fulfill my duties as the God of Wind and guide my people out of the shadows and through this crisis."
Lu Sheng turned to look at Wendy and found that he was blinking at him.
He smiled knowingly and said, "Yes, it was really dangerous this time. I almost couldn't come back. Um... can the commission be increased?"
Lu Sheng thought that he was about to leave Mondstadt, and if he didn't take the opportunity to make more money, he would never have such a good opportunity again in the future.
"Of course! I guarantee that you will be satisfied with the commission this time! I heard from Kaia before that you were cheated out of money when you bought weapons in Mond. As compensation and return, I decided to give you the legendary weapon treasured by the Knights of Favonius, the Sky Blade, as the acting leader."
"Lord Fengshen, you should have no objection, right?"
Qin did not forget to ask Wendy for her opinion.
Wendy agreed to Qin's idea without hesitation.
"Of course, the day a weapon is made, it is meant to be used. "The best warrior uses the best sword," as the sung psalms describe. "
Lu Sheng secretly complained in his heart: No way? I have already run to Teyvat and I can still get the Sky Sword?
Mondstadt: Chapter 27: The taste of a witch is really good
Before Lu Sheng came, Qin and others had discussed a plan and decided to carry out a major cleansing of Mond from the inside out.
First of all, we must identify the Fatui who have infiltrated all levels and positions, and prevent them from spying on the Knights and stealing Mondstadt's secrets.
Secondly, we will launch an operation to eliminate monsters in all of Mondstadt. Due to insufficient manpower, this task needs to be done slowly. We will first clean up the areas near Mondstadt to ensure the safety of the residents, and then expand outwards step by step until all the monsters are killed.
Qin called this action - Mondploughing.
"Okay, it's late now, everyone go back and get some rest. From tomorrow on, we will follow the guidelines I set."
"clear."
Everyone's originally uneasy hearts were settled a lot after this meeting. At least, Captain Qin was a capable leader, and Lord Wind God Barbatos was also back, which gave them confidence to recover quickly from the dragon disaster.
After the others left, only a few core members were left in the Knights.
Qin turned and asked, "Lu Sheng, everyone saw another you on the battlefield today. Can you explain it?"
Lu Sheng shook his head. "I can't explain it, because I don't know who he is."
Then, Lu Sheng shared some of the information he obtained in the mysterious temple with the Knights.
The only information we have is that the Abyss Twins will go to Liyue next and that there are people in Mondstadt who are involved in the Abyss Cult.
Qin's pupils trembled violently.
"The Abyss Cult is recruiting followers in our Mondstadt? How come I don't know about this? Who are they?"
Lu Sheng shrugged and replied, "I killed them all by accident, but I can provide the address of that place. If you go look for it, you should be able to find a few bodies that can be identified."
Qin's expression darkened instantly, and she murmured, "It seems that the cleansing operation needs to add a new content."
Lisa: "My dear, so your next target is also Liyue?"
"Well, I should rest for a few days and then I'll leave."
Lisa said worriedly, "But Liyue is not like our Mondstadt. The Seven Stars' management of the country there is much stricter, which will cause a lot of inconveniences...Jin, how about you write a letter as the leader? When you arrive in Liyue, my little cutie can give the letter to the Seven Stars, telling them to be alert to the invasion of the Abyss Cult, and also to open a backdoor for my little cutie."
This was a good suggestion, and Qin readily agreed. She immediately sat down at her desk and wrote a letter, stamped it with the seal of the leader of the Knights Templar, and handed it to Lu Sheng.
"Thank you."
Lu Sheng kept the letter. With this, it would be much easier for him to move around in Liyue. At least he would not be hunted down by the Thousand Rock Army as a suspicious person.
"By the way, is there anything to eat at this time? My Hakimon seems to be about to faint from hunger."
Qin smiled happily, "Yes, I ordered the Knights to stand guard in shifts 24 hours a day, and the kitchen is always in working order."
"Great! Paimon can finally have a good meal!"
After Lu Sheng had a full meal, Paimeng was only half full. While eating, he complained that the food here was not as good as the previous restaurant.
"I'm going to the bathroom. Paimon, take your time eating. Wait here for me when you're done. Don't run around."
"Uh...ok...uh...master..."
Lu Sheng got up and left, and in a flash he arrived near the Goethe Hotel. He put on a mask and flew into the hotel from the second floor.
However, the lady seemed to have anticipated that Mond would be closed, so she left Mond long ago, and all the Fatui diplomatic affairs, big and small, were left to Anastasia.
Lu Sheng sneaked into Anastasia's room, saw that she was sleeping soundly, and quietly blew into her ear.
Anastasia opened her eyes dazedly and saw a ghost face. She screamed in fright and rolled off the bed.
"You have the guts to call yourself the Faintheads. Shame on you."
Lu Sheng took off his mask and smiled brightly.
"You! You! What are you doing running into my room in the middle of the night?! After all, I am a woman!"
Lu Sheng answered the question according to geography: "The lady is not here, who else should I look for if not you? Where is she?"
Anastasia blushed, grabbed the quilt to cover her translucent lace nightgown, and glared at Lu Sheng fiercely, "The lady left a long time ago and went to Liyue. She asked me to bring you a message, saying that you have made great contributions and have been promoted to the Fatui debt handler. In Mondstadt, you must obey me in everything."
Lu Sheng put his hands on his hips and questioned, "You added the last sentence yourself, right?"
"No... No! That's what the lady said. I'm the counselor and you're the debt handler. You should listen to me!"
"Then what if I don't listen?"
"You!" Anastasia was about to explode, but suddenly she remembered what this madman had done, and immediately lowered her voice guiltily, "Then there's nothing I can do, but I will report your actions to the lady truthfully!"
"Tsk, boring, let's go."
Lu Sheng didn't want to tease the counselor any more, so he turned around and left, and helped close the door.
"Remember to lock the door next time you go to bed, although it doesn't matter to me whether it's locked or not."
However, Lu Sheng did not leave the Goethe Hotel, but slipped into the lady's room. Although the lady had left, the faint smell of her perfume still remained in the room.
Interestingly, there is a portrait of the lady hanging above her bed.
"Oh my god, you narcissist!"
After a round of rummaging through the closets, there was nothing of value except the embarrassing underwear in the closet.
Lu Sheng was about to leave in disappointment, but suddenly he had an idea. He jumped onto the bedside and moved the portrait away, and there was indeed a secret compartment hidden behind it.
When I opened the secret compartment, I saw a list inside.
It contains the identity information of all the Fatui in Mond, and this list is enough to make Jean sweat profusely.
Mond's commerce, agriculture, and even the Knights Templar have been thoroughly infiltrated by the Fatui's spies.
If this list were to be made public, Mond's guillotine would continue to chop for three days and three nights without stopping.
However, Lu Sheng has no intention of handing it over to the Knights for the time being, because he can take the opportunity to make a fortune.
----
The next morning, big news came from Mond.
Mr. Hu Ke, a wine tycoon in Mond and one of the largest suppliers of Chenxi Winery, was found dead in his home by his servants.
All the valuables in the house were looted, leaving nothing behind; even the silver cups used for drinking were packed up and taken away by the murderer.
What’s even more interesting is that before his death, Hu Ke left a letter of confession, confessing his identity as a spy for Winter Solstice. However, judging from the trembling handwriting, he must have been coerced at the time.
In the following days, murders were discovered one after another.
The singer... the ore merchant... the tailor shop owner... even the Knights' officer.
These people had one thing in common: they were rich, and they all confessed their espionage activities before their death.
-
night.
Lu Sheng crossed out a name on the list and muttered, "This should be the last worthy target. The rest are too poor, so forget it."
In the past few days, he killed people one after another according to the identity information on the list, and made a lot of money, a million Mora was no problem.
There are a bunch of people left, all of them are small characters with little benefits, let the Knights catch them slowly.
It’s time for me to go to Liyue to do some serious work.
Lu Sheng quietly came to the library and planned to hand the list to Lisa. Due to the special period, Lisa was still busy in the library even though it was already time to get off work.
"Ah! Little cutie? Why did you suddenly think of coming to your sister's place?"
When Lisa saw Lu Sheng, her eyes were filled with joy.
"I'm going to Liyue. Before I leave, I have a gift for you."
"Are you leaving soon?" Lisa said in a disappointed tone, "I haven't had time to study you properly yet~ But what gift do you want to give me?"
Lu Sheng took out the list and handed it over.
Lisa took the list and glanced at it, her face full of shock.
"This is! The list of Fatui?!" She was surprised, but quickly realized that the murder cases that had been making headlines in the past few days were actually done by this guy.
"Okay! I was wondering why you didn't give this list to Qin. It turns out you didn't dare! You little brat, you made a lot of money secretly, right? Why don't you share some with your sister? Don't you believe that I will go to Qin and tell on her?"
Lu Sheng pulled out a pair of exquisite jewel earrings from his pocket.
"Here~ I picked this out carefully. The purple gemstone is a perfect match for Sister Lisa. Don't worry, this is not stolen goods. I bought this with the money I earned from stolen goods."
Lisa was so angry that she laughed at Lu Sheng's words. She took the earrings and put them on without hesitation, then took out the mirror to admire them.
"I have to say, you have a pretty good eye. Tell me the truth, how many girls have you fooled with this trick?"
Lisa felt an inexplicable thrill in her heart, as if she was back in time to when she was a little girl, feeling nervous yet happy the first time someone gave her a gift.
"What are you talking about? I've only been in Mondstadt for a short time. How can I have the time to lie to a little girl..."
"Huh? You mean, I'm not a little girl?"
Lisa put down the mirror, her cheeks flushed, her fingertips made crackling sounds, and she walked towards Lu Sheng step by step.
Lu Sheng felt inexplicably guilty. Every time Lisa took a step closer, he took a step back, until he bumped into the bookshelf and had nowhere to retreat.
"My dear, you have absorbed so much elemental power in Mond, have you ever thought about absorbing your sister's?"
Lisa was almost sticking to Lu Sheng, her eyes were drawn, and her fingers stroked Lu Sheng's cheek, bringing a tingling feeling.
It's broken! It's coming for me!
A heat spread around Lu Sheng's neck.
"Since we are all leaving, let me study your body carefully tonight. In return, you can absorb as much of my lightning elemental power as you want."
In the dead of night in Mondstadt, the crackling sound of electricity in the library lasted all night...
The next morning, Lu Sheng walked out holding his waist.
He sighed weakly as he walked: "Damn it... He told me to suck it freely, but he ended up sucking me dry... This time I really lost a lot..."
But...the taste of witch is really good~
