Their commission was suspicious.

Although Barbara is not a holder of the Wind-type Eye of God, the wind elemental power she possesses is so abundant that it's almost blinding.

"Lord Barbatos! Everyone, please excuse me for a moment. I need to place the Sky Harp in the secret chamber first." Barbara was overjoyed when she saw the Sky Harp. After saying a few words to everyone, she ran directly into the secret door that had already been opened.

[Ding! Mission complete]

[Ding! Mission complete]

"Alo, how exactly did you repair the Sky Harp?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked, quite puzzled.

The Herrscher of Knowledge believed that after spending so much time with Chen Luo, he understood Chen Luo's basic abilities, but he truly couldn't figure out what this particular ability was.

"Ah, is this what you mean?" Chen Luo scratched his head and took a broken zither out of his backpack.

"Hey, how come there's a Sky Harp here!" Paimon's little eyes widened in surprise.

"Keep your voice down. Actually, what I have in my hand isn't the Sky Harp, but a piece of equipment called Void Treasury." Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and the broken harp in his hand instantly transformed into a golden hexahedron.

"Huh? When did you change it?" This question shocked me, a treasure enthusiast for a whole year.

"Ever since Wendy drank 10 glasses of wine at my place and slept straight through until the next day, even forgetting to give me the Sky Harp, I've felt deeply that he's unreliable. So when I took it out this morning, it was a fake," Chen Luo said with a shrug.

"So, in other words, the repair just now was just an illusion? The real Sky Harp was perfectly intact from the beginning? But why did you do this? Wouldn't it have been better to bring it out sooner?" Qin was also quite shocked.

“Well, naturally I want to give you a chance to show off in front of your sister,” Chen Luo said, explaining the 5% reason.

That's right, it's 5%.

"Oh, thank you."

"But what about that wind seed from earlier? It looked really powerful." The Herrscher of Knowledge asked again.

“This is the coin, of course. But the wind god's power on it seems to have disappeared. Let Wendy recharge it later,” Chen Luo said, taking out the Mora coin blessed by the wind god.

Wool comes from sheep.

Anyway, since I can get Venti for free with this thing, I might as well use it.

“However, has Barbara forgotten something?” Chen Luo suddenly asked.

"What is it?" Qin asked.

"Where's my reward? Didn't you say there would be a reward?" Chen Luo asked, glancing at the church where Barbara was no longer in sight.

Chapter 177 Is it possible that the Heart of God is also fake?

In the end, Chen Luo did not receive the reward that the church had promised him, but it was not that the church reneged on its promise. The main reason was that Barbara had not come out for a long time after running into the secret passage.

"Alright, let's go. Let's not stay here any longer." In the end, Chen Luo didn't wait any longer for Qin's sake.

The key point is that Chen Luo wants to see Wendy's heart ripped out.

I'm so excited! What kind of expression should I make when Wendy gets her heart ripped out? Shock? Angry? Or terrified?

After Wendy's heart is laid bare, should I laugh at her or comfort her?

Hmm, how about we take this opportunity to fleece Venti a bit?

How about a ten-pull of Wind God Wine, the ultimate intoxicating bliss?

With this sense of amusement in mind, after the guards installed several switches that Chen Luo couldn't understand, Chen Luo and his group pushed open the gate.

As soon as Chen Luo opened the door, he saw a certain green-clad poet lying on the ground.

"Holy crap, Wendy, what's wrong with you, Wendy? How did you get your heart ripped out so quickly?!" Chen Luo looked at Wendy lying on the ground, slid down to her knees, and tried to shake her awake.

Couldn't you have tried a little harder? We'll see you through our heart after we get out. How could you do this?

Now Chen Luo understands why, when the Wind God had his heart ripped out at the entrance of Mondstadt Cathedral, no one came out. It wasn't that they didn't come out; they simply didn't sense it.

"Baba... Wendy, what's wrong, Wendy!" Jean, seeing this horrifying scene, immediately ran over.

Lord Barbatos has been assassinated! The entire area is under lockdown!

Although Qin really wanted to say that, there wasn't a hair around, so what was the point of sealing it off?

It's worth mentioning that Chen Luo didn't enter through the main entrance of the church, but through a side entrance. Therefore, this entrance didn't directly face Mondstadt, and there were indeed few people around.

No, there's no one here.

"Wendy, my Wendy, without you, how can I shear sheep... how can I survive!" Chen Luo hugged Wendy and cried miserably.

"Is there any hope for Wendy? Chen Luo, you have to think of a way to save him!" Qin said in a panic.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Saving Private Barbatos

Reward: 200 Primogems + [Honor Knight]

Difficulty: Two stars

The ensemble leader is truly devout.

"Okay, okay." Looking at the reward, Chen Luo nodded reluctantly.

Chen Luo should have been happy to see the commissioned task, but he felt a chill when he saw the words "Honorary Knight".

Can I refuse to accept this reward?

I have a feeling this reward is a trap.

"Emmm..." After thinking for a moment, Chen Luo took out his tricolor dumpling after looking at Wendy in his arms.

Staring at his tricolor dumpling, Chen Luo was deep in thought.

If a serving of Three-Colored Dumpling restores 33% of your health, it will continue to restore an additional 10% of your health.

A string of three-colored dumplings has three balls. Does each ball represent 11% of the player's health, with an additional 3.3% health added afterward?

Chen Luo felt this was a blind spot.

But Chen Luo felt that giving this thing to Wendy would be a waste.

Even with the recipe, Chen Luo couldn't produce these three-colored dumplings indefinitely. The key issue was that the material supply was limited to 30 servings per month, and Chen Luo couldn't find the raw materials for the time being.

And for Wendy and such, wouldn't a drink suffice?

Hmm, I'd like a drink...

After a moment's thought, Chen Luo suddenly produced a glass of wine surrounded by a gentle breeze.

The appearance of this glass of wine surprised everyone present, especially Yura.

Yura was quite familiar with this drink, as she ordered one every night.

The famous Fengshen Wine.

However, when Yura thought about how she often drank Anemo's Brew in front of Wendy, she felt a little... awkward.

When the glass of wine appeared in Chen Luo's hand, Chen Luo keenly noticed that Wendy in his arms moved slightly, but after that, she remained still.

After raising an eyebrow, Chen Luo hugged Wendy with one hand, then gently pried open Wendy's mouth with a silk thread, and poured the cup of Wind God Wine into Wendy's mouth.

But when only about 20 milliliters of wine had been poured into the glass, Chen Luo suddenly put the glass away.

"..." Chen Luo just stared at Wendy in silence.

"..." Wendy remained motionless in Chen Luo's arms.

"..." Qin looked at Chen Luo's behavior with some confusion.

"..." Chen Luo remained motionless.

“…Water…” Wendy’s lips parted slightly, and then she opened her eyes weakly.

"Oh, so you wanted water, not wine." Chen Luo suddenly realized.

"liquor!"

[Ding! You have a new request!]

【liquor!】

Wendy sat up abruptly from Chen Luo's arms and snatched the wine glass from his hand.

"Glug glug..."

[Ding! Mission complete]

"Sigh, you see? Only a drink can cure a thousand sorrows. Of course, this drink of mine is no ordinary drink; it contains wind elemental power, so it has a very good healing effect on Wendy." Seeing that Wendy had woken up, Chen Luo didn't forget to cover for her.

"Is that so? Thank you for your hard work!" Qin suddenly realized.

[Ding! Mission complete]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the achievement (Honorary Knight)]

【Honorary Knight】(3 stars): When you walk on the land of Mondstadt, you gain an increased initial favorability with the people of Mondstadt, making it easier to gain the respect of others, the favorability of those of the Order and Neutral factions, and to accept quests.

Ah, this... makes it easier to accept commissions, isn't it?

As expected, this achievement is just a tool-type character with all attributes maxed out, but thankfully, it's a pretty good fit for Chen Luo.

Although the other party might issue a commission to Chen Luo, wouldn't it be better for Chen Luo to simply refuse it? Or, if it's just a small favor, he could get a reward of raw stones by doing it for them casually.

Overall, it's a decent reward achievement, but unfortunately it lacks potential.

"Are you alright?" Chen Luo asked Wendy with feigned concern.

"N-nothing's wrong." Wendy, who had been tempted by the alcohol and couldn't help waking up, glanced awkwardly at Chen Luo and said.

"Then give me back the bottle, it's very expensive." Chen Luo held out his hand to Wendy.

"Huh?" Wendy was taken aback.

"What do you mean, 'huh'? I'm talking about that bottle you're holding." While Wendy was still in a daze, Chen Luo snatched the bottle from her mouth.

This bottle was a free gift when he bought the Void Wine. Since he felt that the Void Wine was too expensive when he sold it for the first time, Chen Luo kept the bottle.

After keeping it, he later discovered while handling it that the bottle had the property of blocking the leakage of aura and energy.

Simply put, it's no wonder that this sake costs five raw stones to buy; even the bottle has some unique features.

Although Chen Luo didn't know what this thing could be used for, keeping it for now was definitely the right thing to do.

"Ahem, thank you for your treatment, but I'm still a bit injured. If possible, could you send me to Windrise?" Wendy said to Chen Luo after standing up.

“Of course.” Chen Luo nodded.

After all, she had just been caught pretending to faint, and although Chen Luo had covered for her, she absolutely couldn't give others a chance to think, because if they did, something bad was bound to happen.

“Then I will too…” Qin stepped forward.

“No need, it’s just Chen Luo and me. I have something to tell him,” Wendy said seriously.

"Is that so? Alright then. By the way, Chen Luo, if you're free later, come to the Knights of Favonius. It's time to award you your reward, after all, you've made a great contribution to Mondstadt." Jean turned to Chen Luo and said.

"No problem, okay, got it." Chen Luo nodded.

"So, Little Shi, are you going to play in Mondstadt for a while, or what?" Chen Luo asked the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Hmm... Can I sit on the hands of the God of War statue for a while? It sounds like it would be a lot of fun." The Herrscher of Knowledge, after turning her gaze away from the Wind God, excitedly said to Chen Luo.

"...You and Chen Luo are really..." Wendy was speechless for a moment.

They really are cut from the same mold.

You don't need to be so subtle. If you want to go clubbing, just go.

“This…” Chen Luo looked at the head of the ensemble.

"Mondstadt can tolerate this request from the hero who saved Mondstadt." Jean wasn't a rigid person.

"Yay, I'm going to have some fun. Just remember to call me if you need anything." The Herrscher of Knowledge cheered and then took to the air.

The sight of the Herrscher of Knowledge taking flight left Jean, Lisa, and Yura completely stunned.

After all, being able to fly is still quite amazing on the continent of Teyvat.

"Wow, Fu Hua can fly too?" Paimon exclaimed in shock.

Oh no, my cuteness factor is gone.

"Alright, you guys chat first, I'm going to talk to Chen Luo about something." Wendy gestured to Chen Luo with her eyes.
