Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

This nun knew perfectly well that Stormterror was the Dragon of the East Wind, a servant of the Wind God, and one of the former guardians of the four winds, yet she still felt that even if the Wind God appeared, their actions to defeat Stormterror were the right thing to do.

Those who knew nothing about the cause but that the Wind Demon Dragon was wreaking havoc in the city, upon assuming this was a mistake, naturally felt that they were in the right and could stand on high ground to judge the foolish dragon that they believed had turned against the East Wind.

Five hundred years ago, he was the Guardian of the Four Winds who saved Mondstadt with his life. After being awakened by poisonous blood for hundreds of years, he is now a dragon that has turned its back on the east wind.

How arrogant and ironic!

Jiang Bai patted Ke Li's head and breathed a sigh of relief.

Children with innocent hearts are still the most endearing.

Wendy sighed. "There's no other way. I can't hide it anymore."

He cleared his throat and struck the pose he usually struck while reciting poetry. "My devout believer, rejoice! Before you stands Barbatos, the god of the winds! Aren't you shocked? Aren't you so shocked you want to cry? You've finally met the god you serve, aren't you moved?"

Jiang Bai & Kong: "..."

Honestly, if they hadn't guessed it beforehand, they wouldn't have believed that such an unreliable guy could be Barbatos, the god of wind.

If you want people to believe you, then at least show some miracles, right? Give yourself wings or transform into something!

You spout nonsense here, and act so exaggeratedly, you never thought anyone would believe you!

Chapter 208 The arduous task is entrusted to you.

The nun remained indifferent and did not react to Wendy's words.

"If there's nothing else, I need to go back to the church to handle some documents."

Wendy's appearance ended in failure.

Jiang Bai didn't quite understand why he didn't just reveal his true form.

If he simply revealed his true form and asked for the Sky Harp, wouldn't these nuns have readily offered it to him? Why go through all this trouble?

Is it because it's worried about something? Or is it because it has lost too much power and can no longer reveal its true form?

Jiang Bai couldn't figure it out, so he decided to keep watching to see what he really meant.

Wendy returned empty-handed and turned her attention to Sora.

"Although she left without looking back, I have achieved my goal. At least I know that the Sky Harp is in the church."

He looked at Kong with hopeful eyes. "You are an honorary knight of the Knights Order, a rising star. Why don't you give it a try?"

Kong nodded and went to question the nun, with Paimon following him.

Klee looked up at Wendy with curiosity. "Are you really Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind?"

Children are often prone to taking nonsense seriously, even if it seems ridiculous to adults.

"Hehe~"

Wendy didn't give a reply, she just smiled.

Klee scratched her head in confusion. "Hey, what does that mean?"

She looked at Jiang Bai, hoping he could provide an answer.

Jiang Bai shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.

Little Klee fell into deep thought.

Not long after, Kong also returned empty-handed.

To obtain the Sky Harp, the guild leader, the bishop, and representatives of the people must reach a consensus and sign a document. Without this document, there is no way to obtain the Sky Harp through normal channels.

Even if the troupe leader came in person, the result would be the same.

"Alas, even when facing a hero, they are still stingy with their swords..."

Wendy sighed, "Bycling directly won't work, it seems we'll have to resort to a cleverer approach."

Under Keli's questioning gaze, Jiang Bai pulled Keli back a step, giving the stage to the Knights' rising star.

He's now a member of Liyue. No matter what tricks he uses to take it, if he gets caught, it will cause a diplomatic incident!

If the leader finds out that he stole Mondstadt's Arcana from the Favonius Order and was caught, he'll tear him to pieces!

As for Klee, you actually want a little kid to steal things? Do you have any conscience?

Let's leave such glorious deeds to our brave warriors from afar!

Understanding his meaning, Wendy didn't ask him, but instead looked at Kong and Paimon, "I fully respect free will. Tell me, how would you prefer to take advantage of this?"

He remained silent, so what other clever way could he possibly take advantage of the situation?

It's either robbery or theft. Do you think they can openly steal from the West Wind Cult?

Therefore, there is only one answer.

He covered his face, "Actually, I didn't want to steal anything..."

"Hey, that's a good idea!"

Jiang Bai encouraged him with his eyes, "The arduous task is entrusted to you, our warrior!"

null:"......"

"The guards here seem to go off duty at night, so seize this opportunity, warrior!"

In just a few words, the group finalized their plan to steal something that night.

Kong silently accepted this fact.

Who told him he was the most suitable person to do this?

Jiang Bai suggested, "Let's meet at the statue at eight o'clock tonight."

Wendy readily agreed, "No problem."

Paimon glanced at the sky; it was almost lunchtime. Thinking of the two of them being penniless, she quickly grabbed Jiang Bai, her eyes pleading.

"We haven't had lunch yet!"

Jiang Bai, somewhat wistfully, pulled out 10,000 Mora, saying, "I never thought I'd be lending money to someone one day..."

I used to live on counting the money in my pocket, but now my pocket is fuller.

He didn't know when Xingqiu's auction would be held, but once it was, he would have a large sum of money coming in.

Although they were now wealthy, Jiang Bai couldn't forget the virtues of thrift and frugality. He placed each Mora into Paimon's clasped hands.

"Use it sparingly and remember to pay it back. I don't want my reputation to turn into that of a debt collector."

"Mmm-hmm!" I'll definitely pay it back!

Paimon nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Mora.

Jiang Bai took Ke Li away. It was still early before nightfall, and he planned to go find Abedo.

"Klee, do you know where Abedo is?"

"Yes, Brother Abedo is doing experiments in the workshop." Keli led Jiang Bai the way.

Aberdo's workshop is located in a relatively remote part of Mondstadt. Some of the experiments are quite dangerous, and it would be risky to set them up in a busy area, hence the remote location.

Carrying the lunch they bought at the restaurant, Jiang Bai led Ke Li through the door.

"Brother Abedo!"

At this moment, Abedo was not in the laboratory; there was only Sugar, a girl with glasses and animal ears, in the laboratory.

Upon seeing outsiders arrive, Sugar instantly tensed up.

She is introverted and not good at talking, and doesn't quite know how to get along with people. To put it simply, she has a bit of social anxiety.

Before I could even breathe a sigh of relief upon seeing it was Klee, I saw the stranger behind her.

If the experiment hadn't been ongoing, she could have instantly run into another room and hidden.

"Hello...hello..." She blushed as soon as she opened her mouth to say just one sentence.

"Sister Sugar, where's Brother Abedo?"

Sugar is Abedo's apprentice, so Klee naturally knows her too.

Sugar clasped her hands together, appearing unusually reserved in front of Jiang Bai, a complete stranger.

"The Adventurers' Guild said they got the item that Professor Abedo requested. Professor Abedo went to pick it up and should be back soon."

"Please have a seat, I haven't finished my experiment yet." After saying that, she ran to the lab bench and tried to concentrate on the experiment.

Klee obediently found a place to sit down and didn't touch anything in the lab.

Jiang Bai, on the other hand, watched with curiosity in the laboratory.

This laboratory is many times larger than the one Abedo had in the snow-capped mountains, and it has much more experimental equipment. Compared to the simple cave in the snow-capped mountains, this is a proper alchemy laboratory.

Jiang Bai saw a number of plants on the lab table near Sugar: extra-large dandelion seeds, sweet flowers with exceptionally large central buds, sunset fruits the size of a washbasin, and pine cones that looked exceptionally hard... all neatly arranged.

Each of these plants was labeled with a number.

Looking at the unusual plants, Jiang Bai asked curiously, "These plants seem a bit different from the usual ones?"

Suddenly hearing an unfamiliar voice beside her, Sugar's ears twitched, and she nervously said, "Yes, yes... these are all plants I modified..."

Jiang Bai found it strange that the girl seemed so nervous; he wasn't scary-looking at all...

He gave a very gentle smile, trying to appear harmless, and asked, "Is it still edible?"

Chapter 209 Sweet Flower Paradise

"Yes, I can. I simply improved the characteristics of these plants and enhanced their advantages, without changing their essence."

When talking about his experimental results, Sugar became less nervous.

"For example, this Sweet Flower is a modified version of the Type 9 Sweet Flower, bud number 19. I improved its genetic characteristics to make its bud larger, so it can store more nectar..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Bai's eyes lit up instantly.

Sweet flowers with more nectar!

"Can it be planted?"

Although she didn't know why Jiang Bai suddenly became excited, Sugar was also quite proud of her research results.

"Yes, you can plant them. Just plant them normally."

"Are there any other types of sweet flowers with different characteristics? Like, sweeter ones? Larger ones? With shorter growth cycles?"

"some!"

Sugar led Jiang Bai to his experimental field in the laboratory. The field contained a wide variety of plants, each with a label that described its characteristics and condition in detail.

"Wow!" Looking at the row of neatly planted, yet varied, sweetflowers, Jiang Bai felt as if he had discovered a new continent.

"This is the No. 28 Sweet Flower Modified Version with a special fragrance; the nectar is very thick... This is the No. 12 Sweet Flower Version (4x larger) from the No. 7 Sweet Flower Version; this is the No. 47 Sweet Flower Version (3 heads, multiple plants) from the No. 5 Sweet Flower Version..."

When talking about his research results, Sugar instantly shed his taciturn nature and introduced all the sweet flowers in the experimental field.

Jiang Bai listened and nodded, thinking that this feature was good and that feature was also good.

After Sugar finished her introduction, Jiang Bai looked at her hopefully and asked, "Do you have any seeds? Could you give me some?"

Emerging from her excited state, Sugar returned to her shy demeanor. "Yes... I'm sorry, I got a little too excited and introduced so much..."

Jiang Bai was extremely friendly to Sweet Flower, a major player who possessed various core technologies.

"You're amazing! You've managed to research so many sweet flowers! And all these other plants too. What a tremendous achievement!"

Sugar blushed even more at his praise, and her heels unconsciously rubbed against the ground.

It's just a regular experiment; it's really exaggerated.

Jiang Bai went on and on praising Sugar until she was practically burying her head in the ground, before finally revealing his true intentions.

"Could you give me some seeds? I really love this plant called the sweet flower..."

"No...no problem, which one do you want?"

"I'd like the Type 9, size 28, and I'd also like some Type 7, size 12..."

"Okay, okay..."
