Chapter 777: Even Alice is scared back!
Lisa hurried into Qin's office holding the crystal ball that detected the earth's veins.
Qin was busy processing documents. When she heard the door open, she looked up and saw Lisa standing at the door with an anxious look on her face.
Before Qin could ask, Lisa couldn't wait to say, "Qin, something happened."
Qin's heart tightened. She immediately put down the documents in her hand, stood up, looked at Lisa with concern, and asked, "What's wrong? Judging from your appearance, this time it shouldn't be a drunkard causing trouble."
Lisa took a deep breath, then slowly took out the crystal ball that detected the earth veins and said, "The earth veins are messed up."
When Qin heard this, she was so scared that she almost screamed... and subconsciously thought that Tevarin had gone crazy again.
"Could it be that the East Wind Dragon 'Twarin' has a problem again?"
Lisa quickly shook her head and explained, "No, the situation this time is more serious than last time. It should be a bigger crisis. We must quickly mobilize the members of the Knights and prepare for defense."
Qin frowned tightly, realizing the seriousness of the problem.
She acted decisively and immediately issued an order for the members of the Knights to assemble quickly and prepare to deal with the possible crisis.
Just as Jean and Lisa were making intensive preparations, unprecedented disturbances in the earth's veins occurred throughout Mondstadt.
The elements began to become restless, and the rhythm of the flow of the earth veins was completely disrupted.
The originally calm wind became violent, and the sky became dark and dim, as if doomsday had come.
At the Dawn Winery, Diluk stood in front of the window, staring at the snowflakes falling outside, and was completely stunned.
It is really unusual for snowflakes to fall at this time.
What's going on? Why has Mond's climate become so abnormal?
Rather, it is better to say that Mondstadt has returned to its original appearance... A long time ago, Mondstadt was an ice field...
……
At this moment, on a high ground outside Mondstadt, Kong stood there, quietly looking at the Mondstadt in front of him.
It was completely different from the last time he came. At that time, he led the Abyss Cult to attack Mondstadt under the cover of night, but was stopped by his brother-in-law.
Now, with his brother-in-law, he could easily flatten Mondstadt, but he was still unsure, for the simple reason that his sister and niece was in the hands of the God of Wind!
At this time, the Abyss Apostle, Torrent, walked up to Kong and reported to him, "Your Highness, we have mobilized all the forces we can.
With just one order from you, we can raze Mondstadt to the ground in no time!"
Sora nodded slightly, approving of Riptide's work.
"Okay, wait for my brother-in-law to come. Now everyone should not act rashly!"
Just as Kong was about to give the order, Dainsleb beside him suddenly said, "Kong, the strength of the Abyss Cult... seems to have increased a lot..."
Hearing what Dainsleb said, Jiliu suddenly felt unhappy.
He said sarcastically, "Dain, what are you asking about? This is the secret of our Abyss Cult!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Kong quickly spoke up to stop them.
"Alright, stop arguing! Riptide, if you have the energy to argue with Dain, you might as well save it for dealing with a possible attack from the Wind God!"
Sora's intimidating words made the surrounding air tremble.
The originally surging torrent wilted instantly under the shock of the roar and lost its previous momentum.
Seeing this, Kong sighed helplessly.
He secretly sighed in his heart, if only Yuan Shang was here, it would be great. After all, among his subordinates, Yuan Shang was the most convenient to use.
Although the other members have some abilities, they seem to have only muscles in their brains and lack flexibility and adaptability.
Of course, the most important thing is the ability to read people's expressions...
Just as Kong was sighing, Shao Yun, who had settled Shen He, hurried over.
He asked Kong anxiously, "Brother-in-law, how is the manpower mobilization going?"
Seeing his good brother-in-law finally coming back, Sora hurriedly stepped forward and replied:
"I have already mobilized all the forces that can be mobilized, not only the cursed citizens, but also all the combat forces of the Abyss Cult that can be mobilized. All of them have been mobilized."
Then, Kong added, "By the way, I also mobilized some of the cursed Kanreya warriors from the Layered Abyss."
When Shao Yun heard the words "Layered Rock Abyss", his eyes widened and he asked in surprise, "Layered Rock Abyss? So, the guy called Halfdan is here too?"
Before he finished speaking, a member of the Black Snake Clan came forward.
Shao Yun looked carefully and found that it was indeed Halfdan!
Shao Yun looked at Halfdan, then at the few Deep Sin Baptists and the endless Abyss Army, and muttered to himself, "This lineup... is really luxurious."
Kong looked at the towering walls of Mondstadt, narrowed his eyes, and said, "For my sister, I must do my best!"
Shao Yun, who was standing by, was also watching Mond City. He patted Kong on the shoulder and said calmly, "I'll go to Mond City first to check out the situation. Wait for my news."
"Unless it is absolutely necessary, a large-scale attack is still the worst option. After all, Barbatos has hostages..."
Kong nodded in agreement, he knew that Shao Yun's suggestion was wise.
Since his sister was held hostage by the God of Wind, negotiation was undoubtedly the best option at the moment.
At the same time, at the gate of Mondstadt, Captain Jean was personally directing some knights of the Knights Templar to evacuate the people in a tense and orderly manner.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Qin gave the order decisively.
"Quick, close the door!"
However, just before the gate was about to fall, Captain Qin suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure on horseback galloping towards him on the bridge.
"Wait a minute, don't close the city gate yet! There are still people!" Qin shouted loudly, and her voice echoed at the city gate.
The figure on the bridge was getting closer and closer. Finally, Qin saw clearly who it was. It was Shao Yun.
He rode Boadicea and slowly arrived at the city gate.
Qin saw Shao Yun coming, not knowing whether to be happy or feel awkward, and said, "Mr. Shao Yun, you are here at a really bad time."
Shao Yun, who was riding on a horse, looked at Qin, who was full of worry, and said meaningfully: "Maybe I came just in time."
Qin thought Shao Yun was just going back to Mondstadt for a stroll, so she said, "Anyway, come in and take shelter quickly. Don't think about dealing with the trouble alone like you did last time."
Shao Yun was not here to save Mond, or rather, he was here to bring disaster to Mond.
Seeing that Qin didn't realize the problem at all, Shao Yun didn't rush to show his true face. He said calmly: "Thank you for your kindness. I'd rather obey you than be respectful."
The next second after Shao Yun walked into Mond City, the gate behind him fell, completely closing the gate of Mond City.
When Shao Yun was about to leave the city gate and walk into Mondstadt, Qin called him and said, "By the way, Mr. Shao Yun, can I ask you for a favor?"
Shao Yun was stunned and asked, "What?"
Jean answered truthfully: "Please, take care of Klee for me. I need to lead the Knights to stabilize the order of Mondstadt. I am really too busy to do that."
Shao Yun originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought of Keli's innocent face and now that he had lost his wife and children, he readily agreed.
"No problem, leave it to me."
Perhaps the only one who can comfort me now is Klee...
……
Inside the confinement room at the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius, there was silence.
Kelly was feeling very frustrated because she couldn't go out to play. She lay on the cold floor, holding a crayon tightly in her hand, silently scribbling on the paper.
Just when Keli was secretly sad, the door of the confinement room was gently pushed open, and Shao Yun's figure appeared at the door.
"Keli, are you there?" Shao Yun said softly.
Keli suddenly raised her head, and the moment she saw Shao Yun, the sadness in her eyes was instantly replaced by joy.
She immediately dropped the crayon in her hand and ran to Shao Yun.
“Brother Shao Yun!” Ke Li hugged Shao Yun’s thighs tightly, raised her head, and looked at him with tears in her eyes, “Captain Qin doesn’t keep his word!”
Shao Yun looked down at the aggrieved little girl in front of him. His broken heart was slightly healed at this moment.
No matter how crazy you are, you cannot hurt children. This is the bottom line.
He slowly squatted down, looked at Keli at eye level, gently touched her cheek, and asked softly, "What's wrong, Keli?"
Keli pouted and said pitifully, "Keli has been very well behaved recently. Captain Qin originally promised her that she would take Keli out to play today."
"But, just now, Captain Qin suddenly changed his mind and didn't want to take us out to play, wuwuwu..."
As she spoke, Kelly began to sob.
Shao Yun looked at her distressedly and quickly comforted her: "Don't cry, Keli... Captain Qin also encountered an irresistible problem, and she couldn't do anything about it. Let me play with you..."
……
Time passed by unknowingly, and no one knew how much time had passed. In the captain's office of the Knights of Favonius headquarters, Captain Jean finally arranged all the defenses.
She breathed a sigh of relief, then dragged her somewhat tired body back to her office.
As the command center of the entire Mondstadt defense, the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius bears the heavy responsibility of being the brain.
And Captain Qin is the brain within this brain, and he needs to coordinate the overall situation and ensure that there are no mistakes in every link.
However, just as Captain Qin was about to take a breath, the sudden sound of a door breaking broke the silence of the office.
She looked up in surprise, only to see a woman with a face very similar to Klee, wearing a costume very similar to Lisa's "Rose Witch" witch costume, rushing straight into her office.
This woman is Ms. Alice!
Her appearance caught Captain Qin off guard, and what was even more unexpected to Captain Qin was that Ms. Alice would lose her composure like this.
Just half an hour ago, Nico, who is also a member of the Witch Club, told Alice a shocking news.
In other words, the wind god Barbatos actually kidnapped the daughter of Ying, Paimon and Shao Yun!
When Alice rushed back to Mond, she found that the army of the abyss had also appeared in Mond!
Alice couldn't believe her ears and her eyes!
How many tons of fake wine did this guy Barbatos drink to dare to do such a thing!
Anger and worry intertwined in Alice's heart. She could no longer remain calm, so she kicked open the door of Captain Qin's office and shouted at the top of her lungs like a mad beast: "Where's my daughter!"
Qin looked at Alice who had suddenly returned, and was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. What was going on? Did she come back specifically to deal with the impending crisis in Mond?
"Ms. Alice? You? Why did you suddenly..." Qin said incoherently.
Alice rushed forward, grabbed Qin's shoulders, and shouted like a lunatic: "Where's my daughter!"
It’s no wonder that Alice is so crazy, Kelly is her precious daughter!
Qin looked at the somewhat crazy Alice, pointed outside the door in horror and said, "Ke Li, she is in the confinement room, Mr. Shao Yun is taking care of her..."
When Alice heard that her daughter was being taken care of by the most dangerous person in all of Teyvat, she felt like she was going to go crazy in the next second.
Then, Alice let go of Qin's shoulders and crawled towards the confinement room.
Keli! Please don't get into any trouble!
