Chapter 872: Message from Capitano
Shao Yun was about to go out for patrol outside the Holy Fire Arena when suddenly, Capitano came hurriedly.
Capitano walked straight to Shao Yun, blocked his way, and asked anxiously, "Where's Mavica?"
Shao Yun pointed to the office behind him and replied, "I finished my speech and went to rest. What's wrong?"
When Capitano heard this answer, he said, "I need to talk to Mavica!" and was about to walk into the conference room.
Seeing this, Shao Yun quickly reached out to stop him and said, "Mavica needs to rest now. She is a human being. Give her some time."
Capitano looked at Shao Yun standing in front of him and said impatiently:
"There is no time now. I think we need to immediately formulate a strategy to deal with the next invasion of the Abyss while the invasion of the Abyss is slackening!"
Shao Yun knows that you, Capitano, are very anxious, but don't be anxious yet. I have finally managed to calm Mavica down, so don't provoke her.
"That has to wait until Mavica has rested enough!" Shao Yun sighed helplessly, "You've seen the tragic situation at the Holy Fire Arena. She needs time to recover."
"If you feel like you have nothing to do, come with me on a field patrol. We might meet someone who needs our help!"
As he spoke, Shao Yun pointed to the road leading out of the Holy Fire Arena.
Capitano was not moved at all, and said righteously: "Listen to me, we don't have time to waste!"
"Since you mentioned the Holy Fire Arena, think about the children who were brutally killed by the Beast Realm Hounds. Do you want to see such a tragic scene again?"
Shao Yun's expression also became solemn. He pushed Capitano away and reminded him in a serious tone:
"Do you think everyone can stay calm and clean up the scene like we did when faced with dozens of children dying tragically?"
"Give Mavica some time. She needs to adjust herself so that she can better deal with what's coming next."
After being pushed away by Shao Yun, Capitano regained his balance, but his emotions were still very high, and he said excitedly:
"But if she doesn't come up with the next strategy now, more innocent people will be sacrificed! We can't just sit back and watch!"
Shao Yun looked at the emotional Capitano, pointed at himself, then pointed at him, and said:
"That's why we're here to help, isn't it? Otherwise, why do you think we're here for? Otherwise, go ask your Ice Queen to come and help in person!"
"She was more heartbroken than anyone else when she saw so many people die. Wait until tomorrow and I'll come with you to discuss this with Mavica, okay?"
After listening to what Shao Yun said, Capitano calmed down a little and let his emotions gradually calm down.
Then, he nodded gently and responded: "Hey... Sorry, I was a little emotional just now..."
Shao Yun looked at Capitano who had calmed down, slowly put down the hand that was originally blocking Capitano, and then said:
"Now, I have to go help. It's probably a mess out there, I have to go check out the situation."
Capitano watched Shao Yun prepare to leave, walked quickly to Shao Yun, and said, "Take me with you, I also need to check on the guard post I set up in the wild."
Shao Yun looked at Capitano and nodded in agreement.
……
On the way to Nata, Shao Yun rode his majestic apocalypse horse "War" and moved forward slowly.
The horse's mane, tail and hooves were all burning with flames, looking extremely spectacular against the sky shrouded by the abyss.
Capitano, who was standing by, couldn't help but take a few more glances at this unique horse and took the initiative to ask, "I have a few questions for you. Can we talk about it now?"
Shao Yun turned his head, glanced at Capitano, then nodded, motioning him to continue.
Capitano pointed at the apocalypse horse "War" that Shao Yun was riding and asked, "What are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? I have never heard of this name before."
Seeing that Capitano asked about the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse", Shao Yun simply explained: "You can understand it as a sign of the end of the world."
When Capitano heard the words "signs of the end of the world", he quickly asked further: "I don't understand, can you explain it to me?"
Shao Yun scratched his head and began to sort out his thoughts in his mind, then slowly replied: "Well... how should I put it, I suspect that the Abyss made a deal with a devil and let the Four Riders of Apocalypse help the Abyss invade Nata."
"Of course, this is just my suspicion. I don't have any solid evidence."
"The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Plague, War, Famine, and Death. It is the power of 'War' that enables the monsters of the Abyss to resist the Holy Fire."
Capitano muttered quietly: "Giving the Abyss Monsters the ability to resist the Holy Fire... the power of 'War'?"
Capitano was silent for a moment, looking thoughtful. Then he looked at Shao Yun and asked, "I think I understand. Are you sure you can tame all the so-called Four Riders of Apocalypse?"
Shao Yun hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully: "It's about the same, as long as there are no unexpected situations, so I still can't guarantee it."
Seeing this, Capitano continued, "If you can't tame them, can you find a way to destroy the 'Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse' you mentioned?"
After listening to Capitano's idea, Shao Yun patiently explained: "I guess that in order to completely dissipate the Apocalypse Horse, you must be able to eliminate plague, war, famine and death in the world."
"Only when this is done will the Apocalypse Horses truly disappear. Otherwise, they will exist forever until the end of the world."
Then, Shao Yun emphasized, "This is why Nata will face destruction if I don't tame them. Do you understand?"
After listening to Shao Yun's answers, Capitano nodded thoughtfully.
"So, how can I help?
Seeing that Capitano wanted to help him, Shao Yun replied: "There should be no horses in Nata, so as long as you see those very strange horses, they must be Apocalypse horses without a doubt!"
"When the time comes, notify me in time and don't handle it yourself to avoid unexpected dangers."
Capitano nodded quickly and responded, "Okay, I understand."
At this moment, Capitano remembered the thing he had mentioned to Shao Yun before.
"By the way, there is one more thing. The Ice Queen has replied to my letter regarding the Wind God kidnapping Ying, Paimon and your daughter."
When Shao Yun heard Capitano talking about the God of Wind, he shouted uncontrollably, "Listen, this is the grudge between me and the God of Wind. I will handle it myself!"
Seeing this, Capitano quickly comforted him: "Calm down, Shao Yun. I know how deep the hatred in your heart is, but the situation is different now."
"The Queen of Winter is helping you. You can't act impulsively."
Shao Yun tightened the horse's reins and slowly stopped the horse.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions, and then said, "Listen, I've made it very clear."
"From the moment that bastard Barbatos kidnapped my wife, there were only two outcomes. Either he died or I died. Otherwise, none of this would end."
"For the safety of my wife and daughter, and to deter everyone, the moment I get my wife and daughter back, all of this will be over."
Shao Yun continued: "I will not give Barbatos any more chances, and I will not let anyone hurt my family again."
Capitano understood Shao Yun's idea, but he still wanted to persuade Shao Yun not to take extreme measures.
"Shao Yun, you can actually intimidate your enemies without killing them."
"When the time comes, we can find other ways to get Barbatos punished while also protecting your family."
However, Shao Yun simply refused to listen to Capitano's advice.
He became more and more agitated, and shouted, "My biggest mistake was not killing Barbatos in the Whispering Forest! Temporary tolerance will only make others worse!"
Capitano looked at Shao Yun, who was emotional and yelling in front of him, and knew that his plan to stabilize Shao Yun had failed.
"Whether you like it or not, I have reported your affairs truthfully to the Queen of Winter," said Capitano.
"When the Queen learned of this, she immediately dispatched an enforcer to Mondstadt to deal with the situation."
When Shao Yun heard that the Ice God actually sent people to clean up the mess left by the Wind God, he calmed down a little.
"I want to know, who did you send to Mond?"
Capitano answered without hesitation: "It's Alechino. You should know something about her."
When Shao Yun heard this, he immediately showed an awkward smile.
"Alechino... well, she is indeed a very good candidate. Haha..." Shao Yun laughed dryly.
Seeing this, Capitano added, "The Queen herself asked Alecino to go. I heard that when Alecino heard that the Wind God kidnapped your wife and children, she lost her composure in front of the Queen."
Alechino was always calm and composed, so the news must have had a big impact on her to make her lose her composure like this.
“I guess she didn’t expect that the God of Wind would be so brave.” Shao Yun sighed.
Capitano continued to reveal the details of what happened to Shao Yun.
"Originally, the Doctor really wanted to go to Mondstadt."
"His idea is very simple. Since you are sure to kill the Wind God, he wants to make a deal with you. Give him the body of the Wind God after his death for research."
"But the next second, he was scolded by the Ice Queen."
When Shao Yun heard that the "doctor", the second-in-command of the Fatui executive, wanted to study the body of the God of Wind, he almost couldn't think of a suitable gift to describe him.
"This is absolutely crazy! But it's expected..."
Capitano helplessly let out two dry laughs from his throat and said, "Yes, he is such an academic lunatic without any human emotions."
"For him, studying the body of God is a rare opportunity."
The cold and crazy image of "Doctor" emerged in Shao Yun's mind.
He shook his head and sighed: "An academic madman without human emotions... This description couldn't be more appropriate."
