Barbatos noticed that Su Yu called the Ice Queen "she" instead of the usual honorific title. This is a sign of a very close relationship and a metaphor of powerful strength. The gods are transcendent and can never have the same status as ordinary people. The word "she" made Barbatos guess a lot of amazing information. "It seems that the news we got about your discord with the Ice Queen and the Fools is false, and there are serious deficiencies in the assessment of your strength. The Knights of the West Wind believed this information and tried to negotiate a 'compensation agreement' I came to dampen your spirit, but instead you used the trick and successfully captured the top brass of the Knights." "The whole thing was doomed from the beginning, alas." Barbatos analyzed. Su Yu stood with his hands behind his back and said: "In addition to underestimating the enemy, the Knights of the West Wind also have something worthy of 'praise'. For example, they were influenced by your ideas and implemented a long-term discriminatory policy against the old nobles of Mondstadt. In order to suppress the Lawrence family , and he does not hesitate to take advantage of Yula's love and loyalty to the Knights of the West Wind, haha, this will shake the foundation of the Knights of the West." "Hey, hey, I said Prince Winter, you can't accuse me wrongly. In the past hundreds of years, I have never met anyone from the Knights of the West Wind. A free city-state does not need the rule of a monarch. This is my The original intention of establishing it.” Barbatos defended himself, feeling extremely wronged. "Unjustly accusing you?" Su Yu chuckled, "Barbatos, do you still remember the 'Secret Agreement at Leeward'? If you have forgotten, let me help you recall the history..."
More than 1000 years ago, Vanessa led the people of Mondstadt in a conspiracy to overthrow the slavery rule of the Lawrence family and devised a "Secret Pact of Leeward". The content of the secret agreement stated that the Lawrence family sold the entire Mondstadt to neighboring Lisbon. moon. It was precisely because of the exposure of this secret agreement that a large number of soldiers of the Lawrence family, who originally had an advantage, defected and joined Vanessa's revolutionary camp, which directly led to the defeat of the Lawrence family. The reason for this effect is not that the soldiers of the Lawrence family are not intelligent enough, but that the four words signed "Emperor of the Rock King" at the end of this secret agreement are indeed the handwriting of the gods. This kind of persuasion makes it useless for the Lawrence family to defend themselves. After all, the secret is endorsed by the gods. But Su Yu knew the truth of this matter. The Lawrence family has never made a deal with the Rock King Emperor! The signature of "Emperor Rock King" on this secret contract was completely forged by Barbatos. "Prince, there is nothing wrong with me doing this. The slavery rule of the Lawrence family has caused great harm to Mondstadt. No matter what method I use to deal with them, they are the punishment they deserve." Su Yu said: "Of course the Lawrence family's brutal rule was wrong. Their ancestors were tried and sent to the guillotine. The family was bloodbathed and liquidated. They paid their due price. Only Youla's lineage survived. .” "But the most critical problem is that you never clarified this matter to the people of Mondstadt afterwards!" "The people have always believed that the Laurence family is a traitor. Selling out national interests has deepened the resentment of the people of Mondstadt against them. This strong hatred even exceeds the brutal rule itself. So that hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the hatred continues. to date." Su Yu added: "Another forming influence caused the civil exchanges between Mondstadt and Liyue to be almost interrupted in the following hundreds of years, which had a major impact on the relationship between the two countries. In the subconscious of the people of Mondstadt, there has always been They all believe that Liyue was an accomplice of the Lawrence family in their dealings with the Lawrence family, so they are unwilling to interact with them." The smile on Barbatos' face seemed to have frozen. "Prince Zhidong, is what you said true? The Guardian of the Four Winds has never told me about these situations. And the Emperor Rock King, he never mentioned this matter in the several meetings with him." "The Guardians of the Four Winds are your dependents. Even if you, the god, are at fault, they will maintain your dignity and dignity and maintain the same position as you. Emperor Yanwang, he prefers to be a bystander of history, and Non-participant. With this kind of mentality, he will probably be touched unless Liyue's country is overthrown one day, otherwise how can he care about ordinary things." Barbatos was silent. There was only a breeze blowing past my ears. "The freedom that Mondstadt pursues cannot be based on lies. Prince of Solstice, thank you for pointing this out to me. I heard that it only took you three years to reform Solstice into the most powerful nation. Now I completely believe it. You have this talent. Compared with you, I am so incompetent as a governor, I am ashamed." After finishing speaking, Barbatos said mockingly: "The Ice Emperor often tells you stories about me doing nothing, dawdling, and being irresponsible. Even my family members think so. Please give me some time, I It will take care of this problem.”
"Barbatos, you are wrong again. Everyone in the world thinks you are fishing, but I never think so. You just chose to fight alone." "what?" Su Yu looked down at the entire city of Mondstadt and said quietly: "At this moment, the door to Sky Island is at your feet, and you, Barbatos, as the God of Wind, one of the Seven Consuls, have been looking for a way to board Sky Island for many years. " "The act of overstepping the Sky Island may lead to the sanction of heaven at any time. You did not want the people and families of Mondstadt to be affected by your actions, so you chose to act alone." "Drinking in the tavern all day long, or wandering around as a bard, are just to deceive Sky Island's surveillance." Su Yu paused for a moment, and finally looked at the stunned Fengshen. "Barbatos, you actually have the same goal as us." Chapter 38 Ascension Land In Mondplatz, the characters engraved on the base of the huge Aeolus statue translate to: The door to Sky Island. It's just that few people have noticed this detail, and even if they have, it's almost impossible to translate the characters above. It has always been obvious that Barbatos wants to land on Sky Island—— Among the Seven Kingdoms, only Vanessa founded the Knights of the West Wind. When her life was about to end more than 1000 years ago, she landed on Sky Island as a contractor of the Wind God—— The huge wind field on the ground in Mondstadt, where travelers completed their Wings of Wind flight license, is where Vanessa ascended. According to the legend left by Vanessa, she landed on Sky Island and became a god, and has been watching Mondstadt for thousands of years. But the actual situation is that after Vanessa became a god, not only did she never return to Mondstadt, she also never had contact with Barbatos. Barbatos was anxious. He was worried about Vanessa's safety and always wanted to go up to find her and want to know what happened above. Among the seven gods, Barbatos is the longevity god second only to the Rock King Zhongli, living for more than 2600 years. Among the seven gods, he seems to be the weakest one, but he was able to survive the battle that destroyed the ancient kingdom of Kanria 500 years ago. His fighting power is not weak among the seven gods. Only by managing Mondstadt for the sake of heaven can he gain divine power. The reason why he usually appears weak is because he voluntarily cut off contact with the people and voluntarily gave up his right to govern. When he evades this responsibility, his divine power will continue to decline. Whether it's fishing or being irresponsible, this is Barbatos' way to avoid wear and tear. It's also a way to paralyze Sky Island and buy time for him to find a way to board Sky Island. In addition, the information from the Fools mentioned more than once that Barbatos had appeared near the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Canria, seemingly looking for something... However, Su Yu learned from his communication with the Ice Queen that Sky Island was not as beautiful as people imagined at all, and there were huge conspiracies and crises hidden there! Of course, since the Seven Gods of Teyvat have never personally visited Sky Island, the Ice Queen cannot accurately guess the truth there, so she needs to collect the hearts of gods. According to her speculation, by gathering seven God's Hearts, it would be possible to land on Sky Island. By then, all the answers will be revealed... "Prince Winter, I am just a drunken man who dreams of death. If you are trapped in a windless land, I will play the song of the sky." Su Yu thought he would take out the Sky Piano.
In the end, Barbatos took out a wine flask, took a sip of wine, and burped in response. It seems... I have to choose to act crazy and act stupid. Not to mention gods, even ordinary people would not admit it immediately if an outsider learns the biggest secret. What's more, Barbatos' secret may be extremely dangerous. "That's all, it's not convenient for you to share secrets with me in the face of Sky Island's surveillance. But I can understand your difficulties, Barbatos. The Nail of Cold Sky fell from Sky Island that year, destroying the Snow Kingdom of Fendenir, and on Dragon's Back Mountain The ice and snow are still freezing to the bone.” "Sky Island is a sharp sword hanging high above your heads. You have a strong fear of Sky Island. But what can you do? Who makes you Mond the closest to it." Su Yu is familiar with Mondstadt's history. Before the founding of Mondstadt, the natural environment in the Mondstadt area was quite harsh and unsuitable for human survival. Finally, Barbatos transformed the terrain. But the truth behind it is that the peak with the highest altitude in Mondstadt has continued to rise with the geological movement, and finally pierced the false sky and penetrated into the scope of Sky Island. Barbatos once climbed the Pointed Hat Peak, and it was very possible that he could get a glimpse of the secrets of Sky Island, so he immediately used his divine power to transform the terrain of Mondstadt. Pointed Hat Peak was flattened by strong winds. The secret that Barbatos knows is very important. It is very likely that the moment he opens his mouth, the Nail of Cold Sky will fall in Mondstadt again. After being silent for a long time, Barbatos said sadly: "The people of Mondstadt only know that the 'freedom' ordered by the God of Wind is also a kind of unfreedom. But they don't know that the gods who advocate freedom are actually never free. ." Barbatos' answer sounded a bit convoluted and contained a lot of helplessness. But this is enough. Su Yu wanted to know Barbatos' true attitude more than the secret of Sky Island. "The throne of God in the sky has never been reserved for you, but you arrogant people, don't stop here, no one can watch the fire from the other side..." The identity of Barbatos Bard has once again exerted its corresponding value. He seems to want to hint some information through ancient poems, but to outsiders, he sounds like just another Riddler. Su Yu listened quietly, thinking about the cruel road ahead. At the same time, the wind element aura on his body became stronger and stronger. Under Barbatos' guidance intentionally or unintentionally, Su Yu felt that he had become a wisp in a thousand winds. Go against the will of heaven, stand upright to punish the heavens, become immortal, incarnate into hundreds of billions... The wonderful state lasted for about half an hour. When Su Yu came back to his senses, Barbatos's poetry singing ended. Previously at the Wind Dragon Ruins, with the help of Tevalin, he had initially understood the nature of the wind element. At this moment, beside the wind god Barbatos, he touched the mystery of the wind element. At this point, the power of the three elements, ice element, thunder element, and wind element, is under his control. A heart of God that exuded bright light sensed the rich wind element in Su Yu's body and naturally flew into his hand. Barbatos officially handed over the Heart of the Wind God to Su Yu.
"Thank you." "It's a simple task. The stubborn God of Rice Wife is willing to help you, how can I remain indifferent. Besides, today you also helped me realize the problems caused by the 'Leewind's Secret Pact'." Dare to call Thor the "god of stubbornness". It seems that Barbatos has encountered obstacles in front of thunder movies before. The sky cleared up after the rain, and the sky in Mondstadt was as clean as a mirror. Flocks of white pigeons were hovering over the main city of Mondstadt. The shouts of vendors were heard again in the street market. There is an endless stream of pedestrians and tourists. As Su Yu expected, the loss of the Knights of the West Wind had almost no impact on the lives of the people of Mondstadt. "Okay, Prince of Winter, before you go to the next stop, go back to your room and continue to enjoy your 'trophy'. Frankly speaking, I think she should have agreed to the marriage plan proposed by the Ice King when she went to Mondstad two years ago. …” Su Yu smiled lightly and interrupted him. "Barbatos, you incarnate as Wendy, and as this prodigal son, you shop around Mondstadt, drink wine, and break the hearts of countless girls. You may think that others are as carefree as you. But I only have the identity of the Prince of Winter. , and besides, I don’t wear a mask like the eleven executive officers, so I have to cherish this feather.” Barbatos is probably the most dissolute of the seven gods. Even Su Yu suspected that this guy had had a bloody love affair with Vanessa. "Ha ha……" In a burst of awkward yet polite laughter, Barbatos disappeared into the wind. I just don’t know what year or month it will appear next. Chapter 39 Just a foodie Goethe Hotel. The guards of the Lawrence family were extremely nervous, and the hands holding the winter firearms were trembling slightly. Standing in front of them was a polite, gentle man with long brown hair parted in the middle and two blue-green pupils, shining with intelligence. "Mr. Abedo... why did you come back suddenly if you weren't doing research on the snow?" Schubert was as uneasy as the guards around him. In Mondstadt, the person he feared most, besides Grand Commander Falga, was Abedo. Abedo is usually very low-key, but Commander Falga usually treats him with courtesy, because after many tentative encounters between the two, Commander Falga actually said that he could not figure out Abedo's limits. This shows that Its strength is so strong. Behind the gentle smile, there is amazing fighting power. "It's like this. I heard something happened in Mondstadt in the morning. I was worried about my sister Keli, so I came back to have a look. Schubert, you know, her mother asked me to take care of her baby daughter before she left. But I I was stopped at the headquarters of the Knights of the West Wind, and the guards said they would take me here to find you.” "Oh, that's right. The situation is a bit complicated. I'll explain it to you later. In short, Keli is safe and everyone is fine. But if you want to see her, you need to ask His Highness the Prince to make a decision." He had no way of dealing with this kind of hot potato, so it was better for the prince to handle it himself. Schubert turned back, looked at Su Yu who was sitting on the sofa in the hall, and introduced respectfully: "Your Highness, this is Mr. Albedo, the chief alchemist and captain of the investigation team of the Knights of the West Wind, and also Keli's guardian. " Abedo walked straight to Su Yu and looked at Su Yu up and down, as if thinking.
"Like me, you exude the breath of the sea of stars. Well, there is also a very special smell of curse... Judging from the smell, it is similar to the immortal curse on those Qiuqiu people, but there are differences." After finishing his speech like a scholar's research, Albedo realized something was wrong and said with a shy smile: "Prince Winter, please forgive my rashness. The occupational disease has occurred again. Seeing new and unknown things always makes me obsessed. " "You're right. This is a curse from heaven that tortures my body day and night. Do you have a solution? Abedo." Although he had no hope, Su Yu still wanted to try to ask his opinion. After all, his master was Reindot, a great alchemist known as "gold" in the ancient country of Canria. In fact, he was also the top alchemist in Tewater.
