When it comes to the title of God of Wind, Diluk decisively follows suit. Qin shook her head and smiled, "That's an interesting and memorable story." The prayer priest and the reserve knight accidentally came across the mythical scene of the God of Wind playing and the East Wind Dragon dancing, which was followed by an unexpected leak of information, and then they all went to apologize, and finally returned to Mondstadt to the encouragement and music of the God of Wind. Out of trust in Diluk's ability and character, Qin also recounted the Wind God's evaluation of the Seven Kingdoms. After hearing this, Diluk frowned deeply: "Are all nations in such a state of turmoil today? Mondstadt may not be immune to this. The current difficulties seem to be just the beginning." "I later guessed that the musician may have awakened for this reason. When the storms of the six countries came, he wanted to protect Mondstadt with the gentlest wind, just like in the past. What a great mercy! Praise the wind god Barbatos, praise the musician!" Qin couldn't help but pray for the reading of the poem. Diluk was silent. He had always thought that Mondstadt had a lot of problems. But now it seemed that it was not just Mondstadt, but the entire Teyvat that was in trouble. In fact, Mondstadt had the least problems. Then, he also unconsciously gave a thumbs up. He was grateful for the protection of the Wind God in his heart, and decided to increase the activities of the Night Elves in the future and do more for Mondstadt and the Wind God.
…… Wendy sniffed the air at her fingertips, imagining the feeling of her hair brushing against the back of her hand just as she moved away from Qin's shoulders. "Alas, our relationship is still not close enough. I really want to be closer..." It is said that what is worrying is not the scarcity but the inequality. It would be fine if everyone was alone, but now the other two can get close to each other but she can't, which makes her very uncomfortable. "No, no, Wendy, you have to cheer up. They have become obsessed with women and have no desire to make progress. Now I am the only one who can shoulder the heavy responsibility. Sooner or later, I will be the most helpless one!" Wendy cheered herself up. Just like that, it floated all the way into Liyue. Because Zhong Li was in Liyue Harbor, Wendy simply landed on the top of the nearby Tianheng Mountain. Then she boiled the spring water sent by Qianfeng and set out the tea set. The powerful wind elemental power was not concealed, and even the immortals in Jueyunjian and Dihuazhou couldn't help but look up and pay attention, and naturally it couldn't be hidden from the perception of the Rock God. Zhong Li quickly reached the top of the mountain, came to the tea table prepared by Wendy, and sat down. Wendy pushed the tea over respectfully. "Master Yanshen, please~~" "Grandpa?" Zhong Li was surprised, looking at the vigorous and bright new demon god opposite him, he felt a little amused. Could the title of Grandpa be a legacy of your Fengshen clan? But since Wendy was so polite and used such a title, Zhong Li unconsciously moved to the position of an elder. Looking at Wendy, his eyes suddenly softened a lot. "Mm, the fragrance is so fragrant, it's good tea." "Of course. I spent a lot of time searching for this precious ingredient in the deep mountains and forests, and I bought it from the Dawn Winery in Mondstadt for a large sum of money." "Thank you for your expense. Liyue and Mond have been friendly for thousands of years. Barbatos and I are also old acquaintances. You don't need to be so polite."
Zhong Li's expression became more gentle. This little devil is quite sensible. Zhong Li was always willing to help, and seeing how polite he was, he immediately decided that if the little girl really needed any help in the future, he would do his best to help her. Wendy smiled cutely, and then handed over a gift box in a more polite manner. "This is a souvenir. Please excuse my intrusion." "You're welcome. So, how can I help you?" "Well, I won't keep you in suspense. To be honest, the Abyss Cult has been making moves in Mondstadt recently. Various signs show that they are preparing to make a move on Tvarin. The Rock God also knows that Tvarin swallowed the poisonous blood of the evil dragon in the battle of Durin and has been suffering for five hundred years. I felt that it was not good, and after discussing with Tvarin, I temporarily asked him to find another place to stay and stop the actions of the Abyss Cult. But..." "But the Abyss Cult cannot be underestimated. They will not give up easily if their goal is not achieved. They may also be harboring a bigger conspiracy. The threat of the Abyss Cult is not a matter for one country or one god. If you need anything, please let me know. I will do my best to help you." Zhong Li's eyes suddenly fixed, revealing his majestic and unyielding martial god demeanor. When Barbatos first came to visit, he thought he was asking for help, but he turned out to be looking for a drink, which confused Morax for a long time. Now, when the second generation of the Wind God first came to visit, Zhong Li was prepared to just chat and drink, but he didn't expect that he really had a serious matter, and he immediately became completely serious. Wendy Chicken nodded. "That's it. I'm still keeping an eye on the Abyss Cult, but Barbatos is still asleep. As the Lord of the Thousand Winds, I can't find any trace of him at the moment. If I were to do it alone, I really have no experience and I'm not sure. I hope that if there is any change, you can be kind enough to help me... I'll be called Barbatos to repay you in the future!" Wendy looked at Zhong Li pitifully, as he was young and helpless and couldn't find his parents, so he had to ask Uncle Wang next door for help. Zhong Li couldn't help but laugh, as if he was seeing the young Ganyu. "There is no need to do so. We are allies, and this is about the Abyss, so we should work together. In addition, I can sense the surging wind element in you, which is not weak among the Seven Gods. There is no need to belittle yourself." "That's true. I also feel that neither Tevarin nor Andrius can defeat me. But that's the abyss. Anyone would shudder. And Barbatos refuses to wake up. I'm alone in it. It would be strange if I wasn't scared." "Barbatos... I'm afraid I don't have much time left, so I may not be able to help you. You can understand the meaning of your birth at this time." Zhong Li said this with a look of melancholy that could not be concealed. Another old friend is about to leave. As time goes by, will he be the stubborn one who survives the millennium of wind, frost and flowing water until the end? Wendy didn't say anything, but just poured tea for Zhong Li silently - Barbatos, I never said anything bad about you. When all the demons in the world spread the news that your death is approaching, don't blame me. Chapter 51 Barbatos has a good successor "World Tree?" With proper etiquette and the filter of being a junior, Zhong Li and Wendy had a very harmonious conversation. He answered many of Wendy's questions without realizing it, and finally mentioned this rather sensitive word. Wendy held her chin with one hand and poured tea for Zhong Li with the other, not looking very serious and leisurely. She said in a casual tone, as if she was just chatting about something: "Isn't Sumi-no-kami specifically responsible for this? However, the Sumi-no-kami and the grass-goddess I saw were really...sigh! It's hard to put it into words. I wonder if this will have any impact." To be honest, the blood pressure stimulation of Sumi Kuniku is not much better than that of Inazuma. It's just that Anqi hasn't really set foot in Sumi yet. Unlike in Inazuma, where she first agreed to save Inazuma from Chio who lent her body, and then witnessed the old man in the village being burned to death without even waiting to die, a series of personal experiences directly triggered her emotions. However, now Angie must be thankful that she did not act rashly. If they had acted rashly before, and if they had caused any significant impact on the World Tree without knowing it - although Tenli might still be fighting Honkai Impact 3, there was no guarantee that the Shadow of Tenli or the Nth Throne would come and fight Angie desperately.
Trying too hard is not good! Desperately No! Angel is a kind person who doesn't like fighting. As a dark boss, only real interests are real. "This……" Zhong Li saw Wendy tilting her head, looking confused as if she felt something was wrong but didn't take it too seriously, and couldn't help but look in the direction of Sumi. The young demon was "ignorant and ignorant" and did not realize the seriousness of the matter. Zhong Li is different. As the oldest god in the world, he knows that the World Tree is related to the history and knowledge of the world, and it is also the place where the earth veins converge. The slightest problem will affect the entire body. To some extent, governing Sumire is the Grass God's second mission, and protecting the World Tree is his first mission. Zhong Li knew that Wendy was the God of Thousand Winds and was as well-informed as Barbatos, so he asked: "What is Sumi's current situation?" "Well, the most outrageous thing is that the Grass God was imprisoned by the Ministry of Education, and there was no resistance. It seems that he has not set foot in the world for five hundred years. Now Sumi only knows about the Great Compassionate Tree King and the Ministry of Education, but does not know about the Grass God. Sumi himself is very confused, talking about the irreconcilable contradiction between the desert and the rainforest, the spread of the dead zone and the devil scale disease, the secret circulation of taboo knowledge, and the scattered and chaotic family of the Tree King... It looks like it would not be surprising if it exploded at any time." Wendy shared the overall situation she saw, then spread her hands, with a confused look on her face as if she had no idea what Kusagami and Sumi were up to. “Has it come to this?” Zhong Li was shocked when he heard this. The seven gods each have their own territories and rarely interfere in other countries. Zhong Li roughly knew about Xumi's movements from the rumors in Liyue, but it was definitely not what Wendy said. At most, the Grass God had withdrawn from the world and the Ministry of Religion ruled on his behalf. This situation was not uncommon in the Seven Kingdoms. As the god of another country, Zhong Li had no right to criticize. Then Zhong Li realized that the people who interacted with Xumi and Liyue were mostly merchants and low-level scholars, so they naturally could not know such in-depth information. It was even questionable whether the Ministry of Education could have such a comprehensive understanding of Xumi's national conditions. "Voluntarily imprisoned? If we don't hear about the Grass God for another 500 years, will his faith be enough to maintain his divine power and protect the World Tree?" Zhong Li's brows gradually frowned. Zhong Li has no right to interfere in the political power of other countries. But as for the World Tree, all the Seven Gods must be concerned. "It's a difficult decision. If I don't go, I'll feel uneasy. After all, if something happens to Sumi and the World Tree, Liyue will be the first to be affected. But if I go directly to Sumi, it will inevitably be aggressive, which goes against the principle of the Seven Gods ruling the world. What should I do?" Zhong Li subconsciously took a sip of tea and looked across, where he saw the young demon god gazing at Liyue Harbor, his eyes full of curiosity and vitality. Suddenly, everything became clear. "The World Tree is crucial to the survival of Teyvat. Even the Seven Gods are affected by it. It is very important. Lord of the Thousand Winds... what is your name?" "Beyana, the fighting god Beyana! Of course in this form, I prefer you to call me Wendy." Wendy raised her hands and smiled brightly. Zhong Li raised his eyebrows.
"Why is it Dou Shen?" "Because freedom doesn't come out of thin air. There are constraints everywhere in this world that make people unhappy. To gain freedom, you need to fight. Just like the freedom that Barbatos gave to the people of Mond, it was also gained by fighting against tyrants. If you fight for freedom, then freedom will survive. If you compromise for freedom, then freedom will die. So I want to say no to all the constraints that hinder Mond's freedom. That's what I think." Wendy made a cross with her hands and straightened her proud chest, brimming with confidence. Zhong Li was silent, and then showed a look of relief and envy. "Barbatos chose to give freedom, and you chose to defend freedom. Therefore, Barbatos is the god of freedom, and you are the god of struggle. That's fine." Each of the seven gods represents an element, so their powers are indeed inherited from one another, but their ideas are not. For example, the Great Compassionate Tree King ruled Sumire with benevolence and tolerance, while the Little Grass God seemed to be withdrawing from the world. For example, the Thunder God five hundred years ago cared about the people and ruled the country with benevolence, while the Thunder God today chose eternity. Therefore, the god of Mondstadt is always the god of wind, but not necessarily the god of freedom. The philosophy chosen by Wendy is not exactly the same as Barbatos's, but it is a continuation and update of the concept of freedom. In Zhong Li's heart, he also hopes that the next successor can recognize his ideals and path for Liyue. But not to copy him, but to inherit and even surpass him on his basis. "That's great. At least in terms of succession, Barbatos has the good fortune that all the seven gods should envy. Stay tuned!" Zhong Li finished drinking the tea in the cup. Then, he looked at Wendy with a gentler look, full of admiration. Wendy pursed her face in embarrassment, as if she was a little ashamed of being praised. Zhong Lihui smiled and then said: "In that case, as the Wind God who has yet to take over, are you interested in making a diplomatic mission to Sumi, Wendy?" "what?" Wendy was stunned for a moment. Then she looked "shocked": "Sume? Why? I don't have such a plan. I feel that the Grass God is not good at fighting, and he is also the guardian of the World Tree. I don't plan to invite him. Isn't it enough to have your help in Mondstadt? Besides, it feels like a mess there. I always feel that it is easy to get into trouble if I go there. I don't want to make enemies with the Grass God by accident." Wendy shrank her neck with a bit of "resistance" and a bit of "shock". Zhong Li suddenly found it funny. But he could also understand why a demon god who was born only a few days ago would be curious and timid about the unfamiliar Seven Gods of the Earthly World. "I will send another messenger to accompany you, representing Liyue and Mondstadt, to ask about the Little Grass God's recent situation and whether he needs any help in protecting the World Tree. After all, this is a matter concerning the survival of Teyvat. It is only natural for us to show some concern after not having had any contact for five hundred years." "Ah, this... Barbatos hasn't woken up yet, and I haven't met him yet. Isn't it inappropriate for me to represent Mondstadt?" "That's fine. Barbatos and I are old acquaintances, and I know his character. He will be flexible in order to confirm the situation of the World Tree. In return, before Barbatos wakes up, if Mondstadt has any difficulties, including those outside the Abyss Cult, you can always come to me." Zhong Li made an offer that he could not refuse, even though it was something he was willing to do. Chapter 52: Do you still have the shame to not express your feelings? Zhong Li did not lie, he was indeed very familiar with Barbatos and knew that Barbatos would agree to this matter - it would be better to say that if the lazy Wind God was awake, he would definitely want his successor to run errands for such a matter. Wendy's eyes lit up immediately and she slapped the table. “I did it!”
The little devil on the opposite side looked shrewd as if he had made a fortune. To Zhong Li, who had seen everything in the world, it seemed a little silly. However, he would not think that this little demon god was really so naive. His first reaction after birth was to summon the Thousand Winds to check on the situation in Teyvat. After discovering the actions of the Abyss Cult, he decisively communicated with Tevarin and quickly came to Liyue to seek support. These actions all show that the second-generation wind god is a smart, rational and patriotic god. The reason why he is so lively and innocent is probably because when facing the seniors from friendly countries, he let go of the pressure and vigilance of the deep, and unconsciously exposed his immature side? "I'm Liyue, not bad, right?"
