Explorer of Teyvat

Beneath Longji Snow Mountain·Adventurer Camp,

Xiangling and Diona, who had just come down the mountain, reported the dangerous things to the Adventurers Association.

Before the Adventurers Association could organize manpower to investigate,

Everyone saw the Lawrence emblem blooming on the top of the snow mountain.

"What is that?" Even in Mondstadt, there were people who didn't recognize Lawrence's emblem, and an adventurer immediately asked.

"It's the emblem of the Lawrence family, but why is it on the top of a snow mountain? What does this mean? The Lawrence family conquered the snow mountain?"

Some adventurers are guessing what happened,

However, Xiangling and Diona looked at each other and felt that it might be related to the previous malicious personnel.

But it is not advisable to make unfounded guesses.

"What are you thinking?"

A familiar voice sounded from behind,

Xiangling raised her brows and smiled: "Brother Dao Yi, why are you here?"

She turned around and hugged Wang Daoyi's arm directly.

Diona also looked at him curiously.

"The things are done for the time being, and I happened to find you here, so I came over to take a look." Wang Daoyi said.

"Hey, is Brother Daoyi also coming to the snow mountain to do business?" Xiangling was a little confused. She remembered that Wang Daoyi said before that he was going to accompany Xingqiu and Chongyun to investigate the case.

Wang Dao nodded: "Well, the case is over. It was done by the Fools. They built a camp on the top of the snow mountain and imprisoned many people. Did you see the fireworks just now? It was Yula summoning the Lawrence family. People come to the rescue.”

"What, it's the fools again, these people are really bad." Diona said angrily.

The reputation of fools in Mondstadt is worse than that of shit in a cesspool.

Wang Daoyi smiled and did not answer, but looked at the man in green clothes on the other side.

"Are you from the Adventurers Association?"

When asked by Wang Dao, the other party immediately nodded: "Yes, Your Excellency."

"There should be a lot of scattered teams among the Fools in the snowy mountains. Organize your manpower and block the exits of the snowy mountains. Don't let anyone escape. Then wait for the knights to encircle and suppress them." Wang Daoyi casually ordered.

The people from the Adventurers Association nodded immediately: "Yes, I will arrange it right away."

The reason why he was so obedient was naturally not because Wang Daoyi was handsome enough, but because he recognized Wang Daoyi's identity.

When adventurers were doing activities in the desert, many Mondstadt adventurers had met Wang Daoyi.

After giving instructions,

Wang Daoyi looked at Xiang Ling and Diona again: "The snowy mountains are probably not going to be very peaceful next. You guys have to come back to collect ingredients after a while."

The two girls looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"Then let's go back to Mondstadt together." Wang Daoyi smiled, then picked up the rice cooker beside him, "Let's go have a big meal."

Guo Ba's eyes lit up and he became excited: "Lu Lie!"

When it comes to eating, he is happy.

…

That night,

Mondstadt gate,

Men from Lawrence escorted carloads of prisoners and kidnapped people into Mondstadt.

The faces of these Lawrence ethnic groups all have expressions that are different from those of Lawrence in the past.

There is glory in their faces,

Although the Lawrence family did not provide any decisive help in this operation,

However, they still made great efforts in the subsequent rescue and arrest activities.

Of course, the most important thing is that many Mondstadt citizens who had previously targeted Lawrence apologized to them in shame.

Even if it is only a small part, there are more people who choose to continue to turn a blind eye to them,

But this is the first time in thousands of years,

Ever since their ancestors committed crimes, the Lawrence family has suffered discrimination and abuse. Even if it is not their fault, they still have to suffer first.

And now, someone is actually willing to apologize for wronging them.

For Lawrence, this was simply better than cold beer in the summer.

After being a bad guy all my life, hey, he suddenly became a decent person. Don't feel too happy about it.

Of course, there are things that are comfortable, and there are things that are uncomfortable.

In the Goethe Hotel, which was crowdsourced by fools and used as an embassy,

The members of the Fools’ Mission looked panicked and had no clue.

The doctor's actions were planned by himself. In order not to be discovered too quickly by the Knights, he did not even notify the fools in Mondstadt.

Therefore, when the Knights investigated the Fools, they found nothing, because the Fools in the city really didn’t know.

These fools were investigated before and thought they were innocent, so they naturally refused to cooperate.

But now, the boomerang is flying back,

The recent kidnapping cases were really the work of fools.

The man behind the scenes is still an executive.

This put the fools in Mondstadt into an embarrassing situation.

To tell the Knights that they know nothing?

Hey, do you think the citizens of Mondstadt believe it or not?

And everyone is no longer a child,

Even if I know you are telling the truth, do you think I will admit that you are telling the truth?

"What should we do?" Some fools asked in a low voice.

"What else can we do? Either fight out now, or just wait for the base camp to negotiate with the Knights. We have been eaten to death."

Naturally, it is impossible for all the fools in the envoy to be fools. Some people know their current situation very clearly.

"Damn it, every time the doctor comes, nothing good happens." Some fools cursed angrily.

Ever since the God of Wind obtained the Heart of God,

Although these fools in Mondstadt are still not liked by the people of Mondstadt, life is still very easy.

Unexpectedly, the doctor has given them a big job now.

The envoys turned into robbers, and now it was the Knights who took them all to prison, and they had nothing to say.

"How did it fail? An executive officer, an elite team, and so many people were wiped out by four people?"

Someone said incredulously,

According to the official accounts of the Mondstadt Knights and some Lawrence ethnic groups,

This operation was carried out by the Knights and the Liyue Feiyun Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with the Lawrence family.

(Diluc once again withheld information about himself.)

The news received by these envoys of Fools and the citizens of Mondstadt was that a team of four had eliminated this conspiracy of Fools.

"Bah, they must all be fake. How much does it cost to eliminate an executive? If others don't know, how can we not know? The Knights must also have paid a high price."

Some fools think that the news released by the Knights is false.

But this statement made more people uneasy,

If the Knights really paid a high price,

Then aren't the fools like them in Mondstadt even more dangerous?

"... All activities are silent. Please inform the base camp to prepare for negotiations. I hope we will not be given up."

A foolish diplomatic consul sighed and ended the meeting.

In the conference room, the fools fell into silence.

"boom"

The door to the conference room was forced open.

The Foolish consuls turned their heads to look, and then their faces turned pale.

"Everyone, the Fools are suspected of a kidnapping case. Please come with us."

The visitor is Kaia, the cavalry captain of the Knights.

Kaia, who has always been able to say a few words to everyone, has a bit of coldness on her smiling face today.

Let all the fools here shudder.

The arrival of Kaia also means that the Knights will completely cleanse the fools in Mondstadt.

In the conference room, the faces of the fools all varied.

Some of them turned pale and almost fainted. It was true that they had done a lot of bad things in Mondstadt.

Although some looked uneasy, they still remained calm. This is normal diplomats.

Kaia took in all these expressions and made a preliminary judgment in her heart.

Without waiting for these fools to say anything, they waved to the knights behind them,

"Take it away."

The knights of the West Wind filed in and took away the fools and envoys one by one.

Of course, in order to preserve the last trace of dignity in the winter, these envoys were not shackled.

…

the next day,

Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling, who were having breakfast, welcomed the chivalrous and righteous duo.

Xingqiu, who had been following the case in the Knights all night, didn't feel tired at all, and was full of excitement.

On the other hand, Chongyun, who had a pure Yang body, had a dark circle under his eyes.

"That's great, haha, Dao Yi, you will never imagine how much dirt we dug up on Foolish People." Xingqiu looked a little strange, looking very excited and angry at the same time.

He was excited that the sins of the fools were discovered, and was angry at the evil deeds committed by the fools.

"It seems that the Knights are going to bite the fools hard." Wang Daoyi gave Xiang Ling a small steamed bun, and then looked at Xing Qiu.

"Thank you." Xiangling took a bite with a smile and looked at Xingqiu curiously.

Last night at dinner, Wang Daoyi told Xiang Ling everything.

Therefore, Xiangling is also very curious about what will happen to the fools.

Xingqiu's eyes flashed with excitement: "Yes, Captain Qin no longer adopts a gentle policy this time. On the contrary, she is very strong."

"As for the kidnapping cases planned and participated in by the Fools, all relevant personnel will be imprisoned first and then tried, and the identity of the Fools' diplomatic envoys will no longer be retained."

"For those Fools warriors who enter without applying, Mondstadt will regard it as an invasion and will clear out the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain area and the Fools camps in the wilderness of Mondstadt."

"Freeze all the assets of the Fools in Mondstadt and decide whether to unfreeze them after verification."

"In addition, she asked the Fools to hand over a list of all those who cooperated with them in Mondstadt."

Xingqiu explained the decisions made by Qin one by one.

Wang Daoyi nodded slightly. These actions were within his expectations.

Those fools who participated in the kidnapping basically died at the hands of Wang Daoyi and turned into powder.

The fools captured in Xueshan were at best accomplices. Qin could only imprison them first and then try them. It was impossible to kill them directly.

Depriving the Fools of their status as diplomatic envoys is sending a dangerous signal to Zhidong, telling them Mond’s attitude.

It is very simple to freeze the assets of the Fools. With so many victims, there must be compensation. This compensation cannot be paid by the Knights. It can only be compensated with the assets of the Fools.

Last but not least, I ask the fools to hand over the list of all collaborators.

Wang Daoyi's mouth curled up slightly.

Good guy, Qin is going to launch a big purge.

Don’t think that only old forces like Lawrence will cooperate with the fools.

Mondstadt is so big, there will always be people who are not clear-headed and think they are smart, want to gain skin from the tiger, and then seek cooperation from the fools.

These people often have some social status. They cooperate with fools and have a great impact on the safety of society.

Obviously, Qin was aware of the existence of these people and wanted to take this opportunity to launch a purge.

It happens to be the time when the kidnapping case has the greatest impact, and all the stigma is on the fools.

At this time, cleaning up those who cooperate with the fools will not be regarded as dictatorship, but will gain the support of the people.

"It's a good method, but what about your Feiyun Chamber of Commerce? What's the harvest?" Wang Daoyi ignored the matter of the Knights and asked about the gains of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.

Xingqiu grinned, and his smile was a little hard to suppress: "It's okay, we took over all the commercial positions vacated by the Fools. Feiyun Chamber of Commerce also bought some of the assets purchased by the Fools in Mondstadt at a low price."

Then he showed a trace of regret: "It's a pity that the kidnapped steward was a little frightened and refused to stay in Mondstadt, so he had to be transferred back to Liyue."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I have gained a lot. All the money has been made by your Feiyun Chamber of Commerce." Wang Daoyi sighed, "It is normal for people to be frightened after being kidnapped. The doctor's experiments have always been cruel, and there is no mental problem. That’s pretty good.”

Xingqiu also nodded: "That's true. Several of the people we rescued have already undergone experiments. Miss Lisa said that these people can only recover with time."

When they went to rescue people, kidnapping cases had already occurred frequently.

Naturally, someone has already been carried to the operating table by the doctor.

Even if these people are rescued, they have left indelible regrets.

This is one of the reasons why Qin went against the norm and started to be tough.

If Zhi Dong didn't give these people an explanation, and if Mond didn't give an explanation, Qin would dare to get rid of all the Fool prisoners.

"Now that the matter has come to an end, when are you going to go back? The Sea Lantern Festival is coming soon." Wang Daoyi asked.

Xingqiu yawned: "Ah~ I have a day off today and will go back tomorrow. News came from the Chamber of Commerce that there seems to be some problem with the tea in Qiaoyingzhuang this year. I have to go and take a look."

"Is there something wrong with the tea at Qiaoyingzhuang?" Wang Daoyi was also surprised, but come on, won't he be able to drink first-hand good tea this year?

Xingqiu shook his head: "The message didn't make it clear. It seems that the quality has declined."

"Then you have to deal with it properly. I don't want to go back to Liyue without tea." Wang Daoyi said quickly.

Xingqiu rolled his eyes, no matter how much Liyue lacks good tea, how can he still lack your share?

"What about you? How many more days are you going to stay?" Xingqiu asked, "Do you want to go back together?"

Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling looked at each other, suspecting that Xingqiu wanted to take advantage of the car.

"We should have a few more days of fun, so I won't leave with you."

"Okay, then I'll see you at the Lantern Festival."

After chatting casually for a while, Xingqiu and Chongyun stood up to say goodbye. After a busy day and night, they were going back to rest.

…

After breakfast, Xiangling went out to play with Diona again.

Wang Daoyi, on the other hand, left Mondstadt alone, went into the wild, and randomly found an abandoned camp.

After confirming that no one will approach here in a short time,

"Next, it's time to resolve Istaru's matter."

When Wang Dao came to Mondstadt, he wanted to do two things. One was to ask Wendy about Istaru's situation, and the other was to find a way to open the door to Sky Island.

In fact, both matters are almost solved now.

At the gate of Sky Island, Wendy confirmed that she can help.

As for Istaru’s matter, we only need to deal with the ‘Original Shadow Istaru’ on the river of time.

Once Teyvat's time is connected up and down, Istaru can draw strength from the past time on his own to recover.

Now, Wang Daoyi is ready to solve this matter.

Deep in the soul, [The Power of Time] shook slightly,

Wisps of long threads transformed from time emerged beneath Him,

Soon, the long lines of time continued to converge,

The long flowing river of time begins to appear,

Wang Daoyi is like the god who drives the waves, traveling upstream along the timeline.

Ten years, hundreds of years, thousands of years, until the place where He was blocked at the beginning,

The shadow sitting on the divine throne appeared again.

Only then did Wang Daoyi stop.

The long river of time beneath me is turbulent, as if it wants to knock down the blasphemous people swimming upstream.

However, the power from the authority of time forcibly controlled the power of the river of time.

Like a mad horse, but the reins are held.

"I feel a lot weaker."

Wang Daoyi looked at the original shadow, Istaru, who was silent on the long river of time.

Compared with the terrifying aura and power when they first met, the original shadow now has a feeling of being strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

"I have become stronger, and He has become weaker."

Naturally, there is no need to say much about Wang Daoyi’s growth. After mastering the power of destiny, his power has been expanding. He doesn’t know how powerful he will be in the end.

And the original shadow is indeed getting weaker,

Wang Daoyi guessed that it might be because when he fought with Tianli before, Tianli extracted the power belonging to the original shadow.

And this part of the power was not returned later.

"But it doesn't matter. Let's deal with him completely. It will be considered as repaying Istaru's help."

The golden aura circulated in Wang Dao's eyes. He no longer stayed, but chose to continue to swim upstream and enter the realm of the original shadow.

Sensing that forbidden territory has been invaded,

The rapid resurgence of the original shadow,

The originally turbulent river of time became even more violent,

Last time, Wang Daoyi was forced to take a picture of the river of time by the original shadow with its violent waves of time.

At that time, the original shadow seemed to still have a trace of Istaru's will.

But now, from Wang Daoyi's perspective, this original shadow has completely lost his intelligence.

Every move he makes is extremely dull, using powerful time power, and it feels like a kid playing tricks.

"Forget it, no matter whether you still have intelligence or not, and whether you are controlled by heaven or not, your end is already doomed."

Wisps of deep and far-reaching power are condensed in Wang Daoyi's hands. This is the power of time.

The other party is the representative of time. Using the power of time to deal with him can be regarded as giving him a worthy death.

Of course, the power of time alone is definitely not enough.

Wang Daoyi didn't want to delay, he just wanted to resolve the battle quickly and accurately.

As a result, the concept of wisdom is silently blessed by the power of time.

The original shadow stirred up the long river of time and slapped Wang Daoyi's body fiercely.

Wang Daoyi, on the other hand, pointed his finger gently at him.

"Perish, this is also a relief for you."

The power of time blessed by wisdom descends on the original shadow,

The originally hazy figure flashed rapidly,

The power belonging to Wang Daoyi almost wiped it out from here,

The original shadow that controlled time finally tasted the power of time.

Time continues to distort the original shadow, destroying his figure like a tattered mosaic picture.

Visible weakness.

The original shadow will naturally not be willing to die;

Although he has no spiritual intelligence, he still mobilizes the power of time with all his strength in an attempt to resist Wang Daoyi's power.

Unfortunately,

Although the power of time is great, it only controls the time of Teyvat, and it does not even have complete authority.

Therefore, no matter how the original shadow struggles,

The power of time belonging to Wang Daoyi, blessed with intellectual power, swallowed him up without mercy.

First, the hazy figure was distorted and dissipated,

Then the throne that suppressed the long river of time was shattered.

at last,

Under Wang Daoyi’s gaze,

The long river of time that Teyvat was blocked once again flows up and down,

Wisps of wind of time are blowing on the long river.

A certain will that had fallen asleep due to weakness began to revive.

"Welcome back, Istaru."
