Knox sat next to Ying, pulled the plate in front of him politely, took a bunch of dumplings from it, and explained: "The thing is like this, the skirmishers fled decisively after Inazuma did a series of bad things. Xumi, when his good friend Dr. Dotore learned the news, he decided to help complete his evil experiment and at the same time help the stragglers become gods. After they got together with the old sages from the Order Academy, they were Xumi stirs up wind and rain..."

As he said that, he bit off a dumpling, chewed it in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it. He turned to look at Xiangying and smiled: "Considering that the skirmishers are your creations after all, how to deal with them depends on your feelings, so I came here to let you know. Say, are you going to handle it yourself, or are you going to let others tear it down?"

"..." Ying was silent, and then said: "...I know, I will go to Xumi."

Knox gave her a thumbs up and blinked his left eye: "Very good, but remember to watch my eyes when the time comes."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was covered in black flames and disappeared in an instant.

Ying sighed helplessly, picked up the dumplings he had just put down, and murmured to himself: "Obviously, my condition is so bad, and you still use this excuse to ask me for help, it would be better if you just ask for help..."

......

"Huh, fortunately, Ying seems to still have some feelings for that Scaramucci guy, which saves me from going to Liyue to find Morax again..." Knox sat on the roof of the castle tower and looked at the moon and said to himself He said to himself: "After taking a rest, we can almost go back to Xumi."

As a stream of blue light escaped, Nasita's slightly illusory figure appeared beside him. She held her cheeks with her hands, looked at the young man's side face with her sparkling blue eyes and whispered softly: "Ling, have you ever had one?" Someone you like?"

"...Huh?" Knox tilted his head and raised his eyebrows and looked at Nasida in a very strange way: "Are you...wanting to talk about love with me? Are you looking for the wrong person?"

"Well..." Nasida explained: "Because I have learned through the wanted data of the Void Terminal before that among all chat topics, love is one of the favorite topics, and it is also a way to build relationships between people. One of the best topics…”

"Ha, your level of boredom is really outrageous, but also, after being locked up every day, it's not surprising that you would do something like this when you're bored." Knox thought for a while: "As for the person you like... well , I don’t remember much, at least not in the memories I have now.”

"Oh, what do you think of that traveler...?" Nasida asked.

"You mean love?" Knox said lazily, "I don't have any opinion. I know that she and I spent a lot of time together before, but I have very few related memories."

"But you seem to treat her differently from others..."

"What's different?" Knox sighed: "At most, I helped a few times when completing my own goals? As a good person, I can't do such a good thing, right?"

"...Oh, what about the girl who accompanied you to Xumi?"

"Columbia?"

"Is that her name?" Nacida asked curiously, "What kind of person is she?"

"She..." Knox thought for a moment, lowered his eyes and said, "She is a very interesting person..."

Chapter 97 Together

Knox's method of returning to Sumeru was still a space jump, but because the distance was too long, the energy he had accumulated during Inazuma's rest was exhausted in an instant.

Now the huge power in Knox's body has already become a heavy burden, like a time bomb. If he is not careful, his body will collapse due to this power.

Knox, who appeared in a corner of Kavanyi, coughed violently, and blood scattered through his fingers like raindrops on the sand in front of him. As waves of green halo enveloped him, his pale face became slightly better. Some.

Wiping the corners of his mouth, Knox stood leaning against the wall next to him, sighed and looked up at the sky: "Are they all snails? They move so slowly..."

"You moved too fast. It's been less than 24 hours since you left Xumi and came back. Ying and Paimon are probably still on their way here..." Nasida said helplessly.

"I'm talking about Dotore and Scaramucci." Knox narrowed his eyes: "The hook and bait have been there for a long time, and the fish's eyes have been directed there, so why hasn't it bit the hook yet? …”

"Fishhook? Fishing bait?" Nasida recalled the details of the plan she had seen in Knox's consciousness before, and quickly reacted: "You mean the little girl named 'Collet' and the little girl you gave her? A special eye of God?"

"Yes, if you don't take away the 'Eye of God', just with a nail full of resentment and desire, how can the skirmisher become a god... If he doesn't become a god, how can I remove these time bomb-like powers from my body? "Knox squinted his eyes and seemed a little impatient.

"Although I don't agree with your approach of treating people as pawns, but..." Nasida was silent for a while and said softly: "I will pray that everything goes well for you."

"Here we come." Knox suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction.

Nasida was confused: "What?"

"[Unstable factors]," Knox said.

......

"We finally arrived at Kawanyi. The area here seems to be quite lively." Paimon breathed a sigh of relief and said happily while looking around.

"Are you going through the wall in front and reaching the desert...can you really find helpers there?"

"Since Ling said that, you should at least give it a try." Ying said.

"Uh... But didn't Ling say that was what he was conveying to Nasita?" Paimon corrected him, and then looked at the tall wall in front of him that could be said to block out the sky and the sun: "I remember that this wall seems to be called defense. The sand wall is used to isolate the wind and sand from outside. Such a tall wall should be the [miracle] of King Daci Shu, right? It is as shocking as the big pit created by Ling Zaidao's wife."

"..." Ying didn't say anything but looked at the sand wall in trance.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from my ears: "Don't be in a daze here, come here and follow me."

"Eh?"

"Elhaysen?!"

The person who appeared was actually Alhaysen, whom they had collaborated with for some time before the Flower Goddess’s birthday in the port of Ormos because of the knowledge of the gods!

Without hesitation, Ying and Paimon followed immediately.

She ran all the way to a hidden corner before stopping. When she stopped, Ying realized something. She hid behind the cover and looked at the place where they were in a daze. Only a few people from the Gilded Brigade were stopped there. , looking around as if looking for someone.

"Is it from the Gilded Brigade? Whose subordinate is it this time? Are we being followed?" Paimon asked in surprise.

"You are too careless. The tracking techniques of those tails are very clumsy. You should have discovered it long ago." Alhaysen said calmly, crossing his arms.

But as soon as he finished speaking, another familiar voice sounded: "Yeah, if you can't find a senior stalker like me, forget it. Isn't it unreasonable that those people didn't find it?"

Along with the words, a figure wrapped tightly in a cloak and mask appeared.

"Who?!" Alhaysen immediately made vigilant movements. This person was obviously not on the same level as those from the Gilded Brigade. He was completely unaware of his traces!

Seeing this familiar costume, unlike Alhaysen's vigilance, Ying and Paimon relaxed at the same time.

"Don't worry, Elhaysen, this is our friend, his name is..." Pamon said, suddenly stopped, then looked at Knox and asked cautiously: "Um, is this allowed to be said?"

"My name is Niu Da. Nice to meet you, Mr. Elhaysen." Knox did not answer Paimon's words and greeted Elhaysen with a smile.

"..." Unable to complain about this name, Ying and Paimon looked at him with dead fish eyes.

Through observation, it was confirmed that this person was indeed an acquaintance of Ying and Paimon. Elhaysen relaxed his vigilance slightly and nodded in response.

"By the way... Well, Niu Da, didn't you say you won't act with us? Why are you quietly following us again?" Paimeng showed a teasing expression: "Are you worried about Yingying?"

The corners of Knox's mouth under the mask curved in a ridiculous way: "You are moving too slowly. What I have to do has already been done."

As he spoke, a black light flashed in his hand, and two strings of dumplings from Shadow appeared in his hand, and they were tossed into the hands of Paimon and Ying.

"I picked it up at Inazuma last night. Although it's a bit cold, it's from the country of origin and tastes absolutely authentic."

"Wow... isn't it? In less than a day, you've been walking back and forth between Inazuma and Sumeru?!" Paimon took a bite of the dumpling in surprise and looked at Knox with bulging cheeks, admiration. Beyond words.

Knox waved his hand modestly: "It was a fluke, a fluke, I almost didn't come back."

"Huh? Did something happen on the road? Is there anything that can threaten you?" Paimon said with a very humble expression.

"Ahem..." Elhaysen coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you, but do you plan to continue talking about these meaningless words here, or do you plan to go to the desert before it gets dark? I think your destination should also be the desert, right?"

"Ah? Oh, that's right, because seeing the spirit... well, Niu Da was a little too relaxed." Paimon scratched his head in embarrassment, then looked at Ying and said, "Then let's set off quickly."

Ying withdrew her gaze from Knox, nodded, and looked at Elhaysen: "Elhaysen, are you also planning to go to the desert?"

"Yes, I need to investigate something." Alhaysen crossed his arms: "Let's go together. Do you have any specific goals?"

Ying looked at Knox and saw that he didn't express anything, so she shook her head: "No."

"Then let's go to Aru Village first. It's the largest settlement in the desert and has relatively more information and resources. How about that?"

"Okay, more people means more fun." Knox agreed with a smile.

Chapter 98 Disciplinary Officer and Executive Officer

"By the way, Ling...well, Niu Da, what are you doing at Dao Wife?"

After passing through the sand wall, the four of them came to the desert realm together. Paimon, who was already chatty on the road, couldn't help but ask Knox new questions.

However, Knox hadn't answered yet, but Elhaysen spoke first. He seemed to be unable to bear it and said: "No need to call that ridiculous name anymore. You blurted out his real name more than a dozen times along the way. If I don't It’s a little too stupid to know.”

"Uh..." Paimon suddenly scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at Ling apologetically: "The pseudonym you came up with is too weird."

Knox looked at the lonely smoke in the desert indifferently.

"Hey, you haven't said what you're going to do back at Rice Wife yet." Pamon reminded him as he flew to Knox's side.

"I'm tired of eating Sumeru vegetables, why don't we go have some authentic Inazuma cuisine?" Knox glanced at Paimon and said calmly.

"Ah?" Paimon was stunned, and then immediately realized that Knox was talking nonsense again. She puffed up her cheeks, crossed her arms and turned her head: "Huh, if you don't say it, you won't say it. Really mean……"

Ying, who was walking on Knox's left side, suddenly said: "Ling, someone asked me to bring you a letter."

"Oh?" Knox turned to look at her: "Who?"

Ying shook his head, stretched out his hand and handed Knox the piece of cloth that appeared at an unknown time: "It's signed."

Knox took it without looking at it, but put it away with a flash of black light in his hand.

"Don't you see?" Ying asked quickly with wide eyes.

"To believe something like this, you have to pay attention to the timing when you read it. For example, in the dead of night, when the moonlight shines through the window and shines on the desk - such as when the snow is falling and the fire in the fireplace is crackling - such as when the stars are shining on the top of the mountain..."

Knox glanced at her and said with a smile: "There are yellow sand everywhere now, and there are people around me eagerly waiting for me to see... Isn't this too unsentimental? At least give the person who wrote this letter something Respect, how about that?”

"..." Ying twitched the corner of his mouth and was speechless for a moment.

While speaking, the destination is already in sight.

Elhaysen, who was walking at the front, stopped and introduced to the people behind him: "Ahead is the haven of desert people - Aru Village."

Paimon looked around for a few times at the inverted triangular mountain wall terrain around him, and couldn't help but said: "The terrain here is so unique, it should be very interesting, let's go and see it quickly!"

The wind blew into the valley, blowing the clothes of several people back and making a sound, but at the same time, under the suddenly clear view outside the valley, the exotic Aru Village scenery was seen.

However, before anyone could marvel, a gust of wind suddenly fell from the sky, and an afterimage wielded a golden staff and struck Knox on the head.

when!

The edgeless sword blocked it instantly, and Ying glared at Knox's attacker, but before she could say anything, the opponent had already rushed forward again. Ying was about to step forward, but was stopped by Knox. He casually swung the figure that was charging towards him and smashed it into the void. He pulled out the gorgeous silver sword from it and blocked the powerful and heavy attack in mid-air with just one move.

As a black light exploded from the sword blade, the figure was instantly knocked away. The tip of the staff dragged dozens of meters of scratches on the ground before the figure stood up.

"Seno?" Elhaysen recognized the person and said calmly: "Your Excellency, the Disciplinary Officer of the Gale, should only exercise his powers in the Apostolic Order. Why did you suddenly take action against my friend's friend?"

"Elhaysen, you can't escape the trial, but before that -" the young man known as Seno cast his sharp eyes at Knox: "The executive officer of the Fools will no longer live in peace with your colleagues in the Order House. , what do you want to do in the desert?"

"Oops..." Knox blew the blade in his hand: "You were actually recognized?"

Black flames ignited on his body, instantly burning away his cloak and mask. Knox, who revealed his true appearance, narrowed his purple eyes and said jokingly: "Now that you know who I am, I'm quite curious. Where did you find the courage to attack me?" Woolen cloth?"
