Youla was stunned and frowned: "The [dead man] who almost destroyed Dao's wife and messed up the terrain of Liyue?"

"Otherwise?" Kaia shrugged, turned and walked away: "Our acting captain has listed the arrival of that person as the top priority in Mondstadt. Many things have been prepared for the Wine Festival. They were all taken out in advance.”

"What... it's really abominable, all the fools... [Dead]... Huh! I'll take note of this grudge!" After saying that, Yula angrily brought the drink in the hand of a passing waiter. Suffocate it in one bite.

At this time, behind a hidden small door on the wall of the hall, the acting leader Qin was squatting and looking at the little loli with a pair of cute elf ears in front of him and said: "Today's banquet is very, very important, maybe it is related to... For the survival of Mondstadt, you have to be obedient, understand, Keli?"

Looking at Captain Qin, who showed such a serious expression to her for the first time, Xiao Keli was stunned, then lowered her head and whispered: "I understand, Keli will not cause trouble at the banquet..."

......

"Wow, the atmosphere today is so weird. It's obviously such a lively and grand banquet, but everyone looks very serious and nervous. There is no joy and lively atmosphere that should be at the banquet..." An Bocha Standing with his waist bent at the door of the banquet hall, he sighed: "I have met the executive they talked about, and a friend of mine was with him. When we met him at the time, I actually felt pretty good... …”

Noelle, who was carrying the wine box next to him, smiled helplessly: "But no matter what kind of person the other person is, what he does should be valued like this, right? I think the acting captain can lead everyone properly." If we handle this matter well, of course, Master Fengshen will definitely bless us."

"Hey, I hope so. I just don't know if Ke Lai came with him this time... We haven't had any contact since we were separated last time. I don't know where to send a letter..." As he said, Amber Sighed again...

Kaia, who was walking around the banquet hall, walked towards the corner with a smile, and said to the red-haired man with his arms crossed and expressionless, staring at the door like an owl in the night: "It's rare to return to the Knights. If you don't go say hello to your old friends, why are you just sitting in the corner alone in a daze?"

Diluc, the owner of Chenxi Winery and the provider of most of the drinks at this banquet, glanced at the visitor: "Let's not talk about common sense for the moment, whether I would do that kind of boring thing, just like this Given the situation, who do you think still has the time to chat with others?"

"Haha, yes, but looking at you like this, is it possible that the dignified Master Diluc is also nervous sometimes?" Kaia teased.

"If you came to me specifically to talk about these useless nonsense, then you can leave." Diluc said lightly.

"It's just a joke, don't mind." Kaiya shook his head helplessly, walked to the wall and leaned against it, put away the cynical look on his face, and rarely asked seriously: "What do you think of the [dead man]? "

"..." Diluc closed his eyes, and there was a long exhalation from his nose. After a moment, he opened his eyes and said, "A few years ago, he came to my tavern once, and he stayed there from early evening until late at night."

"I had some very subtle attempts to test him, but he saw through it at a glance. After that, he seemed to have lost all interest in me and just drank there..." Diluc paused and continued. : "Although he covered the upper half of his face with a mask, when his face shows expressions, the lower half of his face inevitably needs to be involved. And through some detailed observations, I discovered a very strange thing. "

"What is it?" Kaia asked curiously.

"...The expression is fake...or it's the expression he showed deliberately..."

"To mislead you?" Kaia asked.

Diluc shook his head: "I still have some self-awareness. For him, a small role like me shouldn't be worth what he does."

"What about your judgment?" Kaiya became even more curious.

"I suspect... that he himself should have no feelings." After Diluc finished speaking, he frowned again: "No, there was something different about the girl who was with him at the time, so he should have very weak feelings... …”

Bang bang... Kaiya on the side clapped his hands and said with a smile: "As expected of you, you were able to determine such important information from just such a little contact, which is better than nothing. I was staring at him in the conference room at that time. I spent a whole day looking at it and spent a lot of time trying to figure it out."

"What are you talking about, gentlemen?" A beautiful purple phantom came over, and with a lazy voice, it attracted the eyes of Diluc and Kaia at the same time.

"It's Lisa, are you also alarmed?" Kaiya greeted with a smile.

"Haha, what are you talking about? I am the one who suggested to Qin to hold this banquet tonight. Are you right, Qin?" Lisa smiled and turned towards Qin, who was also walking this way. smiled.

Chapter 110

Qin's brows furrowed slightly, as if she didn't hear Lisa's voice, and just stood aside with her arms folded in concentration.

Seeing this, Lisa couldn't help but sigh, put down Qin's arms, held one of the arms, and comforted: "You are worried too much, Qin, the danger level of [the deceased] is indeed very high, but Mond The city has experienced countless disasters, but it still stands here. Besides, he may not take action against Mondstadt, right?"

Qin's brows did not relax because of Lisa's comfort. She shook her head: "We cannot place our hopes on the kindness of the enemy now, let alone deal with Mondstadt's crisis with a lucky attitude..."

At this moment, the door of the banquet hall was suddenly pushed open. A knight quickly scanned the banquet hall that had been arranged. His eyes paused at Captain Qin and others, and then hurried over -

"Captain Qin, the people from the Fools have already arrived and will arrive at the banquet hall in five minutes at most." The knight said.

Several people here looked at each other. Qin took a deep breath, turned to face the banquet hall, cleared her throat, and said loudly: "Everyone, our guests will be arriving soon. What needs to be said has been said before. , here, I hope you can stay calm and don’t feel too much pressure, just treat it like an ordinary banquet..."

boom!

The door to the banquet hall burst open, and the silver-haired boy walked in the front, followed by a dozen members of the Fools who looked proud and contemptuous.

The young man smiled and said, "Is this an ordinary banquet? Is there something special about this banquet that I don't know about?"

Instead of the 5 minutes mentioned by the knight who reported the news, the Fools arrived early, causing the entire banquet hall to fall silent.

The first person to react was Kaia. His laughter echoed in the hall that seemed to be empty even though there were many people there: "Haha, Your Excellency [The Deceased] is here. Your reputation spreads throughout the continent, Knight. Everyone in the group will inevitably be nervous about going to the banquet with someone like you. Our acting group leader was trying to comfort everyone, but he happened to be bumped into by Mr. [The Deceased] and all the guests of the Fools. It was really funny."

Kaia walked through the crowd and greeted Knox and others with a smile.

Until he walked in front of Knox and stretched out his hand: "Long time no see, Mr. [Decedent], I didn't expect that your true appearance behind the mask is so extraordinary. It really shocked us."

Knox looked at him jokingly, with no intention of shaking hands. He smiled, and while passing by him, he said lightly: "Put away that ridiculous mask, I'm not interested in seeing yours." Performance."

The corner of Kaia's mouth twitched slightly, but fortunately, Qin, who was the acting leader of the Knights, finally spoke. She walked over with Lisa and Diluc beside her, and said with a smile: "I am the Knights of the West Wind. Acting Captain Qin, on behalf of the Knights, I welcome you, Mr. [Decedent], I hope we will all have a pleasant night today."

Behind him were a dozen or so men with expressions on their faces as if someone owed them millions of moras, so just in terms of momentum, Knox had already crushed the acting leader of the knights on the opposite side.

In fact, Knox doesn't have much confidence in his own mind. With his current state and fighting ability, how can he stretch his hips? If the opponent suddenly fucks someone, I have Admiral Diluc to fight [Dead Man] , then threw a cup as a sign, and dozens of knights surrounded him... Unless Barbatos showed up to save his life, he would most likely have to explain himself here today.

But fortunately, he is notorious and has a fierce reputation, and the other party is obviously intimidated by his reputation, so now it is a psychological tactic.

Knox glanced lazily at the people walking towards him and said nonchalantly: "An unforgettable night? I have experienced too many nights. It is not easy for me to remember them."

After saying that, he no longer looked at Qin, but looked at the expressionless Diluc next to him. He chuckled and said, "I remember you, the wine in your shop is good."

"What an honor." Diluc's tone was light: "We will prepare a lot of wine from Chenxi Winery at the banquet. Since Mr. [Decedent] likes it, that would be great."

Although Knox's approach of skipping her and talking directly to others was somewhat embarrassing for herself, Qin didn't take it seriously at all and watched the conversation between Knox and Diluc with a smile until the two of them had settled down. , she finally spoke again, but this time she was not speaking to Knox, but towards the knights in the banquet hall who had been quietly paying attention to the situation here: "Our guests have arrived, so the banquet will begin. Well, please help yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the expected noise in the banquet hall immediately filled every corner of the banquet hall. Although there were still many people who glanced vaguely towards this side from time to time, at least the superficial skills were in place.

Knox raised the corner of his mouth and smiled at the members of the Fools behind him: "You should have fun yourself, have fun, and don't let down other people's good intentions."

The fools burst into laughter and soon dispersed. A dozen people were scattered throughout the banquet hall like a net. Wherever they went, the noisy voices would always become quieter for a moment. will recover.

"Then Sir [Decedent], how about I accompany you to visit and introduce you?" Captain Qin said kindly.

Knox did not reply immediately, but paused for a while on her face before saying, "The acting captain looks familiar. Have we met somewhere?"

"Oh?" Acting leader Qin herself has not spoken yet. Instead, Lisa beside her covers her mouth and chuckles: "Is Mr. [Decedent] trying to strike up a conversation? This is not okay. This method is too old-fashioned. , although our Qin looks very mature and stable, but she is still a young girl in terms of age~"

"Lisa..." Qin glanced at Lisa helplessly, and then explained to Knox: "When Mr. [The Deceased] came to the Knights a few years ago, we met in the conference hall."

"Oh..." Knox nodded suddenly: "I remember that your name tag at the time was marked as deputy commander..."

"Yes, because Falga's regiment is on a long expedition, that's why I will temporarily serve as the acting leader of the knights." Qin said.

"That's right." Knox smiled, turned around and walked towards a table filled with wine bottles, and said lazily to Qin and the others: "There is no need to accompany you, in a lively occasion like a banquet. , I prefer to be alone..."

After that, he picked up a bottle of wine and walked towards the corner of the banquet hall.

Qin and Lisa next to her looked at each other, but it was Diluc who spoke first: "This banquet was originally a test of his attitude. It seems that our intentions have been seen through again."

"But at least he didn't leave directly, right?" Lisa smiled: "That is to say, at least for now, he doesn't have much ill will towards us."

Chapter 111 Banquet

The melodious and melodious music echoed throughout the hall as the musicians played in the corner of the banquet hall. Against the background of this music, even the noise of people became less harsh.

Knox leaned against the wall holding the wine glass he filled with wine, and his eyes glanced at the people in front of him as if he didn't care.

Soon, he noticed a figure walking towards him through the crowd. It was a girl wearing red clothes. The goggles hanging around her neck were impressive, but after a while, Nok Si couldn't remember where he had seen this person.

When the girl walked up to Knox, she smiled reluctantly, and then said, "Um, long time no see. Is Cole coming here with you?"

As soon as he said these words, Knox remembered that this girl seemed to be with Cole at that time...

Thinking of this, Knox smiled and shook his head: "I understand your expectation to reunite with your friends, but unfortunately, Kelai did not accompany you on this trip."

"Ah? Oh..." The girl looked a little disappointed, but immediately asked: "So where is Ke Lai now? How are you doing recently? Can you give me an address where I can send letters? I haven't seen you for so long. To be honest, I I miss her very much.”

"Ke Lai is in Xumi now, and his life is probably pretty good. As for the address - for now, Xumi Road is a city transformed into a forest." After Knox answered, he smiled and said, "I believe I will receive your letter. , Kelai will be very happy."

"Ahaha..." Amber scratched her head in embarrassment, and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you for answering my question, goodbye." After that, she turned around and ran away.

Looking at the girl's energetic back, Knox smiled and took a sip of the wine in his glass.

Amber on the other side didn't run far before she was caught by a graceful figure: "Amber!"

"Hmm!" Amber staggered due to the catch, but fortunately the person behind her didn't let go so she didn't fall. She turned back and looked at the person: "Yura? What's wrong?"

Youra raised her eyebrows: "Although I really want to remind you not to run away at the banquet, but now I am more curious about what you talked with that guy."

"This." Amber tapped her chin with her finger, tilted her head and said, "Actually, I was just asking about a friend."

"Friend? Why do you ask that executive about your friend's affairs? Do you still have friends among the fools?" Youla asked strangely.

"This is a long story. If you want to know more, Yula, I can tell you from the beginning..."

"No, compared to this, I am more concerned about the person himself. You have been in contact with him, come and tell me, what kind of person is that guy?" Yora narrowed her eyes and stared at Knox secretly. direction.

"Are you talking about the executive officer? In fact, I only said a few words, and there is no contact, but I don't think he is a bad person, at least not as bad as the rumors..."

......

The moon was at its peak, and the lights inside the Knights were brightly lit. Outside, Mondstadt, which had long been shrouded in darkness, seemed particularly peaceful amidst the chirping of cicadas.

The bard in green attire passed by the door of the Knights and asked the knight guarding the door: "Hey? Mr. Knight, I think the Knights seem to be very lively today. What happened?"

The knight glanced at the handsome young poet. He was already suffocating, but he suddenly found someone to complain to. He curled his lips and said, "Captain Qin hosted a banquet for the executive of Fools. Really, just because That guy suddenly appeared in Mondstadt, and a lot of things prepared for the Wine Festival were brought out to entertain him. It’s really abominable..."

Although the voice kept echoing in his ears, the poet did not listen to the next words. The information he was concerned about had already been obtained.

Taking advantage of the knight's time to rest and catch his breath after finishing a long sentence, the poet quickly asked: "Why would an executive create such a big battle? Is the other party scary?"

"Scary?" The knight wiped the sweat from his forehead because he was overly excited, and said helplessly: "That's really scary. I heard that it almost destroyed the entire Dao Wife some time ago, and also killed the neighboring country Liyue. Everything is turned upside down..."

"..." The poet was silent, and then he smiled helplessly: "So it's you who is here..."

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and the wind and sand fascinated the knight's eyes. He rubbed it a few times, but when his vision returned, he was surprised to find that there was a figure of a young poet in front of him. The knight scratched his eyes strangely. Scratching his head: "Why are you walking so fast..."

......

The lively banquet was still going on, and as a string of extraordinarily rhythmic melody sounded, the gentlemen all bowed to the ladies around them and invited them to put their hands into their palms. Whenever a man and woman held hands successfully, , the dance floor will become lively. Obviously, it is time for the most popular and final dance at the banquet.

At this moment, Knox was sitting in front of a bar, mixing various precious and precious drinks with great interest, trying to make the most delicious wine.

As he poured the last cup of indescribable substance into his mouth, a "poof" followed immediately!At the same time, there was Nacida's voice in my head.

"Ugh...what did you drink? I can't seem to feel the existence of my tongue..." Nasida said in a complicated tone in her mind.

"Trying a job as a bartender..." Knox responded with an equally complicated response.

As he spoke in his mind, Knox in reality smacked his lips and slapped his burning tongue with his hand.

But what he didn't notice was that not far behind Knox, Yora was holding her arms and silently paying attention to him along with Qin, Lisa, Kaia Amber and Diluc.
