"Next is Kael'thas. Merlin said that he is a descendant of the Sunstrider family. This has yet to be verified. Although the opponent can use the Star Crown, this can only prove that the opponent has the blood of Pendragon. I don't know. Is the Sun Chaser family really getting rid of the drug that can only give birth to female offspring? Maybe it made a deal with other declining royal families in exchange for a child, but Kael'thas's performance is not weak. Eye of God , and the graduation from the Sumeru Order Academy, they all showed that the other party was an excellent prince, especially when Terenas was finally forced to drive Arthas out of Mondstadt and let Kael'thas take the prince's place. Therefore, the Sunstrider family has caught some evidence of the Menethil family's misdeeds, which also proves the excellence of Kael'thas on the other hand, otherwise the mud will not hold up the wall, but it is not reflected in Merlin's story. You must know that Kael'thas must have had a good reputation during the years he was a prince in Mondstadt, and his conduct as a person was perfect. Otherwise, Terenas would not have left the Star Crown when he went to the Whispering Forest to find Arthas. In Mondstadt, isn't he afraid of what Kael'thas might do if he takes the opportunity?"

"So that's it. I thought Terenas had planned to abdicate, so he left the Star Crown in Mondstadt." Tvarin nodded and expressed his thoughts.

"Haha, Terenas will never abdicate voluntarily, even if he has no ambitions anymore, and with Kael'thas' performance or the Sunstrider family and the Menethil family should have a secret agreement, Terenas will be stable. Kael'thas will not take over the throne until he dies, otherwise there will be some street news, which is full of dirt on the Menethil family. This does not appear in the story, so it excludes the Morgan family from witnessing the incident. Perhaps, the greater possibility is that what Kael'thas did made Terenas unable to find fault."

"Since Kael'thas is so good, will you choose him as the next king of Mondstadt?" Tvarin asked.

"will not."

Unexpectedly, Barbatos refused, which made Tevalin even more confused. It opened its mouth in surprise and asked: "Is there anything else about him that dissatisfies you?"

"Ha ha……"

Barbatos blinked and whispered: "Although he is perfect, he cannot see the situation clearly, fails to seize the opportunity, and underestimates his opponent. This is his fatal weakness... and because of this , I would not have chosen him in the parallel world, otherwise I would have sent you out long ago to end this major blood-changing civil war."

Chapter 234: The King of Knights: The Speculations of the First Barbatos

While others were talking and looking expectantly at the video and Yu Piaoling's reaction, in the Temple of the Thousand Winds in Mondstadt, Tevalin and Barbatos revealed through questions and answers, the lessons Merlin taught in the parallel world. The biggest doubt in the story is why Barbatos did not appear and instead allowed the Mondstadt Empire to start a civil war.

"Does Kael'thas have such a big shortcoming?" Tvarin asked in surprise.

"Yes, after Terenas left, he did not seize the time to unite his forces. Instead, he continued to act as his own prince. When Alsace came to attack, he even abandoned Mondstadt and fled to Darfur. Daupa Valley, although this saved his life, it also indirectly proved that during the years he was a prince, he actually did not have much influence within the city of Mondstadt. Terenas still firmly controlled Mondstadt. The situation in Mondstadt City, and the Gunnhild family and the Sunstrider family also believed that the overall situation was settled, so they did not send many people to Mondstadt City to gradually take over power. He was not aggressive enough to protect Mondstadt. He was too I have to rely on the Gunnhild family, which is why I won’t choose him, otherwise after he becomes king, there will be questions about who has the final say in the Mondstadt Empire.”

"So that's it. No wonder you said that he couldn't see the situation clearly and couldn't seize the opportunity. Looking at it this way, he is really just a prince in name. Otherwise, when Alsace sent his army over, Mondstadt would also be The city gate would not be opened to let him in. If the Wind Eagle Sword hadn't exploded, Arthas would have become king directly, and the story would have been changed..."

After listening, Tvarin concluded.

"Alsace can't enter Mondstadt. I should have expected it in the parallel world. The Star Crown and the Wind Eagle Sword are enough to protect Mondstadt. If Kael'thas didn't abandon the city, then he would have passed the test. Even if he can't pick up the Wind Eagle Sword, when I let you go over and eliminate Arthas, it will naturally increase Kael'thas' reputation, enough to let him break free from the shackles of the Gunnhild family and let him Maybe the Mondstadt Empire will last another thousand years..."

Having said this, Barbatos picked up the bottle and took another sip, and then sighed: "It's a pity, it's a pity..."

"Well, it's indeed a pity..." Tevalin still thinks more of the little guy Kael'thas, but he still has doubts about Thrall: "What do you think of Thrall? He uses such despicable means. Got the throne!”

"In fact, from the moment Kael'thas abandoned the city and fled, whether it was Kael'thas or Thrall, it was the same in the end."

Barbatos said slightly tiredly: "The one who originally had the most hope was Kael'thas, but after escaping, he was no longer qualified, or in other words, his qualifications were greatly reduced. And Thrall, although the Morgan family seemed to have the least profit at the beginning, But I have no doubt that their family is the mastermind behind the scenes. Even if Merlin didn't say it clearly in the story, provoking Menethil and watching the tigers fight from the mountain was a gamble, but the Morgan family did get it. The final victory.”

"Oh, so you were actually struggling at the time, right?"

Tevalin suddenly realized when he heard this.

"You said it's me from a parallel world!"

Barbatos emphasized again, and then he turned his brows and continued: "What I'm actually more curious about is the character that Merlin only mentioned - Finna Golden Sword."

"Hey? Isn't she Yu Piao Ling's great-grandmother?"

"Yes, according to the timeline, dating back to the fourth generation from Yu Piao Ling, that is a hundred years ago, his great-grandmother, Fenna Jinjian, seemed to be a remarkable person. This is evident from her sister , Jaina Proudmoore can tell."

"Oh, that person who is like a courtesan, was able to win over two princes in a row, and finally made the right bet and became the queen. What a terrifying woman."

"Merlin said in the story that Jaina and Fenna seemed to have had a power struggle, and in the end Fenna was forced to marry a remote royal family. The other party did not seem to elaborate on this matter."

"What's wrong? It feels like he's just a passing character. Are you overthinking it?"

Tevalin patted the pillars of the temple again, mocking Barbatos for being just a little bit picky. After all, it was just an ordinary dispute between aristocratic families.

"No, I said that for a reason."

Barbatos turned around and asked: "Tvarin, why do you think a woman like Jaina should let Kael'thas escape from her grasp?"

"...Well, the two of them should be in a political marriage..."

Tevalin said weakly, just looking at his expression, he didn't look too sure.

"If Jaina and Kael'thas were in love, Finna's Golden Sword had a foot in the door..."

"I'll wipe it! Don't scare me!"

Tevalin thought for a moment, and suddenly felt horrified to think about it. This Merlin had really inadvertently inserted a hidden thread, and this hidden thread was probably related to the key to Yu Piaoling becoming the king of Mondstadt in the parallel world!

This time, the civil war between the crown princes a hundred years ago is not only not over, but rather, it is still continuing!

"Well, I thought about it a little bit, and I feel that I in the parallel world may have noticed this, which led to the layout going on. And all of this probably still started a thousand years ago."

When no one knew about it, Barbatos described such a hidden line to Tevalin. Although he was not Barbatos from the parallel world, his guess was still accurate.

"Thousands of years ago, when Vanessa chose the Sun Chaser family as the royal family, I'm afraid she asked Barbatos. The Sun Chaser family was actually the next royal family recognized by both of them, so this practice was inherited. In the past 800 years, the Sun Chaser family The Sunstrider family has always been a royal family, while the Morgan family and the Menethil family are royal parties, protecting the Sunstrider family, and the Sunstrider family has also been married to Gunnhild, who is most loyal to Mondstadt."

"Over the past 800 years, the Morgan family gradually decayed. They began to desire power, and secretly colluded with the Lawrence family to drug the Sun Chaser family. Finally, 200 years ago, the Sun Chaser family could no longer give birth to sons, and there were no descendants to succeed to the throne. , the Morgan family wanted to seize the opportunity to make a king-changing agreement. At this moment, the Menethil family was instigated by the Lawrence family and took the initiative to make a king-changing agreement with the Sunstrider family, causing the Morgan family's conspiracy to fail. They broke with the Lawrence family and became enemies, but the Morgan family is still secretly gathering strength, waiting for the next opportunity."

"The Sunstrider family had long been aware of something, so they secretly began to investigate. Finally, a hundred years later, they transferred back Kael'thas, a branch of the family in Stone Gate, and confronted Menethil to regain the right to inherit the next throne. , although there are still some doubts, there is a high probability that Kael'thas is the Sun Chaser family, and that branch did not all return to the Sun Chaser family, but changed places and went to Ava. Long small village.”

"Then Arthas went to the Whispering Forest, and Jaina seized the opportunity to fall in love with Kael'thas. However, the appearance of Fenna's Golden Sword caused a relationship crisis between the two engaged people. Kael'thas fell more in love with Fenna. Golden Sword, the two should even have a child secretly. This is why Kael'thas fled to Dadaupa Valley when Arthas came to attack. Fenna Golden Sword should have been killed long ago. He was sent to the Dadaupa Valley.”

"The child of Fenna Golden Sword and Kael'thas should be Fei Yingli Pendragon. After Kael'thas died in the battle, Fenna pretended to have a family fight with Jaina and went there after losing. Qingquan Town, married to a man named Pendragon, but this should be just a cover for the Sun Chaser family."

"Decades later, Fei Yingli Pendragon gave birth to Shirley Lan, and Shirley Lan gave birth to Yu Piao Ling... Then, by coincidence, the wind god oracle was issued, and the dragon factor was integrated into Yu Piao Ling's body. Within his body, he announced his identity as the orthodox heir..."

"Two hundred years later, the throne has once again returned to the hands of the Sun Chaser family, and with this result, both Vanessa and Barbatos on Sky Island will be very satisfied."

In Tevalin's Stunned , Barbatos tells such a story line from a broader perspective in Kakuto.

"And Merlin probably doesn't know all this."

Finally, Barbatos said this.

Chapter 235: The King of Knights: The First Life·Qin Liugan

"What the hell……"

Tevalin was shocked when he heard what Barbatos said. This was even more terrifying than he had just imagined.

"Did you really speculate like this?" Twarin asked in surprise.

"Yes, but it is not important to the result. It doesn't matter whether Yu Piaoling is a descendant of the Sun Chaser family or not. This will not affect the other party's eventual becoming the king of Mondstadt. Starting from the fusion of the dragon factor, he I embarked on a new path. It is estimated that the only people who can truly restore the truth of the matter are Mondstadt's earth line in the parallel world and her as the God of Wind. As I said just now, Merlin does not know about this, and all the elders of Yu Piaoling All died, and the Sunstrider family also disappeared. Only two girls, Jean Gawain and Barbara Gawain, were left in the Gunnhild family, and history drowned everything."

After saying this, Barbatos put down the bottle and added: "What I just said is just my guess."

"Okay." Tewarin nodded: "Even if it is a speculation, the content you added also surprised me, although it is indeed meaningless to Yu Piaoling."

The breeze blew, and Tvarin continued to watch the video. The breeze blew the braids on both sides of Barbatos' forehead, and a blue-green light emitted there, which was a symbol of being the god of wind.

"I, in this other world, really dare to test like crazy on the verge of death. You have to know that if it's a little later, the attack from the maintainers of heavenly principles will arrive in Mondstadt..."

Barbatos raised his head, looked at Sky Island, and sighed: "She has the courage to commit suicide and has the whole of Mondstadt at her fingertips. It can be seen from this that the story of Yu Piao Ling is probably destined to be a story. It’s a tragedy.”

"The so-called eternal throne is not that easy to achieve. If you deviate even slightly from the track, you will fall into a place of eternal disaster..."

In the video, Yu Piaoling meditated for a long time. He carefully chewed the story told by Merlin, slowly digesting and assimilating the conspiracy, conspiracy, royal methods, etc. contained in it.

He found that he seemed to be able to use this method easily, as if he had been exposed to these things in the past, but he didn't know when.

After a while, Yu Piaoling raised his head and breathed a long sigh of relief to Merlin: "Merlin, thank you for this lesson."

"Oh? It seems you have learned a lot."

Merlin put down his tea cup and looked at the falling rain with a smile. Then he showed a satisfied look: "You now know what difficulties and obstacles are waiting for you, right?"

"..."

Yu Piao Ling nodded solemnly, with a solemn expression.

"In this case, before the end of this class, I will give you one more sentence."

Merlin stood up, and Yu Piaoling followed suit.

"I don't know how much trouble you will encounter in the future, but when you encounter setbacks and difficulties, just think of this sentence."

"Okay, please speak."

Yu Piaoling frowned and looked at Merlin. He was curious about what shocking words the teacher would give next.

"When you encounter setbacks, you just need to ask yourself-"

Merlin coughed, cleared his throat, smiled slightly at Yu Piaoling's curious expression, and said, "Have you heard the children's screams?"

"Have you ever felt the city falling apart?"

"You never noticed the grinning grin of the successful plotter!"

"Have you ever thought...that friends are no longer friends and home is no longer home?"

"……Aha……"

Listening to Merlin's emotional words, Yu Piaoling opened his mouth speechlessly. He was almost sent away on the spot by Merlin's continuous questions!

"What's going on with these words! Why do each word sound so ordinary, but when combined together they are so thought-provoking!"

Yu Piaoling asked loudly.

"Ah hahaha! This is what my former master's friend wrote to her. I was shocked when I saw it. The master said it was a virus called 'Qin Liu Gan' , as long as you read it to others, it will make them fall into shock mode, start to doubt themselves, reflect on all their actions, and finally become a great knight with a heart full of justice!"

Merlin stretched out his right hand to stroke the back of his head, tilted his head and explained with a laugh.

"Hey, forget it! It sounds funny, so I'll just write it down..."

Because these thought-provoking words just now were so profound that Yu Piaoling could not forget them, so she had no choice but to say this.

Merlin then explained some things to Yu Piaoling, such as that from now on he would come here every night to give the king's teachings while sleeping, so that he would not be late.

At this moment, Yu Piaoling, who was unaware of the cruelty of the next lesson, waved his hand to show that he understood, then turned around and left.

"Holy crap, this is child abuse! You come here every day?" - Mondstadt Villager A.

"There is nothing we can do about it. He started very late. If he doesn't work hard, he will only be pulled further and further away by Morgan." - Mondstadt Villager B.

"But it's really wrong to do this! Merlin, have you heard the children's screams! Yu Piao Ling is crying!" - Mondstadt villager C.

"...Stop it, the feeling is about to spread!" - Mondstadt villager D.

In the video, Merlin said slowly while looking at the rainy figure gradually disappearing into Avalon.

"You are actually the artifact being forged now... The dragon factor has been absorbed and saturated with legend over the past millennium and cannot be promoted again, but the legend of Lady Vanessa is still circulating in the land of Mondstadt, and this legend will continue to The accumulation, if there is no carrier, will only be wasted.”

"When you integrate the dragon factor, you have actually become a new carrier. The legend about Vanessa will be absorbed into your body, sublimating you and becoming a demon..."

"The more chaotic Mondstadt is, the more desire it will have for Lady Vanessa, and the stronger you will become by absorbing the legend..."

"And this is the reason why you can defeat the White Dragon King in the future."

After saying this, Merlin sighed: "Hey... there are gains and losses. Such gains and losses often cannot be specifically evaluated. Whether the two ends of the scale are fair or not."

"Oh no! In this way, isn't he always getting stronger?" - Mondstadt Villager A.

"As long as it is on the land of Mondstadt, the legend of Vanessa will not stop. It is really like a chicken laying an egg and a chicken laying an egg, and it will be endless..." - Mondstadt villager B.

"So, what's the price?" - Mondstadt villager C.

"Freedom? Or humanity? And of course gender..." - Mondstadt villager D.

Chapter 236: The King of Knights: The Preparation of the First Merlin

Avalon in the video gradually disappeared, and the scene returned to a carriage. Merlin was seen sitting inside with his eyes closed, surrounded by guardian knights escorting him.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Little Arturia is so smart and obedient. The next journey of teaching will not be so difficult..."

Then the scene passed, and the carriage was still heading towards Mondstadt. In the next few days, it rained and fell. During the day, I and Diluc Kai received knightly and etiquette training from Cripps Kai in the morning, and participated in farming in the afternoon. Due to the war, the villages near Morningside Winery are quite sparse, and there is a shortage of young and middle-aged labor. Even great lords like Clipps Kay have to personally participate in the planting of grapes. This also proves in disguise the decline of the Mondstadt Empire. scene.

Rosalia, on the other hand, has been taking care of Yu Piao Ling at home, who comes back in the evening, and helps him prepare three meals a day. The audience was surprised to find that this time Yu Piao Ling finally no longer has to learn cooking and blacksmithing.

And he really has no talent at all in farming. He just farms seriously and is quite satisfactory. There is nothing outstanding about him.

Of course, this also excludes the fact that his strength is far beyond that of ordinary people. After all, farm tools are not heavy and all that is needed is endurance. Although Yu Piao Ling has high endurance, he is young and is strictly required to do what he has to do every day. Good planning.

When it's time to sleep at night, Yu Piaoling will be transported to Avalon again, where he will be guided by King Merlin in his dreams, including the current situation of the Seven Kingdoms in Teyvat, the history of Teyvat, the modern history of the Mondstadt Empire, and the ancient demon gods. War, military theory, military chess deductions, points that need attention in large-scale knight battles, the importance of food and grass logistics, etc.

During the day, Yu Piaoling occasionally followed Cripps Kay to the stables to learn to take care of the horses. Clipps Kay also gave Yu Piaoling a white pony. Yu Piaoling liked the pony very much and planned to give it to him. Come up with a name.

After choosing among names such as "Special Week", "Flying on the Grass", "Silent Suzuka" and "Rice Bath" for a long time, Yu Piaoling finally accepted Merlin's opinion and called it - East Stallion.

When asked why Merlin wanted to be named East Stallion instead of the 'Miyu' he chose, Merlin said with a serious face: "You almost broke the law just now, you know!"

"..."

In the end, Yu Piao Ling →_→ looked at Merlin unhappily, and could only reluctantly accept the result that his beloved horse was called Dong Stallion. Although he occasionally secretly called it Mi Yu, but as Yu Piao Ling got older As the number increases, such shouting becomes less and less common.

When Merlin's motorcade was approaching Mondstadt, a guardian knight hurried over, approached the carriage, and handed a secret letter to Merlin through the window.

Merlin put the staff aside unhappily. Although as a palace mage, he always kept his mood and anger hidden, and showed a frivolous appearance to others, but those who knew Merlin's details knew that nightmares did not exist. emotional creature,

Opening the letter, Merlin read the information written on it, and then a ball of fire appeared in his hand, burning it to ashes.
