The man brought two cups of mixed dandelion wine to the coffee table, and slowly sat down, "It won't take long. The top fools have reached an agreement and are ready to fully support us!"

Yilok's eyes widened suddenly, "Really?"

The man nodded, "Maybe the Monds behaved too disobediently and angered the fools."

"We... what should I do?"

"Our strength has been assembled, and all actions are under the unified command of a certain executive officer. All you need to do is to prepare your people to take over the city defense at a critical moment."

Ilok let out a breath slowly, "It turns out that you are already ready... God of the wind, watching that idiot Schubert walk through the city every day, talking everywhere about restoring the glory of the Lawrence family, I almost fell asleep. not good!"

The man smiled slightly, "I put him in the city on purpose. Don't you think the general impression of 'The Lawrence family is nothing but a bunch of idiots full of gibberish' works in our favor?"

Yilok looked at the man incredulously, "This...he is your real brother!"

The man sneered and said, "That's why I bestowed him with such an honor—contributing to the family as a trash!"

Ilok was silent.

Seeing this, the man softened his tone slightly, raised his glass and said, "Remember, only successful people are qualified to show mercy to others! For the glory of the nobility, we cannot fail!"

Ilok's eyes slowly became firmer, and he raised his glass to touch him, "Yes! Mr. Heinz Lawrence! For the glory of the nobility!"

Chapter 39 Little Keli Lost Freedom

Early the next morning, Niwa quietly left the caravan and rushed to Mond City alone.

It will take time to obtain information about the Fools' transportation team, and he can just go to the West Wind Knights in this spare time.

As we all know, Mr. A, who Niwa needs to ask for advice, usually huddles in the Longji Snow Mountain to do research.Even if Qin is willing to help, you have to try your luck when you meet Teacher A.

However, according to Di Luque, the chances of encountering Abedo in Mond City these days should be much higher than usual.

There is no other reason, the badminton festival is coming soon.

As one of the biggest festivals in Mond, the Badminton Festival is almost equivalent to the National Day in Mond.

During the Badminton Festival, the people of Mond will organize an all-night carnival that lasts for several days, and use enough alcohol consumption to pay for a month's worth of alcohol consumption to praise the god of wind and the free city-state.

As the core of this carnival, Mond City is naturally the most lively place.

Some residents who lived far away even rushed to the vicinity of Mond City several days in advance.The hotels in the city were full, so they stayed at the farms on the outskirts of the city, or camped directly by the fruit wine lake.

It is conceivable how much security pressure in Mond City must be at this time of year.

If it was in previous years, the West Wind Knights would have spread out all the combat units early, and cleaned up the vast area from Wangfeng Mountain in the north, Yingxiang Beach in the east, Dadaupa Valley in the south, and Mingguan Gorge in the west to avoid Monster Raid Festival.

However, with the expedition led by Grand Commander Falga, the remaining troops of the West Wind Knights are not enough to support such a large-scale suppression work. The De family sent troops to protect the trade route between Qingquan Town and Chenxi Winery.

In this state, Qin, the deputy head and acting head of the group, naturally couldn't allow the fish-monsters under him to continue to slack off. It is estimated that even Lisa will be assigned patrol tasks.

Therefore, it is likely that Abedo will be forced to stay near Mond City during the badminton festival.

Mond City is located on a small island in the fruit wine lake, surrounded by water, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the whole city is only connected to the land by a stone bridge through the main entrance in the southeast.

In addition to the land route, there is a small wharf outside the north gate of the city, which undertakes part of the freight function.

The badminton festival is approaching, needless to say that the whole city is decorated with lights and festoons, what is even more exaggerated is that on the east bank of the fruit wine lake outside the city, a large number of tents are lined up along the post road, stretching for ten miles!

Fortunately, the West Wind Knights have a wealth of experience in maintaining public security. Even with limited manpower, they still set up camping areas along the road, dividing tent building areas, sanitation areas, and picnic areas, and also established fire protection zones between the camping areas. .

Due to the shortage of manpower, the Knights even temporarily hired a large number of civilians to maintain law and order.

Fortunately, the people of Mond are also experienced in the badminton festival. Many of them are not camping for the first time. Even though there is no guard of West Wind Knights on site, everything is still in order.

Stepping into the city gate, Niwa found that the city of Mond was joyful and peaceful, and the smell of flowers and fine wine permeated every corner of the city.

In this early summer, everyone was smiling and lazily enjoying the delicious food and drinks after the summer harvest. Only the Zephyr knights wearing armor and chest badges carried out their respective tasks in a hurry.

It seems that Falga's sudden departure of people has really stretched the Knights' manpower...

Niwa thought secretly.

As he walked, he suddenly discovered that a group of Zephyr knights wearing special coats of arms seemed to be doing nothing.

Most of them just perform some patrol tasks in the city, and some of them still have time to rest and have a drink in the tavern.

"They are the knights of the gendarmerie squad, under Inspector Ilok. This team claims to be the knights who supervise the knights. They usually do not participate in combat missions, but only maintain the order within the knight order." A citizen who knew the situation told Niwa.

Niwa was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a soft and pleasant voice coming from beside him.

"Hold... sorry, please let me go..."

He turned his head and saw only four or five large wooden boxes stacked on top of each other, and a lace-trimmed apron exposed under the wooden boxes.

He hurriedly moved half a step away, only to see the gray hair, rose headdress and half a small face blocked behind the wooden box.

Isn't this Noelle?

The little maid of the West Wind Knights was a little shy in the eyes of the stranger, nodded in embarrassment, and left.

Just after the maid left, Niwa suddenly found a figure wrapped in a black robe following him from a distance.

In his perception, the vitality of the man in black is not weak, it seems to be at the level of a debt handler.

Fools?What are they following Noelle for?

Niwa thought for a moment, but couldn't think of a clue for a while, so he could only move forward.

After climbing up the long stone steps, he finally came to the gate of the headquarters of the West Wind Knights.This is a square castle, with the west wind eagle coat of arms carved in stone on both sides of the gate.

Compared to the bustling city, this place is surprisingly deserted, except for a few West Wind knights who come in and out, no one approaches.

The Zephyr Knight guarding the gate simply asked Niwa why he was here and let him in. His carelessness made Niwa suspect that what he had entered was not a central institution that governs a country, but a certain chamber of commerce.

Soon, Niwa met Qin, the deputy head and acting head of the Zephyr Knights, the contemporary eldest daughter of the Gunnhild family, in the not-so-spacious head office.

Qin was wearing a well-fitting knight uniform, and her boots and breeches made her legs extraordinarily slender.

Seeing Niwa coming in, she first politely asked him to wait on the sofa at the side, and then came to the reception area after reviewing the official documents at hand, and poured him a cup of tea in person.

"Sorry, the Knights are short of manpower recently, and they are quite busy with business. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Niwa handed Ningguang and Di Luke the letters of introduction.

"I would like to ask the chief alchemist of your knight order some related questions. Is it convenient?"

Qin smiled, "Abedo? I sent him a letter from the Adventurer's Association a few days ago, and he should be on his way back to Mond City... Mr. Niwa, why don't you leave me an address, and I will meet him when he comes back." Tell him."

Niwa nodded, stood up and said, "Then I won't bother you any more, and I'll take my leave."

Qin politely sent Niwa out of the office.

Crisp footsteps sounded in the empty hall, and suddenly, a door next to it was opened, and a fiery figure flashed out.

"Is Brother Abedo back?"

Niwa turned his head and saw that the little loli with elf-pointed ears was clenching her fists with both hands, looking at herself and Qin expectantly with her big watery eyes.

He was almost blushed by this expression!

Qin helplessly supported her forehead and said, "No, Keli. Go back quickly."

The light in Keli's eyes suddenly dimmed, she lowered her head extremely lonely, and turned around to return to the room.

This pitiful look made Niyu a little distressed, and he couldn't help asking: "Captain Qin, did Keli make another mistake? Ah, I also heard people say that if she makes a mistake, she will be imprisoned by you." ..."

Qin shook her head helplessly and said: "Not this time. This child...is a bit special. The Knights are short of manpower these days. I really can't get anyone to take care of her. I can only ground her temporarily and wait for Abedo to return. in his care."

Niwa suddenly understood.

Now it's the badminton festival, and there are people everywhere in and around the city. Qin is afraid that Keli will accidentally bomb and hurt people, causing irreversible consequences.

He looked at Keli's lonely back and suggested, "Why don't you let me take care of this child for a while?"

Chapter 40 Diona's Secret Passage

Qin was stunned for a moment, and thought to herself: "This Dan Yu is the envoy of Liyue, and with Ning Guang and Di Luke's endorsements, he shouldn't be a bad person... But Keli, the child, looks like she might get hurt..."

So she smiled awkwardly: "It's not that I can't trust Mr. Niwa, it's mainly because this child...she is a God's Eye holder, and she is quite mischievous, with a destructive power of a billion points..."

Niwa smiled and opened the front of his clothes, showing the God's Eye hidden in his waist, "Coincidentally, I am also the holder of the God's Eye. That child is a fire element, right? I happen to be a water element, so I should be able to restrain her. "

As he said that, he smiled and winked at Keli, "And I think Keli is quite obedient, she will be obedient, right?"

Keli immediately regained her spirits, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said, "Kelly is very good! Keli will definitely listen..."

"Niwa."

"Kori will definitely listen to Niwa-san!"

Qin looked at Niyu, then at Keli, still hesitating.

Niwa thought for a while, and with a slight wave of his hand, he actually called out layers of pearl-like water bubbles, and lifted Keli directly into the air.

"Captain Qin, can I still see my strength?"

Qin was stunned by this hand.

If you just use a bubble to seal the enemy, this level of water elemental control can even be achieved by a water abyss mage, but that will make the trapped person suffocate or suffer water elemental damage.

Niwa's move seems to be just changing "seal" to "support", but in fact, dozens of small blisters need to be manipulated at the same time to avoid Keli being trapped in the bubble, and they have to be controlled to move synchronously, which requires a lot of control It is more than a hundred times stronger than before!

How did he develop this terrifying control over the elements?

Keli, who was lifted into the air by Bubbles, didn't understand so much, but her eyes lit up and she yelled with excitement.

Seeing that Keli was so happy for the first time in several days, Qin felt a little soft-hearted. She nodded and said, "Then Keli will ask Mr. Niwa for the time being. After Mr. finds a place in the city, you can find a West Wind Knight to give me a message." ...If the hotel is full, Mister may also consider staying at the headquarters of the Knights Order."

"no problem."

Niwa snapped his fingers, the blisters burst one by one, and he slowly let Keli down.

She immediately turned around and ran back to the room to put on the huge adventure backpack, then ran back quickly, and took the initiative to hold Niwa's hand.

"We're going out! Goodbye, Captain Qin!"

She's really smart at figuring out how to escape and play...

Seeing Qin's helpless expression, Niwa couldn't help laughing out loud, and was pulled away by Keli, leaving the castle hall as if fleeing.

After finally escaping from the headquarters of the Knights Order, Keli finally breathed a sigh of relief and stretched her waist, as if she was breathing free air.

But she quickly remembered that there was a companion beside her, and she showed a cute smile to Niwa.

"Brother Niwa, where are you going to take Keli to play today?"

Niwa smiled and patted her head and said, "Brother Niyu is a foreigner, why don't Keli take Brother Niwa to play, okay?"

"Okay! Then let's go... go to Fruit Wine Lake to fry fish! Mond's perch is delicious, especially the ones caught from Fruit Wine Lake! This is no nonsense, even my mother agrees with Keli's idea oh!"

Keli said while pulling Niwa towards the city gate.

However, when they walked near the famous Goethe Hotel, the two could not move forward.

Two Zephyr knights blocked the road, shouting to guide tourists around.

"I'm very sorry, everyone! Due to the accidental construction of the celebration, the signboard of the Cattail Tavern was accidentally dropped, and the main street of Mond needs to be temporarily closed for a period of time! Please detour!"

"If you go out of the city, it is recommended to detour to the north gate!"

The north gate of Mond City was originally a side gate, with narrow roads and small gates, so few people pass by on weekdays.Now thousands of troops are crowding this Huarong Road, and the road is immediately blocked.

When Keli was dizzy looking at "more people than super many", she suddenly heard a greeting, "Huh? Keli, why are you here? Who are you?"

Niwa turned his head to look, but saw a pink-haired cat-eared loli about the same height as Keli, with his hands on his hips, looking at Niwa like a little adult, his eyes full of suspicion.

Keli turned her head and said hello, "Sister Diona! This is Brother Niwa, it's..."

She didn't know how to describe it for a while, so she could only look at Niwa for help.

Niwa smiled and said, "I can be regarded as Keli's temporary guardian. Captain Qin asked me to take care of her until Mr. Abedo returns."

Diona then withdrew her vigilant gaze and nodded at him.

Keli held back Diona in frustration, "There are so many people, the road is blocked, and Keli can't go out of the city..."

Diona touched her head on tiptoe, and comforted her like a little adult: "It's okay! I know there is another way to get out! I'll take you there!"

Keli blinked her eyes, "But, isn't sister Diona still busy destroying the Mond Wine Industry?"

Diona glanced at Niwa in embarrassment, "That...the signboard of the tavern fell and injured the lady proprietress, Miss Margaret, and the tavern had to be closed for a few days... Actually it's just right, I can go back to Qingquan Town for a few days, see Zhu Daddy told him not to drink too much alcohol!"

As she spoke, she dragged Keli to the south of the city.
