People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

Having said that, Rhode could not refuse Wendy's fraudulent behavior and could only silently accept that he had become the "bodyguard" of the God of Wind.

As for who is protecting whom, it is hard to say.

The wine in the glass was drunk again.

This drinking buddy gathering, which was not too joyful for Rhodes, came to an end.

Step out of the angel's gift.

Thinking about the fact that someone would treat her to drinks, provide her with meals, and provide her with accommodation, Wendy's steps became faster and faster, and she followed Rod back to the two-story building he rented.

As soon as I walked in the door.

Wendy took a quick look around and her eyes suddenly lit up. She exclaimed "Wow" and rushed to the small wine cabinet on the first floor in two steps. She read out the years and types of the wines in it one by one as if they were treasures.

This is a decoration left here by the landlord.

When signing a rental agreement.

The landlord said.

If the wine is consumed, additional payment will be required.

“This wine costs extra”

Rod tried to stop Wendy from uncorking the wine.

But he was still too late.

Wendy had already started to show off. He drank a bottle of dandelion wine weighing one kilogram in just a few minutes.

He had already drunk a lot of wine from the angel's gift, and after drinking this bottle of wine, his eyes immediately became blurry and his steps became unsteady.

"Yes, are there any apples?"

Although he was obviously drunk, he did not fall down. Instead, he asked Rod for his favorite apple.

"Only apple cider."

Rhodes replied unhappily.

This is the truth.

He had not expected that Wendy would follow him back, so he did not prepare anything. In this temporary rental house, there was only half a bottle of non-alcoholic drink that he bought in the afternoon to quench his thirst.

"It's okay, I, I have it."

In front of Rhode, Wendy took out a bright red apple from her pocket, wiped it twice, and started eating it with big mouthfuls of "crunch".

This action really made Rhode's mouth twitch, and he had the urge to beat someone up.

Considering that Wendy is the God of Wind, his chance of winning is almost zero after rounding off, so he could only grit his teeth and say this.

"You have it yourself, but you're asking me for it."

"I just forgot."

"You have a really good memory."

"Hey, thanks for the compliment."

"Am I complimenting you?"

Rod was discouraged by Wendy's shamelessness. He pointed to the stairs weakly and said, "There is a bed in the study upstairs. You can sleep there tonight."

Arrange the room allocation for two people.

Rod stopped paying attention to Wendy and went upstairs.

But before going up, he did not forget to remind: "Drink less, we still have important things to do tomorrow."

"Don't worry, don't worry."

Wendy waved her hand casually, but her other hand had already reached for another bottle of wine.

"Ugh--"

Rod couldn't take care of him, so he had to go upstairs by himself. After closing the door, he lay down without taking off his clothes.

This sleep.

Rod slept soundly.

It was not until the next day when the alarm on the void terminal woke him up that he finally opened his eyes.

I was confused for a moment.

He sat up straight in an instant, and asked in surprise, "Why am I sleeping so soundly?!"

Rhodes has always been a light sleeper and would be woken up by the slightest noise.

This is a habit developed from the experience of sleeping in the desert.

Even after he moved to the safe village of Aru, he was unable to get rid of his restless sleeping habit.

Only in Nashida's dream world can he truly relax.

But he actually slept so soundly last night that he passed out?

at this time.

Rhodes heard a whisper coming from under his feet.

"Mmm, mmm, such a crisp apple. So delicious."

It was Wendy's voice.

But the sound didn't come from the bed.

Rhodes turned his head and looked over.

Wendy, who was supposed to be sleeping in the study, was now lying on the floor with his arms and legs spread out. There were traces of saliva around his mouth. Two empty wine bottles were rolling beside him. As he talked in his sleep, a strong smell of alcohol came towards him.

"Who is whose bodyguard?"

The corners of Rhodes' mouth moved slightly, and then he sighed.

He probably knew why he slept so soundly.

Just like when he was in Xumi, only Nashida's dream world could make him truly relax, having Wendy around seemed to have the same effect.

I don’t know if it’s because the power of the God of Wind allows people to sleep deeply, or if it’s because having the god by my side makes me feel safe.

Anyway, the fact that he could sleep so soundly was definitely due to Wendy.

"never mind."

"Let's do business first."

There is no doubt that Wendy is not a bad person.

Although he used the deal to force himself to get deeply involved in the dragon disaster, Rhode knew very well that Wendy had no intention of harming him. If he was in danger, he would even try his best to protect him.

That’s also part of the deal.

After all, Rhodes wanted to bring the Heart of God back to Xumi.

As the other party to the contract, Wendy had to protect Rod's safety in Mond.

If you think so.

The feeling of having suffered a huge loss yesterday suddenly felt much better.

Finished washing.

Seeing that Wendy was still sleeping soundly, Rod shook his head gently, got up and went out, and bought two breakfasts from the Deer Hunter Restaurant.

Wait until he returns to his residence.

Wendy just got up.

He didn't wear two pairs of pigtails like he did yesterday, but let his long hair hang loosely on his shoulders. At first glance, Rhodes almost mistook it for a delicate little girl who had come to his house.

“Ha—ah~~”

"Yeah, there's breakfast."

Wendy, who had rubbed her long flowing hair into a mess, yawned. When she saw the breakfast in Rhode's hand, she immediately became excited and ran over. She grabbed the freshly baked fisherman's toast and stuffed it into her mouth without caring that it was hot.

While eating, he mumbled, "Do you have salad? Apple salad is best."

"No."

Rhodes, who had a rare good night's sleep, was in a much better attitude than yesterday. He replied and sat at the table to eat his breakfast.

In fact, the breakfast in Wendy's hand was the breakfast he prepared for herself.

But Rhodes is not picky about food, so it doesn't matter what he eats.

Rod and Wendy both eat very quickly.

But when the two had just finished their meal and were about to go out.

Wendy's originally cynical expression suddenly became serious.

Seeing his appearance, Rhodes realized that something might have happened and was about to ask, but suddenly, an inexplicable palpitation surged into his heart.

There was no warning from the void terminal.

It doesn't look like it's Tevarin who's attacking.

But this strong feeling of palpitations made Rhodes feel extremely irritable, and as time passed, this feeling of irritability became more and more uncomfortable.

This is not finished.

Breathing also became a little difficult.

Worse.

Rhodes could clearly feel that the connection between him and the elemental force became unstable, sometimes strong, sometimes weak, making him feel like vomiting.

This was the first time he encountered this situation.

Before, when signing the contract with Dolly, there was a situation where the connection with the Eye of God was lost, and nothing like that happened since then.

"The ground veins are messed up."

Wendy gave an explanation at the right time.

"Leyline?"

Rhodes's face didn't look very good.

He was a top student of the Sulun School, so he naturally knew what it meant when the earth veins were disrupted.

However, it was the first time that he encountered such a situation of elemental turbulence caused by the disorder of earth veins, which really made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Ah."

Wendy stared in one direction without blinking, and said with a serious face: "Tevalin is activating the Four Wind Temples one by one."

"Temple of the Four Winds?"

Rod knew the name.

There are four temples in Mond, representing the Dragon of the East Wind, the Eagle of the West Wind, the Lion of the South Wind and the Wolf of the North Wind. Although these temples have long been abandoned, the power of the wind gods held by the four wind guardians in the past is still retained inside.

Tevarin himself is the Dragon of the East Wind.

Therefore, it does not need the help of the temple, it only needs to burn itself to release the power of the East Wind Dragon.

And that’s what it’s doing now.

It was to activate the other three temples, thereby disturbing Mondstadt's earth veins and elemental flows, and setting off a hurricane powerful enough to cover the entire Mondstadt.

If Tevarin's previous attack on Mond could only be regarded as a minor incident.

Once the power of the four winds is fully activated, it will cause irreparable damage to the lives of the people of Mond.

"Are you going to stop it?"

Rhodes asked with a frown.

He had now gotten somewhat accustomed to the disrupted flow of elements, and his body felt much more comfortable than before. His emotions also relaxed as well, and he was no longer as irritable as before.

"No."

Unexpectedly, Wendy shook her head and said, "With my current strength, I can only barely calm it down, but I can't control the poisonous blood in its body."
