202. Chapter 193 The Lady Who Refused to Leave

Chapter 193 The Lady Who Refused to Leave

No matter how reluctant you are.

When the lady came to Xumi as the official envoy of the Winter Solstice, Rhodes had to meet her at the Ministry of Education as she requested.

In fact, as Rhodes.

It was obvious that he was not qualified to have an equal conversation with envoys sent by other countries.

Or rather.

Until now, he is still only a villager of Aru Village and a Dāśyapa of the Teachings Institute in Xumi, and he has no other official identity.

This was the result of Rhodes's own evasion.

According to Nashida's idea, at least a formal official identity is necessary.

But Rhodes was afraid of trouble.

So I rejected them all.

Even the Academic Project Department of the Fatwa Council issued an ultimatum, but he was too lazy to report it. For this, Gulesh and Nafis scolded him a lot.

However, although Rhodes' two teachers scolded him, they did not continue to urge him. They just said "Come if you want or not", and let the matter pass lightly.

"Ugh--"

On the way to the Church of the Holy Spirit, Rhodes kept sighing.

If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you.

When in Mond.

He had gone against the lady over the matter of borrowing God's Heart and even injured an executive officer.

But later on, Zhidong never came to cause trouble again, so he gradually came to think that Zhidong just accepted his bad luck and gave up on revenge.

Unexpectedly, what was supposed to come came anyway.

As for why the lady came to see him.

Rhodes had a rough idea in his mind.

What else could it be?

It is nothing but the heart of God.

Therefore, before coming here, Rhodes deliberately took a detour back to Hope City and asked Nashida for the Heart of the God of Wind before going to the Order House to find her.

Under the arrangement of El Haisen.

Rhodes met the lady in the reception room for receiving foreign guests.

strictly speaking.

This was the first official meeting between the two of them.

When he was in Mond before, he had secretly observed the lady, but the lady only knew the name Rhodes.

As soon as we met.

The lady crossed her arms and looked Rhode up and down. She snorted coldly, "The person who injured the puppet turned out to be such a young boy. Humph, Zhidong's face has really been disgraced by that puppet."

Rhode ignored her sarcasm and threw Wendy's Heart of God out directly: "Take it. I know you are here to find this thing."

"Ok?"

The lady, who was about to say something, was caught off guard by Rhodes' move.

It is true that she came to ask for the Heart of God.

But in her original plan.

She was planning to meet with the Grass God directly and reach a deal on the Heart of God with him in the name of the Queen of Winter.

This is different from when we were in Mond.

Although the lady still maintained an arrogant attitude towards other gods, before she set out for Mount Xumi, the Queen of Winter personally ordered her not to be too offensive to the God of Grass.

Although the lady didn't quite understand why the Queen, who was so powerful, would be so polite to a weak god who could be imprisoned by her own believers.

Out of loyalty and unwavering trust in the Winter Queen.

She decided to follow the Queen's instructions and treat the Grass God with the most upright attitude.

And the reason why he asked Rhodes to meet him.

Simply because she wanted to see what kind of person this bastard was who ruined her plan in Mond and beat that foul-mouthed puppet so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for a month.

So before I even opened my mouth.

The lady had never expected that Rhodes would directly throw the Heart of God to her.

And it's not over yet.

After sending the Wind God's Heart away, Rhode said, "I can't give you Nashida's Heart yet. Isn't Tartaglia stationed in Liyue now? I'll send it to him after a while."

"."

The lady looked at Rhodes with a strange look in her eyes.

Everything he was going to say to the Grass God was said by Rhodes.

Moreover, how could Rhodes have the ability to make decisions for the Grass God and directly promise the Grass God's Heart.

Think of this.

The lady couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly.

If what Rhodes said now was instructed by the Grass God, then it would be easy to say.

If not.

Then she felt that she needed to urge the people in Hearth House to update the information on Xumi.

The lady recalled the Fatui's current intelligence on Rhodes.

A stranger who suddenly appeared in Aru Village, calling himself the Envoy of the Red King. He has a very high reputation in the Xumi Desert and is suspected to be not a native of Teyvat. He led the operation to save the Grass God and is the most capable assistant of the Grass God. During his mission to Mond, he became friends with the high-level members of the Mond Knights of Favonius and reached a deal with the Wind God, but the specific content of the deal is unclear.

Hearth House is the intelligence agency of the Fatui.

This organization, nominally called the Welfare Institute, is an intelligence agency controlled by the fourth executive officer's servant, Alechino. Most of the children who leave here are engaged in obtaining intelligence for Zhidong.

Some of them would lurk in other countries, some would carry out orders issued by executive officers to collect intelligence, and some people with average qualifications would join the army and go out to fight.

The lady had a good personal relationship with the servants. She visited Hearth House several times and both the host and the guest had a great time. She liked the children there very much.

However, the relationship with the Hearth House is good.

The lady felt that it was necessary for her to remind Alechino to urge her intelligence personnel more.

The information about Rhodes must be incomplete.

At least the relationship between Rhodes and Grass God is definitely not what was mentioned in the intelligence.

I am afraid.

The relationship between them is not that of superiors and subordinates, it is likely to be much closer than that.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

"If you're alright, I'll leave first."

After sending the Heart of God and making a promise, Rhodes looked at the thoughtful lady and asked with his head tilted.

"."

Originally, the lady wanted to say that there was no more.

The reason she came to Xumi was simply because when she was in Mondstadt, she discovered that the Heart of the God of Wind was missing. Combining the clues from the dragon disaster and the information provided by the intelligence personnel of the Hearth House, she finally deduced that the Heart of the God was most likely taken away by Rhodes.

Considering that Sanbing, the puppet that was famous for its resistance to beatings, was beaten into such a miserable state.

She did not rashly repeat what she had done in Mondstadt, but instead applied to the Queen of Winter to use formal diplomatic means to bring the Heart of God back to Winter.

According to the original plan.

The purpose of her coming to Xumi has now been achieved. She can now set off to return home to report, and then go to Liyue to carry out the next task of obtaining the Heart of the God of Geo.

But after a brief conversation with Rod.

The lady now has changed her mind.

She decided not to leave for the time being and stayed in Xumi to observe carefully what was different about this unique guy, Rhodes.

So the lady gave Rod's answer, and it became like this.

"I heard that Xumi is building a new city recently. In line with the Queen's kindness, I will go to visit the new city. If there is anything we can help, we will spare no effort to help. Mr. Rhodes can go and inform Lord Grass God first. I hope you will not let down the Queen's kindness."

Translate into human language.

What I mean is that we, the Fatui, want to interfere in your internal affairs of Xumi, and you'd better not make excuses, otherwise it will make everyone embarrassed.

203. Chapter 194 If the Envoy of Winter who had taken out the Heart of the Wind God met the Mond people

Chapter 194: What if the Envoy of Winter who had taken out the Heart of the Wind met the Mond people?

Rhodes agreed much more readily than the lady had imagined.

In the lady's imagination.

Rhode should have tried to shirk her diplomatic terminology of using the country's strength to exert pressure.

But the reality is.

Rhode seemed to be unable to hear the hidden meaning in her words at all. He agreed immediately and even agreed to a time with her.

What is even more confusing to the lady is...

Rhode even said that he would personally lead the way for the lady.

"I have been in charge of the new city recently. No one knows it better than me."

"Oh, right."

"Nashida is also there. Don't you want to meet the Grass God? That's great. You can meet her there."

Rhodes enthusiastically introduced the situation of Hope City to the lady, and kept talking until the lady became a little impatient. He seemed to have finally said enough and left the foreign guest reception room with a smile.

I just went out.

Rhodes's face changed expression.

He flexed his wrist, glanced sideways behind him, then chuckled and walked away quickly.

Want to interfere in Xumi's internal affairs.

If this had been achieved when Hazard was still in office, it is possible that he would have succeeded.

But now.

This is not something Zhidong can interfere with just because he wants to.

After going out.

Rhodes turned left and headed towards the Great Sage's office.

Same as when Hazard was still in office.

The most heavily guarded place inside the Ministry of Education is still the office of the Great Sage, and the number of guards guarding here is even greater than that of the Jingshan Palace.

Fortunately.

Given Rhodes' status, the guards did not dare to stop him for a moment, allowing him to go unhindered to meet the current great sage, his teacher Nafis.

"Hey, look who's here?"

"Isn't this our great hero of Xumi, the divine messenger of the Red King? How come a busy man like you has time to visit an old man like me?"

As usual, the meeting between the master and the disciple started with Nafis's sarcastic remarks.

As a disciple.
