People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

Setale looked down at her naturally dark skin that could never turn white no matter how much she took care of it, and she couldn't help but doubt Rhode's identity.

But this is indeed what is written in the void.

Is it possible that there will be errors in Void's records?

"I come from Aru Village. From a place of origin, I am indeed a desert dweller."

Rhodes was also helpless.

This question is often asked to him.

His skin color is indeed very different from that of the desert people, and he has been doing farm work under the scorching sun for more than half a year, and his skin has not been tanned at all.

This resulted in him always having to explain the matter to people who didn't know him.

“From Aru Village”

Looking at the words displayed on the void terminal in front of her, Setale shook her head and did not continue to ask any more questions.

At the same time, a question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time also made her even more confused.

"He really came from the desert, so how did he do it?"

This problem has troubled her for many days.

until today.

Finally, I had the opportunity to ask Rhodes about it.

"Senior Sister Setale came to me late at night specifically to ask me about this matter?"

In the dormitory, Rhodes handed him a cup of tea and sat across from Setare.

This was a dormitory specially arranged for him by Nafist after he enrolled in school. It was not far from Nafist's office.

Unlike other freshmen who still have to live together.

As a disciple of the Sage, Rhodes not only has the treatment of a single dormitory, but also has two dormitories.

At Sipandama College, Gyulesh also arranged a dormitory for him, and he would live there when he went to Sipandama College to attend classes.

But the material benefits only go so far.

Everything else, including the furnishings in this dormitory, is no different from other freshman dormitories.

Setare held the teacup in both hands, looked around, then returned her gaze to Rhodes, nodded and said, "The sages had a big fight about this that day."

It is not good to talk about wise men behind their backs.

But she still told the story about Khawaja's doubts about Rhodes that day. As for how Nafis defended Rhodes, she didn't say anything.

Wait for her to say it.

Rhodes asked with a smile: "What do you think, Senior Sister Setale? Do you think I really learned knowledge secretly? Or do you think that all my current knowledge comes from canned knowledge?"

"I do not know."

"That's why I came to ask you."

Setale said truthfully: "I was also born in the desert. How difficult is it to learn knowledge in the desert? I know very well that a person like you can achieve your current results simply by studying in the desert. To be honest, it is really difficult to learn knowledge in the desert." People are convinced.”

"In other words, you also think it's possible that I'm using canned knowledge, right?"

Rhodes said such words that could be grasped at any time, but his face did not move at all, and he even smiled brighter than before.

But Setare couldn't answer this.

She did have this idea.

And she's not alone in having such thoughts.

Rumors about Rhodes have been getting more and more intense in the Order House in the past few days.

Nine times out of ten, they are questioning where he learned his knowledge from. Rumors about him using canned knowledge are also rampant. Even many students who originally didn't care much about Rhodes are discussing this matter.

Setare knew.

The use of canned knowledge is strictly prohibited in the Order Academy. Once this matter is confirmed, Rhodes will definitely be expelled from the academy.

But Sage Nafes and Sage Cyrus were convinced that Rhodes did not use canned knowledge, and personally accepted him as a disciple. Relying on the reputation of the two sages, they did not make the rumors even more popular. layer.

But Setare did not come to confirm this matter and then find an opportunity to drive Rhodes out of the Order Academy.

She came here specifically to remind Rhodes because everyone was from the desert.

"It doesn't matter if Junior Rhodes has really used canned knowledge. Master Sage has accepted you as a disciple, which means they won't care about your past. If anyone asks, refuse to admit it even to death. Just don't use it again in the future."

Such a kind reminder for Setare.

Rhodes' response was to take out the experimental record he had shown Nafis before.

at the same time.

He asked again: "Has Senior Sister Setale ever read my test paper?"

"No."

"After the meeting that day, Sage Nafis and Sage Cyrus took your test papers away."

Setare replied while carefully flipping through the experimental report that Rhodes gave her.

The deeper she looked, the more solemn her expression became.

Although she is a scholar of the Mingron sect, the knowledge of the Shengron sect is also recorded in the Void Terminal. After a little inquiry, Setale discovered the difference in this experimental report.

Rhodes also said in time: "How is it? Have you found any information about this knowledge in the void? This is what I used in my test paper."

"No, no."

Setare raised her head in confusion and looked at Rhodes in disbelief. Her surprised expression was like seeing an alien.

A desert citizen from Aru Village.

He actually made an experimental conclusion that was not strictly based on the current system of the Ecclesiastical Order.

Is this really something a desert dweller can do?

"You understand why Teacher Nafis firmly believes that I have not used canned knowledge and is willing to accept me as a disciple."

Rhodes smiled.

How could a system that was inconsistent with the current knowledge of the Order be obtained through canned knowledge?

As for saying he learned knowledge secretly.

This is true.

He did learn secretly, and he learned a lot secretly.

But compared to using canned knowledge, stealing knowledge can only be regarded as a trivial matter, the kind that even Sano doesn't bother to care about.

Setale's first doubt was solved at this point.

Next.

Without her asking, Rhode took out another emblem that Candice gave her when he left Aru Village.

This is an aqua blue emblem, and the pattern on it is exactly the same as the guardian shield passed down from generation to generation in Aru Village.

"This is?"

Setale is a smart person, she could tell what this emblem was at a glance, and couldn't help but wonder: "Are you the guardian of Aru Village!?"

"Do not."

Rhodes put away his emblem, shook his finger and said, "In Aru Village, they usually call me the village guard."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 109 People who don’t believe in gods, but believe in chance

The village guard.

This was the title given to Rhodes by Uncle Amp and Candice after several discussions.

In fact, when I first learned about this name.

Rhodes instinctively wanted to resist.

Without him.

In his previous life, there was also the term "village guardian".

It's just that the village guardians in the previous life usually refer to those intellectually disabled people in the village. Such people are usually considered by the villagers to prevent disasters and solve problems for the village and protect the peace of the village. That's why they end up like this. A stupid ending.

Rhodes believed that he was not a fool, nor was he a confused lunatic like a madman, nor was he the kind of person who sacrificed himself to protect Aru Village.

Naturally, he was reluctant to give him such a name.

However, there is no such thing as the villagers saying in Teyvat Continent.

In Candice and Uncle Amp's words, they felt that Rhodes' contribution to the village was so great that he was almost the same as a guardian, so they thought of calling him a name similar to a guardian.

As for the emblem in his hand.

This is the Red King's emblem passed down from generation to generation by the guardians of Aru Village, symbolizing the identity of the descendants recognized by the Red King.

Hold this emblem.

This means that as long as you are an enemy of Rhodes in the desert, you are an enemy of Aru Village and the ethnic group of the Red King's descendants.

This is not only a status symbol, but also a powerful talisman.

After hearing these words.

Setare was completely confused.

She really couldn't imagine what Rhode had done to make Aru Village willing to make such an oath, and even be willing to give the most important emblem of the village to Rhode.

"As for the Sheng Lun Sect, in addition to the self-taught book knowledge, I also have a scholar who was exiled to Aru Village to teach me."

"Those things in your hands."

"That's what my teacher and I studied together."

Just listen to Rhodes continue: "As for my knowledge in Su Lun Sect."

talking.

He shook the emblem on his hand: "Because I listened to the teachings of the Red King, I can have such knowledge in the Su Lun Sect."

As soon as these words came out.

Nasida, who had been listening silently, hurriedly said: "Hey, don't mention the Red King now!"

She told Rhodes before.

The conflict between the followers of the Red King and the followers of the Grass God is serious.

If you rashly expose the identity of the Red King's divine envoy, this identity will bring you a lot of unnecessary trouble in Sumeru City, especially in the Order Academy, the place closest to the Grass God.

In this regard.

Rhodes had his own reasons.

"I didn't say that I was the Red King's envoy. What I said was that I had listened to the Red King's teachings."

"Didn't you say that too?"

"Setale feels guilty about the desert in her heart."

"If I don't take advantage of the moment when she is touched by what I have achieved in the desert, it will be difficult to tell her about the Red King when she calms down later."

"and."

"Setare is not a person who believes in gods."

"For her, whether the Red King can still deliver oracles to his people will not make her give up her faith and return to the desert camp out of guilt."

"What I am doing now is just to plant a nail in her heart to let her know that the Red King is still there, so that when we need to use her in the future, we can better convince her."

Setare's performance also confirmed Rhodes' statement.

When she first heard the name Red King, she was stunned for a moment.

In the blink of an eye.
