The unknown is often the most terrifying thing.

Farga didn't have to wait too long. That afternoon, Lisa placed the information about Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain on the Grand Commander's desk.

After seeing it, Farga felt a little relieved.

According to records, Durin, the dragon who almost destroyed Mondstadt five hundred years ago, died in the snowy mountains.

Afterwards, adventurers here began to collect a material called 'Scarlet Chalcedony'.

Falga felt that the power that combined the stone statue powder should come from the dead Durin.

The dragon was very powerful, but it was not as powerful as the real demon.

As long as it is not a demon, Falga is confident that he can lead a group of titled knights to stop it outside Mondstadt!

148 Dark Zaki

Obviously, the commander-in-chief overestimated himself and underestimated the existence born from the combination of the power of the giant and the power of the dragon.

Less than half a day after Qin and Diluk left, the sky south of the snow-capped mountains was dyed by an extremely dazzling beam of light.

The entire light column is pitch black. If you look closely, you can vaguely see seven symbol-like markings on the surface of the light column.

“aaaeeeehhhhh!!!!!”

The shrill roar echoed in the ears of every Mond citizen.

Some people with weaker constitutions even fell into a coma.

The three sparkling wines

"That's... the Giant of Light?!"

The knights stationed on the city wall cried out in surprise.

Everyone looked in that direction, and then they saw a gigantic human figure that appeared out of nowhere in the sky above Mond City. It was completely black, with blood-red patterns tattooed on its body.

——Dark Zagi!

The moment they saw that figure, a name involuntarily emerged in everyone's mind.

The giant, looking down at Mondstadt, unlike Nexter and Nexus, simply sneered coldly.

"Huhuhuhu~"

Not to mention the apprentice knights and ordinary knights, even many titled knights could not help but feel their hair stand on end after hearing this voice.

Their instincts as living creatures were constantly warning them to turn around and run away immediately! Right now!

Palladium One Tung Forest Umbrella Bar

Many knights did so out of fear.

Even some of the Mond residents who had been hiding in the basement unconsciously ran out of the building at this moment due to the influence of some force.

then……

In a flash of red-black light, everyone, including the entire city of Mond, disappeared on the spot.

"here it is……"

Falga was the first to react and found that he and everyone else were pulled into the Dark Zaki's alien space.

It was not until this time that he finally confirmed that he and the Knights might really be no match for the giant.

but……

It's too late.

Dark Zagi was clearly intelligent and quite cunning; He did not choose to fall to the ground, but remained suspended in mid-air.

Then, he raised his hands, crossed his forearms, and made the 'L' sign that was very familiar to the people of Mondstadt.

The next moment, countless elements were absorbed by it, and after a reaction that the Knights could not understand, it turned into a pitch-black darkness that could even swallow light.

"!!!"

Seeing this scene, Farga dared not hesitate.

"Quick, help me stop Him!"

As he spoke, he had already transformed into an agito, gathering elemental power while releasing defensive moves.

After hearing this, the other titled knights also reacted suddenly.

Now is not the time to slack off. If there is even the slightest mistake, not only the ordinary people of Mond, but also they themselves will have no chance of survival!

There are not many titled knights in the Order, less than a hundred.

Not every one of these knights possesses the combat power of a demon's followers.

Even so, they successfully blocked Dark Zagi's first wave of light attacks.

But the price was that two-thirds of them lost their transformation and collapsed to the ground.

"Did you block it?"

"Yes, I should."

Although they said this, everyone's face showed despair.

Because, the Dark Zaki in the sky didn't care about the blocked first wave of attacks at all. It just made a slight adjustment and then shot out the second wave of light.

Farga gritted his teeth.

Although he was severely exhausted, he was not exhausted.

There are eight other titled knights like him.

These people know in their hearts that their efforts are in vain.

But still not going to give up.

Either out of a knight's perseverance or out of a desire for life.

"Everyone, try harder!"

Falga took the lead, maintaining the agito transformation, and leaped straight up, kicking towards the light against gravity.

The other knights looked at each other with hope in their eyes and did the same thing.

Some surprises...

With just these few people, they actually blocked Dark Zagi's second attack.

but……

Watching the other party gather elemental power for the third time, even the most cheerful person would feel a trace of despair in his heart at this moment.

“Don’t give up yet!”

Falga shouted, having already canceled his transformation, and relying solely on his willpower, he jumped up again and rushed towards the attack.

Without the agito armor and with his physical strength exhausted, Falga was actually ready to die.

But the next moment...

A huge figure suddenly appeared and grabbed it directly in his hand.

"Giant of Light?"

"Nexus?!"

"And there are two of them?!"

The members of the Knights were completely stunned. In their field of vision, first two beams of light appeared out of thin air, and then, only one second later, the two beams of light turned into two giants of light.

Judging from its appearance, it is 70% similar to Nexus that appeared before.

One of the Nexus - for the sake of convenience, let's call him No. 1 - put the Falga in his hand back to the ground.

The other one, No. 2, didn't even look at the knights behind him. He quickly charged up his strength and blocked Dark Zagi's light attack for a moment before it landed.

The next moment, No. 1 also joined the battle.

Judging from the combat power of these two Nexus, it seems that they are no match for Dark Zagi.

But no matter what, they and Dark Zagi are both at the same demon level.

In a two-on-one situation, it was easy to hold back the enemy and prevent them from attacking Mondstadt.

"Giant, there are actually several of them?"

Perhaps it is because they are temporarily safe, a knight said subconsciously.

Farga's eyes were vague. He didn't realize this until today.

As for the two giants of light who helped Mond...

— Is it Klips and Hans?

——Or, other chosen ones whose identities have never been revealed?

Falga admitted that he felt envy and jealousy towards the owner of the transformation device.

Why, that person, isn’t me?

Apparently, Farga was not the only one who thought so.

Among the knights present, only Lisa, who was exhausted, looked indifferent because she had obtained a transformation device.

As for others, it can only be said that many dark thoughts were completely out of their control at this moment.

But should we say that the Titled Knight is worthy of being a Titled Knight?

Even if the strength is exhausted, the faith in the heart can turn into a flame that illuminates the darkness.

"No! How could I have such an emotion?"

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm not the jealous type."

"Get lost, I'm envious, but I'll get what I want myself!"

……

In a short moment, only a few seconds at most, the titled knights awakened from the darkness in their hearts.

However, compared to the larger number of ordinary knights, they are ultimately a minority.

149 Tragedy is not the end

"Wake up! Don't be swallowed by the darkness in your heart!"

As the Grand Commander, Falga couldn't help but shout this.

Unfortunately, his words at this moment were like a stone sinking into the sea.

The Titled Knight needed no reminder, and the rest of the people couldn't hear his words at all.

In fact, it’s not just the members of the Knights Templar.

At this moment, all the people of Mond hiding in basements and air-raid shelters were affected by the extra-dimensional field released by Dark Zagi without exception.

Anger, jealousy, laziness, gluttony, greed, bliss, arrogance...

For the first time, the seven original sins that humans are born with appeared so clearly in the history of Mondstadt and even Teyvat.

A usually gentle and polite person starts to speak foul language.

People who used to be diligent and hardworking now just want to lie down and do nothing.

The faithful husband fantasizes about other women.

The weak envy the strength of the strong.

……

Mond, it's a mess.

In the sky, the battle between Dark Zagi and two Nexus continued.

On the ground, people were laughing wildly, being violent, destroying... revealing all the evil thoughts that they usually kept hidden.

To use a line from Dream of the Red Chamber, if a country this big were to be invaded by another country, it would not be able to be destroyed all at once. It would first have to commit suicide from within before it would be completely defeated.
