"This is what happened...a guy who called himself Kevin Kaslana provided information that could solve the monster in Dragon's Back Snow Mountain."
The Knight of the West Wind, who had a serious and upright appearance before, now acted respectfully like a dog licker, in a tavern that was not open during the day.
What kind of person with powerful hands and eyes can make a West Wind Knight behave in such a lowly manner?
Diluc Legenfender.
This person is a person that all chambers of commerce in Mondstadt must look up to. He is the most famous among the wealthy merchants of Mondstadt.
This person controls half of the liquor industry in Mondstadt. Such a huge business has made Mondstadt people who love drinking fall into this. This does not include the development of his other industries.
In a sense, Diluc can be called the uncrowned king of Mondstadt.
Diluc lowered his eyes in an incomprehensible manner, supporting his chin with his hand, but his expression looked bored.
His skin is as white as jade, his fire-like red hair looks particularly noble, and his cold red eyes give people a sense of oppression.
I saw Diluc tugging at his black gold dress and nodding with satisfaction towards the bartender next to him. The bartender also took out a heavy bag from the bar with neat hands and feet.
You can even clearly hear the crisp sound of Namora's collision from the shaking of the bag.
Seeing this, the knight couldn't help but swallow his saliva. At this time, he seemed particularly nervous and excited.
The bartender casually threw the money bag in his hand as if giving alms, and the knight immediately took it in his hand and thanked Diluc.
"Thank you, Master Diluc! Thank you, Master Diluc!"
He held the money bag with both hands and felt the weight. Sure enough, it was still the same as last time, fifty thousand molara, which was worth three or four months of his wages!
And this was not the first time he had taken a purse like this.
Diluc, who was wearing special black gloves, waved his hand and motioned for him to retreat.
The knight also nodded and bowed and left the tavern.
Diluc thought for a while without saying a word, and then said to the bartender next to him: "Charles, how is the situation of the Knights of the West Wind now?"
Charles, the bartender with a stubble on his face, thought about it and crossed his arms and said: "Well... as far as I know it's not very good. The situation is very stressful. The foreign population in Mondstadt is increasing. For the West Wind Knight The manpower pressure on the regiment is very high.”
Charles walked to the window, and after double-checking to ensure that no one was eavesdropping, he walked to Diluc, who had his legs crossed, and expressed his opinion.
"According to the intelligence, even the Spray Knight was defeated by that monster. Now they are seriously short of manpower... If they want to deal with that monster, they have to mobilize the main personnel, but in that case, Mondstadt City will be empty inside, and everyone will be fooled. This guy won't let go of such a good opportunity.
"If that monster is allowed to run rampant, it will undoubtedly declare the incompetence of the Knights of the West Wind. The fools can also use this to make a big fuss. If it affects the people's hearts, it will have a great impact on the situation. Now they should be in a dilemma. .”
Indeed, the pressure faced by the Knights of the West Wind is huge, because Falga, the leader of the Knights of the West Wind, led two-thirds of the knights on the expedition.
As a result, the current Knights are facing unprecedented challenges. The shortage of manpower must not take care of the areas, and that is the villages in remote areas.
With the expansion of monsters, the Knights of the West Wind can only guarantee the safety of Mondstadt City. Many places are unable to send manpower to exterminate monsters, which leads to population migration. More and more people are pouring into Mondstadt City for safety.
It also led to the internal security of Mondstadt, which required more personnel. This was a vicious cycle.
Insufficient personnel lead to population migration, which leads to an increase in security personnel, and the number of refugees with limited employment opportunities will also increase. In addition, the number of villages will decrease, and the food harvest will also decrease.
In addition, the current Knights of the West Wind are also facing external pressure from the Fools of the Solstice Kingdom’s diplomatic mission. At this time, there are also monsters that the people are keeping a close eye on!
I could have settled everything and waited until the situation stabilized before dealing with it.
Unexpectedly, the Adventurers Association issued an unlimited commission, and the commission was to exterminate the strange monsters in the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain! As a result, everyone in Mondstadt became aware of this situation, and the amount of the commission soared from 200,000 moras to 1 million moras, and voices questioning the ability of the Knights of the West Wind began to grow louder.
Diluc stood up and spoke slowly: "Then this is really not an optimistic situation. The strength of the Knight of the Waves, Yora Lawrence, is not inferior to mine. The strength of the monsters that even she cannot deal with cannot be underestimated... The strength of the Knights cannot be underestimated..." The situation is ugly.”
"But that guy named Kevin... it's impossible not to know the current embarrassing situation of the Knights. If he helps the Knights tide over the difficulties now, he will undoubtedly gain the most difficult favor in Mondstadt."
"But the premise is that he is really capable of solving it, rather than hoping that the Knights can take advantage of it at this point in time... Anyway, keep an eye on him... I want to know his every move."
"Yes, Master Diluc, I will make arrangements now."
Diluc raised his eyes and reminded: "Remember, find a few people who are smart and do not let the 'security guards' and Kevin discover our secret actions. In this case, Kevin Kaslana's purpose does not threaten Meng. Before you learn virtue, there is no need to have a bad relationship with this courageous person."
…
At this time, Bai Zhe had just returned to the brothel, and he saw Rosevia at the gate of the brothel.
Rosevia was seen sitting on the sofa a little restless, but when she saw a familiar person appear at the door, her restless heart also settled.
"You...are back, um..."
Rosevia was at a loss for words. She didn't know how to face the man in front of her. The complicated emotions in her heart made her think a lot.
I have so many thoughts and worries, but it’s hard to speak when we meet.
Rosevia pursed her pink lips and clasped her jade hands, her green eyes glancing at Bai Zhe from time to time.
What is the relationship between us, guest? acquaintance? friend?
I don't even know your name, but in the past half month, my heart has been tied to you. I thought I had accepted this unbearable fate, but you seemed to come to me just like Vanessa came to Mondstadt.
Hey... What on earth am I fantasizing about? I actually have fantasies about this man. What's wrong with me...
…
Looking at the dazed Rosevia in front of him, Bai Zhe smiled meaningfully and caressed her cheek and said, "Sure enough, you have been on vacation for too long, and you dare to be so dazed in front of me. You are really brave."
After regaining consciousness, Rosevia blinked her eyes, turned her head, took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and looked like she was keeping strangers away.
Seeing the "cold"-looking Rosevia with a cold face, Bai Zhe was used to walking into the store directly. Aunt Mei also greeted the guests with a smile and invited several women to drink with Bai Zhe.
Rosevia sat on the edge and watched. She didn't need to do anything, because in the end the man would still walk into her room, not because of anything else but her face.
