A few days later.
"Everyone's here."
Jiang Mu, who arrived late, looked at the group and smiled somewhat awkwardly.
This scene seems so familiar...
"You're here, let's begin."
Diluc nodded to Jiang Mu, looked at everyone, and said.
"The Abyss Order... These monsters are enemies of humanity, and information about them is rarely seen in the underground intelligence network."
"Ah?" Paimon said with a look of regret, "Even Lord Diluc..."
"Wait, Lord Diluc hasn't finished speaking yet." Ying quickly stopped Paimon and smiled apologetically at Diluc.
"It's alright."
Diluc shook his head and continued.
"But despite the trouble, I still managed to find some clues."
"You've already found a lead? No wonder you're so well-informed, Lord Diluc."
Wendy praised.
"Oh……"
Diluc smiled slightly.
"Because if we don't find out soon, all the wine in my Dawn Winery will be drunk up by some good-for-nothing bard."
"Uh..." Jiang Mu stared at Wendy in shock. Although he knew this guy liked to drink, he never expected him to be such a heavy drinker...
"Hehe~"
Wendy continued to play dumb.
“However, I never expected that Lord Barbatos, the Wind God, would actually use the power of an ordinary person…” Paimon said in surprise.
"hehe……"
Next, Wendy explained the Seven Gods in detail.
“Ahem…” Wendy concluded.
"In short, as you can see, I haven't been back to Mondstadt for so long, so right now, without a doubt, I am the weakest of the Seven Gods!"
"Truly worthy of being the god of the city of freedom..." Ying exclaimed.
"Hehe, you flatter me..." Wendy said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Oh……"
Upon seeing this scene, Diluc surprisingly revealed a smile.
"Is it a good thing or a bad thing that we have such a Wind God?"
"senior……"
Jean was somewhat lost in thought as she looked at Diluc's smile...
"Cough cough..."
Noticing Jean's expression, Diluc said somewhat awkwardly.
"Let's put that topic aside for now and talk about the common enemy of all mankind."
Upon hearing that it was serious, even Paimon's expression turned serious.
"The traces of the Abyss Mage discovered this time are near the Dawn Winery," Diluc said solemnly.
"Let's go then."
Ying immediately began to check her weapons.
"Hmm!" xn
………………
Compared to the top combatants of Mondstadt, this little abyss mage is naturally no match.
"etc!"
After Luminous picked up the materials dropped by the Abyss Mage, Venti suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
Upon hearing this, the group of people who were about to leave quickly turned around and looked at Wendy.
“Hmm…” Wendy examined the ground carefully and spoke slowly.
"After the Abyss Mage was defeated, some kind of energy was released..."
As Wendy spoke, she looked at everyone and found that everyone except Ying looked puzzled.
"Is there...some strange energy here?" Jiang Mu asked, puzzled.
"Hehe..." Wendy smiled slightly, but inwardly she was cursing.
"You're definitely faking it!"
At this moment, Jiang Mu's heart was filled with...
"As long as I don't show off my special qualities, these troubles are none of my business. I'm so smart!"
"Traveler, can you tell?"
Wendy looked at Ying again.
"Um."
Upon hearing this, Ying nodded seriously. It was a ball of energy that was almost purple, and it looked... a bit eerie...
“His original purpose seems to have been to sever my connection with Dvalin,” Wendy said suddenly after thinking for a while.
"Traveler, do you know about the 'Wind Dragon Ruins'?"
"have no idea."
Ying shook her head slightly.
Upon hearing this, Qin stepped forward to explain.
"This Wind Dragon Ruins..."
………………
After Jean finished speaking, Wendy continued.
"Like the storms that previously sealed off Mondstadt, the entrance to the ruins also has a special barrier."
“But now.” As she said this, Wendy’s face lit up with barely concealed excitement.
"From the energy dissipated by the Abyss Mage, I can read the patterns that weave magic."
"Although that rhythm is even worse than the Hilichurl chorus, but..."
"What a novel metaphor..." Jiang Mu remarked, then continued.
"Let's get straight to the result."
“What an impatient man…” Wendy shook her head in dissatisfaction and said seriously.
"In short, we can now break through this storm barrier and reach the interior of the Wind Dragon Ruins!"
"So... we're going to have to face the Wind Dragon head-on, right?" Diluc asked, arms crossed.
"I don't really care, but Qin is the one who most wants to avoid war..."
“No need, senior,” Qin said earnestly. “If it really comes to that, I will become a knight charging ahead…”
"Hey, hey, hey, the situation isn't that bad..."
Wendy waved her hand with a wry smile.
"Although the Sky Harp wasn't destroyed, it's not our real trump card. Our real trump card..."
As she spoke, Wendy gave Jiang Mu a malicious look.
"It's this traveler...and my friend!"
"Why am I being dragged into this again!" Jiang Mu was on the verge of tears.
"As far as I know, Jiang Mu, you should be able to use more than one elemental force, right..."
Qin looked at Jiang Mu and said earnestly.
“That’s right!” Paimon exclaimed as if suddenly realizing something. “When he confronted Dvalin that day, besides the wind elemental power, Jiang Mu seemed to have also used the fire elemental power, right?”
Now, Jiang Mu has become the target of everyone's criticism.
"Wendy!" Jiang Mu gritted his teeth and said.
"Don't let me catch you doing anything wrong, or I'll have that old man have a good talk with you about life and ideals..."
"Hey, it can't be that bad!"
Wendy, who was chuckling to herself, was stunned when she heard this.
Jiang Mu: (￣ー￣〃)
Wendy: (⊙︿⊙)
"Alright, stop fooling around..." Just as the two were staring at each other, Ying walked over, took Jiang Mu's hand, and said with a hint of pleading in her voice.
"Please help us, okay?"
Seemingly unable to bear Ying's intense gaze any longer, Jiang Mu finally nodded helplessly.
"middle!"
Upon hearing this, Ying's face lit up with joy, but when she realized that she was holding Jiang Mu's hand, she blushed deeply and quickly let go of Jiang Mu's hand.
And to the side...
"Yay!" Paimon exclaimed, doing a somersault in the air.
"Humans also have their own inherent qualities," Diluc said with a faint smile.
"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm not human?"
Jiang Mu pointed to himself and asked in confusion.
Diluc: ( °◇ °)
Diluc was stunned.
"Pfft!—"
Ying and Qin, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"So……"
Upon seeing this scene, Wendy, a bard, couldn't help but pick up her harp and gently pluck the strings.
"The epic saga has finally entered its final battle!"
