Seeing Lu Ying rush forward, Wendy felt a sense of foreboding and kept a watchful eye on any unusual movements around her. Sure enough, a very tall and strong soldier rushed out from an inconspicuous corner. His muscles were so impressive that even a bodybuilding champion would be ashamed of them. His strength was so great that Lu Ying was thrown back.
After being thrown back, Lu Ying calmed down. She blushed a little, thinking that Wendy was right beside her and she had embarrassed herself. After all, she believed Wendy must have noticed the ambush nearby, but she had recklessly rushed forward without analyzing the situation. Thinking of this, her resentment towards the mayor deepened.
"Oh dear, Holy Maiden, acting rashly is not a good choice. As the Holy Maiden of the Mayari Forest, how can you be so reckless?" The mayor stood behind the soldiers, a smile on his face.
"Lord Wendy, what should we do?" Lu Ying retreated to Wendy's side and discussed in hushed tones. Wendy looked at the mayor and suddenly thought of the "rich man" from the Fatui.
Both are two-faced, cunning, and manipulative people; Wendy doesn't really like dealing with them.
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to give you a warning. If you continue to harass the Mayari Forest, I won’t let you off easily,” Wendy said.
"Mr. Wendy, are you already planning to leave? This isn't a place where you can come and go as you please." The mayor opened his eyes slightly, and Wendy realized that he and Lu Ying had been surrounded by soldiers who had suddenly appeared.
"Mr. Wendy must have heard about the God-Sealing Plan." The mayor approached with a smile. Wendy's eyes turned cold as he asked, "Did you arrange all of this?" "No, no, no, I can't say arrange it. It's just the will of Heaven." The mayor's smile remained, but now seemed tinged with sarcasm. "After all, the God-Sealing Plan sounds so grand. If it succeeds, everyone will be remembered for eternity. Besides, humans always want to be above gods. If we successfully seal you away or kill you, wouldn't that prove that humans are greater than gods? The world is man-made, not created by gods." The mayor's words grew increasingly frantic.
"So, separating me from Xiao was also your doing?" Wendy suddenly thought of Xiao in the Psionic Lands and felt a surge of anxiety. But the mayor asked in confusion, "What Xiao?" Wendy remained silent.
"Speak up! Why aren't you saying anything?" The mayor knew something was wrong when someone who had never appeared before suddenly appeared outside of the plan. If this Xiao was powerful, it would not only cause problems with the plan, but it might also lead to Wendy destroying the plan. Moreover, just hearing the name Xiao made the mayor feel a chill down his spine.
So this Xiao is definitely not a good guy; he might be even crazier and more insane than Wendy.
No unexpected items should be added to the plan!
"Mr. Wendy, if you don't speak, then you and this madwoman will die here." The mayor seemed full of confidence. The soldiers here were all wearing the most advanced technology equipment; they could destroy Wendy and Lu Ying in a single breath. Although Wendy was unlikely to die directly, Lu Ying certainly would!
Furthermore, the mayor even changed his address for Lu Ying from "saint" to "madwoman," which shows that the mayor didn't have any good intentions either.
Wendy didn't care much. If he was sealed away, Mondstadt would have to be handed over to the old man. But being sealed away meant he wouldn't have the freedom to drink or run freely anymore. He wasn't too worried about Xiao, but... Wendy glanced at Lu Ying beside him and noticed her solemn expression and slightly trembling hands. Wendy closed his eyes, and wind elemental power slowly condensed, forming a huge black hole in front of him. Eventually, it appeared in Wendy's hand and transformed into a harp.
Seeing Wendy's actions, the mayor instinctively felt something was wrong and immediately ordered his soldiers to attack. However, Lu Ying seemed to sense something and turned to look at Wendy, only to find a happy expression on Wendy's face. It turned out that the wind had unknowingly formed a tight shield, trapping the two of them inside. The soldiers' attacks were deflected, and the soldiers were either killed or wounded, creating a chaotic scene.
The mayor himself stayed far away, watching Wendy play the High Heavens Song. The wind rose higher and higher with the boy's clear singing, forming a huge tornado that swept everything around it into the sky. Screams and the sound of limbs breaking echoed continuously. The mayor's face showed horror, and in addition to fear, there was also a sigh in his heart.
"So, gods can stir up storms with just a wave of their hand." That's what the mayor thought before he was swept up in the tornado.
The dark clouds dissipated, the wind gradually subsided, and Wendy's High Heaven Song came to an end. This time, the melody was noticeably faster, and red marks appeared on Wendy's fair hands. A burning pain came from them, but Wendy didn't seem to care much. However, Miss Lu Ying, who was standing next to her, seemed to be stunned.
"Are you alright, Miss Lu Ying?" Wendy walked up to Lu Ying and waved her hand, but Lu Ying didn't react for a long time.
The live stream chat was completely empty; it took a long time before someone finally typed a question mark.
This question mark was no ordinary question mark; it ignited the emotions of everyone in the live stream.
"Ahhhh, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have definitely thought it was a movie special effect!"
"As expected of my wife! She's amazing! Wendy, Wendy, forever my goddess!"
"I will always be the most faithful believer of God!"
"As expected of my wife! My wife is the most amazing!"
"But does Wendy's hand hurt right now? Blow on it for Mommy."
"Wow, even the mom fans are showing up?"
"We've always had mom fans."
"No male mothers! No male mothers!"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I lost my composure." Lu Ying finally came to her senses and quickly apologized.
"It is regrettable that all the contestants from the Boundless Town on Planet Atlantis have perished, and the Boundless Town has been punished with the destruction of its nation."
"Unfortunately, planet Atlantis..."
"I'm sorry..."
The national fortune was broadcast three times before it stopped, and this news served as a wake-up call for everyone.
"No way, another country has been destroyed. Could this be the work of some god again?"
"Is this the power of the gods? To destroy a country with a mere flick of their wrist."
Many weak nations that participated in the Investiture of the Gods project began to back down, but they knew that if they chose to withdraw, they too would be destroyed.
"Alright, I should go back and have a drink now. Let's say goodbye." Wendy's words faded away with the wind, along with his playful figure.
As soon as Wendy returned to the cave, she couldn't wait to take out her cider and drink it down. Just as she was about to slack off, she suddenly heard a huge explosion and could vaguely feel the shockwave. Wendy quickly ran out to see what was happening and found a familiar figure locked in a stalemate with a giant!
