Chapter 702: A True Knight
In a sense, the people of Mondstadt are very happy.
At least that's what some drunkards think. In some places, only high-quality drinks that rich people can afford, but gifts from angels provide unlimited amounts.
The most important thing is that the price is also very affordable, so affordable that people can’t help but want to settle in Mondstadt.
Therefore, the lifelong dream of many alcoholics is to go to Mondstadt and then go to Angel's Gift to drink to their heart's content all night long.
But in the solstice...many people don't have this idea.
They felt that this kind of wine was not worthy of the title of wine at all. It was just a drink with some alcohol. They drank it before they could even taste it.
Today, Mr. Diluc, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared at the Angel's gift counter for the first time. After greeting the enthusiastic guests, he brought some drinks and snacks and went upstairs.
Although the servants have taken care of it, the attic is really not a good place.
In the attic filled with all kinds of miscellaneous items, a table was placed near the window. The sun just could shine in, which provided a simple light source.
At this time, the people around the table were all familiar people.
The acting leader of the Knights of the West Wind——Qin.
Librarian of the Knights of the West Wind——Lisa.
Cavalry Captain of the Knights of the West Wind——Kaia.
And... Diluc, the former cavalry captain who had just resigned from the Knights of the West Wind, had just walked up to the attic.
The four people gathered here at the moment can be said to be the think tank of the Knights. Every time something similar happens, they will gather here to discuss countermeasures.
Qin, who was sitting in front of the wooden table, was looking at the portrait in his hand attentively.
It was drawn by Diluc in private. Although it is not as detailed as the photo machine, it is still possible to be picky in this case.
Qin looked at the painting, and Lisa lay lazily on the table looking at Qin, seeming to be thinking about something.
Everyone present was silent.
The person who finally broke the peaceful atmosphere was Kaia who discovered that what Diluc served was actually a drink.
"I said, I have said it before, do we have to discuss things in a place like this? This matter has nothing to do with Bai Luo, can't it be done in the office as well?"
Casually placing the grape juice in his hand on the table, Kaia's eyes had drifted to the wine barrels around the attic.
Unlike the drinks below, the drinks here are all high-end.
But as Kaia said, they would choose to discuss matters in this kind of place before, mainly because Bailuo's matter involved too many things, and it was not convenient for the Knights and people in Mondstadt to know, otherwise it would cause unnecessary trouble.
of panic.
As for this man named Pendragon, if he didn't lie, it would be a matter of time before the Knights came into contact with him. There was no need to avoid the Knights.
There is no way to avoid it.
"You know, at least on the surface, I am the person who gives the Knights the biggest headache. If I appear there, many people will be unhappy. Besides... there are also many people I don't want to see there.
"
Diluc crossed his arms on his chest and said.
But when he talked about the person he didn't want to see, his ruby-like eyes were fixed on Kaia.
"This at least proves that Pendragon is not very familiar with the situation in Mondstadt. He came to you entirely because of the reputation of Mondstadt Winery. He thought you had a way to get in touch with the Knights, but he didn't know
Your relationship with the Knights is actually not very harmonious."
After ignoring Diluc's gaze, Kaia began to analyze it properly.
It's just that his analysis was purely to deal with Diluc, because several people present had long been aware of this matter.
"Speaking of which, have you noticed that this man named Pendragon looks very similar to Qin."
While the Diluc brothers were bickering, Lisa, who had been lying on the table looking at Qin, spoke up.
She would keep staring at him because she had a similar feeling after seeing the painting.
Although it is just a painting, the artist's skills are very good, and the other person's expression, momentum and the temperament in his eyebrows can be said to be vivid.
The way he was sitting upright could be said to be modeled after Qin who was sitting at the table looking at the painting. He was almost like a teenage version of Qin.
"Actually there is a difference."
Unlike the three people who had only seen the portrait, Diluc met the other party in person, so he also knew many details that Kaia and the others did not know.
Indeed, he and Qin have certain similarities in terms of hair color and appearance, and even the wind surrounding them is completely consistent with Qin's elemental attributes.
Just comparing with Qin...
To put it bluntly, if Qin is a kindergarten teacher whose fangs have not yet grown, then the opponent is a lion galloping on the battlefield.
Even though he looks a bit petite in terms of body shape, Qin doesn't have that sense of oppression at all.
The last time he had this feeling was when he joined the Knights of the West Wind at the age of fourteen and met Falga, the grand leader of the Knights of the West Wind, for the first time.
He had a hunch that this man named Pendragon should be a person who could create miracles just like Grand Commander Falga.
"So is this person worth the risk of contacting us?"
Putting the portrait back on the table, Qin said aloud.
As the acting leader of the Knights of the West Wind, she cannot make certain decisions on the spur of the moment. She has to consider issues from multiple aspects.
After the events of the Demon Dragon Usa, Bai Luo, and the Wind Demon Dragon, Mond finally ushered in the long-lost peace, and she did not want the city to fall into crisis again.
Pendragon.
Are they here with friendly intentions, or do they have other motives?
She didn't dare to make a rash decision before she was sure of the other party's details.
"My personal suggestion is to get in touch."
Unlike the three members of the Knights, Diluc kept his arms folded and hid in a blind spot where the sun could not reach him from beginning to end.
In the darkness, he looked at Qin with ruby-like eyes and gave his own suggestions.
"Tell me why."
Diluc was the only person who had met Pendragon, so Qin still valued his opinions.
"It's a bit incredible to say that when talking to him, I felt like I was communicating with an elder of the Knights. To put it simply... He has something that many people in the Knights don't have.
Chivalry, even..."
Having said this, Diluc did not continue speaking, but looked at Qin.
For some reasons, he had some friendship with the Gunnhild family and knew the situation of this family.
But it is no exaggeration to say that in terms of knights, this Pendragon feels far better than the Gunnhild family.
If he were to be evaluated, he would be the best knight among knights.
