Chapter 431 The Dragon Breaks into the City
Chapter 431 The Dragon Breaks into the City
A faint light rose in the east. It was only half an hour away from morning. Ye Li slowly opened his eyes. A ray of golden light flashed and then disappeared.
He let out a breath, and Ye Li's gray-blue pupils were as bright as stars, as if he was leaping with joy about something worth being happy about.
"At present, I only need to refine the last few magic weapons to pass the thunder tribulation of the Divine Transformation Realm. I have completed all the basic cultivations of the Nascent Soul Realm. Everything is already perfect and cannot be further perfected."
The joy in his eyes quickly disappeared, and Ye Li's eyes became serious and sharp involuntarily, and he murmured in his heart:
"But don't be careless. Even if you are 100% sure, you can't let your guard down. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, you will be doomed. Just be happy in your heart and keep a calm mind."
Ye Li quickly adjusted his mood and attitude, turned his head to look at the sun that had just risen outside the window, and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Feeling the deserted but populated environment outside the window, Ye Li went to the bathroom in a happy mood and brushed his teeth and washed his face.
After tidying up his clothes, Ye Li came to the door and opened it. What caught his eye was a floating Paimeng, who looked dizzy because he was close to the door panel.
"My head hurts. I should have known not to get so close to the door."
"Are you okay, Paimon?"
Ye Li showed some concern, and Paimeng also reacted after hearing the voice, and quickly said with a smile:
"Um... Ye Li, Kong was asking about my sister in the city yesterday and was very tired. I'm afraid he will sleep until the afternoon today. Although I'm not that tired, I still have to eat breakfast, so..."
Looking at Paimeng with a shy smile and a pitiful look, Ye Li felt helpless, and he also knew Paimeng's purpose in his heart.
Simply put, he just wanted to get breakfast and lunch, but Ye Li was still a little confused.
Judging from Kong’s performance yesterday, he didn’t look very tired.
But Ye Li did not express his doubts. Maybe Kong just wanted to sleep in, so he left Paimon to him to take care of for a while.
Without any hesitation or delay, Ye Li took the lead and left the hotel with the smiling Paimon and went straight to the Deer Hunter Restaurant where they had eaten last night.
When he arrived at the destination, Ye Li unexpectedly discovered that a cat was following a wheat-skinned cavalry captain wearing a black eye mask with a reluctant look on his face.
At this moment, because of the failure of the bet, Diona was taken to the Deerslayer Restaurant by a drunk cavalry captain who loved drinking. Diona, who was preparing to make wine, saw at a glance a good partner who had destroyed Mond Wine Industry with him. Her eyes suddenly lit up and her tail wagged upwards.
Ye Li had no choice but to bring Paimon, who looked confused, to Kaia's side and said with a smile:
"Long time no see, Captain Kaia. Today you went to Diona to make wine. She looked very reluctant. Did you bully her?"
"Long time no see, Mr. Ye Li, you can't say that. I just had a small fight with little Dionna, and she admitted defeat before the wine was brewed."
When Kaeya saw Ye Li, a newcomer from Liyue, he smiled awkwardly and explained the matter of winemaking. Diona snorted and turned her head away from Kaeya, the liar.
When Paimon heard this, he temporarily put aside his hungry stomach and flew to Diona who was shaking the wine bottle with both hands with a curious look on his face.
Diona, who had been snorting coldly, was also startled when she saw Paimon flying over, but she held the bottle of wine steadily and did not spill it.
Diona subconsciously hid behind Ye Li, and Paimon also reacted and looked at the three of them with some embarrassment.
Helplessly, Ye Li had to introduce Paimon, and also introduced a certain Kong who was sleeping in the hotel, to avoid any misunderstandings when they met.
"I see. Are you a new traveler? It looks like Mondstadt is about to face a new storm."
"I don't care about the storm or not. Your wine is ready. Go ahead."
Diona was not in the mood to talk to the drunkard. After brewing the wine, she immediately threw the bottle to Kaeya, and dragged Ye Moumou, who had a wry smile on his face, and the curious Paimon to the Cat's Tail Tavern.
Looking at the three people leaving, Kaia's originally warm smile faded. He looked seriously at the sky which had already changed a little, holding a large bottle of wine, and walked towards the angel's gift.
……
Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, at the campsite on the edge.
Albedo took the paper that was transmitted by a special spell, looked at the information on it and pondered for a moment. After packing some necessary items, he said goodbye to everyone in the camp and walked towards Mondstadt.
……
The sunlight from 1 to 2 pm illuminated the streets and alleys of Mondstadt. At this moment, in front of the Cat's Tail Tavern, Ye Li looked at Kong who was a little shy and embarrassed, and smiled helplessly:
"Don't lose little Paimon next time. If you're sleeping in, just tell me straight out. It's not nice to beat around the bush."
"Thank you Mr. Ye Li for taking care of Paimeng this morning. By the way, this is the Mora that I exchanged for monster materials from Miss Catherine at noon. It will be used as the payment for taking care of Paimeng."
"Hey, hey, hey, you two guys make me look like a kid who will get lost if he goes out without an adult."
"Isn't it? Judging from his appearance and personality, he is indeed a child. Apart from the fact that he can fly, everything else is the same."
Hearing Diona's complaints, Paimon's face suddenly darkened. It seemed that she had no way to refute this, but she still gritted her teeth and said a few words to save her face.
"Don't judge me by my appearance. I know Teyvat very well and am more than qualified to be Sora's guide. You can't treat me like a child."
"Oh~ Then I have to ask, why did you buy a Teyvat Tour from the store on the street across from the Cat's Tail Tavern..."
Seeing that Paimon still wanted to struggle, Diona asked about what had happened not long ago without further ado, but was stopped by Ye Li halfway through her words.
"Okay, okay, Diona, stop teasing Paimon. You can see that she's worked hard on this."
Feeling the big hand caressing her head, Diona looked at Paimon blushing and shyly, knowing in her heart that she had not thought enough.
Taking back his hand that was rubbing his head, Ye Li watched Diona and Paimon secretly apologizing, and without interrupting them, he started talking to Kong about the Adventurer's Association.
30 minutes passed, Ye Li waved goodbye to Kong and Paimon, turned his head slightly, and when he looked down, he saw a certain kitten staring at him with its fur standing on end. He knew in his heart that the consequences of his subconsciously touching his head with his hand had come.
Helplessly, Ye Li started to come up with bad ideas, letting Diona immerse herself in the fantasy of destroying Mond Wine Industry. He also took out a lot of recipes for the other party, most of which were fruit juice recipes, and a small number were sobering recipes, which was also a disguised solution to Diona's problem of dealing with alcoholics.
It took about 30 minutes to coax the child. Looking up at the sky, Ye Li took out a white coin with a cat's paw print from his pocket, squatted down and handed it to Diona, saying:
"In order to destroy Mond Wine Industry, I specially made a small gift for you. It can also be regarded as a blessing for you to destroy Mond Wine Industry."
Seeing Ye Li handing the cat's paw coin to her so solemnly, Diona also reached out to take the cat's paw coin with a very serious expression and nodded.
Seeing that the child had been completely coaxed, Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief, but the sky suddenly darkened and invisible wind element fluctuations began to explode.
In an instant, most of the original gods in Mondstadt looked up. Even Kong, who had just finished testing the Wings of Wind, looked up with a confused look on his face.
The Knights of Favonius deployed on the city wall reacted quickly and rushed to the central position that controlled the alchemy array. However, no matter how fast the Knights of Favonius on all sides of the city wall moved, they could only activate the first layer of defense. The level of defense was completely no match for the figure rushing out from the black cloud, and it was shattered in an instant.
With that, the storm swept across most of Mondstadt.
