Original God, eternal guardian

After Dulin was dealt with, Elendlin led the Knights of the West Wind to collect Rustan's body.

This is what a hero deserves, respect from the protected to the protector, and gratitude to the brave.

Rustan's body sat on the seat belonging to the Young Wolf Knight. Behind him was the statue of the God of Winds, where he swore his oath. This is the highest etiquette.

"Elendlin, I will become a great knight in the future, and by then, I will be worthy of being your best friend." It was obvious that the second half was a bit of a joke.

Rustam and Elendlin were close friends, but Rustam was from a civilian family, while Elendlin was from a knight family. In that era, although there was no strong class discrimination, the status of a knight was obviously more noble.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if you are not a knight in the future, you are still my good friend. However, I will not lose to you. I will definitely become a great knight."

Becoming a knight was the dream of most boys in Mondstadt at that time. They were both loyal believers of Barbatos and made a promise to each other under the statue of the God of Wind.

"Rustan..., you are worthy of your oath, and you are worthy of the people of Mondstadt." Aelendlin, who was standing at the front, sobbed.

The body was motionless. People cleaned his wounds. If you didn't look carefully, you might not have noticed that he was dead. Hero, you can't leave in a bad manner.

"Rustan?" A clear female voice rang.

People turned around one after another, oh, it's her. People in Mondstadt knew her. She was the singer Rosalind who used to sing under the statue of the God of Wind.

At that time, Rosalin relied on her beautiful singing voice to make the people of Mondstadt stop for her, including Rustan.

The two lost people seemed to have found a confidant. He would listen to her songs every day, and she would look forward to his arrival when she sang every day. Rosalind's singing made General Rustam's fatigue disappear, and Rustam's arrival also Rosalin always felt the meaning of her singing.

Soon, they were engaged.

After that, Rosalin received an invitation from the Order, and the two agreed to get married when she came back.

Unfortunately, all is gone now.

Rosalin was a little unsteady when she walked, and the people of Mondstadt quickly made way for her.

She originally hurried back from Xumi while the disaster subsided for a short period of time, but what she saw when she came back was the cold corpse of her lover.

She held Rustan's face in her hands: "Rustan? Wake up, I'm back,...didn't you say that when I came back, we would just...get married? Look at me, I'm back... wu... wu …”

According to common sense, this kind of farewell ceremony for heroes is not allowed to be interrupted in this way, but no one stopped Rosalin. Emotionally, people even sympathized with her. Her lover died to protect them.

She knelt on the ground and put her head on Rustan's palm. Tears continued to flow from the corners of her eyes, and she kept murmuring: "Rustan... I'm back, I'm back... Open your eyes and take a look."

Come over for a while

Aelendlin stood up: "Rosalyn, Rustan died for Mondstadt, please let us bury him."

Rosalin exploded on the spot: "No! He's not dead! He... just fell asleep. He will wake up later..."

Elendlin reiterated: "Rosalyn..., I know you are sad. I am in the same pain as you, but people cannot be resurrected after death, so please forgive me."

Rosalin raised her teary eyes and looked at Elendlin. Elendlin didn't even dare to look into these eyes. He was really afraid that he would be soft-hearted.

"Dead? Hahahaha, yes, Rustan is dead, I'm still lying to myself... Yes, he is dead." Rosalin's spirit was obviously a little broken.

Why...why did he die? Why did Rustan die when so many people died? God, what did you protect...what did you protect?

Rosalin stood up gently, turned around like a puppet, looked at the Mondlanders around her, and then walked in the opposite direction step by step.

Aelendlin had just buried Rustan when a knight immediately ran in: "Master Captain, it's bad, the monster appears again!"

Elendlin frowned, but still ordered: "Calling all knights and all residents who are willing to go forward, we must intercept the monsters. In addition, let the residents of Mondstadt City with the Eye of God be ready at any time. Fight the remaining monsters.”

This order can be said to be very urgent. Aelendlin is not sure that he can stop all the monsters, so Mondstadt must be nervous.

Outside Mondstadt, Aelendlin felt uneasy when he looked at the dark monsters. He swore that the monsters he had seen in his life were not more than one-third of the monsters he had seen in the past few days.

Elendlin waved the sword in his hand: "May the wind god protect us, let's go! For Mondstadt! Kill!"

"kill!"

It can be said that 95% of Mondstadt's combat power is here. This is a battle that determines life and death.

Rosalin walked aimlessly, she felt like she was going crazy: "Dandelions travel far away with the morning wind, and the autumn wind brings back the fragrance of the harvest."

But no matter what kind of wind, it can no longer bring me your gaze...

Rosalin kept singing:

"Dandelions travel far away with the morning wind

The autumn wind brings back the fragrance of harvest. "

This was Rustan’s favorite passage at the time.

She kept singing until her throat was hoarse and her mouth was bleeding. When she saw those dark demons, her heart seemed to be ignited.

No one knows how this power appears. Maybe human will can really do some incredible things, just like not feeling pain when adrenaline comes up.

The red flame turned her into a witch. Where people couldn't see it, Rustan's lover Rosalin was doing the same thing as him. Although it was unconscious, the result was the same.

Although there were many beasts in this wave, there were no powerful monsters like the dragon Dulin. They were finally wiped out outside the city of Mondstadt due to the resistance of the Mondstadt people.

Elendlin held on to the blade of the sword, barely standing, looking at the wounds on his body. The purple stream of light kept stinging his nerves. He knew he couldn't survive, but it didn't matter. Rustan also had a companion... I don't know. He knew that he was within a few days of him and would he wait for him to go together.

Elendlin turned to the remaining knights and shouted: "Everyone, with our efforts, we blocked this wave of attacks, but at the same time, we have also been seriously injured. I want to ask the young knights to go back , leave the rest to us, the older generation.”

"Captain! What are you talking about? How could we leave our seniors behind?" A knight became anxious.

"Yes, captain, don't worry, we are with you." Another knight also disagreed.

"Ahem,... Well, I'm very happy that you have this heart, but the Knights cannot be buried here. You are all fresh blood. You must, must survive, Falga!"

"Here!" a young man's voice sounded.

"You are a smart boy. If you take them away, if I don't go back in the end, you will be the leader of the Knights of the West Wind. Do you understand?" Elendlin warned Falga.

"Captain, I..." Falga obviously hesitated.

"Knights also have to obey orders. Doesn't my words as the leader of the regiment work? Do you want to disobey orders? Take them and leave quickly!" Aelendlin was rarely angry.

Falga lowered his head and made up his mind: "Become a knight within three years, now go out, let's... go back! Hurry!"

Many knights came out one after another, accounting for about one fifth.

They all performed a knight's salute, said goodbye to their seniors, and followed Falga back.

"Ahem, Captain, how long can we last?" a knight asked.

In fact, the older generation of knights worked very hard to protect the new blood. Almost all of them were seriously wounded by the abyss and were about to die.

"I can't last much longer. I didn't expect that I could experience such a battle in my life. It's really refreshing." Elendlin forcibly comforted him.

"The deputy captain is not alone. We will go down to accompany him right away..." Another knight sighed.

People are like this. They are afraid of death when there is no danger or when they are close to death. But when they really know that they are going to die, they are relieved.

"Rustan, my dear friend... I will not be compared with you. Lao Tzu, the Lion's Tooth Knight is not inferior to you, the Young Wolf Knight... Originally, I wanted to have a drink with you after this. Ahem, cough, cough. It seems that I will stay here." Drink below." Aelendlin's eyes slowly closed.

A generation of lions of light has come to an end.
