"What I'm saying may be a little offensive, but trust me, it's just a matter of fact."

Rama spoke calmly: "A few years ago, your father Cripps used the evil eye to repel the demon dragon Ursa. He only used it once, and then consumed all his life force."

"Then, you placed the Eye of God in the Knights, left Mondstadt with the Evil Eye, and went out to find trouble for the Fools."

Then he was almost beaten to death.

The background of this plot is that Diluc wanted to find out why his father Cripps had such a thing as the evil eye, so he left the Knights and went to find the truth.

And the Executor of the Fools awaits all those who desire the truth.

Those who walked in front of them either chose to join the crowd of fools or were swallowed by the darkness and could not take away the truth.

Diluc was the latter, but he was saved.

To be honest, fools have a really bad reputation.

In the story of the Tribunal in the Fontaine plot, one of the evidences presented by the Water God was that the Linnie brothers and sisters were related to the Fools. Then all the Fontaine people in the audience immediately said "No wonder they would do such a thing" and "It's the Fools." He's doing something wrong, it feels like the least surprising answer."

A person's reputation can be very bad, but to the extent that the other party just hears your identity and thinks it's not surprising that you do any bad things, this is already outrageous.

The person who rescued Diluc claimed that he had observed him for a long time and felt that he was a fighter with faith. Diluc joined the team and successfully became a senior leader.

He was indeed talented, whether in the Knights or anywhere else, people quickly placed high hopes on him and gave him power so that he could shoulder higher responsibilities.

"You shouldn't know this." Diluc was silent for a moment, "But it doesn't matter, the past is in the past."

There are conditions for his reconciliation with Qin.

He wants Qin to give him the power to actually rule Mondstadt and punish the fools, and Qin also has obligations for him to fulfill.

Diluc will become a knight of the Knights of the West Wind, and maybe in the future, he will become the new deputy leader.

Like Rustam to Elendrin, the two of them shine together for Mondstadt.

All of this has passed, including the fact that my father was forced to die in an accident.

Diluc reached out and rubbed the Eye of God, his face calm.

"There is a very important question here." Rama asked with a smile, "Do you know the magic dragon Usa?"

"A powerful monster that caused trouble for Mondstadt thousands of years ago and was finally defeated by Vanessa." Diluc replied, "If nothing else, the Wind God at that time should have chosen Vanessa, just like Kong had chosen It’s like repelling the east wind dragon above Mondstadt.”

Everyone agrees that Vanessa is a hero.

But fighting off the dragon requires strength.

Especially after the Kong incident, the top brass of the Knights also realized that Vanessa was able to repel the dragon because it was the God of Wind who was behind it.

The God of Wind did not recognize the choices of nobles such as Lawrence, but he naturally did not like to personally intervene in the battles between the Mondlanders, so he cultivated heroes who conformed to his own free will to stand up.

"As long as you agree with this statement." Rama thought for a moment, "If I may offend, do you really think that an ordinary person can defeat the demon dragon Usa at the risk of his life?"

Diluc's eyes were cold: "I'm afraid what Lord Rama really said is, 'An ordinary person is worthy of doing such a thing'."

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Rama waved his hand, "But as far as I know, Mr. Cripps did not pass the test of the Knights, and he does not have the talent to become a knight."

Becoming a Knight of the West Wind requires talent and strength, and Cripps simply does not have this talent.

So he later trained Diluc, hoping that Diluc could become a perfect Zephyr Knight.

In his early years, Diluc did fulfill his wish. However, after the death of Cripps, Diluc gave up his previous creed.

"A person who has no talent in martial arts can defeat the dragon just by risking his life." Rama smiled gently, "Don't you think this is exaggerated?"

"Ordinary evil eyes do not have this ability." Diluc did not deny it, "but evil eyes have levels."

If the evil eyes issued to the soldiers of the Fools and the soldiers of Haizhi Island have this level of ability, the suppressive power of the Fools should be stronger.

After all, this is sacrificing oneself for the sake of winter.

Sacrifice one person a day in exchange for the fighting power to defeat the demon dragon Ursa for one minute.

If we weigh human lives on a scale, we can only say that this deal is really worth it.

But Rama and Diluc both know that ordinary people's lives are not worth this price.

If you want to gamble your life, if you want to sit on the gambling table of fate and have a chance, the owner of the gambling table will just sneer and say, "You deserve it."

Betting on life depends on the price of life. Ordinary people's lives do not have a price on the table.

"The evil eye squeezes life force in exchange for power. If we describe it as a tool, it requires the user to provide life energy, and then converts the life energy into observable combat power."

Such as elemental power, such as a more powerful body.

"So the core that determines the explosive combat effectiveness is very clear, the total amount of vitality provided and the mechanical energy conversion rate."

The total amount of vitality depends on the person.

Diluc and ordinary Haizhi Island soldiers cannot be of the same level. If they were the same, it would be too difficult.

The conversion efficiency depends on the level of the tool, which is also the level of the evil eye.

This should also be the reason why the Haizhi Island resistance army received free aid from the Fools in the later period.

The Fools need cannon fodder to provide data and then create better tools to ensure that the same amount of vitality can be converted into higher combat power values.

The tools provided to the cannon fodder cannot also be used by the executive. It is too insulting.

"This is also what I am curious about." Diluc took a deep breath, "The evil eye used by my father is of a very high level, and may even be of a level exclusive to executive officers."

Since it is a tool, I dare not say that it can be mass-produced, but the Fools cannot only have the resources to make eleven evil eyes.

Cripps uses the evil eye of the executive level, which does not mean that he is a high-ranking member of the Fools.

But there is no doubt that he must have some connections with the higher-ups of the Fools.

Otherwise, who gave him the evil eye?

This is also the truth that Diluc was pursuing back then.

He wanted to prove his father's innocence and heroic sacrifice, but the evil eye stuck in his throat, reminding him that Cripps must have some degree of connection with the Fools.

There are different types of tools. Of course, good tools and bad tools are not the same effect.

"Then let this issue go for now. I have no interest in Mondstadt's internal affairs." Rama let it go at the right time.

To continue the conversation would be to question Cripps' position, and this question would only anger Diluc.

There is no need. Whether he is betrayal or loyal, it has nothing to do with Rama, so why should he care.
