Genshin Impact: Can’t the executive just give up?
Chapter 16 Art is...ah, no explosion?
Szydrowski is a little panicked now.
Although he had been working undercover in the Fatui for many years, this was the first time he had done something as dangerous as blowing up the cathedral in Mondstadt, one of the Seven Kingdoms.
The plan to steal the Sky Harp has not made any progress. Even the new "heretic" adults have begun to pay attention to this matter, which puts a lot of pressure on Shidroski.
At first, Szydrowski submitted the bombing plan just to give an explanation to his superiors.
You see, I even dared to blow up the West Wind Cathedral. It’s not that I was slacking off. Who made them guard the church so strictly?
He submitted that report just to let the "lady" see his determination, and then perhaps she would let him complete the task in a less radical way.
But he seemed to have underestimated the determination of the Lady.
Now he had no choice but to go ahead with it.
The Cathedral of Favonius is of great significance to Mondstadt, and the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius is not far from the cathedral. If anything unexpected happens, the Knights of Favonius will quickly send reinforcements.
Fortunately, Grand Master of the Knights Templar, Falga, led many Knights of Favonius on an expedition, and Cardinal Simon went with them, as well as a large number of elite Knights Templar.
This was the time when Mond's defenses were empty.
Thinking about it this way, Shidroski felt that this matter still had a high chance of success.
Rhine sat on the bench, listening to the explosions in the distance.
"What happened?!"
A nun shouted.
"There was an explosion nearby, and the Knights have gone to deal with it."
For a moment, everyone in the church was in a panic.
Rhine was still sitting on the bench, seemingly not taking the explosion seriously.
From an executive's standpoint, Rhine should not have stopped the action.
But as an undercover agent of the Fatui who infiltrated the Knights of Mondstadt, I unknowingly disrupted the plan of unknown terrorists to attack the Cathedral of Favonius, the landmark building of Mondstadt. This allowed me to further gain the trust of the Knights of Favonius, improve my prestige and voice in Mondstadt, and prepare for stealing the power of the God of Wind and seizing the Heart of God.
This makes sense, right?
"Ms. Barbara, please be careful. This explosion was obviously man-made. No one knows what that person or organization will do next."
Rhine grabbed Barbara who was rushing to the explosion area to rescue.
The Fatui deliberately chose to place explosives in places where there would be no pedestrians at night in order to reduce the impact.
After all, once casualties really occur, the impact will be far greater than the destruction of a few buildings.
Since no one was injured, there was naturally no need for Pastor Qi Li to go and treat the wounded.
Moreover, he needed some suitable witnesses, witnesses who could help him find the murderer who planted the explosives and destroy the conspiracy to destroy the West Wind Cathedral.
Those Fatui had disappeared long ago, but Rhine was able to sense their location very clearly through the marks of the natural substance left on their bodies.
"Miss Barbara, I saw several people sneaking away from the church after the explosion. I suspect they may be related to the explosion."
"what?"
Looking at Rhine's righteous words, Barbara's eyes widened with confusion.
Somewhere in the church, in a dark corner that no one noticed.
The dim light shone weakly on Szydrowski and the two Fatui behind him, making their shadows blurry and unclear.
Several people were holding something in their hands, which even had a "dangerous and explosive" sign on it.
"It's right here. I've already consulted Master Morewen. Before he joined the Fatui, he had great prestige in the Miaolun School of the Council of Ordinances. According to the blueprint he gave us, we only need to blow up this place..."
"Then the entire West Wind Cathedral would collapse with a 'pong' sound. At this time, the Knights were investigating other explosion sites. No one expected that there would be an accident in the cathedral, and it would be too late to provide support.
That way, you'll have plenty of opportunities to do whatever you want, right?"
A voice sounded from the corner.
"Right, so we... who are you?!"
Hearing the unfamiliar voice, the three Fatui immediately became alert.
Thick-soled leather boots made a clattering sound on the smooth marble floor, and a young man in a windbreaker walked out of the shadows.
Although there was no wind, the windbreaker on his shoulders swayed slightly, connecting him to the darkness behind him.
This is!
Several people subconsciously saluted the executive officer, but for some reason, their bodies did not obey them and they froze in place.
Rhine said to the person behind him: "Mr. Kaia, as you can see, when I heard the explosion in the distance, I saw these people acting sneaky, so I followed them quietly and asked Miss Barbara to inform you."
"I didn't expect that there seemed to be a shocking conspiracy behind this turmoil."
A blue-haired man wearing an eye patch appeared with several Knights of Favonius. He smiled at Rhine and said, "Thanks to Mr. Rhine this time, otherwise the Knights might have let these prisoners escape."
This...what's going on? !
Shidroski and his companions wanted to shout loudly, but no sound came out.
Mr. Executor, why, why do you stand with the Knights?
Kaiya waved his hand and said, "Take them down."
Several Knights of Favonius approached the prisoners in shackles.
But when the knights were about to put the shackles on their wrists, Shidroski and his companions were suddenly covered with black cubic crystals.
The ice in Kaia's hand flew and shot towards the cubic crystal
But the next second, the cubic crystal shrank and disappeared, leaving no trace.
Only a few bundles of explosives that fell on the ground could prove that there was a conspiracy here that had not yet happened.
"This..." Several Favon Knights were shocked.
Kaiya had a gloomy face and stared at the place where the few people disappeared. It was unknown what he was thinking.
"Ok?"
Rhine expressed his doubts appropriately.
"This kind of power is the first time I've seen it."
Rhine squatted at the place where the few people stood before they disappeared, looking down at the ground, stroking the spotless floor with his fingers, as if trying to find some traces.
"Based on the current situation, these people are very likely the masterminds of tonight's explosion. In any case, Mr. Rhine, you have prevented their plot. On behalf of the Knights, I would like to thank you."
Kaia gave Rhine a standard knight's salute.
“Of course, the Knights’ gratitude will not be limited to words. Although there were no casualties in this incident, the impact is still significant and the Knights still need to resolve it.
As for your reward, it may take some time..."
"It's fine."
Rhine waved his hand.
"Rewards and the like are secondary. The murderer of this incident has not been arrested yet, and there are still many things that the Knights need to deal with. These things are the most important."
"Thanks for understanding."
Kaiya asked again: "There is one thing I don't understand. How did you know that there was something wrong with them?"
Rhine smiled.
“In recent days, I have been sitting in the West Wind Cathedral almost every day to feel the teachings of the God of Wind, and Sister Victoria knows this.
But I just came to Mondstadt to enjoy the scenery, so I am so leisurely.
Those adventurers are either on their way to adventure or in the Angel's Gift Tavern. Even if they are devout believers, they will not pray in the church all the time.
That’s weird, isn’t it?”
Sister Victoria stepped forward and said, "It is true. I also feel that something is wrong with them, but..."
"Just what?" Kaia asked.
Sister Victoria looked at Rhine with an unfriendly expression: "Mr. Rhine is not a believer of Lord Barbatos at all. He came here only to see Miss Barbara."
She swore that every time Barbara came to church, Rhine would secretly look at her!
