Genshin Impact: Legend of the Emperor
Chapter 42: The Temple Guarded by the Wind
Putting aside the surprise that Klee created at the training ground, Ying followed Amber to the temple guarded by the Four Winds with the huge sum of money given by the Knights.
Although Qin said that the Knights Temperance had enough manpower and there was no need to trouble Ying, the Honorary Knight.
But Ying insisted that she would feel guilty if she didn't contribute after receiving so much reward from the Knights. And with so many Moras, she and Paimon were not in a hurry to go to the Adventurer's Guild to accept commissions.
Why not go and help Amber?
Now that you have money, of course you want to spend money.
Before following Amber to Tevarin's temple, the three of them first went to the Adventurer's Association and bought a bicycle in full. 5000 Mora was not much compared to the savings that Ying had.
Ying was very straightforward when paying.
Of course after leaving the city, Ying and Paimeng still chose to ride on Amber's motorcycle. Compared to pedaling a bicycle with their legs, it was more comfortable to sit on the back seat of the motorcycle holding the sweet and soft Amber.
On the way, Amber explained the purpose of the trip.
As the power of the east wind, one of the four wind guardians, Tevarin secretly borrowed the power of the other four wind guardians in the temple after he fell into the wind dragon. This is one of the reasons why he was able to stir up a storm in Mond so easily.
The mission given to them by Captain Qin is to destroy the device that the Wind Dragon uses to collect power, weaken the power of the Wind Dragon, and prepare for the final decisive battle.
"Our destination is the temple that belongs to the Wind Dragon among the temples guarded by the four winds."
"That temple has been abandoned for a long time. There may be some Hilichurls nesting inside. There may be a fierce battle."
"An abandoned temple?" Paimon's eyes were full of confusion. "Why would the Wind Dragon's temple be abandoned?"
Amber looked a little embarrassed and said, "It may have been abandoned because no one has been worshipping it for a long time."
"Since the dark disaster five hundred years ago, the East Wind Dragon has never appeared again. During this long period of time, the East Wind Dragon has gradually been forgotten by people."
"There probably aren't many people in Mondstadt who still remember the Dragon of the East Wind."
The atmosphere fell into silence.
Paimon said with emotion: "I suddenly feel a little sorry for the big bad dragon that attacked Mond."
Amber continued, "It is for this reason that Captain Qin has been hesitant about whether to get rid of the Wind Demon Dragon."
"However, fortunately you came and brought the tear crystal stone with you."
"Lisa deduced from the tear crystal that the main reason for Tevarin's fall was the erosion of the abyss."
Amber thought optimistically: "Maybe as long as we find a way to purify the erosion of the Wind Dragon, we can become good friends again!"
Although Ying felt that even if the Wind Dragon, no, Tevarin woke up, the hatred between Mond and Tevarin would not be so easy to eliminate.
The two men rode their motorcycles along the path.
The road leading to the Four Winds Guardian Temple was so overgrown with weeds that you couldn't tell it apart without careful observation. Even the roads were almost gone. How long had it been since anyone had come here?
After riding for a long time, the two finally reached their destination.
Amber looked solemn, clenched her hands into fists, and said, "Ying, did you feel it?"
Paimon looked around curiously. Apart from the stone-like building in front of him, there was nothing special.
Ying sniffed the air around her and said uncertainly, "There's something wrong with the wind here..."
Amber took the lead and pushed open the door: "Let's go in and take a look, Ying, be careful, the power of the dragon is affecting this place."
After entering the secret realm, Amber used the control panel at the door to open the stone door of the secret realm passage with ease. Seeing Ying's serious look, she imitated Teacher Lisa and explained:
"The secret realm of Teyvat is a space fragment that is independent of the entire continent. It is easy for inexperienced adventurers to lose themselves in the secret realm, so Ying, I suggest you find time to go to the library and read the book "The Complete Book of Secret Realms". It contains a detailed introduction to the secret realm knowledge and some tips."
"If you encounter something you don't understand, you can ask Sister Lisa. She is the Knights' Librarian and she has a good impression of Ying."
"But remember, don't disturb Sister Lisa's nap, and don't damage books intentionally, or the consequences will be serious!"
Ying nodded seriously. When she encountered something she didn't understand along the way, she fully demonstrated the spirit of asking questions when she didn't understand and not missing any supplies. As a result, the journey that was supposed to take ten minutes took half an hour.
Amber was not in a hurry at all and patiently helped Ying and Paimon collect supplies.
The Knights are now well manned, unlike before when even Lisa, the librarian, was dispatched to clean up three of the Four Winds Guardian Temples. Jean's original plan was to leave all three temples to Kaeya and his Elemental Squad.
With the fast and convenient motorcycles and the powerful Seven Colors Team, they can eliminate the hill people in the three temples within a day.
But Amber, the scout knight, has been restless. Perhaps as a Mondstadt person, he feels guilty about the Wind Dragon after knowing Tevarin's story, so he has always wanted to contribute to saving the Wind Dragon.
Qin arranged for Amber to go to the Eagle Temple. As one of the three heroes participating in the battle with the Wind Dragon, with the elemental armor and the small props bought from Lu Ying, Qin was not worried that Amber would be in danger.
Looking at the thorns growing wildly on the key road leading to the depths of the secret realm, Ying understood why Amber said that the secret realm was not friendly to newbies.
If you don't prepare flint and fuel in advance, or there is no fire elemental in the team, you can only cut through the thorns bit by bit with a knife.
Amber skillfully shot flaming arrows to ignite the thorns, and Ying also tacitly released the wind breath. The fire tornado formed when the wind tornado met the fire cleared away all the thorns along the way, and even burned to death a few hillbillies who were hiding in the thorns and shooting arrows.
Because the energy reserve of elemental armor is limited, Amber usually only uses elemental armor when encountering a strong enemy. If the Hillichels launched a surprise attack while he was observing the thorns just now, the adventurer who was not vigilant would most likely be injured.
Hearing the screams of the Hilichurls before their death, Amber and Ying became more alert. Paimon, who was flying high in the sky to scout the enemy, also hid behind Ying with a terrified look on his face.
Paimon said fearfully, "These Hillilchur people are too cunning! They actually hid in the thorns. My vision from above was blocked by the thorns."
Amber found that there must be something fishy about this matter.
"The Hillilks will not take the initiative to go into the thorns. The fact that the Hillilks stay in the thorns obediently shows that the Abyss Cult is indeed involved in this Wind Dragon crisis."
Paimon was shocked: "Deep-Abyss Cult!!!"
Ying grabbed Paimon's short legs and pulled Paimon out, who was trying to hide in her clothes. She gave Paimon a slap to calm her down, and then asked:
"What is the Abyss Cult?"
Amber replied, "The Abyss Cult is a group of monsters that worship the Abyss. They possess the power to corrupt people's hearts and are said to be able to control the vast number of Hillock people in the wilderness."
"If the Fatui are the guys that other countries hate, then in front of the Abyss Cult, even the Fatui and other countries will join forces to deal with the Abyss Cult."
After Amber's explanation, Ying has understood that Abyss is a character that is even more hated by everyone than the Fatui, if there is anyone among the Fatui who can be whitewashed.
The Cult of the Abyss is a group of villains that cannot be redeemed at all.
The two of them silently became more alert, and Paimon hid directly inside Ying's body.
Unfortunately, even when they reached the deepest part of the secret realm, they did not encounter any trace of the Abyss Cult. They only encountered a few Hillilchurls, who were easily dealt with by Amber and Ying.
Amber detonated the explosives he encountered on the way directly with his bow and arrow, easily eliminating the surrounding hillbillies.
Ying asked Amber in confusion, "Why do the Hillilians keep the explosive barrels next to them? Aren't they worried that the explosive barrels might be accidentally detonated?"
"Hmm." Amber thought for a while and said uncertainly: "I think with the intelligence of the Hillilchirs, it is a miracle that they can use fire slimes to make explosive barrels. As for whether the explosive barrels will explode on themselves, it is probably not something they can consider with their intelligence."
"Makes sense."
Amber used the fire element to light up the fire element monument to activate the wind field. The two opened their wind wings and flew along the wind field to the tallest building in the entire secret realm. At a glance, they saw the blue dragon egg-shaped crystal placed in the center.
Amber: "The breath of the dragon, that is the node where the power is concentrated!"
"Break it, and our mission is accomplished."
As a result, until the three of them came out of the secret realm, they did not encounter anyone from the Abyss Cult.
Paimon, who was hiding in Ying's body, flew out and sighed, "It's so tiring!"
Ying: "Aren't it just Amber and I who are busy?"
Paimon puffed up his cheeks and said, "Didn't I cheer you on? Besides, my phantom limbs are also very tired from flying high in the sky to scout the enemy."
Amber inserted himself between the two of them and said, "Paimon has worked hard, and Ying has helped me a lot today. It just so happens that the dinner we agreed to last time hasn't happened yet, so why not do it tonight?"
Ying asked hesitantly, "It won't cost you too much, Amber. Why don't we treat you this time?"
"Yes, yes." Paimon chimed in, "Ying just got so much Mora from Captain Qin, there's no need to save money for Ying."
Ying glanced at Paimeng and asked, "Do you know what the biggest expense is in the monthly bill? It's your food expenses!"
Amber bowed and said, "I was unable to attend the appointment last time due to official business of the Knights. Please let me make it up this time."
Seeing that Amber's attitude was so sincere, Ying and Paimon no longer refused. Thinking of Amber's care for them since they arrived in Mondstadt, Ying decided that whenever Amber needed help in the future, she would be there to help.
