Chapter 10
I'll Defend the Rear... A Pincer Attack!

“It's all just empty fame, flashy but pointless!”

“He cares too much about his current power, but he doesn't realize that Mondstadt is just one stop for us travelers!”

“He has lost the meaning of travel…”

“What's the difference between that and skipping your own life?”

Regarding Mo Li's high status and treatment…

The Yellow-haired one made this assessment.

A person who has lost the meaning of travel is quite uninteresting.

But Paimon remained silent beside him.

Because he had already seen the scene of enthusiastic Mondstadt citizens voluntarily offering Honey Roasted Cabbage.

Why did he suddenly feel a bit stifled?

“We'll talk about the Four Winds Guardians later!”

“Our top priority now is to solve the problem at hand!”

“Mondstadt, you're such a worry!”

Under the astonished gaze of the Knights of Favonius members.

Mo Li was seen confidently heading toward the Knights of Favonius headquarters.

His actions were so familiar that everyone was dumbfounded.

【Kaeya: Oh no, I'm the outsider now, how can he be so familiar with this place!】

【Linghua: It’s a complete power grab, the Knights of Favonius probably haven’t even realized it yet!】

【Zhongli: A very clever move, he needs to quicken his pace because his identity is questionable. He doesn’t want to give the Knights of Favonius too much time to think!】

【Fningna: But surely they will realize it at some point!】

【Fontaine Citizens: Maybe not, Fningna, you see, his current actions are like he's playing a god!】

【Fningna: ???!!! Yes, you should have said that earlier, then I would have understood!】

【Nahida: …】

Mo Li certainly wasn't playing a god.

He was trying to replace a god.

And at this moment, he had already arrived at the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius.

Before anyone could react, he sat directly on the main seat.

This action immediately drew discontent from those within the Knights of Favonius.

But Jean showed no emotion, making it seem like it was all perfectly natural.

However, those with sharp eyes noticed that she exchanged a quick glance with Lisa.

“There shouldn’t be any problems, I sense a strange aura from him!”

“And everyone saw the battle just now, he really does have the power of the Wind God!”

With Lisa’s confirmation, Jean felt more reassured.

She wasn’t someone who liked to fight for power.

If Mo Li really had the strength to handle everything.

Then she was willing to see this situation.

“God Envoy! Let’s not waste time with pleasantries, we should…”

“Clean up the abandoned Four Winds Guardians temples, right?”

However, to everyone's surprise, before Jean could speak, Mo Li directly and decisively stated it.

“How do you know that!”

Lisa, the investigator, was most shocked.

She had put in a lot of effort to obtain this information, even using magic she usually didn’t rely on.

The Knights of Favonius had already confirmed that Mo Li had just arrived in Mondstadt.

But he acted as if he knew everything!

Mo Li didn’t reply, he merely glanced at them calmly.

But even this posture made his image appear tall and imposing in the eyes of every member of the Knights of Favonius.

【Arataki Itto: Bro, you’re so cool! Can I hang out with you? To be honest, in that moment, I imagined a million cool lines, but now I realize that not saying anything is the coolest!】

【Kuki Shinobu: Boss, please don’t do that in public…】

【Mo Li: It’s fine, we’ll have fun together later!】

【Arataki Itto: Really? Bro, I told you, when you first appeared, I felt like we clicked instantly!】

【Paimon: Hey, hey, hey, you didn’t say that at the start, did you!】

Everyone was amazed by Mo Li's ability to know the future.

At the same time, they were most concerned with Mo Li's statement.

It was now clear that this traveler was very different from the Yellow-haired one.

Then it could be determined that the outcome would definitely be very different.

So now everyone couldn't just watch the situation unfold with amusement.

It’s hard to imagine what the story would be like if such a strong person arrived in their own nation.

Nahida was the most worried at this moment, because when she made her deduction, the Tree of Dreams around her violently shook.

“Is your arrival a blessing or a curse for Sumeru?”

Of course, no one knew about Nahida's worries, or perhaps everyone had their own anxieties.

【Aether: I don’t feel any difference, in the end, we’re going to clean up the Four Winds Temples anyway!】

【Barbara: Maybe this is the Wind God's clever strategy, just by using a title, he’s got Mo Li working for us!】

【Venti: I didn’t mean it like that!】

【Fningna: Saying that might hurt someone’s feelings…】

【Aether: …】

【Barbara: Ah, I’m sorry, sorry, Honorable Knight, I really didn’t mean to say you were working!】

The Yellow-haired one felt a little hurt now.

Indeed, unintentional words are the most hurtful.

But he was also looking forward to this now.

Mo Li had just used the difference in status to create the impact he had before.

But under the Wind God's calculations, the course of the story should remain the same.

But who would have thought that the next moment, before the Knights of Favonius could speak, Mo Li spoke first.

“There are three temples that need to be cleared immediately!”

“Captain Kaeya…”

“You take your men to clean up the first one!”

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned, and Kaeya’s eyes widened.

Dude, are you giving orders now?

Almost everyone’s eyes turned to Jean.

But Jean didn’t have any reaction, she just nodded.

In her opinion, Mo Li’s arrangement was reasonable.

As long as it benefited Mondstadt, he wouldn’t care about all that.

Since even Jean had no objection, Kaeya could only nod reluctantly.

“The second one, Bennett and Razor will form an adventurer team to clean up!”

“I know Razor is Lisa’s apprentice, young people need to be trained!”

If Kaeya’s arrangement was still reasonable, the arrangement for the second temple was a bit off.

It’s not like the Knights of Favonius were short-staffed, why let outsiders go?

But at this time, Lisa nodded thoughtfully.

The God Envoy must have a purpose in doing this.

And he also felt that young people needed to be tested.

But Bennett also received the God Envoy’s attention, he must be a complicated character.

“We don’t need to arrange the third one, someone will take care of it!”

If the previous arrangements were still reasonable, Mo Li’s following words left everyone dumbfounded.

Without allowing anyone to question him, Mo Li stood up.

He surveyed the room and said solemnly:

“Arrangements are complete!”

“Kaeya to clean up the first one!”

“Razor and Bennett to clean up the second one!”

“I’ve already sent people to the third one!”

“Jean, Lisa, Amber, Eula, Noelle… we will hold the rear!”

“We will form a pincer attack with you!”
