Chapter 36
Lawrence's Big Gamble! All or Nothing!

【Amber: Did Eula finally take this step? It takes so much courage!】

【Jean: It seems the Lady’s incident really stimulated her. She wants the Lawrence Clan to have a decent ending!】

【Kazuha: I really admire her! Such a decision takes a lot of courage, something not just anyone can make! It’s like asking to be condemned by everyone!】

【Aragaki Itto: But I think this is the wisest decision! Maybe in a thousand years, the Lawrence Clan can finally walk into Mondstadt with dignity!】

【Kamisato Ayaka: Don’t underestimate people’s hatred! Even a thousand years is not a guarantee.】

Eula’s actions are indeed brave, but there are also many obstacles.

This is equivalent to surrendering the entire family.

But Eula no longer wants to live a life like this, clinging desperately to survival.

【Scaramouche: Why does it need a trial? The Lawrence Clan was betrayed! I feel a deep sense of resonance.】

【Mondstadt Citizens: ??? Where do you live? I’ll send you some local specialties!】

【Eula: I might pay a heavy price, but for some reason, I feel strangely lighter.】

Eula does feel lighter in her heart.

She’s driven Schubert green with rage.

“Do you know what you’re saying?!”

“You insolent thing!”

“Are you going to burn all the glory and honor of the Lawrence Clan to ashes?”

“What honor is there left…”

Eula seems to suddenly lose control of her emotions. She roars, as if trying to vent all the grievances she’s held inside for so many years.

“I used to think that as long as I worked hard enough, it would be enough!”

“But now I know, if the Lawrence Clan wants to live like a person again!”

“Then it has to face its past!”

Schubert instinctively takes two steps back.

They’re all crazy, they’ve gone crazy.

“Do you know what the people of Mondstadt think of us?”

“Once this happens, the Lawrence Clan will be doomed!”

“They’d love to strip us bare and drink our blood!”

“Utterly naive!”

As a person in power, Schubert can see the current situation clearly.

Eula’s ideas are too idealistic.

Atonement? Ha! Once that door is opened, the Lawrence Clan will be stripped bare by the enraged Mondstadt people.

“Let her in~”

But at this moment, a raspy voice comes from behind Schubert’s curtain.

Hearing this voice, Schubert’s face changes instantly, then becomes respectful.

The audience doesn’t know who this person is.

But based on Schubert’s reaction, it must be an old patriarch of the Lawrence Clan.

“But…”

“Let her in!”

Schubert tries to say something, but the old man interrupts him.

Eula is also a little confused.

She knows the family has a true leader.

But she’s not clear on the details.

Now, not just Eula, but everyone’s attention is focused.

Everyone wants to see just how much foundation this thousand-year-old family has left?

From behind the curtain emerges a frail old man.

The old man is ordinary-looking, with almost no distinctive features.

But his every move exudes an endless sense of authority.

“Don’t listen to him…a child doesn’t understand things, he’s talking nonsense!”

Schubert appears quite nervous in front of this old man.

The distribution of power is shown vividly at this moment.

But Eula shows no expression. She simply looks up and down at the old man.

“These decisions…did you come up with them yourself?”

The old man speaks slowly, turning his gaze to Eula.

“The Divine Envoy gave me a lot of inspiration!”

Eula doesn’t lie. There’s also some calculated opportunism in her words.

“Good! Let’s do it!”

“What?!”

Schubert is instantly dumbfounded. He never expected the leader of the Lawrence Clan to sell them out with a single sentence.

“This absolutely won’t do!”

“Step back…”

Schubert’s words are cut short by the old man.

Eula is also quite shocked. She never imagined things would go so smoothly.

The old man clearly sees what’s on her mind. He smiles slightly and says:

“Strange? But there’s nothing really…”

“I know this Divine Envoy.”

“If we don’t give ourselves a dignified end, he’ll give us one…”

【Yae Miko: As expected of an old family from a bygone era, there are still a few old geezers who see the situation clearly. It seems you know him quite well, Mo Li!】

【Ningguang: A wise decision. Surrendering to Mo Li now is probably the best course of action!】

【Mo Li: You guys really misunderstood me this time. I don’t care whether the Lawrence Clan pleads guilty or not! They’re practically dead anyway in Mondstadt, not like they’re living a good life!】

【Voice From The Void: Although the Lawrence Clan is guilty of many crimes, they have been punished. And with Eula like this atoning, compared to certain Hero Adults, they’re much better!】

【Klee: It’s here again! The magical voice! But what’s a Hero Adult?】

【Mondstadt Citizens: No way, the Lawrence Clan gets a clean slate? Who is this Voice From The Void anyway? Out with them!】

【Furiosa: I advise you all to stop talking nonsense. I have a feeling that this creature in the void can decide the fate of us all!】

Mondstadt City has been full of major events since the arrival of the Divine Envoy.

If saving the Northwind Guardian was an event worthy of being recorded in history.

Then the public trial of the Lawrence Clan had all the Mondstadt people cheering.

No complaints, this was truly great.

At that moment, the Divine Envoy’s status in the hearts of the Mondstadt people had risen sharply, even exceeding that of the Anemo Archon.

This Divine Envoy really gets things done, and he knows what you need most.

On the eve of the trial, a special visitor came to Mo Li’s residence.

Looking at the old man kneeling before him, half his body buried in the earth, Mo Li smiles playfully.

“You guys are mistaken. I was just saying it casually!”

“I really had no intention of putting you on trial~”

“You’ve been in control of the Lawrence Clan for so long. I think you should understand!”

The old man remains kneeling, his head lowered, his attitude extremely devout.

He is the true leader of the Lawrence Clan.

“My little girl actually has a point!”

“Not just her, I don’t want to live a life clinging desperately to survival either!”

“So, I want to make a big gamble!”

The old man suddenly raises his head, his eyes flashing with a wild fervor.

“A big gamble? To take over all of Mondstadt?”

Mo Li smiles slightly. He knows the Lawrence Clan’s ultimate wish: to restore their former rule.

But the old man shakes his head at his words.

“For the past, it was a big gamble, but the Lawrence Clan now sees a greater pursuit!”

With that, the old man bows his head to the ground again.

“The entire Lawrence Clan pledges allegiance to the Divine Envoy!”

“I stake the lives of the whole clan on your ambition!”

“I bet you need manpower, that you won’t let us die!”

“All… or nothing at all!”

At this moment, Mo Li’s smile completely disappears.

This is the first time he’s been truly shocked since coming to Mondstadt.

You have to say that, for an extremely ancient family, there are still a few capable people.

These old geezers really see things clearly.

They actually see his ambitions lie beyond Mondstadt!

Mo Li stands up, silent for a while, then slowly lowers his voice:

“Then what if I really let the entire Lawrence Clan die?”

The old man doesn’t lift his head, but his voice is firm:

“If you, my lord, let the entire Lawrence Clan die!”

“Then the Lawrence Clan deserves to die!”
