Chapter 366 “Return to the Star” plan, action begins!
At the same time, Mondstadt.

Deep underground, he successfully used the “Frost Sky Nail” to block divination and other detection methods.
Having made all the necessary preparations, Dottore is now making arrangements for the final work:

“.Expand the impact area of ​​the falling stars as much as possible, and adjust most of the landing points to Mondstadt as planned.”

“.Whether it’s the God of Wind or that troublesome guy,

According to their past style, they will never turn a blind eye to the suffering people.”

“——Klobber!”

“Ah! Master, I’m here!”

He pointed out the only subordinate who came with him from the Zhidong Laboratory.

Dotore looked at this subordinate who was a little greedy but always had a way to get him test subjects.
After a little thought, he looked at the other party with a somewhat dangerous look:
“——Krober, you are the only one in the entire base who knows the real purpose of this operation.
You knew from the beginning that whether it was this “Star Extinguishing” operation or those wastes in the outside world that had no experimental value, they were ultimately just discarded pawns prepared for the “Wind Dragon.”

“——Liyue always says that only the dead will not leak secrets.
What do you think I should do now if I want to completely eliminate the risk of my plan failing?”

“.”

Slightly shaking the bright blue test tube in his hand, Dotole looked at the scarlet pupils reflected on the tube wall.
Considering that the subordinate’s previous performance was quite reliable, he decided to give him a chance and execute a result that matched his answer this time.

!!!

“Ah! I am faithful to my master,
I swear to Her Majesty the Queen that I have not revealed any information about the plan to anyone!”

“——Now our confidentiality is perfect.

I, Krobe, will pledge my life,

Not to mention the master’s ultimate goal, even if it is a plan to deceive others, there is absolutely no possibility of leakage! “

He instantly realized that this simple sentence might have a bearing on his life and death. Even though he had followed the Doctor for many years, Kroeber still secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

“.”

I realized that this might not be a safe approach, and I knew that the Doctor had completely abandoned Mondstadt’s Fatui base for this plan.

Such a huge sacrifice must be offset by corresponding gains.
Krober recalled a drug that his master had developed before, gritted his teeth and said:
“——In order to contribute more to the plan, please give me the “Power of the Demon God Type III”.
If something unexpected happens, I will stop the Knights of Favonius until the last moment!”

“.”

“Oh, that’s right, then it’s as you wish.”

“Although the only enemies this time are the two gods, since you are so aware, you can contribute more to the plan.”

He did not think that the remaining Knights of Favonius would be an obstacle to him.

However, since the subordinates are willing to take the Demon God’s residue products that are still under experimentation,
Then, even if it is for the purpose of obtaining the neutralizer from himself in the end, he will never leak the secret to the enemy.

“——When the plan begins and conventional means of perception become ineffective, I will go directly to the East Wind Ruins to hunt the Wind Dragon.
Whether it’s the treasure-stealing group or our own personnel,
What you need to do is to command those useless people who know nothing, expand the impact of the incident as much as possible, and distract the attention of the gods and the Knights of Favonius.

——The material of the elemental dragon is of high enough value. If you can achieve this goal, I will naturally give you the due ‘reward’.”

“.”

As a scholar who is best at the “field of life”, Dotore has a deep understanding of human body modification due to the supply of a large number of experimental subjects:
——In his opinion, as long as the constraints of ethics and morality are discarded, the human body is actually no different from an ordinary machine.

Just disassemble a part, insert different parts to test it a few more times, or modify a certain place, sacrificing some insignificant service life.
As long as he wants, regardless of whether he has the Eye of God or not, regardless of his physique and martial arts skills, these “optimized people” can easily demonstrate extraordinary power.

Seeing that his subordinate not only often provided him with experimental subjects, but was even willing to experience the power of “evolution” himself this time,

I am sure that this plan is as confidential as Kroeber said, and there are no blind spots that may leak information.
In addition to giving up the original recycling plan, Dotore has also figured out how to use the precious materials from the elemental dragon after success.

On the other side, in the snow mountain area, there is the Sleeping Dragon Valley.

Among the vast expanse of white bones as tall as mountains and as sharp as spears,

A young boy with light blond hair and blue eyes was reading the “top secret” document in front of a beating heart.

Because Du Lin’s heart has been beating abnormally recently, we came to the snow mountain for monitoring.
Albedo, the chief alchemist of the Knights Templar and captain of the investigation team, originally planned to channel the pent-up life force in his heart as he had done in the past to prevent the “cursed” power from overflowing and causing many abnormalities.

But not long ago, he received an urgent notice from the Knights and had to suspend his current work:
——Klee and Amber have picked up the Fatui’s action plans in the past few days.

However, this information, which was obtained as easily as a child’s play, was verified to be authentic with a lot of evidence.

If he cared about Durin’s heart in front of him, it was not only because the other party was “from the same source” as himself in a sense, but also to ensure that the Mond area would not suffer large-scale abyss infection like five hundred years ago.

The severity of this incident in terms of short-term harm is undoubtedly greater than what I am busy with.

“.What is the benefit of this plan of pulling the life star to the ground?”

“.Where on earth has Klee been playing recently that she actually picked up something like this?”

Because of a request from a friend of the “Master”, Albedo can be regarded as Klee’s sworn brother and guardian.

Although I know that as the daughter of Aunt Alice, Kelly has always had very good luck,

But no matter how lucky she was, such information would not be blown by the wind in the garden. For a moment, Albedo was a little worried that she might have gone deep into some dangerous place.

“.”

“.Also, will there be a god taking action this time?”

“Not only that, but the one who did it was ‘that person’?”

Touching the golden four-pointed star mark on his neck, Albedo, who had a special background and inherited a lot of Kanreya knowledge from his master,

I sincerely believe that the “God of Authority” who is out of tune with other gods is full of mysteries.

“Boom, boom—”

The sound of a heartbeat that was like a heavy drumbeat and even shook the ground instantly interrupted Albedo’s thoughts. Looking at the heart that seemed to have been stimulated and suddenly became extremely active, he was very surprised by the current situation while reading the letter just now:
“.Is this desire? Why?”

“Except for those tooth fragments, I have never had any reaction to any external objects before.”

“.Because of this? This “Micro Crystal of Divine Power”?
But the seal of this crystal should not be broken.”

He took out a small box sent by Amber.

Even though he knew what was inside, Albedo still couldn’t sense anything unusual and was a little surprised by Durin’s reaction.
After observing for a while, he still found nothing and shook his head:
“Huh, it seems that the power of that god might be more special than I imagined.

If you consider this aspect, tomorrow’s summoning of the gods may also be a rare opportunity for observation.”

I found that as I took out the box, the heart in front of me beat faster and faster.

After being created by his master using the “Black Earth Technique”, Albedo has been troubled by the word “special” because he is incompatible with other lives.
At this moment, faced with a development that was beyond my understanding, I was curious about what would happen the moment I opened the seal of the box.

That night, in Mondstadt, after nightfall.

“This is a matter of great importance, and it concerns the stability of Mondstadt.
On behalf of the entire Knights, I would like to thank you all for your selfless help to Mondstadt.”

“.”

Near the early hours of the morning, in the office of the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius.

Under the usual orange-yellow light, Qin, who was pretending to be working overtime to correct documents, looked at the four people in front of her and thanked them solemnly.

——Except that it was inconvenient for Albedo to come back, so Amber sent the crystal of divine power over, and then the other party broke through the blockade of the Fatui.

At this moment, even Lisa, who usually hated staying up late, gathered here on time.

Looking at the two reinforcements from the Order who brought decisive help this time, and Diluc who stood up even though he had left the Knights,

Qin took a deep breath and decided to sort out the next action plan:
“——Based on the intelligence we have obtained and our observations of the starry sky,

Around noon tomorrow, the other party will complete the traction of the destiny star.”

“.The Fate Stars contain strong emotions and memories. Once a large number of them fall into Mondstadt under the control of the other party,

Then the many ordinary people inside and outside the city who have almost no mental protection ability will most likely fall into a nightmare from which they cannot wake up in an instant.”

“——We don’t know what level of technology the other party has reached. In order to avoid alerting the enemy by taking action in advance and causing them to forcibly deflect the falling area of ​​the life star and cause additional losses,
Everyone should rush to the designated location and try to avoid direct conflict with the Fatui patrol officers.”

“.”

“.Ha, don’t worry, sneaking in is easy for a professionally trained knight.

Even though he has been away from the Knights for so many years, his skills have not declined at all.”

Without waiting for Diluk to respond,
Kaia, who had other tasks to do, smiled and answered for his “brother” who was always doing good deeds at night.

Except for Diluk who just humphed as a default,
Neither Ying, Lin Feng, nor even Lisa thought it would be that troublesome to “sneak” into the target location.

“Well, are the remaining forces of the Knights going to capture those treasure-stealing gangs and fools who took advantage of the situation to cause chaos?
Can we really handle the work with such a small number of people?”

Recalling the arrangements I saw in the Fatui plan two days ago,
Paimon had heard Jean talk about how many treasure-stealing gangs and Fatui were left in Mondstadt before, and for a moment he thought that such a thing was unlikely to be accomplished.

“.indeed.”

“I’m ashamed to say that the Knights’ remaining forces alone are unlikely to be able to deal with the treasure-stealing groups and fools who are taking advantage of the situation to cause trouble.

But Kaia said that he was sure that those treasure-stealing groups would fall into chaos themselves.
If his plan fails, I might choose to seek help from the major families in the city and the Order of the Lords.”

He frankly admitted that the current Knights did not have enough manpower to deal with the Fatui and mercenary rebellions throughout the territory at the same time.
But recalling Kaeya’s past performance, Jyn prepared a backup plan and also believed that he could throw the treasure-stealing groups and the Fatui into chaos as she promised.

“.Huh? With such a small number of people, you can actively cause them to fall into civil strife?”

“Um, Kaiya, you don’t have a hidden identity, are you the leader of some treasure-stealing group?”

The more I think about it, the more I feel that this guy’s action plan will be very strange.
Paimon could not think of any other possibility except this speculation.

“.Haha, who knows?”

“.What if they are unlucky and have diarrhea on that day~”

Instead of directly answering Paimon’s question, Kaeya just smiled and gave a nonsensical answer as a joke.

“.”

“.”

“The time for action has almost come.
Although it is still unclear what their real purpose is, we can only hope to interrogate the captured fools.
But no matter what, your actions are of vital importance, and I pray to the wind god for your safety on this journey. “

Looking at the clock on the wall, it is clear that the time has come to act.

Qin didn’t waste any more time. As she stood up and sent everyone out, she emphasized the most critical part of the plan:
“.The fate star falling to the ground is an irreversible process. Fortunately, the divine power crystal provided by the Order Institute gives us hope of reversing this process.”

“——So, no matter what the process is, the ultimate goal of this trip is to build a ritual to summon the gods at the key nodes.
Because of the special circumstances, the process of inviting the gods has been greatly simplified.
However, in order to ensure due respect for the gods, I hope that everyone will not forget to recite the correct prayers while activating the divine power crystals in order.”

“——Hey, don’t worry!

Even if Ying forgot, Paimon would definitely remind her.

Compared to what he saw in the church last time, Paimon felt that this was already very simple! “

He waved goodbye to the leader of the Qin group behind him.

Following the companions who set out before them, Ying and Paimon, whose ultimate goal this time was the snowy mountains, also officially began to move towards their destination.
