Chapter 256 The Wind Demon Dragon Strikes!
While Teyvat does have prophets and diviners, and the ability to foresee the future is not unfounded, such people are very few, and those who can truly predict accurately are even fewer. Those who can predict accurately are all renowned figures. If an unknown person claims to be able to predict accurately, they will most likely be regarded as a fraud.
"It's very simple to prove."
"I used my abilities to learn about you."
"Jane Gunnhildr, acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, a descendant of the Gunnhildr family. Her father is Simon Page, Grand Master of the Church of Favonius [Cardinal of the Dawn], her mother is Frederica, the current head of the Gunnhildr family, and she has a younger sister, Barbara, who is a priestess of the Church of Favonius and an idol of Mondstadt."
Qin's expression remained unchanged. Not many people knew this information, but it wasn't a big secret. As long as one was willing to investigate, it wasn't impossible to find out.
"Your favorite hero story when you were little was 'The Legend of Vanessa,' and when you grew up you became obsessed with romance novels, and your favorite romance novel was 'The Melancholy of Young Vera'... Shall I continue?"
"No need, I believe you have precognitive abilities!"
Qin, her cheeks slightly flushed, quickly stopped her.
The fact that she enjoys reading romance novels, and that she knows exactly which one, is something that could never be known to outsiders; only someone with precognitive abilities could know that.
However, since Lin Yu's prophetic ability is real, doesn't that mean the Wind Demon Dragon is very likely to attack soon?
With that thought in mind, Qin no longer hesitated and immediately shook a copper bell on the table.
Soon, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and a knight pushed the door open and entered: "Commander Qin?"
"Pass on my order: activate the highest level of alert, summon all knights, close the city gates, and evacuate all citizens from the square and streets. Tell them to return indoors immediately and not to linger outside."
The knight hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded in response, "Yes!"
After the knight left, Qin looked at Lin Yu and said, "I hope you're not joking with me."
Although Lin Yu's prophetic abilities were confirmed, he was, after all, a stranger, and there was always the possibility that he was playing a trick on them.
"Of course not."
Lin Yu's path is one of pioneering, not one of seeking pleasure; why would he do such a thing?
Soon, the knights who received the news began to evacuate the citizens of Mondstadt. Fortunately, they had the Wings of Wind, and the Knights' headquarters was located at the highest point of Mondstadt. With the help of the Wings of Wind, the knights could reach any place in Mondstadt in a very short time.
However, an hour was still too short, and the Knights were not manpower enough, but fortunately it was enough to evacuate all the densely populated areas.
Just as the knights were anxiously evacuating the citizens, the clouds above Mondstadt began to swell, and the wind picked up, bringing a chill to the air.
Moreover, the air began to feel heavy and oppressive, as if some unusual weather was about to strike.
The possessor of the Wind-type Divine Eye can even sense the agitation of the wind element, which is clearly more than just abnormal weather.
Lin Yu had already reunited with Ying and Ais, and they were waiting for the Wind Demon Dragon to arrive in the square.
"Hey, are we really going to fight Stormterror? Why don't we just leave it to the Knights?"
Paimon asked somewhat fearfully.
Is it really possible for them to defeat such a large dragon?
"You don't need to fight, so what are you afraid of?"
Lin Yu smiled lightly at Paimon.
"But I'm worried about Luminous. Stormterror is so big, Luminous would definitely be swallowed whole, not even enough to fill its teeth!"
"Well, thank you so much for your concern."
Ying rolled her eyes at Paimon, annoyed. "You haven't even fought me yet, and you already think I'll become your food?"
"Hehe, you're welcome."
Paimon said embarrassedly.
Ying was speechless. "You really think I'm thanking you?" she thought. She stopped looking at Paimon and instead looked at Lin Yu, asking, "Although Paimon's words are unpleasant, with my current strength, I'm afraid I'm indeed no match for Stormterror. Will anything else happen?"
Knowing that she is the protagonist of the story, Ying understands that she cannot avoid this matter, nor will she try to avoid it. But if she can't beat them, she can't beat them. However, according to the development of the story, the protagonist will definitely receive help, otherwise how will the story develop?
"Yes, the Wind God will help you, so just fight the Wind Demon Dragon to your heart's content."
Wind God?
Remembering the green figure she had seen in Mondstadt, Ying nodded.
"You guys? Lin Yu, aren't you going to fight together?"
Paimon discovered another brilliant point.
"If I go, the battle will be over in no time, and it won't serve as a training opportunity for Ying and Ais."
Lin Yu replied.
"Ha, bragging. You must know you can't win, that's why you're too scared to go up!"
Paimon made a face at Lin Yu, then immediately turned and flew behind Ying. But as soon as he turned around, he bumped into something. When he looked up, he saw Lin Yu.
"Little Paimon, how dare you talk to me like that? Are you ready to be punished?"
Lin Yu grabbed Paimon and then vigorously rubbed her cheeks.
"No, no... Ying, save me..."
Paimon made a mumbled cry for help, but instead of helping her, Ying watched with a smile as her face was rubbed, which made Paimon feel desperate.
Just as the group was playing around, the clouds in the sky turned pitch black, and the entire city of Mondstadt suddenly went dark. Even though the sun had not yet completely set, the entire city of Mondstadt was plunged into darkness.
Not only that, the gentle breeze that had been caressing us just moments before turned violent, whipping up a lot of debris into the air.
Just then, a dragon's roar resounded throughout Mondstadt.
Then the group saw the shadow of a colossal creature appear above the clouds. Soon the colossal creature broke through the clouds, revealing its enormous dragon head and sharp claws, and the light returned to Mondstadt once more.
The blue dragon's eyes were filled with madness and pain, devoid of any reason. Anyone who saw this mindless beast would feel fear.
As the blue dragon appeared, the winds blowing towards Mondstadt became even more violent, and some fragile buildings were even destroyed by the raging winds.
Screams echoed throughout Mondstadt. Although the knights had evacuated most of the citizens, a small number had not yet been evacuated and were naturally afraid of the raging winds that resembled a natural disaster.
"You go fight Stormterror, I'll go rescue the people."
Lin Yu unleashed his perception magic to its maximum, then vanished from the spot in a flash.
"Paimon, find a place to hide."
Ying took out her weapon, then unfurled her Wind Wings, using the omnipresent gale to soar into the sky and head towards the direction of the Stormterror.
Ais also activated the "Wind Spirit Swiftness" magic, flew into the sky, and followed Ying towards the Wind Demon Dragon.
"You guys need to be careful."
Paimon shouted worriedly, then turned and flew into a building.
