Section 38
Chapter 34 The Lady's Confession, Wendy's Heirloom
Qin has been studying the information about Rustan left by Gunhild's ancestors these days.
Captain Rustan, that was her goal since she was a child, although Vanessa's creation of the Knights and overthrow of the rule of the old nobles was equally admirable.
But Vanessa's behavior cannot be replicated, and she also had the help of Lord Wind God.
In comparison, Rustan was born in humble circumstances and became the leader of the Knights as a civilian. He created the Earth Fire, improved the unreasonable system, developed national strength and military strength, fought against the dragon, and resisted the beast tide, almost reaching the limit of mortals.
In terms of achievements, he is not as good as Captain Vanessa in the evaluation of later generations.
But Qin feels that this is precisely because the things Rustan did were too difficult for an individual.
If the people of Mond did not ask Rustan to step down, if Captain Alendrin at the time believed in Rustan unconditionally and retained those military equipment and manpower, would the result be different?
Facts have proved that in Mondstadt back then, no one could really understand Rustan.
"I want to be someone like Captain Rustan!"
Finally, yesterday, Qin said this to her mother Frederica.
From the high evaluation of Mondstadt by the ancestors Gunhild at that time, it can be seen that Rustan's will is correct.
However, in the past five hundred years, Qin had no way to learn more about Rustan, so she thought of the underground fire.
"Do you want to contact the underground fire?"
When Su Chen finished listening to Qin's story, he was silent.
He didn't want Qin to become what he was like back then, but Qin couldn't stop rushing forward.
"Well, only by contacting the underground fire can you understand Captain Rustan better." Qin lowered his voice, "I know that this kind of thing is very rebellious for a knight leader, so I can only tell you... Su Chen, do you have a way to help me?"
A leader of a knight group actually wants to contact the rebel forces. If this matter is known to others, the entire Mondstadt city will explode.
So Qin can only tell the few people he trusts the most.
And among these people, only Su Chen has the ability to find the underground fire.
Why?
I don't know, Qin just feels this way.
If there is something to do, Su Chen will do it, if there is nothing to do...
"I can try, but I can't guarantee success." Su Chen spread his hands, "You also know that since those nobles were arrested, the underground fire has suddenly subsided. It is not easy to find them at this time."
"I know, please Su Chen." Qin did not give 100% hope, but just wanted to do her best to do this. If she really couldn't do it, she could only wait for a chance in the future.
"Actually...Jin, you really don't need to learn from Rustan. Right and wrong have spanned five hundred years. It's a different time now. You're fine now."
"Su Chen, you may not be able to imagine how much influence Lord Rustan has on the Knights." Qin said seriously, "If the truth is as recorded by the family, as a member of Gunhild, I have the obligation to complete what my ancestors failed to do, so that the Earth Fire will no longer be rejected by the people of Mond."
"Are you looking for fairness?"
"Maybe...I don't know, I just want to do my best."
Qin gently stroked the badge of the Knights on her chest, and her firm eyes touched Su Chen very much.
He thought of Alan Delin, and the two of them had the same brilliance.
"Good will." Su Chen smiled lightly, "Dear Captain, do what you think is right."
"Thank you, Su Chen."
And don't joke around, dear captain...Qin thought helplessly.
Then a little head suddenly popped out of the door.
Today is the last day, the last hour and the last minute of Klee's confinement.
"Captain Qin, Brother Suchen, are you chatting? Mom said that we shouldn't interrupt others when they are chatting."
The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Then I'll go first."
"Yeah."
Su Chen walked out of the office and touched little Klee's head on the way. Not long after walking, he heard Klee's childish question from the office.
"Captain Qin, why does Brother Suchen call you dear? What does dear mean? Can Klee call you that?"
"..."
...
Earth Fire Base.
Although the lady's invitation to the Knights indicated that the venue was Goethe Hotel, the actual meeting place was here.
"Teacher."
Arya came towards him.
Su Chen had told Arya to come to Earth Fire to understand the situation when he was at work.
The development of Earth Fire requires talents, and there are only a few available people at the moment. High-end combat power is even more difficult to show except for Alvin.
Therefore, the main purpose of the Earth Fire during this period is to expand, and to develop its power while the Knights are dealing with the dragon disaster. In this way, no matter what the Knights' attitude towards the Earth Fire is, at least they can have the ability to protect themselves.
"Lord Su Chen."
Alvin saluted respectfully.
Only the lady knew the identity of Su Chen. According to the internal statement of the Earth Fire, he was one of the core members. Even the lady recognized this identity, so Alvin naturally would not say anything.
In addition, Su Chen's strength is indeed ridiculously strong.
"Lord Judge is waiting for you in the secret room." Alvin said.
Su Chen nodded, walked into the base, and arrived at the secret room. The lady was sitting alone inside.
"Are you looking for me in a hurry?"
The lady specially sent someone to invite the knights. If there was no emergency, the lady would not be able to do this.
"Rustan, there's something I have to confess to you."
The lady looked solemn and stated the purpose of calling Su Chen.
"You should know my current identity, right?"
Su Chen nodded.
It’s no secret that Fool’s Executive Lady.
"Actually, I came to Mondstadt with an order from the Queen, the Queen of Winter. She asked me to come to Mondstadt to collect the Heart of the Wind God!"
Even among the fools, only the Executor has the right to know about the task of collecting the Heart of God.
The lady had been thinking about whether to tell Su Chen about the matter, because it would probably involve the latter in a terrible war. The lady was very scared and afraid of losing again.
But her loyalty to Rustan did not allow her to keep such a secret in her heart.
"I'm sorry Rustan, I didn't say it before because I wasn't sure whether I should tell you or not." The lady looked apologetic, "Queen, the power of fools is far more terrifying than you imagine, and I don't want you to get involved. "
Su Chen looked startled, but then quickly returned to normal.
Of course he already knew the lady's mission.
But when the lady said it herself, the meaning was different.
This represents the lady's complete trust in him, even more than the Queen of Winter.
"You don't need to apologize to me. Everyone in Dihuo has his or her own experience and identity. It's me who should apologize." Su Chen said softly, "As for Winter Kingdom, maybe I will visit in person in the future. Let’s go, but right now, I can’t get you out of it.”
The strength of the Fools is terrifying, which comes from the eleven executive officers.
Even though the young master was the boss in the novice stage at first, Su Chen didn't think he was weak.
After all, this is a novice setting. The plot requires the young master to lose, but he probably doesn’t want the players to think that the executive is weak, so the contest between the young master and the traveler at the end of the plot did not last until the end.
Strength and weakness are relative and depend on the plot.
But this is reality, so Su Chen has never underestimated the fools.
"You don't need to do this." The lady said nervously, "Actually, I am not in any danger among the Fools. The Queen is also very gentle. She is a god worth following."
The lady is really worried that Su Chen will be impulsive and cause conflicts with the fools.
She wasn't entirely sure about the strength of others, but each of the unshakable top three executive officers possessed demon-god-level power, which no ordinary person could resist.
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid."
Su Chen smiled slightly.
The next simulation is coming soon.
With the simulator around, he can continue to grow stronger until he surpasses the Seven Gods and even surpasses the laws of heaven.
Therefore, he will not put himself into a disadvantageous situation.
"But I'm curious, what exactly does the Ice God do to collect the God's Heart?"
"I'm not sure." The lady shook her head, "But the Harlequin once said that the Queen's purpose is to resist the laws of nature, and ultimately change this unreasonable old world and change those tragic fates... I don't know what she is going to do. All I know is that Rosalind’s existence is meaningless in a world without Rustan.”
"So I turned into a lady and followed in the footsteps of the Queen. She collected the Heart of God. I think she planned to use the power inside to fight against the laws of heaven."
The Heart of God is a symbol of becoming the Seven Gods, representing the responsibilities and powers under the leadership of the Sky Island system.
Of course, this does not mean that one cannot become the Seven Gods without the heart of God.
To put it bluntly, the key to becoming the Seven Gods is to be powerful. Just like the original Seven Gods, they became the Seven Gods because they were powerful.
But it is undeniable that the Heart of God itself can give the Demon God powerful power, and this is also the key to forming a link with Sky Island.
As a lady, I'm afraid I can't touch the secrets.
But she knew that the purpose of Foolish People was definitely not to save anyone.
——You must know that the total destruction of everything will be the beginning of a new order, and what will usher in at the end of destruction will be the dawn of innocence.
The lady remembered what the Harlequin once said.
"Maybe Harlequin knows." She guessed. "If you want, I can find out quietly."
