Si Luo responded without comment. He first pulled out the pocket-sized loli who fell asleep after eating and drinking from his clothes, tidied up his clothes and placed her on Ying's legs. Then he picked up the girl beside him in a princess hug and took them towards the carriage.
After driving along the road of Mingguan Gorge for about another hour, Si Luo and his companions finally saw their destination.
The hurricane that was powerful enough to tear everything apart continued to roar and surge, causing Si Luo and the others to see a horrifying scene like the end of the world. Everything in front of them was covered by sand and dust raised by the wind, but they could still vaguely see a circular building inside.
"Wow! The wind here is so strong! I feel like I'll be blown away if I get any closer!"
Paimeng, who had just woken up, tentatively flew forward for a distance and was almost blown away. She was so scared that she quickly ran back into Si Luo's arms and grabbed his clothes tightly.
"Paimon, you can't blow away the amount of food you've eaten."
Ying chuckled and teased.
"No way! I didn't eat that much!"
"Okay, let's first think about how to get through the wind field."
Si Luo handed the cute little elf in his arms to Ying with some amusement, and then came to Qin's side.
"If I use the element of wind, can I offset the effect of the wind field?"
The level of this world was lower than he expected, and was about the same level as the collapsed world he experienced at the beginning, so he was not going to use too much strength. At least for something like this that could increase the fun of the trip, he didn't mind spending more time or energy.
After all, the most important thing in a journey is the process.
"No, it's okay if it's just a short distance, but it's impossible to last all the way inside."
Qin answered without hesitation.
The Eye of God only gives them the ability to manipulate elemental forces, not allowing them to obtain the power of God. The wind field before them is obviously beyond the scope of human beings.
"In that case..."
Si Luo nodded, then reached into his robe, and when he took it out again, there was a light blue feather in his hand.
"Try this. This is something I got before. It is said to be the feather of some kind of mythical beast... um, some demon god."
To be honest, these kinds of things appeared in piles in his storage space. Although the effects were basically the same, he had too many wives in those tribes, and these tokens of love could not be treated casually, so he reserved a large area specifically for placing these objects that symbolized the girls' feelings.
"Eh? Demon?"
Qin's expression was obviously stunned for a moment.
After all, the word "demon god" is too distant to her, so distant that it is not at the same level as her - after all, the seven rulers of the mortal world today are the final winners who survived the fights among countless demon gods, and those demon gods are undoubtedly existences equal to gods.
But soon, Qin noticed that the originally raging wind field inexplicably became gentle when approaching Lingyu.
“It actually works…”
"Of course, this is the feather of the demon god."
Si Luo responded with a chuckle, then reached out and put his arm around Ying's shoulders, while waving at Qin.
"But the coverage area is a bit small. If we want to act together, we have to get closer."
Fortunately, the influence range of these feathers varies depending on the strength of their owners, and the one in his hand was just the one he chose after careful calculation.
"..."
As the holder of the Eye of God, Qin could naturally sense the range of Lingyu's influence, but as she had never had close contact with the opposite sex, she really couldn't do anything like taking the initiative to get close to the other person.
"Aren't you going?"
When Si Luo noticed Qin's dilemma, a look of confusion appeared on his face.
"No...I'm going to..."
Chapter 15 Jean's Hips, the Soul of Mondstadt
According to the maximum range that the feather could cover, Qin moved closer to him with slightly blushing cheeks. Through the thin robe, the warm touch of his body was clearly transmitted to the big sister with blonde hair in a high ponytail.
But even so, Qin still realized that a small part of her body had left Lingyu's protection, but she was now almost completely pressed against Si Luo's arms. If she continued to force herself to shrink in, she might not even be able to walk.
"Paimon, I'll leave this to you."
After noticing Qin's embarrassment, Si Luo, who had succeeded in his plan, revealed a barely perceptible smile. He then handed the feather in his hand to Paimeng, who had her little head exposed in his arms, and then pulled Ying directly in front of him and affectionately put his arms around the girl's waist.
"That should be fine."
Under the light step of Paimon's jade feet, Longinus, who had already fully recovered, felt Ying's touch through his thin robe. Then he reached out his hand and hugged Qin on the other side directly into his arms.
The buttocks, which were much more exaggerated than Ying's, not only touched Longinus, but even pushed it to the side, forming a double-team with Ying, perfectly sandwiching it in the middle.
The comfortable touch and psychological pleasure instantly made Si Luo look enjoyable.
"..."
Ying didn't have any special reaction to what he said. After all, her relationship with Si Luo was just short of being honest with each other and being as close as Guan and Bao. So being held in his arms and having the tip of the gun pressed against her hips was completely acceptable to her.
But it was different for Qin on the other side. Although she had a great affection for Si Luo, after all, they had only known each other for more than two days. After noticing the hot touch on her buttocks, the sassy knight was stunned for a while, and then she reacted. Her cheeks, which were already a little flushed, turned redder at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After all, as the future patriarch of a large family, Qin had received knowledge training in this area by the family maid a long time ago. She just didn't expect that the first time she felt the touch of that thing would be on Si Luo, who was already taken.
Although she didn't know whether Si Luo did it intentionally or unintentionally, Ying was on the other side, so her first reaction was not to break free, but to try to stay calm and not let Ying notice her abnormality.
Coincidentally, Ying on the other side had the same idea, which led to both of them deliberately not looking at each other, and not noticing Si Luo's increasingly honest reaction when being double-teamed.
"Is this all right, Jean?"
Someone who had taken advantage of the situation was enjoying the touch of Qin and Ying, while lowering his head with a smile and asked softly.
"Um…"
Although I don't want to admit it, this posture does just enough to cover all of them within a safe range. Although their movements have been affected, it is still within an acceptable range.
"In that case, let's set off."
Si Luo signaled the two girls in his arms to take the first step, and he followed closely.
Longinus, who was already being squeezed, became more and more honest as the others moved around. Not only did Paimon, who was standing on top, feel the increasing temperature, but even Jean's body temperature continued to rise as they moved.
After all, it was not just the friction here. The warmth and sense of security brought by Si Luo's embrace, as well as the hot breath he exhaled from time to time, were all feelings Qin had never experienced before. Qin, who had never thought about this aspect of things, instinctively produced a little emotion in her body, making her tights slightly wet.
"Silo, you must hold on to me!"
Moving forward in a hurricane that was powerful enough to grind rocks into powder, Paimon's little head popped out from Si Luo's collar. While tightly grasping his clothes, he spoke timidly.
"Don't worry, I won't let you get into danger."
Although he usually likes to call Paimon a portable and easy-to-use small cup, in fact, Si Luo has already regarded her as his wife, and naturally he has spared no effort to ensure her safety to the best of his ability.
But just like Xing and the others, Si Luo did not tell her deliberately.
"Ok!"
Paimon then relaxed a little, and then, as if to reward him, he used the soft soles of his feet to gently step on the spear of Longinus like a cat stepping on milk, increasing the friction area between it and Qin and the others' buttocks.
"How about it, is this speed acceptable now?"
While enjoying the comfortable feeling, Si Luo felt it was a bit monotonous. He lowered his head hypocritically and asked gently.
"..."
Qin's mind was in a mess. She didn't hear what he said at all. She just took steps mechanically. Then, as she felt the swaying sensation on her hips, her eyes became more and more blurred.
No matter how upright a knight she was, it was impossible for her to remain completely indifferent in the face of such closeness. What's more, Si Luo already had some affection for her. Without any disgust or resistance, it could be said that every touch would make her heart more confused.
"It's OK, but isn't the area of this wind farm a bit too large..."
Ying's reaction was much more normal. She even actively sought to be close to him, while observing the blurry environment around her with great curiosity.
Although she was not directly exposed to the wind field under the protection of Lingyu, the sound of the whistling wind alone gave Ying a very intuitive feeling of the superior combat power in this world.
"To be able to do this, and yet he's just a follower of the God of Wind... I really want to see what the battle between gods looks like."
"It's not entirely its fault. It's more like this: there's always a wind field surrounding this place, and the Wind Demon Dragon just made the wind field stronger."
Si Luo responded with a chuckle. Under the siege of the three forces, the Spear of Longinus gradually showed signs of weakness and began to tremble slightly with fear.
"But I am also interested in the battles between gods."
Whether it was Paimon who was stepping on the gun, or Ying and Qin who were clinging to it, the three girls all noticed the abnormal reaction of the fire stick at the same time. As the most experienced Paimon, she reacted immediately, stretched her white and tender feet forward, and enjoyed the sword marrow foot soak service.
Ying then reacted, her cheeks slightly red as she moved closer to him, and at the same time, a different thought arose in her mind.
Only Qin reacted the slowest. It was not until Si Luo deliberately controlled the sword marrow to penetrate the robe and soaked the elder sister's thighs wrapped in white tights that Qin finally came to her senses. Feeling Si Luo's palm gently stroking her waist, she became more and more conflicted while feeling shy.
Although Mondstadt is a free country, the internal atmosphere is not particularly open. Although she is on a mission now, she is being defiled by the opposite sex like this. No matter how much Jean comforts herself, she cannot choose to ignore it.
If Si Luo was also alone, she would naturally not mind risking the reputation of the Gunhild family and taking him down as her husband, but the problem now was that Si Luo already had Ying as his partner. Although Mond did not have the so-called monogamy system, she did not dare to bring up the topic before getting his clear response.
...
The journey would have taken no more than ten minutes, but due to Si Luo's deliberate procrastination, it took him nearly an hour to finally pass through the outermost wind field and arrive at the inner wind field.
Compared to the visually impactful hurricane outside, the wind field inside is more like a light blue barrier, a wall built by wind.
"Be careful, the density of these wind walls is much more dangerous than the hurricanes outside."
Just when Ying was curious and wanted to reach out and touch it, Qin on the other side hurriedly called her and spoke nervously.
"Is it that powerful?"
Although Ying has now mastered the power of the wind element, she has little practical experience, so she is not yet able to fully judge the strength of this wind field.
"It's really powerful. If you touch it, you will be blown back to the starting point in an instant."
Si Luo joked with some amusement, and at the same time took another step forward, using the feather's wind-avoiding ability to pass through the wind wall and enter the bottom of the circular tower inside.
"Okay, there should be no threat from the wind farm now."
After entering the tower, Si Luo finally let go of the hands of the two girls, then took the feather back from Paimon's hands and put it back into his own storage space.
"Is this Old Mondstadt?"
After Ying left Si Luo's arms, she quickly focused her attention on the surrounding environment and couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
This circular tower, which has been dilapidated to the point that only a small part remains, is already hundreds of meters high and its area is also extremely exaggerated. Just the bottom floor where she is now, according to the data she obtained by visual observation, is at least nearly 10,000 meters long in a circle.
No wonder all the residents of Mond once lived here. It is hard to imagine that this was a building in Mond thousands of years ago.
"The Lone King of the Tower... Diekarapian, this is the name of the demon god who once ruled Mond..."
Qin murmured softly, looking up at the miraculous tower with a complicated expression.
"Siluo, let's head towards the top of the tower first. We don't know where the East Wind Dragon is currently residing."
But soon, Qin calmed down, deliberately ignored her tights that were wet by the sword marrow, and spoke seriously.
"Ah."
Si Luo nodded, then followed Qin and began to look for stairs or ruins leading to the upper floors.
...
Somewhat unexpectedly, there were still quite a number of monsters inside the tower, not only the lowest-level Hilichurls or slimes, but also higher-level Shield-bearing Hilichurls and even Abyss Mages.
But this also proved that the direction they were looking for was not wrong, so with the joint efforts of Qin and Ying, they spent more than half a day and almost fought their way to the top of the tower.
And they finally saw the giant blue dragon that caused great panic again.
But unlike before, the Wind Dragon was now curled up in the center of the top floor of the tower, as if it had fallen asleep, and had no reaction to their arrival.
"..."
Qin held the sword in her hand and waited for a while nervously. After confirming that the Wind Dragon was still sleeping, she carefully observed the situation on the other party.
"Look there!"
The Wind Dragon's body itself was of a relatively single color, so the dark red crystals on its back were naturally very obvious and quickly caught Qin's attention.
"Is that where the toxins are concentrated?"
Qin was very self-aware. She knew that apart from her combat power, she certainly didn't know as much as adventurers like Si Luo in other aspects. So she didn't confirm it directly, but looked at Si Luo with an inquiring look.
"Hmm...it looks like that's where it should be."
Si Luo nodded, confirming Qin's guess.
"So...what are we going to do?"
"Let's try to see if we can destroy it first."
Without waiting for Si Luo to respond, Ying rushed out from their side, came in front of the Wind Demon Dragon, and slashed directly at the crystal with a sword.
However, the next moment, the huge reaction force directly bounced Ying's body back and fell directly into Si Luo's hands, and he caught her in a princess hug.
