Chapter 43

“Yes, thank you, Lord Wind Knight!”

Even though she was usually a forthright girl, she softened up when facing Ye Ruo.

She looked very well-behaved, like a young girl in love, full of admiration.

It truly made the others in the squad drop their jaws in shock.

However, this female knight’s body soon stiffened, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

Because after Captain Eula noticed this scene, a trace of cold murderous intent seemed to appear in her eyes.

As if she were saying, what are you doing?

Are you in your right mind?

It felt very terrifying.

It gave her such a fright that she didn't dare to say anything else.

Because she had been so excited she almost forgot that the Captain was the one closest to the Wind Knight; how could she dare to compete with her for a man?

If the Captain became unhappy later, wouldn't she just slice her in half with one sword strike?

Wuwu, she was wrong.

So she silently took the token and began the contract.

The process of this contract went very smoothly; after all, the Cryo Whopperflower couldn't move at all, let alone struggle.

It could only be silently contracted.

After a flash of light, the token disappeared, and a strange mark appeared on the back of her hand.

She also felt a wondrous sense of connection with the Whopperflower in front of her.

It seemed much closer now.

She could even feel its emotions.

Hmm, for now, it was a series of negative emotions: fear, trembling, and terror.

Ye Ruo nodded.

“Alright, the contract is successful. You can summon this token with a single thought; it is the key to you and the Whopperflower.”

“Remember, this power is meant for you to better guard the City of Mondstadt and protect everyone.”

“If you use it to do anything bad, I will take it back.”

These last two sentences were not just for this female knight.

They were for everyone to hear.

This made everyone immediately straighten their expressions and stand at attention!

With one hand placed over their chests.

They shouted in unison.

“Please rest assured, we will definitely protect the safety of Mondstadt and everyone!”

“We will not let you and Acting Grand Master Jean down.”

“Hmm.”

After the first knight to contract a Cryo Whopperflower appeared, Ye Ruo also let it go.

Seeing that it was free from the restraint of the Anemo energy, the Whopperflower did not run away.

Instead, it was very close to this female knight.

It came to her side.

Upon seeing Ye Ruo, this Whopperflower even trembled, quickly hiding behind its master, not daring to come out.

Its icy blue petals were still shaking and shaking.

It made this knight overjoyed.

Who would have thought that after taking a Whopperflower as a pet, it would be so cute?

This is just too great.

A fierce elemental monster had instead become her own aid, and now it could fight alongside her in the future!

Hooray!

Then she also tested the Whopperflower’s skills.

The first to appear was naturally the common ice spike move, which used the power of the Cryo element to drill a series of intersecting, sharp ice spikes out of the ground.

If an ordinary person were hit by this, they would definitely be done for.

The power was indeed not to be underestimated.

And upon seeing a Hilichurl with a torch passing by in the distance, she immediately commanded her Whopperflower.

“Little Blue! Use your charged attack and take it out from here!”

Hearing the command, the Whopperflower immediately used its Cryo elemental power, and a massive amount of elemental attacks, like a machine gun, bombarded that Hilichurl.

In an instant, it was blasted into pieces!

The Hilichurl didn't even have time to react.

Despite the long distance, it could still easily take down another monster, which made the female knight love her Whopperflower even more, and she hugged it directly.

“You’re so amazing; I feel like with you, I won’t need much effort to solo a Hilichurl camp!”

Even this kind of long-range attack method could clear out the monsters.

The Whopperflower is indeed a very convenient creature!

Such a performance also made the other knights very envious, wishing they could also possess such a partner.

Who wouldn't crave something that could enhance their combat power?

So Ye Ruo gave them the opportunity.

He pointed out several locations directly.

“At the rocks seven hundred meters to the northeast, at the forest five hundred meters to the southwest, and at that corner a few hundred meters directly in front of us, and keep going at that top right corner.”

“Go, I can sense elemental fluctuations of Whopperflowers in those places; they are basically all Cryo-attribute Whopperflowers, and the one in the forest is Pyro.”

“Next, it depends on your combat level.”

“I will be watching your combat and coordination; this will also be a good battle to watch, good luck.”

Experiencing the battle with a Whopperflower firsthand would allow them to better understand the characteristics and attack patterns of this kind of monster.

Not to mention there were two captains here.

Ye Ruo would also appear at critical moments, so he let them go fight; if they could capture a Whopperflower, that would be the best result.

So everyone, full of motivation and passion, split into small squads and set off for the places Ye Ruo had reported.

Ye Ruo also moved his body and disappeared from here.

Then he appeared on a high point, overlooking everyone’s performance.

As someone who had developed Anemo energy to a very profound level, he possessed speed like the wind.

He could vanish in a flash and appear in every corner of this place.

It didn't take much time.

This was a skill he had developed using Anemo energy for acceleration.

And those knights were also holding their weapons, starting to search for the traces of the Whopperflowers.

On the way, they were still talking with admiration.

“As expected of Lord Wind Knight, he captured the Whopperflower so easily, without even forcing him to draw his weapon.”

“Capturing is harder to demonstrate than killing.”

“Too strong, he’s simply not on the same level as the other captains.”

“That goes without saying, otherwise why would Lord Ye Ruo be a legend in the Knights of Favonius today? His past deeds are full of legendary and magnificent colors, far beyond what ordinary knights can achieve.”

“Yes, as expected of someone personally taught by the Grand Master; it’s only a matter of time before he takes over the title of Boreas Knight.”

“By the way, how did Lord Ye Ruo know the locations of the Whopperflowers? Can he even sense them from so far away?”

At this moment.

A slightly more senior knight looked radiant and spoke proudly.

“Heh, you don’t know about this, do you?”

“Lord Ye Ruo’s elemental perception ability is extremely strong and can sense things from very far away.”

“Even for Whopperflowers at a great distance, the elements they emit drift through the wind, so Lord Ye Ruo only needs to judge the trajectory of these elements to know their specific location!”
