Chapter 417
Unless Lord Barbatos appeared and explained it himself, no one's words would be of any use.
It might even be that Lord Barbatos himself couldn't change this matter; after all, this was even more thorny than the matter of the Lawrence clan.
"There's no need to care; Decarabian herself surely wouldn't care about this matter, otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen that path back then." Mu Yang spread his hands: "This world had neither truth nor lies at the beginning; there were only facts that existed.
However, all things existing in this world only live by mistaking the 'facts' that are favorable to them as truth, because if they didn't, there would be no other reason to survive.
But in reality, for the powerless existences that occupy most of the world, the 'facts' that are not suitable for affirming oneself are the only truth."
Listening to Mu Yang's words, both Barbara and Jean felt they were profound; as expected of Mu Yang, his words made so much sense.
Perhaps this was human nature; if the truth about Decarabian were truly exposed, I fear Mondstadt would fall into chaos.
Perhaps they would have to make amends to Decarabian from other places; after all, she had once sacrificed a lot for Mondstadt.
"I hope that when the time comes, Decarabian won't mind what we call her!" After a long time, Jean sighed helplessly.
If she could, Jean wouldn't want to compromise on this matter; it didn't fit Jean's knightly spirit, but Jean also knew that she had to compromise on this.
As it stands, once the matter of Decarabian is exposed, it will make countless people doubt their lives, and might even cause chaos in Mondstadt.
For now, Jean can only compromise. If she had strength comparable to the Anemo Archon Barbatos, could she solve these difficulties herself?
"Alright, eat some breakfast first." Mu Yang gestured to Jean, then said to her: "You don't need to go to the Knights of Favonius for work today; just rest well at home."
As for Barbara, Mu Yang didn't give any instructions.
Originally, based on Mu Yang's estimation of Barbara, she might not be able to walk for several days; Mu Yang was very confident in his own combat power.
Even if Jean hadn't helped yesterday, Barbara wouldn't have just been torn.
"But if I don't go to work, what if something happens?" Jean frowned upon hearing Mu Yang's words, feeling hesitant.
Even though she wanted to rest well today, with her back aching, asking for leave or skipping work was too difficult for Jean.
As long as she wasn't dead, work had to continue.
"Jean, you must understand that the Knights of Favonius, and even Mondstadt, will not cease to function just because you are gone.
If a country cannot function without one person, then that country has no meaning in continuing to exist." Mu Yang stared at Jean and said earnestly.
"This..." Hearing Mu Yang's words, Jean's heart trembled. Was Mu Yang going to erase Mondstadt?
Why did it feel more dangerous to be Mu Yang's woman than before!
But was Mu Yang using his own way to care for her?
This domineering CEO vibe left her not knowing what to say.
"It's not directed at Mondstadt, nor am I saying I want to destroy Mondstadt." Seeming to sense Jean's misunderstanding, Mu Yang explained patiently: "
You have always shouldered the affairs of Mondstadt yourself. I admit that as the actual Grand Master of Mondstadt, some things do indeed require you to do them.
But some things are not what you should be doing, such as finding cats and dogs; this is not something the Knights of Favonius should be doing."
"I've told you about this before; I don't do that anymore." Jean looked at Mu Yang, laughing and crying at the same time.
So Mu Yang was still dissatisfied with this matter!!
But thinking back carefully, she did seem quite clumsy during that time.
Finding cats and dogs was indeed not something a Knight of Favonius should do. If those people had needs, they could completely go to the Adventurers' Guild to make a commission.
Those guys specifically came to her for help just to save money.
Jean didn't dislike these things, and even once thought that this was what she should do as a knight.
But after Mu Yang's persuasion and teaching, Jean also knew that she was no longer an ordinary Knight of Favonius, but the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius; she couldn't be like before.
If she had time, perhaps she could still do those things.
But if Jean herself was very busy and still had to do these things, according to Mu Yang's words, these people were indeed a bit ignorant.
After all, if she spent more time on these trivial matters, she wouldn't be able to do more important things.
Jean could already accept this.
It was just that she had never thought about asking for leave because she was tired due to Mu Yang.
Moreover, as a knight, she wasn't ridden like this either.
"Is that so? That's good! It seems you've grown a lot during this time." Seeing Jean like this, Mu Yang nodded slightly: "Wait, I'll open a space portal for you, and you can just go directly, saving the process of walking in between.
After you get off work, I'll bring you back directly."
Seeing Mu Yang like this, a smile appeared on the corner of Jean's mouth. Although the steps had some problems, this seemed quite good too.
Moreover, Mu Yang was more gentle than she had imagined.
She didn't hesitate to agree.
Barbara, on the other hand, looked at her sister thoughtfully, then at Mu Yang. Why did she feel like she was the redundant one?
She was clearly the one who came first, and yesterday she was almost broken!!
【Seeing Seeing Guizhong: "Come, come, let me show you the Mora water heater I made.
As long as you use Mora, you can heat water without needing to burn firewood.
Although burning water with firewood is cheaper, using my Mora water heater, you can boil water in just two minutes, and it's convenient for boiling water at home.
After all, using firewood isn't particularly suitable for boiling water at home."
Mu Yang: "It's indeed a pretty good invention; it would be even better if it could be promoted.
Of course, if you could purify water, that would be even better.
On Teyvat, although the water is very clean in many places, and some places have Oceanids to purify water sources, it's hard to guarantee that the water you drink is clean.
Drinking hot water daily can also ensure a certain level of health for the people and reduce some diseases.
But if it had the function of purifying water sources, that would be even better."
Seeing Seeing Guizhong: "Purifying water sources?
Why not ask Focalors for help?
According to my understanding, Fontaine seems to have a large number of Oceanids, right?
As long as you find more Oceanids, you can ensure that the vast majority of water sources on Teyvat are clean."
Focalors: "Please don't overestimate Oceanids, and I hope you can give Oceanids some respect. In fact, the Oceanids that can purify water sources account for less than one percent of the total number of Oceanids.
Moreover, the people of Fontaine now are essentially Oceanids themselves!!"
Mu Yang: "!!!"
Regarding Regarding Zhongli: "!!!"
Neuvillette: "??"
Navia: "We have Primordial Sea water in our bodies, I understand, but why have we become Oceanids!?"
Asmoday: "The former Hydro Archon Egeria used Primordial Sea water to create humans, turning Oceanids into people of Fontaine..."
Mu Yang: "So that's it, so that's why the people of Fontaine dissolve after drinking Primordial Sea water?"
Focalors: "Indeed, I am actually an Oceanid too...
An Oceanid who wanted to become human and live on land!"
Seeing Seeing Guizhong: "Alright, since that's the case, then we won't ask the Oceanids for help."
Even Seeing Seeing Guizhong knew that at this time, it was impossible to randomly ask Focalors for help; after all, Oceanids were all Focalors's kind, so she had to give some face.
Focalors: "Fontaine's water is the cleanest, but it's a pity that we can't transport Fontaine's water to the entire Teyvat continent, otherwise, we in Fontaine could start a water resource business.
Of course, if you can really hire Oceanids to help you there, I wouldn't mind.
I just hope you don't treat them badly."
Focalors's words left others somewhat silent. If it were just Focalors, they wouldn't say anything.
But they couldn't help it that the people of Fontaine now were actually Oceanids!
This made it difficult for them to act.
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata: "If you want to purify water sources, why not look for Suicune?
Mu Yang previously created the so-called Three Legendary Beasts, and among them, three Suicunes were created.
Two of the weaker ones were arranged by Mu Yang to go outside, specifically to purify water sources.
But even if they are weaker, as far as I know, they have the strength of an average Adeptus."
Cloud Retainer: "Are you using us as a unit of combat power again?
Forget it, this Adeptus is already used to it."
Thinking back to the past, the status of Adepti was quite high, but in the chat group, Adepti had been reduced to units of combat power.
Cloud Retainer really didn't want to complain anymore; she couldn't afford to offend people like Greater Lord Rukkhadevata!
