Chapter 482

"You can go argue with the other squad captains yourself then," Varka grinned.

The old man was helpless and could only settle for that.

After watching the new recruits train for a while, the old man slowly said, "The internal pressure is not small, is it? I heard the Church has opinions about this."

Varka smiled and said nothing.

When a force is large enough, there are bound to be factions within it.

Even the Knights of Favonius is not absolutely pure.

However, those pressures were painless and itchy to Varka; they could not shake his position at all, and even less could they shake Gu Chen.

Now, no one targets Gu Chen, not just because of the Anemo Archon's favor, but because of the public sentiment within the Knights; countless elite knights stand on the same side as Gu Chen.

"How do you plan to deal with the Church?" the old man asked with schadenfreude.

"Just a bunch of people who hold up the beautiful deeds they wrote for the Anemo Archon and sing them," Varka didn't take it to heart.

"If these words of yours get out, it might be a blow to your reputation," the old man laughed.

Varka didn't care at all and said, "It doesn't matter. In short, the Church cannot interfere in the affairs of the Knights. If they have any opinions and want to target Gu Chen... then they had better ask the Anemo Archon's opinion."

During this time, Gu Chen's deeds were also circulating in Mondstadt, the most widely spread being that Gu Chen had received the Anemo Archon's favor.

The Anemo Archon had not shown divine miracles for a long, long time. Now, everything about Gu Chen proved that the Anemo Archon was watching over Mondstadt. The divine favor had already appeared, and anyone wanting to target Gu Chen had to consider the existence of the Anemo Archon.

Even if these so-called hidden arrows could not threaten Varka and Gu Chen at all, having the shield of the Anemo Archon's favor did indeed make things easier.

【Barbara】: A bunch of people who hold up the beautiful deeds they wrote for the Anemo Archon and sing them... I feel like I've been scolded. (Paimon? Surprised)

【Kaeya】: The Grand Master exaggerated a bit, but the Church of Favonius has indeed done this. (Laughing/crying)

????????? Begging for flowers???????

【Azhdaha】: Adding glory to your own god, right? (Funny)

【Dvalin】: Spot on.

【Nilou】: Speaking of which, the positive influence brought by Mr. Gu Chen is visible to the naked eye. Why are there so many opinions? (Confused)

【Keqing】: This is a struggle. Even if they know that what Mr. Gu Chen brings is all good, they still have to suppress it. It might be because it harmed their interests.

【Tartaglia】: Based on my understanding of the Fatui, is there a possibility that the Fatui are causing trouble? (Keqing? Questioning)

【Venti】: It seems you understand the Fatui. (Hu Tao? Smirking)

【Diluc】: Hmph, there were indeed people colluding with the Fatui during that period.

【Kaeya】: The video shouldn't contain things that happened in reality anymore. The Sect Leader's current status is already hard to shake, unless the Anemo Archon comes forward personally or Varka no longer supports the Sect Leader. (Funny)

【Tighnari】: Seriously, in the case where Mr. Gu Chen hasn't made any mistakes, I think even if Varka no longer supports Mr. Gu Chen, it wouldn't affect his status. Not only do the elite knights stand with Mr. Gu Chen, but now the new recruits are Mr. Gu Chen's base of support!

【Sangonomiya Kokomi】: This batch of new recruits has been training for half a year. They only need to be sent out to create some achievements, and they will quickly gain a firm foothold in the Knights. By then, Mr. Gu Chen's status will be even harder to shake.

【Diluc】: It should be noted that during the Traveler's time in Mondstadt, it was 【La Signora】 in Mondstadt, and before that, 【Dottore】 had also been to Mondstadt.

【Shikanoin Heizou】: The Second of the Fatui Harbingers. I don't know if Mr. Gu Chen in the video is his match. (Worried)

【Tartaglia】: That, forgive me for speaking bluntly, based on the combat power Mr. Gu Chen showed in the video... um, I could defeat him within three moves, let alone Dottore. He is a ruthless person who delusions of godhood. (Tartaglia? Surfing)

【Azhdaha】: Being able to say such things only proves that you don't know enough about the Sect Leader. The Sect Leader is only eight years old! Eight years old is the time for growing, plus the ultimate Body-Refining Arts... Guess how strong the Sect Leader will be in two years? (Funny)

【Venti】: Gu "Grand Instructor" Chen: Dottore? You won't have a good ending if you come to Mondstadt! (Funny)

【Seeing Zhongli】: Generally speaking, the Sect Leader is growing with time. At least I cannot see the end of the Sect Leader in this issue... Time is still long, let's wait and see. (Seeing Zhongli? Drinking tea)

【Gu Chen】: What do you know about what a talented warrior is? To summarize in one sentence: Just give me a little time, and I will be on par with you. Give me a little more time, and I will surpass you!

【Furina】: Worthy of being the Sect Leader. (Keqing? Celebrating)

【Dehya】: Geniuses are common, but Mr. Gu Chen's level should be considered a monster, right? (Dehya? Sending flowers)

【Albedo】: His talent is so strong it doesn't look human. Not sure, let's keep watching. (Albedo? Smirking)

【Kaeya】: Come, let's analyze the Sect Leader of this issue. I feel like we can discover something. (Alert)

【Shikanoin Heizou】: This time there is no exception. He is also from another world. He should have been an infant when Varka picked him up, and he gradually grew up... An infant, a mature system of Body-Refining Arts... Is Mr. Gu Chen born with knowledge, or is he reborn? (Shikanoin Heizou? Detecting)

【Azhdaha】: It would be fine if you didn't say it, but I seem to have never noticed this point! If it were an adult Sect Leader with memories, that would be normal, but this infant... what's going on? The Sect Leader has been defying heaven since he was an infant. Has he developed a photographic memory? (Paimon? Surprised)

【Furina】: There is only one truth! He was reborn! (Convinced)

【Xingqiu】: Could it be that Mr. Gu Chen was a great power before, died accidentally, was reborn as an infant, and then accidentally drifted to the Teyvat continent and was picked up by Grand Master Varka? (Thinking)

【Yae Miko】: What a cliché opening for a light novel, but thinking about it carefully, it seems reasonable. (Raiden Ei? Chuckling)

【Lyney】: If we follow this line of thought, then it is indeed easy to explain. (Nodding)

【Furina】: Are you the reincarnation of the Wu Di? (Funny)

【Gu Chen】: Since you asked sincerely, I will show mercy and tell you: I am the reincarnation of the Wu Di. Kowtow quickly! (Seeing Zhongli? Long Wang crooked mouth)

【Tartaglia】: Brother Gu! Master Gu! Please tell me, just how strong is the Wu Di? (Klee? Begging you)

【Gu Chen】: I don't have any memories, how would I know? (Shrugging)

【Venti】: The Sect Leader is still trying to maintain his persona of knowing nothing. (Funny)

【Azhdaha】: Little brother, this is your fault. At this time, you should cooperate with the Sect Leader! Otherwise, be careful that the Wu Di gives you a punch! (Nahida? Pointing fingers)

【Osial】: So the Sect Leader doesn't know either! (Suddenly enlightened)

【Venti】: The Sect Leader actually doesn't know, what a pity!!! (Funny) Beg.
