Chapter 484

【Nilou】: I don't think so. Mr. Gu Chen is such a good person, and the theme of the video is 【The Best Grand Master】, so Mr. Gu Chen must be a good person! (Convinced)

【Collei】: 【Just like in a romance novel】 I have discovered that little brother Gu Chen is currently upgrading his status and strength in the Knights! Soon he will become an overbearing president, and by then, Miss Jean... hehehe. (Collei? Longing)

【Yae Miko】: Good, good, good. I have already imagined the plot of the overbearing president falling in love with me. (Yae Miko? Smirking)

【Jean】:...

【Lisa】: Um, um, although it's a bit cheesy, it fits the direction in the video very well.

【Barbara】: (Qiqi? Observing in secret)

【Kaeya】: Barbara, don't observe first, you can't run away either. (Funny)

【Barbara】: Ah...

【Yae Miko】: Sisters, of course, share the blessings together. (Yae Miko? Smirking)

【Azhdaha】: At this time, I will take out a keyword, and this group will explode. 【You came at just the right time】 (Funny)

【Lyney】: The sense of déjà vu is too strong!!

【Nahida】: (Paimon? Surprised)

【Nilou】: I can fully imagine it. (Paimon? Surprised)

【Collei】: Damn, damn, damn! Why can't the video be fast-forwarded!! (Annoyed)

【Kirara】: Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!!!

【Barbara】: Let's just watch the video. (Qiqi? Falling)

【Paimon】: Although I know you are changing the subject, Gu-boss's growth speed is too amazing. If I didn't know that he might be the reincarnation of the Martial Emperor, I would suspect that he is not human at all, perhaps the illegitimate child of a god!

Since the last conversation with Varka, Gu Chen had entered a fixed life.

After half a year of training, the new recruit camp could be considered elite knights, even if they hadn't actually been on the battlefield.

Each of them was not very old, and their stature looked much sturdier. Among them, people like Diluc who had cultivated Qi and Blood could easily take on several elite knights alone.

They were still young, and the time they had spent cultivating the Body-Refining Arts was not long. If given enough time, it was hard to imagine what a dazzling future that would be.

New recruits are destined to need tempering.

As the Grand Instructor, Gu Chen had to shoulder the responsibility.

The veterans didn't need him to urge them; they would consciously cultivate and become stronger.

Therefore, apart from three meals a day and sleeping time, Gu Chen was either cultivating or leading the new recruit camp to the wilderness to clear out monsters.

With intelligence provided by the reconnaissance squad, every sortie was very fruitful.

Triumphs again and again made the names of Gu Chen and others even louder.

Now in Mondstadt, the popularity of the name Gu Chen was no less than Varka's, and he was even called Varka's best successor, the future star of the Knights of Favonius.

It fits his title of Morning Star Knight very well.

Diluc and others who were with Gu Chen also rose to fame.

They were young, they were confident, they were strong, and they were considered by the older generation of knights to be the indispensable pillars of the Knights in the future.

Among this group, Diluc was the most dazzling, always taking the lead every time they cleared out monsters.

Diluc's talent was very high, and Gu Chen was intentionally cultivating him.

Gu Chen had once heard Diluc talk about his father, Crepus.

Crepus had two regrets: one was that he could not become a knight, and the other was that he had never been granted a Vision.

And Crepus's son, Diluc, had now become a knight, making up for one of Crepus's regrets.

And the Vision had gradually faded because of the Body-Refining Arts.

Visions are indeed very powerful, but Crepus no longer pursued them so much, because with Gu Chen's special permission, Crepus was qualified to cultivate the Body-Refining Arts.

"I heard you have a younger brother?"

On the way back, Gu Chen, riding on a warhorse, turned his head to look at the red-haired youth beside him.

Diluc nodded and said: "Yes, he is an adopted son taken in by my father. His name is Kaeya. Father plans to let him take the exam for the Knights next year."

As he spoke, a curve appeared on Diluc's lips, and his face carried a sunny smile.

After thinking for a short while, Gu Chen said: "When you go back, teach him some things. Let him grow up as soon as possible and become a leader in the second batch of new recruits."

"Does the Grand Instructor mean?" Diluc was overjoyed when he heard this.

"It is exactly what you think."

Gu Chen chuckled, then said: "Alright, let's enter the city."

The cavalry entering the city caused a sensation once again.

This time, this cavalry squad composed of a hundred people had crushed countless monsters. It was heard that they had cleared as many as twelve monster strongholds!

The people of Mondstadt cheered and gave their praise without hesitation.

Diluc and other youths raised their lips, their backs straight, showing themselves in high spirits.

【Kaeya】: Look, this is Diluc when he was young.

【Zhongli】: What a high-spirited young man. (Like)

【Alhaitham】: Geniuses are always eye-catching.

【Azhdaha】: At this age, charging into a pile of monsters like entering an empty land, with great military exploits, and being welcomed by the people when returning to the city, I dare not imagine how cool Diluc felt in his heart. (Funny)

【Tartaglia】: Oh! I understand this feeling. Becoming a Harbinger at a young age, the envious and worshipful eyes of those young people really make one feel great! (Tartaglia? Proud)

【Osial】: @【Diluc】 Now is the time to show off, hurry up and seize the opportunity!

【Diluc】: Just things from when I was young.

【Zhongli】: It seems he has matured.

【Venti】: Making a sunny and cheerful young man become silent, Dottore is the culprit! (Annoyed)

【Kaeya】: @【Baizhu】 Suggest splitting Dottore vertically in half and seeing if he can be fused together. (Smiling)

【Baizhu】: Received. I will try it after he finishes his coma. (Nodding)

Mondstadt is like spring all year round, there is no saying of spring going and autumn coming.

But when the grapes used for winemaking ripened, the people of Mondstadt knew that a festival was approaching.

There are many festivals in Mondstadt, but Gu Chen rarely participated.

He was improving his strength as he grew older.

His combat power at eight years old had already made Varka look sideways.

At nine, he swept through the entire Knights, and no one under Varka was his match.

At ten, Varka said bluntly that when he grew up a little more, even Varka would no longer be his match.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Chen was already twelve years old.

Although he was still young, thanks to daily exercise and the Body-Refining Arts, Gu Chen had a straight figure.

Although his height had not reached the level of an adult, it was already far beyond his peers.

What made Varka even more gratified was that his strength had become even more powerful.

In the sparring a few days ago, Varka barely fought Gu Chen to a draw.

Perhaps in a real life-and-death struggle, Varka could rely on enough experience to kill Gu Chen, but such a comparison had no meaning.

Because Gu Chen was only twelve years old, his room for growth was still incomparably huge, and there was infinite potential waiting to be developed...

"I haven't reached middle age yet, but I have to admit that I, the front wave, have been slapped to death on the beach by you, the back wave," Varka joked.

"Indeed." Gu Chen nodded.

Varka's mouth twitched, and he said angrily: "Can't you give people some face, kid? Just telling the truth."

"Honesty is a character," Gu Chen said seriously.

Honesty?

Anyone might be honest, but Gu Chen would not be.

Varka understood too well; after all, he was not an honest person either.

After joking for a while, Varka said seriously: "You now have enough strength to suppress some unpleasant voices. I am preparing to officially promote you to Deputy Grand Master of the Knights."

Although the position of Grand Instructor is high-level, most of the power lies in guiding the knights' cultivation.

And once he becomes Deputy Grand Master, Gu Chen's power in the Knights will be second only to Varka.

A thousand words gathered into one sentence: He has military power!

Gu Chen had no objection to this. After nodding in agreement, he said: "Diluc is very good. He is top-notch in the entire Knights. Let's promote him to Cavalry Captain as an exception."

Varka said without hesitation: "Okay, you write the report, I will sign it."

"I don't know how to write it." Gu Chen spread his hands.

Varka's mouth twitched, then he pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Gu Chen: "Copy it yourself, just change the name."
