Six meteor fireballs pierced through the Knights of Favonius' layers of interception and plummeted directly towards Mondstadt City. Despair filled the eyes of the Mondstadters in those six directions; some ran around in a panic, trying to escape, some collapsed to the ground, legs weak, and some closed their eyes, awaiting the arrival of death.
However, as time passed, the Knights of Favonius did not hear the expected explosions, and the Mondstadters, confused, opened their eyes, realizing they were still alive. They looked up.
The meteor fireballs that had been flying towards them had vanished without a trace. There was no impact with the ground, no explosion, and no one had stopped them; they had simply disappeared into thin air.
Immediately after, everyone in Mondstadt City involuntarily looked towards the Mondstadt Cathedral, the highest point in Mondstadt City.
A figure stood on the roof of the Cathedral. Although he appeared inconspicuous, he exuded an astonishing aura, like a bright beacon in the darkness, drawing all attention.
Miyashiro looked at Mondstadt City, which was ablaze everywhere beneath him, and began to rapidly form hand seals.
"Water Release: Four-fold Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu!"
The waters of Cider Lake, surrounding Mondstadt City, suddenly began to surge out of nowhere. Large amounts of lake water shot up into the sky, automatically forming awe-inspiring water dragons that charged directly towards The Dragon Ursa's position.
There wasn't just one such magnificent water dragon, but four of them, generated simultaneously from the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest of Mondstadt City.
The Dragon Ursa had never seen such a bizarre scene before and quickly spewed dragon flames towards the water dragons. However, these four water dragons could not be measured by conventional ballistic trajectories; they were like living beings, circling upwards in the sky. After dodging The Dragon Ursa's dragon flames, they went straight for Ursa.
Seeing this, The Dragon Ursa quickly retracted his dragon flames, flapped his wings, and flew higher, trying to shake them off. But these four water dragons were like parasites, sticking close behind him. No matter what high-difficulty maneuvers The Dragon Ursa performed in the air, he couldn't shake them.
The Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu unleashed by Miyashiro was like four large water pumps. The water from Cider Lake continuously transformed into parts of the water dragons under Miyashiro's manipulation, soaring into the sky, and the water level of Cider Lake rapidly decreased at a visible rate.
Miyashiro: "Sigh! This Ursa can really fly. Forget it, if I keep drawing water, the fires in Mondstadt City will probably be solved, but then there will be floods. Disperse!"
Under Miyashiro's control, the four water dragons exploded, and a torrential downpour instantly began over Mondstadt City. This heavy rain was like a heavenly blessing for the people of Mondstadt City, extinguishing multiple fires throughout the city.
Both the Knights of Favonius and the residents of Mondstadt City were deeply shaken by this miraculous act.
Some Mondstadters who didn't recognize Miyashiro directly mistook him for Lord Barbatos himself, only, wasn't Lord Barbatos the Anemo God? How could he be so adept with water too?
Their limited worldview constrained their imagination; they believed that only Lord Barbatos in Mondstadt possessed such power to perform such a miracle.
Thinking this, many Mondstadters deliberately left their homes and shelters, piously thanking Barbatos in the rain. Even though they were drenched, they didn't care, and some had even started taking out pots, bowls, and ladles to collect rainwater.
This was rainwater brought by Lord Barbatos's divine power; it must contain Lord Barbatos's divine power. If they drank it, perhaps it could prolong life and cure all illnesses!
As for the fish that fell from the sky, they were regarded as rare treasures.
Seeing that the fires in Mondstadt City had been extinguished, Miyashiro waved his hand and disappeared directly from the Mondstadt Cathedral.
Eula suddenly noticed that the space in front of her was twisting and deforming. Surprised, she quickly put some distance between them, fearing that something bad might appear. However, before Eula could retreat much, a familiar voice came from the distorted space.
"Why are you running? Wasn't this your request? I came at your invitation!"
The next moment, Miyashiro's figure appeared in front of Eula, only his expression was very grim, with a sour face.
Eula looked at Miyashiro's grim face at that moment, feeling a little guilty. She lowered her head, blushing, somewhat unable to look him in the eye.
However, Miyashiro was the one who peeked at her bathing, so why did she become the one in the wrong? Had her body been seen by him for nothing?
At this moment, Acting Grand Master Jean also sensed that there seemed to be an unusual relationship between these two. Coupled with this rebellion in Mondstadt City, many top-secret intelligence reports were provided by Eula, but Eula was not a particularly excellent intelligence operative. Where did she obtain those reports?
Miyashiro's appearance gave Acting Grand Master Jean an answer.
She quickly flew to Eula's side and immediately expressed her gratitude to Regent, "Thank you, Regent, for your assistance. On behalf of the Knights of Favonius…"
Miyashiro directly interrupted Jean, deliberately emphasizing, "Acting Grand Master Jean, don't misunderstand. I didn't act on your account. Do you remember the price for my assistance? Although it was a bit expensive, compared to the losses your Mondstadt suffered tonight, I still think it's a good deal.
Tonight's rebellion was initiated by the Lawrence Family with the help of the Fatui. Therefore, at best, this is Mondstadt's internal affair. As the Inazuma Regent, I have no right to interfere. My current, unavoidable intervention has, on the contrary, given another nation a handle to accuse me of interfering in their internal affairs."
The Knights of Favonius looked at Acting Grand Master Jean upon hearing this. Had such a thing happened?
At this moment, Acting Grand Master Jean finally remembered that the price for Miyashiro's assistance was five points of customs duty. At first, Acting Grand Master Jean felt that this would harm the collective interests of the Mondstadters and was absolutely unacceptable.
Mondstadt City had herself, the Knights of Favonius, Klee's secretly stashed Jumpy Dumpties, many skilled Adventurers from the Adventurers' Guild, and even Diluc. It should have been able to overcome the difficulties, but she didn't expect that she had still underestimated the Fatui's power.
Not only did they put immense pressure and cause casualties during the siege, but the Fatui even unscrupulously summoned three Archons. This level of combat power completely exceeded her expectations, almost causing Mondstadt City to be destroyed in an instant.
Just then, Diluc also flew over from the side. Knowing Jean as he did, he could guess most of it from her expression; she was falling back into her old habit of being overly strong.
So he spoke, "Regent, how about this? The cost of your assistance will be borne by the Dawn Winery. How does that sound?"
