After some exchanges, Eric left the big room confused.

Later, everyone who was told the truth by Niyu had their jaws dislocated.

Heinz suffered the worst, dislocating his leg twice.

The first time was when I learned that everyone had somehow traveled through more than 2600 years and arrived at the ruins of the Wind Dragon before the founding of New Mondstadt, which was the territory of the Demon God of Gale, Diekalapian. The second time was when he learned that Eric Lawrence, who saved them, was most likely his ancestor from unknown generations.

After learning this, Niyu took a closer look at Eric.

Not to mention, after taking off his heavy fur hat and sweeping away the snow and ice from his beard and eyebrows, Eric actually looked pretty good.

With chisel-like facial lines, blue pupils, and long pale blond hair, the basic conditions can score at least 80 points. That is, his hair and beard are unkempt. If he can call a reliable teacher Tony to help clean up, he will probably not lose. To Chris Hemsworth (Marvel’s Thor).

With such good genes, it’s no wonder that she could produce a descendant with a figure like a supermodel like Youra.

From Eric's mouth, everyone learned some basic information about the Gale Wind Capital.

The Lone King of the Tower and the Demon God of Gale, Diekalapian, is a rather aloof Demon God. He plays an autistic style and rarely leaves his Storm Tower that reaches the sky. He only maintains the Wall of Sighs during fixed periods of time.

Basically, no one is allowed in or out of the Gale King's capital. Only the seven tribes responsible for guarding the border, known as the "Wall Guards", can freely enter and exit the Wall of Sighs. These tribes need to frequently enter and leave the Wall of Sighs to drive away monsters and enemies approaching the royal capital, and cut down trees and bring them back to the royal capital for use by the residents. Their status in the Gale Wind Capital is equivalent to that of military nobles.

Leaving the border area where the wall guards were stationed and continuing towards the center of the valley, you can see large flat fields. Most of the people of the Solitary Tower King live and breed in this area and make a living by farming.

Further forward into the center of the valley is the urban area of ​​Gale King's capital, the Central King's City. Residents engaged in craftsmanship built residential areas around the Storm Tower. The buildings here are all made of solid granite to resist the strong wind erosion from the Storm Tower.

The Storm Priests, who are responsible for assisting the Lone King in the Tower to rule the people, live in the area closest to the Storm Tower. They are the only humans allowed to enter the Storm Tower. They are the bridge between ordinary people and gods and have the highest status.

All in all, this is a rather primitive governance structure, a four-level structure of priests-military nobles-urban craftsmen-peasants, and a circle-like habitat layout.

While everyone was discussing the current situation, Niyu found Ying, "Are you the blond traveler who posted missing person notices everywhere? I heard that you also have a flying pet, where is it?"

Ying didn't seem to be very good at chatting, so she thought for a while before replying: "Paimon, she passed out."

"Hmm? Can you explain it in detail?"

Ying showed a worried look, "We entered the forest, and Paimon suddenly said that she felt something was wrong and wanted me to leave immediately, but I had a mission, so I didn't agree. Then we suddenly appeared in the ice and snow, and from then on Paimon has been unconscious..."

"Can you take me to see her?"

"Ah."

After some inspection, Niwa confirmed that Paimon was fine and seemed to be asleep. As for what caused this situation, he had some guesses, but he was not sure.

"In this case, including her, all 26 missing persons have been found. Next, let us think carefully about how to return to Mondstadt through 2600 years of time from here." Niwa smiled at Yingying. He stretched out his hand and said, "By the way, my name is Niyu, and I am the current guardian of the east wind in Mondstadt."

Ying hesitated for a moment, then reached out and shook his hand gently, "I've heard of you."

"I believe your reputation will soon be more widespread than mine." Niwa said politely.

Ying tilted her head, looking puzzled.

----------

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, everyone found that the light outside the window gradually became brighter. When I went out, I saw that in the center of the distant valley, the top of the storm tower was shining with light like the sun.

Niwa, who had seen the Great Sun Goyo, had no reaction to this. After all, it was just sunlight reflected by a magic lens. In terms of technical content, it could not be compared with the completely artificial Great Sun Goyo. But others were quite surprised by this. After all, there is nothing in Mondstadt that can be called a man-made wonder except for the statue of the God of Wind.

Many old aristocratic labor reform prisoners even murmured privately, why did the people of Old Mondstadt start a rebellion against the lonely king of the high tower? Compared with the current technological level displayed by the Gale King's capital, today's Mondstadt can be said to be a step backwards!

Shortly after dawn, handsome Eric came to the big house where everyone gathered.

"The patriarch wants to see your leader." Eric's eyes wandered among the crowd, "Can any of you speak on behalf of everyone?"

Niwa took the initiative to stand up, but Heinz was about to object when Yura pushed him back to his seat.

Eric nodded slightly when he saw this, "Then please follow me."

Under the early morning light, the grass and trees are still covered with dew, but the villagers of this village have already picked up their farm tools and walked towards the distant fields.

As wall protectors, the Lawrence tribe lived a life of half farming and half hunting. The wall protector team could obtain prey from outside the wall from time to time, but the main source of food was the fields.

Niwa deliberately walked into the farmland beside the road to carefully check the growth of the crops, and concluded that the yield was definitely not as high as it would be after 2600.

Under the leadership of Eric, Niyu walked all the way into the center of the village. Judging from the number of visible houses and the number of laborers, this village belonging to the Lawrence tribe is home to approximately 3,000 people.

Niyu's heart moved slightly, and he asked tentatively: "Eric, how much land and population does the Lawrence tribe have?"

"Well...the cultivated land is about 10,000 acres. I'm not sure about the population. There are about two to three thousand people, right?"

Niyu asked again: "How many people are there in the entire Gale King Capital?"

Eric shook his head and said: "I'm just a Wall Guard captain, so I don't know much about this issue. But since I became a Wall Guard, our tribe alone has taken in at least two to three thousand human wanderers, right?"

While they were talking, the two of them had already entered the residence of the tribal leader, a large house located in the center of the village.

The leader of the Lawrence tribe wore a simple robe, holding a gold scepter in his hand, and a wolf tooth crown symbolizing status on his head. He was completely dressed for a formal occasion. Clearly, this was the tribe leader showing his respect to Niwa, indicating that he viewed this meeting as a formal meeting of equals.

"Good day, traveler from afar. I am the leader of the Lawrence tribe and the patriarch of the Lawrence family, Maximian Lawrence."

Patriarch Lawrence, who was the first to salute, did not receive a response from Niyu, because at this time he was already in a huge shock!

He has seen this old man with gray beard and hair before him! He is the one who met Patriarch Gunnhild in the historical images! The Lawrence patriarch who intends to overthrow the rule of the lonely king of the tower!
