Stormterror!

Chapter 8

Barbatos statue square, Amber is still explaining.

"You should remember my instruction!"

"Many people in Mondstadt don't follow the instruction and use Wind Gliders in a wrong way and end up breaking their bones every year." Amber tried to scare the two.

"Eek! That's scary!?"

Paimon was frightened after hearing this, "Fortunately, I can fly by myself."

"There is no problem if you use it right! And with me, the three-time winner of the Gliding Championship, you don't have to worry!" Amber patted her chest and said confidently.

"Gliding champion?"

"Amber, are you so famous?" Paimon said in exaggeration.

Amber seemed to remember something, and her face was a little embarrassed. She didn't want to continue this topic, so she said, "Well, in short, don't worry, let's start!"

"Lumine, while jumping from here, just spread out the wings of Wind Gliders."

Amber gave a demonstration while jumping on a circular stone pillar in the square. She spread out the wings of the Wind Glider and flew down to the fountain in front of Goth Grand Hotel. After landing, she waved towards Lumine above.

"Um..." Lumine followed her instruction and jumped down.

Swish!

She stabilized her falling body with the opening of the wings of Wind Glider and tried controlling her movements.

She slowly glided in Amber's direction.

"Lumine is really talented! You should practice more, maybe you can compete with me in the Mondstadt gliding competition." Amber tried encouraging Lumine.

"Is there another flying competition?" Paimon asked curiously.

"There are gliding championships and competitions!" Amber replied.

"Then, what is the reward for winning the first place!?"

Paimon said excitedly, "Can I participate too?"

"Ummm...." Amber didn't know to answer for a moment.

"Amber, the situation in the city seems a little chaotic." Lumine interjected their conversation.

While she was in mid-air, she saw many knights hurriedly moving towards the city. Their actions were a little different from before.

"Really? I'll find someone to check out the situation."

Amber was also a little curious.

"Who is that?" Suddenly Paimon pointed in a direction.

At the entrance of Goth Grand Hotel, there was a short brown-haired man in a black and red shirt with goggles.

The man noticed their gaze and said impatiently, "What are you looking at? Stay away from here! This place is occupied by the Fatui!"

"..."

Amber stuck out her tongue and pulled Paimon and Lumine away from the man, "Let's stay away from these guys, they're no good!"

"Humph! The Fatui just contracted the Goth Grand Hotel. It's really arrogant to declare this place as their territory. If we file a complaint against them, the knights of Favonius will take good care of them." There was an apparent hostility in her tone while saying this.

"Who are they?" Lumine was a little curious about their identities.

"The Fatui are a delegation of diplomats from the Zapolyarny Palace of Snezhnaya. They have nothing to do with us."

Amber waved her hands, "Let's continue our training. Try flying towards the fountain plaza in front of the Good Hunter restaurant, and Lumine will pass the first gliding exam."

Amber pulled Lumine to the backside of Goth Grand Hotel and glided down first.

Lumine also quickly followed.

She noticed that Good Hunter had closed its restaurant in mid-air, with all doors and windows tightly closed. Even the nearby grocery store across the street was closed down.

The very lively fountain square was silent at the moment.

It was strange.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew from outside the Cider Lake, with a bone-chilling storm.

The windmill that used to turn slowly in the city of Mondstadt was spinning rapidly due to the strong air currents, with posters, leaflets, garbage, and countless leaves rolling up.

The sky was darkening, visible to the naked eye, and dark clouds were rapidly gathering.

"A storm?" Amber put on her goggles, lying under her neck, with a tone full of disbelief, "Mondstadt is a city-state protected by the Anemo Archon. There should not be such a violent storm here."

"The wind..." Lumine suddenly clenched her fist.

Roar!!!

A loud dragon roar from far away in Stormbearer Mountains resounded in the sky above Mondstadt.

A six-winged wind dragon descended with a hurricane and waves.

Its vast size smashed countless building tile roofs.

Frightened screams of the evacuating citizens rang throughout the city, and it was soon drowned by the frantic wind current.

"Oi oi oi, it's really here!"

Outside knights headquarter, Jason, Kaeya, Jean, and Lisa sprang out.

They all looked at the Stormterror shuttling at a low altitude in Mondstadt.

Kaeya said joyfully, "Fortunately, we evacuated the citizens early."

"Why did Stormbearer suddenly attack Mondstadt?" Jean felt a little anxious.

This unexpected situation caught her off guard.

Although every knight has been arranged to evacuate the citizens, if they don't drive the dragon away fast enough, or if the Stormbearer is not calmed down as soon as possible, the damage to the city will gradually increase.

"The nearby elements are chaotic..."

Lisa touched her skin and said, "It's really easy to get irritated."

Roar!!!

When they were judging the situation.

Stormterror flew into the high sky of Mondstadt and issued a loud roar in the direction of the Anemo Archon Statue below.

It's driving the nearby wind elements!

Or blaspheming the Anemo God!

The maniac wind element power condensed together to form a black tornado, which descended from the dark clouds and enveloped the statue of Barbatos.

However, an unknown force caused the tornado to deflect and head towards the city.

"It's not good!" Jean's expression suddenly changed after seeing the situation.

"That..."

But Jean found someone to take a step ahead of her.

"I'll go first!" Jason spread out his wind glider and flew into the sky anxiously. He used his body movement to fly with the help of turbulent wind elements nearby.

This is not a game, and if an accident happens, he can't bear the consequences.

So, he has to participate in this event personally.
