Amber's grandfather single-handedly established the Scout Knights, although now only Amber remains as the sole Scout Knight. Nevertheless, she embodies the true spirit of the Knights of Favonius.

Moreover, everyone within the Knights adores Amber; she is practically the second most beloved member after Klee. Like a blazing fire, her warmth and unwavering enthusiasm endear her to all.

Outside of her duties, Amber has saved numerous individuals, often bringing back lost souls to safety. Even within Mondstadt, people willingly sell food to Eula from the Lawrence Clan, solely out of respect for Amber—a testament to how highly regarded she is. Her infectious passion and vivacity have undoubtedly charmed countless Mondstadters, evoking inexplicable fondness towards this enthusiastic girl.

Contrary to expectations, instead of criticism, an overwhelming wave of support flooded in for Amber:

"Are you suggesting Amber is a traitor? Did a wild boar knock some sense out of your brain?"

"How could anyone malign such a warm and helpful girl? Do you think we're that gullible?"

"Support Amber! Don't let her be falsely accused."

Lumine and Paimon had just completed their commissions and were enjoying a delightful lunch. Paimon took out her phone again, eager to check how her uploaded video was faring.

"Eh, Traveler, someone's bullying Amber!" Paimon noticed that within the live stream comments, someone accused Amber of being a traitor.

"Where?" Lumine, puzzled, couldn't believe it since Amber was always so enthusiastic and kind towards both her and Paimon.

Moreover, they were "picked up" by Amber upon arriving in Mondstadt, naturally fostering a high level of fondness for her.

"Hmph, daring to bully my friend Amber? Just wait till I give you a nasty nickname!" Paimon huffed angrily; after all, Amber had treated her to delicious Scout Knight grilled steak before.

"You brainless Hilichurls, how dare you bully Amber!"

"Aren't you the Captain? Even you're supporting Amber now, ha ha..."

"Captain didn't invite us when starting this rally! Let me go first - 'chicken, you're too fly'!"

"Cough, cough, we're here to support Amber, not start new chants."

Lumine looked at Paimon, surprised. How did she know so many people, and why do they call her 'Captain'?

After a barrage of support, the individual who attempted to smear Amber's reputation vanished without a trace. However, some still wanted to criticize Lin Feng but refrained due to fear of their accounts being banned.

"Take another hour off for rest; we'll be working overtime tonight!" Eula, gazing at these adorable Knights of Favonius, couldn't help but slightly raise her hand and announce calmly.

The subsequent mission against monsters proceeded smoothly, with no unexpected incidents occurring. Through Eula's actions, everyone gradually gained a better understanding of her character.

"Well, that concludes today's live stream! If you have any requests for future streams, feel free to leave them in the comments on the upcoming video!" Lin Feng waved cheerfully towards the camera, then realized it felt incomplete.

He gently took Eula's hand and waved again, considering it as a farewell gesture!

Eula, feeling slightly embarrassed, swiftly withdrew her hand, thinking she could never act so childishly!

"Hehe, don't worry, I'm sure everyone will understand!" Lin Feng smiled reassuringly at Eula, highly satisfied with the day's filming.

"What's for dinner tonight?" Lin Feng asked with a grin.

"Moon pies!" Eula replied softly before entering the kitchen.

Lin Feng recalled that he indeed had moon pies for lunch, and remembered the little chef mentioning they were Eula's creation—perhaps the original recipe tasted even better!

Respecting Eula's space, Lin Feng didn't enter the kitchen but instead launched PUBG, a game he used to enjoy immensely.

After a brief matchmaking wait, Lin Feng entered the game lobby.

Suddenly, a dark figure approached him with fists raised.

"Hey, buddy, jump with me this round, I'll take you to victory!" A familiar voice echoed in Lin Feng's mind, and without much hesitation, he guessed who it was.

"Venti?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

"Heh, am I getting that famous now? Ha ha..." Venti chuckled happily, clearly pleased by having another small fan.

"Uh...I'm the guy who sold you your phone!" Lin Feng reminded him, feeling somewhat helpless.

"Oh!" Venti nodded, genuinely grateful to Lin Feng for providing such great opportunities to earn money for his wine purchases.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you this match!" Venti assured Lin Feng with a grin.

"Alright!" Lin Feng politely agreed, but as an experienced PUBG player, he didn't actually need Venti's protection.

"Follow my lead, I'm jumping now!" Venti quickly shouted, successfully convincing all four to join her scheme.

"I'll take you guys for some safe looting!" With a chuckle, Venti led the group skydiving towards their destination.

Soon, they landed in a desolate area with only one restroom visible. Indeed, it was incredibly safe, albeit devoid of any loot or opponents.

Venti rushed ahead and excitedly called out, "Hurry over here, there are great items!"

The other three players sprinted towards the small restroom, only to be dumbfounded upon entering.

They saw Venti's controlled character holding a P92 pistol. The four exchanged puzzled looks - how were these 'great items'?

"Everyone, crouch down and close the door; this way, we can easily increase our rank points!" Venti smiled mysteriously, as if uncovering a hidden secret.

Upon hearing this, the other two players immediately scoffed and ran towards the nearby housing area.

"Hey, don't leave! This strategy is called 'encircling cities from the countryside.' Haven't you read about it?" Venti tried to persuade them, but his teammates scoffed and sprinted towards P City.

Unfortunately, perhaps due to following Venti's misguided advice, they arrived too late and ended up as boxes...

"Haha, just like I said, this method is much safer!" Venti chuckled smugly, clearly relishing their misfortune for not heeding his instructions.

The live stream audience couldn't bear to watch any longer. What happened to the fearless Boxing Champion who relied on brawn and fists?

"Broadcaster, can you at least move a bit?!"

Compliantly, Venti shifted slightly to one side.

Even Lin Feng had reached his limit; resolutely, he pushed open the bathroom door and headed towards another nearby restroom. Sharing a single toilet with two people was far from comfortable!

Shortly after, Lin Feng decided it was time to showcase his impressive skills to everyone. He quickly encountered a bot trying to break down his bathroom door, dispatching it effortlessly with a frying pan. After looting its supplies, he swiftly moved towards the sounds of gunfire echoing in the distance.
