Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl
Chapter 540: New Visitors to Fontaine
More than two months passed in a flash.
All the residents of Baisong Town had been successfully relocated, and the ship to Melo Petersburg had also been built...all that was left was a test flight.
Regarding the first three projects, Funina shared the latest progress: "The magic pockets have been manufactured and distributed, the underwater breathing potions have been manufactured and distributed, and the last batch of ships is still to be delivered."
"Also," Furninna added, "so far, there has been no abnormal rise in water, but the pointer of Melo Petersburg has reached four-fifths of the way on the dashboard."
The device of Melo Petersburg can only serve as a rough reference, because the rotation speed of its pointer is not fixed. It may suddenly turn to the bottom in one day, or it may get stuck in the last distance and not move for a long time. It all depends on the level of turbulence of the original fetal sea below.
However, with it, the invisible and intangible prophecy has been transformed into something visible, and just like the revival of tens of thousands of mother trees predicted in advance, it also adds a lot of weight to the credibility of Wang Chen's words.
In the eyes of outsiders, it adds a lot of credibility to Fernina's words - although the only outsiders who know about it at present are Leosli and Navilette, which is enough.
The prophecy can come late, and there are plenty of ways to make it come on time, but it must not come early, because if it comes early it will be fatal.
So even though there were at least three months left, the time required for the relocation of Baisong Town was limited to only two months.
So although the early water rise is likely to occur after the "Young Master" is sent down to fight the Star-Devouring Whale, after all, the full water rise is caused by Ying and Navilette fighting the Star-Devouring Whale with all their might...but you can't gamble at all.
Fortunately, the situation has been stable for more than two months now, and there has been no premature flooding.
Ying is about to arrive in Fontaine.
The magic show at the Linnio Piccolo Opera House is coming up soon.
Baisong Town has been blocked off, and Leosli is making preparations in Melo Petersburg. Navilette has also been informed about the eruption of the primordial fetal sea from Melo Petersburg.
Everything is going smooth.
……
"We finally arrived after a long journey of sand and water... This is one of the ports connecting Fontaine to the outside world, Port Hailu."
"Um……"
"Hmm...? What are you thinking about?"
"Do you remember the rumors we heard before we set out? The prophecy that Fontaine will be flooded is approaching. Everyone in Fontaine is busy trying to respond to the prophecy. The whole country is filled with a depressing atmosphere of impending storm..."
Ying carefully looked at everything in her sight. The more than 300-meter high terrain difference and the waterfall that stretched for thousands of meters were indeed shocking. The majestic port built of light-colored bricks and stones and the gold-plated patterns were indeed gorgeous. The ships that used some special energy and the robots that could move autonomously were indeed novel. The advanced, industrially developed, and strange machines... these descriptions were indeed not wrong.
"But the people here don't seem to be too worried about the prophecy..."
"After all, the Water God is different from... and... uh, the previous gods." Paimon said, "As far as I know, the Water God has been living with the Fontaine people for hundreds of years since she took office, and she often appears in front of the people. Maybe it is her existence that makes everyone so peaceful."
"Water God... Although my journey is no longer just to find my brother, in order to find the truth about what he experienced, the Water God is still an existence that cannot be missed."
"That makes sense. With Nashida's help, we did get a lot of useful information."
Ying said with a hint of worry: "But Nashida also said that the current water god of Fontaine is a guy with a 'strong personality'. I don't know if he can get along with her."
Paimon also started thinking: "Yeah, what does it mean to be 'very unique'... Hey, there's someone chatting over there, why don't we go and ask them!"
...
"The character of the water god. Our god's words and behaviors are sometimes exaggerated, but she is still very likable." Antoine, a security inspector at Hailu Port, said.
"Pfft..." Paimon couldn't help laughing. "This is the first time I've heard that people's impression of gods is 'likable'?"
"That's the truth. You'll understand once you actually meet Lady Furninna, the goddess of water." Antoine shrugged.
"Oh, yeah, by the way, if we want to meet this lovely water god, what should we do?"
"Isn't that easy? If you want to meet Lady Funina, just go to the Opikle Opera House. She often hangs out in the opera house. This can be said to be her greatest hobby."
"Opera house?" Paimon asked. "Does the water god like to watch performances?"
"Watching performances... That's right. The opera house has real dramas. If you're lucky, you can even see Lady Funina perform on stage. But the opera house also has 'trials'. As outsiders, you may not know that the name of the Fontaine Court of Justice is 'Opicla Opera House', or simply the Opera House."
Ying frowned slightly: "You treat the trial as an opera?"
Paimon was quick to respond as always: "Isn't this too frivolous? Uh... I'm not questioning the rules of Fontaine, but I have the impression that a trial should be a very serious matter..."
"It doesn't matter. Many outsiders feel the same way." Port Officer Vina explained briefly, "But we just don't want to waste the touching stories behind those cases."
Then she continued, "As for the seriousness of the trial, we have the absolutely fair supreme judge, Mr. Villette, and the judicial body created by God, the 'Cardinal of the Oracle'. With this double insurance, false and wrongful convictions are almost extinct in Fontaine."
"As expected of a country of 'justice'... there is even such a thing as a judicial institution? I really want to see it."
Ying reasonably speculated, "Since the trial is being held at the Opiquette Opera House, the judicial organ should be at the opera house, and the water god might also be at the opera house. If we are lucky, we can meet them all at once, so why not make the opera house our first stop when we come to Fontaine?"
"Wait, I feel like you guys want to talk to Lady Funina face to face?" Vina reminded, "If you want an audience with the Water God, it's relatively difficult. You have to make an appointment a long time in advance."
"Reservation..." Ying nodded, "It would be nice to visit the opera house during the reservation period. Thank you anyway."
"Well, there is one more thing. Since you two are new here, you should have heard that Fontaine is about to be submerged, right? For your personal safety, please be sure to carry three underwater breathing potions with you during your trip to Fontaine. This is my responsibility as a harbor master. Please accept these potions."
Taking three potions that were green like seaweed, Paimon asked curiously, "Is this how Fontaine will deal with the prophecy?"
"Yes, this alchemical potion was specially developed by Lady Funina. A few days ago, she also issued a related decree: starting from this month, people who live in Fontaine must always carry a magic bag and three underwater breathing potions. Even outsiders who are active in Fontaine must carry three underwater breathing potions with them."
Ying also put away the three potions, exchanged glances with Paimon, and said, "It turned out that this method was used to solve the problem. It feels so approachable... I am becoming more and more curious about what kind of god the Water God is."
