Xingtie: My mission master joins the chat group.

"It might, possibly, maybe have something to do with me... but of course it doesn't matter much."

Lin Mao spoke to Funina.

The scarlet pillar of light rising from the center of Fontaine was obviously not something that should exist in the world of Teyvat.

Ksitigarbha Soul.

The only thing that can cause this effect is the unfinished Divine Key Jizo Soul, which is made from the core of the Herrscher of Corrosion.

Only its power can have such an effect.

What puzzled Lin Mao was that wasn’t the Ksitigarbha Soul staying well in Ying’s hands?

How could such a commotion suddenly occur in Fontaine?

And there was no warning before any commotion occurred.

Looking at the scarlet energy appearing in Fontaine instead of appearing in the opera house where Ying was now, Lin Mao seemed to have figured it out.

It's not that there was no warning at all, but that guy left Jizo's soul at Fontaine and went to the opera house alone to play.

The Jizo Soul was not at hand at all. Even if there was something wrong with the Jizo Soul, she would not be able to discover it, and she would not be able to tell herself in time through the chat group.

However, there is no real-time communication method in Teyvat. Even if people far away in Fontaine discovered the problem, they would not be able to contact Ying to inform her of the news.

"Alas, an unexpected disaster."

Lin Mao sighed, put his hand on his forehead, and closed his eyes slightly.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had become sharp, as if there was a burning fire in them.

"That guy Feiyuwan deserves to be punished."

He provided her with delicious food and drinks every day, promised to help her find her sister, and from time to time tried to get Sakura, who was still working for the poisonous pupa at Alicia's side, out in advance.

As a result, I let her go out for a vacation and then she did this to me.

I think you don’t want to eat fried tofu anymore!

"It is Ling who likes to eat fried tofu, not the Herrscher consciousness Feiyukumaru."

Kiana reminded him to prevent Lin Mao from making a mistake and blaming the incident on the kind-hearted Ling.

This scene was definitely the work of a self-disciplined person. If it was that little kid Ling, she wouldn't be able to make such a big noise.

It is obvious that Feiyuwan is restless and wants to play around in the different world of Fontaine.

But she probably didn't expect that Lin Mao would be here at this time.

"Don't worry, I can tell the difference."

"What do you mean?"

At this time, Funina came back to her senses from Lin Mao's answer, and her face looked a little confused.

What does it mean to say 'this matter has something to do with you, but not much'?

Lin Mao explained again, "This scene is most likely because of the Jizo Soul."

As soon as these words were spoken, Funina immediately understood that it was indeed related to him, because the Ksitigarbha Soul was his.

It doesn’t matter much because the weapon should be in Ying’s hands now.

So this matter is because of Ying?

【Ding dong! 】

Alicia:?

Ai Lixia: @Ying, what happened over there again?

Alicia saw Ying's message and asked curiously.

Alicia: Do you need my help?

Esta: Lin Mao is there now, so even if something happens it will be resolved quickly.

Alicia: That’s true.

Taking her eyes off the conversation between the two, Funina couldn't help but question Ying in the group.

Funina: @Ying, the Jizo Soul is in your hands, is this how you keep it?

Ying: Huh? Are you saying this scene is because of Jizo?

Glancing around, all the objects were covered with a layer of scarlet. Ying looked at the chat group in front of her in shock. She could not reconcile this scene with the long sword.

However, after Fu Nina's reminder, Ying finally realized the source of his sense of familiarity.

Isn't the aura emanating from the clouds that cover the sky above our heads the same as the aura emanating from the Ksitigarbha Soul Sword?

The same weirdness, the same trembling from the bottom of one's heart...

Funina: Lin Mao said that this was the influence of the Ksitigarbha spirit... I really don't understand how you could be so bold as to leave such a dangerous thing alone in Fontaine.

Ying: Well, it's not like I'm staying alone in Fontaine. Paimon is too lazy to go out, so I asked her to stay and look after the house...

Ying defended herself in the group, feeling a little guilty.

She does have an unshirkable responsibility for the changes that have taken place in Jizo's soul.

If she stayed by his side, as long as there was anything unusual with the Ksitigarbha Soul, she would be able to discover it immediately and contact Lin Mao to resolve the issue.

I would never let the situation develop to this point.

【Ding dong! 】

Alicia:?

Alicia slowly typed a question mark in the chat group.

Alicia: No, where did you leave your Paimon?

Suddenly, Ying, who looked obviously guilty, trembled violently.

Yes, Paimon is still in Fontaine, and if nothing unexpected happens... she is still the person closest to Jizo's soul!

fluorescent:! ! !

Lin Mao: Leave it to me, but after this, don’t even think about touching the Ksitigarbha Soul or any of the Divine Keys.

fluorescent:……

"Tsk~ Don't touch it then."

Ying said it stubbornly, but still said "thank you" to Lin Mao in the chat group.

Funina: My Fontaine...

Lin Mao: Not really. The power of the Herrscher of Corrosion is mainly aimed at machines, and the danger to humans itself is far less than that of other Herrschers.

For example, the Herrscher of Consciousness, who specifically targets human consciousness, is a professional in reaping lives.

"call."

Seeing Lin Mao's words, Funina breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to say some words of thanks to Lin Mao, she saw that the other party had already taken a step forward.

One step, two steps, one step, two steps, the speed became faster and faster, and finally at the edge of the cliff near the coast, he exerted force with his legs and flew directly into the sky.

The figure should have fallen to the ground according to the law of gravity, but every time his foot landed, a flame would appear out of thin air for him to step on.

The figure ran towards Fontaine at a very fast speed.

"..."

The people present stared at the flying figure with slightly dull eyes. They recognized the other person. It was the person who stood next to Funina at the trial just now and made the murderer admit his deeds with just words.

Now, under such circumstances, she rushed straight to the center of the storm regardless of the danger.

"Ahem." Finina coughed twice at this time, "Don't worry, everyone. My friend has already gone to deal with the matter. I believe it won't be long before the matter is resolved."

"During this period of time, all you need to do is wait quietly."

After all, Finina is a god, so her words are naturally more effective than those of Clorinde, the duel agent, combined with Lin Mao's back when he left just now.

An idea actually arose in the minds of the people around them.

It seems that if we just wait here for a while, this matter will be resolved.

Is this really the case?

In this situation, can she really solve it alone?

Many people had questions in their hearts, but they did not speak them out. They just listened to Funina's words and found a place to quietly wait for the outcome.

Anyway, this matter is no longer something that mortals can interfere with.

Whether they succeed or fail, they can only leave it to fate.

"Gurgling..."

"..."
