Alas...Although she lost face in front of Lei Dianying, she won in the end.
Baalzebub, I've reached the other side!
Just as he was thinking this, the carriage suddenly stopped, and then Lei Dianying lifted the curtain and walked in.
"Shadow?" Fang Yun was stunned.
Lei Dianyi looked him over, his purple eyes thoughtful, but he still couldn't see the problem.
She shook her head. "Nothing. I just had some ideas about the portal research and wanted to discuss it with Buyer."
She didn't know that during the demon-replenishing ritual, the Great Compassion Tree King was irrigated by Fang Yun and thus got rid of the pollution of the abyss. Fang Yun, because he realized the divinity of the World Tree and had some understanding of the powerful vitality of grass elemental creatures, Fang Yun's physical fitness was also enhanced to a certain extent.
Although the extent of the enhancement is not very large, Fang Yun is now indeed "the more Superman, the stronger he is."
If he could absorb Lanaro's clone this time, Fang Yun estimated that his biggest physical shortcoming would be made up. If he could master more laws of [Creation], his physique would continue to improve.
While speaking, Ying was sitting next to Fang Yun... Actually, she had not originally planned to come, and wanted to wait until she arrived at the embassy in Fontaine, but the general always felt that something was not right, so he asked her to come over first to see the situation.
Honestly, Ying felt that the general was making a big deal out of nothing.
Hey, General, General, I, the account owner, haven’t even logged in yet, why are you, the substitute player, so anxious?
Really, when I ejaculate my second sperm, can I miss your third sperm?
To take a step back, if the ranking location is placed in Yi Xin Pure Land, it will be no problem for her and the general to reach level 2 together, since the two of them can share senses anyway.
Seeing the general's aggressive attitude towards Boyer, Ying felt that it was unbecoming of a lady.
I have the advantage now, why should I chase them all down? At this time, I should learn micromanagement like the Son of God.
If you and I, sisters, come together, how can we defeat each other?
But since she was here, she wanted to see Buyer, so she looked at Fang Yun and asked, "Should we go to the world of mind images, or call Buyer out?"
"Let her come out to talk. She hasn't been to Teyvat for a long time." Fang Yun summoned out the Great Kind Tree King.
In fact, he probably saw through Ying's thoughts. If Ying asked proactively, Fang Yun would tell the truth, but the problem was that Ying didn't speak, and Fang Yun hadn't figured out what to say.
He can't just say that he plays Nesserbuyer every day, right?
Fang Yun is still just a gold player after all, and he still needs to explore how to enable the double-row mode.
The Great Tree King felt that Ying's rank was too high and he could only win by stealing the enemy's base. He had no intention of a head-on confrontation, so after coming out, he took the initiative to greet Ying.
Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the cold and queen-like purple-haired lady and the intellectual and gentle white-haired lady living in harmony.
Ying was very pleased with the King of the Great Compassion Tree's submission. She asked with concern, "Buyer, haven't you recovered your strength? Why do you still look a little weak?"
That's right, after suffering billions of dollars in damage, how could she not be weak? Her knees even hurt a little!
Although he thought so in his heart, the Great Compassion Tree King remained calm on the surface: "Weak? Maybe it's because I'm worried about Xumi. I was discussing with Fang Yun how to deal with the situation in Xumi."
Deal with Xumi?
Ying was not surprised. Fang Yun had told her this before, and considering the future strategic layout of the Four-Nation Alliance, Fang Yun would definitely make a trip to Xumi and Mond.
Since Buyer has already humbled himself and now proposes to let Fang Yun take over Xumi, Ying doesn't mind cooperating in the "Buyer borrows Fang Yun" story.
But why does it feel a little wrong?
Ying's decision made the general in the Pure Land frown even more tightly, and she became more determined in her previous idea... It was too tiring to help Ying to gain points, so it would be better for her to finish it herself first.
But business was more important, and Ying had already acknowledged that Buyer was qualified to work with her, so she didn't dwell on it too much and went straight to talking about her own doubts about the portal technology.
"Buyer, I have carefully studied the knowledge you gave me. Although the Abyss Cult uses the earth veins as nodes to arrange the coordinates, they have the support of the Abyss behind them. If we want to reproduce, we need to solve the energy problem ourselves."
"Also, I can try to make anchor points, but setting anchor points requires understanding the direction of the ley lines, so it's up to you to figure it out."
Ying indeed has the genes of a scientist. After only a few days of acquiring this knowledge, he had a preliminary idea.
The Great Ci Tree King was also somewhat surprised at Ying's talent, which reminded her of Apep... However, Apep's research was more dangerous and radical, and was in two different directions from Ying's.
"The earth veins are the roots of the World Tree. Although I am no longer the World Tree of Teyvat, I still have some authority. It is not difficult for me to control the flow direction of the earth veins." The Great Compassion Tree King explained his own situation frankly. "In addition, the Lanaro clan can also do this. When Fang Yun goes to Xumi, he can ask them to help arrange it."
Fang Yun nodded slightly. This was a relatively large project. The Abyss Cult had Abyss Mages in various places. If their camp wanted to create an anchor point to connect the four countries, it would be too slow to rely on the Great Compassion Tree King alone.
Ying also knew this, but still frowned slightly: "This matter should be done as soon as possible. When we get to Fontaine, you and I will try to make an anchor point. Fontaine should be able to get the materials I need."
"Why are you so anxious?" The Great Compassion Tree King was a little puzzled.
Ying's eyes were somewhat deep: "Because... I think Zhidong will not be at peace. Don't forget that the Heart of Thunder God is still in our hands. The Heart of Grass God will be targeted sooner or later. It's better to prepare the teleportation anchor point as soon as possible so that everyone can take timely measures when something happens."
Although she didn't know why the Ice God was obsessed with the products made from the remains of the Third Adventers, she could see that the Ice God would stop at nothing to achieve her plan.
The Great Compassionate Tree King nodded upon hearing this. This was an inevitable conflict between the two camps.
As for learning from Zhongli to exchange benefits with the Ice God through trading?
This is possible, but the Great Ci Tree King knows Ying's character. Inazuma was betrayed so badly by Zhidong, there is no way she would forgive the Ice God. If Inazuma really had no improvement, Ying might have endured it for the sake of Inazuma and her people, but now his camp has the advantage, how could Ying make a deal with the Ice God?
The same is true for King Dacishu herself. As the ruler of Xumi, how could she be willing to swallow this when she saw the Kingdom of Zhidong conducting human experiments on Xumi unscrupulously and even trying to capture her relative Lannaro?
She had no objection to the Ice God dealing with Tianli, but it was another matter that the Kingdom of Winter used the name of ideals to deceive Mondstadt, Inazuma, and Xumi.
Fang Yun is now organizing a four-nation alliance to prevent such a situation from happening again. If Zhidong wants to cause trouble again, then he can expect revenge from multiple top demon gods. It is only natural for the victims to take revenge on Zhidong.
But after Ying said this, Fang Yun suddenly thought: "If that's the case, Ying, why did you leave the Heart of Thunder God with Inazuma?"
Yes, because the power of the Heart of Thundergod had been exhausted after he and Ying traveled through time, Fang Yun and Ying did not bring the Heart of God with them on this trip, and handed it over to the Son of God for safekeeping.
"I'm just creating an opportunity for Zhidong... Don't they like to find loopholes in the general?" Ying snorted coldly, "You told me before that Inazuma's national strength is not enough to go to war with Zhidong, but if they come here to seek death, then it's not our fault."
Fang Yun then realized that the reason Ying came out with him this time was actually to prepare for an information gap with Zhidong: The Ice God would never have thought that Fang Yun could use the sacred cherry tree as a coordinate and return to Inazuma with Ying instantly through teleportation.
With Ying's upgraded combat power, plus Fang Yun and the Great Compassion Tree King...even if the top three executives go out together, they will have to leave their lives behind.
I wonder, when did Ying become so smart?
Looking at Fang Yun's surprised eyes, Ying felt proud.
Humph, brat, if I can't defeat you, then I, the smart guy, am not smart anymore!
.....
On the other side, Fontaine.
Next to Lu Jingquan, Funina was being interviewed by a reporter from Steambird News.
She was still wearing a blue dress, but what was different from usual was that this time she had a dark blue sword on her waist.
"Lady Funina, yesterday you personally executed Vashé, the murderer of the serial missing girls case, here, and implemented the justice of Fontaine. What do you think?" The reporter looked serious and took out a pen and paper, ready to take notes at any time.
Behind her, there were many people from Fontaine who came to Loujingquan to visit and pray. They all looked at Funina with anticipation.
After all, this was the first execution in Fontaine's history, and it was carried out by the Lord of Water himself, which would leave a significant mark in history books.
however.
Facing the excited people, Funina just shook her head: "I do have some feelings, but to be honest, I'm not very happy."
"Why? Isn't it the implementation of Fontaine justice to execute such a heinous criminal?"
“I’ve heard people say that justice may be late, but it will never be absent. However, in my opinion, justice late is justice absent!”
Fininna's fingers gently brushed the blade of the sword. She looked at the reporter with a determined look: "In the name of the God of Water, I will make Fontaine a truly just country... Tomorrow, I will also receive Emperor Ming Shen and General Raiden here, and let them appreciate the just judgment of Fontaine."
The field suddenly fell into silence, and then countless cheers broke out.
If before, Funina was only welcomed like a big star, but recently, Funina, who paid attention to the class contradictions in Fontaine and implemented justice, made them truly feel the gaze of God.
however.
In the accused's room of the Opikley Opera House, the people who were about to be tried, that is, the group of Fatui captured by Fang Yun last time, all had gloomy faces when they heard the cheers from outside.
Selling Les and conducting human experiments in Xumi, these crimes might have only resulted in exile to Melo Petersburg in the past, but now... they are not sure whether the Water God will impose the death penalty again.
"Damn, this is so pathetic. It's all the fault of that bitch Alechino! If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have to sell Les!"
"And as an executive officer, she actually ignored us! We were put on trial in public for conducting human experiments, which was a disgrace to Winter Solstice! Is Alecino crazy? Doesn't she care about Winter Solstice's honor at all?"
Captain Borg listened calmly to the hysterical venting of his team members, he knew it was useless.
Arlecchino is the Wolf of Fontaine!
But he was also unwilling to give up like this... Why? They were just following orders to conduct human experiments, but they were chased by General Lan from the rainforest to the desert and then to Fontaine, and were driven out of the stronghold by Arecino. Did the Fatui deserve to die?
"Perhaps, we can't escape death, but I won't let you Fontaine have an easy time either."
Borg's eyes were deep. Since the God of Water wanted to play a game of just judgment, he would play it with Fontaine... He wanted to accuse Emperor Narukami Fang Yun of brutally killing all the fools in Inazuma!
He wanted to see what verdict the impartial cardinal would give.
The Omniscient One: Chapter 5: Fukaros: I feel good now (K)
Furninda had no idea that this group of captured Fatui were actually trying to disrupt the verdict and destroy the relationship between Inazuma and Fontaine in revenge.
According to the information she had learned, the executive officer [Servant] had sent a letter to Mo Mang Palace two days ago, expressing support for the trial of this group of Fatui from the Xumi branch.
Regardless of whether [Servant] has a different attitude towards human experiments from other executives, as the head of the Fontaine branch, her statement means that these people have no chance at all.
To put it nicely, the revenge of these fools is a last-ditch effort; to put it bluntly, it is a desperate move.
However, considering that General Lei Dian and his apprentice would be invited to observe the trial, Funina was still quite concerned. She planned to summon the relevant persons in charge of the special patrol team and the security team for further questioning after the interview to ensure that she was fully aware of the case.
Amid the continuous clicking sounds of the camera, Funina answered some questions such as "If the diplomatic envoys were to be publicly tried, would it have an impact on the diplomacy of Fontainebleau and Winter?"
If it were in the past, when faced with such a sensitive issue, Funina would not dare to speak casually. After going back to rest, she would still be trembling with fear for being discovered.
But now...she is no longer the rookie Funina!
Lan Fangyun's consciousness remained in her body after he went offline yesterday. Coupled with the divine weapon "Water Torture Sword" in his hand, Funina laughed loudly and entered the realm of the innate pufferfish holy body again!
Yes, Lan Fangyun herself possesses four forms: water, rock, fire, and grass. Now she has the Water Torture Sword, so she is now a five-core Finina!
"Being a diplomatic envoy is not an excuse to do whatever they want. If they commit a crime, they are now criminals instead of envoys!"
"Since the Kingdom of Winter has sent them out to carry out the mission, they must be prepared for failure and being held accountable by other countries. There is no such thing as taking advantage of others."
"During the Mondstadt dragon disaster, Zhidong tried to take over the city defense by force. He also used conscription as an excuse to conduct human experiments on the Knights, interfered with Inazuma's internal affairs to provoke war, established a human laboratory in Xumi, and now has unsealed the power of the demon in Liyue. On behalf of Fontaine, I strongly condemn this."
Image: "Comic story of Mond being tricked", Location: "Images/"
"Zhidong? If you dare to attack, you will be defeated! The son of Fontaine, you have nothing to fear in the world!"
"Of course, since Miss Alechino of [Buffati Mansion] took office as the executive officer, she has taken the initiative to assist the Momang Palace with urban planning and other policies, and has helped the people of Fontaine free of charge. I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of Fontaine."
As always, Funina responded in an cadenced tone, which not only demonstrated her tough attitude and condemned all the overbearing behaviors of Zhidong during this period, but also saved face for the "Fontaine Wolf" servant. The overall response was very appropriate, showing the style of a leader of a country.
Her speech made the people of Fontaine very emotional.
"Fumen!"
"Those who doubt Funina are really ridiculous. She has protected Fontaine for five hundred years and even supported the Fontaine Academy of Sciences to constantly monitor and study the changes in Fontaine's water level and quality. How could she be indifferent to the prophecy?"
In the past, Funina often attended diplomatic occasions. Although her etiquette was impeccable, she always lacked some firmness and toughness. Now, Funina makes everyone feel at ease.
In addition to the change in power, it was also because she truly regarded the Water God as her own life experience. She no longer humbly regarded herself as an insignificant actor, nor would she hide in a corner and cry helplessly.
She is the water goddess recognized by Lan Fangyun and countless people of Fontaine. She is the queen of all waters, all directions, all peoples and all laws!
Let confidence shine!
Funina was so confident that she was almost about to drill her temple with her fingers!
But as she blew the trumpet, Funina discovered that these Fontaine citizens who loved to watch the fun were even more outrageous than herself.
"Lady Furnina, you mentioned yesterday that you can judge the gods, and Inazuma's master and apprentice of General Raiden will arrive in Fontaine tomorrow. Are you inviting them to watch the trial in order to stage a duel between gods?"
"Wait, Lady Fininna, you said that winter is coming. Do you want to challenge the Ice God together?"
No, ladies and gentlemen, do you really want to see my black and white photo hanging at the entrance of Mo Mang Palace?
Funina secretly groaned in her heart. After being reminded by Fang Yun, she had some idea in her mind. She looked like a five-core Funina, but she didn't know how to use her strength. It was okay if she met a weaker opponent, but if she met an expert, wouldn't she be giving away her core to the opponent if they fought?
But... there can't really be someone who can lose with five cores, right?
At this moment, she was somewhat glad that Charlotte was gone. If she had run into Charlotte, the front-page headline of tomorrow's Steam Bird newspaper would probably be "Funina's Eternal Autocracy".
Fininna maintained a polite smile and said calmly, "Fontaine is a country that longs for peace. General Lei Dian came with good intentions. How could we be so rude? Inviting her to witness the trial of the Fatui is only to consolidate the friendship between the two countries."
"Not judging gods... In other words, you are going to judge the Mingshen Emperor Fang Yun?"
"What? Lady Funina wants to judge Fang Yun!"
"What? Pass it on! Lady Funina wants to interrogate Fang Yun in the basement where there is no signal!"
Funina opened her mouth slightly, sighed, gave the reporters a warning look, and said, "Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity." Then she quickly left amid the cheers of the people.
