The golden tree standing tall in the world of Teyvat - Chapter 354
c350 Eternal prison
Funina didn’t know about the conspiracy between Liusu and Ying, but seeing the high spirits of the people of Fontaine below, she couldn’t help but pretend to be calm and laughed.
“Ahahaha! That’s right, stay calm. My people who believe in me always like to shout with the spectators. It’s really loud, and I will tolerate these disturbances.”
“Just think of it as a reward. As you can imagine, I am indeed determined to have an epic duel with this foreign traveler!”
After listening to Funina’s words, Ying couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Liusu next to her.
“Go, I’ll help you.”
After saying that, Liusu snapped her fingers, and an invisible wave came out from her hands. Wherever the wave passed, except for Fu Xuan and Ying beside her and Funina standing on the box on the high platform, everyone else seemed to be stopped in time, keeping the action of the last second.
Silence, everything around was quiet, the sound of wind and water disappeared at this moment.
“You, you.” Funina pointed at Liusu, her fair face full of fear.
She recalled that she had met a woman with snow-haired hair like the one in front of her last time. The other party and a life filled with unknown water elements tortured her for an afternoon. Not only that, a little girl in red also participated in this action that was a great shame for her.
“Well, the authority stolen last time seems to be somewhat useful. Time stop is really a good skill.”
“Did you steal it last time?” Ying asked in surprise.
“It was when Inazuma Shadow and General Raiden were dueling last time.”
“Ah! I want to learn it too!”
“Forget about your words. Set a small goal first, surpass the first throne. Before that, defeat the gods blocking the way in front of you.”
Ying: “???”
Are you sure this is a small goal? I’m just an ordinary person, not a cheater like you!
Although he complained in his heart, Ying still drew his sword and approached Funina step by step.
“Wait, wait a minute!” Funina looked at Ying walking towards her and shouted hurriedly.
“What’s wrong?”
“This, this is a battle with gods, aren’t you afraid?” Funina said, “How about you think about it again? If you want to give up, I don’t mind.”
“Don’t think about it, gods who block the way, take my sword!”
Ying said, and took a run-up and jumped high, and the sword in his hand burned with golden flames, and chopped down at Funina on the stage.
Funina: “!!!”
Why don’t you listen to advice? !
Seeing the golden sword blade getting closer and closer to her, and Liusu who seemed to be smiling at her in the audience, Funina’s thoughts flashed in an instant, and then she squatted down with her head in her arms in the shocked eyes of Ying.
Ying: “???”
Fu Xuan: “???”
Liusu: “Tsk, expected.”
The scene was still for a while, Ying looked at Funina with a stiff face, squatting and holding her head, she didn’t expect this result, it was over before the fight.
Funina is not stupid, she knows that with her many years of experience. In this situation, if she resisted, it would make the criminals more excited.
The face of the girl with snow-haired hair below was almost the same as the one she had seen before, which made her understand that the other party was a god more powerful than herself. The most important thing was that the other party had no ill will towards her, but just wanted to beat her up like last time.
The time stop in front of her could explain everything. The other party controlled all of her people, and it was also to preserve her dignity as a god.
Thinking of this, Funina surrendered directly. As long as I surrendered quickly, you can’t hit me!
“Liu Su, the gods of this world are too…”
Fu Xuan’s face was tangled, looking at Funina who was still squatting on the stage with her head in her hands and trembling, which simply refreshed her cognition of gods.
“It’s okay, Fukalos is very smart, so it’s meaningless to bully her again.” Liu Su shook her head and said with a smile.
“Get up.” Ying said to Funina in front of her.
“I won’t!”
Ying: “.”
Ying sighed and said, “Get up, I won’t duel with you.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
“Huh, you said it earlier.” Hearing this, Funina breathed a sigh of relief and slowly stood up.
Just as she was about to say something, snap!
Funina covered her back with both hands, blushing and staring at Ying who was looking at her with a teasing look in front of her.
“Didn’t you say that you won’t duel?”
“Yes, but I didn’t say I can’t hit you.”
“You!”
Ying chuckled and returned to Liusu’s side.
Seeing this, Liusu snapped her fingers again, and the time stop around them was lifted, and people started moving again.
Because of her image in front of the people of Fontaine, Funina could only grit her teeth and swallow her anger, so that she had to hold back the complaints she wanted to make. Her little face turned red, not because of shame but because of anger.
“What do you want to do, traveler? Are you going to offend the gods in front of the public?” When she came to her senses, she saw Ying standing with a sword, and Clorinde stopped him.
Ying: “.”
“.Ahem, well, it’s okay, Clorinde, I admire his courage. There are not many people who dare to draw swords against the gods. Obviously, he is a real fighter.” Facing Ying’s strange eyes, Funina certainly knew what the other party was thinking, so she pretended to be generous and answered.
“But unfortunately, in this era, people are only more and more eager for excitement, and a simple fight of force cannot satisfy those hungry souls!”
“That’s true, just fighting seems a bit boring.”
“There are always criminals on Ilia Island who ask for a duel to defend their reputation. I am really tired of seeing a duel of force.”
After listening to the words of the people of Fontaine below the stage, Funina put one hand behind her back and said proudly: “See, so… let me, as the god of justice, fight this foreign traveler in court!”
As soon as Funina finished speaking, the people below started discussing again.
“Oh oh oh oh! That’s right, this is interesting!”
“Well, after all, we are at home in Fontaine, it would be a pity not to use the opera house.”
“Oh? Do you mean, are you going to judge us?” Ying said.
“Haha, of course there is a reason to judge you, and it’s obvious, right?”
“Obviously?” Ying said in surprise.
“That’s right, you offended the gods and attacked them with force.” Funina replied. She knew that as long as Liusu and others were sent to court, they would be guilty.
Thinking of this, Funina raised her head and said to the people below: “So, I arrest you as the water god!”
“Wait a minute.” Liusu stopped him, “You said we offended the gods and attacked them with force, so where is the evidence?”
“Evidence? Didn’t you see the evidence?”
“We didn’t see it. If you don’t believe me, ask other people around.” Liusu said with a smile.
“We didn’t see anything.” Linni stepped forward and replied: “From the beginning, we didn’t see the traveler make any moves.”
“Yes, we didn’t see it.” The people around echoed.
“Or can I perform for you again, so that everyone can see the great achievements of the water god?”
Funina: “.”
“Yes, is that so.” Facing Liusu’s threat, Funina’s face twitched, and then said: “In this case, let’s forget about this matter, and the gods will not judge innocent people.”
“But as long as there is a reason, let alone travelers from foreign countries.”
“I can even judge foreign gods, hehe”
Papapapa!
Liusu looked at the cowardly water god in front of him, and couldn’t help but applaud: “Wonderful, wonderful, I look forward to your judgment of the gods.”
Funina’s mouth twitched, as if she didn’t see Liusu, and said to Linni and his sister Linnet: “Okay, Mr. Linni, Miss Linnet, I am looking forward to your next performance at the opera house. That’s all for today, goodbye everyone.”
Without Paimon’s mouth of God, Ying found it difficult to get information.
After talking with Linni and Linnet for a while, they left separately.
Ying looked at the backs of Linni and Linnet thoughtfully. As a loyal player of “Genshin Impact II”, she knew the development of the plot very well, so she could get some information without talking too much with the two of them.
But this is the real world, and there must be many things that cannot be taken care of in the game. For example, the one next to her now is not Paimon, but two idle gods, and Paimon has also been abducted by her in another world to participate in the celebration of the Seven Saints Summoning.
The days without Paimon seemed to be missing something. Ying thought for a moment and gave up. She would go to find Paimon after the matter was resolved!
At the same time, on the other side of Liyue Harbor.
“Why hasn’t Ying come back yet?” Paimon flew beside [Ying] and scratched his head.
[Ying] smiled and said, “Am I not here?”
“No, it’s the traveler Ying, not you, the Princess of the Abyss.”
“Is there any difference? I am Ying, and Ying is also me. Now you just lead the way for me.”
Paimon: “.”
“I’ve made a lot of Mora recently, how about we have a big meal in the afternoon?”
After hearing what [Ying] said, Paimon changed his previous depressed and sad face, and shouted excitedly as if he was revived: “Big meal? Great!”
Ying shook his head and took Paimon to the Hall of All People.
In the eyes of the people of Liyue, except for a few gods and people who know the inside story, [Ying] is no different from Ying, so [Ying] can play around in this continent as Ying.
Paimon also gradually accepted the existence of [Ying]. After all, she was as generous as her travel companion Ying, and took her to eat delicious food, which was no different from her previous life.
The two talked and laughed, and soon came to the Hall of All People.
“Padofilis, can you eat less?”
“I’m sorry, Boss Kevin, the food in Wanmin Hall is so delicious and affordable.” Padofilis replied while showing off his food. “If we had come here before, we wouldn’t have owed so much debt.”
“I think no matter where we eat, we will owe such a huge debt.” Kevin rubbed his head and said helplessly, “Now we, the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire, owe the General Affairs Department 135 million Mora.”
“No, no, no, Kevin, let me correct you, it’s the Twelve Heroes of Chasing Fire.” Alicia interrupted with a smile, “I don’t have to participate in your debt.”
Kevin: “.”
“Hey, Kevin, Alicia, everyone is here.” After entering Wanmin Hall, Paimon saw these familiar faces and greeted them with a smile.
Alicia smiled and waved to the two of them and said, “Oh, it’s little cutie Paimon, and there’s little cutie Ying, hello~”
“Have you paid off all your debts?”
Kevin was about to say something, but Paimon’s words made him black out again.
“Not yet. The current Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire still owe the General Affairs Department 135 million molas~”
“Why has it increased? Wasn’t it just over 100 million last time?” Paimeng said in surprise.
“That’s a long story.”
“Then let’s make a long story short.”
“Well, when Velvet was fighting monsters, she accidentally blew up the Jade Pavilion. Although the damage caused was small, we still have to pay for it.”
Paimon: “.”
Paimon scratched his head, wondering why these thirteen people worked every day, but Mora owed more and more.
“Come on, come on, don’t worry if you have more debts. Boss Kevin is treating you today. Why don’t you order something and put it in his account?”
“Okay, okay.”
Of course, Paimon would not refuse the offer of free prostitution.
As a result, Kevin’s face turned even darker. Having some Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks as teammates made Kevin wonder if he had destroyed the world in his previous life.
Fontaine, Hailu Port
The first seven-day statue belonging to Fontaine was lit up.
Suddenly, I felt that there was an extra element in my body, the water element. This feeling was quite amazing, especially in Fontaine, as if all the water elements around me came alive.
Ying withdrew her hand and shook it, as if she was adapting to the newly acquired power, or perhaps because of her previous disrespectful behavior towards Funina.
Thinking of the other party’s red face and covering his buttocks as he ran away, Ying couldn’t help but reveal an idiotic smile.
“Lisu, I think there’s something wrong with her.” Fu Xuan said in a low voice.
“That’s just what you think.”
Fu Xuan: “.”
“Okay, the patrol ship is here, let’s set off to Fontainebleau.” Liusu suggested: “It seems that because of our arrival, the plot has begun.”
“After we’re done, we’ll have a good time exploring Fontaine. This water world looks quite fun.”
“Um.”
After several people boarded Fontaine’s unique patrol ship, a cute pink-blue creature appeared in front of them.
“Is this the Vigilante Clan from the Tevat Continent?” Fu Xuan looked at this animal that was somewhat similar to Bai Lu and said in surprise, “It just has an extra pair of small wings and a slightly smaller tail.”
“What kind of Vigilant Clan?” Aibel said, “My name is Aibel. I am a [Meilu Xin], a Fontaine that only exists in the Teyvat continent.”
“Meluxin is a very young race, with a history of only more than 400 years since its birth. It was Lord Navilette who brought us from the caves of Erinas to Fontaine and allowed us to live together with everyone! So! , I can dress beautifully and be the commentator!”
“Oh, so that’s what it is, Meiluxin, more than four hundred years old.” Fu Xuan said suddenly. “It seems to have nothing to do with the Vidyadhara clan.”
“I’m not saying it has nothing to do with it. I can only say it has some relationship.” Liusu replied, “After all, it’s all related to water.”
Fu Xuan: “What you said makes sense.”
“Speaking of which, Linni mentioned that all Fontaine people are born with “sin”, which cannot be eliminated no matter how the righteous country of Fontaine conducts trials.”
Ying thought for a moment and said:
“Until one day, the sea level in Fontaine will begin to rise, and the people who are burdened with sin will gradually be submerged by the sea.”
“.In the end, everyone will dissolve in the sea, leaving only the water god himself crying on the throne. Only then will the sins of the Fontaine people be washed away.”
“And the reason why the water of the primitive sea of fetus will dissolve the Fontaine people? Liusu, do you know?”
“Well, it seems to be related to Gu Fengdanting.” Liusu replied: “Of course I’m just guessing, after all, that memory was eaten by someone.”
“He tui, I didn’t eat it.” King Daci Shu said dissatisfiedly: “It’s obviously your own problem.”
“Lemurian civilization.” Liusu didn’t pay attention to the words of King Dacishu, but said:
“This powerful ancient Fontaine civilization has an extremely close connection with the original Fetal Sea.”
“The Lemurian civilization was not the civilization that originally ruled the land of Fontaine. The earliest civilization in Fontaine came from the unified civilization under the rule of the First Throne – the original king Faness.”
“The First Throne? It seems that this is related to the Yuanxia Palace I visited before.” Ying nodded.
“It is said that in the original era, the sea gave birth to everything. The people of the past were able to sustain themselves by virtue of their morality and did not need to rely on the rule of law and authority.”
“The messengers of the sky walk on the earth. Through their guidance, people live peacefully in the peace that has continued since that time, and enjoy prosperity and abundance.”
“Wait a minute, there are rich evil creatures in this world?!” Hearing this, Fu Xuan interrupted with his eyes widened, “Quickly tell me, where are they?”
tassel:”.”
fluorescent:”.”
“Ahem, this abundance is not that [abundance], and has nothing to do with the Fertility Star God.” Liusu explained helplessly.
She knew that the group of abundance in the simulated world caused Fu Xuan to have an irreversible stress reaction. The mention of abundance made her think of the abundance of evil creatures related to the [Plenty] Star God.
“Ouch.” Fu Xuanhu responded with a smile on his face.
“I don’t know how long it took, but people got tired of the elusive eternity. Later generations no longer believed in the oracles, but instead hoped for things that the gods had not promised, trying to break free from the shackles of fate.”
“Well, is eternity also a mistake?” Ying scratched his head and said: “Whether it is Kanria, Yuanxia Palace, or the ancient Fontaine civilization just mentioned, they are all trying to break the eternity established by the gods. In that case, Liusu, you gave the people of Liyue [eternity].”
“Based on universal rationality, what I gave them is not eternity. The people on the Yuheng Immortal Boat are just like the Vigilantes of the Immortal Boat Alliance. Although they have immortal lifespans, they can reincarnate themselves.” Liusu replied,
“But this memory has a threshold. When the memory reaches the threshold, they will [Return to the Tree] and then forget the memory. It’s just that on the Yuheng Immortal Boat, there are fewer of those forgotten.”
“As Wendy said: Freedom that is ordered is not real freedom, and eternity that is ordered is not real eternity.”
“Do you think you are happy now?” At this point, Liusu cast his eyes on Ying and asked,
“Very happy.” Ying thought for a moment and replied.
“Then are you willing to continue like this? I can give you eternal life.”
“Yes, because I can do my own thing to a certain extent.”
“Do you know why?”
“Huh?” Ying really hadn’t thought about this question, so she looked at Liusu with some confusion.
“Because our strengths are so different, the sky I built for you is a place you will never be able to touch, so in this almost boundless world, you can enjoy this world to your heart’s content.”
“And there is another world outside this world, and this goes on forever.”
Liusu turned around and stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the [sky] of Teyvat and said quietly: “And they can only be imprisoned in this eternal cage.”
