"In three days the indictment will be filed at the Oprykle Opera House. The young lady has been going to the opera house more and more frequently."

"Catch up on some sleep, catch up on some sleep, I'm so sleepy. I feel more and more tired these days." Navia stretched and forced herself to cheer up. "You guys should go and rest too."

"Okay, miss."

Seeing the two leave, Navia changed into pajamas and rolled onto the bed with her eyes closed. The quilt was warm, and it was nice to have someone warm the bed! There was also a warm pillow.

After being tense for nearly 15 hours, Navia gave up thinking and fell asleep directly.

Three hours later, Navia noticed something moving in her arms and opened her eyes.

Then he saw Finina struggling on her pair of slimes with a red face, and his arms holding her tightly.

Navia's face gradually distorted.

"I haven't woken up yet, I must be dreaming!" Then he closed his eyes.

"Let me go! Navia!"

Chapter 418 Two People with Different Philosophies

"Fun... Lady Funina!"

Navia shouted with a deafening voice, and finally woke up when she felt the warmth in her hands. This was not a dream.

There was a knock on the door.

"Miss, what happened?" The voice of the servant Silver came from outside the door.

"No...it's okay, I had a nightmare." Navia replied quickly.

"Evil Navia, and Clorinde, why can they grow so big." Finina broke free from Navia's clutches, talking to herself while comparing the gap in their minds.

After a commotion, both of them put on their makeup.

"Lady Fu Nina, why are you in my bed? What have you thought about the matter of Baisong Town?"

"Ahem, as the god of Fontaine, I naturally have to understand the situation in the Gray River. I was tired from the incognito inspection, so I just found a room to sleep. Well, Villette and the others are looking for me, I have to go."

Seeing Furninna walking towards the door and about to leave, Navia felt a surge of resentment in her heart. She stepped on the door with her right foot and the rock creation covered the door.

"???"

"Why? Are you going to run away again? You are the god we Fontaine people love and respect. Why... don't you want to respond to us directly?

The first flood five hundred years ago had already submerged countless streets outside Fontaine. The second flood was about to come, and many areas in Baisong Town and Huihe had also experienced small tremors, causing many wells and pools to overflow.

Aren't these towns and people completely below sea level worth saving? Move them to some higher ground. For you, you only need to speak a strong word to shut up those nobles.

Do you know what information I have found during this period?

Thousands of noble lords, big and small, in Fontaine all bought large ships. Nearly a hundred people from their families immigrated to the other six countries, and more than four hundred people applied for tourism, most of whom chose a six-month visa.

After a while, the number of people going on a "tour" will only increase. All the noble lords of Fontaine will flee to seek refuge. What should we ordinary people do? Do we have a boat? Can we afford it?

The laws of Fontaine do not allow for the free felling of trees. Only a limited number of nobles have the privilege of felling trees. Those who violate the law for shipbuilding will be directly sent to trial. Ordinary people are cut off from even the option of building ships to save themselves.

There are less than 50 boats in the entire Fontaine that can carry more than people. The population of Fontaine alone is completely insufficient. The water is rising, how can the people in the Grey River escape?

The number of elderly people, young children, and disabled people combined is close to more than 10. What about those who cannot swim, or whose swimming ability is very weak? It doesn’t take too long, minutes is enough for them to drown.”

"Enough! Let me leave!" said Furninna.

"Just answer me one question: If Baisong Town is flooded, can you save the people of Baisong Town? Can you... or can't you?" Navia looked at Funina sharply.

"I am the goddess Furniture, all you need to do is believe in me." Furniture said as usual, but her eyes turned away.

'Wall Dong'

Navia pushed Fernina to the door, leaned one hand against it, and looked into Fernina's eyes.

"Your eyes... why are you avoiding me? You are a god! Where is the confidence of a god? I have been with Master Xuan of Liyue for some time, and his eyes are full of confidence. Lady Funina, why are you so unconfident?

Sometimes I really doubt whether you are the god of our Fontaine.

Six years ago, when the demon god Osel flooded Liyue Harbor, Liyue was prepared to fight the disaster in every way. The immortals and the people worked together to overcome that difficult time.

There is a limit to what a person can do, and there is also a limit to what a god can do. We never care about the strength of gods, but whether they can work together with us to deal with disasters. There is no need to feed us chicken soup every day, only to let us die in despair in the end.

It is known that Fontaine will soon flood for the second time, so what are our preparations? Tell me, what preparations have you made to deal with this flood. Don't worry, if it is a secret, I will never tell others. Funina... You are not a fighter.

Let's deal with this impending disaster together, okay?"

"Ah, be prepared! Of course I am prepared! Yes... yes..." Funina's eyes turned to the side again.

"You're lying! Your eyes...are evasive again! You actually haven't made any preparations at all."

"Trust me, I can handle it! I'm the divine Furninna!"

“I really want to believe you, but what you did... is so disappointing.

I don't know who you believed, and who made you think that relying on that person could solve this disaster. Did that person tell you the detailed steps? Did he tell you the process and the final result?

If 100 million people died in Fontaine and 10 survived, it can be considered a solution, after all, the dead can’t talk.”

"No, I don't think so. I can really solve it! I really can...solve it..."

"Solve it? Where is the ship? Where is the ship that can carry the entire Fontaine? What about the relocation of the people? What about the disaster drills? How to arrange for the elderly, children, disabled people, and Fontaine people who can't swim and foreigners?

If the streets are flooded like the first time, have you decided on an evacuation point? Have you prepared supplies?

Or can you say that if you just rub your lips, the water in Fontaine will stop rising? Can you do that?

You can't do it, you can't even use elemental power, even when I hold you, you can't break free, what's the difference between you and ordinary people right now? How can I trust you?"

"Elemental power...I can still use it." Finina looked at the bracelet.

"???"

A small water ball condensed in Fernina's hand, and Navia looked at Fernina in confusion. Then she let go of Fernina's hand and walked to the bed and sat down.

"The gods are powerful, but they didn't do anything. They just hoped that others would come to solve the disaster. And we, the powerless ones, are desperately looking for a glimmer of hope.

I really envy you. Even if all the ordinary people in Fontaine died, you could be saved. Then Villette would definitely not leave you alone. But who will save us ordinary people?

Go away. There is nothing to say between us. You are just a clown who dances alone on the stage in the name of God, expecting others to save Fontaine. You can use the power of God to do many things, but you don't do anything.

Years of high society life have blinded your eyes. God is the spiritual pillar of the people of Fontaine. You only see the nobles and not us commoners. Delicious desserts, banquets with delicious fish and meat. Are these nobles all there is to Fontaine?

Sometimes I wish Master Xuan could be our god. When disaster strikes, he will stand in front of us and fight with us to the end, until he is exhausted and can no longer stop the destruction of the people behind him, and then he will cry on the throne.

Yet you are so passive in the face of the impending disaster. The situation has become increasingly serious, but you are still singing and dancing as if nothing has happened.

You are just as disappointing as Villette. "

"Navia..."

"I don't want to listen to your bland chicken soup anymore. Our philosophies have been different since the beginning.

You are a god, and you may have ulterior motives. No matter who gave you the confidence to solve the prophecy, whether it was the former Egolia or the deceased Fukaros, the current water god's name is not them, but a god named Fu Nina. You can do many, many things.

I am just an ordinary person, I don't have the power to solve the prophecy. But I will do my best to save those ordinary people and save them from this disaster.

Fontaine, the land of justice... Where is the justice in your heart?" Navia lay on the bed and said nothing more.

The rock structure at the door gradually disappeared. Finina opened the door without saying a word, lowered her head.

"Pah!" Silver and Myles, the two servants, rolled to the ground and stood up quickly.

“We didn’t hear anything!”*2

Furninna ignored them and ran away quickly.

Navia stood up again, walked to the window, and saw Fernina leaving in a hurry. She couldn't help but sigh.

"Miss, why is Lady Funina here with you?" Servant Silver asked in confusion.

"I don't know. She was placed in my room on purpose. It also gave me a chance to talk to the gods. It's a pity that she concealed a lot of things. She was so sure that she could solve the prophecy, but she couldn't tell me how.

It's so suspicious, so suspicious that I even doubt whether her identity as a god is real or not. You have all seen Master Xuan. Although he looks kind and amiable, you can feel the confidence that emanates from him from the inside out.

"Funina didn't have the confidence of a god at all. Logically speaking, she has been the god of Fontaine for 500 years. She has ruled Fontaine for 500 years. She should have developed some of the qualities that a superior should have, right?"

"Miss, you are right. It seems that Lady Funina is indifferent to other matters except the trial. She basically leaves everything to Chief Judge Villette."

"Tell me, if she believes in her heart that she is not a god, but a pawn pushed out by others, then many things can be explained clearly, for example, she is just a puppet manipulated by the chief judge, Navillatte? Almost all power is in the hands of Navillatte, so she cannot resist."

"It's possible, but there's a lack of evidence. We'll arrange for someone to investigate later."

Navia looked out the window again, and Furninna had completely disappeared.

"I'll give you another half a year. If you still don't make any new moves, then... I'll be the 'God' of Fontaine. Even if I have to make a deal with the devil, I will do my best to save everyone in Fontaine." The voice muttering to himself floated in the room.

"!!!" Servants Silver and Myles looked at each other, said nothing, then quietly closed the door and walked out.

The story between the two girls, who have different ideas but the same ultimate goal, begins.

Chapter 419 Choosing a Team

The missing case of the water goddess Funina, which was widely reported in the Steambird newspaper in the morning, was solved before the afternoon. According to Funina, she went to the Gray River incognito.

The reporter found out that there were only witnesses when Funina went out, but no witnesses when she went in, which aroused discussions among countless people in Fontaine.

All along, Funina has been using the excuse that all her power has been given to the Cardinal of the Oracle to deceive the people of Fontaine. Such a bizarre situation can only be explained by Funina regaining her divine power.

Momang Palace.

"Where did you go last night? Why were you in a place like Gray River?" asked Villette.

"Ah! I was in a bad mood last night and wanted to walk around, and then I walked into the Gray River without realizing it." Funina glanced away.

"Unknowingly? I asked Meilushin to check the elevator on the other side of the waterway, and all traces were handled very cleanly. The tracking personnel found that all the clues were cut off. There are not many organizations that can kidnap you in Fontaine. The first suspect organization at the moment is the Fatui."

"It wasn't the Fatui who did it." Finina said hastily.

"It's definitely not the Fatui. The bad things the Fatui did in the four neighboring countries have long been spread throughout Teyvat. I have set up secret lines to monitor them early on, and after interrogation, I found that they were indeed unaware."

"Huh? Not them? Then...last night..." Finina was surprised, and then saw Villette's sharp eyes looking at her.

"Sure enough...you are hiding something."

"No! No! Absolutely nothing hidden!"

"The reputation of the Kingdom of Winter among the other four nations has dropped to the freezing point. The diplomatic failure forced them to choose a different card. During the interrogation last night, we learned that the Fatui's executive officer, 'Servant', would come to Fontaine in order to make friends with us and solve the Fontaine prophecy together.

The situation of the elevators chasing people away last night will only damage their reputation in Fontaine and is inconsistent with their ultimate goal. I think someone is impersonating the Fatui. "

"The Fatui are going to solve Fontaine's prophecy together?"

"Yes, a large amount of supplies and escape equipment are on the way. The Fatui don't want to lose the reputation of Fontaine, nor do they want us to be included in Liyue's alliance. They will definitely do their best to get us closer to the Kingdom of Winter.

Currently, the Fatui diplomats have been replaced by friendly people, and with the help of the magician brother and sister, they have made friends with more than 40 nobles. "

"That's great. That man didn't lie to me. This way the people of Fontaine can be saved." Funina said happily.

"That person?" That Villette heard a key word.

"Ah! It's okay! I'm going to rest first! Isn't there a trial in the evening?" Funina ran away quickly.

That Villette looked at Clorinde who had been standing next to him for a long time.

"What do you think of this incident?"

"It was not the Fatui who kidnapped Fernina, but someone else. The latest report said that Fernina came out of Navia's house in the Grey River.

Navia can be said to be a person belonging to Master Xuan of Liyue. Even if the Fatui want to frame her, Navia has an alibi. She has been under interrogation and investigation in Momang Palace from last night to this morning.

Navia went to the Debo Hotel last night and interrupted Funina's dinner. She wanted Funina to use her status as a god to allocate a piece of land to relocate the people of Baisong Town. Lady Funina had never dealt with political affairs, but she also knew the laws of Fontaine, so she naturally knew that she couldn't agree to it directly.

After the unpleasant parting, someone took advantage of the Fatui's identity to kidnap him and cleaned up all traces. It was very likely some kind of deal with Furninna.

As for why Fernina appeared in Navia's house, I think the mastermind behind it wanted to give them a chance to talk. Judging from the result of Fernina's departure, it is very likely that the conversation failed.

My personal guess is that Liyue was responsible for this incident, but there is absolutely no evidence."

"He still intervened."

"Him? It seems like you are very defensive against Liyue. Why?"

"I'm not on guard against Liyue, but that person... Master Xuan from Liyue. He will destroy Fontaine."

"Destroy Fontaine? It seems like you have no intersection with each other?"

"Five hundred years ago, when Fukaros personally invited me to take up the position of Supreme Judge, she told me: 'In the future, there will be an immortal named Lin in Liyue who will interfere in the affairs of Fontainebleau. Stop him, or Fontainebleau will be destroyed again.' I never took it seriously, but now it seems..."
