"That was started five hundred years ago by a man named René."
“Through the exploration of the remaining data of Keria, he deduced a product called ‘World Format’—through which the fate of Teyvat can be deduced.”
"He thus foresaw that Fontaine would be submerged and Teyvat would lose its ability to bear life."
“Renne was not overwhelmed by fear, nor did he waver. Instead, he began to search for a way to save Fontaine from the disaster.”
The blue-and-white-haired girl led the two to the water's edge, gazing at the Gestalt tower in the distance, and recounting everything hidden behind it.
"He found what he was looking for in the records left behind by the ancient kingdom of Lemuria."
"A cryptic instrument called the Circular Quadrant".
"Through it, the dissolved consciousness of the people of Fontainebleau can be collected together."
"And that tower is the end of the ritual."
Looking at 'Jiang Ningna's' outstretched hand, Funina was somewhat puzzled:
"What?"
"Of course I'll go over there." The girl said with a hint of helplessness, then teased, "Or are you planning to swim over?"
Gestalt is located on an island in the middle of the lake, and when the map is zoomed in, it is not very close to the island of Irie.
Unfortunately, the rail-guided ship's route does not pass through there, so the only way to get there by normal means would probably be by boat or airship.
But Jiang Qiao was clearly unwilling to take this approach.
Fu Ningna, her cheeks slightly flushed, grasped Jiang Qiao's hand—it was quite soft...
When she held Jiang Ningna's hand, she couldn't help but have this thought.
However, the next moment, the fairy Ellie's magic wand gently tapped Funina on the head—the 'thud' made Miss Funina cry out in pain, clutching her forehead with some displeasure:
"Hey, what are you doing..."
"No flirting~ What weird things are you thinking about, right!" Fairy Airi, holding her fairy wand, looked innocent and righteous, and said with a "no flirting" attitude, "I can't let you take advantage of me, you reliable person."
Fu Ningna blushed slightly. She was naturally shy after her thoughts were exposed, especially in front of Jiang Qiao, the person involved. But the next sentence made her puff out her cheeks instantly.
What do you mean I took advantage of him?
He clearly took advantage of me! What's wrong with just holding hands?!
Besides, that body is my own! How is it considered taking advantage of me to touch my own hand?
Thinking of this, Funina became even more self-righteous, and even her previous shyness gradually disappeared—Yes! That's my own body.
So what if it's soft and smells nice? I'm just praising myself! There's absolutely no need to be shy!
"I don't have one!"
Giving Fairy Airi a disgruntled glare, unlike her previous shyness, Miss Funina took the initiative to grab 'Jiang Ningna's' hand, then glared at Fairy Airi with an arrogant, owner-like look, unusually assertive:
"let's go."
It's good to be assertive, but the next moment—Miss Funina lost her footing and almost fell into the water.
Fortunately, Mr. Jiang reached out and pulled the former back in time.
"Pfft."
Fairy Airi burst out laughing.
"Really, could you wait a minute?"
The blue-and-white-haired girl sighed helplessly.
Then, a snap of the fingers rang out—an invisible bulge of water appeared.
“Ahhh~”
Jiang Qiao gently jumped onto it, holding Funina's hand. The next moment, the water block, or rather, the fluid block, carried them at an extremely fast speed toward the Gestalt on the island in the middle of the lake.
There is no wind to block it.
The ability to manipulate fluids allows 'Jiang Ningna' to ride the waves at extremely high speeds like this.
This extremely novel experience made Funin exclaim in surprise and amazement.
"arrive."
Just minutes ago, the tower was still far away, but now it was within reach. Holding Funina's hand, Jiang Qiao stepped onto the island's land and looked up at the island, feeling an incomparable tranquility.
In fact, in the Fontaine chapter, the most dangerous thing is not the surging waters of the primordial womb.
And it just so happens to be this tower in front of us... or rather, the guy at the bottom of the tower.
Rene Nazisen Cruz.
The great whale grew and stirred up the Fontainebleau Sea, causing the seawater to overflow and the sea level to rise, which in turn led to the prophecy that all the people of Fontainebleau would dissolve into the water.
From the main storyline, after Navelette obtained the power of the ancient dragon, he did indeed free the people of Fontaine from their pure water spirit nature, making them humans who no longer needed to fear the waters of the womb.
But what this heavyweight in the side story is about to do and what he can achieve is enough to completely overturn everything.
The waters of the Sea of the Womb could only dissolve the Fontaines who were burdened with original sin—but through Nazisen Cruz's painstaking research, he successfully innovated on the limitations of the Sea of the Womb.
Just as the invention of cold-resistant mosquitoes compensated for the lack of mosquitoes in winter, once Nazisen Cruz's plan is completed, the objects of the rising and dissolving of the fetal seawater he caused will not be limited to the Fontaine people, who are essentially pure water spirits.
Rather, they are all theoretically Teyvats.
Fontaine is the place where all waters converge, and it is also the highest point of sea level on this planet. If Nazisen Cruz really completes his plan, the seawater flowing into the sea through the Fontaine Inland Lake Waterfall will pollute the entire Teyvat seawater. In that case, the people of the seven countries will probably be able to experience what it is like to be 'easily soluble in water', just like the people of Fontaine.
Among them, perhaps only those powerful elemental beings and demon gods can escape unscathed.
Without a doubt, this is the real disaster.
The fairy Ellie pointed to the front of the tower, "There seems to be someone in front of the tower."
He was a blond young man dressed in purple.
Of course, the appearance is not a generic NPC template used by a certain three-character manufacturer to save money on modeling, but rather something more specific and distinctive.
The man in purple was somewhat surprised to see Jiang Qiao appear, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes, but it quickly turned into a smile.
"Lady Funina."
"What brings you here?"
Hearing those tentative words, 'Furina' smiled.
"What, you're not welcome?"
“I remember that the Shadow Chasing Court has already seized this place, right? This tower should now be the property of the Fontaine Court.”
"But you..."
"Mr. Jacob, what are you planning to do here?"
The girl smiled and looked at the man in front of her calmly, casually revealing his name.
At that moment, Jacob's expression changed drastically.
Chapter 257 Will We Win?
Even though Jacob faced joint resistance from Alan and Fontaine five hundred years ago, he did not believe that such resistance was enough to make him give up his mission of saving the world.
After all, the path to salvation is always full of obstacles and misunderstandings, and distrust.
In a sense, the demise of the Narcissistic Cross might actually be a good thing.
Because of its destruction, Fontainebleau's attention shifted away from them, allowing Jacob to secretly begin his own plans throughout Fontainebleau.
Moreover, unlike him and René, their former friend Alain had not escaped the shackles of mortals and had long since passed away.
This also means that there will probably be no one in this world who can stop me anymore.
Jacob was overjoyed—at the same time, the day when the 'world-style' prophecy would come true was fast approaching.
Once the remaining steps are completed and the final 'holy sword' is forged, Rene's plan to save the world will be successfully completed.
However...
Jacob's heart clenched as he gazed at the blue-and-white-haired aristocratic-looking girl with a man in the distance, accompanied by an unidentified pink floating object.
Frinina – the water goddess of Fontainebleau, the goddess of justice.
As a citizen of Fontainebleau, he was certainly no stranger to the other party.
In some ways, Jacob was an old man who witnessed the rise and fall of Fontaine and the changing of the water god.
However, he was so engrossed in his salvation plan that he didn't pay attention to the water goddess. He may have initially thought that he could communicate with her and gain some support, but after Funina took the stage, her series of absurd measures led to both him and René having a poor opinion of her.
She is indeed a popular water goddess, and her acting skills are admirable. In the past, even someone as proud as René would have to admit that Frynn was excellent.
However, the predicament faced by Fontaine meant that the people of this land did not need an actor as a leader.
Faced with the impending prophecy, the people of Fontainebleau need a god who can save them.
And Funina is definitely not a qualified god.
