Original God's Dark Priest

Safir looked towards the center of the lake, and there was a hint of murderous intent. It seemed that Lotia had no intention of running away, and was probably preparing for a fight.

The Turbid Water Phantom was ready to go, and the Pure Water Spirit was on high alert. Just at this coincidence, Saphir came here and broke the tense atmosphere.

"It seems that I came at the wrong time?" Saphir looked at the Turbid Water Phantom that had jumped down from a high place, feeling full of disobedience.

Are these little things really the assassins sent by Fukaros to kill Lodia? Let's not talk about whether they can beat them or not, just talking about mobility, if Lodia wants to run, what can these two things do to chase her?

Saphir was looking at the Turbid Water Phantom, but the Turbid Water Phantom would not tolerate her and rushed directly towards her.

"Hmm... so brave?" She was stunned for a moment. To be honest, she hadn't met a guy who dared to take the initiative to attack her for a long time.

Then, Saphir shook his head, turned around and walked towards the lake where Lotia was. Behind her, two netherworld chains quietly emerged, pierced through the two turbid water phantoms in an instant, and then disappeared.

The turbid water phantom exploded and turned into a pool of water. At this time, Saphir had already walked to the lake.

She slowly lifted her foot and stepped on the water, then tried to stand firm and lifted her other foot. She walked very slowly, but she was walking on the water.

"It's clearly a platform in the game, but this is a complete lake... So, it was changed for convenience..." Saphir thought to himself as he walked to the center of the lake.

Lotia seemed to be very resistant to Saphir's arrival. Even after seeing her kill the Turbid Water Phantom, she had no intention of coming out to see her.

"I know you are watching, why don't you come out to see me?" Saphir asked, standing in the center of the lake.

Lotia's voice came from underwater: "Go away, guest from afar. Your hands are stained with too many wronged souls, which will disturb the water of Qingce."

"Hehe, if you want to find an excuse, you should find a reasonable one, right? Haven't you heard that killing too many people will pollute the water source?" Safir sneered and began to think about whether to use Frost Essential Oil to force the other party out.

But Lotia's next words stunned her: "I am not making excuses. The wronged souls of the pure water elves will cause the water source to be tainted with pain and hatred. I can feel that you carry their resentment, and the breath of the abyss still remains in your body.

Prolonged contact with you will cause the pure water spirits to undergo irreversible changes, and eventually they will turn into turbid water phantoms."

"What did you say? I have killed many pure water elves?" Saphir frowned. She didn't remember doing such a thing. "You'd better explain it clearly, otherwise I will get you out even if I fill up this lake."

Saphir was not joking, and Lotia could sense the seriousness in her tone, and that serious expression did not seem fake.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Saphir saw ripples in the lake in front of him, and then a huge pure water elf suddenly broke out of the water and flew into the air.

The close observation convinced Lottia of her conclusion. She nodded and said, "I am not mistaken. You have indeed killed many pure water elves. Maybe you don't realize it, but it is a fact."

"How ridiculous! I have hardly even seen any pure water elves, and you actually said that I have killed many of them? Lotia, are you crazy?" Saphir tried to find a light that did not belong to reason in the eyes of the pure water elf in front of him, but unfortunately, Lotia was very sober.

After hearing what Saphir said, Lotia was silent for a moment, and then she figured it out: "I understand, you... are from Fontaine?"

"I stayed there when I was a child, but I committed a serious crime due to some unavoidable reasons, so I left. Does this have anything to do with the pure water elf you mentioned?" Saphir frowned.

Lotia nodded: "You killed a lot of Fontaine people, right?"

“…” Saphir said nothing. For her, this was not something worth boasting about in the past.

But she didn't say anything, and Lotia could tell that she was right: "That's right, the Fontaine people are pure water elves. We are the followers of Lady Egolia. Because we longed for human life, Lady Egolia used the power in her hands to turn us into humans.

But... her authority is not complete. Although the pure water elves have become human, they are still pure water elves in essence, and this will not change. You killed many Fontaine people, so you carry the resentful spirits of the pure water elves on your body. "

"Heh...vengeful spirit...because of this, I can't stay in Fontaine...Did Fucaros know this from the beginning? Everything she did was to make me leave there..." Saphir suddenly realized.

If what Lotia said was true, then her long stay in Fontaine would inevitably lead to the so-called water pollution. Although she herself did not believe it, she knew how serious the consequences would be.

But she thought about it, even if there was only one case, if a Fontaine person suddenly turned into a small drop of water like the turbid water phantom in public, the impact of this incident on Fontaine society would be immeasurable.

People will begin to doubt everything, and she may be imprisoned as a monster or even executed.

The spread of public opinion will also cause changes in the water quality of Fontaine. According to Navilette, emotions will dissolve in water, and tears are the crystallization of human emotions.

If such a big disturbance really occurs, it is not impossible that various public opinions and panic emotions will lead to changes in water quality.

Safir shook his head. He thought that since he had been away from Fontaine for so long, it was impossible for him to have any influence on the area.

Instead, she wanted to know more about Fukaros, so she asked, "Lotia, do you know Fukaros well?"

"..." Lotia didn't want to answer Safir's question. Regardless of whether she agreed with Fucaros's approach or not, at least she couldn't help Safir deal with Fucaros. This was the bottom line.

Now it seems that Saphir is a complete criminal who fled to another country after killing someone in Fontaine. Lotia will never help her.

Seeing that Lotia was silent, Saphir frowned slightly. She felt a hint of murderous intent coming from her: "You... want to fight me?"

"Go away. I don't want to fight with you. I will never tell you about Fucaros's affairs. Even though I am now a traitor who can't go back, I will not help a criminal to deal with my former...relatives." After saying that, Lotia wanted to dive into the water.

But she miscalculated. The moment she said this, the Netherworld Chains suddenly appeared and blocked her every movement, directly fixing her in the air, unable to move.

Safire's voice was a little cold: "I am not discussing this with you. If you tell me, you will live. If you don't tell me, you will die."

“Demon level! No...you are..." Lotia knew that she had seriously underestimated Saphir's strength. In her opinion, the strength that Saphir showed in instantly killing the Turbid Water Phantom was indeed very strong, but the lake was her home ground. Even if she couldn't beat him, she could still run away.

Now it seems that this was completely overthinking. From the moment she showed up, she had fallen into the other party's hands and could no longer escape.

How could Kolodiya be afraid of death? Although she was indeed worried about the assassins from her homeland, she was also very clear about the interests of her country: "You can kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you."

"You do have some backbone, but don't think I have no other choice. If I can't pry open your mouth, I'll go find Egolia. She will tell me something. If that doesn't work, I'll kill Fucaros. No one can hide what I want to know from me." As Saphir spoke, the chains in the air tightened, causing Delotia to wail in pain.

Lotia struggled, and suddenly her eyes flickered. She said, "The Yaksha Immortal is here. If you start a fight here, he won't let you go!"

"Yaksha Immortal? Even if the Rock King came and I wanted to kill you, he wouldn't say a word." Saphir sneered and tightened the chains.

As if to verify Saphir's words, Xiao appeared on the cliff not far away and said softly: "King Chen, you should save some face for the Emperor when you go out."

Xiao's words seemed to be trying to persuade Saphir, but in fact they cut off Lotia's hope. She could tell that Xiao had no intention of saving her at all.

Saphir ignored Xiao's advice and stared coldly at Lodia: "How can you live in Liyue for hundreds of years without giving anything in return?"

"Uh... I can't say." Lotia knew that she was going to die today. She only hoped that Saphir would give her a quick death and not torture her too harshly.

Looking at the iron-willed Lodia, Saphir took a deep breath, suppressed the negative emotions in his heart, and took out the small bottle of nectar and living water: "This is the last thing that Egolia left in this world, Lodia, I will give you one last chance. If you still insist on being stubborn, I don't mind sending you to see her."

"Original Water...where did you get it from!" Lotia didn't expect that Saphir could take out this thing, and her pupils suddenly shrank.

Saphir took the small water bottle, waved his hand, and loosened the chain a little: "It was obtained from the sea of ​​nectar flowers. That is the burial place of Egolia. You should know that with this, it is possible to reawaken Egolia."

This drop of nectar contains the will of Egolia and remains in the sea of ​​nectar flowers, which can help suppress the power of filth.

But at the same time, this will consume its spirituality. Once the spirituality is consumed, Egolia will no longer have the possibility of waking up.

By then, even if all the Pure Light Feathers were collected and the Nectar Pool and the Mother Tree of All Beings were activated, it would no longer be possible to talk to her.

Staring blankly at the bottle in Saphir's hand, Lotia cried out in sorrow: "It's too late. Lady Egolia's will... has long been so weak... that I can no longer feel it..."

"..." Safir looked up at Lotia who was high up. Her sadness didn't seem fake, which made her wonder, was she really too late?

Lotia lowered her head and murmured, "Five hundred years ago, we learned of Lady Egolia's whereabouts and spontaneously went to the sea of ​​nectar flowers to pay homage. We said we were paying homage, but in fact, we all had a glimmer of hope in our hearts. Lady Egolia has the power of the water god, so how could she die?

But when we arrived there, the scene before us completely shattered our fantasy. Lady Egolia was dead. She sacrificed all her strength to seal the filth. She...can't come back."

Saphir knew about this. In fact, there were not only the remains of Egolia, but also those of the Great Kindness Tree King. If it were not for the concerted efforts of the God of Water and the God of Grass, such a magical place as the Sea of ​​Nectar Flowers would not have been created.

“It is precisely because we have witnessed the end of Lady Egolia that we understand that the calamity of the abyss is a disaster that spreads across the entire world. In order to fight against it, she was willing to perish in a foreign country. How can such determination not move us?

However, as her successor, Fucarus denied Lady Eugolia's ideas. She was conservative and locked herself in a small house, trying to escape the destruction of Fontaine.

But that was impossible. How could a natural disaster be changed by one's own will? She gave up saving Fontaine, gave up fighting the so-called prophecy, and gave up the possibility of Fontaine's survival.

But we can't give up. I never understood why Fukalos, a pure water elf, could become the water god. She was just more treacherous and cunning than other pure water elves. Was this also the qualification to become a god?

Lady Egolia said that she saw hope in Fukaros, but I don't agree! I don't agree with her. Not only me, but also many people like me, we spontaneously left our homeland to search and explore the hope of saving our hometown.

But, in the end, the cruel reality told me that we were doomed to fail. This world is no longer the same as it was five hundred years ago. Apart from Fontaine, there are almost no places suitable for us to survive. Even the water source of Fontaine can no longer produce pure water elves.

The soil we live on has long been slowly being stripped away. By the time I realized this, it was already too late. Since I came here, I have been in a state of panic every day. She will not let me go, let us go, because we have already betrayed Fontaine."

There is a lot of information in Lodia's words. Fucaros and the people of Fontaine are actually pure water elves. Saphir can understand why Lodia and others would make such a choice. In essence, they also want to save Fontaine, but the prophecy is not something they can solve.

After analyzing what she had seen of Fontaine and her brief indirect contact with Fukaros, Saphir was certain that Fukaros had not given up on saving Fontaine. This was the conclusion she came to after discussing with Alechino.

Someone who can become a god cannot be an idiot. Burying one's head in the sand and trying to avoid disaster is something only an ostrich would do. Fucaros cannot be so naive.

If she wanted to give up, then creating a puppet to replace her in public would be a bit unnecessary.

Looking at the grieving Lotia, Saphir loosened the nether chains.

Lotia was free, but she did not hide. She knew that she could never escape from Saphir, so she was relieved: "Now that the prophecy is coming true, I have nothing to fear. It's a pity that we failed to fulfill Lady Egolia's last wish. As expected, we are still too useless."

"Regarding the vengeful spirit of the pure water elf that you felt in me, I don't have much to explain, and I don't expect you to trust me. It's just that you have no way to save your hometown now. How about giving it a try? Who knows, maybe I can help you?" Saphir said as if he was joking.

Lotia stared at her and suddenly sneered: "A person who is haunted by the energy of the abyss, how can you talk big about saving the world? The essence of the Fontaine disaster is inseparable from the abyss. It is extremely dangerous for you to even touch the abyss now. If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss monster. Why are you so shameless?"

"So I think that you, or Egolia, will have a way to help me, otherwise, you wouldn't have this attitude." Saphir was very calm and was not angry at all because of Lotia's sneer.

After hearing what Saphir said, Lotia fell silent and looked at her for a long time.

Safire was not in a hurry either. She just stood quietly on the lake. Her short stature was so upright, as if nothing could crush her.

Finally, Lotia seemed to give up and sighed: "Yes, there is indeed a way, but... I don't want to tell you."

"Because you don't believe me?" Saphir raised his eyebrows.

Lotia shook her head. "Because it will completely destroy the last glimmer of hope that Lady Egolia could wake up. Although it seems that it no longer exists. But... never mind. You've already brought it out of the sea of ​​nectar flowers. How can I expect you to return it?"

"You mean, this primordial water can help me?" Saphir heard the hidden meaning in Lotia's words and asked.

Lotia did not answer, but dived into the lake and left her last words: "If possible, please save the creatures in the sea of ​​nectar flowers and let Lady Egolia rest in peace. This way, it can be regarded as the last drop of dew she left, and it will be put to good use. If you have made up your mind, drink it."
