Original God's Dark Priest

Melo Petersburg, restricted area.

Leosley and Clorinde were struggling to hold on. The gate that blocked the sea water was covered by a thick layer of ice, and it looked completely different from when Ying had just left.

But even so, the two still did not dare to slack off.

"Crack!" There was a sound of breaking from the ice layer. Leosli mechanically swung his fist and sent out a gust of ice wind to reinforce the ice layer. Clorinde followed closely behind and added thunder element to the ice wind.

The superconducting reaction was triggered again on the thick ice layer, and it was visibly visible to the naked eye that the ice layer became a little thicker.

But the situation did not last for a few seconds, and the crackling sound was heard again, and the ice layer that had just been reinforced showed signs of breaking again.

Leosley and Clorinde took a deep breath and used their strength again.

From the time Ying left until now, the two have been struggling to hold on in this way. They are just ordinary people with God's Eyes and do not have the strength to fight against natural disasters.

Even so, they still took the safety of Fontaine on their shoulders and, as ordinary human beings, delayed the arrival of the disaster.

Everyone knew that the two of them could only delay for a short while and they would soon be exhausted.

But they were determined and had already prepared themselves for the possibility that no support would arrive and that they would be drowned by the surging fetal water.

At least, before they completely fell, the water from the fetal sea could not pass through the defense line formed by the flesh and blood of these two people.

The people of Fontaine were minding their own business, unaware of the impending disaster. They sang and danced, quarreled over trivial matters, and looked forward to the next farce at the Oprykle Opera House.

And below them, in the place farthest from peace, there are two people who shoulder the destiny of Fontainebleau and gamble their lives on this place.

"Are you okay?" Seeing that Leosley was already out of breath, Clorinde was a little worried.

Leosli shook his head slightly: "It doesn't matter whether it works or not. At this moment, the important thing is to persist, persist for one more second, and then... persist for another second."

For them now, every second they hold on means a point more of hope, and they cannot slack off or stop.

Clorinde's condition was not very good either, and her elemental power was a little overdrawn, but not as serious as Leosli's overdrawn.

Finally, with the sound of footsteps, the reinforcements they had been waiting for finally arrived. Villette walked slowly behind the two of them and said, "Thank you for your help."

Looking at the door blocked by a thick layer of ice, Villette narrowed her eyes slightly. It could be seen that Leosley and Clorinde had really tried their best.

He protected the two behind him and took a deep breath: "Leave it to me next."

Seeing that Villette was going to handle it alone, Clorinde was a little worried: "Are you sure you don't need help?"

Her consumption was not as severe as Leosley's, so she could still squeeze out some strength.

"It doesn't matter." Villette just said lightly and began to wait.

The ice layer won’t last long. The next time the sea water breaks through the blockade, he will take action to suppress it.

Looking at the confident Navelette, Leosley suddenly showed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "Ha~ So the reason you can handle this situation is because..."

"Hmph..." Villette didn't let him finish his words and interrupted him with a cold snort.

Being warned, Leosley spread his hands and shrugged: "Who knows? Maybe it's because you are very responsible."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

He had long guessed about Villette's true identity, but he was never quite sure. When this happened today, the other party actually planned to handle it alone, which indirectly verified his guess.

Clorinde nodded in agreement: "That makes sense."

After saying that, she followed Leosli and left, leaving Villette alone to face this natural disaster that left the others helpless.

Navilette did not respond to their speculations or words, but just stared at the ice wall in front of him silently.

After a few seconds, several cracks suddenly appeared on the ice wall, and then the cracks spread rapidly. The fetal sea water with a blue-purple fluorescent light began to overflow, and soon the overflow turned into a spray, and the ice wall became shaky.

The next moment, the entire ice wall suddenly exploded, and the overwhelming sea water mixed with broken ice crystals rushed towards the proudly standing Navelette.

Villette raised her head slightly, looking at the wonder in front of her, feeling disappointed and sighing. The fetal sea water, the source of life in Teyvat, should have been the most beautiful and warmest thing in the world, but it became a sharp sword hanging over the heads of the people of Fontaine.

In this blue-purple background, he seemed to have returned to five hundred years ago in a trance. At that time, he was still in the primordial womb sea, curled up in a ball, a newly born child with a very vague consciousness.

"Come with me, I will find a home for you..." The white-haired girl stretched out her hand to him...

Villette's pupils shrank slightly, and he subconsciously stretched out his right hand, but what greeted him was not the white-haired girl with the jellyfish head, but a surging tide that was ready to devour anyone.

A trace of regret flashed across Villette's eyes. Even after so much time had passed, he still couldn't forget that person.

The one who looked exactly like Funina.

But... Villette knew very well in her heart that she... was not Furninna.

A soft blue-white glow emanated from his palms, and the originally turbulent fetal sea water suddenly weakened when it reached him, and began to become peaceful and tranquil.

"Calm down, now... is not the time." Villette murmured and took a step forward. As he moved forward, the fetal sea water was forced back by him as if it could not resist.

It was as if the endless fetal sea water was subdued by Villette and became obedient.

Although it felt a bit difficult, Navillatte was sure that he could handle it, and in fact he did so.

"Just as the prophecy shows, this day may come sooner or later...but it shouldn't be now!" Villette's momentum climbed to the peak, and the brilliant blue halo filled the space here. The fetal sea water was completely shocked by his aura and slowly retreated.

This scene was amazing, as if time was going backwards, the surging fetal water was retreating at a faster speed. They were retreating, but Villette was moving forward.

"Such an ancient power... can easily destroy a race..." Villette made his own judgment in his heart, "Boundless disaster is equivalent to the venting of anger..."

Finally, all the fetal sea water shrank back under the original gate. Villette waved his left hand, and the water-blue magic circle took shape instantly, turning into a formation glowing blue, which looked similar to Saphir's Holy Blessing Formation.

This magic circle completely blocks the outlet of the fetal sea water, replacing the function of the gate.

Looking at the fetal water slowly flowing under the bright blue light, Villette let out a long sigh of relief: "This trial is too grand. Please forgive me for not being able to participate in the judgment."

After saying this, he turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped because he remembered what Saphir had said to him not long ago.

“The fetal sea water should be the source of life, but someone uses it as a tool to destroy others. Isn’t this a blasphemy?

As the only Water Dragon King at the top of the water element, don't you think this is a mockery and irony to you?

It is not shameful to associate with humans, but it is shameful to not let go of the arrogance and prejudice in your heart. Being aloof, complacent, self-contained and unaware, clinging to the past, being bound, being manipulated... In the end, you become a pathetic pawn, repeating the path of destruction. "

"..." Villette closed his eyes slightly, stayed there for a few seconds, and then left. He didn't understand what Saphir meant by what he said to him before, but now he had a vague guess.

Naturally, he is unwilling to be controlled by others, and of course, he will not be controlled by Safire. He will use his own eyes to see, his own ears to listen, and do what he thinks he should do.

Outside, Leosley and Clorinde were chatting. Clorinde felt that the vibration had stopped, so she said, "It seems that the problem inside has been settled."

"I guess we're safe for now." Leosley breathed a sigh of relief.

This was the biggest challenge and danger he had faced since becoming the Duke. Fortunately, he managed to overcome the difficulty and was able to survive for a few more days.

At this time, Villette came over and heard what Leosley said. He agreed: "Yes, for now."

He knew very well that the problem of fetal sea water could not be solved so easily. When a flood occurred, it was better to drain water than to block it.

But the Taihai Sea water must not be drained, because this would lead to the complete extinction of the Fontaine people, which is an unsolvable problem.

Seeing Villette coming back, Leosley raised his eyebrows and said to Clorinde beside him: "I won the bet this time, you have to give me a gift."

Clorinde was somewhat helpless about this, but still nodded: "Okay, it is indeed as you said."

"Did you make a bet?" Villette looked around, somewhat puzzled.

Leosley chuckled and nodded, "Well, let's bet whether you come alone or with a group. Clorinde doesn't think you should go alone."

"It should be so only in form. The confidentiality level of this incident is higher than I thought." Clorinde spread her hands helplessly. She would never say that she could only blame the confidentiality level because she felt that Villette did not have the ability.

Leosley shook his head: "You should be used to the high confidentiality of the job. This is how the Inquisition works."

Villette was in a rare good mood and asked, "So, what should the loser of the bet be given as a gift? Tea?"

Leosley liked to drink tea, which Villette knew very well, and this was the first thing that came to mind when giving him a gift.

"There is plenty of tea in the Duke's office, so it would be better to give him a code." Clorinde would not let Leosley get what he wanted, and had already decided on the choice of gift.

Hearing this, Leosli stroked his chin pretentiously and said, "Well... you are not mocking my weak legal awareness." As he said this, he was already thinking about where to throw the damn code to use as a table leg support.

Clorinde, who knew nothing about this, continued, "The Duke will definitely not regard Melro Petersburg as a legal area."

"I thought not many people here would pay attention to the Code..." Villette was a little surprised.

Leosley was quite speechless about Villette's serious temperament. He explained: "It was obviously a joke just now."

Villette was not a person who liked to joke around, and after hearing what he said, she knew it was time to leave, so she walked out.

He had just taken two steps when Leosley called him: "There are still some unfinished troubles on the water, right?"

"If you have urgent matters, you might as well go back first. We all know that you can't leave Momang Palace for too long." Clorinde was very understanding.

"..." Villette sighed slightly, "Okay."

After saying that, he rushed to the Opikley Opera House as fast as he could. He was not sure whether Funina and Ying could handle it given the lady's temper.

His concerns were correct, because at this time, Funina had been completely suppressed by Rosaline. Ying grabbed Funina's hand and accompanied her in being scolded, and she couldn't say anything back.

The two little ones plus the confused Paimeng, the three of them looked so weak, pitiful and helpless at the moment.

"To be honest, I really don't want to speculate about you from this perspective, but... your expression just now tells me that I am right." Rosalin narrowed her eyes and looked at Funina opposite her. "You wouldn't... really do nothing, right?"

"..." Funina was a little terrified. She was not good at lying, and she would definitely be exposed if she lied at this time. But if she didn't lie...

Her silence said it all.

Rosalin held her forehead with her hand and said, "How pitiful... haha... five hundred years... do you know what five hundred years means?

It means the time from the establishment to the fall of a dynasty. This time is enough to witness the change of dynasties! Even if you give a pig 500 years, it can learn to climb a tree.

But...there is no trace of the passing of these five hundred years in you. You occupied the throne of the Water God for five hundred years but did nothing?

Hehehe... Saphir told me to have confidence in you, and Alechino told me not to make things difficult for you, but... are you worthy of their trust?

You are shockingly incompetent and ridiculously leisurely. Even the orphans of Hearth House are trying their best to save their hometown... but what about you? As a god...

How did you manage to live peacefully and comfortably for the past five hundred years? How did you sleep at night? "

Ying felt that Funina was holding her hand more and more tightly, and couldn't help but beg for mercy on her behalf: "Stop scolding me... The child knows he is wrong..."

"Shut up! I'm not talking to you." Rosalin glared at him, and Ying shrank back decisively. Rosalin was so scary when she got angry. Where's Saphir? Help her!

Unfortunately, no one knows where Safir is right now, so he naturally can’t save them.

The pressure from Rosaline was getting greater and greater. Finally, Funina mustered up the courage to refute: "No... I have never despised prophecies, nor have I ever spent my days leisurely. Take back your doubts, and don't speculate about the gods..."

"God... heh..." Rosaline laughed sarcastically, and suddenly appeared in front of Funina and Ying. She stretched out her hand and pinched Funina's cheek. "I always thought that I would pinch a god's face like this, but I didn't expect it to happen today."

Furninna felt like her heart was about to stop, her head was blank and she was at a loss.

"So, Lord Water God, are you going to punish a blasphemer like me?" Rosalin said, picking up the black cat on Funina's lap, "Or are you counting on someone to help you?"

"Let go of Miss Louise!" Furninha suddenly exploded. She opened Rosalin's hand that was pinching her cheek and snatched Miss Louise from her other hand.

"Let's end our meeting today. I won't welcome anyone who doesn't respect God." Holding Miss Louise in her arms, Funina left the table angrily.

Just as she was about to run away, Rosalyn suddenly called her, "Stop."

Funina was startled, but she stood still obediently.

"Click...click...click..." The crisp sound of high-heeled shoes hitting the ground came from behind. Funina's eyes trembled in her sockets. She didn't know what the lady was going to do.

The lady's breath was getting closer and closer. Funina closed her eyes in fear, and then she felt a gust of hot wind coming from her ears.

"It seems that you care about this cat very much. In the next period of time, I hope you can continue as usual and don't waste the trust that my lord has given you."

"My Lord..." Finina suddenly opened her eyes, but only saw the lady's departing back.

"As you said, the meeting ends here. My goal has been achieved. Goodbye." After saying that, Rosalyn left without looking back, leaving the three little ones with confused faces.
