NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 542 Hunting Gods
"The second slate depicts the former Water Goddess Egolia kneeling on the ground facing the floating island in the sky, as if she is confessing her guilt. Don't you know this too?"
Funina insisted that she didn't know, and even if she knew, she couldn't tell.
Seeing that Fu Nina still refused to say anything, Villette said patiently: "I ask again, do you really have no information about the previous water god? The information I decoded from the stone tablet is that the water god Egolia was responsible for something. Apologize or plead guilty, you should know the most about this."
Funina was a little angry and retorted confidently: "Every god may have his own secrets. The previous generation is the previous generation, and I am me. There is nothing strange about not knowing. I understand your anxiety, but... no Sorry, I really have nothing to reveal."
Seeing that she still refused to tell, Villette was a little angry, and she still kept it to herself until now.
"Ms. Funina, I must say that I have already known that you have used various forces to secretly conduct some kind of investigation. There are various signs that you have been secretly investigating prophecies. As the water god, you investigate prophecies. It’s not strange, but it’s very strange that you claimed not to know Egolia’s secret and did nothing after investigating.”
"You are never as superficial as you appear, nor are you truly stupid. However, your behavior is also extremely inconsistent..."
Seeing how solemn the atmosphere was, Funina burst into laughter. She hadn't really noticed that Violet was paying so much attention to her.
Villette's face turned red with anger, and he became a steam dragon.
[Amber: I’m really anxious. Why can’t you just say it and keep pretending to be stupid?]
[Ningguang: Both sides have their own reasons for insisting, but Funina's situation cannot be communicated specifically. What appears on the surface is conflict, but everyone is for Fontaine, and they are not wrong]
[Funina: If I really say it, Fontaine will be hopeless. I... the prophecy is over now, but as a qualified artist, I can't do such a thing as a spoiler]
[Paimon: You know, when you were pretending to be stupid, Villette wanted to beat you to death]
[Ying: I’m just about to send you to Merlot Petersburg]
[Navilet: I didn’t say these things, please don’t add drama to me]
[Alice: Miss Funina...I am your wall-breaker]
[Funina:? ? ? 】
[Paimon: Steam Dragon! Did you see that Villette’s face was red with anger and she was still angry?]
[Linny: Pfft! Sorry, I couldn't help it]
[Kaia: Water Dragon King - Crying Dragon - Steam Dragon, hahaha]
[Ying: You, you gave someone a nickname again]
[Paimon: Just kidding, hehe]
【Navilet….】
[Paimon: Villette and Zhongli are really similar. One is Funina’s subordinate and the other is Hutao’s subordinate. Both of them sometimes feel very unreliable]
[Zhongli: In terms of universal rationality, this is indeed the case]
[Hu Tao: Okay, guest guest Zhongli, you actually said bad things about my hall master, I don’t want your salary this month]
[Zhongli: It’s been so long since I’ve been on the job, but I haven’t seen Maura yet]
[Paimon: Translation: I have never touched money, I am not interested in money]
...
"Now that you know that I am investigating in secret, you should have a new judgment about me, right? There is no point in questioning me or doubting me. As the supreme judge, you are still my subordinate, so you should obey me."
"You just need to believe in me as a god. No matter whether you can really convince yourself deep down, just do it! Anyway... it will definitely be fine... That's all I have to say, there is no need for us to talk about this anymore discuss."
"Ah, it's almost time for the performance at the opera house. Goodbye."
Seeing Funina's leaving figure, Villette felt a rage in her heart that she couldn't vent. (Tide, I have returned!)
Funina ran out the door and when she passed her by, Sora saw that she looked worried, as if she was deliberately hiding something.
...
"She was very flustered, and I don't know why. Discussions have been stalled time and time again, and we can no longer let the situation develop. But I don't understand, dialogue is the basis of communication. Why did she repeatedly refuse dialogue?"
Kong reminded: "Just asking questions may not be the answer. Funina must be made aware of the seriousness of the matter."
Everyone in the know can tell that Fu Nina is hiding a secret. The problem lies in her attitude. She probably won't reveal anything unless absolutely necessary. An environment needs to be created where she has no choice but to speak.
"Usually, people tell the truth when they face trial. Maybe we should let the Water Demon God see such an occasion."
Paimon was a little worried. Funina had watched many trials and was very good at avoiding questions. She would run away as soon as there was any trouble. How could we ensure that she could not escape?
[Kaia: Oh, are you judging the gods? It’s getting more and more interesting]
[Ying: A small cake is placed in the dock]
[Miko Yae: Why don't you ask me for help? Just do what she likes and trample on her feet what she likes. That's what you would usually say]
[Paimon:? ? ? 】
[Miko Yae: There was something Kage hid from me before, so I ate all the desserts she liked in front of her. She was so irritated that she didn’t want them anymore]
[Qi Liangliang: It’s hard to say that Master Yasou never went out at that time. The last time I went to Narukami Taisha Shrine, I smelled a burning smell]
[Miko Yae: You know too much! Little kitten, what do you want me to do with you? 】
[Qi Liangliang: Where am I, who am I, what am I going to do...]
...
"We need to think carefully and combine various forces to do everything possible. If possible, I would not like to assume this in any form. But... everything is to prevent the prophecy from happening. This is a bit cruel for her. , but the entire Fontaine is in crisis, [the information possessed by the gods] is too important, and it is very valuable to do so, we must take the risk."
Sora nodded, it looked like he needed help.
[Paimon: Time is no longer here, please help me]
[Kaia: Let’s look at the candidates. I think the Four Gods might be able to do it]
[Amber: Kaia, people who don’t know think you are going to launch a demon war and rebuild Kanria]
[Kaia: Kyria has not lost its country, nor does it need to be restored]
[Deinsreib:...]
[Ying: The path may not be wild, but it is definitely wild enough! 】
[Paimon: If we could really call Nasida and the others over, that would be a great sense of security]
[Nacida: It is unwise to interfere with other countries’ internal affairs]
[Wendy: I will not interfere with her plan]
[Keqing: We in Liyue respect the territorial integrity and respect the sovereignty of other countries]
[Ningguang: Seek truth from facts and keep pace with the times. Persist in serving the people wholeheartedly. Adhere to democratic centralism. Adhere to economic construction as the center. Adhere to the four basic principles. Adhere to reform and opening up. Adhere to the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence. In the future, everyone in Liyue will be like a dragon]
...
A few days later, somewhere in the quiet town of Baisong, on a ship...
"Speaking of which, hiding in a place like this, I'm sorry you guys thought of it..." Paimon's tone was full of surprise.
There is a reason for choosing this location. Baisong Town has just suffered a disaster and there are not many people around now. It is the most suitable place to open a small stove.
Linny on the side has been drinking tea since he just sat down. Leosley from Merlo Petersburg said that you like tea and we are friends.
"Ahem! Hear a few words from me, everyone! Or we can choose a friend at random to talk to you? How do you do?" Navia looked at Femini who was silent at the side.
Femini realized that Navia was talking about him and quickly shook her head in rejection.
"What about this one?"
Villette said calmly: "My words may turn this ship into an atmosphere like a trial court."
Navia sighed, "So, you see, it is up to the local big boss, me, Navia, to take charge of this matter! Now you can always focus on me, right?" "
Clolinde: "The intro is too long."
"It is indeed a bit... To put it simply, our mutual friend Traveler invites you to come over and discuss the next thing together, but what exactly is it... Well, let me tell you first, we will pool our efforts to create a complete set of [traps] .”
[Kaia: I feel like I’ve seen it before, like I’ve seen it somewhere before]
[Ke Lai: When discussing the sense of immediacy in rescuing Lord Grass God in Sumeru, last time it was rescue, this time it is trial, they are different but have the same purpose]
[Ying: Go find Alhaysen! 】
[Elhaysen: I’m off work and I won’t accept any private work]
[Paimon: Oh, I’ll get off work at that time. I don’t know what to say to you either]
[Ye Lan: I think this is good, I can feel more relaxed after work]
[Keqing: Tomorrow comes tomorrow, there are so many tomorrows, I live waiting for tomorrow, everything will be wasted. If you do more today, you can do less tomorrow]
[Hutao: You will die suddenly sooner or later. You can’t learn from Gan Yu, he is an immortal]
[Gan Yu: Actually, I have already got off work]
[Xiang Ling: Big news, Gan Yu actually left work early]
[Gan Yu: I stayed up late to finish everything.]
[Keqing: We agreed to work overtime and rest together, but I didn’t expect you to get involved secretly]
[Ying: As expected of a sweet and caring group, you guys are so cool]
...
Clolinde told the story of the Shadow Hunter to everyone present.
They are called hunters, but the objects they hunt are not animals, but various monsters left behind by King Guremus. There are no longer so many monsters in Fontaine today, and the shadow hunters have gradually disappeared into the sea of people, taking on other armed tasks. They left a unique hunting method to the Fontaine people.
If catching and handling is a trial of prey, then judging a high-ranking god requires a hundred times the courage of hunting.
Clolinde's metaphors are metaphors after all. No one would call their behavior hunting, that is not what they should be doing at this moment, and there is absolutely no such serious relationship between them and Funina. All that was needed was the secret she had hidden. It was too disrespectful to explore the secrets of God, but in order for Fontaine not to sink into the water as predicted, everyone chose to fight.
There are no hunters and prey, but there are [traps].
Everyone needs [Traps].
[Paimon: I suddenly noticed that Linny seemed to be particularly excited. Is it my imagination? 】
[Kaia: Since Linny was tried at the beginning and has always held a grudge, hunting Funina seemed particularly happy]
[Funina: Suddenly I felt a cold feeling on the back of my neck]
[Amber: Xumi saves the grass god, Feng Dan catches the god, I wonder what the Fire Country is like? 】
[Paimon: Vulcan, what do you think? 】
[Bennett: I’m not the god of fire, don’t look at me like that]
[Kaia: Although we all know it’s a nickname, I really want to see the expression on Nata Vulcan’s face at this moment]
[Ying: How come no one from Nata has come out to speak? 】
[System: That’s because I didn’t pull it and I was upgrading it recently]
[Paimon: Don’t you have Nata’s save file? 】
[System: I will invest in MiHoYo Computer Room]
...
Thorny Rose Stronghold
"It's been really hard these days, and we have done too much... Phew! I didn't expect that the discussion could take a long time, and those guys were quite energetic. I thought everyone would at least be scared... Some people were indeed scared, Honest Femini. The others showed surprise at most." Paimon complained while stretching.
Kong looked at Paimon and said softly: "Does Paimon have any information?"
Paimon shook his head, "I don't have much experience in these things. However, as long as you are here, I believe we will succeed. Because to me, no matter how reliable others are, no one is more trustworthy than you. Well! Hehehe...eh?"
"Did you pour tea just now? Why didn't I see it?"
Kong shook his head. He had been talking to Paimon and had no time to pour tea.
Strangely, a cup of steaming tea appeared out of thin air on the table.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just drinking tea with you, I didn't say anything just now."
[Wutao: Ahhh! The cup spoke! 】
[Sutang: There is a ghost! ! 】
[Navia: There is a ghost! ! 】
[Mona: Why are you panicking? That’s not a ghost, it’s a witch N]
[Kaia: The color of this tea cup looks like it is made of Diluc’s clothes]
[Keqing: I can understand a little bit about talking in people's minds out of thin air, but she said she was drinking tea with you, but no one was seen]
[Ying: Why do I suddenly feel that my brother and Paimon in the video have a good relationship]
[Xiang Ling: This is not the key. My guess is indeed correct. The Witches' Club is full of big guys! 】
[Ying: Is it the ability to become invisible? I also want to learn]
[Seno: Witch N, referred to as Little N]
[Tinari:...]
...
The sudden sound made Paimon scream and tremble.
"Don't you remember my voice?"
Paimon recalled carefully that this voice seemed to have appeared during Xumi's time, an inexplicable voice coming from the sky.
"[Coming from the sky inexplicably], your description seems wrong, but also seems right. Just like last time, you were confused, and I sensed that confusion, so I came here. Guiding passers-by is a sweetness that I can't give up. Like.”
Sora asked calmly: "Who are you? What do you want from us?"
