Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

"Hello, this guest, would you like to order something?" Crito, the owner of the snack shop, saw the guest approaching and greeted him warmly, "Would you like to buy some chocolate bars and cream cookies to take back to your family? Try it, it’s all freshly baked, guaranteed to be healthy and delicious, and it’s cold now, so you don’t have to worry about melting on the road.”

"Are there drinks here?" Wu Ye asked.

"Yes! Can Fengda do it?"

"Okay, what's the flavor?"

Crito moved a large box of Fontaine from the shelf and placed it on the front cabinet. "There are many flavors. In addition to bubble orange flavor, there are also flavors such as lime, mango, strawberry and peach. These are developed by the Fontaine Academy of Sciences." The product guarantees a refreshing and sweet taste!”

"Then let's buy ten bottles of bubble orange, mango and peach flavors. How much is the total?"

"Okay, let me do the math. A bottle of Fengda costs 160 molas. I see that you are a stranger to me as a guest. It must be your first time to buy something from me, right? Okay, I'll count you 150 molas for a bottle. So you Just pay me 4500 molas."

"Well, thank you." Wu Ye handed over the banknote with a face value of 10,000 Morads.

Crito took the banknote and said with a smile: "You're welcome. Just remember to visit our store next time you want to buy drinks or snacks."

"By the way, boss, I have a question for you." Wu Ye pointed to the robots that were clearing the snow on the street. "I think these robots can work non-stop all day long. I heard from other Fontaine people before. It’s said that there is a special energy that is their source of power, is that right?”

Crito, who was picking out the Fengda that Wu Ye wanted, nodded when he heard this, "That's right."

"Then how is this energy generated?"

"Well..." Crito stopped, "It might be a bit complicated to directly introduce this energy system to outsiders."

"To put it simply, the energy that Fontaine people use daily in the city basically comes from the 'Law Compensation Mixed Energy', which is a kind of energy generated by judgment."

Wu Ye raised his eyebrows: "Judgement can also generate energy? What is the principle of this?"

"Well...I don't know how to explain it specifically. It's probably...during the trial in court, the Cardinal will collect people's belief in justice and convert it into energy to supply Quan Feng. Dan uses.”

"Cardinal Decree," Wu Ye recalled what Liam had said, "Is this an institution used for trial? I didn't expect it to have additional functions."

"That's right, this is a judicial institution created by the god Fukalos himself. It has been placed at the Opicile Opera House for almost five hundred years."

A flash of inspiration flashed in Wu Ye's mind, and he felt that he had grasped the key information.

Humanity's belief is the power of the human world, and this power can transform the power of the light world, which is the element.

Normally, the gods of Teyvat can rely on human faith to gain power, but the water god Fukalos relies on the oracle and ruling cardinal to use the power generated by faith as energy for Quanfontein to use.

Then if Fukalos just wanted to provide energy to Quan Fontaine, why didn't he just use his own divine power instead of going through many twists and turns to create a judgment machine?

Could it be said that Fontaine's energy must be the mixed energy generated by the Cardinal's decree? In other words, the Cardinal's decree can more easily and efficiently collect people's belief in justice in Fontaine?

unreasonable.

Solar energy, wind energy, water energy and electric energy can all become energy sources, but the Teyvat people have no awareness to develop these energy sources for the time being, so hybrid energy is not the only energy source that exists.

At the same time, the oracle ruled that the cardinal is just a machine, not a god itself. It should not be able to automatically collect the power of the human world, unless the water god lives in it, or... it is a water god?

Wu Ye shook his head to get rid of this ridiculous idea.

Seeing that Wu Ye was suddenly in a daze, Crito quickly reminded, "Guest, guest? Guest!"

"oh oh!"

"This is the change for you. Please keep it. There is also a box of thirty bottles of Fengta on the counter. Don't forget to take it as well."

Wu Ye did not accept the money immediately, but just asked: "You just said that the Cardinal's decree was in the Opécle Opera House. Is this machine placed under the stage of the Opera House?"

Crito held the money in one hand and scratched his head with the other, "It should be, when I attended the trial before, the huge machine was raised from the ground of the Opera House."

"OK, thank you, boss. You don't need to give me this money. I'll treat it as a reward for answering my questions. See you again when you have the chance." After saying that, Wu Ye picked up the box containing Fengda and turned around to leave.

"Goodbye, guest!" Crito shouted to Wu Ye's back with Mora in hand, "The road is slippery, please pay attention to safety!"

Wu Ye didn't look back, he just raised his right hand and waved, and in the next moment, he disappeared into the cold windy street.
