Chapter 107 Proposing a duel
"As you can see, travelers from foreign lands have come to my country. Come, let us send them our blessings." As Fucaros finished speaking, warm applause and cheers rang out all around.
At this time, Conan thought of Ayumi's previous description and felt that it was right. She really was like a big star, but she didn't look like a god at all.
"You don't look like a god at all."
Conan turned to look at the person who spoke his thoughts, and it was indeed Haibara.
Huihara: "If I hadn't heard that this water god really lived for 500 years, I really couldn't equate him with a god."
"500 years?!" Conan was a little surprised.
Since the other party has lived for 500 years, then in this game setting, the other party should indeed be a god, although he is indeed somewhat different from the god in one's imagination.
Fukaros: "I heard that you came here to solve the prophecy problem in my country. I admit your good intentions, but you don't have to worry at all. I, Fukaros, am here in Fontaine, and this prophecy is nothing to worry about. So, strangers, if you have nothing else, you can leave."
Conan became anxious when he heard what Fucaros said. He knew that this must be a means used by "Noah's Ark" to prevent him and others from entering Fontaine. Once they were expelled by the water god, they would have failed to pass the level.
But is there any way to make the water god change his mind?
"Lord Fukaros, please don't rush to decide to drive us away. Although you don't need our help given your ability, we still want to provide some insignificant help. Therefore, in order to prove our strength to you, let's have a wonderful duel."
At this time, Xia Xi saw that the others were at a loss, and thought of some of the processes about the Fontaine Trial that he had inquired about before. He guessed that the background of this game should be the same as Fontaine in Teyvat, so he stood up and shouted loudly to the water god.
Conan was a little confused. Why did they have to fight to prove their strength? To solve the prophecy, shouldn't it be based on reasoning ability?
Although Conan and the others are familiar with Xia Xi's strength, the person they are facing now is a god. Is it really okay to fight against her?
"Xia Xi..." Xiaolan pulled Xia Xi's clothes from behind and looked at her with some concern.
Xia Xi looked back at Xiaolan, signaling to her not to worry, as she knew what was going on.
When Mao Lilan saw Xia Xi's confidence, she put aside some of her worries and stopped trying to stop her.
When the people around heard that someone was actually challenging the Lord Water God to a duel, instead of feeling offended, they all cheered in anticipation.
"Ahahaha, very good. You dare to challenge a god like me to a duel, strangers. I commend your courage!" Fucaros laughed loudly. "Just consider it as a reward. I agree to have an epic duel with you."
After Xia Xi spoke, Conan paid special attention to the reaction of the God of Water. After all, he is a god, and now that someone has offended him, he doesn't know whether the god will be angry.
Therefore, he noticed that Fucaros's expression changed slightly when he heard Xia Xi's invitation to a duel. Although the other party quickly covered it up with a smile, Conan believed that he was not mistaken.
This Lord Water God seems to be reluctant to fight?
Conan was a little unsure of his own thoughts. After all, the other party was a god, so why would he agree to a duel if he didn't want to? No one could force him to do that.
When Xia Xi heard that Fucaros agreed to a duel, she got into position and prepared to fight.
Conan noticed that when the water god saw Sister Xia Xi preparing to take action, he took a step back in surprise and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Huihara: "This water god seems to be afraid of a duel?"
Conan: "It seems you noticed it too."
Huihara: "Well, although the opponent tried his best to conceal it, it was still slightly visible. It seems that this duel today will not go on."
As expected, the Water God later decided that a single duel was not very entertaining and replaced the duel with a showdown in court.
Taking the recent disappearance of a girl in Fontaine as the stage, integrate all the clues about the case and find out the criminal and his method of committing the crime at the Opique Opera House three days later. At the same time, under the questioning of the God of Water, win the trial and confirm your result under the final oracle of the cardinal to prove your reasoning ability.
"That's right, that's the way it should be!"
"Yeah, that's what makes it interesting!"
"Lord Water God, your idea is great!"
Listening to the cheers and anticipation of the crowd around them, the players were all a little confused as to why these people were so happy to hear about the trial. And what was the meaning of the confrontation in the court, a confrontation between two lawyers?
Although they were a little confused, it was clear that Fukaros's proposal allowed them to enter Fontaine. And generally speaking, there would be no irrelevant plots in the game, which meant that the missing girl case was related to their clearance conditions, so it was necessary to find out the truth.
Therefore, everyone did not hesitate and directly agreed to the Water God's proposal for a court confrontation.
After hearing the other party's agreement, Fucaros didn't say anything more. He left one person behind and said that he was responsible for taking them to understand the case, and then left with the guard team.
For some reason, Xiaolan always felt that the Lord of Water left in a hurry. Was there something wrong?
But she didn't think too much about it. Something that could make the Water God so anxious must be very important. This was not what they should care about now. The most urgent task was to enter Fontaine to collect clues first.
As their group of two adults and nine children officially entered Fontainebleau, they were soon shocked by the scene before them.
As people said before, Fontaine is a kingdom of water, with fountains and water flowing everywhere, and cities connected by water systems and ships. Strange robots can be seen everywhere on the roadside, patrolling or charging, and even occasionally you can see some short people with short arms and legs shuttling among the crowd, some working, some enjoying themselves, no different from ordinary Fontaine people.
"This is just like a scene from a fantasy." Ran Mao Li looked at the scene in amazement.
"Yes, perhaps this kind of dreamlike scene can only be seen in holographic games." Xia Xi agreed.
Huiyuan next to her didn't pay any attention to what the people around her were saying. She kept looking at the little people walking in front of her. These little people looked strange, obviously they were other species. She was really curious about their body structure. It would be great if she could find a way to examine them.
Huiyuan moved her fingers, wanting to do something, but without any instruments or equipment, she could only give up with regret.
