"This is asking for trouble. I have to build a crazy fire tower for fun."
"Don't!"
The young master pounced and pressed down Yu Jin's raised hands. He also saw the rising sea level, but compared to this, the thing in Yu Jin's mouth was obviously more terrifying.
Especially the "Dianhuo Tower", which makes people feel creepy when they hear it.
"Maybe there's a crack under the sea that's letting water in. We can go down and take a look, and close the crack."
The young master suggested.
"I just looked at the bottom of the sea, there was nothing there, the water just rose up for no apparent reason."
Ember responded seriously. He had originally thought so, but after seeing that there were no cracks on the seabed, he decided to boil the sea.
"Then... maybe it's just the rising seabed, and the sea level is just rising along with the seabed!" The young man racked his brains and immediately gave another reason.
It was Yu Jin's turn to be silent now. He closed his eyes and remained quiet for a while. Just when the young master thought he had given up, Yu Jin's head suddenly rose up again.
"I asked the tree, and it said no, the ground is still this thickness." Ember looked confident.
"Why do you have such a strong hatred towards water?" asked the young master.
"You should have never been drowned." Yu Jin responded indifferently.
"You're just talking nonsense?" The young master didn't know where to start complaining.
Just as the two were in a stalemate, the roar of an engine suddenly came from the distance.
They were speedboats, leaving streaks of snow-white waves on the sea, and on each speedboat there were many people who looked like guards, looking around.
"The paddle can be moved without people, so cool!" Yu Jin couldn't help but praise the speedboat when he saw it shuttling across the sea.
This speed is much faster than those human-rowed boats.
"Slow down! Can't you see these ships are coming towards us?"
"real or fake?"
After hearing this, Yu Jin observed carefully. Faintly, he also heard shouting from afar.
"You two, we suspect you of littering... throwing excrement! Please stay where you are and wait for investigation!"
"I repeat, please stay where you are and wait for investigation!"
"Leave a ghost behind! Run!"
When the young master heard this, he immediately grabbed the embers and ran away.
As a result, a large amount of sand and dust flew up, blocking the view. By the time the people on the speedboat reacted, Yu Jin and Gongzi had already disappeared.
……
"stare--"
"No one, come out!"
"Didn't you tell me not to go in the water?"
After a burst of bubbles, the young man's head rose from the bottom of the sea.
"Damn, I forgot! I should have thrown you over here directly." Yu Jin slapped his head and said with regret.
"No, look, I've been in the water for so long, and I'm fine, right?" The young man had obviously vaguely sensed the relationship between the big whale and the sea level, but this time there was no unusual change after being in the water for so long, which made him doubt his guess again.
"Okay, come up quickly!"
After saying this, the two of them jumped out of the water and ran to the ground.
After running and diving, Yu Jin and Gong Zi have now sneaked to a port in Fontaine.
Judging from the yellow sand and towering barren mountains across the port, this should be the place where Fontaine and Xumi are connected as mentioned by the young master.
As for the speedboat behind them? It had long been thrown away. Although the speedboat was fast, it could not keep up with the speed of the young master's legs.
"Huh..., we are finally in Fontaine. What are you going to do next?"
The young master looked around and then asked the ember.
"I don't know, just wandering around?"
Yu Jin scratched his head and walked out of the corner to the street.
In the center of this port is a towering building, with a large number of viaducts extending from both sides of the building, leading to nowhere.
This is both a port and a station. There aren't many people on the street, and because of the function of this place, most people are in a hurry.
There were also some people walking leisurely, which made Yu Jin suspect that they might be a minority of locals.
"Click! Click! Click!"
A loud sound of gear coupling was heard in front, and then Yu Jin saw a forward mechanism appear in front of him.
"Hmm... a miniature war golem?" Yu Jin circled the mechanical puppet a few times, and then connected it with the war golem in his mind.
However, the war golem was created for only one purpose - that is killing, and this puppet should be mainly used for suppression.
"Tsk, not as handsome as the golem puppet."
After taking a few glances, Yu Jin gave his evaluation of the mechanism.
"Are you going to hang around here all day?" The young master's voice came from behind Yu Jin, startling him.
"I thought you left a long time ago?!"
“The thing is, I don’t know where I should go.”
Hearing this, the young master spread his hands with a constipated look on his face. We have come to Fontaine, but how can we find the whale in our dreams?
He closed his eyes slightly and felt that the entire Fontaine was responding.
Everyone is responding, which is the same as no response.
"Maybe I will end up like you, wandering around Fontaine." At this point, the young master can only try his luck.
Maybe things have changed in some corner?
"Good luck to you then. Besides, who told you I was wandering around?"
Yu Jin nodded and continued walking. This time he did not stop to look at anything new, but went straight to the notice board.
"Hey, why is another one missing?"
"Hey, did you see that? Clorinde will be making her debut in a few days. Do you want to go and see her? She's the strongest duel agent!"
"Huh?"×2
The notice board never disappoints, and Fontaine proved this once again. The information on it aroused the interest of both Yu Jin and Gong Zi.
However, they were interested in different things. Yu Jin was interested in the case named "Missing Girl Case" on the notice.
It was said that this case had caused more than a dozen girls to go missing, and it had spanned more than a decade, causing public panic.
The young master was even more interested in the so-called "strongest duel agent" - he was now stopping passers-by to ask them to introduce Clorinde.
"Amazing, there is no clue at all."
Yu Jin didn’t care at all about “duel agent” or “the strongest”. He just felt it was extremely magical when he looked at the notice.
Committing a crime in a country of justice without leaving any clues, should we say that the perpetrator was very skilled, or that Fontaine was just too incompetent?
"Isn't it? Otherwise it wouldn't be so worrying." When the people next to him heard Yu Jin's words, they immediately echoed a few words.
"The most common place is Fontaine? Should I go there?"
"That's a great coincidence. I was just planning to go to Fontaine."
When the young master heard Yu Jin's muttering, he couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder.
"What do you want to do?" Yu Jin glanced at the young master.
"Of course, I'm going to have a fight with Clorinde, the strongest absolute agent!" The young master laughed loudly towards the sky. He had already started looking forward to it.
The people around him heard his arrogant words and quietly moved away from him. Want to fight with the duel agent? What kind of lunatic?
Fighting with duel agents is not a competitive game or something like that. It is a life-and-death battle to some extent, and people will die.
"I seem to have heard that the prerequisite for fighting a duel agent is that you have committed a crime?! Do you want to be put in solitary confinement?"
When Yu Jin heard this, he immediately captured the young master, just like he did in Liyue Yujingtai.
"Stop, stop, stop! We can pay for it!" The young master hurriedly shook his head, fearing that Yu Jin would take him to the Zhilu Court.
"Then why don't you go to the Adventurer's Guild and ask me to beat you up?"
"..."
"Haha..., it seems to be true."
After he finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Chapter 762: Disadvantages of the Patrol Ship
2024-07-07
"Welcome aboard the Clementine Line patrol ship. This route will depart from Port Helu and end at Fontaine..."
On the towering waterway, a rail patrol ship was moving slowly forward. At the front of the ship was a small commentary platform.
A strange little guy above is explaining the various features of this line to the passengers on both sides of the patrol boat.
From her unique appearance and unusual body shape, we can tell that this diligent little navigator is not a human, but a race unique to Fontaine - the Melusine.
As a new commentator, Aibel was very conscientious about her job. But when she saw someone staring at her, she immediately became nervous.
"Um... everyone, why are you all looking at me like this? Could it be... could it be that my explanation is not good?"
Worried, the green, furry horns on both sides of Aibel's work hat began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Uh... I don't think so. Compared to the beautiful scenery of Fontaine, I think Melusin is more attractive."
The young master glanced at the embers. It was just a creature unique to Fontainebleau. Was it necessary to be so curious about it?
Well... well, it's actually still quite magical. Even though Young Master was criticizing Yu Jin in his heart, his own gaze would occasionally turn towards Aibel in front of him.
"Ahem, that's true. Aibei'er, do you know how Meilushin was born?"
