Chapter 747 Petrich
Ships heading to Fontaine can only be advised to wait patiently, because without the airship sent by Fontaine, cargo and tourists will not be able to board Fontaine, which is located on the "Waterfall".
Even if we arrive, we won't be allowed to go ashore. How can that be justified?
Su was very decisive, "Let's sneak across!"
Dive in, then climb up!
Kong pressed his forehead. Su was not a person who particularly followed the rules.
How could a mere waterfall and a high cliff stop her?
Paimon advised: "Fontaine is a country that values the law. They are very strict about this. If you are caught sneaking across the border, you will go to jail!"
Everyone entering Fontaine must have their facial information recorded by the security agency. If someone enters the city without registering at customs, the security agency will scan them and hunt them down!
The prison cell at Fontaine is very scary. I heard that it was built in the dark and deep sea! Paimeng didn't want to be in prison, let alone such a scary prison!
Knowing that Su didn't want to drift boredly on the rocking boat for 15 days while listening to the noise, Paimeng thought for a moment and said, "Roudeng Port is a major trading port with a large cargo throughput and passenger flow, so we need to stay here for so long. Otherwise, let's go to Hailu Port instead."
"Hailuo Port, which is far away from the Xumi Desert, has a small flow of people, so the customs clearance speed must be faster. And you can rest in Petliko Town on the way. It is a famous resort town in Fontaine, and it is said to be very charming!"
The more Paimon thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible. "We can sail from Xumi to there and stop at Petrico to rest. That's the territory of Fontaine. Maybe there's an airship that goes directly to the port of Fontaine."
After discussion, the team of travelers teleported directly. When it was time for meal delivery the next day, the crew discovered that three passengers were missing and reported it to the captain in panic.
"Newbie, don't panic! There wasn't any murder or body dumping at sea," the captain said, pointing to a room without any signs of a struggle. "It's likely that they couldn't stand the wait and paddled away in a small dinghy in the middle of the night. It's just a basic adventurer's move."
After the captain calmed the crew and asked them not to tell anyone to avoid causing panic and confusion, he returned to his cabin and sent a telegram to Fontaine using a telegraph.
The telegram message quickly reached the top leaders of Fontaine.
"What?! Left?! No, no, maybe they changed their route...Haileau Harbor! It must be Haileau Harbor!"
After a burst of hurried footsteps, the door was pushed open with a "crash" and the girl, who had regained her spirits, spoke in a high-pitched voice.
"Guards! Prepare for the Helu Harbor rehearsal!"
——*——*——
The group of travelers that Fontaine's top leaders are waiting for are boating on the sea.
Su leaned weakly on the rudder, "How long will it take to arrive..."
From the passion at the beginning to the mechanical inertia of the current movements, it is clear that she is bored.
"Come on, don't stop. If you don't move forward, you'll fall behind," Kong encouraged the girl beside him while pedaling at a steady speed, "Just think of it as exercise."
Sue: "I've exercised enough. My abs are almost popping out!"
Paimon, who was sleeping in the back cabin, wiped his mouth dazedly and sat up, "What chicken? I want to eat chicken wings!"
The whole cabin was silent, and then the girl's dark voice was heard, "Chicken wings... Do I look like chicken wings?"
That must be impossible to resemble.
Paimon wiped the sweat off the girl's face and brought her drinks to calm her down, as she was pedaling with resentment. Then he actively used his abilities and responsibilities as a guide and flew to a high place on the boat to guide his friends.
Paimon said excitedly, "We're almost there! I can already see the top of the mountain on the island! Come on, let's make the final sprint!"
After a final sprint of two hours, the traveler team's boat finally reached the island where the town of Petliko was located, moving at full speed.
Sora helped the girl, whose legs were weak from pedaling, off the boat and looked around to observe the environment where everyone was.
The weather is very good today. There are no clouds or fog blocking the sea surface. We can see Hailu Harbor and Dam Waterfall from afar.
The town of Petliko is located between the mountains and the sea. The terrain is a raised slope, and under the sea surface near the shore is hard rock instead of mud.
The terrain of Fontaine is nearly a thousand meters higher than that of Petliko Town. If the water rises again or the dam breaks, the entire town will disappear in an instant.
"Although it's called a town, it used to be very big. It was once the territory of a duke. Legend has it that there was an ancient castle!" Paimon sighed, "But after the flood, most of the area was submerged in the sea, and the remaining area can only be called a town."
"The people here are very artistic! There are many playwrights, performers, conductors and so on. Musical instruments are also produced in abundance here. I heard that children in this town can play several instruments!"
The air in Petlico Town was filled with the fragrance of art, which was just right for Su to be influenced by.
While the tour guide Paimon was explaining the story of the town of Petliko, Su was doing stretching exercises. After her sore limbs had almost recovered, the group headed towards the town on the higher ground.
On the way, we encountered the Seven Heavenly Statue of the God of Water.
The image of the water god is a long-haired girl wearing a long skirt and a headscarf, holding a strangely shaped cross-shaped cane sword. Water drops hang on both ends of the hilt, which looks like a balance.
Sora: "Does this mean justice and judgment?"
Paimon: "Fontaine is a country of law."
Su has her own reading comprehension. "This is called "Do you see the sword in my hand? The word of this goddess is the law!" Either you are sent to prison by the law, or you are sent to the grave by force."
null:……
Paimon:...
The water god statue, which originally looked gentle and elegant, suddenly took on some of the arrogance and naivety of a rough man after Su's explanation.
Illusion! It must be an illusion! I can't let Su lead me astray.
Paimon wiped his sweat, "Please, Su, don't extrapolate and make such a weird interpretation. I would like to thank you on behalf of the Water God."
Now that we have seen the statue of the water god, the next thing to watch is of course the traditional performance!
Under Paimon's expectant gaze, Su and Kong reached out and touched the water statue.
A blue glow burst out and then scattered, and the two successfully resonated with the water statue.
Paimon: "It's so bright this time! It seems like the God of Water is looking forward to our coming to Fontaine, hehehe."
Su felt the amount of elements increase significantly, and while he was satisfied, he couldn't help but envy Kong, "I also want a color-changing accessory."
But I don’t want earrings that require piercing or stiff armor!
Paimon changed the subject, "Okay, okay, let's look at accessories next time we go shopping. Fontaine is very famous in the fashion world, so there must be a lot of nice things."
Su: "Okay, I just agreed to order new clothes for you and Kong, so you two must dress up nicely."
Paimon is so cute! Sora is so pretty! It would be a shame if they didn't dress up.
Sora quickly changed the subject, "Speaking of which, after activating the water element, I had an idea for a new elemental technique."
