Supreme Bishop of Fontaine

It can be said that in this situation, as long as Nashida has the idea of ​​escaping, she can immediately occupy the body of the Great Sage of the Order and unlock the door for herself.

As long as they leave the place of imprisonment, what resistance will those mortals have against the gods?

So let's get straight to the point.

The reason why the grass goddess Nashida has been imprisoned for five hundred years is purely voluntary.

Of course, it is not entirely correct to say that it was voluntary. After all, Nashida herself certainly did not want to be imprisoned forever, but... she did not know what anger was yet, nor did she think that there was anything wrong with the actions of the House of Lords, so she was never able to escape.

She felt that she was still immature and indeed far inferior to the previous Grass God, the Great Compassionate Tree King. Therefore, she felt that it was understandable that the Court of Discipline imprisoned her, did not want her to interfere with Xumi, and still missed the Great Compassionate Tree King.

It was in this kind of lost mood that Nashida endured loneliness, studied hard through the void, and secretly protected and guided the people of Xumi, hoping that one day she could become a god worthy of Xumi, and when that day came, the Order would surely take the initiative to release her - Nashida now held such a naive idea, so she had not escaped.

After learning this from Ye, although Finina felt sorry for Nashida, the naive god, and did not think that Nashida's choice was correct, she respected her choice.

This is the path you have chosen, and no one else can interfere.

At least, while Nashida still retains the freedom to choose to "escape at any time if she wants to", others are not qualified to interfere with Nashida's choice.

If Nashida ever loses the freedom to choose, then Fernina will definitely not sit idly by.

Although she herself has no power, she still has the Supreme Bishop and the Supreme Inquisitor!

As one of the seven rulers of the mortal world, although Finina's life was more painful and stressful than Nashida's every day, she was also luckier than Nashida. At least she didn't have any traitors under her.

Ahem, I accidentally got distracted by the topic of Xumi.

Funina quickly collected her thoughts and recalled the next lines in the script.

——However, at this moment, seeing that the report was almost finished, Ye suddenly changed the final script.

He still stared at the corner of Fernina's mouth and said lightly, "Lady Fernina, there is something I have been concerned about for a long time, but I don't know whether I should say it."

Funina looked at Ye in surprise: "What's the matter?"

There's no such line in the script.

"Lady Finina, there is a piece of cake on the right corner of your mouth."

"........."

Funina was silent for ten seconds, her face gradually flushing red. Then she stood up instantly, wiping the corners of her mouth vigorously with the back of her hand. She immediately looked at the camera and cried out with tears in her eyes, "Stop filming! Cut this part and reshoot it all! Reshoot!!!"

Chapter 4 The Fontaine Triumvirate

It is impossible to remake it. How can such a good program be remade?

Ye directly asked Baoer to upload the video.

Then the players in the other world saw it immediately.

"Isn't the Water God so cute?"

"Is this God?"

"I wonder if it can be this cute in games?"

"I say, shouldn't the focus now be on the amount of information contained in this PV? Unlike most of the previous PVs, this PV is clearly laying the groundwork for the plot."

"What's the point of foreshadowing? This game hasn't even had an internal beta, and we're still unclear about the plot and setting. I can tell there's foreshadowing, but I have no idea what it's all about."

"It's like the Footprints PV. When you watch it, you feel it's really cool, but you know the results but not the reasons."

"Anyway, it's going to be online tomorrow. After I finish the main story of version 1.0, I'll rewatch these two PVs. I should have new thoughts by then."

"I'm still a little skeptical about whether this game is real. MiHoYo, which claims to be the world's first open-world game, completely appeared out of nowhere. They haven't even released a game before, and not a single employee has appeared yet. The 1.0 preview livestream only featured the game's characters and voice actors."

"Why should I doubt this? Genshin Impact is a free game, and it doesn't cost anything to download."

"That's what makes me doubt it. How can there be free games in this world?"

"So what's there to be suspicious about? It's free! Can't we just uninstall it if it's fake advertising?"

"If Genshin Impact is truly a free, open-world game, as miHoYo claims, then the R&D budget must be at least several hundred million. How could it possibly be free? Doesn't miHoYo make money?"

"I think it's possible that it's free to download, but if you want to play the next chapter, you have to pay, just like in some games where you can't defeat the boss if you don't spend money to buy equipment."

"Oh my god, are you a genius?"

"Yes, that must be the case. After all, there is no way in the world that there are really free games."

"That's fine too, as long as the game is fun."

Ye didn't pay too much attention to the discussions about the other world. After filming the PV for Astraea and letting her go to Mondstadt, Ye got down to business.

In the next month, Ye was preparing to temporarily hand over his work to the right person while preparing his travel plans.

Of course, I also didn’t forget to relieve stress through dreaming at night.

It's not just Funina. Although Ye uses Funina to relieve stress at least once a week, Ye is not the kind of man who would hang himself on a tree, so he has lived a very relaxing and happy life in the past few months.

Ah, all the stress is gone, it's great.

Sure enough, compared to Baoer’s game theory, Wuming’s dream theory is the real stress-relieving tool!

With such sighs in his heart and having already made all the preparations, Ye walked into Funina's tea house.

This is usually the place where the one person, one god and one dragon in charge of Fontaine hold meetings.

Because Funina felt that simply holding a meeting was too boring, she prepared such a room and would prepare refreshments that the person, the god, and the dragon liked before the meeting.

Of course, tea and snacks are only prepared for Funina, and all of them are the best snacks from various countries, what a spendthrift woman.

Besides that, Villette wasn't much better.

The water prepared for Navelette is usually filtered water from all over Teyvat - the transportation cost is at least ten thousand times more expensive than the water itself. Every time I see Navelette drinking water, I really want to kick him.

Is that water you're drinking? It's money!

In order to ensure that the Supreme Inquisitor of Fontaine can drink such clean water from all over Teyvat every day, the salaries of thousands of water dragons are so high that it makes Ye's scalp tingle.

You know, Teyvat is not a safe place, and there are dangers everywhere. The members of the Water Dragon Tribe who can travel all over Teyvat and even fetch water from extremely dangerous places are naturally skilled and well-paid. Ye thought about it - no, he still wanted to kick him!

If it weren't for the fact that Villette's contribution to Fontaine and his importance far outweighed the funds, Ye would never have signed or stamped the agreement.

Hmm? You asked Funina and Violet, both of them told you what happened that night? What would they prepare for him during his meeting?

Haha, of course Ye couldn't spend as much money as the two of them, so what was prepared for Ye were just various snacks and soda.

Picking up a skewer, Ye looked at the crystal shrimp stuck on it with satisfaction.

The current market price of this kind of crystal shrimp is only three hundred Mora per pound. I will eat this tonight. What an affordable snack!

Ye never wasted money like Funina and Villette, and he only ate these cheap and filling snacks, so he hated their extravagance and waste very much.

But there was no way, since one of them was the water god of Fontaine and the other was the highest judge of Fontaine. Ye could only sigh helplessly.

Sigh, then eat the crystal shrimp.

Not bad, although it is cheap, it is really delicious.

"Ah! Isn't this a crystal shrimp?"

Funina looked at the crystal shrimp on Ye's plate with surprise.

"Yes, that's right. It's only 300 Mora per pound on the market now."

Ye emphasized the cheapness of the crystal shrimp, wanting to make Funina feel ashamed.

"Is it already possible to reproduce in large numbers?"

Funina reached out and grabbed one from Ye's plate, and said happily while eating:

"When I first ate it, didn't you say it would take at least five years to achieve mass production? Oh, right, I remember, Ye, you allocated money to the Fontainebleau Research Institute again, right? Not bad, not bad. Although I thought you were a bit wasteful at first, now that I eat this, I feel that the 1 billion Mora was indeed well spent."

At the request of the Supreme Bishop, the Fontaine Academy of Sciences spent a total of one billion Mora as research and development funds to successfully breed and mass-produce the latest variety of Teyvat, the crystal shrimp. It is only sold for 300 Mora per pound. How much love does it show for the people!

Ye was moved by himself, and then quickly changed the subject: "Stop talking nonsense and talk about business."

"I still don't know what I'm going to say in this meeting."

While eating, Funina asked:

"Are you planning to allocate funds to the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences to develop new ingredients?"

"It costs money, but it's not about this. It's about Inazuma."

Ye said calmly:

"Lady Finina, I would like to request a personal mission to Inazuma."

Chapter 5: Diplomatic Mission to Inazuma

"Going to Inazuma?"

Hearing Ye's words, Funina was stunned for a moment, then put down the cake and looked serious:

"Inazuma seems to be in seclusion right now. The situation is complicated, right?"

"Yes. General Raiden, one of the Seven Midgards of Teyvat along with Lady Finina, has issued the Eye Hunting Order after closing the country. The atmosphere in Inazuma is extremely depressing, and with the rebels, it's a complete mess."

"If that's the case, then don't go! You've only left Fontaine twice in all these years, and those two times were to Xumi and Liyue. Xumi has no gods, and Liyue..."

When mentioning Liyue, Funina suddenly became gnashed-teethed.

"That Rock God who wanted to poach me really admires you, so there's no danger. But as for Inazuma... the Thunder God there is not easy to talk to. He prefers to solve problems directly with force. It's not that easy to take advantage of the situation and do something."

"You misunderstood, Lady Finina. My trip to Inazuma this time is a true diplomatic mission, different from my trips to Xumi and Liyue. Therefore, I will not provoke General Lei Dian."

During the trip to Xumi, Ye bullied the Order of the Gods to the point that they had been unable to breathe for hundreds of years, and now they are still being drained of their life by Fontaine. As for Liyue... At that time, Ye had a small economic conflict with the Rock God Morax, so Ye later went to negotiate with Morax. Anyway, the final result was good.

Just as Finina said, the Rock King admired Ye very much, so there was no danger. The two of them could even be said to have become friends.

From this aspect, Finina's worries are justified. After all, General Thunder is different from the Rock King. She is really difficult to talk to, and at the same time, her strength is still extremely powerful.

Even if it is Navelette, the current Navelette will never be a match for General Thunder. Even if it is Navelette who regained the complete power of the ancient dragon in the original plot, it is hard to say that she is stronger than General Thunder - this can be answered by comparing the battle plots between Traveler, Tartaglia, Star-Eating Whale, Skirmishers and Navelette.

A traveler with two elements can defeat Tartaglia, the fully armed demon king, but a traveler with four elements still cannot defeat the scattered soldiers who have become false gods. They must rely on the power of Nashida to help them with the experience of thousands of dream battles.

Then, what is the combat power comparison between Tartaglia and Villette and the Planet-Eating Whale?

Although he was killed instantly by Navelette when he activated the Demon King Armor, Tartaglia still injured Navelette. When Tartaglia had the Demon King Armor fully activated, he could fight with the Star-Eating Whale for a long time. From this we can see that the Star-Eating Whale's hard power is actually not that strong, at least far inferior to the Demon God. It is just difficult to kill because of its special nature.

At the same time, we can also know one thing, that is, Navilette, who did not regain the complete power of the ancient dragon, is at most the same as the top three seats of the Fatui, but he possesses power comparable to the level of a demon god. But if you let Navilette compete with General Thunder - wouldn't the demon god be defeated in seconds in front of General Thunder?

Huh? I'm asking you, isn't it?

The Liyue Rock God, the Inazuma Thunder God, the Winter Ice God, the Mondstadt Wind God, and the Nata Fire God. It's simply ridiculous to compare ordinary so-called demon gods with these five.

The ancient dragon power looks very high-end, and in fact it is very high-end, but this does not mean that creatures like dragons are superior to demons, nor does it mean that creatures like dragons are stronger than demons who stand at the top.

The thrones of the Seven Earthly Rulers do indeed incorporate the authority that originally belonged to the Dragon King - but this does not mean that the power of the Seven Earthly Rulers comes entirely from the Dragon King.

To put it simply, the power of the ancient dragon is the same as the heart of God to the seven rulers of the mortal world. It is just an identity certificate.

The only thing that makes it more special than the Heart of God is that the power of the ancient dragon is bound to the throne of the Seven Gods, and the throne of the Seven Gods is bound to the lives of the Seven Gods, so it cannot be abandoned voluntarily.

However, if it weren't for the rules set by heaven, none of the Seven Gods would want to integrate this thing into their throne.

The throne of the Seven Gods will be inherited from generation to generation. Ying was not one of the Seven Rulers before, and she did not initially integrate any ancient dragon power. However, her martial arts skills are completely superior to her sister Zhen, who is one of the Seven Rulers of the Mortal World and has integrated the ancient dragon power into the throne. What is the reason?

——The reason is that there is no need for something like the Ancient Dragon's Power, because all demon gods have their own powers.

The throne that integrates the power of the ancient dragon is a symbol of the authority of the seven rulers of the mortal world, but that’s all. It has nothing to do with the strength of the seven gods.

Those who should be weak, like Nashida, are equally weak whether she has the Grass God's throne or not. Those who should be strong, like Morax, are equally strong whether he has the Rock God's throne or not.

Dragons are strong and weak, dragon kings are strong and weak, and demons are strong and weak.

Unfortunately, among the demon gods still existing in the world today, basically, except for the grass goddess Nashida, there are no other gods that can be considered weak.

As for the Grass Goddess Nashida - her real terrifying aspect is not her strength.

It also does not depend on the ancient dragon's power.

It is precisely because of the power she wields as the incarnation of the World Tree.

Anyone who thinks she is easy to bully because she is weak is a fool.

Anyway, Ye had planned it hundreds of years ago. When Nashida was about to escape, he would go and do her a favor and repair the relationship with Xumi.

...and by the way, rob the House of the Lords one last time before Nashida escapes.

Well, as long as the favor is done well, Nashida shouldn't mind, right?
