Chapter 160 [Fontaine] Change of Owner
In the conversation with the vendor, Navilet gradually learned the names of the vendor’s family of three, and heard many stories about Fontaine in another world from him.
The vendor’s name was Chris Moran, and it was obvious that he was Verning’s most loyal believer.
In the current situation of Fontaine’s poverty,
Chris’s son Moran’s hatred of the water god was a normal phenomenon.
However, Chris still maintained his admiration and worship for Verning,
Knowing all about Verning’s deeds after becoming the water god, he firmly believed that everything he did was meaningful.
Verning was once annoyed by Navilet and Clorinde’s doubts about his position as the Supreme Judge.
Through Chris’s narration, Navilet began to understand that
Verning’s anger was justified.
In the position of the Supreme Judge, Verning’s achievements far exceeded his expectations.
He not only completed basic duties such as judging cases, promoting economic development, and conducting diplomacy with other countries, but also did more.
As one of the seven gods, he is the supreme god of Fontaine.
For the people of Fontaine, Vernin personally examined cases countless times and went deep into the people to understand the people’s sentiments.
In order to promote industrial development, he even served as the president of the Fontaine Academy of Sciences.
Navilet once believed that as the highest judge, he only needed to perform his duties conscientiously.
However, Vernin truly integrated himself into the lives of the people of Fontaine and
devoted great energy to the prosperity of Fontaine.
Because of this, even though many people resented Vernin,
but at the same time, some people still followed him.
These are stories that Vernin never told in detail to people in another world.
He downplayed all his achievements.
However, Verning also did not tell Navilet and the others,
The real situation of Fontaine in another world,
such as the rebellion of Melo Petersburg and those disturbing human experiments.
Navilet was still full of doubts,
He could feel that Verning had concealed many things from them, especially about the current situation of Fontaine.
Is it because the rebellion of Melo Petersburg is related to a prophecy that Verning is unwilling to talk about it?
Or, he is too ashamed to speak up and is unwilling to reveal Fontaine’s current predicament to others?
Until now, Navilet still cannot fully understand Verning’s thoughts.
Since coming to Fontaine in another world, his understanding of this world has become clearer,
But he still cannot see through Verning.
Why did the once most respected god fall to the point where he is now?
Just as Navilet was lost in thought, Chris’s family had already prepared food.
At Chris’s enthusiastic invitation, Navrette and the othersAfter dinner, he had planned to leave after dinner, but Chris insisted on staying.
“Mr.
Villette, based on past experience, this war may not end soon.
” Chris said worriedly, “A few days ago, when the God-killing Army first entered the city, the battle was the most intense.
It is too dangerous to go out now.
” In Fontaine, there are not many people willing to listen to the story of the water god.
It is rare to meet someone like Villette who can talk to him, so Chris naturally does not want him to leave.
Villette also feels that since coming to this world, it seems that some kind of power is suppressing him, and his power has been greatly weakened.
It is not wise to leave rashly now.
Moreover, at the moment when Fontaine City is caught in war, it is not easy to find out the story of Fontaine in another world.
It is better to stay here and listen to Chris’s story.
After some thought, Navillatte agreed to Chris’s request and decided to stay here temporarily.
The days passed peacefully for a few days.
Except for the occasional explosion in the distance and the fact that the people of Fontaine could not leave their homes at will,
This war did not seem to have much impact on the lives of civilians.
As the most intense days of the war gradually passed, although the citizens of Fontaine could not go out on the streets freely, they began to visit their neighbors cautiously.
Everyone was bored to death staying at home every day.
This kind of visit between neighbors also brought all kinds of gossip and rumors.
One day, a neighbor came to Chris’s house and shared with Chris what he had learned.
The neighbor said to Chris in a low voice in a mysterious way:
That day, at Chris’s house, a neighbor came to visit with the latest “information”.
He said to Chris in a low voice in a mysterious way:
“I tell you, this time our water god may really be in trouble.”
“I heard that the God Killing Army has surrounded the Mo Mang Palace.” (To read the exciting novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“In the past, the God Killing Army always On the way, they were driven back to Melo Petersburg by the soldiers of the Kingdom of Winter.
“But this time, they actually advanced to such a close place to the Mo Mang Palace.”
“This time, the Kingdom of Winter did not intervene, and only the soldiers of Fontaine were there to hold on.”
“So, the God Killing Army was able to surround the Mo Mang Palace so easily.”
“Maybe in a few days, the Mo Mang Palace will announce its surrender.”
As he spoke, a complex feeling of gloating appeared on the face of the neighbor.
“This is the retribution for the Water God losing the hearts of the people.
How many of the soldiers of Fontaine are really willing to fight the God Killing Army?”
“Which Fontaine person does not secretly hope that the Water God will step down soon?”
After hearing this, Chris could not hide his worry on his face.
“After all, the Water God is the symbol of our Fontaine. Although theseHis policies in 1989 were indeed controversial. ”
“But during his hundreds of years of rule, he also made indelible contributions to Fontaine.”
“How can we watch him go to ruin?” []
“Besides, Lord Fernin’s power is well known. If he is willing to come forward, the situation will definitely be reversed immediately.”
Little Moran couldn’t help but interrupt, his eyes flashing with a kind of almost relieved pleasure.
“Father, don’t talk about how great the Water God is. I’m almost tired of hearing it.”
“If the Water God is really that powerful, why did he never take action himself when the God Killing Army attacked several times before, and always relied on the power of the Fatui executive to repel the enemy?”
“People outside are saying that the Water God has lost his power.”
“It is precisely because of this that he will bow to the Winter Solstice and no longer appear in public. ”
The neighbor also nodded in agreement:
“That’s right, now the Fontaine people are worse than dogs in front of the Winter People.”
“He has made us suffer for so long. If he is really overthrown this time, it will be a great relief!”
That Villette: “”
Just recently, he asked Verning whether there would be any problems with Fontaine without the God of Water.
At that time, Verning confidently assured that everything was under his control.
However, the current situation made him doubt whether Verning’s confidence was too optimistic.
He thought to himself: “When Verning returns,
Will he find that his power has been taken away, and that Fontaine has changed hands and fallen into the hands of Leosli?” .
