“Is this normal?”

This was the first time that Navia and Funina had encountered such a situation, so they immediately asked the two people among them who knew Zuo Xi best.

"It's not very normal..."

Paimon frowned and pinched his chin, his face full of suspicion.

"Generally speaking, Zuo Xi should suddenly appear and make an announcement in a very exaggerated way... Uh, so is this an idol burden?"

"I'm not asking whether this aspect is normal or not..."

Paimon's words made Navia feel a little amused and helpless. His ability of comprehension was really unique.

"I mean, is the content of the words that just appeared in my mind normal? Is it likely that Zuo Xi would do such a thing?"

Even though the Traveler and Paimon had just talked to them about Zuo Xi's glorious deeds in several other countries, this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

In addition, since Zuo Xi didn't say it herself, the news might not be reliable. She wanted the two of them to verify the authenticity. Was this someone's prank, or was it really an ultimatum from Zuo Xi?

"It's impossible..."

Ying shook her head, and both Finina and Navia breathed a sigh of relief. That's right, this kind of thing can't be true no matter how you look at it...

"It can't be fake. Basically, we don't need to consider this situation?"

The second half of Ying's words choked Navia and Funina, who had not yet fully breathed a sigh of relief. Her heavy breathing caught the two of them off guard.

The two looked at Ying and Paimon in amazement. They didn't see any joking look on their faces. Instead, they all looked as if it was a matter of course.

"Why are you so surprised? Didn't I tell you before that Zuo Xi is capable of doing this kind of thing... Ah, but don't worry too much. Since he said so, it means we have hope."

With experiences in Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma, Ying can be said to be experienced in such matters.

Since Zuo Xi asked her to take on the challenge, it meant that as long as she was willing to work hard, she would be able to avoid a bad ending... Although the process might be desperate and thrilling, the ending was often pretty good.

"Yes, yes. That guy won't give us any problems that we can't solve... But in other words, we have to take every word he says seriously."

Paimon added.

"What does that mean? Does that mean that if we don't do what he wants, something terrible will happen?"

Navia's face looked grim. How crazy must a person be to do such a thing?

"You don't know Zuo Xi well enough. He must have done this because he had to. In other words, whether he was in charge or not, it is now basically certain that Fontaine is in some kind of crisis.

According to Zuo Xi, resolving this crisis is what we need to do. And in this process, some of our actions or the result of resolving the crisis must be meaningful to other things.”

There are precedents for this. In Mond, Zuo Xi pulled her into the center of events, and finally led out the Abyss, thwarting the Abyss's conspiracy.

Zuo Xi was not so strong at that time, and subsequent events also proved that the arrangement at that time was indeed necessary.

In Liyue, all the storms are a test for the entire Liyue. As an examiner, Zuo Xi designed a series of dangers that are meaningful in themselves. Pulling her into the center of the event is to help her become famous while also allowing Liyue to pass the test better.

It is easier to understand when it comes to Inazuma. The various actions against the Kamisato family, the ruling behavior on Kaiin Island, the declaration of war on General Raiden, pushing one person after another to duel in front of the emperor... these things seem to be unrelated, but they can play a key role in the end.

In these three experiences, they participated in many key steps. Looking back, if they did not do a certain step well, or had a slight mistake, the final outcome might not be satisfactory.

Therefore, Ying had reason to suspect that she would have to risk her life again this time.

"So it's already been confirmed what's going to happen, right? Then let's hurry up and get going without further delay!"

Navia was very proactive and decided to leave quickly after she was sure that it was unavoidable.

"Eh? Are you leaving now? Where are you going? Don't you want to discuss it first?"

Apparently, Funina didn't catch up. What was going on? Wasn't she completely clueless?!

"I don't know, but the abnormalities of the people mentioned earlier, the long absence of Lord Villette, the increase in the number of autonomous robot patrols... these all need to be investigated. Anyway, let's split up first!"
