Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

"There is something wrong here. There is no one to be found in the entire Melo Petersburg, but there is no news from the outside world. It has not even affected any normal functions of the city."

There was no wind in Mello Petersburg, but Ying still felt a bone-chilling chill on her back.

If she hadn't come here in person, she would never have imagined that Mellow Petersburg was actually empty.

You have to know that this place supplies clockwork machinery to the entire Fontaine. For Fontaine, which is highly dependent on mechanization, this place is simply the core in another sense.

Not to mention the recent overabundance of patrol machines, which was not normal production capacity at all. Because he had personally participated in it, Ying knew that even in the normal operation of Melo Petersburg, only by working continuously and making full use of all production equipment could it achieve that efficiency.

She had already sensed something was wrong when she was in the water, but since she was barely at the limit of what she could do, it was explainable.

In addition, Villette also went to Melo Petersburg, and they might really be facing some abnormal situation there, so their super-efficient operation was also justified, which was why Ying did not intervene forcibly.

I didn't expect that this place has become such an incredible situation. Let alone living people, there is not a single living thing here. All of them are machines running on their own.

If this can be called "normal", then the whole world must be abnormal.

"So...so scary..."

Paimon shuddered. She and you would rather everyone here become hostile to them than encounter a situation where there is no one around.

It’s like everyone suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth. Things that are incomprehensible are even more frightening.

If all of this was done by Zuo Xi, then where did all the people go? There was only one official entrance and exit to Melo Petersburg, and the drainage hole they came from was only destroyed when the young master escaped.

They couldn't say for sure that there were no other exits, but other exits would definitely pass through sea water. Although Zuo Xi had sealed the fetal sea water once before, the water that had leaked out before would not disappear...

If these people had left through other exits, if the concentration of the water in the fetal sea had just reached the threshold, wouldn't everyone have already... Paimeng didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"It is really a pleasure for you two to revisit your old place."

A slightly lazy voice came from behind them, and the two people who were already in an extremely tense state were suddenly startled and reacted subconsciously.

"help!"

"Winter is coming!"

Paimon shouted for help the first time, Ying pulled Paimon into his arms the first time, and then burst out with extremely strong ice elemental force that covered the surrounding area.

The person behind him also reacted quickly, keeping a distance as the elemental power exploded to avoid being corroded by the extreme cold.

"Calm down, it's me."

After the two sides had created a certain distance between themselves, Ying finally had time to turn around and examine the other party.

The figure that slowly walked out of the icy fog was a little demanding. She frowned and stared at it for a while, until the other person's figure gradually became clear, and then they could see who the other person was.

"It's you, Leosley!"

Paimon looked at the other person in surprise. The person who came was the manager of Melo Petersburg, Duke Leosli.

"What the hell is going on here, Leosley! Why is everyone gone, where is Villette, why is there no one here, and why is Melo Petersburg running at full capacity?"

Ying asked quite a lot of questions in one breath. This time, the uneasiness in her heart was quite strong, different from any previous time.

No matter what kind of battle she faced before, no matter how powerful the enemy was, she would never be afraid.

But this time, the "enemy" cannot be described as "powerful or not", this is another strange situation! The strange current situation beyond common sense and the clues pointing to a cruel ending, both possibilities make her feel uneasy.

"That's too many questions to ask at once. If you don't mind, come to my office and talk."

Leosli calmly waited for Ying to finish asking all her questions, and then responded slowly.

"That's true. Since Leosley is so calm, it means everyone must be fine, right?"

Paimon wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and calmed down a little. Leosli didn't look like he had suffered any major blow, which meant that everyone was not collectively dissolved.

As long as we can avoid this worst-case scenario, everything else can be discussed.

"…I'm sorry, I lost my temper."

After hearing what Paimeng said, Ying realized that she had lost her composure. She suddenly relaxed and found that she was already covered in cold sweat.

That's right, looking at Leosley, it should be considered that he has handled everything properly, right? Otherwise, it is impossible for such a responsible person like him to be so calm after the tragedy... No, wait.

Ying suddenly stopped and her pupils contracted.

calm?

She remembered Navia saying...the abnormal behavior of the residents of Fontaine was that they were very calm.

"Are you...are you really Leosley?"
