CHAPTER 188: THE QUEEN OF ALL WATERS

Chapter 188: The Queen of All Waters, All Realms, All Peoples, and All Laws!

The first to catch the attention of the group members was the Hydro Archon.

Momonga: "Aqua, come out, someone’s trying to steal your position!"

Aqua: "This goddess is the true Goddess of Water!"

Hydro Archon: "Interesting, truly too interesting!"

Furina: "Please allow me to introduce myself, I, Furina de Fontaine, the Hydro Archon of the Seven Archons of Teyvat! The Queen of All Waters, All Realms, All Peoples, and All Laws! The great star of Fontaine!"

Platelet: "That sounds like a really impressive title!"

White Blood Cell: "A big shot."

Rory Takakura: "Indeed, although there are some words I don’t understand, this introduction seems serious."

Furina: "Thank you for your compliments."

Nami: "Aqua, look at the Hydro Archon’s introduction, and then look at yours."

Aqua: "Darn it!!"

Aqua: "I am the omniscient and omnipotent Goddess of Water, how could I be compared to a fake?"

Furina: "I’m not a fake, I am the real Hydro Archon!"

Furina replied almost instantly.

Tendo Kisara: "?"

Silver Wolf: "Oh my, this newcomer Furina’s statement seems a bit eager."

Momonga: "Something’s not right."

Ren: "..."

He had already seen through everything. This is Genshin Impact! Furina. She must have been hit where it hurts; in short, she was flustered. Because she was indeed not the true Hydro Archon, Focalors. To be precise, the Hydro Archon Focalors did exist. To cope with the prophetic crisis inherited from the previous Hydro Archon, Egeria, Focalors separated her divinity and personality.

Focalors, as the divinity, hid in the Oratrice Mecanique D’Analyse Cardinale to accumulate the Indemnitium needed for the Hydro Archon’s trial. Furina de Fontaine, as the personality, was responsible for continuing to deceive the Heavenly Principles in the position of the Hydro Archon. This was Furina’s identity, a Hydro Archon who was born to be a character in a play.

Ren didn’t dislike such a person; on the contrary, he quite liked Furina. Not the Hydro Archon Furina, but he liked Furina herself.

"It’s over!" Furina in the courtroom was already panicking. Hesitating because she didn’t understand what the Chat Group was. She was very afraid that her identity would be exposed now. If that happened, hundreds of years of effort would be for naught.

Just then, Furina saw Ren’s message in the group.

Ren: "Furina, Tingyun, welcome to the Doomsday Chat Group."

Ren: "You might be wondering about the existence of the Doomsday Chat Group. As the administrator of the Chat Group, I will briefly introduce it to you."

Ren: "The Doomsday Chat Group is a platform that connects many worlds with doomsday scenarios. Everyone here is a participant in mutual communication during the doomsday."

Ren: "As for the authenticity here, you can judge it yourself through the Chat Group’s functions and so on."

Tingyun: "Thank you for your introduction, this humble one is extremely grateful, but this humble one does have some questions to ask, may I?"

Saeko Busujima: "A very polite person."

Emilia: "If everyone were so easy to talk to, that would be great."

The courtesy in Tingyun’s words was well-received by the others in the group.

Ren: "Ask away. I’ll answer what I can."

Tingyun: "Thank you for your trouble. This humble one has already browsed many functions of the Doomsday Chat Group, and in the visualized information, I saw a strange content, Future Doomsday (9-star). Can Administrator please explain its meaning to this humble one?"

Ren’s eyes flickered; he might have already known Tingyun’s identity.

Ren: "This represents the doomsday that exists in your world."

Ren: "I believe March 7th, Silver Wolf, and Bronya, the three of them might have something in common with you."

March 7th: "Eh? Does that mean our worlds have the same doomsday?"

March 7th: "But Bronya’s Jarilo-VI’s doomsday is already gone."

Silver Wolf: "Are you an idiot? Ren obviously means that Tingyun is from the same world as us."

Bronya: "Hmm, I think so too. March 7th probably didn’t notice that."

March 7th: "Wow! Why didn’t I think of that?"

Tingyun: "The three of you being from the same world as this humble one means..."

March 7th: "Hi hi, I’m March 7th, a Trailblazer from the Astral Express."

Silver Wolf: "Emmm, honestly, shouldn’t I not casually introduce my identity?"

Exusiai: "Well, after all, we’re all group members."

Silver Wolf: "Alright, Silver Wolf, Stellaron Hunters."

Bronya: "I am Bronya Rand, the Supreme Guardian of Belobog, Jarilo-VI."

Tingyun: "..."

Tingyun: "Bronya, please forgive this humble one’s limited knowledge; I haven’t learned about Jarilo-VI."

Bronya: "No, that’s not Miss Tingyun’s problem. Jarilo-VI experienced the Legion of Ruin and the Stellaron’s cold wave seven hundred years ago and has long since left the starry sky."

Tingyun: "Legion of Ruin... Stellaron crisis, that’s truly regrettable."

As a member of the Sky-Faring Commission of the Xianzhou, Tingyun was aware of the existence of the Legion of Ruin and the Stellaron. She also understood what kind of disaster it was. If everything was real, the planet named Jarilo-VI was probably in grave danger.

Bronya: "Miss Tingyun, there’s no need to feel regret. With the help of the Chat Group, the Astral Express, and Miss Silver Wolf, Jarilo-VI’s Stellaron crisis has been resolved, and the cold wave has receded."

Bronya: "I believe that in the near future, we will return to the embrace of the stars."

Tingyun: "That is truly something to be celebrated and looked forward to."

Tingyun: "The Astral Express, I have heard of it. It carries the Trailblazers who pioneer the starry universe; they are a group of admirable people."

Tingyun: "But there is one more thing that I do not understand."

Tingyun: "Silver Wolf, Miss Silver Wolf, forgive my presumptuousness, but as far as I know, the Stellaron Hunters are dangerous individuals wanted throughout the universe. Why would they help Miss Bronya’s planet?"

Silver Wolf: "...You should ask the Chat Group about that."

Tingyun: "What does that mean?"

Shinobu Kocho: "Oh, it’s like this: if a group member comes into contact with doomsday factors, it will trigger a Doom Companion mission."

Shinobu Kocho: "The chosen individuals who participate and cross worlds to complete the mission receive doomsday points as a reward. Silver Wolf was one of the chosen for the Doom Companion mission in Bronya’s world."

Tushan Honghong: "Doomsday points are very powerful; they can enhance one’s strength."

Tingyun naturally saw the use of doomsday points in the Chat Group’s functions. If everything was true, then the Stellaron Hunters’ actions could indeed be understood. But the premise for all of this was that everything here was real.

Furina: "Otherworld? An interesting concept. If a musical could be staged in an Otherworld, it would surely be astounding."

Feeling that no one was paying attention to whether she was a fake Hydro Archon, Furina spoke with newfound courage.

[Ding! Detecting that group member Mikasa has come into contact with Abnormal Doomsday factors, initiating Doom Companion!]

[Doom Companion]: Trio

[Companion Time]: 1 hour

[Companions]: Ren, Mikasa, Tingyun

[Companion Mission]: Eliminate the trialist Reiner Braun.

Ren: "Look, the stage play you wanted is here."

Furina: "Eh?"

Tingyun: "Is this Doom Companion? It says that once I confirm, I can cross worlds. Can such a thing... really be done?"

Kiana: "Heh heh, this is Doom Companion. You really can cross over. I’ve already tried it; the experience is super cool."

Mumei: "Brother and the others saved our world not long ago."

Nami: "You’ll know if it’s real if you try it."

Tingyun: "Thank you for the information, everyone. I know how to choose now."

Ren: "Then I won’t say anything more. I’m going over."

Ren released his grip on people’s hearts, patted Kanae’s perky figure, indicating that it was time to end. Kanae, understanding his intentions, obediently let go. Ren stroked her beautiful hair. "I’m going to another world. You can rest in my mental space for now."

"Okay." Kanae dematerialized into points of light and disappeared. Ren confirmed the crossing.

Boom! A huge roar echoed through the dilapidated city ruins. Mikasa, Ymir, and Krista frantically used their Omni-Directional Mobility Gear to escape the urban area. A 60-meter-class Colossal Titan suddenly stood up there!

The Titan was 60 meters tall, with thick legs, slender arms, and a small head. Its body was fiery red, uncovered by skin, and continuously emitted super-high-temperature steam.

"Damn it! How could a Colossal Titan suddenly appear?!" Ymir cursed as she maneuvered through the air. The Colossal Titan... that was the guy who made humanity recall the fear of being dominated by Titans. The high temperature of its body was something they couldn’t withstand. They immediately judged that this was a Titan they couldn’t handle; running away was the correct course of action.

They were about to escape the abandoned urban area and enter the forest. Perhaps they would have a chance to hide using the forest as cover. However, things were not as simple as they imagined.

"Krista, watch out!" Ymir turned her head, her pupils shrinking, and urgently shouted.

Because directly in front of Krista, a burst of golden lightning flashed, and a new Titan rose from within the forest. It was a fifteen-meter-class Titan! It had white hair, and its body was covered in a pale yellow, armor-like structure. This Titan was directly in front of Krista.

Krista’s Omni-Directional Mobility Gear had one grappling hook shot out and hooked onto a large tree, while the other was just being reeled back in. It was too late to change direction now. The Titan’s fist smashed directly towards Krista.
