Explorer of Teyvat

Fleet of Fools, Main Ship, Commander's Office.

Looking at the handsome man in front of her, Arecino could only resist his request for help.

But the reality did not allow her to refute.

"It's our honor to help you. Please speak up. If we can do it, we won't shirk it."

Arecino tried his best to control his expression, tone, and emotions.

I have to say that compared to other executives Wang Daoyi has met, Arecino really crushes those people in terms of emotional intelligence.

[Master] Dadalia is a martial artist. Although he doesn't have any major flaws, he is mostly straightforward in dealing with people and things. Although he cannot be said to be a bad person, he is not a good person either.

[Ms.] Rosalin has died, but her arrogant attitude still left a bad impression on Wang Daoyi.

[Rich Man] Pantalone has been hiding from Wang Daoyi. His abnormal values ​​are completely incompatible with Wang Daoyi.

[Doctor] Dotore is even more insidious and cunning, and is the most inhuman executive.

And [Skire Soldier], who has been forgotten now, was even more deformed and in a mess at the beginning.

Only [Captain] Capitano and [Servant] Arecino can be considered normal people.

But in terms of emotional intelligence in dealing with people, [Servant] Arecino completely crushes these people.

Even though she was very dissatisfied and resistant to Wang Daoyi in her heart, she didn't show it at all on her face.

Even if outsiders saw it, they might think that Arecino respected the Lord of Red Sand.

"It's very simple. Do you know Fontaine Academy of Sciences?"

Wang Daoyi put down the tea cup and looked at Arlecino.

"Of course, I am from Fontaine, so I naturally know about the Fontaine Academy of Sciences."

Fontaine has several characteristic buildings.

The largest is naturally the Opéra Opécle. As the largest theater in Fontaine, it also serves as the Tribunal, which has symbolic significance in Fontaine.

Next is the Momang Palace. As the administrative unit of Fontaine, the palace of the Water God and the residence of Navilette are both here.

Then there is Merlot Petersburg. As a place of exile for Fontaine prisoners, it has independent autonomy and is a very mysterious place in the eyes of outsiders.

But if there is anything else that Fontaine is famous for, Fontaine Academy of Sciences deserves it.

Whether it is the endless scientific and technological achievements of the Academy of Sciences,

Or was it the earth-shattering explosion at the Academy of Sciences later?

They all left a great impression on the hearts of the people of Fontaine.

And Arecino has been paying attention to everything about Fontaine, so naturally he will know about it.

"Fontaine Academy of Sciences has disappeared, Your Majesty."

"It's just that the building was bombed. The Academy of Sciences is more than just a building. It really represents the spirit of Fontaine scientists."

Wang Daoyi said softly.

In fact, the explosion at the Academy of Fontainebleau not only caused structural damage;

According to his understanding, a large number of researchers and technological elites disappeared in the big explosion.

Since the accident at the Academy of Sciences, Fontaine's technology has not made any major progress.

The Academy of Sciences, which originally focused on efficiency, has gradually turned into a place as cumbersome and inefficient as the Polyrhythm Court.

This can be seen from the many Fontaine scientists who left the Academy of Sciences to do research in various countries.

Once you apply for funding, you must produce results.

If the results are not enough, researchers will have to pay compensation.

It sounds normal, but anyone who knows some scientific research will understand that this is a joke.

Who can guarantee that their academic research will produce results?

Only a liar can guarantee that.

Under this management model, Fontaine Academy of Sciences has become increasingly lonely.

However, Arecino understood what Wang Daoyi meant.

"Do you want us to help you recruit a group of people from Fontaine Academy of Sciences?"

"Smart." Wang Daoyi snapped his fingers and smiled, "It's not just a simple recruitment. I need some researchers who are proficient in engineering machinery, but I can't dig up the roots of Fontaine Academy of Sciences."

Digging a corner is a corner, but you can't let the wall collapse.

Otherwise, he would not feel comfortable if Villette got angry.

Oh, Ms. Funina may also have opinions, but for now, her opinions don't seem to be important.

Arecino frowned slightly, wanting to dig someone up, but he couldn't dig up the roots.

The Lord of Red Sand gave her a difficult problem.

To put it bluntly, poaching people is not difficult for fools.

Just research who works at the Academy of Sciences and just dig in.

But we must dig up people instead of digging up roots.

We need to conduct a more detailed investigation to see if the other party will affect the operation of the Academy of Sciences.

If the other party is a key figure, you cannot touch the other party.

We can only dig out those researchers who are not very critical and have good knowledge.

In this way, the manpower and material resources required are not at the same level.

It will take at least several times the time and effort to complete.

"You have posed a problem for me." Arecino frowned slightly.

"Can't do it?"

Wang Daoyi didn't look embarrassed at all.

This is his attitude towards fools: use them if they can be used, and get rid of them if they can't.

He was here to suppress the Fools, so there was no need to worry about the Fools' affairs.

It's their business if they can't do it, Wang Dao needs to put pressure on them.

He doesn't like the Fools, and the Fools also know that the Lord of Red Sand doesn't like them.

At present, both parties can sit together and chat because of the extremely fragile balance.

Feeling the oppressive aura of the Red Sand Lord, Arecino's eyes fluctuated slightly, and finally he forced a smile: "Of course not, you underestimate us too much, you are just searching for some researchers, this pair of fools It’s easy to say.”

She wanted to put her fist in the other person's face, but unfortunately, she couldn't do it at the moment.

Not only could she not do it, she had to endure her anger and agree to the other party's request.

I don’t know if Pantalone will agree to apply for more funds for the reason of helping the leader of Red Sand.

Wang Daoyi stretched out: "That's good, I will stay in Fontaine for a while. By the way, I can still keep my room."

See, to do something, you must first know how to use people.

What originally needed Wang Daoyi to do in person, someone else did it for him.

The anger flashed in Arecino's scarlet pupils, but he still endured it: "I will let Isothe arrange it for you."

Isothe is one of the leaders of Fontaine Fools, a Frost Sword Disciple.

"That's good, oh, by the way, regarding the recruitment of researchers, don't let me hear about any violent incidents."

Wang Daoyi looked at Arecino with a smile on his face.

This is a very normal warning,

Without this warning, how could Bao Qi Fools have recruited the people for him?

Kidnapping is also possible.

Arecino gritted his teeth: "Okay, I understand."

She was really ready to tie up a few.

Fools abound, even a little low-handedness is acceptable.

"That's good, well, I've finished my story, let's talk about yours. Who do you want to test when you come to Fontaine with such a big fanfare?"

Wang Daoyi's eyes were serious, showing a hint of majesty, which made Arecino breathless.

Arecino was unaware of Wang Daoyi's suspicion of Fukalos.

After all, as neighboring countries, Fontaine and Xumi have a lot to cooperate with.

Moreover, the last time the Lord of Red Sand came to Fontaine, he met with the Supreme Inquisitor Navilet, and then secretly met with the Water God Fukalos.

Now when people come to Fengdan to dig people, they don't want to offend the water god, but choose to let fools come forward.

From her perspective, as one of the two gods of Xumi, the Lord of Red Sand should be friendly towards the god of Fontaine.

After a moment of silence, Arecino looked at Wang Daoyi, with a hint of sincerity in his scarlet pupils: "I have no ill intentions towards Fontaine."

Yes, Arlecino harbored no ill will towards Fontaine.

At least that's what she thought.

She was not sure what the Lord of Red Sand meant, so she could only tell the truth.

However, to Wang Daoyi, this sentence was a bit ridiculous.

"No malice? Coming from the mouth of a fool, this sentence is somewhat...ridiculous."

For now, the Fools have shown sufficient malice in Mondstadt, Liyue, Daoji, and Xumi.

Now that Arecino said in front of him that he had no ill intentions towards Fontaine, Wang Daoyi didn't believe it at all.

At the beginning, the young master seemed to have no ill intentions.

But what in the end? He released Osel directly.

There is no malice, sometimes it may just be that the conflict of interest has not developed to that point.

"No matter what you think, I still believe in my attitude. I have no ill intentions towards Fontaine. This time I chose to be responsible for Fontaine's affairs. In addition to the water god's heart, I want to solve Fontaine's prophecy more. "

Arecino's scarlet eyes did not avoid Wang Daoyi's scrutiny. She looked at the god in front of her seriously and openly showed her heart.

The two looked at each other, neither of them looking away.

Arecino knew that his reputation as a fool would not make the god in front of him believe in him.

But there is no way, she must win the trust of the Lord of Red Sand,

For no other reason than to keep this guy from causing trouble.

No matter what perfect plan Arecino has, once the Lord of Red Sand chooses to destroy her plan,

Then Arecino will fail,

This is an absolute crushing of strength.

Seeing the seriousness and sincerity in Arecino's eyes,

Wang Daoyi finally nodded slightly: "Fengdan's prophecy is very interesting. Can you tell me about it?"

The last time I came to Fontaine, I spent most of my time outside playing and didn’t get to know much about the deeper things.

This was not the first time Wang Daoyi heard Fontaine's prophecy, but now he wanted to hear Arecino's version.

Arecino took a deep look at Wang Daoyi and didn't know what he was thinking.

Then he nodded slightly to him: "Since you want to know, then I will tell you."

"I don't know when,

Such a prophecy began to circulate in Fontaine,

All Fontaine people are born with "sin".

No matter how the justice country Fontaine conducts trials, it cannot be resolved.

Until one day, the sea level in Fontaine will begin to rise, and the sinful people will gradually be submerged by the sea...

...In the end, everyone will dissolve in the sea, leaving only the water god himself crying on the throne,

Only then... will the sins of the Fontaine people be washed away. "

After telling the prophecy, a smile appeared on Arecino's face: "You must think this prophecy is absurd."

Wang Dao nodded: "Indeed, whether he is born guilty or dissolved in water, it is like a ridiculous joke."

"I used to think so," Arecino said with a wry smile. "But in recent years, Fontaine's water level has been rising, and Fontaine's land area has been decreasing."

"The prophesied sea water will swallow everything?" Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows. The prophecy and reality were intertwined, which was quite interesting.

"Yes, it's very similar to what the prophecy said."

As he said that, a trace of doubt appeared on Arecino's face: "Although most Fontaine people still don't have any sense of crisis,

But as a god, Fukalos doesn't seem to have taken any action, which is really disappointing.

Therefore, I came back this time not only to capture his divine heart, but also to solve Fontaine's prophecy. "

Arecino made no secret of his intention to win the heart of the Water God.

But it also explains that one of his goals is to solve Fontaine's prophecy.

Wang Daoyi looked strange. According to what the other party said,

Not only does she have no ill will towards Fontaine, but in a sense, Arecino came to save Fontaine.

However, Wang Daoyi always felt a sense of disobedience when a fool and other executives came to save Fengdan.

Probably he noticed the undisguised sense of disobedience in Wang Dao's eyes.

Arecino's tone suddenly softened: "Your Majesty, unlike other executives, I was born in Fontaine, and I retain the most basic attachment to Fontaine. This is my country, and it is now in crisis. I I don’t hide my desire for the Heart of God, but I do come here to save her.”

"Heh, I have reservations about that."

Although everything Arlecino did proved that she was not lying, Wang Daoyi still didn't believe it.

Not believing means not believing.

Don't believe anything you say.

Arecino was helpless: "Whether you want to believe it or not, time will prove everything. Now, I am going to handle official business. If you need anything, please feel free to ask me."

With a slight salute to Wang Dao, Arecino turned and walked outside.

"stop."

Arecino froze, a dangerous light flickering in his eyes.

"This is your office. If you want to leave, I should leave."

Wang Daoyi stood up from the sofa and walked slowly past Arecino.

"The performance was good, but unfortunately, the murderous intention at the end was a bit too obvious."

With a chuckle, Wang Daoyi disappeared in front of Arecino.

From meeting to parting,

Arecino's performance was perfect;

Not only did he suppress his fear and hatred for Wang Daoyi,

When communicating, you should also maintain etiquette and maintain a good manner.

Just looking at this, everything seems normal.

It's a pity that when Wang Dao shouted "Stop", she couldn't control her murderous intention for a moment.

This also proved Wang Daoyi's suspicion that Arecino was definitely not a weak woman.

She is an executive who looks gentle on the outside but is absolutely iron-blooded on the inside.

Watching Wang Daoyi's figure disappear before his eyes,

Arecino's expression finally turned completely cold.

"Lord of Red Sand..."

A cold voice sounded near Arecino's mouth.

She has never hated someone so much,

However, Arecino soon suppressed his inner emotions.

I went back to the sofa and started thinking.

"When I said I wanted to capture the Heart of the Water God, the Lord of Red Sand didn't show any surprise. This... is normal. After all, he must know our desire for the Heart of God.

However, not only was he not surprised, he also didn't look angry. Therefore, the Lord of Red Sand's attitude towards Fukalos was at least not friendly, and at most ordinary.

In addition, the Lord of Red Sand seems to need a large number of researchers, which is an opportunity. "

Arecino's eyes flashed slightly,

Since the Doctor's complete failure in Sumeru,

The power of the Fools in Xumi is basically over.

In addition, the last time she went to Xumi to activate some secrets, it completely eliminated the foundation of the fools in Xumi.

Now the Lord of Red Sand has forcibly handed over the job of recruiting researchers to them.

So, can we add sand into it?

Of course, if you directly send the Fools disguised as researchers to Red Sand, they will definitely be found out.

But what if the researchers from the Fontaine Academy of Sciences were bought first and then given to Chisha?

Is it possible to bypass Chisha's internal audit system?

Arecino didn't know the answer, but she knew it was worth trying.

"Come here." Arecino shouted softly.

Soon, a servant came in from outside the door: "Sir."

"Did you see anyone leave the room just now?" Arecino did not directly mention the name of the Lord of Red Sand.

Feng Yuren was a little strange. This was the commander's office. Who would dare to come in without Arecino's instructions?

Although he was confused in his heart, Feng Yuren still shook his head and answered: "Sir, no one is here."

An unexpected answer.

Arecino nodded: "Well, thank you for your hard work. Please call the adjutants and the others."

Unlike other executive officers, Arecino's lieutenants were all trained by her and are all her 'children'.

Feng Yuren didn't ask anything. This was not what she needed to know: "Okay."

He turned around and left, closing the door behind him.

Soon, several officials with powerful auras appeared in Arecino’s office.

More women than men.

It is also a characteristic of Arecino.

"I have something for you to do." Arecino sat on the sofa and looked at the subordinates in front of him. "After entering Fontaine, you will go into hiding to investigate the current member structure of Fontaine Academy of Sciences and do a good job. Make a detailed report to see who can be bribed and who is very important to the Academy of Sciences."

After a pause, Arecino organized his words and continued: "Gather all the information and give it to me. No unauthorized actions are allowed before I give my approval."

She wanted to see if there was anyone who could be bribed by the Fools.

money, power, strength, knowledge,

There are always people who turn to fools for these things.

Arecino believes that the people at the Academy of Fontainebleau will be no exception.

"By the way, when you act in Fontaine, try to be as low-key as possible. I don't want to suddenly receive news that you are acting domineering and have been conveniently taken care of by the Lord of Red Sand."

Arecino warned again.

In fact, compared to the people under other executive officers, Arecino's people are already reserved.

After all, Hearth House gathers in the name of family.

If you are tainted with the word "family", you will naturally not behave as roughly as other people under the executive officer.

They prefer to use their brains.

"Please rest assured, my lord."

All the officials agreed one after another.

"Oh, by the way, since the Lord of Red Sand and the traveler are separated, let's send a message to Linny."
