Liyue. Minlin. Under the Fulong Tree
"That's probably what happened."
Zhongli told Fuling that the seal had been loosened and damaged, and that the Kindness of the Ruotu Dragon King had appeared and asked him to kill him and set him free.
Of course, Zhongli concealed the fact that the reason why Ruotu woke up was because of the abnormality of the Fengdan Taihai Sea.
After all, if you really want to say that, it means that he has long known that the Ruotu Dragon King and the Taihai Sea water can affect each other, so it's embarrassing.
Of course, it's just not that embarrassing. Fuling guessed what Zhongli was thinking after hearing it.
"This guy must have known that the Ruotu Dragon King and the Taihai Sea water can affect each other."
"He must have been waiting for me to come to him on his own initiative. The reason why he didn't take the initiative to mention this to me is that he must be afraid that I would blackmail him and take the opportunity to ask for more benefits. After all, fighting the Dragon King is not an easy thing."
Fuling now finally knows why Zhongli gave her the Heart of God so easily. It seems that this old guy has been waiting for her here!
"Tsk... this old fox!"
There are always two hidden dangers in Liyue, one is the whirlpool demon god Osel, and the other is the Rhodo Dragon King.
Once these two powerful beings break the seal, they will bring great disasters to Liyue.
Therefore, if Zhongli wants to abdicate, it is best to find a way to eliminate these two hidden dangers first.
Fuling used the power station and the solution to Osel's hidden danger as bargaining chips, but never mentioned the Rhodo Dragon King.
Because she knew the friendship between Zhongli and the Rhodo Dragon King very well, according to her understanding, Zhongli would not take the initiative to hurt the Rhodo Dragon King.
Given the friendship between the Rhodo Dragon King and Zhongli, it is neither realistic nor polite for Fuling to use the Rhodo Dragon King as a bargaining chip.
It is also because of this that Fuling has never thought about the Rhodo Dragon King.
Unexpectedly, it seems that her arrival has triggered changes in the world line. The abnormal rapid flow of the fetal sea water in Fontaine has affected the stratum, causing the Rhodo Dragon King to wake up early.
What's more, it was unexpected that the Rhodo Dragon King would show up and ask Zhongli to kill him.
But it's reasonable to think about it. In the second chapter of the Zhongli Legend Quest in the game, although the Traveler, Zhongli and the kind-hearted Rhodo Dragon King sealed the Rhodo Dragon King again.
At first glance, the incident of the Rhodo Dragon King has been resolved, but it is not the case.
They just reinforced the seal again and sealed the Rhodo Dragon King again.
The conflict between the Rhodo Dragon King, Morax and Liyue is still there, but it is temporarily suppressed by the seal.
But how long can this seal last?
A hundred years? A thousand years? One day, the Rhodo Dragon King will break the seal and come out, and then Liyue will still have to face this behemoth.
It is indeed like what the Rhodo Dragon King said, sealing it again is just to leave the conflict to future generations, which will not only leave disasters, but also make him continue to suffer.
It is better to kill Zhongli while he is still there.
In this way, it will benefit future generations and give it relief.
From the perspective of a ruler, it is a good thing to remove a great calamity for Liyue.
From the perspective of a close friend, this is to agree to the request of the Dragon King Ruota and give him relief.
Zhongli could not refuse it for both public and private reasons.
As a ruler, Fuling understood Zhongli's feelings very well.
She looked at Zhongli and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"
As soon as he said this, Zhongli's face was full of bitterness.
He sighed, "For the sake of the people and for my old friends, I can only do this."
He looked at Fuling, "But the Dragon King Ruota is powerful. I couldn't defeat him in my heyday, not to mention that I have to take care of Liyue at the same time."
"So, Ms. Fu Nina, it is related to the future of the two countries of Fontaine and Liyue. I hope to get your help."
"......"
Fuling fell into silence, posing as if thinking.
The reason why she didn't speak was not because she was really thinking, but because she was expressing her dissatisfaction in this way.
Zhongli obviously knew about the influence of Ruotu Dragon King and Taihai Water, but he concealed it and chose to wait for her to come to him and ask.
This is obviously because he didn't want to pay too much.
From a personal point of view, Fuling has a good impression of both Zhongli and Ruotu Dragon King. Just for this, she can help without any benefits.
But at the diplomatic table, the ruler also represents the interests of the country and the people.
She must put aside her personal feelings and seek benefits for Fengdan and the people.
Moreover, due to her good impression of Zhongli and Liyue, every transaction she proposed after coming to Liyue was as fair as possible.
This feeling is like you treat others sincerely, but you are calculated by others, which makes Fuling a little dissatisfied.
Faced with Fuling's silence, Zhongli was a little helpless. Of course, he knew that Fuling was expressing her dissatisfaction with him.But the reason why he did so was that he didn't know Fuling's character at the time.
Second, he didn't have much to offer as a bargaining chip except the Heart of God.
Seeing Fuling's attitude at this time, Zhongli could only sigh and apologize.
"I'm sorry about this, but apart from the Heart of God, it's hard for Liyue to offer any more bargaining chips."
He thought about it and finally said, "How about this, after this, apart from the Heart of God, I can help Fontaine twice without violating the principle."
"At the same time, all the tariffs on goods entering Liyue from Fontaine will be reduced by 8%, how about it?"
Morax is called the God of War. It's not difficult to imagine how powerful he is. He can help Fontaine twice.
And all the goods of Fontaine will have their tariffs reduced by 8% in Liyue?
Some people may not know what tariffs are.
For example, a Fontaine product worth 100 Mora will be charged a 15% tariff after entering Liyue, so the merchant must sell this product for 115 Mora to barely break even.
Adding labor, transportation, rent, stall fees, profit and other conditions, things that originally sold for 100 Mora in Fontaine will be sold for at least 200 Mora or even higher in Liyue.
But such a premium also makes Fontaine's products extremely cost-effective, and fewer people buy them.
Tariffs are not only a tax method for the government, but also to protect various industries in the country.
After all, if Fontaine's products are easy to use and cheap, who would buy Liyue's products? Just like if there were no tariffs on Mercedes-Benz and BMW, how many people would choose to buy domestic cars at the same price?
If no one buys Liyue's products, many manufacturers in Liyue will go bankrupt.
As for Liyue, once the tariffs are reduced, it means that various shops in Fontaine can enter the Liyue market at a lower price.
With more demand, Fontaine's economy and employment opportunities will be significantly improved.
Since Zhongli has apologized, the effort and the reward are equal, so Fuling naturally has nothing to say.
She nodded and agreed to join forces with Zhongli to kill the Ruotu Dragon King.
After the matter was finalized, the two left separately.
The Ruotu Dragon King is the rock elemental dragon king. Fighting with it is no small matter.
The battle between three god-level strongmen can easily cause the earth to break, rivers to change course, and disasters are inevitable.
Therefore, before the battle, preparations such as evacuation of personnel must be made to minimize the loss of life and property of the people.
After the matter was finalized, Zhongli and Fuling went back to arrange related matters.
But at the same time, Xumi.
A tall woman with revealing clothes appeared at the entrance to the desert from the Kawanyi Rainforest.
She is the eighth seat of the Fatui executive officer - [Ms.]!
......
PS: I am really tired, and there are a lot of things to do these two days. I will take a day off tomorrow.
I will continue to update the day after tomorrow.
