Zero Zone: Start as Morax

In the past few days in the outer ring, Funina has become familiar with everyone in the Rabbit House, especially Nekomata, who Funina is very interested in.

On the way back to the city.

Funina introduced her hometown to Nicole, Ambi, Nekomata and others.

There are tall buildings, a huge water god palace, a magnificent Fontaine Opera House, and a luxurious Debo Hotel...

Speaking of the prosperity of Fontaine, Funina's face is full of confidence.

She has been to Liyue once before.

Although Liyue is also prosperous, it is completely different from Fontaine. In comparison, Funina still prefers the tall buildings and towering city walls of Fontaine.

After listening to Funina's story.

Ambi thought: "High-rise? Palace? Opera house? Grand hotel? The palaces of the old times have long been swallowed by the void. Now there are only high-rise buildings in Fontaine. There is no opera house near the Janus District, but there are two cinemas..."

Maomata followed up: "There are several big hotels in Guangying Square, but my favorite is still the ordinary hotel called Manhan Quanyu. The mackerel there is the most delicious. When I go back, I must invite you to taste it."

Along the way.

Funina didn't understand what Ambi, Maomata, and Nicole were saying...

Ambi, Maomata, and Nicole didn't understand what Funina was saying...

But.

It was precisely because of this that the curiosity of both parties was successfully aroused.

Billy smiled and said, "The Fontaine you mentioned should be very far away from New Eli. I really want to go and see it when I have time."

Funina nodded: "It's quite far. If you come here in the normal way, you have to take a boat first, then take another boat, then walk through a mountain range, and then walk through the land of Liyue..."

However, Funina was teleported here by the Seven-Day Statue this time, so it was very simple. She arrived at the outer ring in the blink of an eye.

After listening to Funina's story.

Billy sighed: "I guess there will be a lot of dangers along the way."

Funina nodded first, then shook her head: "There was no danger this time, but if you come here in the normal way, you may encounter hillocks, slimes, and robbers who block the road..."

Hillocks?

Slime?

What is that? Why does it sound a bit like something in an old movie?

Billy couldn't understand it at all. He couldn't help but wonder if the hillocks and slimes that Funina mentioned were skeletons?

Billy turned to look at Amby: "You watch a lot of movies. Have you heard of Hillocks and Slimes?"

Amby pondered for a moment and said: "I have heard of Slimes, but I have never heard of Hillocks."

Then.

Amby began to popularize science: "Slime is a creature that looks harmless to humans and animals, but is actually very dangerous. If you encounter it, it is best to stay away from it as soon as possible."

Funina agreed deeply: "Yes, if you provoke it, it will chase you and attack you, which is difficult to deal with."

Hearing this.

Billy covered his face helplessly.

He remembered that he had seen slimes in a movie before, but wasn't that a fictional creature in the movie?

How could it exist in reality?

Before Billy figured out the truth.

Suddenly

Nekomata looked out the window and said happily: "Nicole, Ambi, we are almost in the city."

Nicole frowned slightly: "Be quiet, don't make noise, I'm settling accounts."

Ambi pointed out the window: "That's New Eridu, we'll be in the city in a while."

Hearing this.

Funina turned her head hurriedly and looked at the New Eridu area pointed by Ambi.

She wanted to see what kind of city it was, which was described as magical by Billy, Nekomata and others.

Even if it was prosperous.

It couldn't be more prosperous than Fontaine.

But the next moment.

When Funina turned her head and saw New Eridu through the window, she was stunned.

What is this?

A whole area, Funina widened her eyes and looked at the New Eridu area, but she couldn't see the end at a glance.

The tall buildings are almost as tall as the outer ring of mountains...

The huge city is at least several times larger than Fontaine City...

Funina suspected that she was dazzled. She rubbed her eyes and saw more clearly. The shock in her heart became more and more intense.

"Is this what you call the New Ely Metropolitan Area?"

"Yes, it's okay, right? What you see is only the outskirts of the city. The buildings are very low, the roads are not wide enough, and it is very crowded. The buildings in the city center are the tallest..."

"So high, is it a hundred meters?"

"A hundred meters? You look down on those chaebols too much. For example, the Vision Company that was just defeated some time ago, their headquarters has a hundred floors and is more than three hundred meters high...""Impossible, how can such a tall building be built..."

Funina was completely dumbfounded.

As the distance to the city got closer and closer, the city became clearer and clearer, and she found that the buildings here were different from the architectural style of Fontaine.

As the car drove into the city.

Funina looked at the wide streets, tall buildings, and all kinds of new Elido citizens in surprise...

It was so different from what she imagined.

Funina couldn't help but wonder, is this really still Liyue?

Why is it so different from Liyue Port?

When passing a street.

Nicole parked the car on the side of the road, and then walked into a strange store with Ambi. When they appeared again, they had several more cups of milk tea in their hands.

"Compared to coffee, I still prefer milk tea, Miss Funina, Miss Clorinde, you should try it too..."

"Uh! Thank you..."

Funina took the milk tea with a blank look on her face.

After taking a bite, I found that the taste was very good. If a store like this was opened in Fontaine City, it would definitely be very popular.

"Let's go back to the Cunning Rabbit House first."

Everyone was preparing to return to the Cunning Rabbit House.

But before they drove out of the block, a series of alarms suddenly sounded on the street behind, and then a patrol car stopped the truck driven by Clorinde.

Funina was shocked: "What's going on? There won't be robbers in the city, right?"

Nicole was stunned when she heard it: "Ah? Robbers? They are not robbers, they are people from the Public Security Bureau. I'll go and see what's going on. They won't stop the vehicle for no reason."

When Nicole got out of the car and took a look.

Then she suddenly realized.

It turned out that the truck that Clorinde drove back originally belonged to the Outer Ring Gang, and it had no license plate or insurance.

Even... even Clorinde herself did not have a driver's license.

In this case.

It would be strange if the people from the Public Security Bureau did not stop it.

After the police asked about the situation, they decided to seize the truck and formally arrest Clorinde for dangerous driving.

Clorinde frowned: "Arrest? What if I refuse?"
