Chapter 822

"It is said that a very long time ago, there was such a special sea on the Teyvat continent."

"Its water quality was different from today's ocean, somewhat similar to blood."

"Almost all life on the Teyvat continent was born from this sea area."

"Therefore, this sea is also known as the water of the Primordial Sea."

"And the heart that controlled this seawater was the first Hydro Dragon Sovereign!"

"After the death of the first Hydro Dragon Sovereign, the water of the Primordial Sea began to spiral out of control."

"At this time, one of the Four Shades of the Heavenly Principles, the Shade of Life, arrived!"

"After discovering the problem, she recreated a new heart."

"This heart was none other than — the first Hydro Archon, Egeria!"

"Of course, at that time, she was not the Hydro Archon."

"She wasn't even an Archon."

"The only purpose for which she was created was to fill the vacancy left by the Hydro Dragon Sovereign and to stabilize the water of the Primordial Sea."

"This period was in the initial generation."

"And with a later accidental situation, everything changed!"

"Egeria shed her first tear because of an inadvertent pity for the dragon race."

"Thus, the Oceanids were born!"

"From then on, the wheel of fate began to turn."

"The newborn Oceanids were given the mission by Egeria to understand all living things."

"To understand all kinds of life, to love all life."

"Plus, they originated from the water of the Primordial Sea and possessed the ability to transform into living things."

"Under such circumstances, the Oceanids gradually developed envy for life."

"Among them, the envy for humans was the greatest!"

"The beauty and romance of humans fascinated them endlessly."

"From then on, becoming human became the greatest wish in the hearts of the Oceanids!"

"Egeria naturally noticed the thoughts of her vassals."

"To her, these Oceanids were like her children."

"When children have needs, a loving mother will naturally think of ways to fulfill them."

"Just like a mother among humans toward her children."

"So she took action!"

"However, although Egeria was the heart of the Primordial Sea, she did not possess the power to create humans."

"In the end, she chose to steal the power of the Primordial Sea water."

"After letting the Oceanids transform into human form, she used their blood vessels to wrap the water of the Primordial Sea inside their bodies."

"In this way, she finally turned the Oceanids into humans."

"However, such a method was incomplete!"

"Because these people relied on the power of the Primordial Sea water to maintain their physical forms."

"Once they came into contact with the water of the Primordial Sea again, the power within their bodies would break free from its shackles and return to the Primordial Sea."

"Specifically manifested as, the human form dissolves and turns back into an Oceanid."

"This is exactly the original sin that Egeria and the people of Fontaine have been carrying all along!"

"The Heavenly Principles were furious upon learning of this!"

"They directly imprisoned Egeria and imposed a punishment!"

"Thus, the prophecy that is widely circulated in Fontaine gradually came into being!"

"The people of Fontaine are born with sin."

"One day, the sea level of Fontaine will rise and submerge the people who carry the sin."

"At that time, everyone will dissolve in the sea."

"Only the Hydro Archon will remain on the throne, weeping."

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

……

Previously, when reviewing Navia and Neuvillette, Following Luo Chen only briefly mentioned the water of the Primordial Sea.

But here, he narrated it in exceptional detail.

He told the origin of the people of Fontaine from beginning to end.

After watching, the people of Teyvat before the light screen suddenly realized the truth.

So the truth of the prophecy was like this!

After knowing this, people from other countries were only surprised and emotional.

As for the people of Fontaine, their expressions became complex.

At first, they thought the prophecy was fake, a joke.

Later, after learning from the light screen that it was true, they thought others were cursing them.

But now...

They discovered it wasn't like that!

It was purely that they had taken something they shouldn't have.

They were thieves!

Now, it was time to return it.

Who could they blame for this?

They couldn't blame anyone!

The other party had even given them thousands of years of experience time!

It was generous enough!

To put it bluntly, these were purely the self-inflicted actions of their ancestors!

They had thoughts they shouldn't have had!

But then again.

If those ancestral Oceanids hadn't turned into humans, they wouldn't exist.

Thinking of this, the people of Fontaine fell silent one by one.

……

Villa.

Following Luo Chen continued to speak.

"Given that this matter has had too great an impact on Egeria, Focalors, Furina, and Fontaine,"

"I will temporarily provide a small review here!"

"First, creating humans is the power of the Heavenly Principles and the Shade of Life!"

"Egeria, as a subordinate, stole the power of the Primordial Sea water for personal gain without permission from above,"

"This is a great offense and transgression!"

"This point is beyond doubt!"

"To draw an analogy to a secular dynasty, it would be like a minister privately stealing the emperor's treasures to raise an army."

"Even if this minister had no intention of rebelling."

"But this is already a taboo!"

"And the kind of extremely serious taboo at that!"

……

Hearing this, many people in high positions before the light screen nodded secretly.

It was indeed so!

One of the things people like them feared most was subordinates doing things privately.

Especially stealing their things for personal gain!

This was something they absolutely could not tolerate!

From this perspective, Egeria, the first Hydro Archon, did indeed act somewhat improperly.
