Seeing that the poor people in the gray river actually united to form a large force.

The nobles of Fontaine's lords couldn't sit still.

They quickly targeted the poor in the sewers and launched a second urban improvement, the Gray River Cleanup Campaign.

In the face of repeated oppression by the aristocracy, the poor people in the gray river finally couldn't bear it anymore.

They took up every weapon they could get their hands on and, led by Eduardo, began to rebel against the unjust oppression of the aristocracy.

The poor who have nothing have a strong conviction and do not lack the courage to die.

But the chasm between Fontaine and the Grey River is not something that can be bridged by will and conviction alone.

The rebellion failed.

The leader of the operation, Eduardo, was also captured and eventually sentenced to exile in the desert of Sumeru.

Thankfully, the surviving personnel of Grey River managed to save him during the escort, allowing Eduardo to reorganize his resistance.

[Dehya: Ah?!This is obviously your Fontaine's business, why did you exile the prisoner to our desert?!].

[Beidou: Haha, those noble lords don't even treat their compatriots in their own country seriously, do you expect them to care about people from other countries?].

[Navia: Uh... Don't have any stereotypes about the people of Fontaine, it was all five hundred years ago!].

[Funina: Navia is right! I have already swept those aristocratic forces into the dustbin of history!].

[Funina: In today's Fontaine, there will never be such a morally despicable person again!].

[Funina: Praise me for my nobility, hahahahaha!].

Since Funina, who is the god of water, said so, it is inconvenient for others to say anything more.

After secretly complaining a few words about the absurd behavior of the nobles of Fontaine, the audience's attention returned to the light curtain.

After escaping the predicament, Eduardo and others hijacked the escorts, occupied the town of Baisong, and proposed negotiations with the Fontaine officials.

Citing the hostages in their hands, they demanded concessions from Fontaine.

During the standoff, a journalist named Carl Ingold offered to negotiate before the situation deteriorated.

With hope in his heart, Karl traveled back and forth between Baisong and Fontaine, trying to resolve the conflict between the two sides.

Thanks to his tireless efforts, the negotiations have finally made progress.

To celebrate the coming peace, Carl took a photo with Eduardo and others in Baisong Town.

At the time, he probably didn't know how many people in the photo would have a huge impact on the whole of Fontaine and even Teyvat!

[Xingqiu: It's over! According to the classic flow of the novel, there should be an accident when the story develops here!].

[Yae Miko: yes, I'm afraid that the next thing to greet Eduardo will not be a good ending. 】

[Jean: It's clear that Carl has already persuaded Eduardo and Fontaine to take a step back, shouldn't this be a happy ending?!].

[Lisa: Hehe, how could those nobles tolerate the continued existence of the Grey River, the kindness they unleashed was just a cover to divert attention before actually making a move. 】

[Navia: Five hundred years ago... I'm afraid that's the only thing that happened in Baisong Town!].

[Shavoley: I have looked up the details of this incident in the archives of the Ruling Court, and this is a tragedy that should never have happened!].

What happened next was already known to the people of Fontaine.

And people in other countries also perceive something in the attitude of the people of Fontaine.

The audience's gaze returned to the light curtain, waiting for the tragedy that had already occurred to reappear before their eyes.

In that photograph taken by Carl, the mayor of Baisong Town, Renaud de Petrico, and his son, René de Petrico, have big smiles on their faces.

Beside them, an unsmiling Eduardo and his son Jacob stared straight into the camera of Carl.

They don't seem to be looking at Karl, nor a photocamera, but the future.

But what illuminates this photo is not the sunshine of tomorrow, but the blazing red light of Baisong Town.

Countless faces distorted by hatred, countless children's cries.

It eventually converged into a nightmare that Carl Ingold would never want to remember for the rest of his life.

It also converged into the most appalling Siege of Baisong incident in the history of Fontaine!

The Shadow Hunter who commanded the attack was named Emmanuel Guillotin.

After the Siege of Baisong, he resigned from his original position and lived with alcohol for life.

In the Siege of Baisong, many innocent lives were lost in the flames.

Among them were Renaud de Petrico and Eduardo.

The only good thing is that their sons, Rene and Jacob, survived.

The two poor children were sent to the Narcissus Cross, an official welfare home set up by Fontaine.

And in the welfare home, he met the best friend who will be entangled with them for life - Alain.

[Kamisato Ayaka: Those two children survived, and I don't know whether to say that they were lucky or unlucky...].

[Sangonomiya Kokomi: After such a tragic childhood, it may take a lifetime to heal the wounds in their hearts. 】

Nahida: This has been happening five hundred years ago, and all we see is their past. 】

[Charlotte: Speaking of which, it seems that a very familiar surname has just appeared!].

[Navia: I've noticed it too, Emmanuel Guiyodan!

[Higwen: Giyodan! This is the surname of the strange man back then! And he is also inextricably linked to our Merusin clan!].

[Alhaithham: Oh, is it Alain Guillotine, the famous genius in the history of Fontaine? I read his book not long ago. 】

[Alhaithham: I heard that the clockwork mechanism technology and the controllable manghuang energy technology that Fontaine is using today were developed by him. 】

[Azar: His Excellency Guiyodan has indeed achieved great things, and if he can help him, many of the problems that the Akademiya is facing today may be solved!].

[Paimon: Okay, that's amazing!].

[Charlotte: Wait!So, isn't the Narcissus dragon in the title known to the Strange Machine!].

[Charlotte: The strange man who once made outstanding contributions to Fontaine, his friend is actually a great sinner who endangers Fontaine!].

[Charlotte: This subject alone is enough to start a column!].

[Navillette: Miss Charlotte, I think I need to warn you. 】

[Navilet: Fontaine has a well-established legal system for smears and false reports. 】

[Charlotte: Ahahaha, Supreme Inquisitor, I'm joking!].

[Leosley: I think it's a good choice.] 】

[Leosley: To be able to become friends with the Strange Machine, this person's knowledge is probably very much beyond the reach of others. 】

[Leosley: How did such a genius go astray, and he was even called an evil dragon by this live broadcast room!].

[Funina: Hearing Duke Leosley say this, even I became curious!].

[Funina: Let me, as the god of justice, see what the evil dragon of the so-called narcissus has committed!].
