Su Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, but this ti, it wasn't the sa strange sensation as before...
This ti, he felt dizzy, exhausted, and weak, as if he could collapse into sleep at any mont...
And in the palm of his left hand, what he felt wasn't just a slight sting, but a sharp, searing pain...
Had he rewind again? But why did it feel different this ti?
Su Yuan quickly raised his left hand to look at his palm, only to see so ssy, crooked, and barely legible writing:
[Emperor my stab joy...] Raw : Di wu ci le
[Blur wealth rudder proper strength...] Raw : Xiao xin Duo Tuo Lei
[Million peak drug complete wine Abundance and solidify Sodium...] Raw : Yi ding yao zheng jiu Fu Ning Na
TL note : For whoever not familiar with chinese, they have 5 tones and each character have different aning, for example Mother and horse ( ma ) have the sa reading word but different tone. The sa with the text above, they were just gibberish word that don't have any aning.
Compared to the previous engravings, these new markings didn't seem to be carved with a knife.
Instead, they looked like scars left behind by so kind of laser or high-temperature force that had burned and corroded the skin...
And these words—what did they an?
They were completely incomprehensible!
Just as Su Yuan was trying to make sense of them, the door to the hospital room suddenly burst open, and a visibly anxious lusine from the Gardes arrived in a hurry.
"Lord Neuvillette! Sothing terrible has happened! The Armored Crabs among the Primordial Sea have gone into a mass frenzy, and several coastal villages have already been completely destroyed!"
"Based on the latest reports, at least 30 people have been killed, and over a hundred have been injured!"
"Which coastal villages were affected?" Neuvillette asked.
"Several villages, scattered across Fontaine." lusine responded, before proceeding to share more detailed information.
After listening, Neuvillette nodded, then turned to the others, making a sincere request:
"Although this is not your mission, I implore you to lend a hand—to help , to help Fontaine overco this sudden crisis."
"Neuvillette, why are you saying such formal things? Faced with sothing like this, even if you didn't ask, we wouldn't just stand by and do nothing!" Wriothesley spoke up.
"Protecting Fontaine has always been one of the core duties of the Special Security and Surveillance Patrol," Chevreuse added.
"This is great—another chance to fight!" Tartaglia's eyes lit up, clearly excited.
Everyone voiced their agreent and began discussing how to split into teams to head out to the different disaster-stricken areas.
Only Su Yuan remained silent, staring at the ssage on the palm of his left hand, still trying to decipher its aning...
A new line of text had appeared on his palm.
Could this an he had indeed triggered another return—another rewind?
Su Yuan knew himself well.
He was a cautious person.
If it hadn't been absolutely necessary, he wouldn't have risked initiating another rewind...
If that's the case, then he really did perform a fifth rewind.
But this new ssage was incredibly vague—so abstract it was almost as if it wasn't helpful at all.
[Emperor my stab joy...] Raw : Di wu ci le
If he interpreted it literally, did it an sothing like: 'I stabbed the Emperor and felt happy about it'?
But he was clearly in Fontaine... how could he possibly have anything to do with Zhongli all the way over in Liyue?
"Di wu ci le... Di wu ci le... Di wu ci le..." Su Yuan repeated the phrase over and over, and then—suddenly—he realized sothing!
"The fifth ti???" *raw read "the fifth ti" is Di wu ci le but just a different tone
Could it be that the phrase was a homophone, hinting that he had just gone through his fifth rewind?
Now that he understood the pattern, Su Yuan's thinking suddenly cleared and beca more active.
"Xiao xin Duo Tuo Lei... be careful of Dottore..."
So, this ti's Primordial Sea creature rampage—it really was Dottore's doing?
"Yi ding yao zheng jiu Fu Ning Na..."
"I must... save... Furina..."
As soon as Su Yuan deciphered the final ssage's aning, his mind exploded with a thunderous realization!
"I must save Furina???"
Could it be that sothing had happened to Furina in the previous tiline, which made him desperate enough to trigger a rewind?
A deep sense of unease welled up inside Su Yuan.
He turned toward Neuvillette, his voice urgent:
"Neuvillette, Furina is in danger!"
Seeing the expression on Su Yuan's face, Neuvillette grew serious as well and asked,
"Su Yuan, did you see sothing again?"
"I don't know exactly," Su Yuan replied firmly, "but I have a strong feeling—this is all part of Dottore's sche. We need to return to Furina's side and protect her!"
"Lord Neuvillette, you should go with Su Yuan and stay by Lady Furina's side," Clorinde said calmly.
"Even though that disaster zone suffered the most damage, with my authority and rules, I can handle it alone."
"There's no one more suited for this than ."
Aether looked at Su Yuan, visibly confused.
Just now, Su Yuan had been staring at his left palm and muttering strange phrases...
Did he... experience another rewind?
But why didn't Aether have any mory of it?
Although he really wanted to talk to Su Yuan more, there was no ti for idle conversation now.
The others rushed toward the affected disaster zones, while Neuvillette and Su Yuan began preparing to return to Palais rmonia.
..............
But when Su Yuan and Neuvillette returned to the Palais rmonia, Furina was nowhere to be found in her private suite.
"To the Opera Epiclese!" Su Yuan said without a mont of hesitation.
When Neuvillette and Su Yuan arrived at the entrance of the Opéra Epiclese, they found Furina squatting on the ground, poking at the cheek of a security officer who was collapsed on the floor.
She looked puzzled and said:
"Eh? Why are they sleeping on the ground? They're snoring so loudly—must be having a really good nap..."
"But isn't it work hours right now? Sleeping on the job will get your pay docked, you know..."
"Furina!"
Hearing soone call her from behind, Furina turned her head and was surprised to see Neuvillette and Su Yuan.
"Eh? Su Yuan? Neuvillette? You're only arriving now? I thought you'd already gone to see Focalors to discuss counterasures!"
As she spoke, she pointed at the guards lying on the ground.
"Do you two have any idea what's going on with them?"
"Furina, you're safe... that's truly a relief."
Seeing the unhard, healthy Furina standing before him, Su Yuan finally let out a breath of relief.
Looking at the guards collapsed on the ground, Neuvillette spoke up:
"Their current condition is clearly man-made..."
"I have a feeling the enemy has already infiltrated the opera house."
"The enemy? Then wouldn't Focalors be in danger?" Furina said worriedly.
"If it were just an ordinary enemy, it might be fine... but the one currently inside the opera house is most likely The Doctor—Dottore..."
"Furina, go to the Gardes or the Special Patrol unit's station. It should be a bit safer there. Or find a secluded place to hide. Neuvillette and I will go inside and check the situation."
Su Yuan spoke firmly—he couldn't allow Furina to remain exposed to danger any longer.
"But..." Furina hesitated, her voice unsure.
"Furina, just listen to Su Yuan for now. Leave the rest to us," Neuvillette said calmly.
"You know how well Su Yuan and I work together."
"If we can eliminate Dottore as a threat here, that would be the best outco."
And so, Su Yuan and Neuvillette cautiously stepped into the opera house...
