Chapter 264 Water God, Death Penalty!
Chapter 264 Water God, Death Penalty!
Upon hearing this, Funina's face changed. The original fetal sea water was like a poison to the people of Fontaine and could take their lives at any time. But now, she had to face this problem.
Funina remained calm, but her heart was struggling: should she go or not?
If she goes, she might face the risk of being eroded into water by the original fetal sea water. If she doesn't go, doesn't it prove that she has been fooling the public all along?
Under the gazes of everyone, Funina slowly came to the basin filled with original fetal sea water, looking at the liquid in the basin with a strange beauty. She knew that it was this thing that turned all the people in Baisong Town into water.
Facing the impending death, Finina was unable to remain calm. Only she knew that she was not a water god, but just a mortal with a long life.
Except for the life span, she has everything a human should have, which naturally includes fear.
She subconsciously looked around, only to find that everyone around her was staring at her with a scrutinizing eye. At this moment, those gazes seemed to become invisible hands, pushing her to the edge of the abyss.
However, at this moment, she suddenly noticed different gazes. Jiang Ruoli and Jiang Xun were standing in the back, watching the field with concern. Jiang Ruoli noticed Funina's gaze and shook her head silently, signaling her not to continue to hold on.
Jiang Xun had a serious expression. He looked at Ying and Paimeng at the appeal desk, wondering what they were trying to do.
"Thank you..."
After saying this silently in her heart, Funina took a deep breath again. She didn't want to give up. If she gave up now, all the suffering she had endured in the past five hundred years would be in vain, and the people of Fontaine would be swallowed up by the primordial fetal sea as predicted.
No one knew what she was thinking at the moment. Instead, Funina's next step was to put her hand into the water containing the original fetal sea, which surprised everyone present.
The same thing happened to Jiang Xun. He was ready to go forward and pull Funina back, but the imagined transformation into water did not happen. Funina was still standing on the stage intact.
This scene really made the people below have different ideas.
"Look, I didn't turn into water. Does this prove that I'm the God of Water?"
Funina stretched out her hand and put a confident smile on her face again, but her heart was beating wildly at this moment, which was enough to prove how intense the emotional fluctuations she had just experienced were.
Fortunately, her identity was not exposed and the original fetal sea water could not dissolve it. Although she didn't know why, everyone only cares about the results, right?
Furninna returned to the dock, quietly calming herself down and lowering her heartbeat.
And just as she thought, the people watching below had basically dispelled their doubts. Just as they thought, the water god would not be affected by the original fetal sea water.
However, an inappropriate voice appeared in the courtroom again, breaking the atmosphere.
"Head nurse, please check Ms. Funina's hand."
Navilet said this at the highest judgement seat. Just as she finished speaking, a girl named Melusin who looked almost like a human little girl walked onto the stage. She softly pulled up Furninna's hand that had been inserted into the fetal sea water and began to examine it.
After a short while, she nodded, making a humming sound.
Then he walked down from the judge's seat, came to the stage and said to Villette: "Ms. Funinna's hands are consistent with the normal reaction of Fontaine people when they come into contact with fetal water."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar. The balance that had originally tilted towards Furninna quietly rose, and she was at a disadvantage again.
"How is that possible? That's primordial fetal sea water. You saw it, I put my hand in it!"
Funina looked panicked, she had not expected things to develop in this direction.
Navia, who was in the audience, stood up and explained the reason.
It turned out that they had lowered the concentration of the water in the original fetal sea. This concentration would not cause the Fontaine people to dissolve, but would instead make people excited like Les.
The condition of her skin proves it.
After this explanation, everyone understood. At this time, they looked at Funina again, wanting to know whether she could still come up with evidence to refute the situation.
It was at this moment that Finina completely panicked. Everyone's eyes were once again focused on her, but unlike the previous reverence, this time the eyes were filled with judgment.
The unwillingness in her heart drove her to continue to defend herself, but things had come to this point and no amount of explanation would be of any use. She slumped in the chair, tears streaming down her cheeks.
After five hundred years of acting...has it finally been exposed?
Villette looked at Fontaine helplessly and sighed. He didn't want to make things come to this point. Publicly, it was a very shameful thing that the god of Fontaine had been replaced by others. Personally, he had been with this girl for hundreds of years and he didn't want her to end up like this.
But this time it concerns the prophecy and the fate of the entire Fontaine, so he has to conduct a trial.
The hammer of judgment fell.
"I declare that Furninha is...guilty"
The Oracle began to work when he issued the guilty verdict, and then the verdict from the Cardinal of Oracles also arrived.
Navilette picked up the verdict card, and then his expression changed.
After a moment of silence, the contents of the trial were made public: "The verdict of the Oracle is: Water God, death penalty!"
capital offense?!
The appearance of this charge once again brought up the atmosphere of the courtroom. They had not expected that the verdict of the Oracle would be so severe. The death penalty charge was almost non-existent in the judicial history of Fontaine.
"Old Jiang, please save her, okay?"
Jiang Ruoli was also shocked when she heard the accusation, and immediately asked Jiang Xun in a pleading tone.
She couldn't understand why Furninna was sentenced to death.
"Don't worry, no one will die today."
Jiang Xun looked at the oracle with a serious gaze. He knew from the beginning that Funina was not the water god.
That is to say, this death penalty is a verdict on the real water god, but who in the whole of Fontaine can make a verdict on the water god?
Even Villette couldn't do it. The answer was undoubtedly that this death sentence was issued to him by the real water god Fucarus.
Is the real water god really inside the oracle?
When she heard the verdict, Furninna didn't say anything, but her tears continued to flow. She had tried her best and endured five hundred years of loneliness and pain, but in the end, she was still discovered.
At this moment, Jiang Xun only felt a familiar breath approaching rapidly.
Then cracks appeared in the ground.
A strange look appeared on his face.
"I knew it had other intentions."
