The first part is a more rational analysis,
mainly talking about analyzing Si Xuan through the information revealed so far.
It's quite rigorous and well-supported.
But the following analysis makes people's minds wander.
"After the rigorous analysis, let's talk about some speculative guesses.
It's not a serious investigation, just for fun.
In Si Xuan's voice pack, he says 'Water Dragon, Water Dragon, don't cry' when it rains.
This kind of thing sounds like a local custom in Fontaine,
meaning that many people may say that when it rains.
This Water Dragon, I think, should be the Hydro Archon.
The source of this speculation isn't this sentence, but Si Xuan's knowledge of the Elemental Dragons.
He first revealed that Sumeru has a Dendro Archon because Inazuma doesn't have an Elemental Archon.
So the Elemental Dragon line was ignored by us.
Why does Si Xuan know so much about Elemental Dragons?
Although he's lived for five hundred years, a lot of the history of the Elemental Archons has been erased.
Where did he get all this information about Elemental Dragons?
There's only one answer: Si Xuan knows the Hydro Archon.
Here's my personal speculation. As we all know, Fontaine is based on the French Republic.
When we talk about the French Republic, we have to mention Louis XVI's guillotine.
So the Fontaine version of the story might also revolve around this story.
We know that the Hydro Archon is on the side of Celestia. If my analysis above is correct,
then Si Xuan is the enemy of Celestia, and the Elemental Dragons are naturally on the opposite side of Celestia.
These two have a common enemy and a basis for cooperation.
So I think in Fontaine in the future,
it's very likely that Si Xuan will join forces with the Hydro Archon to judge the Hydro Archon.
As for who the Hydro Archon really is, I guess it might be the Grand Inquisitor, Navilet.
The reason is that Si Xuan stepped down from his position.
There are three people at the peak of power in Fontaine: the Hydro Archon, Focalors,
the Grand Inquisitor, Navilet, and the Diplomat, Si Xuan.
Before Navilet appeared, the second in command was Si Xuan.
But after Navilet arrived, Si Xuan became the third in command.
Si Xuan is not someone who would do a losing trade. Becoming the third in command,
both his power and wealth would be greatly reduced.
So I speculate that Si Xuan and Navilet cooperated, waiting for the right moment to overthrow the Hydro Archon."
Although he had already stacked a lot of armor before starting the analysis,
this speculation is still accepted by many netizens.
After all, it's logical and well-supported,
but of course, some people think it's just wild guessing.
After all, many people still believe that Sangonomiya Kokomi is the Water Dragon.
Because Kokomi's Constellation is the Sleeping Dragon.
Hydro, humanoid, dragon's Constellation, plus the fact that there are no Elemental Dragons in Inazuma,
it really stacks the buffs.
Si Xuan's popularity also increased by 100,000 due to this discussion.
Only 1,000,000 is left to unlock the character story for his Elemental Skill.
Teyvat, Aaru Village.
Faced with Si Xuan's invitation, Faruzan is very hesitant.
Through reading these days,
Faruzan also understands the current situation of the Akademiya.
If she goes back to the Akademiya, she won't be able to change the decline of the Khemia faction.
Khemia research is like a theoretical foundation.
It takes a lot of money and time, but the results are minimal.
If she goes back now, will she be able to successfully apply for research funding?
In the game, Faruzan went back because she had no choice.
But now there is an option like Si Xuan.
Abundant personnel, abundant funds, high freedom,
such good conditions are enough to make Faruzan tempted.
"This... I think I'll go back to the Akademiya and adapt for a while. Three months, how about I give you an answer after three months?"
After thinking for a long time, Faruzan finally decided to go back to the Akademiya.
The content in the books needs to be verified by experiments.
As a researcher, Faruzan still wants to verify it personally.
Si Xuan didn't expect Faruzan to agree immediately.
After she goes back, she will understand what kind of situation the Akademiya is currently in.
Si Xuan left the room and didn't return to Sumeru City.
Instead, he used the Teleport Waypoint to reach the depths of the desert.
Dama Mountain, the Land of Three Conveyances.
As soon as Si Xuan used the Teleport Waypoint to reach this place, he felt a force surrounding him.
It's faint, like flickering. Every time Si Xuan moves, this force changes.
Following the route in his memory, Si Xuan walked southeast.
Passing through broken walls and ruins, the wind and sand swirling from the center of Dama Mountain made Si Xuan have difficulty opening his eyes.
Facing the wind and sand, Si Xuan walked forward with some difficulty.
The pressure from the force surrounding his body became stronger and stronger.
Si Xuan's heart also became heavier.
The pressure emanating from the warning alone was so terrifying.
What would be the result if he unleashed his full power?
The wind and sand became stronger, so strong that it was impossible to move forward.
Si Xuan had no choice but to take something out of his magic pocket.
A sparkling water droplet.
Soft Hydro energy appeared, surrounding Si Xuan, and the powerful wind and sand could not harm him at all.
Even the pressure around his body dissipated a lot.
"Apep, I want to talk to you."
Si Xuan didn't continue forward, but chose to call out.
Suddenly, strong tremors came from afar.
The wind and sand increased by three or four times. Ordinary people standing here wouldn't be able to open their eyes, let alone stand.
Si Xuan was fine thanks to the protection of the Hydro element.
Amidst the wind and sand, a huge body emerged.
It was winding and winding like a mountain range.
A pair of eyes glowed faintly,
like a lighthouse flying in a sandstorm.
"The aura of a Hydro Dragon. Human, are you a servant of the Hydro Archon?"
The Dendro Dragon, Apep, hidden in the sandstorm, finally agreed to talk to Si Xuan.
"Servant is a bit harsh. It's more like a colleague, or a partner."
Si Xuan's answer seemed to anger Apep, her voice involuntarily became louder.
"I can't believe it, the Water Dragon, who is the heart of the abyss, is actually in league with humans.
, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Si Xuan rubbed his slightly swollen ears.
"I want to make a deal with you, about forbidden knowledge."
As soon as forbidden knowledge was mentioned, Apep seemed to have an allergic reaction.
Just now, her voice just became a bit louder.
Now the entire area was shaking and the whirlwind in the center of Dama Mountain even weakened a bit.
"Forbidden knowledge? A mere human dares to covet forbidden knowledge? The ancient god Amons was corrupted by forbidden knowledge.
Even I... Go away, human. For the sake of being the envoy of the Hydro Archon,
I will not harm you, but forbidden knowledge is not something you can touch."
Apep didn't even think about it before refusing Si Xuan.
After accepting forbidden knowledge, she knew how坑爹 it was.
"That's why I'm here. I don't have any intention to touch forbidden knowledge. I just want to make a deal with you."
Si Xuan currently has no intention of contacting forbidden knowledge.
After all, who knows if Celestia will suddenly drop a 寒天之钉?
Apep obviously didn't accept Si Xuan's kindness.
"I'm telling you again, envoy of the Water Dragon, leave this place, or you will face the wrath of the Dendro Dragon."
Suddenly, Si Xuan felt the pressure he was facing suddenly increase.
The Hydro element that was originally surrounding his body instantly dissipated.
The wind and sand began to affect him again.

As I was writing, I realized that the scale of the game world and the real world is not easy to determine, and I've been thinking about it for the past few days, so the update has been a bit slow.
After modifying it for a long time, the outline is finally finalized. I'll resume normal updates tomorrow.
