"Uh, like this, like that???", Alex came to the two purple stones and looked at them for a long time, even knocking on them. He poked them with his harbinger of dawn, but there was no reaction.
After being busy for a long time, there was still no reaction.
Frustrated, Alex directly pressed his hand on the purple, polluted siltstone. The next moment, he put it into his phone's backpack.
Alex really didn't expect that he had actually succeeded!
After putting both pieces away, the surrounding ground immediately returned to normal. At the same time, two Hydro bubbles appeared on both sides of the area, but only two Hydro bubbles without circles.
Good heavens, I just tried this… This is definitely not the correct solution.
But I did solve it, didn't I? Facing the newly appeared bubbles, Alex reached out and touched one. Instantly, the water ball burst, emitting a Hydro ripple that drenched Alex and Clorinde in Hydro element, turning them wet.
"..." Clorinde looked at her wet clothes, a bit speechless. It was so dangerous here, he needed to stay away from him.
After the ripple disappeared, Alex quickly ran to the other side and broke that Hydro bubble as well.
"Now that…" Alex was saying when he noticed the bubbles had revived?
My brain! I need my brain!
Alex instantly felt a headache. This puzzle was so annoying.
Alex ran back and forth several times, even trying to break one in one spot and the other with a thrown harbinger of dawn, breaking both at the same time, but the Hydro bubbles still revived.
So annoying… Just one more try. If it doesn't work, I'll let the Traveler handle it. I'm really bad at puzzles.
He didn't want to use his brain much. Who understood the pain of coming here without his mother?
The next moment, Alex put the two Hydro bubbles into his backpack like the stones. Hmm, the puzzle was still not solved.
"Alright! Let's go, let's go!", Alex immediately called out to Clorinde and rode on Baron Bunny.
Finally, he even "kindly" put the two purple stones back. What would he keep them for as a collection?
It's better to quickly go explore Fontaine and look for Ley Line Outcrops!

"Here…" Coming to another spot, this time Alex hadn't even finished speaking.
Clorinde, behind him, introduced, "This is the Weeping Willow of the Lake."
"Wow, a tree that's been growing for many years. It's a pity it's all yellow but not dead yet," Alex exclaimed as he passed by, then just walked around the big tree once and left.
Passing by a certain spot, even with Baron Bunny's shield, he felt it: "Ugh! What strong winds!"
This time, Clorinde was the first to introduce: "Urania Lake. The wind always blows strongly here; I've never seen it stop."
"It might be because of that water pillar ball in the middle. We have Baron Bunny, so this much wind is nothing. Let's rush in and see," Alex said, approaching. "How can wind come out of a water pillar?"
Alex drove at a casual speed of three or four hundred, braving the strong winds, and arrived at the center of the lake several kilometers away.
Alex finally parked Baron Bunny behind the trunk of a tree that was sheltered from the wind, and said to Clorinde, "Clorinde, you sit on Baron Bunny for now. I'll go check the situation."
The next moment, Alex directly plunged into the water pillar, which was almost as tall as a high-rise building.
Within a few seconds, Alex's body was carried by the current to the large water ball at the top of the water pillar.
It was quite high, and he found nothing. Alex also didn't dare to swim directly to the edge and jump out.
That's why a Wind Glider is such a good thing.
Against the current, Alex took more time than it took to go up with the current.
After coming out, he stood by Baron Bunny and let the strong wind blow. His clothes dried in no time.
"I don't know either. I just went in and looked. There were no Anemogranums or anything inside. There were no traces of wind inside, but there was strong wind blowing outside. It's really strange." After getting back on the vehicle, Alex couldn't help but shake his head regretfully.
Although the scenery in Fontaine was all beautiful, it was all very strange.
Maybe it's like those in Liyue that require a super long quest to solve before it becomes normal, probably.
Leaving here, Alex traveled a long mountain road.
Avoiding the obstruction of the mountains, Alex clearly saw many blue water cubes floating in the air in the distance.
Speaking of which, he had indeed seen this place before, but it was always from a far distance, treated as a very small background.
This time, Alex came to the bottom of the multiple water cubes and looked up, and it appeared so spectacular.
"This is the Central Laboratory Ruins. Previously, an accident occurred here when scientists were conducting experiments. The Fontaine Research Institute's experiment exploded. This happened in recent decades," Clorinde knew more about this place.
Alex sighed, then found a Statue of The Seven and continued to activate it.
He had been driving and sightseeing, looking for Ley Line Outcrops, and along the way, he also activated many Teleport Waypoints.
In front of the Statue of The Seven, Alex asked, "Oh, Clorinde, what region is this considered? Right now, I only know the Beryl Region."
"To be precise, most of the northern part of Fontaine is the territory of the Fontaine Research Institute. There aren't any specific regional divisions, so you can just consider it the Scientific Research Zone," Clorinde replied.
At the same time, Clorinde extended his hand, not forgetting to point to a location: "In that direction is the new Fontaine Research Institute, after this ruin exploded."
Research Institute, understood. It's just a bunch of inventors and scholars, Alex had no interest in it.
Following the path of a small waterfall down to the sea, Alex began to speed across the sea again.
Hmm, this time, he was driving along the southern sea of the new Fontaine Research Institute, following the coastline.
"Oh, by the way, what region did our previous big willow tree, foggy path, and lake belong to?" Driving Baron Bunny, Alex couldn't help but ask again.
Well, he didn't remember the full names of those three places.
But it didn't matter. Clorinde replied, "Hmm, they belong to the Erinnyes Forest, along with the Opera Epiclese."
Clorinde paused intentionally. This was Erinnyes, not Erinnyes Forest.
Although emphasizing it this way, Alex might not remember, but he definitely had to leave him with some impression.
"Oh." Alex seemed to remember and not remember. He would get an impression when he heard it more often later.
Now, a smile appeared on Alex's face. He had almost explored half of Fontaine and finally found the location of a Ley Line Outcrops.
A blue energy cluster was floating in a corner by the shore.
It was really hard to find! I had such a hard time!
The next moment, Alex directly floored the accelerator and charged!
"Clorinde, it's battle time!", Alex said, directly putting away Baron Bunny and entering combat mode.
Clorinde also pulled out his two weapons.
