To be honest, there aren't too many characters who use the Hydro element.
Alex's first thought was of the Hydro Archon Furina.
But then he shook his head; he had been with her for so many days, yet he had never seen her make a move.
So, among the Hydro element characters one could find in Fontaine, there was only one choice left!
"Please wait for me a few minutes, you two. I'll be right back!" Alex said to Navia and Chiori, and then he vanished in a flash.
Chiori and Navia exchanged glances, then walked off the stage and sat in the audience, watching the Legendary Phoenix dance in the center of the arena.
"Help me, Mr. Neuvillette!" In the large office on the first floor of the Palais Mermonia, Alex pushed open the door and simultaneously spoke to Neuvillette inside.
His luck wasn't bad; Neuvillette was currently working in there.
"Oh, what can I do for you?" This time, Neuvillette didn't make Alex wait and spoke to him directly.
So, Alex sat down nearby and began to briefly explain the situation... "Dancing automatons? I know them. The Academy developed them."
"Chiori? Navia??? I'm sorry, but I'm very busy with official duties here, and besides, I rarely make a move. Just fighting them, I believe it would be easy with your strength."
Neuvillette flatly refused and then dismissed him.
Alex had no choice but to leave with a sigh of regret.
Before leaving, Alex didn't forget to give Neuvillette a strawberry juice, and even made him an extra lemonade.
As for the water-spraying image, Alex initially used a small Neuvillette, but later, after some thought, he directly switched to a small Sigewinne.
"Hmm..." At this moment, Alex had already left the office, and Neuvillette silently watched the lemonade made with the small Sigewinne.
He reached out and took a sip of the lemonade first.
"Mmm, sweet and fragrant. The taste is indeed good." Neuvillette narrowed his eyes in satisfaction; fruit-flavored water was also very good.
"Phew! Sorry for the wait!" Alex ran back to the Legendary Phoenix.
"What were you doing just now?" Navia was now holding her parasol, one arm intimately wrapped around Chiori's.
Chiori, on the other hand, sat there obediently, turning her head to look at Alex. She didn't resist the girl's intimate gesture too much, and she could also share the parasol for shade.
"Oh, don't even ask! I originally wanted to find Neuvillette and ask him for help, but in the end, I was still rejected." Alex sighed, lowering his head, and sat down beside the two.
"You actually went to find Neuvillette just now!" Navia couldn't help but raise her voice; she really hadn't expected that Alex had been doing that.
"Does Neuvillette rarely make a move?" Alex asked Navia.
"I haven't seen much of it, but you could ask his kin," Navia said.
"Kin?" Alex was puzzled.
"The Melusine!" Navia said with certainty.
"Ah, no way?" Alex scratched his head. He, who hadn't even looked into it much, knew Neuvillette was the Hydro Dragon Sovereign, so why had he become a Melusine in Navia's eyes?
Navia introduced Neuvillette to Alex: "Well, the people of Fontaine all say he's the only male Melusine, which is why he lives for so long. I heard that Neuvillette has existed in Fontaine for at least several hundred years!"
"Uh, perhaps!" So, everyone thought that now?
"Eh? Then why doesn't anyone think Neuvillette is an otter spirit?" Alex spread his hands.
"Otter?" Navia thought about what an otter looked like, then what Neuvillette looked like, and suddenly Navia burst into happy laughter: "Haha, hahaha!!!"
"As expected of little Menghai! Your imagination is still so abstract!" Navia said, patting Alex's shoulder.
Last time, he used the image of a sweating emoji to describe himself, and this time, he vividly used an otter to describe Neuvillette.
"Hahaha, haha!" Navia was still laughing; she hadn't stopped.
"Uh, is it that funny?" Alex looked at Chiori, speechless.
Chiori, on the other hand, blinked at Alex. She didn't know! She didn't know any Neuvillette, nor had she ever seen him in person, let alone an otter in the water. She didn't understand this otter joke from Fontaine.
After all, Chiori, who came from Inazuma, couldn't go into the water! Chiori herself wasn't very familiar with swimming.
A moment later, Alex still said, speechless: "You're still laughing! You haven't stopped at all!"
"Haha, sorry. Ha, I haha just hahaha... It's too funny, I can't stop!" Navia finished this sentence, even starting to gasp for air.
Feeling Navia's body constantly shaking beside him, the two mounds in front of her also kept rubbing against his arm.
Chiori also became more and more speechless, but speaking of it, Navia's figure seemed better than she had imagined!
A perfect adult female body proportion, very suitable for her female model!
As Chiori thought this, her expression towards Navia also began to change, as if she was looking at a mannequin that she could pose however she wished.
Seeing Navia laughing so hard she was almost out of breath, Chiori quickly hugged her and reached out to pat her back.
Navia also adjusted her emotions under Chiori's motherly pats, trying her best not to laugh anymore.
"Alright, alright! We should go to the center of the arena to play." Seeing Navia gradually stabilize, Alex finally said.
"Okay!" Navia stood up and was the first to walk towards the center of the arena!
When she reached not far in front of the Legendary Phoenix, her emotions had returned to normal. She seriously raised her parasol.
Closely following was Alex, bringing Chiori closer.
What a pity, in the end, they still didn't gather four people.
When he left Neuvillette's office earlier, Alex also casually asked Sedene outside the door, who told him that Chevreuse and Clorinde were both out.
As for the others, because Navia and Chiori were waiting for him, there was no time to wait for new members to join.
Three people can still fight!
"Ready! Action!" In the distance, Maillardet shouted loudly.
Finally seeing that the three of them were about to prepare for battle, Maillardet quickly turned on his camera, adjusted the focus, and prepared to collect battle records!
"'Nemesis of Coppelius,' Battle Record Act Two, Begin!" Maillardet said simultaneously.
That's right, they hadn't collected much data for this experiment yet, after all, it was very difficult for ordinary people to fight these two automatons, and the experiment often failed after not lasting long.
And those with sufficient combat power or a Vision were few and far between!
This was truly a rare opportunity! Maillardet was incredibly excited!
The progress of the experiment could finally take a big step forward!
In the center of the arena, Alex threw out the small Sigewinne, while quickly retreating and summoning his Baron Bunny to float behind him.
Chiori and Navia were both a little speechless; this guy actually ran so far away as soon as he started, how could he let two girls stand in front of the monsters?
But Chiori and Navia were both strong women, and this thought was only momentary before it was cast aside.
Chiori was the first to rush towards the still dancing Legendary Phoenix with her twin Swords.
And Navia directly lowered her center of gravity and held her black and gold parasol horizontally.
The next moment, a Geo element energy cannonball flew out from the tip of the parasol and hit them!
Warm-up time, activate!
