Original God, but the real world

Chapter 205-The Worst Case

Jiang Qing rarely thinks about who should be saved.

The main reason was that he couldn't even save himself, so he couldn't feel much sympathy for these people who he had only come into contact with in the game.

Seriously speaking, there are actually many people in Xumi who are in urgent need of rescue.

For example, Dina Zedai, Nashida, and even a few children living near Vimo Manor.

Jiang Qing didn't do anything himself, he even held Ying back, making the situation even worse.

It is foreseeable that if Ying did not save these people, Dinazede would probably die completely because of the harvest behind the cycle of the Flower God's Birthday Season. Lannaro near Vimo Manor would sooner or later be unable to be protected. At that time, the Gilded Brigade and the Fatui would probably not mind capturing Lannaro and teaching the child to keep secrets at the same time.

It seemed like he should set out immediately to rescue these people. After all, if he didn't, they would die.

But Jiang Qing had no intention and did not feel that he would be charged with murder just because he did nothing.

The responsibility for the murder can be thrown to the House of Justice and the Fatui, or to the Gilded Brigade who were used as swords. Jiang Qing just didn't think that he, who did nothing, was also to blame.

There are too many people in this world who need to be saved. If an adventurer on the snowy mountain is in danger, Jiang Qing knows it but does not save him, and then he dies, so this is Jiang Qing’s responsibility?
There is no such thing.

Everyone has to bear their own sufferings in life.

The House of the Lords has the responsibility for this inevitable war, because the people of Xumi provide support to the House of the Lords. Since they have accepted the power to drive the people of Xumi, they naturally have to fight for the prosperity of Xumi and the dignity of the people of Xumi.

But the House of the Decrees did not.

In the battle with the Fatui, the Order of the Fatui was the first to surrender to the enemy.

The Doctor provided the technology for the God-making Project and the experimental subject Sanbing, and then the College of the Fatui instantly turned to the Fatui.

Of course, in the eyes of the sages, this is cooperation.

But knowing that the Fatui were taking children fishing, he did not stop them, but instead used excuses like "the overall situation is more important" and "complete the cooperation first" to deceive himself into being patient temporarily. This is enough to prove who has the highest dominance between the two parties.

There may be many reasons for enjoying rights but refusing to assume the obligation to protect the people, but the consequences of the actions are only one.

"Hazard is anxious."

Jiang Qing sighed softly.

The Doctor must have known by now that Nashida's body is in the Palace of Purity.

The subsequent plot is that the Doctor blocked Nashida's consciousness, forcing her to stay in the Palace of Purity.

Afterwards, Nashida took the initiative to close her own consciousness, plunging herself into a thoughtless darkness to avoid providing any information to others.

But really, it doesn't do much good.

Normal people would not ensure their own safety by hurting themselves. Narcida even fell to the point of closing her self-consciousness to keep the secret, which means that she actually has no resistance to the Doctor.

In other words, the Doctor didn't want to do anything, otherwise Narcida's divine life would probably have ended here.

Closing off her self-consciousness meant that Nashida's only protection was the meditation device that had originally imprisoned her.

The meditation device that the Great Compassion Tree King used to maintain a moment of tranquility became Nashida's imprisonment device, and now the imprisonment device has become a protective device... If Nashida had grown up normally in the past five hundred years, she would not have fallen to this point.

He is too weak.

However, even such a weak god still aroused Azar's fear.

He began to worry. Even if the meditation device could still imprison Nashida now, what if it was hundreds of years later?
When Nashida was born, she had no power to resist, but now she can roam the land of Sumeru with her own will.

Sooner or later, he will be connected to the World Tree like the Great Compassionate Tree King and become the God of Wisdom.

The wise men of that era were absolutely unable to resist the power from the gods.

"What's worse is that Azar believes that Nashida will definitely take action against the House of the Decrees."

Ying can understand Azar's concerns.

They did evil things, but to be frank, they were all dead a hundred years later, just like the original group of six sages, who were the first to imprison the gods.

But they are all dead.

No matter how angry Nashida was, what could she do to a group of dead people?

Even if the bones are reduced to dust, there is actually no real value left.

"But at least some people are still alive." Jiang Qing looked calm. "Even if the six sages are dead, what if their descendants are still alive?"

Once one enters the class of great sages and wise men, it is easy to start a family.

It is difficult for such a family to collapse within a hundred years. If they are lucky, by the time Nashida comes to power, Azar's descendants may still be there.

As for these dead sages, Nashida could only grind their bones to dust, but she could only rage helplessly.

But what about the surviving descendants of these sages?

Although it seemed a bit far-fetched for the gods to hold them responsible, Azar asked himself that although sages of all ages had also imprisoned Nashida, none of them had done what he had done.

In this case, it is only natural that he will be liquidated in the future.

Even if there is no family, the six sages system of the Order Institute will probably be completely destroyed by Nashida.

"Of course, it could also be that after I die, I don't care about the flood... But Azar doesn't have this idea."

"He wants to completely resolve the conflict between the Six Sages and the God of Wisdom in this generation."

Ying looked at the Xumi City not far away and said some very dangerous words expressionlessly.

The so-called resolving of conflicts certainly does not mean that everyone should show goodwill to each other, then accept each other's kindness, and finally become good friends who care about each other.

A better way to resolve the problem is to do something practical and from the heart.

When the enemy dies, there will naturally be no more conflicts.

The only problem is that, as a mortal, Hazard was the first one to take action against the gods.

"It's only a matter of time." Jiang Qing was not surprised. "Since the imprisonment has been done, it will naturally leave an impact."

Sima Yi's oath at Luoshui made oaths become something on paper from then on. For a hundred years, people paid the price for the resulting collapse of rites and music.

In order to repair the collapse of rituals and music and make oaths valuable again, people in later generations paid a huge price.

Objectively speaking, the value of ritual and music lies in restraining the people and the nobles, making the entire country harmonious and orderly, and making everyone abide by the same rules.

In addition, Sima Yi's story also made later dynasties realize that powerful officials must die.

This has nothing to do with age. When he stabbed Cao Wei in the back, he was already 70 years old. According to the average age of people in ancient times, his 70 years old is basically equivalent to over 80 or nearly 90 years old today.

It was such an old man who was able to bring about dramatic changes at the national level and establish the Sima family dynasty on the corpse of Cao Wei.

What he did alone served as a warning to later dynasties.

No matter how old he is or whether he is about to die, as long as he can still hold power and threaten the throne of future emperors, he must die.

He successfully turned the competition into a brutal struggle of "I don't care whether you can do this or not, as long as I doubt you can do it, you will die."

This is certainly not the credit of Sima Yi alone. Objectively speaking, the imperial power would have developed to this point sooner or later, and could even continue to develop.

But Sima Yi was indeed one of those who made "great contributions".

Everything anyone does leaves a trace.

Since the first generation of sages had chosen to imprison the gods, even the six sages of the second generation gave up doing so and instead placed Nashida back on the throne of god.

That's no use.

Nashida will inevitably formulate modification plans based on what the Sages have already done, including but not limited to directly reconstructing the pyramid system of the House of the Decrees.

He himself has experienced the pain of being stabbed in the back by the sages. Even if there may not be a next God of Grass, the next God of Grass will not be as weak as he was when he was born, but he still has to take necessary precautions.

This is what Hazard is worried about.

He had no choice.

The decision to imprison the sages was made five hundred years ago. As the current great sage, he could only accept the troubles brought about by the decision of the previous group of six sages.

Besides, he did more and more cruelly.

Because he not only wants to imprison gods, but also wants to create gods and eliminate gods.

Nashida probably noticed this.

With His ability, He should be able to detect the malice in a person's heart.

But He could not resist.

"So we are heroes again this time... By the way, do you think the one who stands on the side of the victor is a hero, or the one who stands on the side of the majority is a hero?"

Jiang Qing suddenly asked.

This question made no sense, but Ying unexpectedly resonated with Jiang Qing.

"You are being arrogant. Have you already kicked the Church of the Most Eminent Persons out of the winning party?" Ying looked weary. "We may not win, right?"

"If the genuine Thunder God fights against scattered soldiers, there is really nothing we can do if we lose."

Jiang Qing was not panicked.

His mentality is very similar to that of Kujo Takayuki at that time.

Of course I know that you want to tell the general some facts and then change his attitude.

But I don't believe you can do it.

As a result, Ying teamed up with Yae Shinko to wake up Lei Dianying and asked him to modify the Eye Hunting Order and the National Lock Order, and Kujo Takayuki was defeated.

But that's Ying!

Moreover, Lei Movie probably let them win, and with the planning of Yae Shen Zi, Ying won.

The configuration of the scattered soldiers is not much inferior.

He himself is about to become a god, and is definitely much stronger than the three-core Ying at that time. He also has a doctor by his side, and the doctor's style is much stronger than the eight-fold son of God.

With this calculation, it seems that everyone has an even distribution of starting points, but the same start does not mean the same result.

If Lei Dianying did not hold back, let alone the fact that the doctor was just giving help, even if the doctor followed the scattered soldiers, Jiang Qing would not be optimistic.

Demon-level strength is a given, but the gap between demons may be even greater than that between demons and non-demons.

Heulia is also a demon god, but it cannot be said that she has no style in Zhongli's plot. She can only be said to be completely used as evidence to prove that God loves people.

See it.

Even if humans betrayed her, Heulia had no intention of killing the betrayer, but instead took the initiative to die.

As for those unfortunate people who were turned into salt, that happened after Heulia's death.

Even though the demon had no intention of harming people, his body still unleashed a considerable amount of destructive power the moment it died.

But even if I say that, it doesn't change the fact that Heulia is not actually strong.

Food is food.

The premise of loving peace is to have the power to keep others at peace. No matter how much he loves his believers, he cannot change the fact that his territory has been plundered by other demons along the way.

The top three seats are of course demons, but if they are all demons of the level of the Seven Consuls, then everyone should vote as soon as possible.

Ying didn't have any further attitude towards Jiang Qing's answer because she thought so too.

No matter how Sanbing cheats, the fact that the core of his ascension to godhood is the Heart of God that Lei Dianying voluntarily gave up will never change.

If hanging up the Heart of God can defeat Lei Dianying, then since such an unreasonable thing has happened, it is natural that there is no way to deal with it.

······
Hazard arranged a welcome party.

Although Jiang Qing was not optimistic about the sages' plans, these people were not really crazy after all.

The idea of ​​creating gods was certainly not to serve as dogs for them.

Even though Xumi was originally a theocracy, the sages had imprisoned the gods for five hundred years, and they had long since realized that the so-called gods were just another ordinary life form with great power.

There is not much difference between them and mortals.

Faith comes from fear, the lament that one has already determined cannot be caught up with.

When the gods stripped off their powerful outer shell, the sages discovered that they were nothing more than that.

The Little Auspicious Grass King is also a god, but people can also capture him or even imprison him, making him unable to leave the prison device for hundreds of years.

Objectively speaking, half of the credit for the sages' idea of ​​creating gods was due to Nashida.

He gave this group of people so much confidence.

But to be honest, Jiang Qing actually agrees with this idea.

Gods are just another kind of life form with great power, at least that’s the case for the gods that appear now.

They have extraordinary talents in terms of destructive power, but to put it bluntly, this is nothing more than the ability of a high-yield bomb.

If it were just simple destruction, that shouldn't be all God has.

They should have more and more wonderful powers.

The Little Grass King had this tendency, but He failed to develop.

"Can we master the God of Righteousness?"

Hazard asks himself every day.

There are many benefits to cooperating with the Fatui, such as resources, technology, and experimental subjects... Objectively speaking, the other party provided so many things that Azar could not accept it at one point.

You've given us everything you have, why would you cooperate with us?
Can't you just make it yourself?
However, the Doctor gave a chance.

He needs to use the [Void System].

The process of god-making is complicated, and according to Jiang Qing, it is centered around strengthening the three aspects of strength, physique, and intelligence.

Strengthening the Skirmisher so that its body can withstand the power of the Heart of God is something the Fatui can do themselves.

Design external armor, hide the puppet inside the armor, use the armor to share the power of God's Heart, and raise the upper limit of the soldiers' endurance.

This is not difficult for the Faintheads.

But for the subsequent plans, the Heart of God does have considerable power, but ordinary people cannot use it.

In order to bring out the power within the Heart of God, the help of the Academy of Teachings is needed.

In addition, giving the so-called divine wisdom to the scattered soldiers who have not yet become gods also requires the help of the void system.

To be more precise, what the Doctor needs is a void system.

But to the sages of the House of Decrees, isn’t the void theirs?
It is precisely because a plan requires your contribution that sages can feel a little more at ease.

Gaining and losing are generally equal. If you have gained something without losing anything, it is often because someone paid the price on your behalf.

For matters involving gods, if one can obtain the technology to become a god or even the finished product of gods without paying anything, no matter how conceited the sages are, they will sense that something is wrong.

But if the void is needed as support, and the void support is the most core technology, they will suddenly be able to accept it and vigorously promote this matter.

"But that alone is not enough," Hazard recalled his conversations with his colleagues.

Objectively speaking, they don't believe in the fools either.

But when it comes to cooperation, if the other party can offer you the chips that interest you, trust or not becomes irrelevant.

After all, the other party is a bad guy. Are you the white lotus growing by the pond?

Jiang Qing emphasized trust because he only had intelligence in his hands.

But getting this kind of thing is definitely not just about trading. Even if you hang him up and beat him up, he will still give you the information.

Cooperation requires trust because there is no means to protect oneself.

But the teaching house thinks it has.

So even though they knew that the fools had ulterior motives, the wise men still did not say anything.

A nonchalant attitude comes from confidence.

But Hazard felt this was not enough.

Although there are ways to guard against the fools, why can't we continue to have a double layer of insurance?

What's more, insurance came to us on its own initiative.

"That's basically the situation," Azar said, sitting in the first seat. "Little King of Lucky Grass has brought us good news."

His tone was straightforward and without sarcasm, "That greedy lunatic was caught in the trap just like you and me."

It's nothing to admit that you were caught by the fools.

There are too many ambitious people in this world. Being hooked does not mean that you have lost all initiative.

It was as if they deliberately used the weak God of Grass to hook Jiang Qing, and Jiang Qing happily took the bait and went online, but this did not mean that the sages could manipulate Jiang Qing.

He can still change his position and continue to be Xumi's enemy.

"Faced with a weak god, this man who has always sought to ascend to the throne of god in a mortal body really can't hold back." The other sages were not surprised.

According to Void's calculations, the probability of catching Jiang Qing is very high.

He has never concealed his purpose. From Mondstadt to Xumi, despite his various means, the sages are willing to admit that he is a madman with a very determined will.

His goal was like a long sword that slashed straight out, and he was unwilling to retract it until he had drunk blood as he wished.

"This is normal. Who doesn't want to have the power of a devil?" Without sneering, a sage affirmed Jiang Qing's desire.

"Didn't the early sages try these methods during their research?"

Five hundred years ago, the six sages actually just imprisoned people.

Because even if the Great Compassionate Tree King is dead, it is difficult to ensure that he has not left any means to protect the new Grass God he has chosen.

If I imprison you, I will be able to make excuses later.

But as time went by, later sages gradually discovered that, in fact, possibly, perhaps... He really had nothing?
Little Lucky Grass King, probably there really is nothing.

King Mahabodhi left the Void System to the Court of Edicts, but did not leave any help or protection for his chosen successor to maintain his rule.

For anyone with an inquisitive spirit, a weak god is lying in front of you. Do you really have no idea of ​​researching it?
The flesh and blood of the Son, even those who believe in Him crave these things.

What's more, the sages had no respect for the little auspicious grass king.

The result is the attitude of today's sages, who cannot find any chance or possibility of becoming gods from the gods.

That's why Hazard puts his hopes on the stragglers.

It is impossible for a mortal to become a god. He accepted this fact and also accepted Jiang Qing's arrogant ideas.

Not only Azar, but the entire group of six sages could understand Jiang Qing's arrogance.

Who doesn’t want god-like power and life?

When one is young and successful, or even unsuccessful, who would easily think that he is just one of the ordinary people?

"Yes, it's just that there is an ignorant person who wants to open this road." Azar said calmly, "But fortunately, the greed of this ignorant person is what we need."

"If the Fatui can't be trusted, and he can't be trusted either, we can try to pit the two against each other."

"This is risky," the sage of the Life Theory School warned, "If the two of them unite, we may really be left with nothing."

"Of course, of course, but any action is risky," Azar nodded repeatedly, "Everyone, the glory of the Sages and the House of the Decrees is already in jeopardy."

He doesn't care about the Fatui and Jiang Qing.

He was confident he could handle both.

"The power of the Little Auspicious Grass King is still growing. No matter how you understand our actions, in the eyes of the gods, this is undoubtedly a blasphemy."

"If he grows to the level of the Great Compassionate Tree King, the era of Xumi City will change."

To put it simply, the sage's system might be destroyed by Nashida.

If things go wrong, Xumi City and the so-called scholars may become history.

Let's ask ourselves what the sages of all ages have done. If Nashida had the power, she would be right to treat the sages in any way she wanted.

Of course, venting anger on others and wanting to kill some people for no reason to liven up the atmosphere are all things that can be expected in the future.

The six sages fell silent.

No one expects God to be reasonable.

When someone treats God harshly and betrays God's trust, God wants to vent his anger on humanity as a whole, take revenge on everyone, and vent his anger and dissatisfaction. This is God's freedom.

Although the mainland tends to sing praises to gods, as if gods are naturally great beings who love humans.

But the wise men do not think so.

They have seen weak gods and served powerful gods.

They collect and control most of the information in the world.

The sum of information will not lie.

Gods are born superior to mortals and are not equal to humans.

According to the records of the Council of the Church, given the power level of the gods, when the gods are angry, the only thing humans can do is to kneel on the ground, wait until the gods are satisfied with the killing, and then offer their humble faith and longings again in exchange for the gods' mercy and kindness.

The history of Heguan verifies this.

The people were afraid, so they offered their faith to the Thunderbird.

They did not know what the “god” liked, but when they saw the god in contact with a child, they offered the child’s life as a blood sacrifice.

Blood sacrifice is the most ancient and foolish act of faith. They didn't know what would satisfy God, but they only had this child, so they made this choice.

The Thunderbird, who loved children's singing, found the golden cup filled with blood and immediately understood what these foolish people had done.

Because of the death of his favorite child, Thunderbird threw his anger onto the entire earth, and the child's tribe was completely wiped out.

Objectively speaking, the act of blood sacrifice is foolish, but the essence of blood sacrifice is based on faith.

But obviously, Thunderbird doesn't care about people's beliefs, He only cares about what He likes.

After the life on Heguan became history, He went to Qinglai Island and continued to vent his anger.

Then He was nailed to death on Qinglai Island by the God of Thunder.

Even so, his death caused thunder and lightning to spread across Qinglai Island, and ordinary people had to leave their homes and could no longer survive in their homeland.

Thunderbird doesn't care about mortals' beliefs, He only cares about what He likes.

So is He a God?
Count, of course.

For human beings, not only the seven rulers are considered gods.

Any being that can destroy their fate without reason is a god.

Yes.

You can always look forward to God's lover.

But if one day, He becomes angry and wants to spread His wrath all over the world, are you prepared to accept the inevitable death?
The Ministry of Religion does not know the truth about Heguan, but history clearly records everything that was buried by the so-called "gods".

In the history of Teyvat, the thunderbird of Heguan is not the only evidence that gods can be willful.

Even more recently, in Kanreya five hundred years ago, the sages did not know what sins they had committed, but everyone knew that Kanreya was destroyed.

In the entire country, only a few people survived.

Most of the gods of Teyvat are reasonable, but the sages do not expect them to always be reasonable.

Even if it is reasonable, their act of imprisoning the gods was definitely wrong.

The sages of previous generations were not afraid of such mistakes, but the subsequent group of six sages would only become more and more panicked. Once the gods regained their power, how would they deal with it?

They were worried about themselves, and also worried that Nashida would extend her hatred to the entire Xumi.

The people of Heguan just killed a child, and then Thunderbird killed all the people of Heguan, and the anger even extended to Qinglai Island.

They imprison, study, and replace the gods... Who dares to say that the wrath of the gods will not spread across the entire Sumeru?

"The moment of deciding fate is so silent," Azar stood up and looked around at the five sages who were traveling with him. "I know that some of you are dissatisfied with the decision of the sage group. I believe you hope to release and assist the little auspicious grass king to ascend to the throne and become the new god of wisdom."

"I believe that in the past five hundred years, countless sages have had the same idea as you."

Of course, there is the idea of ​​saving God.

Thanks to the grace of the Great Compassionate Tree King, any person with a conscience would want to save His successor.

"But you didn't do it after all," Hazard said calmly. "No matter what you thought, you didn't do it. You just voted against it, but you didn't take any concrete action."

Not only did they not do it, they didn't even try to do it.

"In this case, I don't recommend that you have too much expectation of God's tolerance and magnanimity."

"If we put the kindness and hatred towards the gods on a scale, then the situation of the entire Xumi is that we have never done any favors to the Little Auspicious Grass King, and of course He has not given us any favors either."

"And we have offended the Little Auspicious Grass King."

“He has no reason to forgive us.”

The sages fell silent.

Hazard has already started to show his cards.

Continuing to keep the Little Auspicious Grass King is not a good thing for the Ministry of Education.

They have offended the God of Grass to death.

"I understand what you mean." A certain sage frowned, "Five hundred years of imprisonment, the research of successive sages, and the god-making project we proposed to replace the gods, all of these are the hatred between us and the God of Grass."

Being able to have a grudge against God is actually something to be proud of.

"It's not us, not just the sages." Azar amended his statement, "Most of the scholars in the House of the Lords are involved in the God-building Project. They just don't know the specific situation, but what they are doing is part of the God-building Project."

"And with your power as a radiation, most of the people in Xumi City are serving our plan."

In other words, it was not the six sages who wanted to replace the gods, but most of the people in Xumi City.

Of course, this is a rough calculation method.

but·······

"I don't think that a god who holds power and authority would spend the time and energy to discern the sins of every person."

"For the gods, tearing down Mount Xumi and rebuilding it might be more in line with their majesty."

Yes, of course the gods should do that.

His hatred and shame should be borne by the entire Xumi.

Will He identify one by one what each person has done and how much impact they have had, and then only kill the main culprit, simply punish the accomplices, and finally allow most scholars to resume normal research, not hold the Xumi people accountable, and just let the whole thing go?

Yes, Nashida really can.

His precise killing and incomprehensible kindness were so profound that even Jiang Qing, who had watched the plot, couldn't understand it.

And the wise who do not know this will only refer to the worst case scenario.

The entire Xumi will be held responsible for the choice made by the first six sages, and there may no longer be a place called Xumi City in the future.
