Original God, but the real world

Chapter 215 Chapter 214 - He hesitates to speak
Every plan has a purpose that must be achieved.

Tartaglia only wanted to protect the safe completion of the god-making project, because at this stage, even though the God of Wisdom did not use grass elemental power, the sages of Xumi also recognized that the God of Wisdom was the god of Xumi.

On this basis, it is reasonable for the God of Wisdom to unify his own country over all of Xumi's internal affairs.

As for what happened later, Tartaglia didn't think about it.

After becoming a god, the scattered soldiers are, at least, some of the strongest people in the world.

It is impossible to say that Ying and Jiang Qing can still defeat the scattered soldiers, and then forcibly restore order and let Xumi return to the rule of the God of Grass?

That doesn't make sense.

Tartaglia knew that Ying's strength was rising to an unreasonable level, but if she could pin a demon to the ground and beat him in Xumi, then there were still Fontaine, Natta and Zhidong behind her.

When she reaches the last country, think about it, is the Ice Queen really qualified to be her opponent?
No matter how big a gap there is between ordinary demons and the seven rulers of the mortal world, it will be useless according to Ying's growth curve.

So she can't win.

Even if you win, you have to rely on external forces to barely win.

If it were easy, the fools behind could lie down.

Tartaglia still believed in logic, or rather, as an executive of the Fatui, he just wanted to believe this answer.

Since the future is bright, Tartaglia is naturally more concerned about the early stages of the plan.

There are two troubles to be solved in the early stage: Ying, who plans to destroy the plans of the Fatui, and Nashida, who may interfere with the rule of the God of Wisdom.

The former is unreasonable, while the latter has a more suitable name than the scattered soldiers. Although His strength is slightly weaker, the reputation of righteousness must be in his own hands.

What Tartaglia wants to do is to solve these two troubles.

Ying is not easy to kill, and Jiang Qing is also a bit tricky.

The doctor has been staying in Jingshan Palace for so long. If he doesn't kill Jiang Qing, Tartaglia naturally won't think that this lunatic is kind-hearted or doesn't have time.

If the Doctor doesn't do something that would benefit him, it means the cost is too high, and he must pay the price himself, and the fools cannot bear it on his behalf.

He is a man who spares no expense, as long as the price is not paid directly by him.

What Tartaglia wanted was to kick these two people out of Xumi City. What he really wanted to do was something else, which was to completely "optimize" Nashida.

This move requires caution, and you cannot carve the map on the dagger - the dagger will be revealed too quickly.

"You have a point, Mr. Tartaglia."

Azar nodded repeatedly, agreeing with one of Tartaglia's suggestions.

If possible, he really wanted to kick Tartaglia out of Jingshan Palace.

But at present, he has regarded the Fatui as his absolute enemies, and he has no way of giving up on Tartaglia, the only one with whom he can communicate normally.

When it comes to protecting Xumi, Azar completely trusts Nashida.

Put anyone in his situation and he would choose to believe Narcida.

A god who has been imprisoned for five hundred years still diligently helps you try to seize control of the scattered soldiers, tells you about the problem of Xumi's geomancy, and puts Xumi first.

Of course, because of the five hundred years of imprisonment, you knew that you would never let Him leave, let alone let Him ascend to the throne of God...but how could you not trust Him?
The situation is so bad that there is a god behind every person with ulterior motives.

Only the House of the Church is at the center of the storm, but it has no bargaining chips.

Everyone knows their trump cards: the unfinished gods in the god-making project, the imprisoned young gods... Who can be threatened by such cards?
In this grand gambling game, everyone has hidden their cards, ready to fight for the fruits of victory at the last moment.

Only the host house, the Imperial Academy, seemed to have the home advantage, but the cards in their hands could not be used to win the game.

The trump cards are either provided by others or are completely unusable and completely known to everyone.

Azar could have remained indifferent, but after learning that the Doctor's technology came from Kanreya five hundred years ago, and that he himself might be stronger than the deified Sniper, he completely gave up the idea of ​​eliminating Nashida.

If you want to cross a river and then destroy the bridge, you must first cross the river before considering destroying the bridge.

If there is a 100% chance of obtaining the God of Righteousness, Nashida must indeed be considered for elimination.

Hatred has already planted the nail. Unless you don't care about anyone among the nine clans, no one would want to use the lives of all their relatives and friends to challenge whether the gods are magnanimous.

But the current situation does not allow him to act in advance. He must wait until the dust settles before he can consider the necessity of demolishing the bridge.

Even though Nashida might become the sword of Damocles hanging over his head if she were alive, this sword was also Xumi's last line of defense.

Is family selfishness more important, or taking the risk and leaving Xumi one last chance to turn the tables?

Hazard has his own ideas.

The situation is always changing, and today's enemy may not be tomorrow's enemy.

Although the hatred between both sides still exists, there is always something that is higher than the hatred and further affects your judgment.

I have to fool this silly boy first.

That's what Hazard thought.

I have to fool this stupid scholar first.

That's what Tartaglia thought.

From their perspective, all of their ideas are reasonable.

Azar has already raised the threat level of the Fatui, and can even cooperate further with Jiang Qing.

Because Jiang Qing's threat is still in the distant future, and the Doctor is already standing in Jingshan Palace.

The threat from the three gods may be the Frost Sky Nail that has locked onto Mount Sumeru in the sky, but the Doctor’s is the dagger that has already pierced into the heart.

Of course, the dagger is not as dangerous as the Frost Nail that can easily destroy a country, but a dagger that has already pierced your heart can kill you faster than the Frost Nail that has not yet fallen.

He fears the Fatui, so he wants to get news from Tartaglia.

Tartaglia's idea came from the operation of the Six Sages to imprison the gods.

The first generation of sages performed this operation, and the six sages who followed chose to follow their actions for the sake of their own power and status.

In the end, what was left for the future Xumi was a weak and powerless god.

In the environment of Teyvat, every country has gods, and some countries even have military forces that are no less powerful than those of gods.

Only Sumeru.

The followers of the Great Mercy Tree King are a group of forest mushrooms that are unable to take care of themselves, and the successor of the Great Mercy Tree King is a small Mercy sapling that is imprisoned and unable to escape.

Everyone has their own selfish desires, and there is nothing wrong with that.

The plans of the Fatui are spread across the Seven Kingdoms, and Tartaglia has seen many people willing to sell out innocent people, or even the interests of the country, for their own personal gain.

Kujo Takayuki is such a person.

He was a man of high rank and noble character, from a prominent family, and had handled government affairs for many years. He might not be able to fully judge whether a matter was good or bad at the time, but to say that he had no idea at all would be underestimating his family education environment.

What's more, the Eye Hunting Order and the Closing the Country Order were not something that happened overnight. If he didn't understand it at the time and still didn't understand it after pushing it forward, it would be like he was being treated as a fool.

He knew it better than anyone, he just didn't care.

This kind of person is definitely not the first one that the Fatui have found. It can be expected that the Fatui will be able to find more such partners in the future.

But for people like the Six Sages of the Ordinance, who were able to live in a world with gods and be content with the godless environment in their own country, Tartaglia had to say that this was the only time in his life that he had ever seen such a thing.

It would be fine if ordinary people were powerless, but the six sages who hold high positions and great power can actually face the godlessness in their country so calmly.

That is to say, desert mercenaries like the Thirty-Man Group had already defected to the Six Sages. Otherwise, if the desert people united, they would have been fully capable of counterattacking the House of the Decrees.

The [Thirty-Man Group] not only divided the power of the desert, but also gave the desert people a second way - to serve as dogs for the Order.

They have taken root in the desert, constantly drawing power from the desert every year, and in turn suppressing the Gilded Brigade that has emerged in the desert.

Use the power of the desert to fight the desert, and the House of the Order can watch from a distance, still maintaining its high status in the absence of gods.

[The Thirty-Man Group] all thought that the Great Compassion Tree King had left some means for the Council of Edicts. They certainly wanted more, but they did not have the mentality to actively resist.

Later, when Dishia and Seno and his group were planning a resistance, with the Thirty-Man Group standing idly by, the Gilded Brigade led by Dishia actually single-handedly defeated the defense system of the House of Lords, and even captured the Great Sage.

The means are only auxiliary.

Elhaisen's method was nothing more than transferring the guards from Jingshan Palace.

Afterwards, these guards were led into an ambush in the Grand Bazaar. If their methods had reached this point, the ambush should not have been a simple head-on fight as shown in the plot. They should have also set up mechanisms or bombs to quickly eliminate the enemy.

But frankly speaking, the tactics used by Dixia and the others are even more sophisticated than those used by the [Thirty-Man Group] stationed in Xumi City.

Because compared to these outsiders, the [Group of Thirty] can be considered as internal staff of the Sumeru Teachings Institute.

If it really doesn't work, you can try to attack by force.

Judging from the performance of the Council of Ministers, a violent attack may not necessarily be a way to solve the problem.

The Gilded Brigade led by Dishia and Rahman was only one of the troops in the desert, but they were able to defeat the defenses of the Order House. If the Thirty-Man Group was determined, they actually had the ability to overthrow the Order House.

Any Gilded Brigade is just trying to make a living, except for the Thirty-Man Brigade that is directly under the rule of the Decree Council.

They draw nourishment from both the desert and the rainforest, paying their loyalty and being accountable to the wise.

However, when their loyalty was most needed, they chose to stand idly by, which directly led to the collapse of Hazard's plan.

They are responsible for border defense and city defense, and even the soldiers stationed in Jingshan Palace have their manpower.

This is definitely not the power given to them by Azar, but the trust that the Six Sages of Xumi have continuously increased over the past five hundred years.

Unfortunately, they gave power but did not accept the other party obtaining a status that matched the power.

The [Group of Thirty] has such a broad scope of responsibility and heavy authority, but its leader cannot be one of the Six Sages.

But at this time, the "Group of Thirty" had already become a huge interest group. If their leader could not gain further power, the people standing under him would naturally be unable to move forward.

Regardless of whether the leader of the Thirty is loyal to the Decree or not, he must move forward.

What's more, being forced to wear the yellow robe might also be what he wanted.

These people just want to make progress too much. The leader of the thirty-member group also wants to make progress and make more contributions to Xumi.

But if the sage does not allow them to make progress, then Hazard and others will be defeated.

So in the end, the group of thirty people chose to stand by and watch.

The birth of the [Group of Thirty] has its special historical background. The six sages used this method to suppress the desert and also left useful tools for their successors.

The only thing they could not have imagined was that their descendants a hundred years later never thought of draining the blood of the "Group of Thirty" and using it to cultivate their own confidants.

The six sages who came later treated the group of thirty people as their own confidants.

If Jiang Qing were to describe such an action, it should be to train one's own people directly in the desert, and then squeeze the blood of the desert by squeezing the [Group of Thirty].

Because the [Group of Thirty] were also desert people at the beginning, they were not only able to gain the natural trust of the desert people, but also knew better how to exploit their own people.

This method is not uncommon. After the Age of Discovery began, it was once a common method used by various maritime powers.

But judging from the subsequent reaction of the "Thirty-Man Group", it was obvious that the Ministry of Education had gone too far.

The [Thirty-Man Group] did share the future of the desert, but the expenditure of the Order Institute did not receive a return. They only cultivated a father force inside Xumi City that had military power but was not completely under their control.

If Dixia can lead a gilded brigade and have a chance to break through the defense of the Order of the Church, it is hard to say that the [Thirty-Man Group], which has a longer development time, more abundant resources, and a better understanding of Xumi City and the Order of the Church, cannot do it.

Tartaglia is insensitive to complicated things, but when it comes to the use of force, including military force, his sense of smell is extremely sharp.

The Xumi's House of Teachings has no concrete and reliable power.

The Thirty-Man Group is in charge of border and city defense, but the Thirty-Man Group has its own interests.

If the Fatui can impress the Six Sages, they can naturally impress these mercenaries who have power but no status.

There are no reliable and capable troops and loyal generals below, and there are no powerful and brave gods above, yet such a House of the Church dares to cooperate with the Fatui.

This is something that Tartaglia cannot understand.

He doesn't understand, but that doesn't stop him from treating Hazard as the best partner.

"Do you also think this is a necessary plan?" Tartaglia smiled friendly, "In fact, we have studied the history of Xumi before."

Studying history is better than studying how to blow up Xumi City...

"In the history of Xumi, we have found three gods."

"The Flower God, the Great Kindness Tree King, and the Red King..."

"But the records about the Red King stopped at one thousand years ago."

Hazard listened carefully again, without any ripples in his heart.

As soon as Tartaglia started talking about history, especially when he mentioned the Red King, he knew what the other party was thinking.

This executive officer of the Fatui has recently hinted in various ways, both overtly and covertly, to kick Jiang Qing out of Xumi City as soon as possible.

Whether it's a desert or somewhere else, can you please throw him somewhere else as soon as possible?
But he agreed to let Jiang Qing meet Nashida in order to use this outsider to create a temporary stalemate with the Fatui... Although for some reason, the doctor has no plans to take action, but this person will definitely be useful.

If he is kicked out of Xumi City like this, what will Azar use to fight against the Fatui with ulterior motives?

Tartaglia spoke with great emotion and it was obvious that he had practiced the speech.

Azar nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, yes, yes." When asked, he was moved and said that the Red King was dead. If you ask me to find someone to do the archaeological work, I really can't do it, my friend.

Everything you say is right, but everything you ask is useless.

The main focus is on sincere companionship.

But Tartaglia had no idea what to do.

The identity of a great sage is equivalent to that of a clown in Winter Solstice.

Even though the Joker could kill Azar at will, Tartaglia still had to respect the other party's status in the land of Xumi.

The great sage is accompanying you personally, and if you say anything else it would seem that you are very rude and not sensible at all.

One focuses on sincerity, the other focuses on companionship.

After a brief and sincere interaction, Tartaglia already understood that Azar was determined by Jiang Qing's value and wanted to keep him in Xumi City to guard against the Fatui.

Although this kind of precaution is a little unusual, after all, the cooperation between Hazard and the Fatui was still in the honeymoon period.

But considering that the second step of the deification project is about to be fully promoted, the scattered soldiers after this step can already drive the body and the heart of God. Although they do not have the so-called wisdom of God, they also have the real power of God.

The infusion of divine knowledge has always been something the sages have insisted on.

They believe that this thing, which is related to the World Tree but drives scholars crazy if they delve into it, is the knowledge of the gods - because they cannot understand it.

Not to mention the arrogance that is unique to top scholars, the skirmishers at this time are actually already in a complete state. Azar will do more to attract the Fatui, which is understandable to Tartaglia after a change of mind.

This matter was reasonable and he didn't think about it any further.

But if this is the case, it would be even more absurd to want to kick Jiang Qing out.

Jiang Qing is of special value to the House of the Fatui, the Fatui need to be guarded, and Jiang Qing happens to be the player chosen by Azar to guard them - what Tartaglia cannot understand is that although he is afraid of Jiang Qing and Ying, he is very clear that his fear comes from the unknown nature of these two people.

But if it comes to real fighting, he doesn't believe that he will lose this time... Logically speaking, he shouldn't lose.

This idea came from his repeated failures, but why did Hazard believe that Jiang Qing could defend against the Fatui?

There is a price to pay.

For Hazard to do something that betrays his own interests, he will have to pay a greater price that he believes can make up for the loss.

But what interests could be more important than seizing the dominance of the God of Righteousness at this moment?
Tartaglia fell into deep thought.

"Wait a moment, Mr. Tartaglia."

Hazard raised his eyebrows, "We have a mutual friend coming."

Friends? Mutual friends of yours and mine?
For a moment, Tartaglia really couldn't remember it.

What common friends could he and Azar have? They didn't even have the same interests and hobbies. Azar wasn't a special talent like Zhongli who had mastered special knowledge and that Tartaglia deliberately catered to him. It couldn't be said that the money was wasted. At least it was worthwhile to spend money on a god.

Whenever he thought of this, Tadalia felt a little toothache.

He became friends with Zhongli in the beginning because of the other person's profound knowledge.

It's not just the Council of the Lords who knows that knowledge has a price. Executives like Tartaglia know the price of knowledge even better.

For someone like Zhongli who could easily reference countless records in ancient books, he certainly didn't mind spending money to make friends with him.

The result was indeed rewarded. He learned about the Hundred Taboos Talisman and the seal of Osel from Zhongli. Objectively speaking, Zhongli contributed at least half of his plan.

Some things are not difficult to do, but just knowing that you are going to do it requires a little chance and coincidence.

If Zhongli didn't remind him, he would have found a god there who was sealed but was able to crawl out and be alive and well.

The plan went smoothly, but no one told him that the military strategist who planned the attack on Liyue Harbor was Liyue's Salt God.

It’s boring!
It’s better to forget about the god Zhongli. Talking too much about him will only bring tears.

Besides Zhongli, there are other friends who left a deep impression on me and have a relationship with Azar...

"Could it be Jiang Qing?"

Tartaglia couldn't help but sit up straight.

He subconsciously looked around, looking for the most suitable position to strike a fatal blow to the visitor at the gate.

I didn't even go looking for you and was thinking about avoiding you, but you came to me on your own initiative, right?

Give me Sine!

"You and Mr. Jiang Qing are indeed old friends."

Hazard smiled gently, as if praising the friendship between the two.

"Oh, yes, yes, he and I are old friends. Sometimes I can't help it and always want to say a few warm words to him from the bottom of my heart." Tartaglia agreed with a smile, his eyes still wandering.

Speak from the heart and with warm heart.

Yes, yes, yes, he and I are old friends like this.

"In fact, I think so too. After all, without the help of my old friend, many plans would not have gone so smoothly," Jiang Qing said with a hint of sarcasm. "Fortunately, I also brought a lot of rewards to my old friend, so things didn't get too bad."

Tartaglia stood up suddenly, his expression changing slightly.

Jiang Qing was already standing behind him, and he had no idea.

Naturally, his current hard power is higher than that of Tartaglia. Even though Tartaglia is brave and good at fighting, he has never thought of killing anyone.

It is normal for Tartaglia to be unable to react to an opponent who has no killing intention but is strong enough.

"I am somewhat curious about what you traded for the Heart of God."

Tartaglia sighed.

This guy is unreasonable. He is as unreasonable as Ying.

Tartaglia is very aware of his own talents and martial arts. Objectively speaking, the limit of human beings is basically his level.

One step further, there is the legend of Vanessa ascending to the Sky Island.

The gap between him and people like the scattered soldiers and ladies is almost entirely caused by time.

The accumulation of elemental power, the honing of skills... these people are quite rare among their contemporaries. In terms of talent, they are not necessarily worse than him, and for no reason they live hundreds of years longer than him.

Losing to these people would only mean being ranked last among the Fatui. Tartaglia only had the passion for challenge, but he didn't think he was really worse than these people.

To put it bluntly, since everyone is competing together under the same conditions at the same time, it is hard to say who will be in the lead today.

This is not arrogance, but the most accurate understanding of talent as an "ordinary" executive.

But Jiang Qing and Ying broke this perception.

It’s okay for Ying, everyone knows now that this person is also special and cannot be treated as an ordinary person.

After all, ordinary people are not travelers in the starry sea, and it is even more impossible for them to gain an elemental power by touching the Seven Days Statue.

But Jiang Qing, but Jiang Qing!

Aren't you an ordinary person? Why is your strength increasing so fast?
Dada Duck can't understand.

"Are you so excited to see an old friend?" Jiang Qing looked at the bewildered Tartaglia and couldn't help but smile and teased, "It's too early to get excited. I have good news for you."

He can even cooperate with the Fatui? This person is really... profit-driven.

Azar didn't know for a moment whether he should be more wary of the Fatui or Jiang Qing if Jiang Qing cooperated with the Fatui.

But this is just a possible threat after all. We can't just give up on Jiang Qing just because of the existence of this threat.

You can't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

The Council of Eminence cannot sentence Elhaisen and Senor to death just because they may abandon the Council of Eminence.

These people are valuable and worth fighting for.

"Two old friends are getting together. I just happen to have something else to do, so I won't bother you guys."

Hazard finally got away, leaving only Jiang Qing and Tartaglia in the conference room.

"What can we talk about?" Tartaglia endured it again and again, "Hazard should still be monitoring it."

He was not afraid of Hazard hearing him.

Hazard knows, but he will pretend he didn't hear it.

"I originally wanted to look for Hazard, but I didn't expect to see you here."

Jiang Qing said slowly, "I have good news for you."

Fine.

Between the Fatui and the Six Sages, whoever has the best relationship with you, then we'll talk to them.

Anyway, it is not necessary for Hazard to come and hear this shocking news.

"I don't want to hear it." Tartaglia refused.

"It's a very important secret. Listen to it." Jiang Qing was not in a hurry and persuaded him cooperatively. "It's a secret that is as precious as the Heart of God, or even more precious."

There are some unusual movements in Tartaglia.

It seems that Jiang Qing has never lied on this topic. We can only say that he is very good at misleading, but we cannot say that he did not tell the truth.

After a moment, Tartaglia regretted it.

"you······"

Tartaglia stopped at the brink of death and hesitated to speak.
