People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 218 The significance of gathering the power of the seven elements

Bao Shang Street, Pushpa Cafe.

Because of the massive damage to the buildings in Xumi City,
The original popular Puspa Café also gained a bit of lush vitality during the subsequent reconstruction work with the help of the power of God.

In the evening, after the staff of the Ministry of Education and Training had gone off work,

With its impeccable desserts, drinks and ambience, Café Puspa is the best place to relieve your fatigue.

At this moment, at the brown wooden square table at the edge of the hall,

There were two special guests sitting there who had come here to chat after finishing their urgent work.

——It was Lin Feng and Nashida who separated from Zhongli Wendy after the meeting.

As early as the conversation, Lin Feng noticed that she was a little confused about the current situation because she lacked some key information.

Even under such circumstances, Little Grass God still completed this very important meeting.

But Lin Feng also felt that he needed to explain to her in detail what had happened recently, in addition to the previous brief messages.

After thinking for a while,
He first placed Nashida's favorite desserts and food on the table with ease.

Then after talking about some daily topics,

Only then, under Nashida's gaze, did he begin his explanation:
".I know you must have some questions about the current situation.

But the current situation where the gods of the three kingdoms have gathered together is not entirely caused by me alone.
——It should be said that the demands of the gods and the country itself are the most critical factors. "

Noticing the thoughtful expression on the little grass god's face, Lin Feng smiled and then said:
"If you only look at the appearance,
You might think that I was able to borrow the Heart of God in a short period of time and get the gods of the other two countries to help.
It’s because I have strong communication skills and have put a lot of effort into this matter.”

"——But in fact, it should be said that the two of them wanted to come here, which accounted for a large proportion."

"After all, the gods think from the perspective of the country.

Even though I only rely on my personal goodwill, I am confident that I can persuade them to come and help with some small things.
But the real reason why the two leaders were willing to take huge risks to come here is because I share the same stance as them.

On the premise that there is already a sufficient foundation of trust, a special relationship similar to a 'community of shared destiny' has been reached."

I understand that because Nashida is the second generation of the ruling family, she lacks the foresight about the direction of this continent like the old man and Wendy.

It is difficult to understand what he meant without knowing the hidden crisis in the world.
So after using the special features of his own abilities to create a space that was almost completely shielded from outside influences, he also explained as detailed as possible:
"Although I have often passed on some key information to you in various ways before,
But that kind of transmission method has many limitations after all, and is not conducive to restoring the full picture of the incident."

"Besides, I wasn't sure my guess was correct before, as it lacked the support of many conditions."

Recalling his motivation for collecting authority and the source of his sense of crisis, Lin Feng paused and said:
"——But now, after receiving the information provided by these two ancient rulers,

I am completely convinced that some terrible future will inevitably befall this continent in the near future, like a stone ball rolling down a mountain."

"——It was probably a catastrophe that was much more brutal than the Kanreya War five hundred years ago."

"."

Because of his lack of experience and inability to connect to the World Tree,

In her previous conversation with Lin Feng, Nashida did not show any concern about the future outcome of this continent.

Although I wanted to clear the forbidden knowledge, the pollution was only a small remnant of the disaster of Kanria.

It is completely incomparable to the catastrophe that Lin Feng said might be much stronger than the Kanriya disaster.

After hearing this statement suddenly,

Nashida, who had been quite relaxed because Xumi was developing better and better, suddenly became nervous again.

".Will there really be a more terrible doomsday coming to this land than the disaster that caused the change of many gods five hundred years ago?"

".Is this the information that the two ancient rulers shared with you?"

The little grass god asked.

"Basically."

Lin Feng nodded in reply.

"——For some reason, I was not optimistic about the direction of this world from the beginning.

The information shared by the God of Wind and the God of Rock, my previous attempts to test the rules, and the actions they took also support my point of view."

"——To put it simply, the protector of this world, the 'Heavenly Principle' you know, is now in a very dangerous state."

"And every crack in the world that I discovered before, without exception, spreads the pollution of the abyss inward."

"That is to say."

Narcida realized something.

"——Yes, the outer area of ​​Teyvat is now most likely completely surrounded by the abyss."

"And the 'shell' that protects this world may not last much longer."

Recalling the "Sky Island" where the little yellow-haired boy will eventually go in the game, and the Queen of Winter's meaningless plan to collect the Heart of God,

Although Zhongli and Venti were both subject to certain restrictions and could not tell all the information they knew,

But Lin Feng had already learned from various indirect inquiries and their attitude towards him as a 'savior'.
I am completely certain that in this world, there is a high probability that a war reaching the "Throne" level will occur.

——Only when such a huge crisis is about to come will two gods who have existed for thousands of years make such a radical choice and place such a heavy bet on him.
And no matter the cost, find ways to help him gain more power.

——Wendy and the old man, in the plot, would rather lose the power brought by the Heart of God and choose to give it to the Queen of Winter.

They even turned a blind eye to many of the Fatui's actions.

If there weren't some kind of fatal crisis, how could such a thing that could greatly increase the power of the gods be given out just like that?

Moreover, an outsider like him who is strange but has great growth potential would probably not be so popular in the general world.

Although Wendy and Zhongli can be considered very friendly, even for the sake of the people of their country, they will never try their best to piece together the power of several ancient dragons into one external being under peacetime circumstances.

——In terms of the results, this behavior is not much different from the plan of the great sage and his group of self-important people.

They are even more open-minded. From the beginning, they don't care whether Lin Feng's irresistible power will become the second "heavenly justice" on their heads.

No matter how you think about it, the core reason why Venti and Zhongli are willing to let him become stronger can only be that they need his extraordinary power to break the doomed deadlock one day in the future.

——It is much better to have a boss above you than to have no head at all.

While Lin Feng was summarizing his previous incredibly smooth power collection activities, he was also explaining the relevant details to Nashida in front of him.

Although the Little Grass God found it a little difficult to accept at first, considering the almost full support from the God of Wind and the God of Rock, he had to admit the existence of some kind of huge crisis.

——The behavior of these two ancient rulers is like that of a group of beasts in crisis.

Only by allowing an exceptionally strong individual to appear in the population at all costs can the race maintain its survival when facing natural enemies.

".So, you are actually planning to try to recreate the absolute elemental power of the ancient dragon king in today's era?"

".And you even want to gather back the authority of all elements?"

After hearing Lin Feng's plan, Nashida suddenly realized that she had actually underestimated the uniqueness of the young man in front of her.

——Not to mention that such a thing is as outrageous as a fairy tale to ordinary gods,
Even if the other party only gains the power of any one element based on the current strength,
In fact, it is enough to create a huge gap with other existences on this continent.

……

".But even the Kanreya War five hundred years ago was still far from the power of the Seven Elements, right?"

According to the other party's description of the power of the elements,
Nashida believed that even if Lin Feng only had the power of an ancient dragon, he could still play a key role in the Kanreya War.
If all seven were really collected, the amount of power that would overflow would be too exaggerated.

".It's not because of pure destructive power. I don't lack that kind of thing."

Thinking of Xiaobai's pure destruction that completely transcends the laws of the world,
Lin Feng didn’t think that if the goal was simply to destroy the enemy, he would need to make any extra efforts - throwing Xiaobai would solve everything anyway.

The reason why he longed for elemental power was actually because of Villette's performance in the plot - absolute control over a certain force in the world, the power of "creation" that transcends destruction.

".You should know that this world exists based on the 'Law of Seven', right?"

Lin Feng asked.

"Although I don't quite understand the specific details, from various studies and records, the seven elements are indeed the foundation of this world."

Nashida nodded and replied.

Seeing this, Lin Feng paused for a moment, recalling the faint but vague resonance between his two powers, and began to explain:

"The God of Rock and the God of Wind both have close friends in the Dragon Clan, and according to them, the 'Seven Laws' representing pure elements were once the basic rules for the operation of this world.

It can be said that apart from outsiders, all life and objects are inseparable from the collision and integration of elements. "

"If you master a complete elemental law, it is like mastering one seventh of the world.

He has a strong ability to perceive and control everything within his domain."

"——If the seven laws were combined into one, it would be equivalent to having a strong control over the entire world, and being able to discover all existences that are not contained in the laws."

".An existence that is not contained within the laws? Does it mean an 'outsider' like the abyss?"

Narcida realized something.

"Exactly."

Lin Feng responded.

"——From what we can see so far, all disasters in the world are basically caused by these external forces."

"And the gods use their authority to strengthen the local rules, which can temporarily drive away these invaders who are not tolerated by the rules."

"——What if it is an elemental power that is more powerful than ordinary power? Can it completely eliminate all outsiders and permanently strengthen the entire world?"

"I think it's possible."

After a slight pause, Lin Feng looked at Nashida and said:
"The complete power of the seven elements is by no means limited to destruction.
On the contrary, they can repair and even reconstruct a damaged world, and are a force of 'creation' rather than 'destruction'. "

"——This world is already riddled with holes. If there is no way to repair it thoroughly, it will eventually be destroyed.
Even if I have the ability to enter the abyss and survive for a long time,

But you and many of my friends, and even the people of Xumi, cannot possess such power."

"It has never been difficult for me to eliminate all the saboteurs."

"But if the world itself is destroyed, what's the point of killing so many invaders?"

"——Therefore, by gathering all the complete laws, we can gain the power to repair and even reconstruct the world.
Using this kind of 'creative' power to protect everything I care about is the real purpose of my gathering authority."

"."

Because Nashida had just been released and her power had not yet grown, even if she knew too much, it would only add to her troubles.

Even though Lin Feng had anticipated the disastrous future of this continent, he had never seriously discussed his detailed plans with her.

And when Zhongli and Venti had chosen to stand on the same side with him and tried to gain power over the elements, Lin Feng thought that he could also reveal a little bit of information to Nashida.

Moreover, although it sounds difficult to obtain the power of the seven ancient dragons, with the help of the information from the previous life,
He believed that he would not spend hundreds or thousands of years, which was in line with the gods' understanding.

Wendy and Zhongli both knew what kind of power the ancient dragon authority had.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked a fight with Apep to come to Xumi for help before he went to treat Ruota.

But Nashida, as a cub among the gods,
If I don't explain it clearly to her, she really might not understand what they are busy with.

In order to prevent Nashida from being confused when she goes to other countries in the future,
Lin Feng also took the opportunity of this group going to find Apep to give a thorough "basic knowledge" education to the little guy in front of him who was unable to connect to the World Tree normally.
