Genshin Impact, but the chat group

Therefore, he had to find out what was going on with this Aizen-sama who seemed to be a god.

"excuse me."

Seno walked to one of the mercenary gathering places in the city and patted the mercenary on the outermost edge.

"What's going on here? Why is everyone gathered here?"

"Hmm? Kid, this is a place to listen to stories."

Sino's relatively short stature caused the mercenaries opposite him to underestimate him, but he still explained why the mercenaries were gathered there.

"Want to hear a story?"

Sino was puzzled. What story?

"You must have joined our clan later, you don't even know the story of Lord Aizen."

Seeing Seno's puzzled look, the mercenary figured that this was probably a child from one of the tribes that had joined later, so he began to explain.

"When our god Aizen came to the desert, the first tribe he came into contact with was the Camus tribe in the south, who worshipped the Red King. You should have heard of this, right?"

"Ah."

Sino knows about this.

"The Camus Clan was the first clan to follow Lord Aizen, and their clan leader Camus was naturally the first clan leader to follow Lord Aizen. Every time the clan went to war, it was Clan Leader Camus who spoke to the enemy on behalf of Lord Aizen. Therefore, Clan Leader Camus was also the first clan leader under Captain Aizen."

The mercenary pointed to the high platform in the very center of the crowd, where a burly man was sitting cross-legged.

“That’s Chief Camus.”

"So, Chief Camus is preparing to tell a story?"

“That’s right. Patriarch Camus was the first patriarch to follow Lord Aizen. No one understands Lord Aizen better than him!”

The mercenary spoke excitedly, as if he were Chief Camus himself.

"So what story is he going to tell?"

"Our city has just been built, but because so many tribes have joined later, many people have never seen Lord Aizen. So Chief Camus led his people to tell stories about Lord Aizen in the city, so that those of us who joined later would know what a great god Lord Aizen is."

So that's how it is. Is it a story about Aizen? That's perfect. Seno also needs to investigate Aizen, so he can come and listen in!

"Hey kid, you're short, squeeze forward a bit, you won't hear anything from the back."

Although he was annoyed that the mercenary said he was short, Seno nodded to him on the surface and then squeezed into the crowd. The mercenaries wanted to get angry when they were pushed, but after seeing how short Seno was, they didn't say anything. They were still a little more polite to the child.

As Seno pushed his way to the front, Camus began his narration on the platform.

Camus stood up and slowly waved his right hand at the crowd.

"In the thousand years since the Red King left, the desert has been in constant turmoil. To the east, the rainforest people have been invading, and to the north, the sacred skeleton beasts have been lurking."

"Lord Aizen has summoned our Camus clan, preparing to restore peace and order to the desert!"

"And before Lord Aizen set off, he said something like this."

"Though I have no intention of vying for power, I know the suffering of the common people. I only wish to cleanse the world and protect this corner of the floating world."

249. Do you understand Lord Aizen better, or do I?

"Lord Aizen wanted to unify the desert so that the people of the desert could live happily and no longer be ravaged by war!"

"That's right, Lord Aizen is a god who loves people! He unified the desert all for our sake!"

"Hmph, of course. If it weren't for Lord Aizen, would you be qualified to sit with me?"

"Heh, this is Lord Aizen's great power. Don't talk like you're the one who benefited."

"Alright, stop arguing. What's there to argue about? We may have been enemies before, but now we're all Lord Aizen's subjects!"

"That's right. Lord Aizen also used his power to build such a huge castle for us, so that we can see the light without worrying about being burned by the sun. At this rate, I'm starting to worry that I'll turn white, hahaha."

Camus has finished telling Aizen's story. Basically, it's about Aizen leading his Camus clan to conquer the entire desert. The mercenaries here mostly know this, but what they don't know is that the reason their Lord Aizen conquered the desert was for the sake of their desert people. So after Camus's story, they were all deeply moved.

These moved mercenaries did not leave; instead, they continued to gather together and began to praise their Lord Aizen.

"That's not all. Do you remember how Lord Aizen conquered us?"

"Of course I remember. Let the strongest warriors in our tribe come out to challenge him. No matter how many there are, he is just one person... no, one god to face us."

"Hahaha, we were so naive back then, we thought Lord Aizen was just a weak mortal, but we all fell at Lord Aizen's hands."

"Hmph, Lord Aizen loves us mortals. Although we were defeated by Lord Aizen, he did not kill any of us. He only left us severely injured and on the ground. After receiving treatment, we were able to save our lives and stand up again."

At this point, a mercenary with bandages wrapped around his body stood up, patted the bandages on his chest, and shouted loudly.

"That's right, I was personally cut down by Lord Aizen. You lot don't deserve that kind of treatment!"

"Tch, so what if he was lucky enough to have fought Aizen-sama? Anyone could do that. If I hadn't been stopped by the clan leader, I would have rushed up and let Aizen-sama chop me down."

The injured mercenary's words aroused the dissatisfaction of the surrounding mercenaries, who began to berate him.

When Lord Aizen was conquering the various tribes, it was easy for him to kill you. You could just go and offer yourself up. It had nothing to do with your abilities, because no matter how skilled you were, in front of Lord Aizen, it was just a matter of one slash.

But the wounded mercenary refused to give up.

"Heh, you think you'll get cut down by Lord Aizen if you rush in? Lord Aizen doesn't just cut down anyone. For example, most of you were directly crushed to the ground by Lord Aizen's power. That's a completely different story from a hero like me who gets personally cut down by Lord Aizen!"

"What do you know? It's because Lord Aizen doesn't want us to suffer useless casualties!"

"Heh~~ Do you understand Lord Aizen better than I do? If Lord Aizen didn't want to take action, he could have just suppressed all of us from the start. Why did he need to do it personally?"

The wounded mercenary crossed his arms, brimming with pride.

"All of this is because we have gained Lord Aizen's approval!"

"you!"

Just as another argument was about to break out, someone stepped in to act as a peacemaker.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing! We're all one tribe now. Under Lord Aizen's great power, our desert is about to return to the unity it was a thousand years ago. Lord Aizen will lead us back to the era when gods, humans, and the desert coexisted!"

"That's right, not just the desert, Lord Aizen will also lead us to conquer the rainforest!"

Chief Camus joined the discussion.

"We desert people have long endured the oppression of the rainforest people because they possess the Great Tree King as a deity. But now the Great Tree King has been dead for five hundred years, and the Little Lucky Grass King that the rainforest people talk about does not exist at all!"

"Is it true that the Little Lucky Grass King doesn't exist?"

Seno couldn't help but ask. He had been staying here the whole time, listening to Camus's story. He thought he had learned some information about Aizen, but that information wasn't enough. He needed more information, so he stayed here.

Before coming to the desert, he had heard the two mercenaries say that the Little Lucky Grass King did not exist, but he did not believe it. However, now that he heard the First Clan Chief, who followed Aizen, mention this matter again, he could not help but ask out of curiosity.

"you are?"

Chief Camus looked at Seno, puzzled, but quickly gave up thinking about it, because there were too many people in the tribe now, tens of thousands, how could he possibly know everyone?

"Never mind, it's probably another child who joined the tribe later."

"Kid, it's normal that you don't know. Let me tell you, the little grass god of Sumeru never existed in the first place."

Why can you be so sure?

Sino couldn't help but press for more information.

Camus couldn't help but laugh.

"The answer is simple. If the Grass God were here, it wouldn't have been absent for 500 years. Most importantly, our Lord Aizen also possesses the power of the Grass God. Do you see the trees in this city? They all grew when Lord Aizen stomped his foot. If Sumeru had a Grass God, it probably wouldn't be as much like the Grass God as our Lord Aizen."

"Lord Aizen has mastered the power of trees?"

Seno looked at the dense trees. He had been in the rainforest for too long and hadn't reacted much to the sight of the trees. Only now did he realize that this city was built in the desert and shouldn't have so many trees!

"That's right, these trees were all summoned by Lord Aizen's great power. Even if there is a grass god in Sumeru, it should be our Lord Aizen who takes on that role!"

At this point, Chief Camus laughed happily.

"But soon, there will be no more kingdoms of grass gods, and naturally, there will be no need for grass gods. Lord Aizen will lead us to conquer the rainforest. At that time, whether it is the desert or the rainforest, it will all belong to Lord Aizen. In the entire Sumeru, there will only be one god: Lord Aizen!"

"At that time, the entire Sumeru will belong to Lord Aizen, and to our kingdom!"

"All glory belongs to Lord Aizen!"

250. Elheisen, Grand Steward of Las Noches

Grand Steward Elhesen!

Yes, Grand Steward Elhesen!

The city that Li Yue established, which the desert mercenaries call Aizen-sama, is called Hueco Mundo. Although Camus, the first clan leader to follow Li Yue, received the title of First Clan Leader, there is a Grand Steward above him.

This chief steward is none other than Elhesen!

As the first person to truly follow Li Yue to the desert, Li Yue put Elhesen in charge of managing the desert tribes after he conquered them.

Elhesen's personality is that of someone who doesn't like to manage things; he just wants to get his own business done and live an easy life. But faced with an increasingly large desert tribe, he has to step in and help manage it, especially a large tribe of tens of thousands of people. At least he can help manage it and find out what Li Yue's next plan is.

As Li Yue acted, he felt that Li Yue's power was unfathomable, and even suspected that Li Yue was really a god. Before, he thought that Li Yue just wanted to replace the Great Sage, but now it seems that this is not about replacing the Great Sage, but about becoming the god of Sumeru. And he did not start from Sumeru City, but from the desert.

This is a complete disaster for Sumeru City, because Sumeru City's defenses consist of only the Thirty-Three Regiment and some gilded brigades, with the rest being some disciplinary officers. Compared to these mercenaries who grew up in the blood and fire of the desert, these people are completely inadequate.

Elhesen had never considered this matter before, but now, comparing the military strength of the rainforest and the desert, the combat capabilities of the two sides are simply not on the same level.

Previously, the desert posed no threat to the rainforest, partly because the rainforest contained the Great Tree King, and even if the Great Tree King disappeared, there was still the Little Lucky Grass King. Furthermore, the various tribes in the desert were hostile to each other and never formed a unified whole, so they posed virtually no threat to the rainforest.

But now, it is speculated that the Little Lucky Grass King does not exist, and the desert has been unified, so the power of the two sides has been completely reversed and is now asymmetrical.

"I wonder what he's planning to do next."

Standing at the entrance to the massive pyramid in the center of Hueco Mundo, Elhesen looked at the enormous city covered by the sky and couldn't help but sigh.

"With such powerful abilities that can easily change the world, if they want to target Sumeru, the Order of the Church simply cannot stop them."

"At that time, Sumeru City will probably only face destruction."

The thought of his house in Sumeru City being destroyed filled Elhesen with a sense of helplessness, but at the same time, he also felt a complex mix of emotions.

Because he was assigned a very large house in this Void Palace, exchanging his house in Sumeru City for this large house in the Void Palace. If this were an ordinary person, they would probably be laughing in their sleep.

However, El-Hysen's intuition told him that Li Yue was suspicious. He clearly had the ability to control the higher-ups of the Order of the Church at will, and could even kill all the members of the Order of the Church by himself, but he did not do so. Instead, he deliberately came to the desert, which was obviously a detour. This was very abnormal.

"Grand Steward Elhesen!"

As Elhesen was pondering, several tribal chiefs approached.

"Is there something you need?"
