Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

……
……
Bai Ye was stunned. This was the first time he had gained some understanding of the "gods" in the sea.
It is said that there are four newborn beings in the deep sea, representing "existence", "reproduction", "growth" and "migration".
And now, the very beginning of "migration" is in his right arm.
"hiss……"
Bai Ye gasped.
As the tingling sensation in his right arm subsided, he gradually began to experience the so-called modifications and adaptability shown in the game system panel.
He had previously felt that the cold air released by Yera was very cold, but now his right arm had adapted to the low temperature. Even in the extreme cold environment, his blood circulation, nervous system and muscles were all normal and unaffected.
"Such an amazing ability to adapt..."
Bai Ye couldn't help but marvel at the wondrous changes happening to his body. This sudden enhancement made him somewhat unaccustomed to it.
Then, Bai Ye began to marvel at the power of the Sea Heir race. This was only a power possessed by a newly born being. What if four newly born beings awakened simultaneously…
Bai Ye is currently unaware that one of the nascent consciousnesses has died, leaving only a physical body to sustain the horde.
However, he still felt a sense of crisis.
Fortunately, he still had time, and one of the newborns was already in his arms.
What's more, they also have players.
Chapter Ninety-Three: Praise My God, Gangmen
"Bai Ye, are you changing your expression?"
Seeing Bai Ye's constantly changing expression, Yela asked with some concern.
Bai Ye shook his head, stood up from the ground, moved his right hand, and readjusted to the sudden increase in strength in his right arm.
Now, his left and right hands are completely different in terms of strength and physical strength. These values cannot be reflected in the game system's attribute panel, so Bai Ye can only feel them himself.
"Thank you, Yela!"
Bai Ye expressed his heartfelt gratitude, not expecting that this meeting with Yeragand would yield such great results. Not only had his powers been enhanced, but he had also unlocked some information about his right arm.
"How can I thank you..." Bai Ye looked at the god in front of him, somewhat troubled.
"Oh... there's no need for that, it's too formal. I'm quite happy to see you, this is the first time I've interacted with someone of my own kind," Yera said with a smile.
Bai Ye thought for a moment, then joked, "At worst, I'll just believe you... Gangmen!"
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together, making a show of it.
Yela waved her hands repeatedly: "That's really unnecessary."
After tilting her head and thinking for a moment, Yela said, "Perhaps you can help me solve some problems within the Snow Realm, namely the conflict between the three race councils and the sudden appearance of the undead."
Bai Ye nodded. Indeed, this was the important business he had come to Shelag to take care of.
The two sat down again, and Bai Ye asked with some curiosity, "What do you think of the undead? I've heard that their lack of faith and various behaviors make them very disliked by the people of Snow Realm. So, as the god of Snow Realm, what are your thoughts?"
Yela shook her head: "Actually, I don't really care. I told you before that I'm also hesitant and troubled about whether or not to maintain this so-called faith. On the one hand, I can't abandon these people, but on the other hand, I don't know what I should do."
The girl paused, then said, "Besides, I am no longer the king of this country. Now, I am merely a symbol. The people of Snow Realm have transformed their faith in me into a kind of faith in faith itself."
"They've become accustomed to having faith, that's all. Whether I'm there or not, or whether Jeragand becomes something else, makes no difference to them."
As Bai Ye listened, he nodded: "So, as for you personally, you don't really care how the immortals view you?"
“That’s right, that’s how it is.” Yera said, then suddenly laughed. “I’ve observed them. This very peculiar race has its own unique culture and civilization, completely different from other civilizations on this land. And they are very interesting.”
Yera found the various things the players did in the snowy landscape very novel.
Bai Ye nodded, then snapped his fingers: "In that case, everything will be much easier to solve. You only need to say a word to resolve the issue. Even if you don't want to appear directly, you can use the supernatural phenomenon to communicate your will through your Holy Maiden."
"Since the people of the Snow Realm worship you, they must carry out your will to the very end."
Yela nodded: "That's a good method, and it's very simple, but I'm thinking about something else."
"As you know, the conflict in the Snow Realm right now isn't just about the undead, but a struggle between the conservatives and the reformers. The so-called undead are just a spark that ignites the conflict."
As she spoke, Yela looked at Bai Ye and said softly, "I know that even without outsiders like the undead, the conflict would eventually escalate due to other things."
“Recently, every meeting of the Three Races Council held at the top of this sacred mountain has been unpleasant, and the Three Races Council is on the verge of falling apart.”
Bai Ye listened and nodded in agreement.
The goddess before us is not an ignorant fool; on the contrary, she is also farsighted and fully aware of what is about to happen.
In fact, her idea was not wrong.
Before he traveled through time, he had seen quests about the Snow Realm Conflict on online forums, but he was doing a quest in Columbia at the time, so he missed the relevant Snow Realm storyline.
Looking back now, it must be related to this matter as well.
"So, what are your thoughts? What would you choose—to be a conservative or a reformer?"
Bai Ye wanted to know what the god before him was thinking.
Because this guy, to some extent, can directly control the direction of things.
Upon hearing this, Yela's gaze toward Bai Ye began to turn somewhat strange. She said softly, "Actually, at first, I was also hesitant and conflicted. I don't care whether it's open or closed. I'm just wondering if, in the event of a crisis, someone wants to invade Snow Realm and this country, can I protect the people here?"
“At first, I thought I was capable of doing it, so whether it was reform or continued to be closed and conservative, it made no difference to me.”
"However, I have now made up my mind."
As she spoke, Yela looked at Bai Ye: "The person who made me make this decision is you. You know, when someone with great strength, even no less than me, suddenly appeared in the Snow Realm, I was quite panicked at first."
Fortunately, you are very friendly here and have no ill intentions.
"However, I am still a little scared. What if there are other powerful beings like you in the outside world, and they happen to be less friendly than you? I would not be able to protect the people of Snowland in the face of such a powerful enemy."
"Therefore, the children here must become strong themselves and cannot rely solely on me. The feathered beasts of the snow mountain will push their children off cliffs to teach them to fly, and I must do the same."
After listening, Bai Ye nodded in agreement: "So, you're starting to support the reforms now?"
“Yes, I originally didn’t want to get involved in the conflict between the two sides anymore, but in the end, I still chose to intervene. Since this country was created because of me, I also have a responsibility to continue to protect it.” Yera stood up, her expression unusually serious.
"I will help, as a way of thanking you for what happened before."
As Bai Ye spoke, he shook his right arm.
"Since you have already made a clear decision, I have a plan."
Yela nodded, signaling Bai Ye to continue.
Bai Ye then asked a question: "Yela, do you know how to correct a country that stubbornly wants to close itself off from the world?"
Chapter Ninety-Four: Yela, Time to Drop the Mask
Yela naturally couldn't answer Bai Ye's question.
Bai Ye replied with a subtle expression, "The simplest answer is to open it through external pressure."
This world is quite realistic. If you fall behind, you will be bullied. Self-isolation is not an effective way to protect yourself, because these things will be shattered under external pressure.
"The reason why the snowy region is still safe is because of your protection and because the surrounding countries are not interested in you."
"Sherrag is bordered by Casimir to the north, Colombia to the west, and Victoria to the east. All three are major powers. If any of them becomes interested in the Snow Realm, they can easily take it over. Alternatively, the three of them could choose to divide Sherrag among themselves."
Yela didn't speak, but nodded in agreement.
Although she was indeed very strong, ever since she learned that the outside world was far more terrifying than she had believed, she was no longer sure if she had the ability to protect the Snow Realm.
“But there’s nothing in Shelag that’s worth plundering, is there?” Yera asked with some doubt. “We only have some minerals here, but they’re not plentiful; besides that, there are only mountains, villages, lakes, and snow.”
Bai Ye smiled and shook his head: "You still underestimate Snow Realm. The advantages that Sherag possesses are unmatched by most countries on this land."
"Am I here?" Yela puffed out her chest with a hint of pride.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ye immediately wore an expression that was both amused and exasperated.
It's really quite difficult.
After laughing, Bai Ye explained seriously, "Lord Yela is naturally one of the few gods who are quite close to humans, but that's not the point. In fact, for some countries, having a god above them makes them very uncomfortable."
"The advantage I'm referring to is that of Sherag itself. Snowlands is one of the few countries that has never been ravaged by natural disasters. Therefore, you don't even need to build mobile cities. On this land, people have long been accustomed to the ravages of natural disasters. A safe region that is not affected by natural disasters is truly rare and precious."
"If handled properly, the value of the snowfield will definitely exceed your imagination."
After a pause, Bai Ye sighed and said, "People have become accustomed to migrating around. The natural disasters of the Four Calamities have made it difficult to preserve even the graves of our ancestors. Snow Realm is incredibly lucky. The people here have lived in one place for generations, a peace that is unimaginable to outsiders."
“Waiting for external intervention to completely break the blockade is too difficult and too dangerous. However, if I were to personally appear and say something, it would be too abrupt and lack a trigger, making it difficult for people to believe.” Yera was somewhat troubled.
She didn't actually like to personally act as king and lead the people of the Snow Realm as she had in the past. In her view, the people here should rely on themselves rather than depend on her for everything.
“In that case, I can provide you with such an opportunity.” Bai Ye held up a finger. “How about I act as that external force? It will resolve the conflict between the undead and the reformist and conservative factions at the same time.”
"Wow, that's a great idea!"
Yela wasn't worried that Bai Ye had any bad intentions. First of all, she was able to sense people's emotions to a certain extent, and Bai Ye clearly didn't have any bad intentions; he was a good person.
Secondly, the snowy landscape is Yeragand's home turf, and here, she believes that White Night cannot threaten her.
Therefore, Yela readily agreed to White Night's suggestion.
"Are you alone?" Yera asked Bai Ye curiously about his plans.
"Of course not... First of all, I have a mercenary group under my command, which is suitable for doing some shady business, so it's perfect for this; secondly, this plan requires the cooperation of you, the Saintess, and SilverAsh."
As he spoke, Bai Ye looked at Yela with a wicked smile: "Lady Yela, stop playing the double game and it's time to lay your cards on the table."
"Huh?!" Yela was a hundred times unwilling when she heard Bai Ye say that she had to tear off her own disguise.
“I’m doing a pretty good job as head maid. Do you really want me to reveal myself? It feels like a waste… Besides, because of this identity, I can be very close to the Holy Maiden, we can talk about anything, we’re very good friends. What if she finds out I’m a god…”
Yera had been quite composed, not even alarmed by the potential dangers in the snowy realm. But now, she looked completely bewildered, like someone about to meet an online friend in person.
"Have some ambition, will you? You're a god, how can something as trivial as this stump you?" Bai Ye chuckled. "It seems you have the best relationship with this generation's Holy Maiden? I didn't expect the God of Snow Realm to care about a mortal."
“We are indeed the closest of friends. We’re like sisters.” Yela nodded.
Bai Ye shook his head and comforted him, "Then it's alright. Do you think that someone you spend every day with, someone you know so well, would be unable to accept you after you reveal your true identity?"
"The answer is, she won't treat you any differently. Your usual behavior makes it difficult for her to regard you as a god."
"So, I have no authority at all?!" Yera raised her eyebrows.
Bai Ye didn't speak, but simply nodded.
"..."
-------------------------------------
"Miss Jian."
In the afternoon, the retired Black Knight finally met White Night, who had come down from the Holy Mountain.
He was still wearing thin clothes, his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed, as if he hadn't gone hiking at all, but had just taken a walk after dinner.
"They hid it so well..." Jian couldn't help but complain.
She had previously thought Bai Ye was just an ordinary person, but she never expected that he would suddenly reveal his true colors at the foot of the Holy Mountain without any warning.
Despite her complaints, Jian still took the task assigned to her by SilverAsh seriously: "Mr. White Night, what do you think of the scenery on the Holy Mountain?"
"Well, it was pretty good, and I also met an interesting friend. We had a brief chat," Bai Ye replied with a smile.
Jian didn't think much of it. Of course, she wouldn't have imagined that the "interesting friend" Bai Ye mentioned would be a god worshipped in this country.
Right at the summit of the holy mountain, a man and a god determined the future of this nation.
Jian simply asked, "Today I saw several extreme blizzards on the Holy Mountain, and the weather nearby is also quite bad. Mr. Baiye, don't you feel cold?"
"Actually, I'm fine." Bai Ye shrugged. It turned out that he and Yela had caused quite a stir.
Chapter Ninety-Five: Goodbye W
Now that he had revealed his strength, Bai Ye decided to stop pretending.
The two took the train back to their previous residence. Bai Ye activated a soundproof barrier and then flew away on his own.
