Genshin, but the real world

206 Chapter 205 - Identity Change
The sages looked solemn.

It was indeed a fateful moment.

"Actually, we can continue to keep this God of Grass, after all, he definitely has no chance of taking power right now."

"But this can't change anything. The sages after a hundred years still need to face this problem."

Azar paused, and said seriously: "The god is waking up, regaining his power, and walking towards his throne."

"And we took him away from the throne and threw him into a cage."

"When he regains his power, the first thing he will do is to vent the shame and pain of being imprisoned by mortals."

No one expects the mercy of the gods, because they don't know what the gods should have mercy on.

They have already achieved this level, how can anyone still expect the kindness and compassion of the gods?
The sages of the past dynasties and what they are doing, the sages themselves admit that even if they are beaten by the gods, it is reasonable.

"If our generation doesn't solve the problem, then it is nothing more than leaving the problem to future generations."

"I believe, and I hope you all believe, that the wrath of the gods will ignite the entire land of Sumeru."

"He won't just kill the sages at that time to appease his anger. The shame of the gods needs the death of more Xumi people to wash away."

Only kill the culprit?

How can it be!

Just killing a few people can make the gods calm the anger and shame of hundreds of years?

There shouldn't be such a good thing in this world.

Azar insisted that the actions of the sages had touched Nasida's bottom line. Even a benevolent god should know that the human collective is not trustworthy.

It is unreasonable to blame the entire human group for the behavior of an individual, but at the same time it is also the freedom that gods should have.

They have such powerful power, it is impossible for them to protect human beings, right?
Demon gods have enormous power, but their power is to protect their own interests, not to protect human beings.

If this power is used to reason with human beings, it is obviously very easy to make more people believe in him.

The power of the gods can protect human beings, and can also kill human beings.

It can't be that they can only smile at humans, but they can't raise their butcher knives, right?
What is Puxin's idea.

The trust was broken, and based on the unequal status of the two parties, the Sumeru people had to pay a huge price unilaterally to beg the gods for their approval again.

And it is true that the group of six sages imprisoned Naxida, but today, most of the scholars of the Holy Order participated in the god-making project.

Even when Nashida regained her strength later, they were all dead, so there was no need to care about this issue.

Hazard can dismiss the meeting now, like everyone else, as if nothing happened.

But what about later scholars?
Is it just the Six Sages and people from the past who did this?

When the gods get angry, do they really care about such "little things"?

For a high-level life form like a Demon God, there shouldn't be any difference between killing six people and rebuilding the entire Sumeru.

Objectively speaking, Hazard's reasoning is reasonable.

He knew that the sages of Sumeru City were not sorry for Nashida at all, and the hatred of the gods was obviously not limited to the group of the six sages.

Now that he has made a mistake, Hazard chose the latter without hesitation between atonement and making the mistake.

So he didn't intend to let Naxida go.

He had no choice either.

If he was the second generation of great sages, there might still be a chance for redemption and redemption at that time... But now it has been 500 years, how can he make redemption?

They have imprisoned the gods, and even studied the gods for 500 years. Even if Azar leads the contemporary sages to commit suicide in front of the gods and use his own death to appease the anger of the gods being imprisoned, the gods will probably feel that it is not enough, right?
What's more, Hazard doesn't want to die.

There are many ways to solve a problem, and begging the gods is definitely the worst one.

No one can be sure of the nature of the gods. It would be fine if suicide could appease the anger, but what if the six sages died and the God of Grass did not appease the anger after being liberated?

Want to gamble the future of Sumeru and the Holy Order on the fact that the gods will accept human atonement?
No, no.

This is too naive and too gambler.

Instead of begging for forgiveness from the gods who don't know if it will come, it is better to send the god of wisdom away with hatred.

The Great Mercy Tree King can die, and of course the little Auspicious Grass King can also die.

This kind of thinking naturally appeared, and Azar decided to send Naxida away before Naxida had the power to resist.

Anyway, since the contradiction has already appeared, and you think that everything will develop peacefully, the final winner must be the God of Grass... Are you still going to let everything go peacefully?

The troubles have already appeared, and they should be solved.

Hazard did not intend to leave the question to later sages.

He thinks the Six Sages of his generation are special.

They are about to create gods, to replace gods.

Now that this step has been achieved, the elimination of gods at the next level should also be handed over to them.

Hazard doesn't see himself as a villain.

In fact, according to different people's standpoints, Azar even thinks that more than half of his cooperation with fools is to endure humiliation, and he is forced to choose cooperation for the future of Sumeru.

Killing Nashita is certainly possible.

But Sumeru still needs a god after all, a god who can talk to the world's seven rulers.

Jiang Qing's threat has proved that the peace among the seven kingdoms of the world depends on the equal dialogue among the seven ruling powers.

Once that country loses its god who protects it, then the so-called seven kingdoms of the world obviously don't necessarily have to be the seven kingdoms of the world.

The Six Nations is actually not impossible.

In a nutshell, Liyue, the God of Rock, is one of the Seven Kingdoms in the world.

But Liyue himself may be more concerned about who the God of Rock is, but the outside world doesn't care.

Similarly, Sumeru must have the God of Grass, and of course it doesn't just need the power of the grass element, as long as it is a god is enough.

And the premise is that this god also has to choose to shelter Sumeru.

Because of the incident with Nasida, the six sages headed by Azar actually no longer placed their hopes on the demon gods that appeared naturally.

With the lessons learned from the imprisoned God of Wisdom, the later God of Sumeru will obviously choose to clean up the Holy Order first, and take all the power of Sumeru in his hands.

Hazard himself of course thinks this is a heroic move, a great move for Sumi's future.

But this does not prevent him from being very clear that in the eyes of other gods, this kind of rebellious behavior is also despicable and hopeless.

In the final analysis, even if the relationship between gods and gods may not be friendly, they are the same kind of life after all.

Nashida’s lesson from the past will make all the gods lose trust and favor towards Sumeru and the Holy Order.

A group of godless people are not worthy of trust.

So the only choice for Azar, the only choice for the six sages, is to make a god that belongs to the Holy Order.

The Order can manipulate gods.

Sages and scholars are above the gods.

"The gods will become our weapons." Azar made the final sentence, "This is our only chance."

"This is not an option we can decide. In fact, everyone, you and I are too late."

Whether it is sophistry or serious thinking, in short, Azar's words have been recognized by the sages.

They really don't have a choice.

This wave is the assassination of time assassins, which came from the decision made by the six sages 500 years ago, leaving Azar and the others with no choice.

If they were the early six sages, they still had the opportunity and possibility to beg and surrender to the gods.

But 500 years have passed, and everyone has achieved this level, so there is no need to mention such things as begging and surrendering.

"Seconded."

After hesitating for a long time, it was the two sages who opposed the god-making sect who first chose to agree.

"I'm glad you and I are on the same path again." Hazard smiled.

The sages who oppose the god-making faction are not because they have much compassion and kindness to the little auspicious grass king, they just worry more.

Worried about the fools who provide technology, worried about the success rate of the god-making plan, and worried about creating a disobedient god.

They worry too much, so they choose to refuse.

And the sages who supported the creation of gods did not completely ignore these threats, they just accepted Azar's rhetoric long ago.

Time is running out, and they have no choice.

This is the attack of time assassins, who can take those six sages who have made a decision 500 years ago and are already dead now?

The decisions they made, since the descendants inherited the seats of the Six Sages, they have to bear the benefits and responsibilities brought about by their choices.

You can't enjoy the power of the six sages, but ignore the problems and responsibilities that the six sages need to face, right?
They are not so bad.

"Seconded."

The god-making faction, which had already reached a consensus with Hazard, also expressed its position.

In this way, the six sages reached an agreement again.

"I would like to apologize to the two sages for my presumptuous actions and make compensations," Azar said calmly, "Of course, since you have approved our plan, I should come up with more sincerity."

After two or three meetings, these sages who were not stubborn were still moved.

This is not difficult.

It's easy for these people to make the same choice as long as they explain their troubles plainly.

Because no matter what internal contradictions, to others, the six sages are a collective.

They shared the power to control Xumi. Similarly, if something happened to Xumi's turn, none of them could run away.

Who would want to die?
Who would put the hope of survival in the mercy of the gods instead of in their own hands?
It’s fine if you can’t do anything, but the god-making project that Azar and the others put forward is a practical solution.

Although the theory is feasible, it does not mean that it will be successful, but it is better than surrendering and fully expecting the understanding of the gods.

At least, the former is trying to grasp hope, while the latter is purely handing over life and death to the mercy of others.

Ordinary people can accept it, but it is difficult for a person who is already in power like a sage to accept it.

After reaching a consensus, it also means that the meeting has actually achieved its original goal.

But the rest of the matter will be handed over to the future instead, and it is just a bottom line right now.

"There is only one thing we need to do well. In the God-making project, the fools supported the puppet, the heart of God, and even the transformation technology."

Hazard doesn't want to admit it.

The Doctor is a scholar who was expelled from the Holy Order, and now [The Return of the King], he has returned with a technology that even the sages are somewhat incomprehensible.

What kind of bloody plot is this!
Of course, with the information in front of them, they can still understand it, otherwise they would not choose to support the doctor.

There are two levels of being able to understand the technology given by others, and the corresponding technology independently developed.

I don't want to admit it, but that's the truth.

"Since the core technology is provided by them, it also means that it is difficult for us to seize the control of the gods from the hands of fools."

Sages are not stubborn.

With the technology provided by others, the core and puppet provided by others, they want to compete with each other for the control of the gods.

If they think they can win easily, they are not worthy of the profession of scholars.

"Being behind is a fact, but being behind does not mean that there is no way to win." The sage of the Minglun School frowned slightly. "Since the technology has been handed over to us, with the help of the void, we can completely decipher it in a short time."

Falling behind is real.

But the other party has thrown all the materials over, and you still can't understand it, and you can't make any countermeasures, so you can't blame others.

"In addition, the puppets carrying these technologies are currently under our control. If we use the void, we may not be able to bury some cognition in advance."

While not necessarily useful, the thing to do is to do it well.

Meager efforts may not be able to get results, but if there is only such a little effort at the critical moment, it will be too late to regret.

Speaking of this, the sages of the Minglun School spoke as usual.

Before the ally's plan was completed, he had already started to discuss how to backstab the ally.

The sage's expression remained the same as before, and even his tone remained unchanged. He clearly understood the essence of cooperation.

"In terms of technology, in addition to our efforts to improve, there is another means."

There are two ways to close the gap, one is to elevate yourself, and the other is to let the opponent go back.

The sages have never stopped to elevate their own affairs and take advantage of the void.

It wasn't just the ascension of skirmishers that they wanted.

In terms of the development of science and technology, things like the first machine are only developed as a trial, born just to verify data, and then they will be eliminated.

But the anime doesn't write like that.

Anime generally regards the zero machine and the first machine as "accidental painstaking efforts", so that it is obviously a trial model, but as the protagonist's car, its performance can often beat the follow-up finished products.

But the sage doesn't think the world can be so unscientific.

They study stragglers and help stragglers become gods.

But in the eyes of these sages, stragglers are just a precedent.

Its success is for mass production, the heart of God can be replaced by another energy source, and they can learn the production technology of dolls.

In this way, it is impossible for the finished product to become a new god like the stragglers that drive the heart of the god.

But at least, the new finished products can be mass-produced and have the power to simulate gods.

that's enough.

New technologies require parsing, and they do it all the time.

And now let the fools get in trouble......

"It just so happens that our new ally may have ideas in this regard."

Azar smiled kindly.

It would be very difficult for him to manipulate the crowd of fools and Jiang Qing into confrontation.

Because the people on both sides are not stupid, and there is no conflict of interest, no matter how provocative they are, it is difficult to get them to be serious.

If the fools don't put their energy into fighting Jiang Qing, the sages won't be able to complete their plan to equalize the gap.

But the two sides are not completely without contradictions.

Not to mention the past confrontation, just now, Jiang Qing wants the God of Grass, while the Fools want to keep the production of the God of Opportunity.

These seem to be two things that have no conflict of interest, and in fact there is no conflict of interest.

The birth of the God of Positive Opportunity does not require the little grass king to pay anything... except for the heart of the god.

But the Heart of God has always maintained the operation of the void. In the eyes of the sages, it has long been the property of the sages, not the treasure of Naxida.

In this way, the fools seem to be able to maintain a short-term peace with Jiang Qing.

But here is Sumi.

Whether there is a conflict of interest, the Fools and Jiang Qing don't count.

In this piece of land, the Holy Order holds the greatest advantage.

No contradiction can create conflict, and no conflict can create conflict.

The fragile tacit understanding between Fools and Jiang Qing couldn't bear any suspicion.

As long as any party takes the lead, the matter will be completed.

Whether both sides suffered losses, or one side beat the other to death, this matter was a waste of money for the Holy Order.

Anyway, two enemies.

It doesn't matter how the enemy dies, the death of the enemy is very important to the Holy Order.

The six sages looked at each other with similar smiles on their faces.

They reached unity and became an alliance of common interests.

At least for now, they don't have any conflicting thoughts because of past conflicts.

After the sages reached a consensus, Jiang Qing, who was originally judged as an enemy, became an enemy who could cooperate.

Identity is always changing, because people's interests and needs are constant, but there are many problems and contradictions that need to be faced.

In order to deal with these troubles and obtain the final benefits, the change of identity is not a difficult thing for the sages.

Today fools may be friends, tomorrow fools may be enemies that must be slain.

At the heart of it all is the same.

For Sumi.

Yesterday's Jiang Qing was an enemy, but today's Jiang Qing may be a friend.

This is also for Sumi.

"Let's go, let's meet our allies in person." Azar said solemnly.

The six sages greeted them together. This honor is actually a bit too much.

But what Azar and the others respected was not Jiang Qing, but the God of Thunder who was "betrayed by Jiang Qing".
