Chapter 200: Eternity

Chapter 200: Eternity

Some people say that Jun Bai knew that his elder brother was in the Abyss but did not go to save him now, which does not fit in with the character created in the previous plot, so I will explain it here.

In the original story, Xiao had always known about the nameless Yaksha, but he didn't go down to find Fushe until version 2.8.

First of all, it is necessary to guard Liyue, but this is not a problem for both the original and new versions.

One emperor is enough to intimidate the villains in all directions, not to mention that I have other combat forces available.

So it’s mainly the second question, I don’t know where it is.

Although that place is in the underground area of ​​the Layered Abyss, it is essentially a space created by the Taiwei Disk. The entrance was only revealed after the Frost Sky Nail in the original plot began to operate.

In other words, before the protagonist of the game solves the problem of the Chasm, that space is completely closed.

In a completely closed situation, it is impossible to find the location of the space unless there are corresponding coordinates.

So Jun Bai can only wait until the plot develops before rescuing his elder brother, because Jun Bai doesn’t know where the entrance is now.

(Compared to the new version of the plot, I think "Eternity" is a better name for this PV than the original "Fudo Naruto: The Bubble Is Broken".)

(Most of the PV content is for reference only and will not appear in the main text. You can speculate the plot based on the content, but don't take it seriously.)

The screen lit up, and a real-game demo of the new map Inazuma appeared in the preview live broadcast.

However, this actual demo lacked color, with only gray and white appearing on the entire screen.

The narrator begins to speak:

"If Mondstadt is the city-state of [freedom] and Liyue is the land of [contract], then Inazuma... is the kingdom of [eternity]."

[Hmm? This voice is...]

[Voiced by Boss Jun, it can be seen that the boss really feels free, and even starts to act as a narrator. ]

(System: This is what I matched...)

"Five hundred years ago, after the demonic disaster caused by Kanreya brought disaster to Inazuma, the general's belief in "eternity" was shaken. The ruler who controls the thunder has embarked on another path to practice eternity."

Purple thunder struck, the clear sky was covered by dark clouds, and the originally peaceful island was isolated from the world in the thunderstorm.

"The lockdown has lasted for a hundred years. Will it continue like this in the future?"

(A century of isolation, done by a doctor.)

In the quaint Japanese-style house, a black-haired young man in an ink-colored Taoist robe stood in the courtyard, looking up at the thunderstorm in the sky and the castle tower not far away.

The picture does not show the boy's face directly, but only gives a close-up of those strange eyes.

A pair of dark purple eyes were filled with inexplicable emotions, and three magatama patterns were slowly rotating in the pupils.

[Sharingan? Or a pair? ]

[This character was voiced by Mr. Jun, and I remember his name was Shiba Kaoru. ]

[So is this a true swordsman or a Hokage? ]

A red paper umbrella appeared above Shiba Xun's head.

A slender figure holding a paper umbrella stood beside the boy and faced the thunderstorm with him.

A female voice sounded:

"Since five hundred years ago, exorcising evil spirits has been the mission of the Shiba family. The Amamiya family is willing to be loyal to the Shiba family for generations."

"The Amemiya family has been a retainer of the Shiba family for generations, so as long as it is your will, I will follow it."

The camera then turned to the front of the two people. The picture was blurry and only the cherry blossoms falling from the cherry tree in the courtyard could be seen.

The petals fluttered, and lightning split a petal in two.

"Shiba family, Narukami amulet, Shiba Kaoru!"

The young man holding the slender sword swung it down, and the magatama patterns in his eyes lit up.

"Amamiya family, under the amulet, Amamiya Kotoya."

Surrounded by a stream of water, a slender young woman appeared behind the boy, with black satin wrapped around her eyes and a slender dagger in each hand.

【It's a new husband and a new wife! 】

[Water and thunder, are they going to use electric shock to coordinate their attacks? ]

[It's OK in terms of appearance, but unfortunately it doesn't have the same feeling as the original Liyue plot. 】

"After a century of isolation, will the general now deprive others of their wishes in order to practice eternity?"

The two walked side by side, the scene around them blurred and changed rapidly, and finally only the young man appeared in front of the gate of the castle tower.

A terrifying lightning flashed, and a man on the field fell down, and the Eye of God went out and fell out of his hand.

"Eye Hunting Order, all God's Eyes must be taken away and built into the Thousand-Handed and Hundred-Eyed God Statue."

"The Eye of God represents a person's wish. If the Eye of God is taken away, the wish will also be taken away and built into the statue."

"So since the Eye Hunting Order was issued, those who have aspirations have either left Inazuma, joined the resistance against the Eye Hunting Order, or allowed themselves to be slaughtered."

"Only this person chose to duel in front of the emperor, risking his life to fight against the Eye Hunting Order."

[Another second brother? ]

[Duel in front of the God. This “in front of the God” means not facing the Thunder God directly. You can’t say that there is someone in Inazuma who can sit on top of the Thunder God. 】

[Thanks for the class representative's explanation. I would like to add that the bet on life means that the loser has to send it.]

At this moment, the picture becomes like ink painting, looking like a fragment of memories.

"There will always be creatures on earth that dare to face the power of thunder." A steady male voice sounded.

In the memory, Kaedehara Manye was sitting on the grass, and the young man who fell in the castle tower was standing beside him.

【Manye! My precious leaf! 】

【Who is this? I don’t know. 】

[Airborne character, now in the card pool, is a support, but I don't think it's as useful as Sucrose. 】

(PS: I put the plot of the Death Star into version 2.0, so for players now, Manye is really airborne.)

(Ask me why I arranged this.)

(That is, I want to see the pain of most players not having Manye after Ayaka and Raijin come out.)

"Do you want to challenge Wuxiang's sword?"

He asked as Kaedehara Manye's voice sounded.

"The eternity that the general understands is not something that we can understand. I only know one thing."

“Although the century-long lockdown made the people numb, it did not cause them to suffer.”

"However, the Eye Hunting Order will cause people like you and me to lose their wishes. I don't want to see that happen."

The picture froze on the young man's face shrouded in shadow, and then blurred again.

"Before the Eye Hunting Order takes root in Inazuma, I will do what I can. That knife may not be out of reach."

The smile on the young man's face was frozen in memory.

[So, he went to duel in front of the emperor, and then sent it? ]

[You want to criticize me even for the PV, you are indeed miHoYo. 】

[Your courage is commendable, but not everyone can be as brave as my second brother.]

The screen is divided into two.

"I can't let his ardent wish be built into a cold statue!"

Maple Leaf suddenly appeared, picked up the young man's extinguished Eye of God, and ran out of the castle tower.

And in the picture on the other side.

Shiba Xun walked into the castle tower and bowed to Inazuma's most honorable being:

"Narakamiya, I greet the general."

The screen then gave a close-up of Shiba Xun's face, and her melancholy eyes looked at the young man who fell beside her without leaving a trace.

"The national lockdown order and the eye hunting order refuse all external connections, erase all internal variables, and let everything stay at this moment."

"Is this what eternity looks like to the general?"

Shiba Xun closed his eyes and lowered his head. His handsome face was shrouded in shadow and his expression could not be seen clearly.

“Is this kind of eternity really correct?”

[Pass it on, Marshal Tianfeng knelt down to the Thunder God in Inazuma, and from now on, Guili Collection will be managed by Inazuma (funny.jpg)]

[I didn’t feel anything before, but this sentence really hit me straight on the top of my head, and I felt a tingling sensation on my scalp. ]

[Is this guy planning to rebel? ]

[Thunder element, one-handed sword, disrespect for God, even planning to rebel, is that you? Ah Qing! ]

[Keqing hasn’t reached the point of rebellion yet, and she is actually a hidden fan of the Emperor and the Marshal…]

The screen gradually went dark, and when it lit up again, Little N's voice rang out:

"I am Kamisato Ayaka, the priest of the Inazuma Society. People respectfully call me the White Egret Princess."

Inazuma Castle is very lively with people coming and going, but the people and objects shown in the picture are all gray and white.

The only color is Kamisato Ayaka walking in the crowd. In the gray city, the elegant Princess Egret is the only color.

"The community is in charge of rituals and culture, but the culture of Inazuma has remained unchanged for hundreds of years."

"Even if you hold a sacrifice, the general won't respond."

"The general is practicing eternity in his own way. He does not respond or make progress. Is this the eternity of God?"

"In such an eternity, even sacrifices are no longer meaningful." Kamisato Ayaka stopped and paused.

However, no one paid attention to her on the busy street.

Even though she was an outlier, she was still very small in this gray city.

[Linghua! My eldest lady! I have been waiting for you since I saw you in "Footprints"! ]

[Is "Waiting for God" finally coming to an end? 】

[This scene is so heavy and depressing. It is completely different from the excitement in Liyue.]

[A century of isolation... Did I read this in history books? Is the prototype of this Inazuma definitely from Japan?]

Kamisato Ayaka put away her fan, sighed slightly, and continued walking forward.

The screen went dark again.

Then a lively festival appears in the picture.

“I love festivals and have loved them since I was a child.”

“Especially the fireworks during the festival, they are really beautiful and spectacular!”

Fireworks bloom in the night sky, lighting up the darkness.

Under the fireworks, a little girl who looked about five years old was looking at the fireworks and smiling.

"Since then, I have attended the summer festival every year, but..."

Fireworks are blooming in the night sky again.

The little girl who used to stand under the fireworks has now grown into a graceful young lady.

"The summer festival is the same every year."

"The formula for the fireworks purchased from my house for the festival is the same every year, and even the fireworks are set off in the same location every year."

"I still like festivals, but I still hope to see different scenery at the festival."

Xiao Gong looked at the fireworks extinguishing in the sky with a happy smile on his face.

But when the fireworks went out, the festival behind her turned gray, and she, who maintained her color in the festival, stood out so conspicuously.

[Gray and white represent things that remain unchanged, and color is the variable within the unchanging.]

[Class representatives don’t have to speak. Everyone should have understood this by now.]

[This situation occurred because of the national lockdown order issued by Thunder God...]

[It seems that in the following Inazuma plot, regardless of whether Thor is the god the protagonist is looking for, we will have to play a game with Thor. 】

The camera switches to Xiao Gong's perspective.

When the fireworks in the sky went out, she looked at the calm sea in front of her. The boundless sea was now an endless gray-white color.

It was not until the sky gradually brightened and Xiao Gong left that the color of the sea returned to its azure blue.

A large ship was coming from the other side of the sea.

Southern Cross Fleet, Death Star.

"Is that Inazuma? It has a completely different style from Liyue and Mondstadt. It has a very retro feel!"

"Yeah!"

Paimon and Iya's voices rang out one after another.

[Once the protagonist arrives, the atmosphere instantly changes. 】

[The picture suddenly became bright.]

The Death Star docked at an outlying island, and Kaedehara Manye's voice was heard, as if reminding the protagonist group.

"I need to remind you that the Eye Hunting Order will select the holder of the Eye of God as the target."

"Although none of you three have the Eye of God, you, Traveler, and Iya can both use elemental power. If you are discovered by the Shogunate army, you will most likely be targeted."

"So in Inazuma, please use elemental powers with caution."

At Maplebara Manye's reminder, Ying brought Paimon and Iga to the outlying island.

Then, the camera shows all the viewers what the colorful Inazuma Castle looks like from Ying's perspective.

[It turns out that the actual machine demonstration is here. 】

[The gray filter in the front makes it impossible for me to imagine that Inazuma could be like this in the world of the living. ]

"My three distinguished guests, this is the current Narugamijima amulet, and the fifth-generation head of the Shiba family."

The female voice fell.

A group of men in black, wearing black veils and masks, suddenly appeared.

There were three people who walked out surrounded by the men in black: Shiba Kaoru, Amamiya Kotoya who was half a step behind Shiba Kaoru, and the man with a mask on his face who followed behind the two.

"On behalf of Inazuma, I would like to welcome the three distinguished guests who have come all the way from Liyue."

"You three want to meet the Thunder God. I have a way. Please follow me."

The scene changed, and a statue appeared in the camera. Its size was no less than the statues of the three gods of Liyue worshipped by Gui Liji.

The statue has a solemn appearance, and the god depicted is full of murderous aura, with countless flashing eyes of God embedded on it.

"The Thousand-armed Hundred-eyed Statue is the symbol of the general, and is also the execution site of the Eye Hunting Order. All the Eyes of God targeted by the Eye Hunting Order will be deprived of their Eyes of God here."

"And when the Eye Hunter orders the execution, the general will show himself."

(Out of concern for Thomas, I will not have any characters kneeling there in this scene)

As the words fell, the sky gradually darkened and the camera moved to the Guardian Forest.

"I cannot understand the eternity that the general practices, nor do I want to practice such eternity."

"So, I want to change my monotonous life and try something that I don't dare to do on a normal day."

The girl expressed her true feelings to her friend and danced gracefully under the hazy moonlight.

"I'm the queen of the summer festival, and a festival that isn't exciting enough won't allow me to give full play to my full potential!"

Fireworks were blooming in the night sky. The girl's voice was lively: "Fireworks should be of various kinds to be beautiful! Festival fireworks should use the most grand fireworks formula!"

The stunning festival fireworks brought this to an end.
