Yae Shinko was lazily lying on the desk, her head resting on her elbow, and her other hand holding a pen and making some corrections.
I have such a strong sense of déjà vu, I feel like I have seen this posture somewhere before.
"Master Palace Administrator, a guest wants to see you."
"What guests... I said that apart from the general and the little guy, I won't be with anyone else... Hmm? So you are a traveler, what do you want from me?"
Yae Shinko squinted his eyes and saw who was coming, then he sat up straight and stretched out his hands.
Ying looked at Paimon.
Paimon said, "Master Palace Administrator, we are here because of the order of the priest."
"What's his backup plan?"
"He told us to retrieve him from some dimension."
"Ok?"
The Yae Goddess, who was stretching, paused and perked up.
She smiled and said, “This is interesting.”
Chapter 441: Hope for a Lazy Life
People who are familiar with Yae Shinko know that she always has a lazy attitude towards things she is not interested in. If...she becomes serious, it means she has found something fun.
Has the current chief priest sensed that something fun is going to happen? Daocheng Yingmei thought, and remained silent, pretending to be a wooden man.
Ying didn't know the twists and turns here. She was wondering, does this Lord Palace Master really take matters involving the priests very seriously?
"Little guy didn't tell me about your affairs... Do you have any evidence, little traveler?"
"Evidence... Traveler, do we have evidence?" Paimon pinched his chin and thought for a while, then turned around and looked at Ying and asked.
Ying said, "Yes. Paimon, how could you forget?"
"Hehe." Paimon got away with it with a silly smile.
She saw Ying take out a weapon, which was a katana with cracks on the blade. If she was a knife lover, she would definitely be furious and loudly criticize the inappropriate behavior.
Unfortunately, there are no such people here. From the perspective of an adventurer, Ying also felt that it was a pity.
This weapon is rarely used in actual combat, and it feels like it will break if touched. The reason it hasn't broken is that it is being maintained by a certain force.
"Ame-no-Kage-tachi, so the little guy gave you this weapon? Hmm...it's perfect."
"Hey? Lord Palace Administrator, do you have any opinions?" Paimon knew what it meant to ask questions when you don't understand.
Yae Kamiko smiled and said, "I don't have any opinion... I just know that the weapon the little guy was holding when he went up to the castle tower was this one. Oh, no wonder I didn't see this weapon later. Is it like this?"
"Wow..." Paimon's attention was focused on the weapon.
Even she knew that the battle at the castle tower a month or two ago had had a profound impact. The current situation in Inazuma was all established by that battle.
Ordinary people don't know the truth about the castle tower. They only know that a warrior broke into the castle tower, defeated powerful hatamoto generals along the way, had a duel with the general in front of the emperor, and was finally defeated.
Defeat in a duel before the emperor was often synonymous with death.
Ying and Paimon know another version.
In that version, the previous situation was the same as what ordinary Inazuma people knew. But in this version, the warrior who had a duel with the general was still alive.
Thinking of this, Ying also looked at the weapon in his hand.
Yae Shinko said at this time: "The battle between the little guy and the general is already at the level of a demon god. Although the Ame-me Kage-tachi is a weapon created by the peak of mortal skills, it is too difficult to face Nakiri no Inako directly."
She took the weapon from Ying's hand, stroked the cracks on the blade, and continued: "This weapon survived the battle of "Muxiang". Its historical significance is comparable to the Nakiri no Inahiru in the general's hand. With this thing... little girl, come with me."
"Master Palace Administrator, what about the official documents here?"
Nana Kanno, who was serving at the side, asked. She had been in charge of official documents during this period. She was mainly responsible for managing the smooth handover of official documents by the raccoon cats and also for distributing their rewards.
Yae Miko said, "Hey, Nana-chan, do you still need to ask about something like this? Of course it's temporarily sealed. The rest of the matter will be left to the little one and the general."
Having said that, Nana Shikano did not dissuade him again.
"Come on, little girl, there's that little flying thing over there, I'll take you there."
After stuffing the Ame-kage katana back into Ying's arms, Yae Shinko pulled Ying and walked out of the shrine.
This life of burying oneself in books and official documents all day long can finally come to an end.
Yae Shinko was full of confidence before. It was just an official document. What was so difficult about it? But later, he became annoyed and tired. Today, he felt sleepy when he saw the black and white words on the official document.
If you have the opportunity to ask for help, why not do it?
We walked out of the main gate of Narukami Taisha Shrine and walked down the Torii Corridor. But before we finished walking down the Torii Corridor, Yae Kamiko asked, "Little girl, do you have the wings of wind?"
"Have."
"Then fly down with me."
Yae Kamiko took her hand and jumped directly from the edge of the Torii corridor.
Ying didn't think much about it and jumped down directly, and the wings of wind spread out immediately.
"Hey, why did you jump down. Wait, wait Paimon!" Paimon watched the two people jump down one after another, stamped his feet anxiously, and then followed.
The two of them, along with Paimong, would fly, and their destination was not the foot of the mountain, but a location above the road below the Torii Corridor, where there was a cave.
The cave was protected by a barrier. The Eightfold Divine Son naturally removed the defensive barrier, revealing the full picture of the cave.
"Torii, why does it appear in such a place?" asked the ignorant Paimon.
The experienced Ying looked at the torii gate. The entrance of the torii gate was of an unusual color, like a dark passage dotted with stars, and no one knew where it led to.
Ying thought about what the priest had said to her. He asked her to lead him out from a special place. Could it be that he was referring to that place inside?
"The Torii gate leads to Raiden's consciousness space. Ah, did you know that there are actually two Raiden generals?" asked Yae Shinko.
Ying replied: "The priest once told me."
"That's good." Yae Shinko said, "I know very little about the real consciousness space. I only know that the real consciousness space is related to the sacred cherry tree, and is somewhat similar to the shadow's pure land. But to be specific, I don't know either."
The relationship between the sacred cherry tree and the lightning consciousness space was discovered during previous discussions. And the only result at that time was this.
Yae Shinko continued, "The real consciousness space became chaotic and disordered after Ying and the little guy entered. What is it like inside? You need to explore. However, as Ying's follower, I have a connection with her. I can send you in, and the Tianmu Ying katana in your hand can establish a connection with the little guy.
Please go in once."
"I understand." Ying nodded. "Then I'll trouble you, Lord Palace Administrator."
"Oh, why call me Lord Palace Administrator? Just call me Son of God from now on. Come, get ready, and I'll take you in, okay? Don't worry, I'll be the last line of defense outside."
Paimon said, "Will there be any danger?"
"I'm just saying this just in case. Actually, based on the little guy's personality, Ame-kun Tachi will protect you!"
"Well, let's go, Paimon." Ying made the decision.
Yae Kamiko opened the torii gate, and the color of the tunnel became more obvious. She watched Ying and Paimon enter that space.
Yae Shinko said: "Then, I'll leave it to you. For Inazuma and for me, you must work hard. Otherwise..."
Shenzi sighed.
"If this continues, the documents will pile up like a mountain. The operation of the Three Commissioners will be in trouble, right? Sigh~~~"
She pinned her lazy life on the travelers.
Chapter 442: Ritual, Completed
Genshin Impact is the name Li Mo gave to this world, just like the world of A Certain Magical Index and the world of Type-Moon.
A name is a name for a person, thing, or object. Only with a name can there be a distinction. Otherwise, how can we distinguish a bunch of things with the same characteristics?
Original God, this name doesn't seem to be anything special at first glance. But when you understand the worldview of this world, you will know what Original God is.
——People who are qualified to become gods are called "original gods". And such people often have the eyes of God.
From a human to a god. This easily reminds people of "Gnosticism". On Earth, the thoughts of the East and the West are different. Since ancient times, there have been legends in the East about cultivating to become an immortal. But in the West, the boundary between man and God is clear, man is man, angel is angel. The positions of the two on the Kabbalah tree cannot be changed.
For this reason, Gnosticism is quite unorthodox.
The history of ideas has nothing to do with Li Mo. He is just a magician who is good at borrowing and mixing.
But... the subtle thing is that he found that the "Golden Great Derivation" was too smooth in the continent of Teyvat. The spell could not be shortened, but when chanting the spell, even if the tone might not be so accurate, the situation that should have caused the "Golden Great Derivation" to be interrupted still continued.
Why is this?
After getting used to chanting the spell, Li Mo was able to divide his mind. His various attributes were at the peak of human level, but his various abilities combined with magic raised his strength by several levels. But when others had to concentrate, he could use his mystical powers to do two things at once.
First, I watched the fight between Ying and the general. The fight between the two was purely a contest of martial arts. If you think about it, a pure violent confrontation should have taken place hundreds of years ago. Neither of them could do anything to the other.
This battle was not meant to be a life-or-death battle, and even the difference in strength was not enough. This battle was Ying's confession to the general, and also a relief for his past self.
What Ying is doing now is to correct her previous decisions. In other words, she betrays her past thoughts, beliefs and actions.
This is a painful thing. Even if you know that what you did in the past was wrong, you can still deny it all. This is difficult for human emotions to accept.
The fight between the two would not affect him, so Li Mo made this judgment and began to resolve his previous doubts.
He already has an idea.
The answer is "Gnostic".
"Humans are gods in the process of being refined. As long as we continue to train ourselves and obtain the flesh of gods, we will be able to manipulate miracles at will."
This is the core concept of "Gnosticism". The worldview of the original God world coincides with this view.
Another thing that is in line with Gnosticism is alchemy. The purpose of alchemy is to transform base metals (lead) into precious metals (gold), which can also be seen as "sublimating a soul as dirty as lead into an angelic soul as golden."
"Golden Great Evolution" is the supreme magic in alchemy.
Completing the "Golden Great Evolution" in Teyvat is undoubtedly the right choice. This world welcomes humans to become gods.
After realizing this, Li Mo focused his energy on chanting spells and studying magic books.
Time flies and years pass.
How many years had passed? Li Mo didn't know.
He has his own clock inside his body, which can tell time accurately to the second. But just like a mechanical watch, over the long years, there will always be a deviation from the correct time.
