It's as if it's saying, "Doesn't this scene look familiar?"

"what do you mean?"

The first senior scholar from the Academy to emerge also felt a sense of foreboding, because Su Hao's tone had become somewhat unfriendly.

Everyone present was intelligent, and they quickly guessed why Su Hao had said those things.

"You wouldn't possibly..."

At this moment, Kavi couldn't hold back any longer. He tried to speak up, but was grabbed by Elhesen and silenced by physical means.

"Waaaaah!!!" Kavi could only make "uh-uh-uh" sounds; he couldn't do anything else.

“That’s right, my meaning is very clear.” Su Hao looked at the group of scholars from the Order Academy in front of him, and his voice gradually turned cold as he said, “I questioned the head of the Heavenly Territory, Kujo Takayuki, back then.”

"Now I will pass these words on to you as well, and ask you, scholars of the Order of the Church, is Mount Sumeru determined by you or by the gods?"

"And, watching those dead citizens of Sumeru perish because of the so-called god-making plan, you are pleading for the [murderer]?"

"What's wrong? Your lives are precious, but what about the lives of those who died in the God-Making Project experiments? Aren't they worth mentioning?"

"Is everything the leader's fault? Where is your knowledge? Where is your wisdom? Are you mute? Are you pretending not to see?"

"Or are you scholars from the Order of the Church, rather than scholars of Sumeru?!"

As these words were spoken, some scholars who had originally stood up for their friends now looked ashamed.

Even some of the older scholars changed their expressions drastically when they heard Su Hao ask, "Are you scholars of the Order Academy or scholars of Sumeru?"

These words are truly hurtful. It's as if they're saying that the Order of the Fathers are arrogant and don't understand the meaning of being Sumeru people.

As everyone knows, although the Order Academy is a school, almost everyone in it comes from all over Sumeru.

Most of those who come from other countries to study come to learn knowledge and wisdom, and then take these things back to their own countries.

After all, on the continent of Teyvat, people have an unimaginably strong faith in their own gods.

Farusan looked somewhat ashamed, because she had almost stood up to speak for her juniors.

But did they almost forget that their lives matter, while the lives of others can be ignored?

As he said this, Su Hao took a step forward, and his majestic divine power erupted from his body once again, along with a burst of emerald green light.

The next instant, the phantom of the Great Compassionate Tree King, formed from Su Hao's power, appeared before the scholars of the Order Academy.

This shocked the scholars of the Order of the Church, who immediately sensed something was wrong and knew that things were unlikely to end well.

"In the name of the Great Compassion Tree King," Su Hao said coldly, his gaze sweeping over the people before him. "You can swear that you were unaware of the God-Making Plan and were forced into it, to prove your innocence."

"Of course, you can lie against your conscience, but the Great Tree King is watching you!!!"

The scholars of the Academy lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the phantom of the Great Tree King.

Even knowing that this was the Great Compassion Tree King formed from Su Hao's power, its majestic divine might and the wise gaze of the Great Compassion Tree King were still impressive.

The scholars of the Council of Gods dared not look directly at this god of wisdom.

They know in their hearts what they did in the god-making project, but... once they admit it, they will face the death penalty.

Thinking of this, someone shakily raised his hand. He looked at the phantom of the Great Tree King and said in a trembling voice, "I didn't know about the God-Making Project. I was forced to join it. I had no idea that this experiment would kill people!"

He seemed to be on the verge of collapse, like a drowning person grasping at a last straw.

"You're lying."

Nasita's eyes gleamed with a green light. She looked at the other person and said calmly, "You are the one in charge of adjusting the energy of the God of the Righteous. He once remarked that the energy collection plan was completed with only a few deaths."

"This is much easier than I imagined."

As she said this, Nasita waved her hand slightly, and under the emerald green light, a projection screen appeared, showing the person who had first confessed.

He was currently sipping wine and enjoying delicious food, discussing with other scholars whether, if the god-making plan succeeded, the newly born god would bestow upon them entirely new knowledge upon the Academy.

"!!!!!!!!!"

Upon seeing this scene, the scholar who had confessed turned deathly pale and collapsed to the ground.

Not only him, but the scholars who appeared in the projection also turned pale. They hadn't expected the other party to lie and expose them directly.

Most of the scholars also had very interesting expressions. They looked at Nasita with awe and fear. What was originally her lack of authority seemed to be stretched infinitely in their eyes.

This is the deity, this is the Little Auspicious Grass King.

Even the weakest demon god is beyond the comprehension of mortals.

"Disciplinary officer, arrest him."

Sino said calmly, giving the scholar no chance whatsoever, and had the disciplinary officer arrest him.

The discipline officers had also come to their senses. They knew that things were really about to change today, but as discipline officers, they had to maintain order.

Therefore, two discipline officers came out and took the scholar, who was slumped on the ground, away.

"Let me go! Let me go!! What did I do wrong!!! This is a god-making plan!!! A grand plan to change Sumeru!!! Ah!!!! Hazar!!!!"

The scholar roared as Hazard painted a rosy picture of the future after the god-making project succeeded, for him, or rather for them.

But this future is not bright; instead, it is a desperate situation that will drive people into the abyss.

Hearing the scholar's roar, Hazard remained silent, instead staring intently at the phantom of the Great Tree King.

There was a time when, looking at the image of the Great Tree King, he was filled with a longing for wisdom and a deep respect for this benevolent god of wisdom.

Now, he was about to face judgment under her gaze.

No, that's not right. It's not a trial. Everyone else's fate is uncertain, but my fate has already been sealed.

Chapter 359 The Great Compassionate Tree King: "Why don't you become the acting Grass God?"

The trial began, and under pressure from Su Hao, Nasita was tasked with using her powers to determine whether the other party was lying.

The purpose of this trip is twofold: to establish Nasida's authority and to let the Church know what Azhar and his associates have done.

As the Little Auspicious Grass King of Sumeru, she can be approachable, but she must also be dignified, because she has been ignored too much by her subjects.

In Sumeru, not many people even know of the existence of the Little Auspicious Grass King; everyone only knows of the Great Compassion Tree King.

Even if Nasita is very approachable and considerate, who can truly understand the mercy of the gods?

Therefore, the following plan was devised. People do not know how to be grateful, but all the wise men in the Academy know how to be grateful.

With their wisdom, they should be able to understand that if Nasita had not been so kind, how could she have tolerated being imprisoned by a group of humans for five hundred years?

Over these five hundred years, Nasita had many opportunities to corrupt the scholars of the Church.

After all, all she has to do is say, "I, Little Lucky Grass King, get me out of the Pure Goodness Palace, and you will be the next Great Sage!"

This statement means the same thing: I, Qin Shi Huang, will pay you to be appointed as a general.

Don't say it's impossible; Teyvat is a land where gods reign supreme.

If Nasita really wanted to figure it out, she had many options. She could even just officially announce that she, the Little Auspicious Grass King, would no longer protect Sumeru.

So Sumeru is a godless kingdom, and everyone knows how miserable the fate of a godless kingdom was on the continent of Teyvat.

Everyone has divine protection, but you don't, unless you're like the people of Kyria, with highly advanced technology and a strong military.

Otherwise, without divine protection, Sumeru would certainly be inferior to others from the outset.

Some even mocked Sumeru, arguing that without gods, how could Sumeru be called a land of wisdom?

So Nasita wasn't without ways to deal with them; rather, she was genuinely kind. God loves people, but people don't necessarily love God.

Therefore, the Great Tree King specifically proposed this plan in the chat group, which Nasita initially resisted.

But the Great Tree King was resolute, stating that the guilty must be brought to justice, and that Naxida, as the Grass Goddess, could not allow anyone whose hands were stained with the blood of others to go unpunished.

Love is equal; it is not about ignoring the sins committed by someone just because they are of high value.

If all the members of the entire Order of the Church participated in this massacre, then the Great Tree King would also choose to annihilate them all.

Although this would render the Church of Christendom effectively defunct, it was an inevitable choice.

The logic is simple: if the person involved is not punished, he might tell his successor to feel free to conduct experiments.

I committed such a serious crime back then and I survived, so you'll definitely be fine too.

Sino agreed with this, saying that there will always be scholars who are complacent and believe that what they are doing is correct, and who will use a lot of excuses to continue their experiments.

In reality, they create a mess that they can't solve themselves, so they have to let others clean it up.

The scholars are happy, but their experiments failed and others have to bear the consequences. Is that reasonable? Absolutely not.

The current god-making project is just like this: a group of people died because of this project, and the death of only a few sages means that nothing ever happened.

Are those scholars who participated in the deification project truly innocent? Were they really completely unaware?

Therefore, Naxida cooperated with Su Hao and began a serious trial.

Su Hao was in charge of suppressing the rebellion, given his status as the next Thor and his terrifying strength comparable to that of a demon god.

No one could oppose him; the knowledge and wisdom that the Church of Jesus was so proud of had no effect on him.

As for Nasita, needless to say, she is the goddess of grass; who would dare to speak ill of her?

However… there is one thing Su Hao was right about: the Great Compassion Tree King is indeed watching the scholars of Sumeru today.

She watched the trial via live stream in the group chat, sighing more than once.

[The Great Tree King: "Alas, the Order of the Fathers is truly in a state of disarray these days."]

[The Great Compassion Tree King: "How could this be? It's only been five hundred years, and there are already so many scholars..."]

[King Ruoduo: "Don't sigh. This is normal. After all, not all kingdoms are like Liyue."]

[Nagarjuna: "Hahahahahahaha!!!"]

[Raiden Shin: "Those familiar words."]

[Lei Movie: "Yes, it's very familiar, it's like the last time it appeared was when I first joined the group half a year ago."]

[Sino: "The atmosphere within the Council of Disciplinary Officers did indeed begin to change more than two hundred years ago, and we, the Disciplinary Officers, have been doing our utmost to stop it."]

[Sino: "But the effect wasn't very good; in the end, even the disciplinary officer couldn't judge the students of the Sage lineage."]

[Yura: "Hmm? I can understand not being able to judge a sage, but why can't we even judge a student?"]
