Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

This evidence is sufficient to prove that the deceased sages and scholars possessed a great deal of Mora, as well as valuable jewels, antiquities, and other items in their homes.

It even contains evidence of scholars collaborating with the Fools and the Gilded Brigade.

All it takes is for Su Hao to give the order, and have Seno lead the disciplinary officers, or send the core members of the thirty-man group, to raid the house.

So, while the current deficit problem of the Order of the Church may not be completely solved, it can at least give people a much-needed respite.

Su Hao didn't dwell on how these pieces of evidence came about, because the scholars of the Order Academy were all intelligent people.

Before the god-making plan came about, there must have been internal strife and infighting among them.

Otherwise, why would such an excellent scholar as Tinari be disappointed with the current Church and thus leave the city to become a forest ranger?

Therefore, the fact that they possess so much evidence of crimes suggests that it was premeditated. The reason they didn't bring it out before was because those people hadn't been brought down at the time.

The scholars whom Nasita tried were high-ranking and powerful figures within the Church at that time.

They were either outstanding scholars, confidants of wise men, or veterans like Farusian.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to participate in the god-making plan. The high-ranking members of the Church who didn't participate in the god-making plan were all imprisoned.

Although confiscating property has always been the best way to amass wealth, these people had already been executed when Nasita conducted her trial.

Regardless of the circumstances, the dead should be respected. Isn't it a bit too much to take such actions after they have passed away?

Secondly, and finally, the last plan was for the scholars, led by Nafis, to sell what they had researched throughout their lives.

The wise men and renowned scholars of the Academy could sell the things they have studied throughout their lives for unimaginably high prices.

It's believed that any country would contact Nafis and his group, asking how much Mora they would be willing to sell these items to.

Although the wisdom of Sumeru has not progressed for five hundred years, the research conducted by the scholars of the Academy is extremely popular in various countries.

Putting aside everything else, the scholars of Sumeru and the technicians of Fontaine are renowned throughout the continent of Teyvat.

Many scholars of Sumeru abroad have assisted various countries with numerous tasks, so one can imagine how many valuable things they possess.

If all these things are sold, then the deficit caused by the god-making project will probably disappear.

The previous points were all future plans, but the last two—confiscating property and selling research items—made Su Hao particularly hesitant. These were no longer matters he could decide.

Su Hao told the Great Tree King and Nasita about Nafis's plan to see what they thought about it.

Seeing Su Hao's appearance, Nafis calmly said, "It's alright, we'll bear all the blame."

“I will publicly declare in the name of the sage that I did all of this.”

"It is only your token that I can use to gain the assistance of the Disciplinary Officer and the Thirty-Man Group. I am old and cannot pass on the troubles at hand to the next generation."

"Furthermore, what we are studying is not anything valuable. If these can salvage the losses of the God-Making Project, it would be a good thing for the Council of the Church."

Clearly, this is the result of discussions among the scholars.

Using their wisdom and insight, they devised this plan to resolve the deficit crisis of the god-making project as quickly as possible.

May the brand-new Sumeru welcome the return of the Lesser Auspicious Grass King and the Greater Compassion Tree King.

Otherwise, if the gods were to take full control of the matter, a merciful god would never do so, because even an "outsider god" like Su Hao showed a hesitant expression.

One can only imagine how much of a headache this matter must have been for the benevolent Little Lucky Grass King and the Great Compassion Tree King.

Having anticipated this, Nafis and the scholars immediately made the decision.

"…………"

Su Hao remained silent, waiting for the Great Compassion Tree King and Naxida's response. If they objected, then he would object as well.

But Su Hao felt this was a necessary choice because there was a simple reason: he wanted to change the current state of Sumeru and the Order Academy.

Mora is essential. Mora may not be a panacea, but you absolutely cannot do without it.

All plans require Mora's support. The times are no longer like they were back then, when faith and having enough to eat were enough.

Perhaps there are noble people within Sumeru who are willing to selflessly dedicate themselves, but these are only a minority.

The same situation occurred in Inazuma six months ago. Due to the arbitrary actions of the Tenryō and Kanjō officials, Inazuma suffered from a loss of talent and a lack of funds.

If it weren't for Yae no Kamiko secretly maintaining a certain level of control, and with Lei Yingdian and the Puppet General suppressing things from above...

In addition, Raiden had already made plans to restore Inazuma long ago.

So, Inazuma's fate back then was probably no better than Sumeru's.

The biggest problem with Sumeru was that the voices of those in power and the top leadership were united, and they worked together to inject a great deal of funds and resources into the god-making project.

Otherwise, given the Academy's ability to attract funds, it wouldn't have led to this embarrassing situation.

The Great Tree King replied quickly, though this time she was noticeably slower, something she clearly hadn't expected.

The sage Nafis would actually make such a bold decision.

Are you really ready?

Su Hao looked at the elderly sage Nafis and said, "I am not a Sumeru person, but an outsider who came to help at the request of the Great Compassion Tree King."

"You can leave the money-making scheme to me, and I'll bear all the infamy. You know you'll probably be retiring in a few years."

"If you carry out this plan at this critical juncture, you will likely face unimaginable infamy, and countless people will become your enemies."

If Hazard and the other sages and scholars had not died, then the plan to plunder their property would have been perfectly justified.

But now that the person is dead, if you conduct a reckoning afterward, it will seem to others that you are trying to wipe them out completely.

Nasita must have known about the deficit in the Faith Council; as the Little Lucky Grass King, she naturally had firsthand information.

She must have been very troubled by this problem at the time, but even so, she did not think of confiscating the property or selling the scholars' research items and results to make up for this loophole.

She was simply using her wisdom to slowly fill this huge gap, and she even spent an entire night preparing a ten-year plan for it.

This is why Nasita was so tired before entering the World Tree.

There were too many things to do, and she had no other choice but to slowly fill this huge hole.

It is believed that Nafis also saw the ten-year plan, but he was unwilling to wait ten years and instead intended to resolve the matter as quickly as possible.

While this method is highly efficient and can generate a large amount of Mora in a very short time, the cost is also quite high.

At the very least, Nafis and the scholars who took the blame will be hated even if the Great Tree King speaks in the future.

Nafis understood what Su Hao meant, but he nodded seriously and said without complaint, "Our generation has made mistakes, and we should bear the consequences."

"Instead of leaving the responsibility to the gods and the next generation, this is our collective requirement, and also... a kind of atonement."

At this point, Nafis sighed. Some things you can fool others about, but you can't fool yourself.

Although these people did not agree with the god-making plan, their attitude towards the Little Lucky Grass King was the same as that of Azar and the others.

The Church Council imprisoned the Little Auspicious Grass King for five hundred years, causing the Great Compassion Tree King plan to fail and exacerbating the crisis facing the World Tree.

Their self-righteous actions by the Church ultimately required the help of successors to the gods of other countries to resolve the issue.

Now that they finally have a chance to atone for their sins and do something, if Su Hao takes it away from them, then they will truly have accomplished nothing.

"Ok."

Su Hao nodded in agreement and didn't say anything more.

Nafis smiled slightly and handed the plan documents to Su Hao.

Later, Su Hao also took out his token and handed it to Nafis, allowing him to mobilize the disciplinary officers and the thirty-man group to assist him in his work.

"Do you need me to find you a good merchant regarding what you're researching?" Su Hao said casually after handing the items to Nafis. "Liyue Seven Stars, Inazuma Three Magistrates, Mondstadt Knights of Favonius."

"If you're willing, I can even connect you with the Fools. Although the Winter's group isn't great in many ways, they're certainly not short of funds."

Su Hao didn't criticize the Fools of Winter because, in terms of funds, the Fools' Mora had skyrocketed after they had the rich man as their executive officer.

There are reasons why the Fool's Enforcers, such as Tartaglia, the Lady, and the Skirmisher, are never short of funds.

However, Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma are not lacking in funds.

In Mondstadt, both Jean and Diluc have Mora, and the Knights of Favonius are not lacking in Mora either.

Not to mention Liyue, that place is the origin of Mora and the richest country in Teyvat!

On Inazuma's side, after half a year of recuperation, Sanbugyo and Yae no Miko will certainly be very happy to pay for the research of these scholars.

"If it's alright, I'd appreciate it if you could introduce them, but I'll pass on the Winter Solstice side." Nafis agreed, but shook his head at the Fools.

Nafis had not forgotten what the Fools had done, and he would rather destroy what they had been researching than sell it to the Fools!

After a brief discussion with Su Hao about the details, Nafis also left the office.

"It's not easy for people here in Sumeru either."

Watching Nafis's departing figure, Su Hao sighed, feeling the heavy weight of the documents in his hands.

This reform of Sumeru was even more brutal and severe than that of Inazuma.

In contrast, the Inazuma Reform was relatively minor. Although it seemed to cause a great stir, everything was actually resolved as soon as General Raiden intervened.

On the other hand, Sumeru still needs a bloody reform before things can get better.

“Yes.” Farusan watched Nafis’s departing figure and couldn’t help but sigh, “But he truly deserves the title of sage.”

"Bearing the sins upon himself, he paved a bright future for Sumeru, but the price was the complete destruction of his lifelong reputation."

Farusan felt a pang of emotion, but she also knew that this was a situation the people of Sumeru had to face.

Someone always has to be the bad guy. Su Hao originally planned to do it himself, but Nafis said that it should be done by the old people of the Church.

Instead of having Su Hao, the next Thunder God who rescued the Little Auspicious Grass King and assisted in the reform of Sumeru, play the villain.

“zzzzzz~~~~”

At that moment, a steady breathing sound rang out.

Su Hao and Farusan looked over at the same time and found that Laiira had fallen asleep at some point.

Coral Palace Heart Sea chuckled to herself, "What did I say? She's asleep, isn't she?"

"Ah~"

But soon, Laila seemed to wake up. She opened her eyes and looked like a different person, smiling at everyone and saying, "It seems the child is too tired and has fallen asleep."

"Well then, I'll be in charge of helping everyone with this now. Hmm... let me see what it is next?"

Coral Palace Heart Sea looked at the now-awakened Laiira and her rather lively tone, blinked, her eyes filled with doubt.
