Genshin Impact, but the chat group

Yae-gami looked at the doll, which had completely returned to normal, and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

How long is this time interval?

"The sealing technique I can use won't last long, because this is the first time I've used it to seal my consciousness onto the puppet. To be on the safe side, it will need to be reinforced after a year."

"So that means it needs reinforcement once a year?"

"Yes."

"It's acceptable."

While it may seem short to say that a one-year guarantee is only possible for long-lived species, it is something that can be easily accepted by ordinary people, as it only happens once a year.

"Just treat it as a birthday celebration once a year."

Li Yue was speaking from the side.

"The seal is reinforced on a fixed date each year, but to be on the safe side, I personally recommend moving that date forward by one month, meaning that the reinforcement should be carried out every 11 months to avoid any problems."

"can!"

Lei nodded affirmatively; if there was a safer option, she would definitely choose the safest one.

"I don't think it's necessary to do that."

Yae no Miko stood up and looked at Li Yue with a smile.

"Lord Li Yue is now the Thunder God of Inazuma, and at the same time, he is also the Geo God of Liyue. You know, there are many immortals in Liyue, and many of them possess very powerful immortal arts. As the Geo God of Liyue, Lord Li Yue, it shouldn't be a problem to ask the immortals for help, right?"

The immortals of Liyue are skilled in various immortal arts, and the sealing techniques they use are naturally much stronger than those used by Yae. In the past, Yae would not have been able to ask the immortals of Liyue for help, but now it's different. Inazuma and Liyue are now one family, so he can ask Liyue for a favor!

"So that's what you were planning."

Li Yue smiled, but did not refuse.

"no problem."

359. Inazuma's Work Report

Fox Palace woke up quickly, and her consciousness and body adapted well. Fortunately, the puppet made by Shadow this time did not have any self-awareness. It was just an ordinary puppet, so it had little impact on her. If this puppet had self-awareness like Cannon, she would have been in great pain.

The world allows consciousness to match new containers, but does not allow containers to collect dissipated consciousness.

Therefore, it is much simpler to integrate Hana Sanri into the doll than to have Kosaigu's own body retract its dissipated consciousness.

However, the doll is not actually Kitsune's own body, so as Yae no Miko said, in order to prevent Kitsune's consciousness from leaving this body, the seal needs to be reinforced periodically.

Alternatively, one could directly find the Celestials of Liyue and perform a powerful seal.

This powerful sealing technique is known to many of the immortals of Liyue. For example, a famous example is Qiqi, whose immortal power was sealed within her, causing her to become an immortal zombie. Another example is Shenhe, although the seal on her was simpler, as Liuyun used a red rope to seal the evil energy within her.

Therefore, for the immortals of Liyue, this kind of seal might be very simple, and they could do it easily.

Therefore, Yae wanted Liyue to ask the immortals of Liyue for a favor, and Li Yue naturally agreed to this request very easily.

However, before returning to Liyue, Lei Yingdian, Yae, and Kosai-gu will have to wait a few more days in Inazuma, because Li Yue, the current Thunder God, will come to check on Inazuma's condition.

"The army of the Heavenly Commander has been streamlined, and all the former vagrants have been removed. The number of Heavenly Commanders is now only about two-thirds of what it used to be, but their operational efficiency is much higher than before."

Inside the castle tower, Li Yue sat in the general's seat, listening to Sara give a work report.

"So you're saying you don't lack manpower, because if you did, you wouldn't be able to achieve higher efficiency, would you?"

"Lord Thor, I need to report to you regarding manpower."

"Oh? What do you want to say?"

"I recruited Goro, a prisoner of war from Kaiji Island, into the Tenryo Magistrate's Office."

"Oh?"

Li Yue looked at Kujo with some curiosity.

Can you explain your reasons?

“I once led the army of the Heavenly Territory Enforcer in a long standoff with the army of Umijima. Although I had the advantage overall, General Goro of Umijima was also very capable in military affairs. Although the Coral Palace Shrine Maiden was behind him, he was good at leading people. So I thought it was better to use his talents for my own purposes than to waste them.”

After saying that, Sara lowered her head.

"I'm sorry for making this decision without consulting you. I'm willing to accept any punishment you may impose."

"There's no punishment involved. This is a good option. Although most of the people on Haiqi Island are said to be brainless, they are still capable. As long as you don't expect them to give you advice, just getting them to do the work is perfectly fine."

Li Yue recalled the evaluations of the two main characters on Haiqi Island: the amazing strategist with three strategies, and the battlefield general who consulted the pamphlet when in doubt.

It's really not easy to expect those two people to come up with anything good, but they're very suitable for doing things according to your ideas; they're excellent tools.

"Moreover, it's perfectly fine for Goro to be your assistant; you don't need to worry about him causing any problems."

Goro is a Umiji, while the Tenryo Magistrate is entirely composed of Inatsuma people. Due to the defeat of Umiji Island, although the current policy is to make Umiji Island a complete part of Inatsuma, the Umiji are currently considered inferior to the Inatsuma people.

Goro becoming Sara's deputy will definitely displease most of the Tenryo magistrates, but precisely because of this displeasure, Goro will be isolated. An isolated person cannot cause trouble, and if he tries to cause trouble, a lot of people will be watching him.

"Just make sure his position is established, and ensure that those who follow the Heavenly Order are not allowed to disobey. They must carry out your orders, or they will be severely punished."

"Yes! Thank you, Lord Thor."

Sara happily expressed her gratitude to Li Yue.

After listening to Sara's report, Li Yue looked to the other side, at Hisaki Shinobu, the current head of the Kansei Magistrate.

Kuki Shinobu was still wearing her ninja outfit, but over it she wore a haori with the words "Commander-in-Chief of the Kansei Magistrate" written on it. This garment was clearly made by Arataki Ichito, and it was full of Arataki Ichito's style. Not only Kuki Shinobu was wearing a haori, but every member of the Arataki faction behind her was also wearing a haori, but the words on them were different. Behind Arataki Ichito's haori was "Captain of the Kansei Magistrate's Security Brigade", and behind the other Arataki faction members was "Kansei Magistrate's Security Brigade".

As city management officers, they know how to have fun. Kuki Shinobu is probably just playing along with them out of necessity. After all, if Araki Ichito doesn't create something, he wouldn't be Araki Ichito.

"Lord Thor, after reopening trade as you requested, we have resumed trade with Liyue. The World Merchant Guild can also operate normally, and the number of merchant ships entering and leaving the islands has returned to the normal level before the country closed off. However, tax revenue has not yet been fully restored. In order to restore commerce, I have temporarily opened some tax incentive policies."

"There's no problem with the tax incentive policy. We need to let the economy recover first, and then we can collect enough taxes. There's no rush."

"As for diplomacy, I asked my senior sister in Liyue Harbor for help. Since Inazuma and Liyue are now one family, but Inazuma is quite far from Liyue, I asked her to act as an intermediary to contact the Seven Stars in Liyue Harbor. However, my senior sister told me that I could just talk to her directly, so we are currently discussing the issue of unified action on policies between Inazuma and Liyue through correspondence."

The senior sister from Liyue Harbor, that should be Yanfei. Although Yanfei's combat power isn't very high, she's a half-immortal. Under Li Yue's arrangement, she's now one of the Seven Martial Immortals, and her status is even higher than the Seven Stars. Indeed, finding her is enough.

"As for the businesses within Inazuma, since we seized enough property from the Kanjuro (Minister of State Affairs), I'm using that money to allow local merchants to obtain some funds from the Kanjuro through interest-free loans to do business. Since we can't give them the money directly, but we can still let them get the money, this is the best way. At least this way, their burden won't be so heavy."

"Yes, you did a great job. It was definitely the right decision to choose you as the magistrate."

Li Yue was very satisfied with Jiuqi Ren's actions: reducing taxes to temporarily boost trade, and then providing interest-free loans domestically to allow Inazuma merchants who had been exploited to rise again.

"Next up is Narukami Taisha."

Li Yue looked at the last person, Kamisato Ryouka, who represented Narukami Taisha. Since Narukami Taisha had replaced the previous shrine minister, it was now handling matters related to rituals. Naturally, the person in charge of this matter within Narukami Taisha was Kamisato Ryouka, who had been brought over by Yae.

"Reporting to Lord Thor, preparations for the first summer festival after the restoration of normalcy are underway, and it can be held as soon as the appointed day arrives."

Li Yue nodded in satisfaction. The tasks of the community were the easiest, since there were only a few sacrificial ceremonies a year.

"Okay, is there anything that needs to be resolved?"

After listening to the work report, it's time to ask questions.

"There are no problems with the investigation and implementation for the time being."

"There are no problems with Narukami Taisha for the time being."

"There are no problems with the Tianling Envoy's side either."

"Since there are no problems, let's continue at the current pace."

360. Zhongli, come and kowtow to the Dragon King Ruotu.

Inazuma's work report ended quickly, because they were all newly appointed, so Li Yue wasn't worried that they would fake it or be outwardly compliant but inwardly disobedient.

Sara is a loyal follower of Ray Movie, so she would never betray Ray Movie. Although Ray Movie is no longer Thor, he is still one of the high-ranking members of Inazuma, so being loyal to Inazuma is being loyal to Ray Movie.

Hisaki Shinobu's personality is such that she either doesn't do something or does it to the best of her ability. And Arataki Ichito, who is behind her, acts based on intuition. This kind of idiot who acts on intuition is the least likely to engage in scheming and intrigue.

However, while they all said that Inazuma had no problems, there were actually some issues.

This problem concerns the Fuchishita Palace beneath Haigi Island.

The Abyss Palace is connected to the Sea God Island, which is essentially part of the Teyvat continent. However, that place is quite ancient, existing since the time Tenri arrived in Teyvat. It was later destroyed by war and fell underground, where it avoided the Demon God War, but also encountered the great serpent Obaros.

After spending many years underground with the Sea Spirits, Obaros came to the surface because of their thoughts and what they thought they shouldn't have seen.

The Sea Spirits followed Obaros to the surface. Even though all the Sea Spirits had come to the surface, the Abyss Palace still existed, and the huge underground space still existed. Moreover, because of the Abyss Palace, Sea Spirit Island was constantly being turned into sacred land. To solve the problem of sacred land turning into sacred land and make the land of Sea Spirit Island cultivable, it was necessary to enter the Abyss Palace.

Unfortunately, Li Yue did not intend to go to Guan Yuanxia Palace. Including the previous attack by Obaros, Haiqi Island had rebelled against Inazuma twice in a row. The first rebellion resulted in the loss of relatives and friends by Lei Yingdian, but in return, Haiqi Island was completely disobedient. In the second rebellion, Li Yue acted swiftly and decisively, forcing Haiqi Island to surrender. In fact, many of Haiqi Island's soldiers died due to Lei Yingdian's attack, resulting in Haiqi Island's temporary surrender.

But who knows if Haizhi Island will betray us a third time?

I have been betrayed three times. (Image)

Therefore, Li Yue plans to make it impossible for Haiqi Island to grow food forever. By controlling the food supply on Haiqi Island, he will control its population. Want to live a good life? Sure, come to Narugami Island to work and earn money to buy food! Moreover, all the shrine maidens of Coral Palace have been brought to Narugami Island, effectively eliminating Coral Palace altogether.

After confirming that Haiqi Island was completely garrisoned and could not cause any trouble, Li Yue returned to Liyue.

Lei Yingdian didn't return to Liyue because Fox Palace had woken up and needed some time to adjust. Not only did Lei Yingdian not return to Liyue, but even Raiden Shin stayed in Inazuma. After Raiden Shin was released, he had been playing around. This time, after Fox Palace was resurrected, Li Yue opened the gate to return to Li Yue and also brought Raiden Shin to Inazuma so that the Raiden sisters could have a proper reunion with Fox Palace.

"Not going to Fontainebleau."

"Huh? Why not go to Fontainebleau? Father, didn't you say you were going to Fontainebleau?"

Narcida, back in Liyue, asked Li Yue in confusion, "Before, in front of me, Li Yue told Charlotte that she would go to Fontaine, but now she says she's not going."

"It's not that we don't want to go to Fontainebleau, it's that we don't want to go to Fontainebleau now."

Li Yue stroked Naxi Da's head as she explained.

“We’ve already asked Charlotte to tell the water god that I’ll be visiting him, but we haven’t told her when I’ll be visiting, have we?”

"Yes, Father did not say when to visit."

Nasida nodded, recalling what Li Yue had said earlier.

“That’s right, I deliberately didn’t tell her when I was going to visit her.”

"But Father said that the flooding in Fontaine was very serious and would endanger all the countries of Teyvat?"

Nasita was quite concerned about the danger posed by the rising waters in Fontaine to the entire country of Teyvat.

"The rising waters in Fontaine will indeed threaten all the countries in Teyvat, but it's not time yet, so we're not in a hurry."

How long will it take Huang Mao to get to Fontainebleau? Li Yue has only been in Teyvat for a few months now, why is he in such a hurry to go to Fontainebleau? There's still time.

"So what do we do next?"

"Let's take care of things on our own turf first."
