Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

Momo nodded and said, "There's no other way. The reward is too generous. It's willing to let the whole world be our support and foundation. Of course, we can't just take everything in the world at will."

"Such a generous reward... But if that's the case, what exactly is the task that the world consciousness gave to Dad, or what it wants Dad to do?"

Momo didn't answer immediately. Instead, he placed his finger on his eyes, sensing the presence of Geass, and said, "Yui, what exactly do you think a Code Holder is?"

"The existence of Code holders...humans cursed by the world's consciousness?"

Mo Mo smiled slightly and said, "Then, let me explain it to you, and then you can make your own connections."

"A collective consciousness of the world, capable of influencing matter and spirit, existing independently of the world and the timeline; an independent space, existing between the world consciousness and the real world, which only Code can enter; Code is a person chosen by the world consciousness, who signs a contract with the world consciousness because of their wishes, and whose body is fixed at the moment of signing the contract, thus becoming a special existence that transcends humanity."

Mo Mo's smile grew even brighter as she said, "Now, do you understand?"

Yui suddenly widened her eyes, and the girls watching the live stream in Valhalla had the same expression. They all uttered the same word at the same time.

"Heroic spirits!"

"That's right, they are Heroic Spirits!"

"The world consciousness of Code Geass is like a young Alaya, only its power is too weak, and it mainly controls the mind. The Code holders are the Heroic Spirits it chooses, granting them eternal life so that they can interfere with the course of human history."

Mo Mo pinched his chin and continued, "Perhaps this is a poor imitation of the world consciousness of this world, but it should be more of an instinct. As the Alaya consciousness, the collective consciousness of humanity, it turned around and tried to interfere with human instincts after its birth."

"instinct?"

"That's right, instinct. World consciousness itself is a collection of human consciousness. In fact, it is related to humans in terms of appearance and essence, and may even be different parts of the same huge life form. World consciousness is the subconscious, and every human being is a cell of this huge life form. Therefore, after the birth of world consciousness, it naturally hopes that humans can develop better and avoid all the great disasters."

"Next, the world's consciousness will naturally do something, but the world's consciousness cannot directly interfere with humanity. It needs an agent that can embody its will, namely, heroic spirits. Heroic spirits are responsible for helping humanity avoid disasters, eliminating factors that affect the progress of humanity, and protecting humanity from destruction."

"This is what Alaya did, this is how it is in the Fate world, and this is also the general goal of our group."

Yui nodded and said, "But why has the world of Code Geass become like this? Is it because the world consciousness of this world is too weak?"

"That's one reason, but another important reason is that the power of consciousness in this world is weak, which leads to a lack of intelligence. It is completely incomparable to the Alaya and Gaia of other worlds."

"It had the idea of ​​helping humanity in return, and it did just that. The problem is, it did too much. Do you know what it did?"

Yui pouted and said, "Daddy, stop keeping me in suspense!"

"Alright, alright, I'll tell you then. It turns out that within the world consciousness of Code Geass, many of the great figures who turned the tide of war in various countries throughout history were Geass holders, with Code holders interspersed among them. This world consciousness directly interferes with the course of world history, hoping to guide it towards a better world."

Yui's mouth dropped open. "Chuunibyou?" she exclaimed.

Artoria's lips twitched inside Valhalla, wondering if she had been shot.

"It's a pity that if the current world consciousness had chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), it would be a good thing. At least chuunibyou is half an adult, with a complete individual consciousness, and knows what's important. They're just prone to getting carried away with their emotions. Unfortunately, the current world consciousness is completely interfering with human history at will based on its feelings."

"You might not even imagine that something like Sakura Stone is a miracle product that only appeared under the intervention of the world's consciousness."

"what!"

Yui exclaimed in surprise, "Sakuraishi, is this possible...?"

"At first I was also very skeptical, but now I'm sure that the current world's consciousness is so weak because it forcibly took technologies and products belonging to the future into the past, forming the special mineral Sakura Stone."

"According to the information it gave me, future humans will experience a long technological dark period due to technological limitations. This dark period will last for more than a thousand years. It will not be until a thousand years later, when the artificial superconducting metal Sakurastone is born, that humanity will enter a new era in history."

"This naive world consciousness believes that by directly transforming the minerals from the past into cherry stone, humanity can make rapid progress and avoid that dark period."

"As a result, it has now exhausted its power and can no longer even manage the holders of Geass or communicate with the holders of Code. The holders of Code have lost the ability to communicate with the world's consciousness. Since the birth of Sakura Stone in history, it has been left to its own devices and has forgotten its identity and responsibilities as a Heroic Spirit."

Mo Mo raised his head and looked at the roaring fleet of warships in the distance, saying, "Without the guidance of the world's consciousness, the holders of the Code are like believers who have lost their gods, completely lost and directionless. The first generation of Code holders were alright, they were still able to avoid confusion, but the later generations of Code holders have completely regarded the Code as a curse."

"By the time it comes to CC, there probably hasn't been a single dialogue between CC and the world consciousness. CC won't do it proactively, nor does it know that it should do it, and the world consciousness has also lost the ability to do so."

Upon hearing this, Yui was dumbfounded, because what Momo was talking about was the fundamental reason why the rebellious world of Code Geass differed from the history and development of the previous two worlds.

The root cause is that the world consciousness of this world acted arbitrarily and ended up going too far.

"So, Dad, is the world's consciousness's requirement of you simply to put the whole world on the right track?"

Mission 025: Change the world!

“That’s about right,” Momo replied. “The key issue is still with Cherry Stone.”

"Even in a history that should have developed normally, Sakurastone was used as a rare material a thousand years later. The most crucial factor is its superconducting properties, and superconducting materials produced from Sakurastone became the cornerstone of human technology in the next era."

Momo turned to look at the Knightmare guarding the distance and said, "However, the Sakura Stone resource, which was created by the world consciousness expending all its power to bring technology from the future and modify it, has actually become the fuel for Knightmare in the current Code Geass world. In the future, Sakura Stone will be priceless, not to mention fuel, even if it is turned into powder, as it will be the core of the world's industry and technology."

"The Industrial Revolution in the world of Code Gems was entirely driven by the discovery of Sakura Stone. After simple purification and production, Sakura Stone could generate electricity and heat, which allowed the Chinese Federation in this world to directly enter the electric age in 1608 AD without any knowledge of it."

"At that time, the people of the Chinese Federation even thought it was a success of alchemy."

"As for coal and oil, which should have been discovered and used extensively, they became icing on the cake."

Momo turned his head and continued to look at the vaguely visible naval army. He then said, "Next, the whole world began to make great use of Sakura Stone. Sakura Stone power plants, Sakura Stone electric engines, Sakura Stone-powered cars and trains, and now Sakura Stone-powered airplanes, Knightmare, and even the aerial fortresses and ground bases that will appear later, are all centered around Sakura Stone."

"In modern times, cherry blossom powder has been used as an additive to create various composite materials, bringing the whole world into the electronic information age. Scientists all over the world are studying and focusing on cherry blossom. As long as cherry blossom is available, it seems that all technology is just around the corner."

"In the later stages of Code Geass, all sorts of advanced technologies, such as energy weapons, laser weapons, electromagnetic weapons, and even the Goddess of Love, which is comparable to our world's nuclear weapons, are all inseparable from the support of Sakura Stone."

"But how can a vast world, with its entire technological system built upon a product of pure fantasy, rely on Sakura Stone? Isn't that ironic?"

At this point, a sneer appeared on Mo Mo's lips as he said, "In the current world of Code Geass, the technology tree is completely distorted. All technological development is rooted in Sakura Stones. The massive consumption of Sakura Stones would probably shock future humans. And this Sakura Stone technology is supported by Sakura Stones created by the world's consciousness."

"However, the power of the world consciousness has been exhausted. The current amount of Sakura Stones is the limit of the entire Code Geass world. Once these Sakura Stones are used up, the future of Code Geass world will inevitably be an even darker and longer night."

"After all, human technology was originally capable of establishing a complete and mutually substitutable technological network. However, the appearance of Sakura Stone has made the current technology of the entire world a large tree with Sakura Stone as its trunk. Once Sakura Stone is exhausted, the technology of this world may even have to start all over again from the nascent era of the Industrial Revolution."

"Sakura Stone is a good thing. It can replace many materials and save humanity a lot of trouble. The world consciousness probably also wants to help humanity progress quickly, but it has overlooked one point: humanity's laziness and greed have made humanity completely dependent on Sakura Stone, and it will never think about any substitutes for Sakura Stone."

"However, this enormous technological system is on the verge of collapse, and all of humanity remains completely unaware of it."

Yui understood. She understood what the world consciousness of Code Geass's rebellious world was worried about. If the technological system centered on Sakura Stone truly collapsed, and humanity returned to the era of the Industrial Revolution, or even the agricultural era, could humans, accustomed to modern society, continue to survive?

Even if they survive, can the world return to its current level of civilization?

All of this is unknown, and all of this is the result of the world consciousness acting on its own initiative and interfering too much with the overall process of the world.

"I understand. The world consciousness wants Dad to help the whole world break free from its dependence on Sakura Stone, right? But won't this task be too difficult?"

Mo Mo shook his head and said, "Not only that, the world consciousness wants me to ensure its safety and prevent the holders of these Codes from continuing to act recklessly. However, there is no need to worry too much about this, since the Egg Roll Emperor still has seven years before he can fully complete the system."

"As for reintroducing the entire world into the scientific system we are familiar with..."

Mo Mo smiled slightly and said, "The task seems arduous, but it is not our own task. Perhaps Britannia, which has Japan as a resource-producing region, is not interested in this non-Sakura Stone scientific system, but the Chinese Federation, which lacks Sakura Stone, should be very interested in this scientific system that can benefit everyone."

"That's good. I originally thought we were just traveling in this world, but now we have a slightly challenging task, which will keep us from being too idle."

"Seven years... Let's see how far we can go in seven years!"

……

Gao Hai, his face grim, waited with his men at a temporary airport in Tokyo for the plane to arrive.

After completely occupying Japan and confirming the untimely death of Japanese Prime Minister Gentoo Kururugi, the Britannian army declared the occupation of Japan and renamed it Area 11. This action completely ignored the ongoing fighting throughout Japan, but this was typical Britannian behavior, and it also demonstrated Britannia's confidence in quickly resolving the conflict.

"boom!"

However, Gao Hai's heart still trembled as he listened to the occasional explosions coming from both near and far. The retreat of the Japanese army did not mean the disappearance of the Japanese resistance forces; at present, the entire city of Tokyo was still embroiled in urban warfare between the Britannian army and the resistance fighters.

Gao Hai is currently in a relatively safe area in the rear of Britannia, at a temporary military airfield set up by Britannia. Tokyo's original airfield, in Japan—no, it should be called Area 11—Gao Hai knows the true nature of the Chinese Federation very well. Right now, because of the Emperor's health condition, the Chinese Federation will absolutely not go to war with Britannia.

The original Tokyo Airport had lost its original function due to the sabotage by the die-hard resistance fighters in Area 11. Fortunately, this world uses Sakura Stone technology, not the petrochemical energy technology of Momo's previous world, so even the take-off and landing of large aircraft does not require a very large site.

Britannia's efficiency was astonishing; they quickly set up a temporary airfield for the entire military. Gao Hai, as the Consul General of the Chinese Federation stationed in District 11, shouldn't have been there, especially since the Chinese Federation hadn't yet recognized District 11's status and there was still a possibility of them sending troops.

But he had no choice but to come out and greet the mysterious Qilin.

What reached Gao Hai was a note personally signed by Emperor Charles of Britannia, stating that this Qilin carried the mission of friendly diplomacy between the Chinese Federation and Britannia, and that Gao Hai should bring people to hand over and protect it. After that, if any problems arose, it would have nothing to do with Britannia itself.

Upon learning all this, Gao Hai was both shocked and furious.

Surprisingly, the mysterious Easterner he had helped with the ten kilograms of gold turned out to be an important figure, even though Gao Hai had never heard of the word "Qilin" before.

What's infuriating is that since Qilin was able to be received by the Emperor of Britannia and complete certain agreements, it means that Qilin's identity is genuine. He must be someone from the old fogies in Luoyang who bypassed Gao Hai and completed many agreements with Britannia.

How could Gao Hai not be angry?

As one of the powerful eunuchs, being ostracized from the Chinese Federation and relegated to the position of some lousy Consul General in Area 11 was already enough to infuriate Gao Hai. Now, are those old fogies in Luoyang going to sideline him as well?

Sensing the impending crisis, Gao Hai naturally refused to sit idly by and wait for his doom.

He keenly realized something: why was this Qilin looking for him?

If the Emperor of Britannia doubted Qilin's identity, Qilin could have easily sought out other powerful eunuchs in Luoyang to verify it. Why did he choose a young, powerful eunuch who was being sidelined and was almost losing his power?

Something unusual must be going on. Thinking of this, Gao Hai also recalled the unbelievably young face of the Qilin.

That Qilin... he's probably not even twenty years old yet, right?

Young...too young!

And Gao Hai is young too!

What do these two young people have in common?

Gao Hai didn't know Mo Mo, wasn't familiar with Mo Mo, and knew nothing about Mo Mo, but youth was what the two had in common.

The powerful eunuch in Luoyang disliked young people!

To those old, immortal eunuchs, every talented young person was a hungry wolf eyeing their power and status; they would kill them if they could. All they needed were a pack of obedient, protective lackeys.

Thinking of this, Gao Hai couldn't help but get excited. If Mo Mo could become his ally...

"Sir, the plane is here!"

Upon hearing his subordinate's words, Gao Hai looked up and saw that Britannia's passenger plane was indeed slowly landing. It was a top-of-the-line private jet, used in Britannia to transport national leaders.

Britannia didn't mean to humiliate Momo. After all, Momo had returned to the Chinese Federation, and the agreement between the two countries still required Momo's efforts. Offending Momo might ruin the brothers' big plan.

To lose sight of the bigger picture is the most foolish thing to do.

The plane landed, the door opened, and a young man stepped off the plane, surrounded by several people.

Seeing this, Gao Hai hurriedly went to greet him. At the same time, in order to find out what Mo Mo meant by seeking him out, he wanted to find a way to probe.
