"So, from today onwards, there will be only Zhongli wandering around in the world, and there will be no more rock king Morax."
These words made Gan Yu bite her lips lightly.
When the emperor "leaves" in another way, is the contract between her and the "dijun" still valid?
Zhongli's eyes are like a torch, and he can see Gan Yu's confusion in his eyes.
"Gan Yu, because of the contract, you have served Liyue for thousands of years and worked for the welfare of the majority of people in Liyue. This contract—you have also fulfilled it."
"In the future..."
"...do what you want to do."
After listening to Gan Yu, she didn't feel any sense of relief, on the contrary, she felt a big emptiness in her heart.
"I... am I no longer needed?"
Zhong Li frowned.
He didn't expect that Gan Yu, who has been working as a secretary for thousands of years, has already engraved the habit of "finding a contract for herself and acting according to the contract" in her bones.
Chapter A New Contract, Elemental Heavy Cannon
"Dijun, what do you think I should do?"
With his head down, the sound of sweet rain is like mosquitoes.
"From the moment Liyue was established 700 years ago, I have been working here in accordance with the contract I signed with you."
"Three thousand and seven hundred years, 700 million days and nights, except for this matter, I have never ~ ever thought of anything else."
"Now you tell me that my contract is complete, but... what else can I do?"
Gan Yu, who lost her life goal in an instant, looked at Zhongli expectantly, hoping that he could point out the direction for her next life just like how she gave herself a goal in life 700 years ago.
Seeing this, Zhong Li was silent.
The matter was more serious than he thought. People like Gan Yu were so confused after he left, so what about the others?
What about those fairies?
At this time, Ning Qingxuan suddenly asked from the side: "Gan Yu, is there anything you want to do?"
"I...I don't know."
Gan Yu shook his head.
"Then let me change the question." Ning Qingxuan thought for a while and changed the way of asking, "In the past 700 years, what things made you happy?"
Gan Yudai frowned slightly, turned her head slightly, her expression was really thinking.
"Probably, I'm happy when I see Liyue Port is booming, right? After all, it means that my efforts have not been in vain, and it also means that everyone's efforts have paid off."
"It's just that after this joy, I easily feel empty in my heart. When others laugh or cry, they seem to be far away from me."
Zhong Li frowned and then relaxed, he was thoughtful, looked at Gan Yu, then at Ning Qingxuan.
"Gan Yu, if you really need a contract to give yourself direction, can you take Qingxuan into consideration?"
"Eh... eh!?"
Gan Yu didn't expect Zhong Li to ask such a question suddenly.
She raised her head, looked at Zhongli and then at Ning Qingxuan and the general, feeling a little at a loss for a while.
Zhong Li also stared at Ning Qingxuan.
"Little friend, you used to be a human being, but now..." He glanced at the general in Gan Yu's inexplicable eyes, "Although I can't calculate how long you will live, at least you are like me waiting for a demon god."
"But little friend, have you prepared for such a long lifespan? The human mentality cannot sustain such a long time."
Ning Qingxuan began to think along Zhongli's question.
Indeed, human beings can imagine what will happen ten, twenty, or even fifty years from now.
But human beings absolutely cannot imagine their own situation in 100, 200, or even 1000 years—if he can really live that long.
No matter how wise and mighty a king is, it is inevitable that he will become dizzy when he gets old.
If Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, had died on the spot when the Kaiyuan prosperous age reached its peak, his reputation in history would definitely be very different.
Don't look at that girl Ying should have lived for many years, but her past memory is somewhat vague, only a few fragments are left, and she has been sleeping for the last 500 years, so her situation cannot be used as a reference.
"I think that you may need someone by your side who can also survive the long years to give you some guidance in this regard."
"After all, Liyue's contract with Shenzhou is essentially a contract between Liyue and you. As long as you live, the contract is there. In this case, I don't want to see you after many years. When you give up something."
"Shenzhou has no natural reason to impose such things as wear and tear on me." Ning Qingxuan tried to refute.
Zhong Li let out a low laugh.
"Abrasion, sometimes it doesn't come from the outside world."
"You're right." Ning Qingxuan nodded. After all, it was an ancient god who looked at the problem from a sharp point of view. It is true that Ning Qingxuan has not given much thought to these things now, but she will definitely encounter them in the future.
He said to Gan Yu: "Then, Gan Yu, are you willing to sign a contract with me? Work for me from now on, and guide me how to live thousands of years without changing my original intention? In this way, you can also exist as a bridge between Shenzhou and Liyue. After all, I don't want to give up Liyue completely for you."
"As the other party to the contract, my bargaining chip is to give you a promise to witness the future of Liyue, Shenzhou and even more beautiful worlds, and a life that you will no longer feel separated from others like in the past, and you can truly and completely integrate into it."
Gan Yu looked at Zhong Li as if asking for help, but saw him nodding his head encouragingly.
After a while, Gan Yu blushed slightly, and whispered: "I, I am willing, since the contract is established—"
"—Even if the sky falls, the contract must be fulfilled."
Ning Qingxuan stretched out her hand to Gan Yu, and they held each other.
·························································
Seeing that Gan Yu seemed to be about to start working immediately, Ning Qingxuan waved her hands directly: "Don't be in such a hurry, Liyue has been in a mess these few days, I can't let you let go and come to me now."
"Do things from the beginning to the end. After the dust of Liyue's matter is settled, you can officially join the job."
Having said that, Gan Yu still no longer sat with her, but got up and stood beside Ning Qingxuan, nodding slightly: "I understand, Your Highness."
This hard-working unicorn... Ning Qingxuan wanted to rub her pair of soft horns again.
Noticing Ning Qingxuan's gaze, Gan Yu took half a step back vigilantly, covering her head.
"That, Your Highness, horn, you can't touch it."
……Dividing line……
................................
In reality, the impact of Dijun's sudden death on the spot is not as small as in the game.
In the next few days, the entire Liyue almost entered a state of depression. There were not many shops open on the street, and there were constant patrols by the Qianyan Army. Occasionally, pedestrians who appeared on the street walked in a hurry and looked panic-stricken.
Qixing, led by Ningguang, was so busy that his feet never touched the ground. Even Gan Yu, the secretary who had been a little idle in recent days, seemed to have returned to the previous state again.
Because of Ning Qingxuan, Ying and Paimeng were not wanted this time. They stayed in Shenzhou's official residence in Liyue with Ning Qingxuan for the time being, but they still went out occasionally. Some commissions for investigations.
Ning Qingxuan didn't go anywhere, but researched the holy relic in the mansion.
Obviously, this kind of thing from the earth veins, although for ordinary people to get such a thing is the smoke of the ancestors, but for an existence like Zhongli, it is not very beneficial.
But Ning Qingxuan always felt that this holy relic, born after returning to the earth's veins after Yasha's fall, might have the possibility of resurrecting that Yasha.
Suddenly, the originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy.
Not long after, the pouring rain fell.
At the same time, a roar that resounded through the sky came from the distant sea.
"Is it finally time?"
Looking up at the sky, Ning Qingxuan put away the holy relic.
"It's almost time to see the power of the elemental cannon jointly developed by Liyue and Shenzhou." Corpse.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
With just a flash, the general's figure appeared beside Ning Qingxuan, and the next moment, the two of them turned into lightning and appeared in a tall attic.
Standing here, one can just see the turbulent waves on the sea in the distance, the demon god Oser who covers the sky and the sun, and the Jade Pavilion that is flying towards Oser.
"Your Highness, Empress."
The Chinese ambassador to Liyue, who was also standing here, immediately bowed to the two of them.
Ning Qingxuan nodded slightly, watching the battlefield together with the general.
Although she stays at home these days, she is not completely ignorant of what happened to Li Yuesheng.
Although Ying was not wanted, she was still involved in the "Assassination of the Rock God" incident with Qixingbu's assistance in the investigation.
Met the son, met Zhongli under the recommendation of the son, was fooled into running around and hurriedly sent Xian Dianyi "Nine Eighty Zero", and so on, everything was the same as the plot.
Now it seems that the young master still found out about the so-called fairy ancestor Fafai in the golden house, and also had a conflict with Ying there, and finally released the demon god Oser.
But everything that follows will go in a different direction from the plot.
"Your Highness, with the cooperation of the Empire and Liyue, together with Liyue's craftsmen, we have produced a total of more than 4 elemental cannons. After testing, the ultimate effective range of these new weapons can reach [-] kilometers. What's even more amazing is that because the elemental power has a property similar to light to a certain extent, the elemental attacks it fires have a speed close to [-]% of the speed of light even if they cannot reach the speed of light."
The officials beside him noticed that Ning Qingxuan was looking at the rows of heavy artillery that had been deployed on the port, and quickly explained.
The attack speed reaches 4% of the speed of light, which is faster than any weapon in the empire.
If it wasn't for the lack of elemental power in the local area, Ning Qingxuan even wanted this weapon to be popularized in the imperial army in the local area on a large scale.
With an effective range of 4 kilometers and a strike speed of [-]% of the speed of light, this has almost reached the point where within the range, it can be destroyed instantly.
If enough time is given to the scholars of the empire, so that they can better analyze and improve this elemental cannon, I believe that the range problem can be further improved.
The elemental power born from the splitting of the Light Realm Force can still bring such a huge surprise after being weaponized.
In other words, Liyue made all these things, did Tianli not respond?
Thinking about it carefully, he naturally acquiesced in doing these things under Zhongli's nose.
