Genshin Impact, the new God of Grass, makes Xumi great again

The box was moved away, the noose was tightened, and with a series of muffled groans, the sinful man met his end.

Perhaps at this moment, facing the angry gazes in the audience and feeling the noose tightening around their necks, they will recall how the victims felt when they did evil.

It didn't take long before, under the influence of gravity, the evil people stopped struggling and ended their sinful lives.

This scene was also captured by the cameras pre-arranged in the audience, which will later bring news of the great changes in Sumeru to the entire continent of Teyvat.

The old era has passed and the new era is coming.

Chapter 98 "Going to Beijing for the Examination"

After the Great Trial, the Renaissance Alliance did not directly remove the Great Sage and others from the gallows.

On the contrary, even the entire trial platform had been dismantled, and these gallows with people hanging on them were specially preserved, apparently to be allowed to dry for a few days.

This also made everyone passing by stop and watch, feeling very curious.

After all, this scene of "hanging oneself from a southeast branch" is really rare to see under normal circumstances.

However, in the subsequent transformation of Xumi, such scenes will be staged in various places of Xumi one after another. It is estimated that by then, everyone will be accustomed to these exploiters being hung up.

...

In the Palace of Wisdom, the large conference room that was once used for academic discussions is now used to hold a new round of meetings for the Renaissance Alliance.

In terms of scale alone, this meeting was not as large as the previous plenary session, and only the second Central Committee members of the Alliance attended the meeting.

But this does not mean that this meeting is not important. On the contrary, this meeting is probably the last important meeting of the Renaissance Alliance before the establishment of New Xumi.

The theme of this conference is - what kind of new Sumeru should be built.

Although at this moment, there are still many reactionary forces in various parts of Xumi who are resisting stubbornly, the port of Baida in the north is still under the control of the remnants of the Order.

But now that Xumi City has been liberated, the liberation of these areas is only a matter of time, so the positioning of the alliance must also change.

That is, from a previous resistance organization to a qualified ruler.

To use a vivid metaphor, this is the otherworldly version of "going to Beijing for the Imperial Examination."

Therefore, in order to cope with this big test well, it becomes very important to make adequate preparations in advance and establish some corresponding basic principles in advance.

"The first issue is what kind of country we want to build."

In the past, the Sumeru Ordinance House, as an officially legitimate government, should theoretically have been a fairly advanced form of government.

But in reality, after losing the supervision of God, the corruption of the House of Lords was alarming, and it took only a few generations to degenerate to its current state.

However, this cannot be entirely blamed on the Ministry of Education itself, because Xumi's backward economic situation is also closely related to it.

In today's Xumi, the rural areas are dominated by small peasant economy and serfdom, while in the cities, major chambers of commerce controlled by big capital monopolize everything. In addition, foreign forces also have considerable influence in Xumi.

Under such corrupt economic conditions, even if the House of Religious Orders was once very advanced, it would surely become corrupt and degenerate over time without supervision.

After all, the essence of human beings is actually the sum of all social relations. If the officials of the House of Lords want to exist, they must represent the interests of a certain group of people.

It is obvious that they ultimately chose to represent the interests of big capital in the city and big landlords in the countryside. This is actually a reflection of the law of social development.

But the Renaissance Alliance is fundamentally different from them. Although the Renaissance Alliance was born out of the old Xumi, its guiding ideology is undoubtedly a new thing, and it also represents the interests of the broad masses of working people.

Therefore, in this new Sumeru, it is impossible to continue the previous path of the Institute of the Church, but it is necessary to embark on a completely new path, which brings up the second issue.

"The second issue is how we can build a country that represents the interests of the people and the direction of development of advanced productive forces."

In response to this, Nashida's choice was to abolish the previous exploitative production relations, reform the rural land ownership system, establish a new administrative system, and completely open up the mobility of social classes.

From an economic perspective, this means reforming the entire industry, and from a political perspective, this means changing the current situation where a small number of people represent the country to one where as many people as possible participate in the governance of the country.

"In New Xumi, the School of the Church will return to its original location and become a specialized academic institution again. Its name will be Xumi People's College."

The first thing to be resolved is the House of Ordinances, which is a symbol of the old era. At least in the new era, it certainly cannot be called back to its original name.

“A brand new government needs to be established, and the selection of government staff must be fair, just and open.”

Since the House of Ecclesiastical Affairs was abolished, a new administrative body had to be established immediately. As for the method of selecting personnel, it was eventually established as selection by examination.

Although it cannot be implemented now, once the per capita education level rises, this will become the most important channel for social class mobility.

"At the same time, the principle of both democracy and centralization should be implemented in all major organs and organizations."

Where there are people, there are underworld; where there is authority, corruption is likely to breed.

Therefore, we must ensure that the opinions of all parties can be expressed through democracy, and ensure that decisions can be implemented through centralization.

To sum it up in simple terms, before a decision is made, you can fully express your opinions and fight for your interests, but after the decision is made, you must obey unconditionally to ensure administrative efficiency.

"In addition, people's parliaments at all levels should be established, and a good proportion of representatives of different groups should be appointed in the parliaments to ensure that public opinion is fully expressed."

Different groups of people naturally have different interests. For example, the interests of workers and farmers, and those of ordinary people and those who hold the Eye of God, will be completely different.

Therefore, it is necessary to determine the corresponding proportions, resolve or reconcile the respective contradictions through debate in parliament, and find the greatest common denominator for society.

Of course, due to the lack of self-awareness among ordinary people at this stage, in the initial stage, the parliament still mainly relies on the cadres of the alliance to maintain its operation, and will implement it thoroughly after the self-awareness is improved.

"The third issue is who will be in charge of New Xumi."

This is a very simple question, but also a very important one.

Theoretically speaking, according to the current international situation in Teyvat, no matter how Sumeru changes, the God of Grass will definitely be in power.

But judging from the specific examples of various countries, the political power of each country is actually in the hands of humans in their respective countries, and the gods are only responsible for the general direction. The same is true for the new Xumi.

So on the surface, all the institutions of the entire country are exercising power on behalf of the Grass God. In fact, this is a manifestation of the legitimacy of governance.

But in private, it is impossible for Nashida to take care of every detail, so she is essentially just like the gods in other countries, grasping the general direction, while the specific details are completed by humans themselves.

Then in the new Xumi, this human role will undoubtedly be played by the Xumi Renaissance Alliance.

Afterwards, the Xumi Renaissance Alliance will become the only legitimate ruling organization in Xumi and control the country's political power.

After solving the above three most important issues, this meeting came to an end. The remaining details will be discussed privately after the meeting.

And now, the most important task facing everyone is to prepare for the establishment ceremony of the new Xumi.

After all, it won’t be long.

Chapter 99: The Establishment of New Xumi (Two in One)

The sun rises and the sky is clear. The rainforest, which has been drizzling recently, finally welcomes a long-awaited sunny day.

Even the city of Xumi, which had suffered a long period of devastation due to war, had changed from its former desolation today. Colorful flags were flying in the streets and alleys, and people were jubilant and gathered on both sides of the streets once again.

However, unlike the serious trials before, today's Xumi City is filled with a festive atmosphere, and it is obvious that some big event is about to take place.

And in the very center of the entire Xumi City, which is also the center of the main road running through the entire city, there is a brand new platform standing.

There were also crowds of people on the high platform. Figures were leaning against the guardrails, watching the increasing number of people gathering on the street below.

Among them are both cadres of the Alliance and many ordinary soldiers who have made great contributions in the war. Today, they will share such an honor and witness this great moment together in the best position.

"Lord Grass God, everything has been arranged. Please give us your instructions."

After glancing at the clock beside him and confirming that the scheduled time was about to arrive, Seno asked Nashida for the order to start the ceremony.

He is the commander-in-chief of this founding ceremony and will be responsible for all matters today.

"Then let's start on time. You'll have to work hard today."

As the sky became brighter and more and more people gathered not far away, Nashida nodded to Seno, indicating that he could inform everyone to start the ceremony.

After receiving a positive reply, Seno responded softly, and then without further delay, he directly issued the corresponding instructions through the void terminal.

Later, accompanied by rhythmic loud noises, several beams of light flew across the sky, immediately attracting everyone's attention and marking the beginning of the founding ceremony of the new Xumi.

These are the cannons left over from the Red King era. After temporary modifications, they now serve as salutes.

“Boom~boom~boom.”

As the salutes sounded, the atmosphere on the scene began to become solemn and dignified. Infected by this atmosphere, the people gathered below the stage suppressed their excitement and began to become serious.

The salute did not last too long, and it was soon over. Feeling the gazes from all around her, Nashida knew that it was her turn now.

So, without any hesitation, under the gazes of all Xumi, Nashida walked directly to the center of the platform, to the podium specially prepared for her.

She walked up to the wooden box hidden under the podium, started the loudspeaker, and used her divine power to enhance the effect. Then, facing the pairs of eyes below the stage, Nashida began her speech today.

"Comrades of the Xumi Renaissance Alliance, warriors of the Xumi Renaissance Army, and all the people of Xumi!"

Nashida's voice was as gentle as ever, but with the blessing of divine power and the help of the void terminal, it spread throughout Sumeru in an instant.

"Today, we are all gathered here with great joy to celebrate the victory of the great People's Liberation War!"

Countless Xumi people wearing void terminals stopped all their actions at this moment and listened silently to the new God of Wisdom's first speech to all Xumi in five hundred years.

"Since the great catastrophe five hundred years ago, our proud nation of wisdom has fallen into unprecedented suffering..."

Before talking about the current situation, Nashida first briefly summarized all the sufferings that Xumi had suffered in the past five hundred years, including the division of the country, the rampant death zone, the corruption of the Order, etc.

Hearing her affectionate words and recalling their own past experiences, everyone was aroused and felt the same way.

"Under such circumstances, in order to make the country strong again, to revive wisdom, and to allow all the people of Xumi to live a happy life again, the Xumi Renaissance Alliance came into being..."

Realizing that the atmosphere had been set, Nashida took the opportunity to introduce the birth of the Renaissance Alliance, and also emphasized the ideals and beliefs that the alliance has always upheld.

"Since the establishment of the alliance, the majority of members of the alliance have led the vast majority of people in the desert and rainforest to fight against the reactionary forces headed by the House of Lords..."

Then, she expressed the highest recognition for the struggles of the past years; at the same time, under the watchful eyes of the public, she also gave a thorough characterization of the House of Lords and various old dignitaries.

"Today, with the joint efforts of all the people and under the strong leadership of the Renaissance Alliance, we have achieved a complete victory and swept all the old forces into the dustbin of history!"

After a long period of depression, Nashida changed her tone and the atmosphere became more positive again. In an instant, everyone cheered up again.

"From now on, on this land of Xumi, there will be no more discrimination and division, no more privilege and injustice, and no more exploitation of man by man!"

And as time went on, her tone became higher and higher, and the atmosphere of the entire speech reached its climax.

"In the name of Little Auspicious Grass King, I solemnly announce that New Xumi is officially established today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the salutes that had just fallen silent rang out again, and flowers fell from the sky, offering their own praises for the birth of the new Xumi.

After the speech, Nashida seemed to be still unsatisfied, and she shouted again with all her strength.

"The great, glorious, and correct Xumi Renaissance Alliance, long live it!"

"Long live the great, glorious, heroic people of Xumi!"

Finally, Nashida ended all her words, but what followed was not silence, but thunderous cheers from the entire Xumi City.

It was not just in Xumi City. At this moment, in various places in Xumi, wherever the Void Terminal could cover, people followed the gods and repeated these two slogans.

Shouts, one after another, resounded throughout the entire land of Xumi in an instant.

...

After finishing her speech, Nashida finally stepped down from the podium.

However, maybe it was because she shouted the last two sentences too hard, or maybe she was too emotionally excited, even with the body of a demon, she felt a little weak at this moment.

But under the gazes of everyone, she still tried her best to maintain her image, so as not to lose even a little of her already limited dignity.

Fortunately, she didn't have much more to do in the following ceremony. She just needed to wave her hands down from the platform, so it wasn't a big problem.

Look, now Seno has arrived at the bottom of the platform, preparing to direct the parade team to enter.

"Seno, Commander-in-Chief of the Xumi Restoration Army! Now reporting to you, the troops to be reviewed are ready, please give your instructions!"

After everything was ready, Seno put on a formal Renaissance Army uniform, ran to the front of Nashida, and saluted her loudly.

Naturally, Nashida had no reason to refuse and directly announced the start of the military parade.

"Everyone, move forward in unison!"

Later, neatly-arranged teams of Renaissance Army soldiers, accompanied by the rhythmic beats of drums, slowly passed in front of the platform where Nashida was standing, and received a joint review from both the people and the gods.

They held uniform weapons and wore the same and standardized uniforms of the Renaissance Army. Although there were differences in height and skin color, the murderous aura in their eyes, which was trained in actual combat, made them still majestic.
