Xinhai and Wulang looked at each other.

Even though they already knew that Jiang Ming came from a different world outside of Teyvat, they still found it incredible that Jiang Ming could have mastered so much information.

Being able to know about General Lei Dian’s situation before was already far beyond that of an ordinary person.

Looking at the teacup on the table that was automatically drinking tea without anyone noticing, Xinhai had only one question in his mind: Is this really information that an ordinary person can grasp?

It seems that it is not as simple as they imagined.

No matter how Xin Hai thinks now, he could never have imagined that there would be a game that records everything.

Now Xin Hai was just looking at the situation on the field. She felt like she couldn't get a word in at all...

I have no idea what either side is talking about.

Nico's voice was heard again in the speakers: "Is that so..."

She seemed to still be somewhat lost in her memories.

"But judging from your words, did you read this introduction about us from some history book?"

"About that..."

Jiang Ming's answer was a little hesitant.

Does playing Genshin Impact count?

"That's it."

Nico didn't dwell on this matter any further.

"You just said that I don't look like someone who has the ability to change fate. What do you mean?"

"Literally. The fate of Teyvat is very difficult to shake. Even gods have a small chance, but for people below the level of gods... the chances are not completely zero, but there is no difference either."

"Then doesn't this still have a small chance? Maybe it just happened to hit me on the head?"

Jiang Ming didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

After all, he is a time traveler. He knows so much information from the traveler's perspective. It is normal for him to make some small changes, right?

"But, what you did was far more than just shaking fate. You directly changed fate. You can even say that you raised the predetermined fate."

"?"

"?"

"?"

Jiang Ming, Xin Hai and Wu Lang all looked towards the direction of the teacup at the same time.

Destiny...changed???

"It's like a big, sturdy tree. Ordinary small animals can't affect it at all. Stronger animals, such as lions, elephants, and bears, will cause it to sway if they hit the trunk, but swaying does not mean displacement. And you uprooted the tree and planted a new tree of the same size in the hole left behind."

More wonderful metaphors have been added.

No, the focus now shouldn't be...

Am I that awesome?

Jiang Ming was confused.

But soon, he found that Xinhai and Wulang were staring at him.

"These contents are not suitable for them to hear yet, so I am speaking in your mind. You can communicate with me directly with your thoughts, like this..."

No wonder, it turns out that the call has been changed to encrypted.

Jiang Ming followed the method Nico gave and began to talk to Nico in his mind.

"You have a very strong aura from outside the world, and mixed in with this aura is, um..."

"What's mixed with it?"

"The original breath."

"Do you mean... the original man, or... the one in the sky...?"

There are so many things related to the origin in this place called Teyvat, right?

"It's hard to say, I just felt this kind of aura."

"..."

"However, as I said, the fate of Teyvat is difficult to shake, let alone change. You should also know, right? The fate of Teyvat comes from the watchful eyes of heaven."

"Indeed, I have heard a little about it."

"So, the difficulty in changing one's fate does not lie in changing it, but in going against the rules set by Heaven. In other words, going against Heaven. Even the once powerful Second Coming One could not do this, but you did it. And you are just an ordinary person who cannot be more ordinary. This is what amazes and puzzles me the most."

"Even under today's circumstances, this is simply impossible."

Jiang Ming didn't know what to say now.

Just a few minutes ago, he had no idea he was that powerful.

"Perhaps, if my memory serves me correctly, Tianli has fallen asleep, and perhaps he doesn't know this."

"The Maintainer is still alive and active. Even the Maintainer's power far exceeds that of ordinary gods, and ordinary people cannot contend with it."

Ok?

"From what I have heard, the maintainers of Heaven's Law are dying."

"The power of the Maintainer comes mainly from the principles of heaven, so 'dying' can have a double meaning. Besides, you know, a lean camel is bigger than a horse."

This was the first time Jiang Ming had come into contact with content that did not exist in the game since he came to the world of Teyvat.

At least that which has not yet been shown.

Chapter 165: Keep going

Jiang Ming could no longer answer immediately.

This has touched upon his blind spot in knowledge.

"And the most surprising thing is that faced with such a situation, the maintainers not only did not take action, but on the contrary, they let it develop, and even..."

Nico's tone was filled with uncertainty and hesitation.

"Is there anyone still covering up for the new destiny?"

It seemed that Nico thought for a long time before he found the appropriate adjective "cover".

Ordinary means will not reveal any new possibilities for the current continent of Teyvat. Obviously, while the two destinies are fighting, someone is covering up something.

It may be the maintainer, or it may not be, but it is to deceive the maintainer.

In short, I don’t know who it is or for what purpose.

"Although it is indeed puzzling, it is true that based on your current progress, the possibility has already emerged and is fighting against the predetermined fate. Barbiros believes that there is a god who is at least as important as the law of nature who is in charge of all this."

A god who is as important as the principles of heaven...

Jiang Ming felt dazed.

So, was my travel to Teyvat part of this person's - or God's - plan? Or was it just a coincidence?

Are Gauss and other researchers who seem to have made rapid progress as if they were born with a magic bullet also part of the plan?

So what is the other party’s purpose?

"Anyway, in the possible future we saw, there was indeed a scene of you appearing. Under three huge spaceships, there were about 5000 soldiers in mechanical armor. In front of them, you seemed to be talking to a woman. However, we couldn't see the woman's appearance, nor could we get any information about her. She was very mysterious, and didn't seem to be from Teyvat. She was also very powerful."

Is this the mysterious person who helped in secret? Or is he the mastermind who traveled to Teyvat himself?

But, a huge spaceship? He was wearing mechanical armor, which should be power armor, and he was still alive?

It seems like this is the world line where I have achieved victory according to the predetermined plan?

Although I don’t know who the woman who will talk to him in the future will be.

But if that's the case...

To be able to build such a huge spaceship, the level of technology must have been very high at that time.

He cannot be the only one who is needed for scientific research and manufacturing.

"It seems that you are also confused. But this is normal. Even I felt dizzy when I first saw all this. The world has changed, and it has changed very quickly. It is almost leaving me behind."

Seeing that Jiang Ming didn't reply, Nico thought he was shocked by the future scene.

"Ah? No no no no..."

Nico's voice woke Jiang Ming up.

He was just thinking about the problem and had some associations!

"I was thinking, if this is the case, then is there a possibility that for some reason, Heavenly Justice and the Maintainers really don't know the current situation, or they know but can't or are unable to take action, and in the future... when it develops to a certain extent, the power of man, the power of the people, will be enough to defeat it?"

"Are you referring to spiritual power such as willpower or faith? It is undeniable that the willpower and faith of mortals are powerful when combined, and can even rival powerful demons. But the situation you are talking about is impossible."

Jiang Ming wanted to say at the first moment that what he said was more about material power rather than pure spiritual power, but he suddenly thought of the certainty in Nico's words.

"why?"

"Um……"

Nico did not give an answer immediately, but started thinking.

"It's like a fountain can't be taller than its source."

After a long time, Nico gave an ambiguous answer.

"What is the source?"

"Sorry, you have to explore these on your own."

Can't you say it?

Nico's wording reminded Jiang Ming of the scene in the game where a certain lazy monster and a retired old man clearly knew something but couldn't say it.

Damn Riddler!

However, it cannot be said that this itself has already explained a lot of things.

Furthermore, in Nico's words, such true and pure spiritual power as willpower and faith is only of an idealistic nature.

"Does this world have a true idealistic power? I think therefore I am, my mind is the universe, or some kind of objective spirit?"

"Within a certain range, it does exist. However, the height of a fountain does not exceed its source, so fundamentally speaking, it does not exist."

The source again.

Jiang Ming felt that if he continued to ask this question, he would probably not get any answer.

Moreover, he already had his own guesses.

Jiang Ming's gaze turned to the divine eyes of the other two people in the conference room.

Speaking of which, this thing... seems like "wish come true" to people who don't know the inside story.

But those who understand will know that this thing is a fragment of authority, which is only guided by the human spirit, or the manipulation of elemental forces, to ultimately achieve the effect of controlling matter.

In essence, it is just a machine that is beyond people's current cognition.

Xinhai and Wulang felt puzzled when they looked at Jiang Ming.

Are these two talking about me? Why are they looking over here?

Retracting his gaze, Jiang Ming asked the question that concerned him the most: "What if it is not spiritual power, but material power? For example, the huge spaceship you mentioned."

"Is that so?" Nico's voice paused. "I don't know."

"You don't know that either?"

"Just as a fountain cannot rise higher than its source, my knowledge comes from the ancient tree, and what I know is limited to what the ancient tree has recorded. Isn't there a saying among humans that one cannot imagine what one has never seen?"

"But if it's Alice, she might be able to answer your question."

"That Ms. Alice who is exceptionally good at explosions?"

"Yes. She has traveled to many worlds, not just explosions. Her knowledge is very wide."
