"Probably not that long, to be exact."
Jiang Ming coughed twice and spoke vaguely.
There is not more than a hundred years here; all of it has been concentrated in the past two years or so.
Without the assistance from all sides and the help of the industrial systems of Fontaine and Zhidong, it is hard to say whether he can even fight at all now.
I’m dying of laughter. It’s time for dinner again, brothers.
Lei Dianying hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Did you use the power from outside this world?"
Is that so?
That’s right?
"That's probably it."
Jiang Ming was also a little unsure.
The source of knowledge is outside of Teyvat, but the entire process is made by Teyvat. Logically speaking, if it develops long enough, Teyvat will be able to make it itself.
"Apart from the Abyss, this is the first time I've seen a power from outside of Teyvat."
These words shocked Jiang Ming.
He remembered the email he had received before, which repeatedly warned him not to touch the abyss.
I always feel like... there seems to be some connection between the two?
"What is the power of the abyss like?"
"It is dark, dirty, and full of corrosiveness. From the body to the mind, everything is corroded. But it is also powerful, difficult to resist, unknown, and terrifying. It is a power of a higher level than elemental force. It can even forcibly distort elemental force. It is completely different from your weapons."
It sounds like something indescribable.
The information obtained from Lei Diandian was not new, as it was all content that had appeared in the game before, either explicitly or implicitly.
The information that Lei Movie has access to does not seem to be able to answer his doubts.
It seems that I have to find it myself.
An idea quickly took root in Jiang Ming's mind.
My thoughts returned to the negotiations.
"Let me first tell you about our conditions. First of all, the culprits headed by Kujo Takayuki must be brought to justice. All the officials in the current shogunate who have problems will be severely punished, and those who meet the criteria will be brought to justice."
"no problem."
Lei Dianying agreed to this very readily.
Even without Jiang Ming's suggestion, she would have done it on her own, it was just a matter of earlier or later, and with lesser strength.
"It's a public trial, in the square in front of the castle tower. And, judging by the current situation, every one of the culprits will be sentenced to death as a minimum."
Lei Dianying became a little hesitant.
"Although they made mistakes, they once..."
"You think about their contributions, but why don't you think about the people they killed? In the past few years, Haigi Island alone has accepted millions of refugees. How many people died on the way and failed to escape? If they cut off a piece of skin from each of these victims, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to cut off ten times as much."
Jiang Ming directly interrupted Lei Dianying's defense.
He had read the records of so many people who had been arrested before. How many of them truly regretted what they had done?
If you hope to cure diseases and save lives, it depends on the situation. Some people can be educated, but some people are terminally ill and beyond help.
It is impossible for him to play the game of offsetting merits and demerits.
But for Lei Film, these are all descendants of the Kujo family and the Hiiragi family.
She has suffered too much loss over the years and she doesn't want to lose anything anymore.
Including Kujo Takayuki and others.
She still wanted to save her life.
Even if it's just to survive in prison.
"I can assure you that the trial will be absolutely fair."
However, faced with Jiang Ming's aggressive attitude, she had no choice but to compromise.
After all, it was those people who were at fault first.
"Row."
Chapter 222 The Unshirkable Responsibility for Malfeasance
Lei Film did not have much bargaining power, so it did not dwell on the matter.
He just mentioned it twice, tried it once, and then agreed.
"The second is the shogunate. The shogunate is no longer necessary. The Coral Palace will take over all the governance of Inazuma. All shogunate officials will be dismissed from their posts. Those with outstanding abilities will be considered for recruitment after investigation."
Lei Dianying's brows frowned subconsciously.
The Inazuma shogunate is mainly composed of the three magistrates, and this has been passed down since the time when Inazuma was first established.
In Shin's time, the shogunate was in power in Inazuma and was helping Shin develop Inazuma.
This is the ancestral law of Inazuma, how can it be changed easily?
If she continues to change like this, will Inazuma still look even a little bit like the familiar her?
"It's just that Kujo Takayuki and other current shogunate bureaucrats have problems. Since they will be held accountable, it seems unnecessary to abolish the shogunate."
Lei Dianying couldn't understand what Jiang Ming and the others were thinking at this time, so he could only tentatively say: "Although you are not from a good background, your strength, courage, and actions for the people have been recognized by all Inazuma. Perhaps, the new shogunate can be led by you."
Hearing this, Jiang Ming couldn't help but smile.
Lei Dianying looked at Jiang Ming in confusion.
"I think we need to make it clear that we overthrew the shogunate by violent means and then established a new government. This is both a negotiation and a notification. We are willing to persuade you to accept this result in a relatively peaceful manner in order to avoid further losses. After all, Inazuma can no longer withstand the tossing."
Lei Dianying did not give an immediate answer, but took a deep breath.
"Inazuma Castle, the shogunate still exists and has not been overthrown."
After a moment's silence, Lei Dianying seemed to struggle and used the few chips in his hand.
"It's almost there. Our troops should have occupied the outlying islands by now, and are landing from the Desolate Sea and White Fox Wilderness and heading for Inazuma City. It will take a few hours at most."
"Moreover, the shogunate facilities in Inazuma Castle, such as the magistrate's office, have probably been smashed to pieces by our workers. The shogunate in Inazuma Castle has long existed in name only."
Seeing that Lei Dianying didn't say anything, Jiang Ming stabbed him again.
"Why are you so obsessed with getting rid of the shogunate? Does the existence of the shogunate hinder you?"
"Indeed, the existence of the shogunate cannot meet the needs of Inazuma's future development and does not conform to our core ideas. It does hinder us and the vast majority of Inazuma people. It should be eliminated and must be eliminated."
"..."
Lei Dianying was speechless for a moment. She just said this subconsciously and never expected to be blocked back.
"why?"
"Because the shogunate has always been just a tool in your hands. It is only used to implement the will of the gods, not the will of the people. In essence, it is different."
"This body is enough to represent the will of the majority of Inazuma people."
"People hope to have more abundant material conditions, live a better life, and no longer be bound by heavy work. They think that the eternity you promised is like this. What is the result?"
"..."
"Let me tell you straight, the result is completely the opposite, which is also the fundamental reason why we meet here today. Look at the people outside the castle tower who can no longer suppress their anger. Their next step is to become us."
"...I admit that this was a mistake made in the process of achieving eternity, but it has now been corrected."
"So what is your understanding of eternity at this moment?"
Jiang Ming took over Lei Dianying's words almost without interruption.
"..."
Lei Dianying was speechless again.
What was the previous understanding? That was indeed the closest to the natural order, but now it is obviously wrong, and the people of Inazuma do not accept it.
New understanding?
She still needs time.
"The only thing that is eternal and unchanging in this world is change itself. If you try to achieve so-called eternity by stagnating development, stagnating change or anything else, all you will get is a country in eternal death."
If it were the general, he would have blurted out "ridiculous" at this moment.
But now it's Lei Dianying. The biggest difference between her and the general is that she can listen to others.
Human words in the literal sense, not words that are spoken for a short time and then closed for a short time.
At this point, she had already begun to think about the sentence "The only constant thing is change itself."
"Moreover, you are not human. You can hardly understand humans. You think you can represent the people of Inazuma and their will. In fact, you are just using your prestige to impose your own will on them. Out of admiration for you, they are willing to believe and follow you, but this does not mean that this is the will of the people of Inazuma."
"During the more than 300 years of your rule, Inazuma's development has almost stagnated after the recovery from the disaster. There has been no change. The same has been true since the general took office. It's as if the stop button has really been pressed. In recent years, it has regressed to a catastrophic level."
"Then how can you guarantee that you and your people can do this? You will also make mistakes, and perhaps not better than me. Even if you can make no mistakes in your life, you only have a lifespan of a hundred years. How can you guarantee that your successors can be the same as you?"
Lei Dianying's thoughts were interrupted, and at the same time, old things were brought up again, which made him inexplicably irritated.
"I can't guarantee it, but what I can guarantee is that the shogunate will definitely not guarantee it."
After being stepped on again, Lei Dianying became even more annoyed.
"It is inevitable that society will have some bumps and detours in its development, but, in the final analysis, it is in the hands of the people and for the people's power to make corrections. If the gods are involved, then what should be done?"
"Furthermore, the two sides have completely different physiological structures, completely different material and spiritual needs, and even completely different concepts of time. The original duty of the gods was to guide humans, but until now, how many are still fulfilling this duty? Can they fulfill it well?"
"The two oldest gods next door, who have fulfilled their duties of guiding mankind, have chosen to believe in the power of mankind and returned the power of choice and development to mankind."
When Lei Dianying heard this, he was about to refute, but he immediately realized something was wrong.
As she thought about these contents carefully, she felt more and more that something was wrong.
His eyes gradually became filled with vigilance.
"It seems that you have also realized this. This is exactly the third point. You will no longer be the supreme general of Inazuma. You will no longer have the supreme rule over Inazuma. The new Inazuma People's Assembly will become the highest authority."
"At the same time, you entrusted such an important matter as governing the country to a puppet, which led to a disaster. You bear the unshirkable responsibility for dereliction of duty."
Jiang Ming said in a calm tone something that was enough to make every Inazuma change color.
Even Ray's movies are no exception.
Chapter 223 The lingering ghost
"Boom——"
The sky outside the castle tower suddenly changed from clear to cloudy.
There was no rain and thunder rumbled in the sky.
Lei Dianying stood up suddenly, looking at Jiang Ming with a stern expression and dangerous glint in his eyes.
"This body is the most noble and precious body in the world, and it should hold the great power of the world. This body has promised a dream to its subjects, and it is eternal and unchanging for thousands of generations."
Lei Diandian, speaking in the most calm tone with the most arrogant words, declared his position and bottom line.
!
The powerful aura made the holders of the Divine Eye, such as Xinhai and Goro, who were sensitive to elemental forces, start to sweat coldly.
Although Jiang Ming was also shocked, he suppressed his fear, stood up and confronted Lei Dianying.
"The island of Umi, from the moment we decided to revolt, has come this far, thanks to the support and help of the broad masses of working people of Inazuma. They trusted us, so they helped us, and through our united labor, we have created today together. We promised them a bright and beautiful future, a future that belongs to people, where everyone can develop freely. This is our solemn promise, and we must fulfill it."
"..."
One man and one god confronted each other in the castle tower.
