Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

At first, you knew to find the disciplinary officer when something happened, but now that you've recalled the key clue, you haven't mentioned finding the disciplinary officer at all. Isn't this clearly a trap set for someone?

But it didn't matter; Elhesen was skilled and daring, and didn't mind going with the other party at all.

Sino also thought it was fine. Even if Elhesen got into some trouble and got beaten up, it wouldn't matter, since he was a very good fighter.

Just after Elias brought Elhesen back to the depths of Siraj's experimental base, the traveler and Elhesen unexpectedly saw some of Elias's memories.

This is because the traveler and Elhesen were also affected by the 'Hive', which is why they were able to see the memories inside the 'Hive'.

It's worth noting that Paimon didn't see this memory; she seemed unaffected.

Looking back, Paimon and the Traveler are the complete opposite. Paimon has ridiculously high resistance, and she is immune to everything the Traveler does when they establish a mental link.

This time too, the traveler saw the memories, but she didn't.

It was a conversation between Elias and his friend.

[Ilias: "I don't understand. Everyone knows Gani plagiarized your research, so why is no one willing to reveal the truth?"]

[Raju: "Do you know how many people were on that project? If Ghani resigns because of academic plagiarism, the project will be over, and many people will be implicated."]

[Ilias: "Six months of hard work, countless sleepless nights, plus being threatened and insulted at will, and it's only worth 20,000 Mora?"]

Lei frowned. Twenty thousand Mora? A bottle of dango milk costs fifteen thousand Mora. That's barely enough to buy a few dango milks.

Even the wealthy were impressed, saying, "When it comes to methods of exploiting people, you scholars know better than we do, don't you think, PhD?"

It's clear that Elias's friend was treated like a beast of burden by his mentor. His research was stolen, yet he had to work day and night to help the other party with their research, only to receive 20,000 Mora in return.

Twenty thousand Mora, that's only enough for Paimon to eat for two days.

A research project that could have made a professor famous and helped students graduate successfully only earned him such a meager reward.

This isn't right, this is clearly wrong!

Yes, that's wrong, but no one is resisting. Everyone's interests are tied to the mentor's, and if they resist, their own interests will also be harmed.

In any case, he's the only one who suffers losses; everyone else benefits, and everyone is helping this professor.

Faced with such coercion, Raju had no choice but to submit, saying, "Everyone goes through this... as long as I can graduate smoothly..."

Has it always been this way?

By now, readers have probably guessed the whole story: Elias must have been unable to bear seeing his friend suffer, which is why he chose to report him.

To everyone's surprise, Elias tolerated it and chose to respect his friend.

Then he jumped off the 'high-rise' he had been climbing.

What was he thinking at the moment of his fall? Was he filled with regret? Regret for his forbearance, which ultimately cost him his life?

Or is it letting go? Finally, he can say goodbye to the 'skyscraper' he has worked so hard to climb, and the 'skyscraper' to which he gave everything has also helped him unload everything.

No one knows what Raju was thinking at the time, but everyone knows what Elias was thinking afterward.

His friend committed suicide... He jumped, leaping off without hesitation.

Koradu's death was like a stone thrown into the ocean, only causing some ripples, and the only result was that it gave Elias the courage to report it.

Fortunately, Elias, as a 'wave', stirred up ripples.

Otherwise, the only thought people might have is, "What? He jumped off a building?"

"Great! Can we finally take a break? I wonder how many days we'll get off."

This is something that has nothing to do with everyone else, so why would anyone care? At most, they might just feel sorry for the loss of a life.

As for those involved in the incident, Jena and others are even worse off.

In her memory, Jena is questioning Elias.

[Jenaki: "We've sacrificed a year's worth of effort just to protect your reputation. Do you know how many people you've dragged down?"]

[Yap: "Raju's situation is truly regrettable. I originally thought he should have been stronger."]

"Everyone worked very hard to complete this project. He could have easily endured it a little longer, but he chose this time..."

They are blaming Elias, blaming Radu.

He only lost his life, but we lost our diplomas!

Why was Elias so selfish? Why couldn't Raju be stronger?

Some readers can understand the thoughts of Jena and others; after all, people are ultimately self-interested and think about themselves.

But as the saying goes, understanding is not the same as agreeing. What distinguishes humans from animals is that humans can overcome the selfishness of their genes.

Those who achieved this have always been praised by everyone, wouldn't you say, Great Compassion Tree King?

Raju had been enduring so much for everyone's sake, so why didn't he continue to endure it? It's simple: he had already reached his breaking point, he couldn't hold on any longer before he jumped.

Elias didn't want any fame; he just wanted to speak out for his friend.

What did they do wrong? Why should they be blamed?

Even when Elias finally apologized, Jenagi refused to accept it.

[Jenaki: "You don't need to apologize, and I won't accept your apology. But you will definitely pay for it."]

Readers were absolutely furious at this point. These people—no, were they even human?

Why are all the Churches like this? They might as well be destroyed!

Oh wait, the Order of the Fathers has already been destroyed...

Even the Tree King couldn't help but close his eyes; the Order of the Fathers really deserved a major purge.

Despite doing what he was supposed to do, Elias was isolated and constantly subjected to insults, slander, and threats.

The person who did wrong only received a minor punishment and then was fine.

This is unfair! The readers were furious. They all believed that 'doing good deeds should be rewarded,' so their anger was beyond words.

As I said before, people are always full of passion, but afterwards they will be the ones to be treated with violence.

Is this justice?

—Yes or no.

Chapter 686 Welcome to the Hive

Elias's whistleblowing was not for his own benefit, so he will be hailed as a 'hero' by the Church because his actions meet everyone's moral standards.

But for those whose interests are involved, this is 'betrayal'. We're all parasites, so why should we be the ones to suck blood while you don't?

In their eyes, Elias ruined their lives, so how could they blame others and not feel that they had a problem?

So they started hurling insults and threats at Elias, until they ruined his life as well.

No wonder Elias joined the 'hive mind'; he couldn't take it anymore.

Now readers know why Jena and the others hate Elias—it's for this very reason!

She talked about how miserable she was, how Elias ruined her life, and that she would never let Elias go.

At first, everyone thought that Elias had really done something outrageous, but it turned out to be like this?

I'm furious and outraged that these people would want to ruin someone's life for such a reason!

It was clearly their own choice, they clearly did something wrong, yet they're putting all the blame on those who did nothing wrong!

Even the Tree King and Nasita, who always doted on their people, were unusually angered, their brows furrowed.

This is outrageous! It not only tarnishes academia but also deeply hurts those who did nothing wrong.

They are unwilling to harm their own people, but those who can be harmed are also their people.

Fortunately, Lin Qiu resolved these issues in advance, preventing a tragedy from occurring.

This incident also angered Sino. As a law enforcement officer, he found this kind of thing the most unacceptable; the justice of the law was being desecrated!

The people of Fontainebleau cannot accept this desecration of justice; they wish they could send Navelette to Mount Sumeru.

Although they may seem to be 'blaspheming' justice, they don't see it that way. They just think they enjoy watching the show, but they don't actually side with the bad guys.

Lin Qiu never expected that this story would collect so many emotion points, with the system indicating that most of the emotions were anger.

He hardened his fist, his desire to punch the other person in the face with all his might was palpable.

Such unfair treatment can indeed arouse public outrage, because if people who do good deeds do not receive a reward, who will dare to do good deeds in the future?

Everyone was angry, but Jena panicked. Their affair had already been exposed when Lin Qiu came to carry out the purge, and she had been expelled from the Order of the Church.

These people were just signing their names along with their mentors, so they wouldn't go to jail; they just wouldn't be able to continue their studies at the Order of the Fathers.

But now that this story has been written out, they are truly finished. The crimes they committed are no longer just "aiding and abetting evil."

It's over, it's all over now...

No one felt sorry for her. Everyone else in the tavern was reading, and those who knew her looked at her with hostility.

People who used to drink happily with me now look at me with disdain and anger.

They did nothing because it was still uncertain how the disciplinary officer would handle her.

But they clearly wouldn't have any contact with her anymore; her life was truly over.

But who can she blame? Following Jena's line of thinking, she still wouldn't blame herself; she attributed the mistake to Elhesen and Lin Qiu.

If Lin Qiu hadn't written this story, wouldn't everyone have never heard of it?

If Al-Hysen hadn't investigated, these things wouldn't have been exposed, right?

It's all your fault! You've ruined my life!

Even at this point, she still didn't think she was wrong. No, she actually knew she was wrong.

She knew from the very beginning, from when she was oppressing her classmates under the guidance of her mentor.

She knew she had chosen the wrong path and was going further and further down the wrong road.

But she dared not admit it; she dared not admit that she was wrong, because the mistake was too great for her to bear. She could only blame others for the mistake.

Because they dared not take responsibility, they tacitly approved of their mentor's behavior, and no one dared to report it.

Because she dared not take responsibility, even though all her mistakes and their consequences were written in the book, she still did not repent.

Whether she admits it or not, whether she repents or not, is no longer important; reality will make them pay the price.

Elias was also watching the story, and he truly breathed a deep sigh of relief.

At that moment, he deeply felt the power of the prophecy book, how powerful it was to write down untold stories and have people believe in them.

Even more terrifying, it could actually change one person's mind; Elias found himself falling in love with... I mean, respecting Elheisen.

Who will become the great sage?

I choose Elhesen; he's the one everyone wants!

This is why Elhesen didn't know that the person he helped had betrayed him.

In reality, Elias chose to follow the path of Elhesen.

However, in the story, he took a different path, which was the path of Shibarak, no, it was the path of following Siraj.

He became 'Siraj 36' to escape the annoying reality and stop worrying about fitting in.

So he accepted the mission as 'Siraj 36' and led Elhesen to the test site.

Upon arriving here, Siraj delivered a lengthy discourse on the topic of 'fitting in'.

He believes that people outside also suppress a part of themselves in order to 'fit in,' so what's the difference between that and what he does?

It would be better to completely abandon oneself like he did, which would reduce the pressure of facing real-world problems.

[Siraj: "Here, people can live easily and happily without having to think complicatedly. This is their choice, and I'm just fulfilling their wishes."]

Some readers: Yes.

Paimon: "You, you, you! You're clearly just making excuses!"

Some readers: Yes.

This was just his high-sounding rhetoric, because what he was doing now was getting other members of the Hive into the Council of the Church to elevate him to the position of Sage.
