"So, that's how it is~" Yu Qi whispered, with a faint smile on his face. For some reason, he didn't look angry at all.

"Yu Qi, are you, are you okay?!" Carefully reaching out to hug Yu Qi's neck, Nashida gently pressed his head against her chest and whispered.

"If you want to cry, just cry." After reading all the log information of the mecha with him, Nashida understood its complicated feelings at the moment and pursed her lips: "It's okay. When you are sad, you should cry out loud."

“Only after crying can people cheer up and face all the sadness and pain in front of them.”

"..." Somewhat helplessly, he raised his eyes from Nashida, looking up at her chubby chin, and Yu Qi couldn't help but complain: "I'm not that sad, okay!"

Of course, smelling the exotic scent of plants and trees, Yu Qi slowly closed his eyes and murmured, "Just relax for once~"

"Well, be good~"

In the vast data space, there was only the sound of a big and a small person snuggling together, in silence.

After a long time, Yu Qi slowly opened his eyes, the emerald light in his eyes gradually faded, and his expression became calm again.

Gently breaking free from Nashida's embrace, Yu Qi sat up straight, looked down at the little girl in front of him, and smiled, "Thank you, Nashida."

"Well, you're welcome. I'm glad you're okay." Nashida curved her lovely eyes and looked at the smile on Yu Qi's face that was not forced, and she couldn't help but smile happily.

"Um, Nashida, I, I have something to ask you..." After hesitating for a moment, Yu Qi looked down at the mecha log in his hand. Although he was a little hesitant, he finally sighed and asked.

"Regarding the laws of nature, and this... what is the curse about? Does the laws of nature really not allow the emergence of a new race of life on the continent of Teyvat?"

Otherwise, why did the mecha conduct more than 100 million simulations, and except for the one of transforming into a siren, even the best result was that the mecha was destroyed and Yu Qi fell into a deep sleep?

If this is true, will Yu Qi still be able to build ships in the future? Or does he have to overthrow the laws of nature before he can build ships?

"This..." After reading the log information of the mecha, Nashida naturally understood what Yu Qi's question was referring to.

In fact, she was also a little surprised, but not about what Yu Qi asked.

It is because, within a short moment after awakening consciousness, this mecha can directly contact the World Tree, and even find a lot of secret information from it, including the curse of heaven, the taboo of creating life, and even the adventers.

Even as the incarnation of the World Tree, she still had to work hard to retrieve this information so accurately after connecting to the World Tree.

Of course, Nashida didn't know that as a simplified version of the core 'Mind Cube' of the ships, the 'unit chip' naturally generated in this mecha after it gained self-awareness was also a kind of mental creation.

Normally, it has another name in the world where the ships are located - the mind unit!

A magical creation that allows ships that have reached their peak (level 100) to have the possibility of breaking through their limits.

As a highly combined form of mental power and information data, even if she may be suppressed by Nashida in terms of spirit, when it comes to retrieving information, a thousand Nashidas combined may not be able to beat a single mental unit.

"This..." After hesitating for a moment, Nashida raised her eyes and stared at Yu Qi, her big pupils full of seriousness: "Yu Qi, you must not tell anyone else what I am going to say to you next!"

"Ok!"

"Actually, it's like this..."

Chapter 153 Taboo of Life

"In the early days of this world, there was a special sea on the surface of the planet. It was the most primitive ocean and the origin of all life in Teyvat. We call it: the Primordial Sea."

"Legend has it that the original sea is similar in composition to blood, and all life is indistinguishable from each other when immersed in the original sea water."

In the tone of reciting an epic poem, Nashida slowly recounted the history she knew: "In order to set foot on land and high in the sky, life evolved blood vessels, in order to keep the original sea in the body."

"And at the very beginning, the heart that ruled this primordial ocean was the God of Life, the original water dragon."

"At that time, seven dragon kings ruled the world, and countless dragon lizards roamed the vast world. Later, the true king we obeyed, who is now the Heavenly Principle, descended from the sky."

Having said that, Nashida looked up at the sky with some fear, and then raised her hand slightly, the power of the World Tree was mobilized, and a strange power vaguely enveloped her and Yu Qi.

"He led his four shadows to fight against the rulers of the old world. After forty years of chaos, all seven dragon kings were defeated."

"In this battle, the Water Dragon, the god of life, was also killed. As a result, the Primordial Sea lost its heart. This area of ​​the sea was ownerless, and the water of the Primordial Sea began to riot."

"In order to control the power of the primordial womb sea, the true king ordered the one of his four shadows who held the power of 'life' to create another heart in the primordial sea."

"That is the original pure water spirit, the original water god on the same level as us."

"However, although it was created by the Ruler of Life as the heart of the Primordial Sea, unlike the previous generation of water dragons, the Water God was completely deprived of the authority to create life."

"Across the entire continent, whether it is birds, beasts, fish, flowers, trees, or even today's humans, all life is created by the laws of nature and the rule of life."

"The authority to create life and evolve species is completely controlled by Heaven and its shadow. Anyone who attempts to create life with their own abilities, especially human existence, is considered to have violated Heaven's taboos and will be cursed and punished by Heaven."

At this point, Nashida took a deep breath, her emotions seemed a bit complicated: "The first generation of the God of Water, the original pure water spirit Egolia, her fall is related to this."

"So, if your 'family member' really obtained sufficient information from the World Tree, then it might not be surprising that he made such a choice."

"So, that's how it is..." As Nashida spoke in a low voice, Yu Qi gradually understood everything and his expression became solemn.

"Not only that." Nashida looked up at Yu Qi who was deep in thought and asked, "Yu Qi, do you know the Adventer?"

"'Adventers'?! What is that? This seems to be the first time I've heard of this concept..." Yu Qi frowned, somewhat puzzled.

"'Adventers'... In the world of Teyvat, 'Adventers' refers to alien beings that do not belong to this world."

"Wait a minute..." His eyes suddenly widened, Yu Qi looked at Nashida in astonishment: "Isn't that the same as me?"

Although as early as the first day of the time travel, when Yu Qi was exposed in front of Xiang Ling, he had already heard her say that there has always been a legend of "visitors from outside the world" in the world of Teyvat.

But since he traveled through time, Yu Qi has not heard anyone else say something similar, so over time he just forgot about it.

Now, when I suddenly heard Nashida's words, the memories buried in my mind instantly emerged.

"Yes, that's the theory." Nodding, Nashida glanced at Yu Qi with a strange look on her face: "Before you, there were four known "Adventurers" on the continent of Teyvat."

"Oh? Four, so many?" Yu Qi was obviously stunned when he heard the number Nashida said, but he asked curiously: "Then, Nashida, do you know who these four "Adventers" are?"

"Hmm~~" Nashida raised her hand and tapped her lips, revealing a very cute distressed expression: "According to my guess, the 'First Adventer' should be the current 'Heavenly Principle', but as for the other Adventers, I still need some time to 'verify' them."

"After all, as alien beings that do not belong to this world, any information about the Adventers cannot be recorded by the World Tree. I can only infer that those people are Adventers through some details."

"But, unfortunately, when it comes to matters involving the 'Adventers', even the World Tree is not necessarily trustworthy. Once someone deliberately conceals the fate of those related to the 'Adventers', the World Tree's records will become blurred."

Not to mention, the information recorded by the World Tree itself may also be modified artificially!

Sighing in her heart, Nashida did not tell anyone about this matter.

"Well, according to what you said, I should be the fifth "Adventer" of this continent?" Yu Qi raised his hand and pointed at himself, with a subtle expression on his face: "I am honored to be on the same level as the legendary "Heavenly Principle". "

However, to Yu Qi's surprise, Nashida shook her head vigorously: "I don't know!"

"?"

"You are indeed a being from outside the world. The World Tree cannot record your information. Logically speaking, you are indeed a member of the Adventers."

Nashida scratched her head with a hesitant look on her face. "But, compared to other 'Adventers', although their own information cannot be recorded by the World Tree, the things they participate in all have corresponding information in the World Tree."

"As long as we compare the blank parts, we can easily analyze the details of the Adventer."

"But Yu Qi..." Nashida tilted her head, her expression gradually becoming subtle: "When you descended, you were just like an ordinary descender. The only person who could not be observed was you. The things you participated in are still recorded in the World Tree."

"But I don't know since when, everything you participated in began to lose its record in the World Tree. It's like an information black hole. Everything related to you has become blank."

Recalling the time when she first met Yu Qi, because she and Yu Qi reached a resonance, the communication between Nashida and the World Tree became much easier.

After the two separated, out of curiosity about this "relative", Nashida carefully entered the World Tree, wanting to inquire about Yu Qi's information.

But the result was nothing.

She even tried to find Yu Qi's trace by searching a large area of ​​information in Liyue, but in the end she discovered that a large area of ​​information in Liyue Harbor had turned blank.

Everything that happened was never recorded by the 'World Tree'.

This unprecedented situation completely shocked Nashida, and her little head was completely unable to comprehend what was going on.

Later, she met Yu Qi by coincidence and encountered several first-generation gods. After returning, Nashida directly communicated with the World Tree and stayed in it almost day and night, frantically searching for all kinds of knowledge.

During this period, he secretly contacted Venti, Zhongli and others for advice, and finally managed to catch up with the basic knowledge that a god should master in two or three days.

Information like the taboo of creating life and "the adventers" were part of her gains in the past two days. Otherwise, she would not have been able to answer Yu Qi's questions.

"Is that so..." Yu Qi subconsciously raised his hand and touched his cheek, whispering: "It seems that I am quite special. Could I be the protagonist of a novel?!"

"Ah?" Not understanding what Yu Qi meant, Nashida tilted her head: "The protagonist of a novel? Are you doubting that you are a fake, imaginary character? Don't worry, no, you, me, and everyone else are not fake!"

Although the situation in Teyvat itself is special enough, the endless cycle makes people who know the truth inevitably feel a sense of "falsehood".

However, as a god who wields the power of dreams, Nashida always firmly believes that she and this world are real things.

It is not some so-called 'imaginary character' or 're-enacted drama'.

"No, I don't care about that." Shaking his head, Yu Qi didn't explain much.

Seeing this, Nashida did not ask any further questions, but continued: "If it was a normal person or god on the continent of Teyvat, after violating the taboo of creating life, at most they would be cursed by heaven, punished by guiding their fate, and destroy the created life at the same time."

"But, Yu Qi, you are different. You are the "Adventer" who is equal to the Law of Heaven."

"So..." Raising his eyebrows, Yu Qi vaguely sensed something.

"So..." Nashida bit her lower lip, with a hint of hesitation on her face, as if she didn't even dare to believe her own speculation: "I guess, if you really created humans in Teyvat, or your own clan."

"Heavenly justice...may regard you as her enemy who is competing with her for the 'Throne of Heaven', and she will fight you to the death!"

"It's just like when He descended from outer space and started a war with the dragon race that originally existed in this world!"

"So, if your 'family' also learned this information from the World Tree, then it is understandable that it made such a choice."

"Ah this..." Looking at Nashida with a helpless look, Yu Qi couldn't help but complain: "No, I'm just an ordinary person, okay? How can I be the enemy of that "heavenly law"! "

"Don't even mention Him. Even you can crush me to death with one hand."

"That's not necessarily true~" Nashida looked at Yu Qi. Although she couldn't see the shadow of Teyvat in his body like Lei Dianzhen, the ability from the incarnation of the world tree gave her a vague sense of wonder.

"what?"

"Shh~" Nashida raised her hand in front of her mouth, jumped, stepped on the translucent virtual grid, and said with a smile: "Some things need time to brew, just like the treasure chest in the corner of the secret realm. Before the lid is opened, no one will know what is inside."

"And you, the same thing!"

"..." Opening his mouth and looking at Nashida's cute smiling face, Yu Qi finally did not ask any more questions.

"But, Nashida, why do I feel..." After hesitating for a while, Yu Qi couldn't help but ask: "Shouldn't "Heavenly Law" be your superior? Why do you seem to have no good feelings towards Him at all, and even a little hostile!"

I just asked the question 'Why is creating life a taboo?', but Nashida seemed to want to reveal all the secrets of the law of nature... It was quite speechless.

Moreover, there was absolutely no trace of the respect that a subordinate should maintain towards his superior in her words.

Those who don’t know might think that “Heavenly Law” is actually Nashida’s enemy.

"Hmm~" Nashida raised her hand and tapped her lips, tilted her head and showed a very cute smile: "Yes!"

"Ah?" After a moment of silence, Yu Qi blinked and looked at Nashida with some confusion.

"I'm telling you, it's true, I really don't like 'heavenly principles'!"

"Why? Logically speaking, Heavenly Principle is not only your superior, but may even be the creator of the demon gods. It is because of Him that the demon gods appear~"

"Well, how should I put it~" After frowning and thinking for a moment, Nashida shook her long and pointed elf ears, and then asked: "Would you like a relative who lives upstairs from you, smashes things in your house at any time, and likes to set all kinds of messed up rules for you?"

"Even if He is considered your elder?"

"Of course not..." Shaking his head without thinking, Yu Qi complained: "If I had an elder like this, I would never bother to associate with him in my life. If he really wanted to push me, I would definitely not show mercy."

"Well, it seems we have the same attitude!"

"Uh..." After a moment of hesitation, Yu Qi quickly reacted and looked up at the sky subconsciously. Although the sky in the cave was the same as the outside world, they were not completely connected. At least it would not rain in the cave.

Therefore, it was naturally impossible for Yu Qi to see the appearance of Sky Island.

"That's really hard for you guys."

"Hee hee~"

"But, then again." Suddenly thinking of some key factors, Yu Qi's mouth twitched violently, and he couldn't help but ask: "Nashida, you said that my information, including what I did, is completely unobservable in the World Tree, right?"

"Ok!"

"Does that mean that even if I really violated the taboo of creating life, as long as I'm not stupid enough to expose it to the "law of heaven", she won't know about it?"

"Uh... maybe, possibly, huh?"

"Then... wouldn't this series of operations on the mecha be a waste of effort?" Playing with the chip in his hand, Yu Qi's expression was a little subtle.

"Ah~" Nashida opened her mouth in astonishment. She didn't seem to have expected such a thing. After a long pause, she shook her head hesitantly: "Maybe, no."
