“Isn’t this helping people become stronger and bigger?”
"No, no, no. In the short term, Inazuma will have a certain growth. But in the long term, Inazuma will have so many hungry mouths to feed. There is a saying that it is not the lack of food that is worrying, but the inequality of food. In fact, Inazuma's dependence on Liyue will become even greater. After all, they are an island nation with a shortage of supplies.
Then at some point, when they can no longer tolerate being controlled by others and are ready to take up the butcher knife to resist, we can scrape off a piece of fat meat just like we did with the Kingdom of Winter.
Risks and opportunities coexist. No one can predict what will happen in a few years. I would not be surprised if Liyue becomes weak in your hands. Arrogance, internal friction, and power grabbing are the biggest drawbacks of the current Seven Stars and Eight Gates system. "
"It seems that your plan is unreliable."
"After all, there is no other way! If you use an ocean-going freighter to support Umijima, what will Inazuma think?
That General Lei Dian was a brainless warrior who chopped our boat with a sword. We had no place to cry. The country's isolation order has not yet ended, and we went to support the rebels. It is totally unreasonable!"
After everyone analyzed the situation, they concluded that they really could not support a private organization in its rebellion. The reputation that Liyue had worked so hard to build would drop directly to negative numbers.
The "Liyue Southern Defense Line Support Plan" slowly began to operate.
Chapter 147 Someone does evil again
Time flies, and the Lantern Festival is approaching. The Emperor of Geo had just held his Immortal Sending Ceremony last month. In addition, there are new policies in all aspects of Liyue, and many buildings in Liyue Harbor are being rebuilt, and personnel changes are very frequent.
This year's Lantern Festival was short of staff during the preparation period. We had to hold it, but we couldn't do it in a big way. There were so many foreigners, and we couldn't be too rude. We had to get it just right. Qixing, who was in charge of this year's Lantern Festival, lost a lot of hair.
Mingyun Town.
In a huge mine, countless steel supports support a huge platform, and neatly cut pieces of Mingxia Floating Stone are placed at the bottom.
Workers around were installing a huge cylindrical object into it. The energy storage components, cooling components, stance components, and control components were all properly placed.
Countless researchers were adjusting the various parameters. The success of the Liyue Protectorate Type 59-1 tank had given them a taste of success. Wherever the beam reached, basically all the shields that were not turned on were penetrated. This was just a second-generation high-temperature ray generator developed based on the Relic Heavy Machine.
However, the power consumption of this weapon is too great. Without supplies, you can only fire one shot at full power, or three shots normally, and then there is a long wait for recharging.
It has many disadvantages such as high cost and long charging time, but in a city defense battle, it can be very effective if there are supply vehicles on the side for supply.
In the battle at the beginning of the year, the Qun Yu Pavilion, one of the symbols of Liyue, had no attack power at all and could only resort to self-destruction in exchange for one. The news that the Qun Yu Pavilion was preparing to rebuild prompted these researchers to submit proposals for the Qun Yu Pavilion's reconstruction.
Lin Zixuan looked at the renovation proposal reports on the desk and was a little unsure for a moment. After all, it was her private property. If it became an armed version of the Qun Yu Pavilion, she might be criticized again. However, the previous one-for-one exchange was indeed too poor.
Under Ningguang's suspicious eyes, Xuanyuan Company undertook the construction of the base of the Qunyu Pavilion. Countless new ideas and new plans of scientific researchers were placed in front of Lin Zixuan. Expandable array floating stones, super-speed propulsion devices, GN positions...
In this way, under Lin Zixuan's instruction, the 2.5th generation U-shaped huge high temperature ray generator was urgently produced. Of course, it was made secretly.
Why do you do this secretly? Your wife has a valuable bag, and you think it is for her own good. You are afraid that her bag will be stolen, so you sew a remote-controlled bomb inside her bag. If she finds out, will your wife explode?
"Report! The positron city-breaking cannon is ready for testing."
"let's start."
"The core is started and in good condition. The cooling device is in good condition. The lightning element energy storage device is 3% higher than the estimated data and is being readjusted. The position deflection generator is in a stable state..."
"Carry out the first test launch!" Then a white light shot into the sea in the distance.
"5% power test launch successful, experimental data is being acquired. Core energy loss is 2%, and replenishment is in progress. The test has entered the second phase..."
Lin Zixuan looked at the report and found that the maximum power could only reach 35%? This was 59 times the maximum power of the Type 7 tank.
Ordinary materials simply cannot withstand such high temperatures, so we can only use a field deflection generator to deflect the internal space so that the emitted high-temperature light does not come into contact with the inner wall at all.
Looking at this red-hot gun barrel, even if it is not touched, there is still a risk of melting with the help of a cooling device.
"Very good. I am very satisfied with the results this time. Please finish today's report and send it to my office. I will conduct the defense test tomorrow.
"Hmm? What are you doing with your heads down? Why aren't you talking?" Lin Zixuan looked at the report in his hand, glanced at the researchers in front of him, and felt a chill on his back.
"Lin... Zi... Xuan..." Ningguang's voice sounded from behind.
He turned his head mechanically and looked at Ningguang, whose forehead was already bulging with blue veins. Sweat was dripping down Lin Zixuan's face, and he laughed and said, "Lord Ningguang from Tianquan Star is here to inspect the construction of the base of Qun Yu Pavilion. Everyone welcomes him."
The crowd below looked at each other, not saying a word. After all, it was the boss's wife who paid their wages and benefits, not the boss.
"I remember that I gave you the blueprints of the base of the Jade Pavilion, right?"
"Yes."
"Is there this weapon inside the base of my Qun Yu Pavilion?"
"some!"
"Hiss..." The people below took a deep breath, and some secretly took out their cameras. The boss and his wife's "love" routine was about to begin again.
Sure enough, with a BOOM, someone broke through the roof and flew out.
Baiwen handed the new version of the Qun Yu Pavilion base design drawings on the table to Ningguang, who frowned as she read the designs.
"Make a copy of all the information and send it to me." Then he left.
The workers and researchers below began a discussion.
"I thought there was going to be a fight."
"You'll get used to it. It happens every once in a while."
"In fact, all of us old employees know why Mr. Xuan is so weak: he is afraid of being isolated."
"Yes! You should have heard of it! Ever since he displayed that gigantic Thousand Hands Condensed Light last month, old employees like me have trembling legs when seeing him in the institute.
There was also a younger girl who peed herself when she saw him. Master Xuan wanted to help her up, but she actually backed away, yelling, "Don't kill me."
"This is a symptom of fear caused by fear. Even if he doesn't do anything, you will be very afraid of him."
"So that's how it is. No wonder I thought Master Xuan didn't seem to have a bad temper."
"He actually never has a bad temper, unless... you commit the unforgivable sin."
"I heard that the executive officer of the Kingdom of Winter was sealed by him and is now useless. It seems that the Kingdom of Winter is still considering whether to pay some more price to ask Master Xuan to lift the seal."
"If Master Xuan continues to be so weak, I'm afraid his image will collapse in the eyes of many people, right?"
"Hey, you're still young. Don't think that the boss is so weak during the day and the boss's wife is so strong. At night, men will understand."
Countless male compatriots nodded in unison, understanding, understanding.
Lin Zixuan, who 'left' Mingyun Town, came to the Shimen border, waiting for the arrival of a special talent.
Although I told Ying not to worry, I didn't expect her to pack up and go to Mondstadt early that morning. Perhaps because they were short of money, they didn't use the teleportation anchor point and opened treasure chests all over the mountains along the way.
Today at the Shimen border, she met an important figure whom she had been searching for for a long time but who had not appeared yet, but who appeared at this point in time: Astrologis Mona Megistus.
"You want to look for your brother's traveling companion in Mondstadt. Going now will be fruitless."
"How did you know?" Paimon's voice generator started to work.
"I also know: You don't belong to our world."
"Didn't that big bad guy tell you?" Paimon looked at the girl who was dressed like a witch.
"That's really rude, because what I know is real 'astrology'."
......
However, they encountered difficulties when passing the Liyue border checkpoint.
"Miss, we in Liyue welcome any legal travelers to travel to Liyue. You said that your temporary entry and exit documents were lost. But I checked all the travel records, and there is no record related to you in the General Affairs Department." A captain of the Qianyan Army with the Grass Elemental God's Eye flipped through the information in his hand.
"..."
Another Qianyan Army member knocked on the door and walked in, handing over the information in his hand. The captain of the Qianyan Army looked at the latest information in his hand and his tone softened a little.
"It's no use being silent! He came to Liyue on the Fontaine ship a week ago, but he didn't get off the ship to register. Instead, he swam ashore near the New City Port and stayed at the Zhu Family Inn for a few days, as if he was waiting for someone."
"!!!!!!"
"It seems that you have waited for the person you wanted to wait for. The Honorary Knight of Mondstadt, the Great Hero of Liyue: Miss Ying." Captain Qianyan Army looked at a piece of paper behind the information again.
"You have entered the country illegally, deceived the Qianyan Army, and resisted law enforcement. You should be executed according to the law."
"Hey, does this mean we have to kill you for such a small matter?" Paimon said, and the three of them widened their eyes.
"If you want to stay alive, it's very simple. Just sign this!" Captain Qianyan put the documents on the table behind him, and pulled out a contract from the back of the documents. Three big words "Sale Contract" were hung above the paper.
【Astrologis Mona Megistus voluntarily joined Liyue and worked for Liyue for 50 years. 】
Mona's heart was like a thousand horses galloping, and countless "civilized language" emerged. The disaster the old woman had said had come true. It turned out that she absolutely could not come to Liyue.
If I had known earlier, I would have saved some money and taken a boat directly to Mondstadt. If I hadn't bought a new book, I would have been short of money and would have had to disembark in Liyue. Ah! Is this fate?
The old woman said that they couldn't escape this disaster, and that following the hero of Mondliyue would be much better. Mona looked at Ying with a pleading look.
Ying looked at Paimeng and scanned the document with her eyes. Paimeng understood immediately, and his body gradually sank under the table and flew under the document.
The captain of the Qianyan army seemed not to have noticed Paimon running away. He stared at Mona, waiting for her to sign her name on the contract.
Paimon saw the first page of the data file: [Astrologis Mona Megistus, if you meet this person at the border, you can try to trick her into signing a contract. Her ability is very important to Liyue. If it is impossible, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely do not make enemies with her. This strongest astrologer can easily become a curse sorcerer.]
Paimeng looked at the document and saw Lin Zixuan's signature at the back, and he understood it instantly. It was clear that they would be deported after working for a period of time, so how did it become a serious crime punishable by death? So that's how it was.
"Humph, you guys are helping that big bad guy do bad things again!"
"Did you find out?"
"Ms. Astrologis Mona Megistus, we in Liyue sincerely invite you to become one of our members."
"I reject."
"Liyue can provide the most advanced astrological props and various rare academic documents. We can provide you with 100 billion Mora of funds every year."
"100 billion Mora!!!" The three were shocked by such extravagance.
"I still don't want to be tied down here."
"But it is a fact that you entered the country illegally. If we in Liyue follow the rules, you will have to work in the mines for half a year before being deported. Do you want Liyue to follow the rules, or not?"
"I..." Mona lowered her head.
"Hey! Didn't that bad guy say that he didn't want to make enemies? Why are you still like this..."
“I’m sorry, although our superiors asked us not to make enemies, that is still based on the premise of abiding by Liyue’s rules.
For example, if you, a little kid, peeked at Liyue's confidential information, you should be imprisoned for 30 years. But since you have Liyue citizenship, we can just criticize and educate you. "
The captain of the Qianyan Army showed them the front of the folder. The two big words "Confidential" were printed in front of them, but the three words "Expired" in the lower left corner were blocked by his fingers.
"What? You want to lock me up for 30 years!!!" Paimon covered his mouth in surprise.
"Paimeng, we have the magic weapon ID card, which belongs to Liyue, so we can be exempted from punishment."
"Ms. Mona, I have only worked in the mines for half a year. My hands are covered with calluses. Carrying hundreds of pounds of rocks in and out of the mines leaves deep marks that cannot be erased.
Sometimes you will break a hand or a leg. Just extend your working hours in the mines, and you should be able to get through it easily. Don't worry, if you encounter an accident, we will send your body back."
"!!!!!!"
"I'm increasingly feeling that this asking-for-a-beaten tone is very much like that of someone else." Paimon crossed his arms across his chest, staring at the captain of the Thousand Rocks Army.
"I signed it." Mona broke the water divination plate in the air and wrote her name on the indenture. "This is damn fate."
“How can it be called a damn fate? You should feel lucky. After all, you have the full support of a country. It doesn’t matter if you live in Mondstadt. Liyue will provide you with a lot of material support, but you need to copy a copy of your academic report to Liyue.” Captain Qianyan took out a wooden box.
"It's you, you big bad guy!" Paimon saw the wooden box that suddenly appeared and remembered that there was also one in Ying's backpack, so he stomped his feet angrily.
"Mona was reserved by Liyue several years ago. After all, she actually dared to divine an immortal, so it is only right that she receives a little punishment. As for whether it is a punishment or a reward, it depends on what she thinks."
Mona pouted and muttered quietly, "Obviously he is a shameless god."
Chapter 148 Destiny
"I knew it was you, the bad guy." Paimon stomped his feet in the air even more angrily when he saw someone regain his true face.
"What's wrong with me? Don't slander me!" Lin Zixuan opened the small wooden box, which contained a pile of various documents and keys. He placed them in front of Mona one by one.
"If you make someone sign a contract to sell themselves, aren't you still a bad guy?"
"Selling body indenture? Take another look?"
A question mark appeared above Paimon's head. He flew to Mona's side and looked at the "indenture" on the table.
“Hey!!! I clearly saw ‘Selling Body Contract’! How did it become ‘Liyue Special Talent Contract Employment Contract’? Ying, you saw it too, right?”
Ying looked at Lin Zixuan, wanting to know the answer.
"It's just a small shielding magic, so that you can only see the surface of the paper. This is also a small test for Mona. I wanted to see if she is really better than her master in divination. I am very satisfied with the result."
"Is Mona stronger than her master?" Little Paimon asked in surprise.
