Genshin Impact, I'm Slime

Chapter 444 Puppet God
"So that's the case... It's a pity that their piety is used in the wrong place."

Many secrets were narrated by Ye Lan, which caused Famas to sigh with emotion in a tone of sarcasm or pity.

At this moment, Ye Lan put away a small fragment of the wish stone on the table, then raised her hand and tapped lightly on the corner of the table in the private room of the tea room.

Wen Yuan, who was wearing a navy blue hood, appeared at the door of the room with a few pieces of document paper, quickly placed the documents on Ye Lan's desktop, and then turned and left.

Famas naturally recognized that Wen Yuan who entered the room to submit the information was the intelligence officer who had just watched him, but he didn't say much, just looked curiously at the documents on Yelan's desk.

Seeing that the other party really didn't pursue Wen Yuan's offense, Ye Lan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it takes incalculable resources and energy to cultivate an excellent intelligence officer.

"This is the information gathered by many parties after the [Wishing Stone] case is over."

Ye Lan arranged the materials in chronological order and handed them to the boy in red.

And Famas was also surprised by the complicated forces involved in the case after briefly reading the whole story of the wishing stone case.

Three years ago, after the front-line personnel in the stratum rock mining area sorted out the data of [Wishing Stone], the first thing they submitted was not Yujingtai, but the Huishan Office in charge of Liyue Mining. At that time, the person in charge of the Huishan Office immediately blocked the matter development zone, and healthy miners are required to continue mining ore.

This situation lasted for several months, and it was not until the abnormal situation of the rock giant abyss was out of control that Huishan Hall reported to Seven Stars to deal with it. After Ningguang learned of the specific situation, he immediately dismissed the person in charge of Huishan Hall. And teamed up with the other six stars to seal the entrance to the layered rock abyss.

However, the blockade of the mining area has made it difficult for Shengluting, which mainly deals in porcelain. The mineral [glass crystal sand] produced in the strata rock mining area is an important raw material for porcelain. It is hoped that the layer rock mining area will resume work. The leading industry representative, Ruoyu, even approached Ningguang directly to negotiate, and said that he would personally participate in the resumption investigation.

And the underground salt mine mining in Yinyuan Hall was also affected. They had a surplus of tax revenue directly cut in half, so they could only reluctantly lay off employees, relying on drying sea salt and several old mines of the Black Rock Factory to maintain departmental expenditures, which can almost be said to be lingering.

But the impact of the blockade of the bedrock mines goes far beyond that.

At this moment, there are two kinds of conflicts within Liyue. One is the production safety department represented by Qixing.

On the other side is the Liyue business community represented by Shenglu Hall, Huishan Hall, and Yinyuan Hall. They demanded that the layered rock mining area resume work as soon as possible on the grounds that the blockade caused economic downturn and massive unemployment.

At the same time, the fools who smelled the secret also began to negotiate with Seven Stars, expressing their willingness to send elite soldiers to the layered rock abyss to investigate, and to share the obtained data samples with the General Affairs Department in charge of logistics.

Although the reputation of the Fools was not very good at that time, there was no national and family hatred with Liyue. Since the Fools volunteered to become warriors exploring the dangers of the front line, Ningguang certainly had no reason to refuse, and even promised the Fools' vanguard army in the stratum rock The General Affairs Department is willing to provide free of charge within a moderate range the logistics materials needed in the Juyuan mining area.

Even the fairy family far away from the world of Liyue has noticed the closure of the mine. It is rumored that in the middle of the night, the Qianyan Army who is guarding the gate of the stratum surface mining area will occasionally meet a young man with flower arms wearing a sleeveless blue dress. Patrolling around the mouth, it seems to be looking for something.

"Make a wish to the sky to resurrect a dead god..."

Famas put down the paper in his hand, as if he was really thinking about the possibility of Yinyuan Hall's success.

Now Heulia has borrowed the grass slime's body to resurrect, but that Miss Ning Lan obviously doesn't know about it yet. If Yinyuan Hall uses the wish stone to resurrect the gods they believe in according to the plan, the people on the Nativat Continent will be resurrected. Could it be that there will be two demon gods of salt?
Ye Lan seemed to have guessed what Famas was thinking. Seeing the boy put down the paper, she nodded slightly, and added:
"As early as the beginning of this matter, I have been ordered to participate in the investigation of this matter. Since the blockade of the stratum rock abyss, everything related to the wish stone has been listed as the highest priority information, and all information will be directly gathered to me. .”

"In the past few years, the various forces in Liyue have made countless efforts to reopen the stratum rock abyss...Since the mine was closed because the wish stone was harmful, in turn, as long as it can be proved that the stone is harmless, Or if you can control a certain power in the stone, it will naturally be unsealed."

There was a mocking smile on Ye Lan's face. According to her investigation, the Yinyuan Hall was by no means the only force that wanted to organize the ceremony of inviting immortals without authorization.

"The strata rock mining area has been blocked for three years, and Huishan Hall's tens of billions of moras of profits have come to naught. Bankrupt miners are even willing to trade the lives of their wives and children for the stratum rock giant abyss to open mines."

"Although the order to close the mine is just a thin piece of paper, for some people it is nothing more than a murderous blade that destroys the family. The interests involved are too great, blocking the way of too many people, not only The merchants of Liyue, and even the fools of Zhidong."

"I have been dealing with fools for a long time. They want to break the seal more than most Liyue people, and go to the depths of the bottomless abyss to explore the truth of the so-called world."

"Your Majesty Harpas, you were also in power in one country. In your opinion, under the pressure of such a powerful situation, public opinion, and public opinion, how did the rock giant abyss be sealed until today?"

The corners of Ye Lan's mouth curled up, her smile was like a seductive orchid blooming at midnight.

Famas just looked down at the red tea soup in the teacup in front of him, the calm tea reflected his indifferent face.

"...Morax."

The boy quickly figured out what the problem was, and casually said the name of Emperor Yanwang.

"That's right, the emperor has shouldered all the pressure. As long as he is around for a day, no one will dare to do anything wrong. Even if he doesn't show up, as long as the emperor is still there, it will be a big blow to the Liyue family and the surrounding countries. invisible deterrent."

Ye Lan shrugged, and helplessly spread her hands.

"But even when the Rock King was still alive, people kept submitting experimental reports arguing that the "Wish Stone" was harmless, or claiming that they had successfully developed a stable way to use the power of the Wish Stone. "

"At that time, Qixing could still use the emperor's will as an excuse to delay. After the emperor left, these methods will only become more rampant."

That's the end of Yelan's narration, and Famas already fully understands what Liyue's aristocrats want to do.

When Munata was in power, he also faced the same problem.

Liyue has a stable domination system for 700 years. If there is no god at the top who silently assumes all responsibilities and cannot be blamed by anyone, many responsibilities will fall on the heads of the major families.

And Dijun Yanwang has faded out of Liyue's ruling system for a long time. He is an omnipotent god. The power and money of mortals are like dung to him. Everyone assumes responsibility for opening the mining area.

The miners just want Liyue to regain the obedient puppet god who shoulders all the responsibilities. As for whether this god is still the rock king, they don't care.

Yinyuan Hall also seized this opportunity. Heulia, the demon god of salt who is kind, benevolent, and dislikes war, is undoubtedly the god most needed by Liyue's upper class at the moment.

The frenzied merchants and aristocratic families didn't even want to wait for the end of the emperor's gift ceremony, so they prepared to organize the ceremony to welcome the new god.

But Zhongli himself seems to be ignorant of this.
