Chapter 739

The Tsaritsa: "I agree with the statements of Morax and Barbatos.

I once loved humans, and the people of Khaenri'ah are also human, so I chose to believe in them and was willing to provide them with a certain degree of protection in places where the Heavenly Principles could not see.

In my view at the time, what bad intentions could humans possibly have?

But now I realize that I was wrong before.

Humans have both good and bad; some humans' evil is carved into their bones, just like the people of Khaenri'ah.

Although they are all human, you cannot truly treat them as humans; if you are kind to the people of Khaenri'ah, your own people will also fall into dire straits."

Venti: "Not necessarily, really not necessarily; among those desert people, there are still quite a few who can be saved. According to the information I know, in the Sumeru desert now, there are still forty percent of people willing to recognize Nahida as the Dendro Archon."

Nahida: "Indeed, the people of Sumeru and Khaenri'ah are still different.

No matter how problematic the desert people are, they haven't fallen to the same level as the people of Khaenri'ah."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata: "Indeed, the hatred the people of Khaenri'ah have for the continent of Teyvat is already branded into their bones.

But the desert people are not quite there yet; although they have selfish motives, they have no intention of betraying the continent of Teyvat."

The locations of most of the gods were investigated by the Tsaritsa, but according to the Tsaritsa's words, the Pyro Archon is currently in a deep sleep.

The personalities of many people in the desert are cruel, stopping at nothing to achieve their goals; this is related to the desert's unique culture and environment.

Of course, there are good people in the desert, but in my view, most of the tribes are problematic, and they are also barbaric.

However, this time, it is a good opportunity for Nahida."

Nahida: "Is there some kind of opportunity?"

Nahida has one hundred percent trust in Seeing Mu Yang; her feelings for Seeing Mu Yang are very special, as it was Seeing Mu Yang who rescued her from that five-hundred-year prison.

Facing such kindness, it would be a lie to say Nahida is not grateful.

Seeing Mu Yang and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata are essentially husband and wife, so can she be considered Seeing Mu Yang's daughter?

But this father-child relationship is also strange; at least Nahida always feels a special sensation.

After all, she is also considered the reincarnation of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, not just a simple daughter, so Nahida's attitude toward Seeing Mu Yang is very complex, but if Seeing Mu Yang wants to do something for her, Nahida will not refuse.

Seeing Mu Yang: "Aren't there quite a few people in the desert who have defected to you now?

This way, you can arrange for those who have surrendered to you to enter those oases.

At that time, you can also declare that you will bring oases to the desert, giving them a happy and fulfilling life, without needing to live a life on the edge of a blade.

At the same time, you also welcome those who are willing to recognize you and recognize Sumeru to join."

Zhong Li: "A good method of absorption, division, and suppression."

Venti: "Hehe, under such circumstances, if they are still unwilling to join Nahida's side, it seems there is no need to keep them.

After all, Sumeru is also your territory.

Moreover, I have paid attention to the Eremites; many of the Eremites seem to live by robbing and plundering.

Such forces and organizations need to be eliminated in any nation, right?

Especially on the premise that you, Nahida, want to develop the desert."

Nahida: "To be honest, I haven't thought about how to develop the desert side yet; after all, compared to the rainforest, it is indeed too difficult for the desert to develop.

The only thing I can do now is to slowly develop the oases in the desert.

Seeing Mu Yang killing the Dendro Dragon and the Nail of Cold Sky previously is, to me, a pretty good opportunity.

I can use the Dendro Dragon's corpse to do many things.

With my current strength, it is very difficult to develop large-scale oases in the desert; I can only slowly improve my own strength and then use my authority as the Dendro Archon to change all of this.

But now that I have the Dendro Dragon's corpse, it's different; although it is dead, the rich Dendro energy within its body, combined with my efforts, is enough to transform half of the desert into oases, or even rainforests, through subtle influence."

The area of the Sumeru desert is very large; everyone knows this, but the others in the chat group have no intention of running to the desert.

Perhaps taking a look is fine, but if they were to live in the desert for ten days or half a month, even a Sumeru native like Nilou would feel uncomfortable, let alone others.

If Nahida could turn half of the desert into oases, it would definitely be a huge enhancement for Sumeru.

After all, that is a place that can produce food.

And in the past, Sumeru has always been the largest food producer and exporter on the continent of Teyvat.

Even a wealthy nation like Liyue often chooses to import food from Sumeru.

There is no other way; who makes the Dendro Archon's authority so useful? The crop yield cannot be compared to ordinary land.

And if a large part of the desert in Sumeru turns into oases and rainforests, then in the future, Sumeru can also produce more food.

Nahida: "Luring those desert people with oases?

That is indeed a good idea!

If even this cannot move them, then the remaining people are indeed not on the same path as us.

At that time, it will be necessary to take action against them."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata: "Based on my understanding of the desert people, some desert people might not choose to defect to you, Nahida.

Instead, they might want to occupy the oases, and their actions would be equivalent to a declaration of war against you.

At that time, even if you slaughter them, no one will be able to say anything."

Seeing Mu Yang: "Indeed, although I do not deny that there will be some good people among those desert people, at the same time, they also have many people who will not act without profit, and will even stop at nothing for their own goals.

You cannot reason with them.

Moreover, Nahida now also needs to show strength, unless you want to see an eighth nation established on the continent of Teyvat."

The Tsaritsa: "And that nation has no god; how fitting that is with Khaenri'ah!"

The current Tsaritsa cannot go three sentences without mentioning Khaenri'ah.

It is very clear that the previous Tsaritsa was also angered by the people of Khaenri'ah.

Now Inazuma is saying that Seeing Mu Yang is the consort of the Raiden Shogun; logically speaking, Sara needs to be as respectful to Seeing Mu Yang as she is to the Raiden Shogun.

If there were a chance to return to the past, to the war five hundred years ago, I fear this Tsaritsa would slaughter Khaenri'ah without hesitation, right?

Nahida: "Don't say anymore; although the desert wasn't Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's territory at first, this was planned by the Heavenly Principles, and I have no intention of being a god who loses sovereignty and humiliates the nation.

If possible, I will retain more people, but if someone wants to divide Sumeru, I will absolutely not allow it.

These people are also the most easily tempted by the people of Khaenri'ah in the future.

I will not let them go."

If it were the Nahida of the past, she would absolutely not do this; she was a god with a saintly heart, wanting to save everything.

Even at the cost of her own life.

But now these guys are a group of hidden dangers, and Nahida will not be overly kind to them.

If these guys end up as insane as the Red King, directly inviting the wolf into the house, then the entire continent of Teyvat will fall into crisis.

Even now, Nahida won't even leave a chance for the Red King to have believers.

After Nahida read some knowledge from Blue Star, she clearly knew that some beliefs are not worth keeping; sometimes, the conflict of beliefs is even sharper than the interests between the two sides.

Nahida herself didn't like the Red King; he was a madman, so she might as well extinguish his faith completely.

If she could, Nahida wouldn't even mind tearing down the so-called Mausoleum of King Deshret; there is no corpse of the Red King inside anyway.

The Red King's bones have long since vanished.

Seeing Mu Yang: ". Hmm, indeed very good, Nahida, I have high hopes for you!
