Chapter 817
"Khaenri'ah is a nation without gods.
We need more power to resist the gods; ordinary strength is simply not enough to oppose them.
Moreover, above the Seven Archons, there exist even more powerful entities." Dainsleif said to Lumine with a pointed look: "There was once another godless nation, and it was annihilated by the Heavenly Principles.
And that place, you should have already visited it."
"The nation of the snow-capped mountains, Sal Vindagnyr!" Lumine stated the name directly.
Dainsleif nodded slightly upon hearing this; it seems this 737th traveler has also investigated quite a lot during this period.
This proves that Lumine has not truly been led astray by others during this time.
To be honest, even though Dainsleif has investigated a great deal during this time, he has not uncovered Seeing Mu Yang's true identity.
The other party is very likely the Fifth Descender; otherwise, he would not possess such strength, which is already more powerful than Lumine and Aether.
It is just unclear if there is a gap in strength compared to the First Descender and the Second Descender.
"In the eyes of Khaenri'ah, it is true that the gods love humanity, but we also need to have our own strength, and furthermore, the Heavenly Principles are also restricting human development.
As humans, we cannot always be under the protection of the gods; we must have our own dignity." Dainsleif pondered for a moment and continued.
"But wanting to develop does not mean one can foolishly introduce the power of the Abyss; this not only harms oneself but also harms the entire Teyvat continent." Lumine sneered with disdain: "Moreover, according to my investigation, your Khaenri'ah was also a country with a strict hierarchy, right?
You had a royal family, you had nobles, and you also had all sorts of sordid dealings.
On the surface, you did not want the protection of the gods, you did not want to be exploited.
But in reality, you were suffering from all kinds of exploitation by the royal family and the nobles, weren't you?"
"This..." Dainsleif was helpless upon hearing Lumine's words.
Even for him, when mentioning the events of the past, he felt a wave of helplessness; Lumine's statement was a fact.
The so-called dignity of Khaenri'ah, looking back now, was actually more about maintaining the interests of those people.
But Khaenri'ah did indeed belong to the glory of humanity!
If it were only for those nobles, Dainsleif would not have worked so hard all these years.
(Seeking flowers, seeking monthly tickets, seeking automatic subscriptions, mwah, love you all!).
