Genshin Impact: The Great Evil Dragon’s Death System

Chapter 1066: What Will Our Liyue Become?

Keqing savored it carefully and looked at Jing Fantian for a second longer. She didn't expect that Jing Fantian could say such philosophical words.

It doesn't sound like something that can be said by someone with his crazy personality, but rather something that can be said by someone like the Emperor who is well-read and has experienced the ups and downs of history.

We have fully seen that the history of human development is a spiral of upward movement and repeated progress.

Jing Fantian told Keqing the history of Mondstadt. In his opinion, the history of Mondstadt should better reflect the future of Liyue without gods and immortals to take care of it.

"After the wind god Barbatos defeated the Lone King of the Tower and overthrew Old Mondstadt, he established New Mondstadt."

"He used divine wind to blow away the ice and snow, split the mountains, and chose an island in the middle of the lake with a pleasant climate and convenient transportation as the land of New Mond."

"Barbatus chose the land for his people and then fell into a deep sleep, leaving everything to his people to govern themselves."

"He probably believed that his people would be fine and would not be affected by the storm again."

"However, he still underestimated the narrow-mindedness of human beings."

"After Barbatos left, the groups or heroes that had been famous in the Old Mondstadt uprising were recognized by the Mondstadt people. Their descendants began to combine into several clans, and slowly developed and rose to become the aristocracy of Mondstadt."

"The nobles were formed with great vitality in the early days. They have positive significance."

"The Lawrence family built a statue of the God of Wind in the huge square of Mondstadt and left a vow under the statue to protect Mondstadt forever."

"The nobles remember their obligations and strictly discipline themselves. The lords and the people hunt together and share the harvest together."

"As time went by, Mondstadt seemed to have fallen into a vicious circle, and a clear gap began to form between the nobles and the common people."

"No civilian carriages are allowed on the road, no civilians are allowed to look directly at the high lord, no civilians are allowed to live in the central city, no civilians are allowed to..."

"Although the tyrant of the fierce wind is gone, the tyrants belonging to the human race have emerged, and they are the group of powerful people and nobles."

"They built a tall tower in Mondstadt's square, nominally to commemorate the wind god Barbatos, but in reality it was a symbol of the nobles asserting their power."

"During the annual Badminton Festival, the nobles will select the most beautiful girl to throw the badminton. After the celebration, the girl will enjoy three days of aristocratic life in the noble court."

"The nobles said they were protecting her, but in fact it was a feast of nobles abusing the girl."

"Maybe people will even place bets on whose child the girl will get pregnant with, and who will get the baby out before the pregnancy is over to decide the winner."

Keqing turned pale, sweated profusely, and even had difficulty breathing after hearing what Jing Fantian said.

At this time, Master Mao came up with golden shrimp balls. Seeing that Keqing's face looked unusual, he became concerned.

"Keqing, what's wrong with you?"

Keqing wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a tissue and replied to Master Mao with a smile: "Master Mao, I'm fine. It's a little hot."

Master Mao didn't believe it and said to Jing Fantian: "Your Highness, don't be too rough with your girlfriend."

Jing Fantian smiled and responded perfunctorily. It seemed that Master Mao blamed Jing Fantian for his brutal treatment of Keqing.

After Master Mao left, Keqing picked up a golden shrimp ball and put it into her mouth, slowly calming down.

She had never properly understood the history of Mondstadt.

Now that I've heard what Jing Fantian said, isn't Mond's Dark Ages a tragedy after losing the constraints of the gods?

"Without the restraint of God, will humanity really be a tragedy?"

Jing Fantian tries to predict Liyue, a place without gods and immortals.

"Liyue can still survive without the Emperor and the Immortal. Everyone will be strong after the initial confusion. You will find that even if you follow the opposite policy of the Emperor, everything will be fine, because the Emperor and the Immortal are really gone."

"The enlightened Seven Stars of Liyue will guide Liyue onto the path of human rule and begin to prune away some of the bad habits of the Age of Gods. Everyone will no longer have a copy of the Emperor's Quotations in their hands."

“People are starting to take charge and decide the future of Liyue themselves.”

"Because there are no immortals, people can cut down nature at will. Aozang Mountain, Qingyun Peak, Jueyunjian..."

"In the past, the forbidden land of immortals has gradually seen the emergence of human factories."

"Liyue will enter an era of rapid development and rule by man, with freer thinking, a more prosperous economy, and higher living standards."

"Everyone will sing praises of the era of human rule, despise the ignorant era of gods and immortals, and then completely forget the former Rock King."

“When the enlightened Seven Stars of Liyue grow old, or are unable to curb the huge power of the Chamber of Commerce, the problems of Liyue’s human rule era will be exposed one by one.”

"First of all, the election system of the Seven Stars of Liyue. Without the support of the Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible for someone like Ningguang to want to get his hands on the sword of power in Liyue without the support of any forces."

"The Liyue Seven Stars will gradually become the spokespersons for the Chamber of Commerce, and the General Affairs Department will also be occupied by representatives of various merchants. Liyue is no longer everyone's Liyue, but the Liyue of merchants."

"Everyone will find that land prices are getting higher and higher. If you want to buy a house in Liyue Harbor, you will sacrifice your whole life."

"But I couldn't let go of the advanced life in the city and didn't want to live a hard life in the countryside. I mocked the Chamber of Commerce for its evil intentions, but my body was honest and became a slave to the merchants."

"One after another, the rebels who were dissatisfied with the Chamber of Commerce took to the streets and were hanged. The merchants introduced laws that benefited the merchants and executed the rebels."

"The prosperous Liyue Harbor is still prosperous, with large ships returning fully loaded and countless Mora piled up like mountains."

"But without the incense from the emperor and the immortals, Mora has become the exclusive domain of the rich."

"Then, on a night when merchants were reveling, the slave workers, unable to bear it any longer, set fire to Liyue Harbor. Screams, pleas for mercy, and sounds of fighting could be heard one after another."

"Merchants fled, were hung on ships, or thrown into the sea to feed sharks."

"When the next morning begins, people will see that Liyue Harbor has become a burnt ruin, and then the workers who revolt will establish a new system."

"The new system declares that everyone is equal, and does not allow for the emergence of rich people or oppression."

"The heroes of the uprising established an era that belonged to the people, but their descendants seemed to be cursed, gilding their own bloodline and identity, and ruthlessly cutting themselves off from ordinary people."

"A new struggle has begun! The curse of humanity has begun again!"

Keqing couldn't eat the golden shrimp balls anymore. According to Jing Fantian's prophecy, they were just a group of poor creatures who were constantly reincarnating.

"Keqing, tell me, what's wrong with an era ruled by gods and immortals? At least people won't fight among themselves, and ordinary people won't be chopped off by leeks over and over again."

"Have you ever heard of anyone rising up against the Emperor in these 3,700 years?"

"Now let me tell you that what the people of Liyue need most is stability. If they don't need it now, they will become obedient after experiencing a catastrophe."

"Who else can achieve this kind of stability except gods and immortals? Chaos is caused by human greed. Do you think we can rely on you to achieve stability?"
