Chapter 782 What is the Development of Civilization (Part 1)
Su Zhen's words caused Xin Hai and Ya Chong Shen Zi to exchange a glance.
It seems that their ideas always come together at certain times.
Since they used the same tactic in the "future," they don't know what they said in the "future," or whether what they are about to say will be the same as what they said in the "future," but they can only continue talking now.
"No, Su Zhen, what we want to tell you is why you lost your development," Xin Hai spoke again.
"The reason I lost development is because I didn't occupy all of the Void Tree! My power is not as strong as the Void Tree's. The Void Tree took what was mine first, and it doesn't care about a single thing about civilization!" Su Zhen shouted.
"If you think that only plunder can ensure the development of civilization, have you ever seen the flame of civilization continue after its destruction?" Xin Hai retorted instantly.
"How come I've never seen it? The embers of a civilization are gradually reviving, but is the revived civilization the same as the original one? No, it's just another civilization that has grown with time and environment. They have long lost the core of the previous civilization."
“That’s not called a spark, that’s called another civilization taking root and sprouting in the ruins of the previous civilization,” Su Zhen retorted, while simultaneously throwing a punch at Qi Fu.
Qi Fu remained silent, but he took the punch to protect Xin Hai and the Eightfold Divine Child.
"I see, is that what you're thinking?" Yae no Miko spoke up, her gaze towards Su Jin filled with pity.
"What do you mean?" Su Zhen naturally saw that look in his eyes and sensed the sadness that the Eighth Divine Child felt for her.
“I lament that you, being a civilization, do not understand the essence of civilization,” Yae no Kamiko said again.
"You think you're qualified to talk to me about civilization?" Su Zhen retorted.
"Heh, a human? Too bad I'm not human, I'm a demon, a fox demon!" Yae no Miko laughed.
“Su Zhen, let me ask you a question: what do you think civilization is made of?” Yae no Miko asked again.
"Of course it's people!" Su Zhen answered the question without hesitation.
“Alright, since that’s the case, let’s have a debate. You are the concept of civilization, a god, not a human, and I am not a human either. In your mind, I should not be included in the definition of civilization. So let’s talk about our definition of the word ‘civilization’ from the perspective of a third party, shall we?” Yae no Kamiko said leisurely.
"Your tricks have changed!" Su Zhen sneered upon hearing Yae no Miko's words, then her expression changed.
"But I don't want to listen to your nonsense!" Su Zhen shouted, and then threw another punch at Qi Fu.
Qifu Concept Divine Body
"This Su Zhen is just like Xu Shu back then, she won't listen to advice." Barbara said helplessly as she watched this scene.
“Many gods are arrogant; how could they be as calm and composed as my husband?” Ayaka Kamisato shook her head.
“It’s just that we haven’t grasped her true feelings,” Yumezuki Mizuki added.
Navia: "Fortunately, our interference is only supplementary, and my dear also deduced that Su Zhen wouldn't listen too much."
"In the end, we still need to rely on Qi Fu to defeat her head-on, and on what Xi Lian has prepared!" Fukaros looked at Xi Lian.
"Stop talking! Quickly gather all the stories you've prepared and send them to the Divine Child. Xin Hai will use human language to reason with her, the Divine Child will use stories to influence Su Zhen's thinking, and Qi Fu will use power to defeat her head-on. This is our coordinated battle plan!" Ying shouted in dissatisfaction.
This plan was devised by the women after Qi Fu reminded them that the concept needed to be developed through a specific mechanism to defeat her.
Su Zhen had already experienced Qi Fu and the women's battle in the 'future', so the solution they came up with now would definitely overlap with Su Zhen's experience.
In other words, persuasion is doomed to failure; it cannot change Su Zhen's mind. Although it cannot change Su Zhen's mind, it does not mean that it cannot make Su Zhen lose her composure.
There are also some points to note about how to make Su Zhen lose her focus. The key point is the concept of civilization. Su Zhen is civilization, so she is destined to be unable to escape civilization and will have to pay attention to it.
The words of Yae no Miko just now were merely to divert Su Jin's thoughts to another side; the various stories and novels about civilizations were the women's ultimate intervention tactic.
Moreover, this is also a gamble, betting that Su Zhen, who has lost the development of civilization, will definitely not pay attention to those fantasy novels and stories within the civilization.
Now, Su Zhen has gone so far as to obtain this special Honkai power by destroying herself, making the women feel that Su Zhen has never paid attention to human fantasies.
So this is also part of the mechanism. If you bet wrong, it's okay, since the purpose of intervention has been achieved. If you bet right, then you've won the lottery.
However, although they have figured out a way to follow the established procedures, there is still a problem.
“That’s true, but how many stories can a few of us gather in an instant? Even though I’ve read a lot of books, it’s still quite difficult for me,” Sitralli said, clutching her head in a flustered manner.
"I don't have any good stories either. I can only talk about the fall of the Grammer Empire, but I'm afraid this story won't have much impact on Su Zhen," Liu Ying said, somewhat flustered.
“Since you can’t come up with a story, then let’s find someone else. We’re not the only ones fighting behind us,” Xi Lian suggested.
"What do you mean, Xi Lian?" Fukalos understood Xi Lian's thoughts in an instant.
“Yes, let’s find people from our world to share our stories of civilization with Su Zhen!” Xi Lian nodded, then looked up and shouted at Qi Fu.
"My dear, do you still have the extra strength for us to connect with our own world?"
This is a vast space between the worlds of trees and seas, which cannot be connected to by any other force. Therefore, another force is needed to connect Teyvat and the Fourth World.
Qi Fu still did not respond, because Su Zhen's attack was too fierce, and he had no time to respond to Xi Lian's words. However, a beam of seven-colored light shone down on Qi Fu's conceptual divine body.
Seeing the beam of light, the women immediately showed expressions of joy; now they should be able to collect enough stories.
Soon, the women in the Five Stars Group began sending out messages, asking those who saw them to collect stories and novels related to the development of civilization.
Although some people were initially puzzled by these messages, and many did not see them, responses came quickly.
Fukalos's private chat
King of the Great Compassionate Tree: I saw the message. I was just worried about not being able to see how things were going. How are you doing now? Why are you in such a hurry for stories of civilization?
Upon hearing the words of the Great Tree King, Fukaros slapped his forehead.
"Oh dear, how could I forget the Great Tree of Compassion, the walking World Tree! When it comes to matters of civilization, she is the one who knows the most about Tivatri!"
