Genshin Impact: I, Heavenly Principle, Will Make Teyvat Supreme-Chapter 121: Those Who Harm Lolis Are Unworthy of Living in My Teyvat
Chapter 121 - Those Who Harm Lolis Are Unworthy of Living in My Teyvat
Noah stroked his chin.
"That's right, these two planetary worlds are parallel Earths from beyond the cosmology of the Imaginary Tree and Sea of Quanta."
"There's no need to be so surprised. The mysteries of the multiverse are endless, and nothing should be considered strange."
After receiving all the information, Jean couldn't help but say,
"These two worlds are both devoid of gods. A world like that is simply too cruel for humanity!"
Living in Mondstadt, a nation blessed by Lord Barbatos, the worst situation she could imagine was limited to the historical accounts of the Cataclysm five hundred years ago and the oppression of the people under the aristocracy.
But these two worlds were truly post-apocalyptic, civilizations on the brink of collapse, where even the slightest mistake could lead to humanity's extinction.
Not to mention the degeneration of human morals—especially in the second world, called Black Bullet, where little girls were abandoned and abused at birth, and being captured as weapons of war was the best fate they could hope for.
It was utterly absurd.
Alice, however, was largely unaffected. Having traveled through many such post-apocalyptic worlds, her resistance to such things was maxed out.
"This is simply what post-apocalyptic worlds look like."
"In ancient times, the First Throne of Teyvat was the protector of humanity. In this era, the gods are humanity's protectors."
"Whenever humanity strays toward destruction, the gods will pull them back. But in worlds without gods, destruction is inevitable."
"Among the 253 causes of human extinction, self-destruction accounts for the vast majority."
"Take these two worlds, for example—both were doomed by their own hands, one by the Gastrea Virus, the other by the Zombie Virus, leading to the collapse of civilization."
"In my travels through post-apocalyptic worlds, over 90% were caused by humans destroying themselves—sometimes even annihilating the entire planet."
These cold, hard facts shook Jean to her core.
"Humanity's self-destruction... that's just too difficult to comprehend."
Faced with this concept, Jean's mind felt dizzy.
She turned to look at Venti, her eyes filled with reverence and gratitude.
Come to think of it—if it weren't for Lord Barbatos's protection, wouldn't Mondstadt have headed toward self-destruction during the era of the old nobility?
Back then, the old nobles had planned to sacrifice Mondstadt's people to feed the draconic beast Ursa.
If Lord Barbatos hadn't sent the great hero Vennessa...
Venti, still carefully cradling his drink, shamelessly chuckled.
"Hehe, no need to thank me so much. I was just doing my duty."
"If humanity should thank anyone, it should be Lord Heavenly Principle."
"Lord Heavenly Principle is humanity's true protector."
Even among the gods, their love for humanity was an innate part of their divine nature.
And even with Lord Noah now serving as Heavenly Principle, this fact remained unchanged.
Which meant—Lord Noah also loved humanity.
Noah waved his hand.
"What I appreciate is only humanity's kindness."
"As for vile, despicable humans, to me, they are nothing more than monsters wearing human skin."
"Therefore, when it comes to these two worlds, I have only one request of you."
Noah's golden eyes were filled with indifference.
As his emotions shifted, an icy aura naturally radiated from him. Alice, Venti, and Jean felt a chill deep in their souls, as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
Hiss—
Alice instinctively swallowed. She understood all too well that the will of a being this powerful was absolute, as immutable as the very laws of the universe.
Just like the existences called Aeons in the great universe she had visited.
"Categorize humanity by good and evil. Those whose goodness outweighs their evil shall be spared. Those whose evil outweighs their goodness shall be eradicated."
"In the first world, you may judge good and evil at your own discretion."
"But in the second world, judgment shall be based on the extent of harm inflicted on those children."
"Those who have never harmed but have helped the children shall be deemed good."
"Those who have neither harmed nor helped the children shall be deemed neutral."
"Those who have harmed the children shall be deemed evil."
"And any who are deemed evil do not deserve to exist within my Teyvat Universe."
After finishing, Noah's mood settled.
He picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and the chilling aura around him vanished.
Then, with a smile, he said, "Alright, the mission has been assigned. Now, discuss among yourselves how you plan to proceed with the conquest."
Venti wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Even though wind spirits do not sweat, he had still been scared into sweating.
Just the natural fluctuation of Lord Noah's emotions had made him feel as if his very soul was on the verge of being silenced.
"Ahem... well, I think the first world is relatively simple and doesn't really require my involvement. Holders of Visions should be able to handle it."
At that, he turned to Alice.
"Alice, would you be interested in conquering the first world alone?"
Alice's red eyes sparkled.
"Conquering a parallel Earth alone?"
She was very interested—far too interested.
"Although the second world is more intriguing to me, both are parallel Earths. Ah, if only I had Sun Wukong's cloning ability."
Jean raised her hand.
"Miss Alice, if you're more interested in the second world, then leave the first world to me."
"That world poses no threat to me, and once its people recognize the existence of gods, our influence will expand rapidly."
"After all, that world consists entirely of ordinary humans. As a Vision holder, I am living proof of the existence of the divine."
Alice flashed a thumbs-up, winking playfully as she struck a cute pose.
"No problem! I'll leave it all to you. I'm heading to the second world to blow up Gastrea!"
Venti continued, "The Phase Five fully evolved Gastrea, known as the Zodiac Gastrea, will be my responsibility."
As Venti scanned the information within his mind, he couldn't help but sigh at the hardships faced by humanity in that world.
The Gastrea Virus was akin to slow suicide for humanity.
As time passed, humanity's living space would only continue to shrink, until its inevitable extinction.
Even ruthlessly training those special children infected with the virus into emotionless killing machines had done nothing more than slightly delay humanity's demise.
After all, the most effective weapon humanity had against the Gastrea—varanium metal—was only capable of killing Phase One Gastrea.
By Phase Two, Gastrea had already developed resistance to varanium and had acquired regenerative abilities.
By Phase Three, their regeneration had reached a level where cellular resonance allowed them to reconstruct themselves even if shattered into pieces.
Phase Four Gastrea could only be killed by being reduced to ashes—any fragment as small as an ant left behind could potentially regenerate.
By Phase Five, Gastrea had acquired god-like immortality, adapting to any environment within seconds—whether it be thousands of degrees of magma, absolute zero temperatures, or even achieving molecular-level regeneration.
Beyond immortality, fully evolved Gastrea also contained the genetic material and abilities of all organisms within Earth's biosphere.
These genes and abilities could be combined in countless ways to create a vast arsenal of attack methods—
Viruses, lasers, electricity, infrasound waves, air cannons, supersonic attacks... and every other means of destruction humanity had ever devised.
Two golden keys appeared in Noah's hand.
The system's basic permissions had been activated, so there was no longer any need for the system to make a grand spectacle of opening the World Gate.
He could now summon the World Gate directly.
No phenomena would manifest within the Teyvat Universe, but in the other worlds, phenomena would appear.
"There is no time to waste."
"Barbatos, God of Wind, Hope, and Freedom—in my name, go forth and save these worlds."
Venti accepted one of the World Gate keys and solemnly replied—
"Yes, Lord Heavenly Principle."
"I will not keep you waiting for long."
After obtaining the World Gate key, Venti did not use it in Mondstadt but instead went to the Divine Realm.
The environment here was identical to Mondstadt, essentially a miniature version of it.
Noah looked at Jean and spoke seriously.
"Jean Gunnhildr."
Jean quickly lowered her head respectfully.
Noah continued.
"You are very kind."
"I hope you will not tolerate the existence of evildoers, nor give them time to repent."
"You must remember—justice delayed is merely truth revealed; it is not true justice."
"The same applies to good and evil—a good deed at the end is merely atonement for prior evil."
Jean's heart hardened with determination.
"Yes, Lord Heavenly Principle. I will engrave this into my soul."
A god greater than even Lord Barbatos—his words could not possibly be wrong.
Having witnessed the moral collapse of humanity in both apocalyptic worlds, she was initially shocked and dazed.
But now, she understood even more clearly—in extraordinary times, extraordinary measures must be taken.
Mondstadt and those worlds were completely different.
What was right for Mondstadt might not apply to those places at all.
Alice placed her hands on her hips.
"Jean, it's actually very simple. Just have Lord Barbatos grant you some divine power, and you'll be able to distinguish good from evil."
Venti nodded.
"I was just about to suggest the same thing."
He clapped his hands, and a turquoise divine light appeared before him.
A one-handed sword materialized.
The blade appeared to be forged from blue crystal, emanating a faint glow.
The hilt was platinum-colored, embedded with a glowing blue gemstone, exuding an aura of divine elegance.
"This is Skyward Blade, crafted from a tooth shed by Dvalin."
"It carries my divine power and blessing—you could consider it a sacred artifact."
"I have imbued this sword with the Whispering Winds of Judgment, which will assess good and evil according to Lord Heavenly Principle's will."
"If the wielder encounters an evildoer, they will be entwined by the Whispering Winds."
"This sword will only strike down those ensnared by the Whispering Winds."
Jean extended her hands, solemnly receiving the Skyward Blade.
"Thank you, Lord Barbatos. I will not let you down."
Venti tossed the golden key in his hand into the air.
"Well then—time to save the world."
Jean also threw her golden key forward.
The golden keys emitted a blinding radiance, the light expanding continuously.
Buzz—
A massive golden gateway, over a hundred meters tall, emerged from the radiant glow.
An unfathomable supreme power enveloped Venti.
Venti understood—this supreme power would carry his words to those two apocalyptic worlds.
This divine miracle was crucial.
For the people of those worlds, who had already fallen into ruin, this miracle's influence alone would be enough to accomplish half of his mission.
Venti spoke softly.
[People of the apocalypse, hear my divine decree.]
[To stand in the light is to become a hero; to dwell in the shadows is to invite calamity.]
[Is courage not the same? Those who have lived an easy life will never grasp its true worth.]
[But when you are cornered by despair, courage will be the only light guiding you to rise and fight back.]
[My divine name is Barbatos, the God of Breeze and Hope under the Heavenly Principle.]
[I shall bless those who dwell within the apocalypse, bringing hope to the kind-hearted.]
[The gods love humanity, but they are not selflessly benevolent—hope and freedom shall not be bestowed upon evildoers.]
[Innocence and kindness are the most cherished treasures of the Heavenly Principle—may all of you hold them tightly.]
[Embrace kindness and innocence, wield courage as your weapon, and hope and salvation shall surely come to your side.]
Venti's voice, carrying the divine redemption for mortals, descended upon the two apocalyptic worlds through the supreme power.

Highschool of the Dead World
At this moment, the Zombie Virus had already spread silently through the air across the entire island nation.
People inhaled the virus while working, studying, or driving, and those with weak immunity were instantly infected, turning into the undead.
Within one minute, the entire city fell into paralysis.
The number of those infected and turned into undead instantly reached 30% of the nation's population.
This 30%, in turn, continued to attack and bite the uninfected around them.
Screams, vehicle collisions, and explosions echoed ceaselessly in every city of the nation.
In less than two hours, the undead had already reached half of the city's population and continued hunting down terrified, fleeing survivors.
"Ahhh! It hurts! Damn it, what's wrong with you all?! Why are you turning into this?!"
"Help! Don't run away—help me pull this bastard off me! Ahhh!"
"What the hell is happening?! This is just like... just like a zombie apocalypse movie!"
"Run!"
"Ahhh! Stay away! Help me! I twisted my ankle—ahhh, someone save me!"
"Damn it! The cars up ahead!"
"We're screwed! There are too many crashes—the road is completely blocked! Get out and run!"
"Mommy! Waaaahhh..."
Thick black smoke rose from every corner of the city, as if the world had plunged into a global war.
Fujimi Academy.
A small group of students infected by the Zombie Virus quickly turned into undead, attacking the living on instinct.
Screams echoed throughout the entire school.
"Ahhh—!"
The moment the Zombie Virus broke out, the sealed-off school became the most dangerous place, especially for students on the upper floors.
To escape downstairs, they had to face the dense horde of undead below.
In the short time since the virus outbreak, all remaining survivors had already realized—
A single bite from the undead meant infection.
Fear enveloped the entire world in an instant.
The smarter students had already given up trying to escape and instead fled to the rooftop, barricading the entrance with heavy objects.
A blonde-haired girl, dressed in a sailor uniform, had tears brimming in her terrified eyes.
"Waaaah! What do we do?! What should we do?! Why is this happening?! This is just like a zombie apocalypse!"
The pink twin-tailed girl in a sailor uniform hugged her arms tightly, trembling as she looked at the distant streets engulfed in smoke.
"Who—who knows what's going on?! We're trapped here! Everyone has turned into zombies!"
The dozen or so classmates who had escaped to the rooftop were also crying and shouting.
"Is this the end of the world?!"
"We were just in class a moment ago! How did this happen?!"
"This is just like—just like a horror movie!"

Just as everyone was breaking down, crying and screaming, a long-haired girl with sharp eyes, gripping a kendo club training bokken, spoke calmly.
"Everyone, calm down. Those infected locate people by sound. Your shouting will only attract more of them, and we will be completely trapped here."
