84 - Ending the war

"When dealing with a thing, we usually don't talk about feelings, because it's cumbersome and irregular, and there's no way to take it into account."

"Under normal circumstances, we only think about the things themselves and the benefits and expenses attached to them."

Interests and dedication determine the key to the logic of action of most normal people.

Nahida's eyes blinked slightly, "Our chips, the Akademiya's chips, and what the Fatui have to pay to get the chips are the only three factors that change. ”

Rama smiled and said, "I'm so glad to hear about us from you, I'm so happy." ”

His smile was warm and encouraging.

"Let's continue to analyze and break down the logic of the Fatui."

It's so simple.

Of all the variables, the Fatui tend to be the simplest.

Because they are too pure, they don't talk to you about feelings, they don't reason with you, they only talk to you about interests.

Acting exactly according to their own plan, not trusting anyone else, not explaining why they did it, not caring about atrocities or whatever, as long as they think it is beneficial, they can go all the way to the end.

Arrogant and conceited, he carries all his hopes on himself.

This is the purest and the most analyzed.

Simple logic doesn't mean it's easy to deal with, which of course is another aspect.

"It's hard to guess, right?" Nahida tilted her head, "No matter how down-and-out the Akademiya is, it can come up with a lot of things. ”

"What is needed for human experimentation······ Materials, Mora, and even Sumeru's territory, these are the prices they can offer. ”

The emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and the Akademiya still had a lot of background, and of course he couldn't guess anything more concrete.

But if it has to be had by Rama, and the Fatui are very interested, the answer is quite obvious.

"Are they still the remains of the Red King and the Flower God?"

The little god thoughtfully said, "I always feel that the Fatui seem to be unexpectedly persistent." ”

A more accurate answer would be that I want them all.

The ruins of the Red King and the Flower God, and the Heart of the Gods in the hands of the Akademiya, these are the prey of the Fatui.

Rama smiled but said nothing.

The Heart of God is in the hands of the Akademiya, and the Akademiya has no gods, and in the cognition of the Fatui, it is basically directly equivalent to the Heart of God in the hands of the Fatui.

They have already obtained the most important things, and of course they have the heart and confidence to slowly seek other things.

When you have a guarantee, anything left is earned as long as you get it, and even if you don't get it, there is no loss, so of course their actions are bold and presumptuous.

This is the power of the big guarantee.

Rama sighed inwardly.

"I don't actually have the ruins of any of the gods, but I do know how to open their ruins."

"It's not something I can't afford to do, and if the Fatui are willing to spend money on this opportunity, I'll certainly share the benefits with them."

Rama's teachings are always so simple.

Nahida tilted her head to observe Rama's expression, one hand propped up her cheek.

"Working with the Fatui is what you want."

This is not an inquiry, the words are quite affirmative.

"People have money and channels, they want technology and technology, and it is really shameless to say that they are shameless, and they can really fight at the same time."

Rama described the merits of the Fatui one by one, and said earnestly, "Do you really want me to fight them to the end? But they didn't even threaten anything I valued. ”

Candace is a bait thrown out, and it's normal for someone to want to do something to Candace.

"Am I one of them?" Nahida asked suddenly.

The question is a bit stiff and a little vexatious.

"Of course you are."

Rama looked right, "But their goal has nothing to do with you, and it won't threaten you······ Not necessarily, I think badly. ”

His face suddenly turned cold.

According to the plot, the Fatui really have no intention of making a move on Nahida.

But according to the plot, he shouldn't exist.

"Preconceived." Rama pondered, "After all, he was deceived by the strength of the Fatui." ”

Rama was too hungry for the technology of the Fatui.

His ability can be improved by active exercise, but if he can get the existing technology tree for analysis, he can complete the leap growth of his own technology tree by digesting other people's technology trees.

He needed resources for that.

For a short time, Rama was able to find only the Akademiya.

The Akademiya happens to preserve Teyvat's normal tech tree, and by analyzing and collecting the information that the Akademiya has, Rama is confident that he will complete a leap of growth.

But it is no exaggeration to say that the Akademiya is not qualified to be compared to the Fatui at all.

It doesn't matter where the Fatui got their tech tree, but they do complete their crushing advantage over the current generation of technology.

When Rama realized this, his communication with the Fatui was naturally cooperative.

Even he himself was unaware that he preferred gentle communication to violence in his choice of the Fatui.

Because he wants something from someone else.

If you ask for something, you will inevitably be a little short of breath.

Of course, the most critical factor of a hero's shortness of breath is not to ask for something, but you want it, but you can't take it directly through violence and other means, you can only replace it through trading.

The dominance of the transaction is in the hands of the other party, who can agree or disagree.

When the decision is not in your hands, but the trading itself is important to you, this is the key to shortness of breath.

Rama didn't feel that the world was inherently obedient to his orders, and his attitude towards the tribal desert people was based on the fact that he really wanted nothing from them, only the basis of giving.

In the early days of capital accumulation, the desert people's crowding brought him irresistible benefits, and he accepted the benefits of this identity and identity, and gave back enough to the desert people.

It was a reasonable bargain for the subjects to flock to the king, and for the king to make their lives better.

But when the accumulation was complete, this identity lost its absolute value to Rama, and he no longer had any more needs for the desert people.

You don't need them to do anything, so it doesn't matter what they think and what they think.

And the Fatui are not.

Between the Fatui and Rama, it is Rama and not the Fatui who are weak.

Nahida was slightly puzzled.

It seems that it was fine just now, why is it that suddenly his face is so ugly?

"You reminded me." Rama looked serious, "It's better to underestimate the Fatui." ”

With the exception of Tartaglia's attack, the Fatui showed a moderate attitude inclined to cooperate.

This was clearly not the nature of the Fatui, and the other party seized Rama's mind and deliberately disguised himself as a moderate, so as to make a guarantee that they would have the opportunity to get what they wanted from Rama at any time.

Instead of everyone tearing the dough directly, you have to fight to the death.

This is Ying's treatment.

Although everyone fought with each other many times, none of them really killed the red eye, and someone must die.

Because Ying Zhuo is valuable, even if she has repeatedly stood up to stop the plan, the Fatui have never had absolute killing intent, but have let her go many times for various reasons.

She thwarted your plans, but the benefits of her being alive were far higher than if she were dead, so you have to bear with it.

"I can actually enjoy this kind of treatment."

Rama's expression was strange for a moment.

He couldn't quite understand whether it was the Fatui's habitual caution, or whether he had shown a special value in it that he could be valued by the Fatui.

But that's half a good thing.

It's a good thing to be looked at, and it's a bad thing to be looked down upon by the Fatui.

"You're worried they're going to do it to me?" Nahida realized the point of Rama's attention.

"It shouldn't be." Rama nodded, "But I can't predict the logic of the madman's actions. ”

Nahida had a bearing on the arrangement of the Great Tree of Mercy, and according to the importance of the World Tree, no matter who the real chess players were behind the Teyvat World, it was impossible for him to sit idly by and watch the World Tree go wrong.

In other words, Nahida, who seems to be weak, is actually the one with the hardest background.

He's not important enough, but He's about the polluted World Tree.

The World Tree is important, and so it is important.

Proceeding from this logic, Rama was never worried about Nahida's harm.

If someone really wants to attack Him, they will be killed by a nail from the sky immediately.

But the truth is still the same, and hope and opportunity cannot be given to others.

"Then we'll have to do it as soon as possible," Rama took a deep breath, "I'll have to get your ownership out of the hands of the Akademiya before I can have more plans." ”

Things have to fall into their own hands first, and then they have more sense of security in action.

It's as if the Fatui also "obtained" the heart of the god of grass first, and then they had more schemes, and this sense of security is also known as the power of the big guarantee.

This is the value of Nahida.

"So you want to end the war?" Nahida's eyes lit up.

He discovered that Rama had an inexplicable paranoia about war.

He actually had a lot of chances to end the reign of the Akademiya in one game, but he always gave the Akademiya more opportunities to play, so that the Akademiya could make things bigger and make the war longer rather than ending it altogether.

Nahida understands no.

He used the ideas that Rama taught to think about why Rama did what he did, and generally every second that a war lasts requires resources.

Both sides are throwing resources into it, and the direct loot is what the other side has left.

In other words, the sooner you win, the greater the loot.

Nahida knew that Rama didn't like these things, but it wasn't Rama's style to squander them wantonly, and he shouldn't waste unnecessary time in such a place.

But Rama was stalling for time and giving the war unnecessary overtime.

Nahida didn't understand, and Rama didn't explain, and of course he didn't ask too much.

The things that can be said can be said directly, and the things that are not said are not intended to be told to you, and Nahida still has this kind of understanding.

If the war drags on, maybe the Akademiya will be happy to see it, maybe Rama doesn't care, but for ordinary Sumeru, this unjustified disaster should obviously end as soon as possible.

Nahida will always stand in the shoes of ordinary people in Sumeru.

"Think about yourself." Rama glanced at Him, but did not mean to persuade.

This is a mistake that does not need to be corrected.

Because Rama didn't intend to give Nahida a chance to hurt herself because of the people.

The gods can be sacrificial, but if they do make Him sacrifice, it's not His problem, someone else is responsible.

Since it has been decided that you want to marry Victory, then of course you must use all the people who can use it.

For example, the Fatui, such as the [Group of Thirty].

As long as these two forces are won over, there is a high probability that the Akademiya will not even have time to surrender.

"The position of [the Group of Thirty] is worth believing, but there must be betrayers in it." Rama pondered, "The Akademiya knows that I trust the [Group of Thirty], what are they going to do with this trust?" ”

After thinking about it, the answer is actually quite obvious.

Beheading.

Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king.

The same is true in Teyvat.

The strength of the sand sea is an obvious advantage, the Akademiya has not prepared its force for a long time, and when the [Thirty People] has a problem, the disadvantage of the Akademiya can no longer be recovered.

It's not something that can be solved by one or two wins.

But just because one path doesn't work doesn't mean that the goal is unattainable.

The current Shahai regime is completely dependent on Rama alone, and once he has an accident, if he does not want the Shahai regime to collapse immediately, at least the struggle for power will inevitably give the Akademiya more opportunities.

"I trust [the Thirty Regiment], and they will use this news to carry out decapitation tactics."

The news will get out, and Asfad appears to be quietly negotiating, but Rama doesn't trust the collective judgment at all.

The answer given by the upper echelons of the entire [Group of Thirty] can't be unaware of the Akademiya's knowledge, so how stupid it must be to be able to do such a thing.

So, what can I do with this news?

Rama, of course, could accept such a thing as risking his life, but what about the reward?

If you risk your life, you must always get what you don't usually get, otherwise you will lose.

But the expected benefits on the side of the Akademiya don't seem to be worth the risk.

Rama fell into deep thought.

This move can be used or not, this is his freedom of choice.

Obviously, the risks outweigh the benefits, so it is better to discard them.

Then it doesn't have any connection with the [Group of Thirty], and you have to take a risk if you use this move, since the benefits are not satisfactory, it is better not to use it directly.
