Chapter 238 Different Concepts, Different Regions
As the crowd cheered, a miracle happened.
The air began to flow, and the cherry blossom petals on the sacred tree began to glow faintly. In a blink of an eye, the entire shrine was surrounded by a rain of cherry blossoms.
At this time, the people had opened their eyes. They looked at the magical scene before them and couldn't help but shouting.
"Wow, look, it's God's power that works! You are worthy of being the Son of God!"
So for a while, there were endless exclamations. Even Qin Ge was shocked by the scene in front of him. Although he had seen many surprises, this was the first time he had seen such a gorgeous scene.
"Nagato! Nagato! Nagato!"
The people's loud cheers were endless, and the cherry blossoms in the sky turned into tiny halos, spreading out to the sky with the shrine as the center.
Qin Ge looked up and saw the small halo, which was like a meteor, flying away from the sacred tree and landing in every corner of the Sakura Islands.
"It's so beautiful, Commander." Guanghui, who was following Qin Ge, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.
"Yes, it's really beautiful." Qin Ge exclaimed.
A moment later, the girl standing on the prayer platform slowly turned around and said in a majestic tone, "I am Nagato, the guardian of the Sakura Empire and the flagship of the Combined Fleet - Nagato. As long as Zhu Jun offers his faith, the Sakura Empire will prosper forever..."
"Prosperity forever! Prosperity forever..."
Following the girl's voice, the crowd in the audience shouted in ecstasy. Amid the cheers, the girl slowly walked towards the shrine, and after a moment, her figure disappeared at the entrance of the shrine.
But even if the girl disappeared, everyone present was still shouting in ecstasy, and this atmosphere seemed to continue forever.
At this time, Mikasa looked at Qin Ge with a smile and said, "The festival is over, let's go."
Qin Ge nodded and left with the ship girls. Even though they had walked far away, they could still hear the shouting voice.
"How is it?" Mikasa asked Qin Ge with a smile.
Qin Ge nodded. "It's magical and grand, and very characteristic of the Sakura Empire."
"Haha." Mikasa smiled, "Due to time constraints, I haven't seen such a grand occasion for a long time."
"Where does Senior Mikasa go every time he comes back?" Qin Ge asked.
"It's almost time to stay on the main island of Sakura for a while, chat with familiar people, and then visit other islands." Mikasa said with a smile.
Qin Ge nodded, "I'm really sorry to bother you again this time."
Mikasa shook her head, "It's nothing, this is what I should do."
"But coming to the point, just now I saw all those cherry blossom petals turned into halos and flew to various places in the Sakura Islands. Is it really as Nagato said, that it is everyone's belief in God?" Qin Ge asked curiously, and the others also looked at Mikasa.
"Yes and no." Mikasa said.
"Why?" Qin Ge asked puzzledly.
"Those fragments are indeed faith, but not faith in the eight million gods of Sakura Empire, but faith in a better life.
The so-called eight million gods were just a trigger. The real power was the prayers of the people, which made the sacred tree react.
After that, Nagato communicated with the power of the sacred tree and released everyone's prayers to every corner of the Sakura Islands. With the help of these prayers, the Sakura Islands will have good weather and a good harvest next year, just as Nagato said. "Mikasa said.
"I see." Qin Ge nodded.
"It sounds a little unreal," said Bismarck, who was following behind the crowd.
"Why?" Qin Ge turned and looked at Bismarck and asked.
"People everywhere wish for good weather and a good harvest. But prayers cannot change the weather, as anyone who has studied meteorology knows.
I think that if we want to achieve a good harvest, the most important thing is to take action and use technology to change the environment in which we live, rather than praying to gods who may or may not exist. " Bismarck said.
Qin Ge nodded and smiled, "You are right, but we cannot think that the people of Sakura Empire are wrong. After all, each camp has its own pursuits and each camp has its own system.
Just like you told me before, Iron Blood wrote its own history with iron and blood. And most of the history of Sakura Empire is related to gods, so it cannot be generalized. "
Mikasa nodded and said, "What Qin Ge said is true. A wish like this can be realized in Sakura Empire, but not in other places.
Just as the people of Donghuang work hard, the people of Tiexue use technology. "
Everyone nodded, and Qin Ge looked towards Tiancheng who was holding a red umbrella and looking at the street scenery, "Tiancheng, what do you think ?"
"Due to the terrain here in Sakura Empire, it is impossible for it to survive like Donghuang and Iron Blood. And Lord Nagato obviously already has the ability to call for prayers, which is actually the best choice for Sakura Empire... cough." Amagi said with a smile.
"Indeed." Qin Ge nodded.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. We're almost at my home here. Everyone has been on the boat for so long, you can take a good rest." Mikasa smiled at everyone.
"But compared to the place they prepared, my place might be a little small, so everyone has to squeeze in a little bit."
Qin Ge shook his head. "That doesn't matter. We came here to bother Senior Mikasa."
"I've told you so many times that you're welcome. If you do this again, I'll be angry." Mikasa said with a smile.
Qin Ge smiled and said, "Okay then."
Walking along a street that was very Sakura-style, everyone turned a corner and headed towards Mikasa's house.
Suddenly I found that there were already two people standing in front of the house that Mikasa mentioned.
One of them had brown hair and a brown tail like Amagi, and wore a red and black kimono, while the other had white hair and a white tail, and wore a blue and white kimono.
Everyone saw them at the first moment, and they saw everyone at the same time.
"Akagi, Kaga?" Mikasa looked at the two figures in the distance, and couldn't help but look back at Qin Ge beside her and Tiancheng behind her, "It seems that the people who should come have arrived."
Tiancheng looked at the two people in front of him with a smile on his face, while Qin Ge had a solemn expression on his face.
Although this matter in Sakura Empire was unavoidable, he still hoped that it would come later, but he did not expect it to come so soon.
And at this moment, the two people walked over here quickly, and their target was obviously the figure holding the red umbrella among the crowd.
