"Takagi, you must know something, right?"
Himeko asked with a smile.
Hearing this, March 7th, Lisa, and the others all curiously turned their gaze to Takagi.
Takagi shrugged, looked at the sky, and said to Herta:
"Herta, don't you know the owner of that eye?"
[Herta: I don't know. All I can perceive here is that it's the eye of a certain Aeon.]
[Herta: It's because its sudden gaze in your direction almost caused the Simulated Universe to crash again.]
[Herta: Seriously, I had already reduced the probability of the Aeon of Propagation's potential aggressive behavior towards you, but then another new Aeon appeared.]
[Herta: Thankfully, Ruan Mei and Screwllum were here this time, and they barely managed to prevent the Simulated Universe's system from crashing.]
[Screwllum: It is an honor to be of assistance to Miss Herta.]
[Ruan Mei: Takagi, do you have any impression of that eye?]
A mysterious voice emanated from the giant eye, uttering the words "Trailblaze."
And Takagi seemed to know many things.
Coupled with Takagi's special identity.
Therefore, many people in the field, including Ruan Mei, believed that Takagi knew the owner of that eye.
"Well, if I'm not mistaken."
"I think that should be the eye of the Aeon of Order."
Takagi shrugged and said.
[Ningguang: Aeon of Order!!!]
[Keqing: Is that the Aeon who was later absorbed by another Aeon?]
[Yelan: I didn't expect it to target the Aeon of Propagation so quickly.]
[Zhongli: As the Aeon of Order, it probably sensed the disorder of the Aeon of Propagation, which is why it turned its gaze towards the Aeon of Propagation.]
[Venti: I wonder if this Aeon of Order and the Aeon of Propagation will fight first.]
[Charlotte: I'm more curious if the Aeon of Order would have sought out Takagi to say something if the previous scene hadn't been interrupted. That way, we might have understood Takagi better.]
[Jean: There should be many more opportunities like this in the future, right?]
[Rosaria: For now, let's try to understand the Aeon of Propagation Tayzzyronth as much as possible, after all, we now have a troublesome person here who has embarked on the Path of Propagation.]
[Faruzan: What's more troublesome is that this person is also a scholar who wields forbidden technology.]
[Keqing: It seems we need to pay more attention to the Fatui's affairs from now on. I wonder if the Fatui and Snezhnaya have any plans to keep a close watch on the Doctor.]
[Ningguang: That's probably difficult, after all, that Doctor is the Second Seat of the Fatui Harbingers. Even in Snezhnaya, not many people can control him.]
...[Ruan Mei: The Aeon of Order, huh? No wonder there was a chorus of voices when its words were heard earlier.]
[Herta: Interesting. The birth of the Aeon of Propagation actually attracted the attention of the Aeon of Order. This is a point worth noting.]
[Herta: However, the entire process of the Aeon of Propagation's birth is indeed the most important thing to record right now!]
[Herta: Just as it was written in the manuscript of that unlucky genius killed by Polka Kakamond.]
[Herta: The Aeon of Propagation did indeed ascend to godhood in loneliness and amidst the smoke of war.]
[Herta: The ravings of that army leader and the ravings of the mercenary leader pushed that last beetle to godhood.]
Herta's excited voice echoed in the data stream space, also bringing Lisa, March 7th, and the others, who were still surprised by the news of the Aeon of Order, back to their senses.
Everyone thought of the previous images related to the Aeon of Propagation, and their hearts were filled with emotion.
"It is indeed moving."
"I never thought that we, with our narrow perspectives, would be able to witness the birth of an Aeon and the reasons for its birth from beginning to end."
Cloud Retainer exclaimed.
Even as an Adeptus of Liyue, Cloud Retainer had long known how narrow the perspectives of Teyvat people were.
Teyvat's perspective was even narrower than Jarilo-VI, which had been affected by the Stellaron for hundreds of years.
And yet, they were able to witness the birth of an Aeon with their own eyes. How could Cloud Retainer not be surprised by this?
"This is all thanks to Takagi."
"If it weren't for Takagi, we wouldn't have been able to see that astonishing scene at all."
Lisa looked at Takagi and said.
"No one would have thought that before the powerful Aeon of Propagation was born, it was such a weak beetle."
Nahida shook her head and said.
"However, there are still some unclear points."
"I always feel that there's a big hand behind the Aeon of Propagation's ascension to godhood, pushing everything forward."
Cloud Retainer said with a deep frown.
"To be able to learn this much is already quite a luxury, isn't it?"
"This is much better than just seeing the Aeon of Propagation last time."
"Compared to some mastermind, I'm more curious about what that last beetle was thinking when it became a god?"
"How did a vast power suddenly surround it, pushing it to become a god?"
Signora frowned, her beautiful face filled with confusion.
[Ruan Mei: I imagine that after sensing that it was the only beetle left alive, that extreme propagation instinct, incomprehensible to us, allowed it to touch Imaginary Energy and then open up a Path.]
[Herta: What an extremely pure will of propagation. Ascending to godhood with such a will, no wonder Tayzzyronth caused all those future events.]
"Can a pure will make a creature capable of ascending to godhood?"
"This is truly... interesting."
The Doctor muttered to himself, looking at his hands.
[Dehya: I always feel like this Doctor is thinking something.]
[Rosaria: He probably saw that even a mere insect could ascend to godhood, so he thinks he can too.]
[Navia: No way, how could that be so easy to succeed?]
[Xingqiu: It's no wonder, after all, Tayzzyronth was just a weak insect before becoming a god.]
[Kaveh: After all, the insects we encounter in our daily lives are creatures that can be easily swatted away. To be honest, even now, thinking about that beetle ascending to godhood, I am still very surprised.]
[Dori: Who would have thought that an insect with little thought would burst forth with such a will?]
[Alhaitham: Perhaps, precisely because it was an insect, the will of propagation it unleashed was even purer. As beings with complex thoughts, it would be difficult for us to possess such a powerful will of propagation as theirs.]
[Tartaglia: If you put it that way, the Doctor has no chance of wielding the Path of Propagation.]
[Rosaria: Unless that guy completely turns himself into an insect.]
[Columbina: If possible, I hope not to become a colleague with an insect.]
[Ningguang: Unfortunately, your Doctor is already very close to being an insect.]
[Columbina:...]
..."Indeed interesting, but what's interesting is your thought."
Takagi glanced at the Doctor, suppressing a smile.
Then, he looked up at the sky and asked:
"Herta, the surrounding data is a bit unstable. Can the Simulated Universe continue?"
[Herta: Of course it can continue. Just a moment, it'll be ready soon.]
[Herta: The moment the Aeon of Propagation was born, its data showed strong fluctuations, and the appearance of the Aeon of Order had an even greater impact on the data.]
[Herta: But it's okay, the data has stabilized, we don't need to re-simulate.]
[Herta: Alright, let's start the next scene.]
As if worried that Takagi would stop the test, Herta, Ruan Mei, and Screwllum quickly stabilized the Simulated Universe.
In the blink of an eye, everyone found themselves in a hospital.
Busy doctors and nurses were walking and communicating quickly in the corridors.
Every face was filled with negative emotions such as fear, surprise, and sadness.
Just as everyone was wondering, a young nurse suddenly fell to the ground as she passed Takagi and the others.
Seeing this, Takagi timely extended his right hand to help her up.
[Herta: There she is, a character who is likely key. Takagi, quickly, get close to her and ask about the situation here.]
"Are you alright, Miss Nurse?"
Takagi asked.
"S-Sorry, I'm a bit tired."
"I've been working for a whole day straight."
The weary young nurse sighed deeply and said.
Takagi: "Shall I help you rest for a bit?"
Nurse: "This... alright, I really do need to rest for a while."
Takagi nodded and followed the path the nurse indicated, leading her to the lounge.
"Speaking of which, are you a family member of a pregnant woman?"
"Or is one of you pregnant?"
After drinking a sip of water, the nurse's gaze swept over the women present, such as Himeko, Signora, and Lisa.
When she said the word "pregnant," there was no Blessing in her eyes, only sadness and worry.
"No."
Lisa shook her head and said.
"That's great, it's good that none of you are pregnant."
"During this time, you must not get pregnant."
After letting out a sigh of relief, the nurse then warned Lisa, Signora, and the others with a serious expression.
Signora didn't feel shy because of the nurse's words. Instead, she asked the nurse with a puzzled look:
"You seem very reluctant to see pregnant women?"
"Why is that?"
Nurse: "Don't you know what happened here on Mandalay Island?"
Takagi: "We are outsiders, we just arrived here. If possible, could you tell us about the situation here?"
Hearing this, the nurse looked at Takagi and the others in surprise and said:
"Are you travelers? To land at this time, it's really bad timing."
"Sigh, you don't know, this Mandalay Island is in big trouble."
"Not long ago, a giant creature with the upper body of a human and the lower body of an insect flew over this island."
"At first, everyone didn't think it mattered."
"But after that, everyone quickly realized something was wrong."
"Can you imagine, everything related to propagation has undergone tremendous changes."
"Men and women are frantically creating new lives."
"Some of these men and women don't even know each other."
"Some are even enemies, but they still mated and became pregnant."
"Not only that, these pregnant women reached their due date in a very short time!"
"Because of this, our hospital has admitted a large number of pregnant women."
"Our work has also increased accordingly."
"Then..."
Speaking of this, the nurse's body suddenly trembled.
As if she had thought of something terrifying.
"Upper body human, lower body insect?"
"Is that Tayzzyronth?!"
Cloud Retainer murmured.
"Not just insects, can He also make humans exchange pheromones for reproduction like insects?"
"This is really not good news."
Lisa said.
"Yes, this news is quite unpleasant."
Signora frowned her beautiful brows and looked deeply at Dottore.
Thinking of how even enemies mentioned by the nurse could exchange genetic pheromones due to the influence of the Aeon of Propagation, Signora felt a wave of nausea.
Not only Signora and Lisa, but even the people of Teyvat who saw everything on the screen felt strong ripples in their hearts.
Everyone's mood couldn't calm down for a long time.
[Albedo: The power of the Aeon of Propagation can indeed affect humans.]
[Dehya: Damn it, I still don't want to believe it. Why can the Aeon of Propagation make humans selflessly exchange pheromones or whatever? We're not insects!]
[Candace: Actually, it's understandable if you think about it. After all, the power of the Aeon is immense.
Even if Tayzzyronth was originally a relatively ordinary insect, after ascending to godhood, His power is not something mortals can resist.]
[Candace: Naturally, mortals cannot resist His power over propagation.]
[Dehya: You're too calm, Candace!]
[Candace: After all, this matter is already in front of us, and there's nothing we can do even if we don't believe it.
I even think the nurse's unfinished sentence is about the pregnant women giving birth to insects.]
[Dehya: Don't... don't say it, I'm going to throw up.]
[Lumine: I've already thrown up and am ready to keep throwing up.]
[Paimon: I'm ready too. By the way, Takagi shouldn't take us to see pregnant women giving birth to... giving birth to offspring, right?]
[Rosaria: If possible, I also don't want to see these scenes, I feel like I'll have nightmares.]
[Navia: I think I can have nightmares just by imagining it.]
.........
"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it, it's fine."
Takagi patted the nurse's shoulder and comforted her.
"Thank you."
The nurse looked at Takagi with complex eyes.
Just then, a scream suddenly came from somewhere.
Along with it, there was the constant sound of breaking glass.
"What happened?"
Signora looked in the direction of the sound in surprise.
As soon as she finished speaking, the nurse had already rushed out of the lounge.
Seeing this, everyone quickly followed.
When everyone turned the corner and arrived at the location of the nursery.
They saw a large number of insects constantly flying out of the nursery.
They smashed the glass and flew straight towards the sky.
Not only that, insects were also constantly flying out of various rooms in the hospital, rushing towards the sky.
Everyone looked around and even saw insects flying out from the direction of the delivery rooms, accompanied by the screams of human women.
The few people present were not ordinary people. With just one glance, everyone realized what had happened in those delivery rooms.
For a moment, the faces of Signora, Lisa, Himeko, and the others turned a little pale.
[Lumine: Uh, sorry, I really can't help it, I'm throwing up!]
[Alice: Not using humans as nourishment, but directly having humans give birth to insects, this is really... disgusting.]
Rosaria: Compared to all this, I suddenly feel like the Doctor's clones turning into bugs isn't a big deal anymore.
Venti: Tayzzyronth, it's a good thing it has already fallen. I wouldn't want such a dangerous Aeon to descend upon Teyvat.
Neuvillette: If such an Aeon were to descend upon Teyvat, the impact on Teyvat would be even greater than the Aeon of Destruction descending upon Teyvat.
Lyney: Indeed, compared to direct destruction, the Path of Propagation's actions are even more capable of destroying a world's will.
Furina: The Fatui's Doctor, he wouldn't really want to wield the Path of Propagation, would he?!
Tartaglia: Even as a fellow Fatui Harbinger, this time I have to say, I hope the Doctor doesn't continue to delve into the Path Power of Propagation.
Arlecchino: Hmm, too deep a contact with the power of propagation could indeed cause significant problems. But then again, do these flying insects leaving the hospital mean the end of the matter? Can the people here still return to normal?
Charlotte: They should be able to.
Arlecchino: Hard to say! And I'm very curious, is the scene displayed in the hospital truly the limit of the Aeon of Propagation's authority?
