"For example, Morax, as the former strongest Martial God, Geo Archon, God of Wealth, Witness of Contracts, Ancestor of Adepti of Teyvat..."
"After thousands of years of accumulation, his foundation is extraordinary and his future is limitless. But after coming to the Star Crown Court, why can Morax, who should have soared to the heavens, only stay firmly in the first-class camp, without even the possibility of breaking into the top three or even the top five?"
"The reason is simple: he doesn't know how to use cheats!"
Hermes sighed as he explained the reason.
Not only was the recently returned Phanes disappointed, but even Hermes shook his head slightly.
With the many methods Morax wielded, as long as he was slightly more flexible, in the current environment of the Star Crown Court, there were simply too many things he could do and too many cards he could play.
But what did Morax do?
He did nothing!
In this turbulent era, doing nothing is the biggest mistake!
"For instance, Morax could have put some effort into his identity as the Martial God, integrating it with the Star Lord system to try and broaden the path of the Star Lords. After all, the threshold for the Star Lord system is still a bit high right now."
"Or as the Geo Archon, he could have specifically researched some rock creations to make them compatible with the Star Lord system."
At this point, Hermes began to shake his head and sigh: "Morax's subjective initiative is still too poor. Besides, with identities like the God of Wealth and God of Contracts, it would be far too easy to achieve something..."
"But Morax did nothing; he's just been resting on his laurels!"
This made Hermes shake his head. As expected of the old stone, he's just stubborn... To think he once thought Morax could become the first Star Master of the Star Crown Court.
On the contrary, the Hydro Archons Furina and Focalors actually managed to achieve some small results?
This retired Hydro Archon created a 'God-Self Dual Phase Cultivation Method,' which even Phanes nodded slightly at after seeing it.
Although he didn't say it on the surface, Hermes knew that Phanes was still very happy in her heart. Furina turned out to be the one among the Seven Archons of Teyvat who resembled her the most?
However, a small cheat isn't really cheating.
Furina 'cheated,' but her'salted fish' heart acted up. Every day, if she wasn't eating cake, she was wandering around places like the Gourmet Association... Failing to dig deeper, she can only be considered half-baked.
If the Raiden sisters were combined, given time, one could look forward to it.
The Pyro Archon Mavuika lacks foundation, but she is full of passion and her progress is not slow; she's just being held back by Natlan.
Barnabas has loyal subordinates to assist her, and Snezhnaya is even more united. Their performance is far better than the other six nations of Teyvat!
Although Barnabas is still inconspicuous at the moment, Hermes is actually more optimistic about this Tsaritsa of Snezhnaya.
"Morax... that is, Zhongli, is not only resting on his laurels himself, but even Liyue relies a bit too much on this Rex Lapis."
Speaking of this, Hermes shook his head.
Honestly, although Liyue is very similar to his hometown from his previous life and shares the same cultural roots, right now, Liyue is not only failing to help Morax but is even holding Zhongli back to some extent.
Compared to Snezhnaya, it really disappointed Hermes a bit.
If it weren't for Xiangling appearing and making people look twice... "...Is that how it is?"
Gardevoir understood, but she quickly thought of her little sister and hurriedly asked: "Then what about Nahida?"
"Nahida hasn't even grown up to adulthood yet!"
Hearing this, Hermes's hand paused slightly. He couldn't help but reach out and flick the young girl's forehead in annoyance, saying somewhat speechlessly: "You should worry about yourself first."
"Does Nahida even need you to worry about her?"
"She is a child who shares the same origin as Buyer. With such conditions, even if she just lies flat, she can be carried to success. Does she still need you to worry?"
"Little Gardevoir, watch carefully as I dismantle this Authority. I'll slow down; you should comprehend it well!"
"I know, I know, Master. I'll watch carefully."
Rubbing her forehead, the mature aura of a big sister on Gardevoir finally vanished completely. Her voice carried a hint of acting spoiled as she stared wide-eyed at her master's movements.
[One Nights Dream of Millet], this is a very unique Authority.
After Hermes traded for it from Lumine, even he was slightly impressed by it.
As long as one wields this Authority, they can cause local civilization and technology to develop at high speed.
Cities will prosper, the land will be fertile and abundant, industry and commerce will flourish, and even the unseen fortune will clearly improve, showing an upward trend.
This series of abilities, no matter where they are placed, can be called bug-level abilities.
If those Emperors of Immortal Dynasties knew about it, they would probably pay a huge price to trade for it.
Those Interstellar Civilizations would be green with envy, wanting to study its principles immediately and regarding it as a treasure or curiosity that could make a civilization leap forward.
Unfortunately, the original owner of this Authority had no interest in it and even extremely disliked technology, living in seclusion on Mount Lushan for years... Otherwise, with this Authority and her identity as a God Slayer, it would have been easy for Luo Hao to become a Chief God of Civilization, and even the myths spanning many parallel worlds of God Slayers would have opened a single page for Luo Hao.
Building her own Pantheon and becoming a God King would have been simple. What a pity... the effect of [One Nights Dream of Millet] is just that powerful!
Soon, after Hermes's refining and modification, the God Slayer characteristics of this Authority were washed away, and the logical rules within were rewritten, transforming it into a more pure and essential state.
Although Pandora's Dark Ritual is powerful, it is worlds apart compared to Hermes. One can tell just by looking at how those God Slayers in the original work had so many hidden restrictions when using Authorities.
"Alright, little Gardevoir, fuse with it and turn it into your own Authority."
Looking at the Authority blooming with incredibly pure radiance before him, Hermes showed a satisfied smile.
This thing is enough to become the foundation for the little one's path to enlightenment. He can finally feel a bit more at ease about Gardevoir's future cultivation path.
What's more... after Buyer and Ruan Mei's plans succeed, she will be able to seamlessly catch this tailwind... What does a small cheat count for?
If you're going to use cheats, you should use them to the fullest!
"Thank you, Master."
Gardevoir happily absorbed the Authority. Through her master's explanation, she already understood its mysteries.
Moreover, with an Authority, if she were placed back in her hometown, she should be considered among the [Legendary] ranks, right?
However... as Gardevoir's life form underwent a leap, Hermes's eyes narrowed slightly.
Seemingly disturbed by Gardevoir's life leap, a gaze from an infinitely distant other multiversal realm quietly watched Gardevoir as she underwent her transformation!
