Chapter Seventy-Seven: Truth and the Future

The Eagle Tribe, said to be the oldest tribe of Seymours in the entire Haraite Heath.

And Martha the Elder, who is said to be the longest-living Seymour now, once experienced the Great Migration, migrated and wandered in the midst of disaster, crossed the entire Haraite Heath, and led her people to find the Holy Mountain, choosing this completely strange land.

Even, she was the de facto leader of the Seymour people for a considerable period of time, and that "quite long" record is probably at least fifty years or more.

If you calculate it a little, this one is probably two or three hundred years old.

"But no matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary old lady. ”

The purple robes, the short, curved back, and the thin arms made one worry about whether they would be blown away by the wind, but it was this man who had led a race for decades.

At that time, when she came here to negotiate with Rorschach in person, Rorschach and the others didn't react much, thinking that it was just an elder of the Holy Mountain, but now that all the information and intelligence are complete, they know that this is a big guy.

However, he is also a retired boss.

About 50 years ago, she resigned from her position and lived in seclusion.

Most of the time, she takes care of her children and engages in education, and even many young people in Shengshan don't know her, but think she is a kind-hearted orphanage director.

Naturally, to befriend the tribes of the Holy Mountain, this is a key figure.

What is pleasing to people is that she is very easy to deal with, and even has signs of taking the initiative to show favor to the Ashites, which is rare among the nobles and chiefs of the Seymour people, and most of the Seymour high-level officials are hostile or even wary of outsiders.

Children can cheer for uninvited guests, but adults have to underestimate the intentions of the villains in private, and the guards have to scrutinize every stranger with a wary eye.

For some reason, Rorschach's game church has had several contacts with her, and the relationship is very good, and in order to win over the Eagle Tribe, Rorschach has also met with her privately several times, which can be regarded as having a certain relationship.

For the elderly, especially the old man whose knowledge accumulation is bottomless, Rorschach has a certain respect.

Now that he received a letter asking for a meeting or even a face-to-face interview, Rorschach certainly would not refuse, so he arranged a meeting at his coffee shop.

However, there is a lot of muttering in my heart.

"The matter of the city lord of Jiaocheng, how can the elders of your holy mountain know about it, could it be ....... one?"

Thinking of the "friendship" of the old man and the old lady after a long time, Rorschach inexplicably made up his mind with feelings such as "the original lover who is on both sides of the enemy" and "spy in the spy", as well as "Is this to help the old lover save his reputation? or to accuse the mastermind behind the scenes?"

But as soon as the old lady spoke, Rorschach knew that she wanted to be crooked.

"Little Sias's child was raised by the old lady, and he was the smartest of those orphans, I really didn't expect that it would end like this in the end.,......."

Well, it is estimated that more than a hundred old men are also a child in front of her.

The old lady spoke fluent Ash's lingua franca, as well as Saul's local accent, which was more pronounced than Rorschach's own, but the next words made Rorschach suspect that he had misheard.

....... really didn't expect that he would choose to commit suicide. ”

Although there are many doubts, although there are many speculations, and such a development is also in the plan, not many people will take it seriously.

The mastermind behind the scenes is actually the victim? He also took the opportunity of his own racial revival and unity.

"Why?"

Rorschach had many doubts, but the first one was ......

"Why are you telling us this? Suicide is the least honorable death in your tradition. ”

"....... but sacrificing for his own people and family is the highest honor, in a sense, the little one, although he died for his own people and son, but also for your share, if you are not too busy, talk to the old lady about old things........"

Martha's words paused, and eventually, a word was squeezed out between her teeth.

"....... those beings, those ....... evil gods, are our common enemies, in the eyes of these young people, you are probably no different from the evil gods, but only we old fellows know what the evil gods mean. ”

The past, which has been recalled countless times, has become a childhood story in the mouth of the old lady, and although it is deliberately understated, Rorschach still tastes the huge amount of despair and hatred in it.

During the Great Migration, the Seymours fled their ancient homeland and moved through a wasteland full of disasters, often accompanied by death, and even if they were lucky enough to find the Holy Mountain, none of them remained.

And the reason for the migration, just to get rid of the dark gods who fell from the sky, in the long migration, little Martha became Chief Martha, and then became Elder Martha, in the process, she, like countless of her people, lost their homes, relatives, lovers, children.

The simplest words are tingling with hatred. If hatred can be turned into a tangible object, I am afraid that there is no other existence in this hut.

But Rorschach can see that this is not the point she wants to talk about, qualified politicians only care about the future.

The next words were the original words of old Sias.

"Since you (the Eichites) came here, there has been no possibility or need for unity among the Seymours, and all doom has been doomed since the day Sideon's fool summoned the evil god. ”

If it was a speech full of hatred, Rorschach didn't want to hear it at all, and there was no need to continue talking, but in the old lady's words, it was a shocking reality.

"The evil god that was finally got rid of back then used the evil watcher's eye as an emblem, that's right, it is the evil god church in Jiaocheng now, the Eye of Wisdom!"
