Volume 1 The Glimmer of Light Chapter 40 Puzzle Solving (2)

Unconsciously, the two came to the back of the scientific research building, which is close to the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain, there is a huge door.

Old John led Gu Xiaoshi towards the gate, and said: "The demon race has not completely disappeared, a very small part, and the most powerful race, survived, when they recame to this world, they found that they had become history, no, not history, because what happened in the past can be called history, and their civilization has long been unknown to the world." The demons decided to re-dominate this world, but at that time it was already the world of human beings, although the demons were strong, after all, the number was too far and too far apart, and they could only integrate into this world, hidden, and secretly carry out everything. Judging from the appearance alone, there is no difference between demons and humans, and they are also divided into skin color, hair color, and even height and weight, which are no different from ordinary people, so people at that time did not find these uninvited guests, until later, the undercurrent surged, and the war between humans and demons was about to break out. ”

"Do you know about Atlantis?" asked Old John suddenly.

"I've seen it on the Internet, and it's not very clear what kind of civilization it is. Gu Xiaoshi replied honestly that Old John's story was very attractive, like a fantasy novel, and he couldn't help himself.

"Well," continued John Sr., "the earliest mention of this civilization was made by the Greek philosopher Plato, who wrote about it in his work Creteas, but whose authenticity was doubted. In fact, the Atlantean civilization existed, and there is information that they were once powerful, and we believe that they may be the descendants of demons and humans, that is, the ancestors of demon hunters, who established this civilization. This is the first battle between humans and demons in history, and the demons have been hit hard, but humanity has also paid a heavy price, and the kingdom of Atlantis was completely destroyed and disappeared into the Atlantic, which happened about 10,000 years ago. ”

"And in the far east, in your land, there was a similar war. Chiyou, you should know, right?"

"I know that the Yellow Emperor once defeated Chiyou in the Battle of Zhuolu, and there are also Chinese myths and stories, which are quite mysterious. Gu Xiaoshi said that he knew that as a descendant of Yan and Huang, this should be a household name.

Old John nodded and said, "That old guy has a demon skull in his office, you saw it, did he tell you what kind of demon it is?"

Gu Xiaoshi scratched his head, remembering that the principal had said it just now, but the name was strange, and said, "It seems to be called, Demon ...... What a snail!"

"Stupid, called Morogaros, one of the three major demon races, similar to the white race, distributed all over Europe and the United States, the other two major demon races, scattered in the Americas, Africa, etc., similar to the black Agulas demons, and from the East, self-proclaimed 'holy race' similar to the yellow race. In terms of strength, Morrogaros is undoubtedly the most powerful, the 'Holy Clan' in the East ranks second, and Agulas lasts, at least for now, but thousands of years ago, it was not necessarily. ”

"Why?" Gu Xiaoshi couldn't help but ask, these names are really strange, the most surprising thing is that there are also demons in the east, it's too terrifying, maybe it's somewhere in Shenzhou, hidden in the crowd, and it's not good to have walked past him......

"Because Chiyou is the Demon Clan, and he is the leader of the Eastern 'Holy Clan', the most powerful king in the history of the Demon Clan. ”

"I know this, the myths and stories call Chi You the Demon King, and the demon clan he led was defeated by the Yellow Emperor!" Gu Xiaoshi exhaled and raised his eyebrows, he was aggrieved for so long, and he could finally show his knowledge accumulation.

"You know a shit!" Gu Xiaoshi was immediately struck, Old John had a disdainful expression, and said: "This is the most clever place, sometimes, I have to admire the wisdom of the ancients, it is obviously the demon race, and I told everyone, and everyone believes that it appears in mythological stories, but in fact, it is real, real, one of the three major demon races, people are always confused by appearances, and only very few people can see the essence." ”

Gu Xiaoshi was stunned, this is also true? Everyone in Shenzhou knows that Chi You is the Demon King, leading the Jiuli army, fighting fiercely with the Yellow Emperor in Zhuolu, and finally defeated. But this demon clan is not the other demon clan, this trick to hide the sky and cross the sea, true and false, false and true, true and false, false and true, true and true, when it is true and clever, it completely blinds the world.

"The so-called 'Zhuolu Battle' is actually the real second battle between humans and demons, the Eastern Demon Clan was defeated, and the Demon King Chi You is nowhere to be found, as a result, the East tends to be calm, and only a small part of the Demon Clan is hidden everywhere, and there is no turbulent waves. However, the demon hunters in the East have since been depressed, forming a situation where the major inheritance families are in charge of their own affairs, although they have connections with the Western demon hunting world, but there is no in-depth communication. ”

"In fact, human beings have developed to this day, every conflict and war, there is a conspiracy of the demons behind it, from the ancient battle of Troy, to the battle for Jerusalem, from the iron cavalry of ancient Rome, to the Crusades, from World War I, to World War II, the demons have mastered the dark side of human nature, grasped the weakness of human beings, took advantage of human greed, and are always trying to find ways to create chaos in this world. ”

"That means that Nazi leader is also a demon?" Gu Xiaoshi asked.

"Hitler, you say? He's not, he's a madman, he's a madman, and behind him is the demons, and it's the demons who are tempting him to go crazy step by step. There was once a special person in the academy who monitored him and found the shadow of the demons, but the other party was too cunning and never caught it. ”

"During World War II, the academy was so powerful that it could spy on that Nazi leader?" Gu Xiaoshi wondered.

"Of course!" Old John showed a proud look, spying on the Nazi leader, it was not a big deal, and it was a pity that he failed to catch the demons behind him.

"Do you know why the academy is named after Augustus?" asked Old John.

Gu Xiaoshi shook his head and said, "Could it be that Octavian is also a demon hunter?"

"Yes," said Old John, "Octavian Augustus was indeed a witcher, he may not be the most powerful witcher, but he was the first to unite the major forces of the demon hunting world at that time. It was Octavian who used his influence to contact the famous European demon hunters, families, organizations and other forces to form the 'Council of Divine Radiance' to fight against the demons together, in honor of him, this council is also known as the 'Council of Augustus', which is also the origin of the academy. ”

Later, after several changes, the council decided to establish an academy dedicated to training demon hunters, and establish a research department responsible for finding more efficient and practical ways to fight demons through research and development, so there is today's Augustus Academy. The top 10 forces in the council, who are also the main members of the council, jointly funded the establishment of the academy. Originally, the institute was not located here, but on the border between Germany and France, near Belgium and across the sea from England. Later, when the Swiss Confederation was established, it was moved here for the sake of neutrality, and thanks to the senior, for less than £100, he bought the area, including where the academy was located, and the mountain, and the lake next to it, and donated it to the academy, perhaps unaware that this land would be so suitable for the academy. ”

The mountain in front of the two of them is not necessarily very high, but it is long in depth, encircling the academy in it, forming a natural barrier, and the lake is actually the private property of the academy.

The two of them had been standing in front of the gate at the bottom of the mountain for a while, and old John took out a card from his pocket, swiped it over a certain device, and immediately heard the familiar electronic synthesis female voice: "Identity verification...... Pass, please enter your password. After pressing a few numbers, the door opened, and Gu Xiaoshi followed Old John inside.

After entering the door, there was a small space, and there was another door in front of it, and two faint rays of light swept over the two of them, and the electronic synthesis voice sounded again: "Scan completed...... Permission to enter!" The door opened automatically, and Gu Xiaoshi glanced at it, and was immediately dumbfounded.

The scene inside the door was too shocking, a huge space, divided into various areas in a staggered manner, with a height of tens of meters, and countless headlights installed on it, emitting a blazing light, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.

"This is the real secret of Augustus Academy!" said Old John proudly, "Thanks to the predecessor who donated this land to the Academy, the geological environment here is really ideal, all high-density rock composition, solid and stable, with advanced building facilities, coupled with the continuous reinforcement and maintenance of the Academy for hundreds of years, finally formed the appearance of today, a most ideal indoor area, both safe and private, completely isolated from the world." The building area here is at least the size of two standard football fields, and even a magnitude 10 earthquake will not be affected in any way, and the independent ecosystem and food reserves are enough for 2,000 people to survive for at least a year. Let's go, I'll show you around. ”

Gu Xiaoshi followed Old John in, and Old John pointed to a long row of closed facilities on the left side of the door and said: "There is a shooting training place, there are many special shooting lanes for firearm shooting training, and it also includes simulation facilities for various environments, you should use it soon after the start of school." ”

Gu Xiaoshi was puzzled and asked, "Shooting? This is too, isn't it? Can students use guns? Isn't this a crime?"

Old John glanced at Gu Xiaoshi and explained: "Of course you have to shoot, do you think the demons are so easy to deal with? Not only guns, but also modified guns and special bullets must be used to hurt those bastards, and conventional weapons are too difficult to effectively combat them." ”
