Chapter 60: The Society of Truth

After the Leitin-Saktin Academy of Magic went under martial law, Irma went to the head of operations to find out the situation. After learning that outsiders were not allowed to leave the academy during martial law, www.biquge.info wanted the person in charge of operations to be a little accommodating and let the brothers and sisters of the Heyan family and Rui Ting leave the academy.

The head of the operation was tempted to sell Ima's face, but Moriddin gave a death order to prevent anyone from entering or leaving the Academy, not even the Cornate family. He didn't dare to disobey Moritdin's order in front of so many people, and could only say that he would send someone to report the matter to Moritdin, and only release him after receiving the order.

It was about an hour later that the messenger hurried back with Moritdin's orders. Moritin did not agree to the request for release, and wrote a letter to Ima stating that after the mass movement of troops, there had been small riots in the 9th and 5th districts of the city, which meant that the city was not safe. Moritin meant to let these people stay in the Academy of Magic for a while, where it was relatively safer.

Ima returned to Maier's dormitory with the letter and told everyone what she could. After hearing the contents of the letter, everyone showed expressions of disbelief.

Meanwhile, the first dormitory of the Academy of Magic, dormitory building 126, room 201.

Room 201 of Residence Hall 126 is a sacred place for the Truth Society, as it is Gray's former dormitory and where the first members of the Truth Society found the letter hidden in the cracks in the walls. Since the establishment of the Truth Society, the dormitory has been vacant, and the residents of Residence Hall 126 can only be members of the Truth Society. On weekdays, the people of the Truth Society do not meet here, but only in special circumstances or emergencies will they hold special meetings here.

Sitting in the living room were 30 students, 12 tutors, and Amileno, the director of the Overseer of the Leitin-Saktin Academy of Magic and Magic? Kides. Amileno is the current president of the Society of Truth and one of its founders. The other forty-two are core members of the Truth Society, with the rank of "Councillor".

Among the 30 students, the youngest is 32 years old. They remain students to facilitate activities, and all of them are deliberately repeating grades. The 12 mentors were the same people who founded the Truth Society with Amireno, and were the first members of the Truth Society.

According to the structure of the Truth Society, each member has 3 to 6 sub-groups, and the sub-committee has a group leader who has a one-line contact with the members. Each group has a staff of 6 to 10 people, who are called members, and the members are also in direct contact with the group leader. There will be 2-5 assessees under the member, and the assessee and the member are also a one-line contact.

The president has an "action brigade" under his command, and the leader of the team is currently Amilino. There are 8 groups under the action brigade, each group is composed of about 20 people, all of whom are members, and there are 2-5 assessees below the members, and the assessees and members are also single-line contacts.

Of course, this is a theoretical situation, but in practice all the teams are in a state of serious overstaffing. According to the theoretical establishment, the total number of people in the Truth Society is now between 6,000 and 7,000, but the actual number is more than 50,000.

Daisy is a member of the Truth Society, and the freckled boy and the mole boy, as well as the ordinary male killer, are all the ones under her who are evaluated. The freckled teenager and the mole teenager were the ones she developed on her own, and the ordinary male killer was transferred from the other members by the group leader. In addition to these three people, Daisy has five other people under her command, who are her roommates, and her four maids.

Most of the members of the Truth Society are in the small towns and villages around Saktin, and there are only a few hundred members in the Leting-Saktin School of Magic, and more than half of them are the ones who are being assessed. Amilenor used his power in the Overseer to give members of the Truth Society free access to the Academy, and to manage organizations outside the Academy remotely.

Now that the Leiding-Sackin Academy of Magic is locked down, the Truth Society is unable to spread the word to outside organizations. The loss of contact between the outside organization and the headquarters, as well as the massive military movement of Sakin City, and the march of the army towards the Letin-Saktin School of Magic and Wizardry, led some of the group leaders to misjudge that the Brett Wizards' Guild had discovered the headquarters of the Truth Society. They organized their members and the assessees without authorization, distributed weapons to them, and started a riot in the city.

Of course, these small fish and shrimp were crushed into pieces by the army after only a few jumps. More than 500 people were killed and more than 1,000 injured in the two riots. Most of the dead and wounded were members of the Truth Society, and a small number were civilians, and the military casualties were less than 200.

To the surprise of the military, none of the people who participated in the riots voluntarily surrendered, the wounded refused to be treated by the military, and some attacked the military doctors. The angry soldiers killed some of the captives, but instead of being honest, the remaining captives had to fight with the military. Some of the lightly wounded tried to seize weapons from the soldiers, but only a very small number succeeded.

In the end, the military only managed to take 36 prisoners, all of whom were seriously wounded, and after the military doctor had given them the necessary treatment, the Cornate family took them away. The Cornate interrogated the captives overnight, and only three of the examinees confessed, but they knew too little, and their superiors were dead, so it made no difference to the Cornate family whether they confessed or not.

External organizations are in disarray, and the situation at headquarters is not much better. Amilenor was anxious, desperate to know what was going on outside, and even more so why the Cornate family had locked down the Letin-Sackin Academy of Magic.

“…… I asked the military commander of the army, and he said that the army was only on orders, and it was not clear what they were doing here. With my ability, I can only reach people of this level at most, and I can't get more information. ”

After Amileno's remarks, the parliamentarians fell silent. They can't do anything without figuring out their opponent's intentions. If the Cornate family had not discovered the headquarters of the Truth Society, their actions would have exposed the location of the headquarters and would have been surrounded by the army.

In fact, Moritin really didn't know where the headquarters of the Truth Society were. The Truth Society's activities were mainly in the city of Sakkin, so Moritin always thought that the headquarters of the Society of Truth was somewhere within the city. He sent troops to the Leting-Saktin Academy to impose martial law in order to prevent the truth from attacking the students of the Academy.

Wait—All the truth can do now is wait, and it's in a very passive position. While waiting, the core members of the Society of Truth are under great pressure, but most of them cannot bear such pressure.

Ten minutes later, a tall, thin, student-looking man clenched his fists and stood up and spoke.

"President! Let's revolt! ”

An uprising is a rebellion. The ultimate goal of the Society of Truth is to overthrow the Atheist Society of Bright Magicians under the control of the Cornate family, and to establish a new regime that believes in the God of Light, where everyone is equal and dominated by the upright.

The core members of the Truth Society are confident that the civilians who have been oppressed by the Wizards of Leiding will support them, because the truth will bring justice to them and crush the mountains that weigh on them. Most of the members of the Truth Society are civilians, so Amilenor and the councillors have been working on the methods of civilians against the Ryding Magicians, and the example of Gray leading the 30,000 Tairong coalition army to defeat the 150,000 Leyting coalition army is the best object for them to study.

Ryding mages are not invincible, as long as the flesh is harmed, they will be injured and will be killed. According to rumors, Gray gathered all the soldiers before going into battle, took off his shirt in front of them, and chose one of them at random, gave him a dagger, and asked him to stab the dagger into his left arm. The man didn't dare, so Gray directly constructed a magic arrow and said to him, "If you don't plunge the dagger into my left arm, I'll blow your head to pieces."

The man was forced to plunge the dagger into Gray's left arm. Gray immediately went to the top after being wounded, showed everyone his wounds, and shouted to them that the Ryding Wizard was also a human being, and that if he was killed, he would die, and there was nothing to fear. After this, the fear of the Tajon coalition for the Ryding mage was greatly reduced, and the morale was greatly boosted.

Later, Gray explained the political system of the Letting people to the soldiers, letting them know that as long as they are ruled by the Ryting Magician Association, they will be exploited and oppressed by the Lighting magicians. These people will also be exploited and oppressed under the rule of the Tayyong nobles, but compared to the policy of the Leting Wizards Guild towards foreign races, the Tayyong nobles' policy towards the commoners is simply not too lenient.

In order to defend their rights, the 30,000 Tairong coalition troops hated the same enemy and regarded death as home. And because the 150,000 Leiding coalition army had just won the battle, and the opponent's strength was only one-third of its own, it had developed the psychology of being proud and underestimating the enemy, and it had already lost the battle in terms of mentality.

Gray chose the battlefield near a city without walls, he evacuated all the citizens in advance, and after the battle, he feigned defeat and retreated like the city. Taking advantage of the victory, the Leyting coalition pursued and surrounded the city, intending to annihilate Gray's forces. In the street battle, the Leiding coalition army could not play the advantage of strength, and the chance of the Leiding mage being assassinated during the street battle also increased a lot, and the Leiding coalition army suffered heavy losses in the siege battle. Gray saw the opportunity of the low morale of the Leiding coalition army, and personally led an elite army to attack the camp of the Leiding coalition army, causing the Leiding coalition army to be in chaos.

The Tairong coalition army in the city took the opportunity to kill and defeat the enemy. In this battle, more than 10,000 Taeyong allied forces were killed, and almost everyone was wounded after the battle, but not one of them flinched. More than 50,000 of the Leiding coalition forces were killed, of which about 10,000 were killed in battle, and the remaining 40,000 were killed by the Tayrong coalition forces during the retreat. It is said that the defeated army fled for three days and three nights, and the Taeyong coalition pursued them for three days and three nights, and did not stop the pursuit until they were exhausted. In addition, more than 30,000 people were captured by the Leiding coalition army.

With 30,000 men against 150,000 and more than 80,000 prisoners, no matter what your own losses were, this was a very amazing record. The entire world of Leiting was frightened, fearing that Gray would lead hundreds of thousands of Taeyong troops to overthrow the rule of the Mage Guild, so he hurriedly signed a peace agreement with the Taejong people, and even returned all the land he had occupied.

After summarizing the battle, the core members of the Truth Society believe that there are two main reasons for Gray's victory. One is to dispel the fears of the soldiers and stimulate their enthusiasm for battle; The second is that the right battlefield was chosen, which offset the disadvantage in terms of troops.

The core members of the Society of Truth believe in these two factors as a magic weapon to defeat the Leiding Wizards Association. They constantly inculcate in their members the idea that they are not afraid of the Wizards of Leiting, and repeatedly emphasize the exploitation and oppression of civilians by the Wizards' Guild. They believe that urban warfare is the weakness of the Leiding magician, and they have formulated a grand strategy of "taking the city first, then the countryside", and try to avoid fighting with the Leiding magician in a non-urban environment.

Because Gray was a theist, the Truth Society also abandoned atheism and converted to the God of Light. They summarized Gray's theological remarks, spreading the rumor that "anyone who prays to the god of light will receive mercy", and it was after hearing this rumor that Raiding began to believe in the god of light.

In order to ensure the success of the uprising, the Truth Society was fully prepared. They stored weapons and equipment capable of arming 20,000 men in dozens of secret strongholds in the city of Sakkin, and called on members and those to bring their own weapons. According to the conservative estimates of the core members, they could directly obtain 20,000 to 30,000 death-defying soldiers after the uprising, enough to capture the entire city of Sakin internally.

However, in the eyes of the entire Cornate family and the Brett Wizards Association, this strength can only barely be regarded as a big trouble. A group of armed men gathered together is not necessarily an army, as the riot in Village 29 illustrates. Unfortunately, the core members of the Truth Society were unaware of the riot, so in their opinion, they already had the power to overthrow the Cornate family and the Bright Wizards' Guild.

Ironically, the group of people who wanted to overthrow the notice of the Letting Wizards Association was none other than the Letin Magicians, and the civilian class only responded to their call, not the leaders. These idealists fantasize about building a free country where everyone is equal, but most of them do not regard their servants as an equal object to themselves.

Amireno was not carried away by the pressure, he knew that now was not the time for trouble, because the army was prepared, and a hard fight with them would cause great losses. He did not accept the congressman's suggestion, and after reassuring the congressman, he asked the congressmen to be ready to break out. As long as the military makes a move, they will break through at the first time and go to Saktin City to gather men and horses to revolt. (To be continued.) )
