23 The true God
The police, led by Detective Cousson himself, arrived at Grand at the same time as Zacyo's guests.
Let's not talk about the guests, did Detective Cousson lead the team as a surprise to everyone? Of course, it's because...... Oh, not surprising. Let's talk about the guests.
This guest is the only person Zach knows at Barton and understands the republican mythology - Eve Remer's son, Thorin Reimer (Eve's son in the human period, because his identity is too embarrassing, even in the Hidden Alliance era, Zach only knew that such a person existed when he went to the Tower of Babel last time).
"I want to thank you for giving me a reason to get out of Babel. Thorin entered Grande with a smile, but he couldn't laugh at all," I ...... I could come another day. Because he saw armed police break through the door of the Grande employee living quarters, and after all kinds of smashing sounds broke out, all kinds of realistic hunt shows were taking place.
"No, I don't. Zach ushered his guests into the office and drew the curtains, "They're busy with theirs, we're busy with ours~" handed over a fax file, "Can you tell what this is?"
The content of the fax is a sub-painting, which was sent to Zack by 'Her' last night, of course, with the caption that 'Her' specially wrote and translated for Zack, but Zach only showed Thorin an image first, and before advancing the topic, Zach needed to confirm how much Thorin knew about the god of the republic.
"This ......," Thorin looked at the painting Zach handed over, flipping it up and down, left and right, "isn't it a mirror?"
This is a very objective answer, and Zach nodded, "Yes, can you see anything else?"
"Yes. Thorin continued to look at a mirror painting, "Stylistically, this must not be the product of the civilization we are familiar with. Thorin was indeed walking in the right direction, and pointed the drawing towards Zach to illustrate, "Notice the overly wide frame?"
"Noticed. "Zach was just there to be a good deal of cooperation.
"See the special, scale-like markings on these frames?" Thorin continued to show Zach.
Zach began to think that he had made the right decision to find Thorin this time...... Though...... After that, I will definitely be hated by Eve.
Thorin's face had a very focused scholarly attitude, "This special sign has a very important meaning in the mythology of the republic, and legend has it that the combination of this mark can reveal ......" Thorin stretched out a finger and pointed to the sky, "the secrets of the sky." β
Zach held a caption of the painting in his hand, "You mean 'Heavenly Machine'. He handed Thorin one.
Thorin just looked surprised, "Do you speak republican?" and looked at the new document Zach handed over, "Oh, there's phonetic transcription on this, or phonetic transcription of our language." β
Yes, Zack's pronunciation of the standard 'Tianji' just now is an intimate phonetic annotation of 'He'.
Zach continued to point to the document handed to Sorrin, "The correct translation is fate, the republican word 'heaven' refers to this world, and 'heavenly secret' does not mean literally, but refers to the fate of this world. β
Thorin was stunned for a moment, and then had an inexplicable irritation, "It's over, my research is mostly wrong." But soon, he gave Zach an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, as we did last time we met, I'm collecting materials for the Wizard's experiments to bind the spirits, and as a side hustle, I'm sorting out the Republic's mythology system. "Sigh, he's Remer, so it's not some deliberate personification, it's a real sigh," I should thank you for telling me the right knowledge. β
"No thanks, you don't have to worry about your research. Zach didn't mean to comfort, "If you're looking for mythological information from the history of the republic, then you should know that the history of the republic is always related to mythology." Zach tilted his head, "Or rather, dehumanization." In the astonishing history of the republic, they have likened the center of their government to the 'sons of heaven' for the vast majority of the time. So your interpretation is not wrong, the 'secret of heaven' equals the fate of the world. β
Thorin's face changed to relaxation after a moment of thought, and he looked at Zach with a smile, "Now I really want to thank you." β
Zach was still, "No thanks. Motioned for Thorin to look at the papers. At the same time, I don't know if it's an exclamation or what, Zack: "It's just that the current republic is no longer 'dehumanizing' its own history." "It's definitely an exclamation," or a very extreme absolute humanization. β
Thorin was looking at the documents in his hand, and it didn't affect Zack's words, "Are you referring to the republican government's elimination of native aliens?"
Zach shrugged, what else could he mean.
A complicated smile appeared on Thorin's face, "I just hope that we will never stand in the way of human civilization in the future, so that our country will not personally make weapons to eliminate us." β
Zach didn't respond to the topic, a bit like the topic of whether vampires are cancer, and instead of setting up a flag now, it's better to live to see the facts at that time.
"Hmph~" Thorin saw something that caught his attention, "It says that the fate of the world on display ......" looked up at Zack, "It's actually just the ability to imprint the essence of things?"
The reason for the doubt is that anything that has the ability to display images, including mirrors, is in the knowledge of the Federation, or of the Lord's faith, this is the effect.
The essence of vampires is too 'ugly' (constantly corroding souls) to be shown in this world, so that God has specially added a law to this world, so that the image of vampires will completely disappear from this world. Now, of course, get rid of Toledo and Gangero.
Zach still had a few papers in his hand, and he wasn't going to give them to Sorin for the time being, "Don't ask, think, what does that mean." β
Thorin was quite obedient, "What does that mean?" with a thoughtful look, "In the past history of the republic, if the center of government is given a non-human, mythical purpose, it should indicate that the republican civilization is probably difficult to distinguish, and the ...... of people and non-human people" Sorin was not quite sure of his words, "atmosphere?"
Zach didn't affirm or deny it, only motioned for Thorin to continue.
Thorin continued, frowning, "I've always had a feeling when I was sorting out the myths of the republic, and there must be a reason for how the republic's characteristic of 'all aliens are gods' came to be. In the past republics, human and non-human beings must have lived together in a very close relationship in order to lead to a situation in which human beings are willing to worship any alien race as a god. β
Zach nodded this time, only encouraging to continue.
"Can I think that in the republican history in such an atmosphere, God is so mixed that it becomes something that cannot be distinguished by republican mankind? According to the custom of the republicans in the past, the god of wealth and the god of marriage must be clearly distinguished, right? Thorin re-lifted the mirror's drawing, "So they need a ...... to confirm that they themselves are not worshipping the wrong god Prop. β
Zach waited until Thorin finished speaking before commenting, "You're close. Zach finally handed over the new document to match Thorin's reading, "If we don't accept the statement that the republican aliens are all gods, and look at the republic with our worldview, then the republican alien race is just a non-human alien race. Zach spread his hands, "Alien is stronger than humans, in some way or in any way. It is easy for the alien race to fulfill the wishes of one or two human beings and recruit the belief of human beings. β
Thorin also saw the key, "False God." "Look at Zack," it says that those alien races who seek human worship for their own selfish interests are called false gods. "Even in the period of the history of the republican myth itself, this kind of false god is considered to be a ...... 'demon' that harms society, and in our language, it is a demon that represents evil." Thorin picked up the painting of the mirror again, "And this mirror is the prop that makes these evil demons manifest their true form. β
Zach handed over the last document, and at the same time, "And this prop, in the history of the republic, is recognized as the true god, because it helps the republican society to clear the hidden danger of false gods that may cause the republican civilization to deviate from the leadership of the 'Son of Heaven'." Zach said this very seriously, in order to maintain ...... Neutrality, "is still the true God who is recognized, because although it is now on the path of hindering the development of the republic, the attitude of the republican government towards it is not to purge it like other republican aliens, but to send it away." "As for why it's neutral, let's feel for yourself.
Thorin had some difficulty to take the document from Zack, he felt that he had taken a lesson with too much information, and now, it was the real reason why Zach invited him to come, "Where to send it?"
"Where God should be. β
Thorin glanced at the contents of the last document, "What is this?" is also a painting, because it is a fax, the color cannot be repeated, and the content of the picture is extremely confusing, it looks like a cloud of smoke.
"Do you remember the story you told me earlier, in republican mythology, where lonely creatures of eternity split chaos and created the world?"
Thorin nodded, his expression as if he had a hunch that he wouldn't like Zach's next words.
Zach: "Obviously, that's the moment when the world begins in republican mythology. Zach pursed his lips, "In our knowledge, that's when time begins in this world, and I'm sure you've been at Barton for so long, and they've worked with Sbella long enough. You know, where was the beginning of the world?"
"Purgatory?"
Zach nodded.
This is where the conversation ends.
When Detective Corson came in, Thorin calmly put away the documents Zack had given, "I'll go back and talk to the people in the lab, we might need to look up a lot of information." β
Zach hadn't forgotten why he had even brought Thorin to talk about it all of a suddenβat least we knew that 'Her' had used some of Toredo's field control skills to get Zach to agree to work on the project.
Zack's treatment of Thorin is basically just popular science. However, it seems that this science is enough for Thorin to get on the ship. Oh, the republican god or the alien, the attitude of the republican government, purgatory, which is not the concern of the wizards who worked closely with Thorin Remer?
However, this made Zach a little more vigilant, and he didn't need to persuade him to get support, which also meant that in the same way, 'He' could easily achieve the same effect if he found Sbella through Papa's midnight Rivench.
So why did Zach become the one who spoke in the middle?
There is only one reason, to be recognized as the mirror of the true God, and that is the power to reflect the essence of things.
Did this 'He', who had Torredo's blood, selfishly involve Zack, or was he instructed by Papa Midnight to try to touch ...... The ultimate vampire reward?
Whatever it was, Zach could only walk and watch.
Ask Detective Cousson to wait and send Thorin out, and after confirming that Sorin is in the dark car, he will return to the office to entertain Cowson, "You guys have arrested all of my employees at Grande. "That's what Zach saw when he sent Thorin just now.
"Everyone has resisted law enforcement, we can only ...... first" Corson was quite helpless, waving his hand, "Can you at least tell me what's going on?!"
"Didn't the operator who answered my call to the police tell me about the situation?" Zach asked rhetorically.
"Well, Mr. Grande, please don't fix me!" Cowson was also of true temperament, "just tell me what's going on!"
"I already said it when I called the police, I was woken up by old Hank and knew that my staff had locked up two seriously injured reporters in the basement, and that's it. I did what a normal citizen should do, call the police, what else do you want me to tell you?"
Corson's face turned blue for a moment, actually, "Is it because Lance ignores you, do you use this way to get his attention??"
Coulson's brain circuitry is also sufficient...... Rational.
Zach glanced at Curson, not knowing how to refute this 'ridiculous' statement. He didn't respond at all, "Are you going to take me back to the police station for questioning?"
Corson's mind was obviously overloaded, "Well, if you don't cooperate like that, I can't do anything else!"
If you don't cooperate, does that mean Zach doesn't answer the question just now?
Zach was crisp, "Let's go, then." Anyway, Grande was caught by you, and I'm bored to stay here. β
Corson was stunned for a moment, and then, "You ......"
Zach interrupted, "Leave one behind, leave Cyrus, he only came to work in the morning, I'm sure his family can testify, he must have nothing to do with this, detective, you say yes, it's okay to leave him to guard the door for me." "Makes sense.
Coulson was angry, he was really angry, "Since he has nothing to do with it, why didn't he cooperate just now?
"It's not because I didn't tell anyone about the police so that your arrest operation would not be disrupted. Your people suddenly come in and arrest people, who see it and don't hide, it's just instinct. And look, if that's not the case, do you think you're going to be able to catch so much of the stolen goods this time?" Zach continued to make sense, as if the world was cooperating with Zach, and there was the whistle of an ambulance driving away outside, "Did I do something wrong?
Corson stamped his foot. This middle-aged fritter actually stomped his feet in Grande's office, which is also quite cute~
Forget it, it's not funny, seriously, Zach continues to off Detective Corson for a while, and he can successfully feel the cells of the Southern Police Department.
Where is the noisy room of the Southern District Police Station? By the way, by the Evidence Department. Either way, Zach always had to look at this special place where the republican god could come to Barton, rather than sneaking around and tarnishing Zach's image. It's better to go to the right and bright, that's the reason.
