Chapter 6: Cults and Secret Parties
In this way, Victor slowly explained the ins and outs of the whole incident to the rest of the team.
Merella Morningdew, the name of the Elven Ranger is well known to Urs and Thea, after all, when the young man and the wolf-eared girl first arrived, they "unruly" ran to the abandoned empty house in the slums of the city to take care of the Babu Demon Warrior Orokanshut lurking in the labyrinth of oil paintings, thus freeing the soul of the Elven Ranger Merella, and rightfully obtaining the control of the haunted hut, and using it as a stronghold for a short period of time for the daily use of accommodation.
Urs knew that Merella's tragedy had occurred in the Gonzawa region fifteen years ago, when a mysterious and evil spellcaster gifted an oil painting of a hidden conspiracy to the elven ranger who believed in Liv, the goddess of life, and turned Merella's Ranger Hut into a haunted abandoned house.
Victor supplemented the information Urs knew, informing the young man and the Thorn Squad that the mysterious and evil spellcaster was most likely Sana, or another evil sorcerer named Ruth, who was unknown to everyone, so the Lord simply mentioned it in passing, implying that Sana was more likely, and then moved on to the next stage of the topic of the cause and effect of the incident.
About the establishment of Twilight City.
Half a year after the abandoned empty house incident, the dragon mage city lord came to Okazawa and used a huge amount of private funds to establish the city of Twilight, and the area of the city soon included the abandoned empty houses after a period of development.
Some conspiracy theorists once believed that the mage lord had an inexplicable relationship with the haunted hut. Victedo did not deny this argument, but he pointed out that he had no ill will towards the elven ranger named Merella Morningdew, and that everything he did was based on the fact that he had been killed.
The first force that stirred up the whole incident was the Doomsday Cult - that cult that believed in a special kind of evil god.
The Doomsday Cult does not have a single supreme pope, and the highest level of power is composed of several powerful people who are called "Doomsday Apostles", and Sana and Entropy are the two Doomsday Apostles.
The Apostles of Doom worked hard to summon the evil gods they believed in to the main physical plane......
"But, please wait, honorable lord of the city." Hearing Victor talk about this, Thea, who was preoccupied, suddenly caught a small contradiction and asked it politely, "Regarding this issue, didn't the laws of the world formulated by Vawnes, the Lord of the Gods, not allow the power of the Godhead to officially appear on the main material plane from beginning to end?" ”
The wolf-eared girl's question was a one-of-a-kind question that echoed everyone's thoughts, except perhaps for Koto, who was so misty that he was about to doze off.
Urs thought of the same place as Thea, but the young man had originally decided to keep this question for the time being, and listen to the main point of the mage city lord's speech first.
Stone Fist's ideas were similar to those of Urs, and the discipline of order pursued by the warrior monks required him to listen patiently to what the other party had to say before expressing his opinion.
The dark purple eyes of the jaybird swirled quietly in the sockets under the hood, as she sat in her place without saying a word, and no one knew what the mind of the Drow poet was thinking, and the only thing that was certain of her was that her essence was not as evil as most dark spirits, as evidenced by the "detection of evil" performed on her by some of the city who had inadvertently discovered her racial identity during this extraordinary time.
Thanks to the "nosy" paladins, Miss Poet's activities in the city were much easier than ever, and at least the townspeople knew that she was not evil in nature, and gradually accepted her street performances more or less during this time.
Prejudice and discrimination, though still there, were harmless, and there was little to make a reputational storm around Miss Poet, who was still a member of the Thorn Squad anyway, and the Thorn Squad's reputation had spread throughout the city after several battles in that night's calamity, and everyone knew that the members of the squad were heroes who had helped everyone defend the city.
Victor closed the gushing mouth under the tin bucket, and his majestic gaze was projected from the two eyeholes full of funny effects, looking at the wolf-eared girl who asked the question, his tone paused, and then explained: "Yes, the will of Vain is irresistible in the main material plane in which we live, and even in the entire multiverse of Castaño. ”
"In that case......" Thea blinked in confusion.
"But have you ever thought about it, little girl? Since this law applies to the entire multiverse in which we live, it proves that it has a scope for effect. Victedo interrupted the wolf-eared girl this time, expressing his theory through a hint of rhetorical questioning.
"It's like the normal radius of the fireball technique's effect is twenty feet." The half-elf head of the Adventurers' Guild sat next to the city lord and added appropriately, "Beyond the range of this spell, the mage will not be able to harm enemies outside the range of the spell. ”
"That's a good example, my clever little Irina." Victor fondly stroked the blonde hair on the head of the head of the association, and then turned his gaze back to the others, "In short, I have to tell you clearly that the evil gods of the Doomsday Cult are beyond the scope of Vaughans's laws and come from outside our multiverse. Those horrible creatures are indescribable, they are 'gods out there', they are not bound by our laws, and they cannot invade our world for the time being...... Unless the evil plans of the Doomsday Holy Church succeed smoothly. ”
With that, the city lord's gaze swept over the adventurers' faces one by one.
Koto was still in a half-dozing "vertigo" state, leaving it alone for the time being......
Xia's and Stone Fist's expressions were stunned, and the girl and the warrior monk were obviously unable to quickly digest the information contained in this information as the mage city lord expected, and felt that what they had heard with their own ears would not ...... A little too exaggerated? Just like some bards deliberately exaggerate their hypocritical speeches in order to attract attention.
After all, the information mentioned in Victedo's words can be said to be very explosive, enough to subvert the worldview of normal people, and even with the knowledge of a formal mage, he may not be able to accept and understand it immediately, let alone the wolf-eared priest girl and orc warrior monk here.
What he tells is unheard of by young girls and warrior monks.
The facial expression of the crow was hidden under the hood of the black robe, and the sitting posture of the body remained calm, but I don't know if it was because she was stunned, or if she knew something about it, or if the poet's mental quality was really strong.
Urs has memories of his past life, and understands that the Doomsday Cult and the "gods outside" mentioned in Victedo's words are important things related to the future "eternal dark catastrophe".
The young man's expression was therefore more natural than that of the wolf-eared girl and the orc monk, and he thoughtfully sorted out his memories according to Victedo's words, and then listened to Victedo mention more......
After all that had happened, he had a strange instinct that there might be something in this life that was different from what he knew in his previous life.
Victedo observes the group intently, and then continues, followed by another group that is opposed to the Doomsday Cult.
It was a secret party called "Blood of the Origin".
Associated with a lost glory......
