"It's hard for you to have an accurate understanding of the association just by explaining, so let me take you to the association's headquarters."

Wang Mingliang didn't care about Xia Min's arrogance, anyway, he already knew what Xia Min's urine sex was, and he behaved very calmly.

Xia Min was a little surprised: "This is not the headquarters?" Is the big place just a branch? ”

It stands to reason that this kind of paradise-like place is the most suitable for being the secret base of some mysterious organization, and it is such a big villa, no, after Xia Min's observation, it is not an exaggeration to call it a manor.

Wang Mingliang shook his head: "This is not a branch..."

"Harm." Xia Min shrugged his shoulders: "I'll just say, such a big pomp and circumstance looks like Professor X's castle, and it would be embarrassing if it was just a branch." ”

Wang Mingliang didn't answer, but continued: "This is just Feng Lao's private mansion. ”

"?" Xia Min was shocked by the power of money: "Private mansion? ”

"That's right." Wang Mingliang looked at Xia Min with a rare and strange gaze: "Didn't Elder Feng tell you?" He is the founder of the largest Henghai Group in Anseong, which is nothing more than one of his resorts, and of course, is also used for some of the work of the Liberation Society. ”

Speaking of this, Xia Min guessed something: "That Feng Lao..."

"It's the current president of the Liberation Association."

……

Under the leadership of Wang Mingming, Xia Min got into the car bound for the headquarters, and Wang Mingliang introduced the basic situation of the Liberation Association to him while driving.

"I believe Elder Feng told you about the general background of the association."

"Hmm... I talked about it in general terms, but I didn't go into too much detail, so I mainly mentioned some of the missions and beliefs of the Liberation Association. ”

"Then let me start with the origins of the guild and tell you, do you know about the Black Death?"

"Well, it's a terrible disaster, it has occurred on a large scale three times, and even now there is almost no cure, but it seems that it has hardly disappeared in the past hundred years, or it has only erupted on a small scale." Xia Min said heavily.

"That's right." Wang Mingliang nodded appreciatively: "Around the fourteenth century, the Black Death began to ravage Europe for the second time, and the blow to Europe at that time was fatal, the famous Italian city of Florence, more than 90,000 people died, and 50,000 people died, and almost 100% of the infection will die." ”

"Uh... Could it be that the Liberation Association did it? ”

“……”

"You go on..."

"At that time, the medical conditions were very backward, and in this context, there were many witch doctors or other non-standard doctors, by the way, the famous bird's beak doctor appeared at that time, and it was also a sign of the times."

"In fact, strictly speaking, the Black Death was a plague, but because it was a human ignorance and fear of death, they regarded it as a punishment from the gods, in order to punish people for daring to challenge nature and contact mysterious powers."

"At that time, there was a very transcendent existence, called wizards by those who believed in them, because for some unknown reason, wizards were all women, so they were also directly called witches, they could communicate with nature, psychic, or do a lot of supernatural things."

"It was believed that it was their presence that caused the gods to displease and bring down these calamities, so many people who called themselves witchers appeared, and their purpose was to kill every witch in Europe, yes, they believed that witches were messengers of demons, and dared to challenge the heresy of God."

"They blamed witches for the Black Death and began a century-long slaughter and hunt."

"Witches are indeed very powerful, but the conditions for becoming a witch are very strict, and every girl who is one out of ten thousand miles has the opportunity to become a witch after going through countless tribulations."

"And the witcher, to put it bluntly, is some killers, assassins, or outlaws, they can get a bounty for every witch they kill, and the cost of becoming a witch is very low, even if a witch hunter can't kill a witch, dozens of people, they can always be replaced."

"There are fewer and fewer witches, more and more people become witchers for money, and after more than a century, witches are almost extinct."

"However, there is always a silver lining in everything, and when the last witch was discovered, the witchers were shocked to find that it was different from all the witches in the past, she was more like a god, a god who could face all the witchers alone, her sacredness, her light, melted all the witchers in the final battle, and made the Black Death, which had raged for a century, temporarily disappear."

"However, in such a long time, the Black Death has already claimed hundreds of millions of lives, and there is a threat not only of the remnants of the plague, but also the evil spirits of those who died of the Black Death, and how much pain they endured before death, how strong the evil spirits turned into after death."

"People started asking for help from the last witch because she had let the Black Death go away, and she was the only one who could organize these guys, but the witch seemed to have disappeared and no one ever found her again."

"But soon, when people were desperate for the power of the evil spirits and the night that made people tremble, a mysterious force appeared, fighting for the removal of the spirits, maintaining the balance between the spirits and people, and at the same time preventing the Black Death from coming again and taking people's lives."

"Yes, this is the original Liberation Society, and the last witch is the founder of the Liberation Society, her name cannot be left in people's memory, even if they hear it, they will forget it, just like an undesecrated sacred thing, mortals cannot touch it at all, therefore, people call her a witch."

"To this day, the Liberation Spirit Association is still fighting against the spirits, but fortunately, in recent centuries, although there are still occasional Black Deaths, but it is not as terrifying as it was then, and most of the people who usually deal with them are some unjust ghosts, which is relatively safe."

"I have seen in ancient books about the struggle between the Liberation Society and those evil spirits in the Middle Ages, and I can only say that it was an absolute hell, and almost every time the spirit was removed, almost all members of the association died, and the degree of tragedy is incomparable today."

Wang Mingliang said with great emotion, although it was not the first time he had told the history of the Liberation Association, but every time he recalled the little thing he saw in the ancient books, he also felt that the mythical and epic legend was shocking.

Xia Min was also surprised to hear it, he never thought that the origin of the Liberation Association was like this, he even thought that the origin of the Liberation Association was that two Taoist priests on the mountain were bored and went down the mountain to beat ghosts, and beat up a business.

"Wait." Xia Min suddenly felt a little strange: "Why is the European Liberation Association here now?" ”

"Who said this is the headquarters of the Liberation Society?" Wang Mingliang looked like he had never seen the world: "We are going to our country's headquarters. ”

"The Black Death occurred in many countries in history, so in order to maintain the security of the country, people of insight in many countries spontaneously established the Liberation Association, and formed an alliance with the first European Liberation Association, so today's Liberation Association is actually an organization similar to the United Nations."

"The Black Death also appeared in our country in the past, so our country also has the Liberation Spirit Association, which exists as an alliance force, because it is ancient, so the spirit is written in traditional characters, hey, I can't write this word until now."

"That means... Does magic really exist? That god and witch must have mastered extremely powerful power, right? ”

Wang Mingliang shook his head: "I knew you would ask this, maybe magic did exist at that time, but it is impossible to appear now." ”

"Why?"

"Because the psychic tree is gone."

"The Psychic Tree? What the heck? ”

Looking at Xia Min's confused appearance, Wang Mingming smiled mysteriously:

"The Psychic Tree is called Jianmu in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the World Tree in Norse mythology."
