39 The World of Lies (13)

After the Guardians had vanished into the silence of the night, the beast began to look at the Inquisitors beside them. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he found that these people are unique, some of them are two meters tall, unusually burly and strong, some look like a little bit, the age should be about ten years old, and some of them exude a peculiar smell of potion, which makes people who smell it linger for a while.

But no matter how much the beast looked, he couldn't see the faces of these people clearly, and they didn't seem to want to show their true faces to the beast. Just when the beast was about to come forward to say hello, they returned to the dark street corner, and even An Lin lurked in the night, as if they were the followers of the Father of Machines hidden in the dark, not seeking any fame and fortune, quietly living in the night of the world, but doing things that changed the world.

The Father looked in the direction of the guardians' departures and said to the beast, "I guess you must be curious to know what kind of organization the Holy City is. ”

The beast struck a spirit, and he looked at the Father with delight, who seemed to be about to tell him about the Holy City.

The Father sat back on the edge of the pool, as if sitting down and talking was the easiest way for him to feel, and he motioned for the beast to sit down again and said, "More than five hundred and seventy years ago, I don't know what year it was. At that time, there were many countries on the American continent, one of which was called the Kingdom of Glory, and this country had a prince named Bart Distair. ”

"Bart!? The one who unified the American continent and established the Shining Empire? The beast wondered.

"That's the guy," said the father slowly, "one day he was studying in the dormitory, and the cicadas outside the house kept disturbing him, so he pulled some people to catch cicadas for him, and by the way, they played and read together." But there were not so many cicadas to catch in the trees, so these idle followers often went to the market to collect folk anecdotes for him, and over time, these followers formed an organized and premeditated intelligence agency, which was also the predecessor of the Holy City, but at that time this budding intelligence organization was not called the Holy City, but called the Falcon. ”

"In other words, that legend is fake, and the Holy City is not a dungeon civilization that has survived from ancient times at all?" The beast asked.

"You can say that," the father seemed to think of something funny, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In the end, Bart became the king of the kingdom of Shine, and many years later, he unified the entire American continent and established the Shinelight Empire, which continues to this day, and Falcon became the world's leading intelligence agency at the time. But the question of which prince the throne will be passed on to has always troubled him, and the eldest prince and the fourth prince are his most favored heirs to the throne, and they are also the reason for his hesitation. Let me ask you a historical question, which prince inherited the throne in the end? ”

The beast blurted out without thinking: "The second emperor of the Yaoguang Empire is the eldest prince Malloy. ”

"That's right, the eldest prince Malloy became the emperor, but the fourth prince Chuli inherited the falcon." The Father said.

"Who is Chuli? Shouldn't the four princes at that time be Cologne? The beast was puzzled, he had never heard of the name Chuli.

"Coren was originally the fifth prince, as for why he became the fourth prince, I will tell you in the end." "Bart hopes that Chuli can assist Malloy so that the Dynstair family can maintain their royal status forever. But Chully, who succeeded the Falcon, had no ambitions, on the contrary, he was a peace-loving man of real power. After Barthes' death, his brother Malloy vowed to unify the world, despite the courtiers' obstructions. In order to prevent the Yaoguang Empire from realizing militarism, Chuli led the falcon to obstruct Malloy's ambition to dominate in secret, sometimes the expeditionary force was assassinated before the expeditionary force set off, and sometimes the grain and grass were looted by mysterious people, and finally Malloy found out that his younger brother was secretly obstructing him, guess what happened later? ”

The beast thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Chuli was killed?" ”

"Of course Malloy wants to take out Chuli, but he doesn't have that strength." "The Falcon is an intelligence organization that infiltrates all corners of the Radiant Empire, and if they want to assassinate Malloy, he will never dare to take a single step out of the palace. ”

"But history says Malloy lived to be seventy-two years old, not assassinated." "That means Chuli didn't kill his brother." ”

"Yes, Chuli is a contradictory man, he can control the falcon with iron and blood, but he has compassion for his brother, if he had been ruthless in killing his brother and usurping the throne, then the history of the world will also be rewritten, and the Holy City may not exist." "Malloy knew he didn't have the strength to annihilate the Falcon, so he issued a decree abolishing the Falcon as an intelligence agency and removing Chuli from the Dazzling Imperial Family. This move angered Falcon and the magnates who sided with Chuli, but Chuli became disheartened by his brother, and finally he chose to withdraw from the stage of power struggle, disbanded Falcon and disappeared from view. And in order to eliminate Chuli's influence in the empire, Malloy used many methods to make people forget that there was such a prince in the Dazzling Light Empire. ”

When the beast heard this, it suddenly dawned on him, no wonder history has never recorded that Bart the Great had a prince named Chuli, and he asked with interest: "What happened to Chuli in the end?" ”

Apparently a competent storyteller, he piqued the curiosity of the beast and then said unhurriedly: "Quite, who retired from the stage of power struggle, became an archaeologist, and the exploration of ancient civilizations has always been his passion, but in the end he found a miraculous ruin, which is the underground city located in Huangyan State. ”

Dungeons! The beast exclaimed, "The dungeon really exists! ”

"Of course it exists, the dungeon built by Caton Daniel was completed not long after we left, but unfortunately the dungeon is not perfect, after the resources are exhausted, the dungeon has become a ghost town, the phenomenon of cannibalism can be seen everywhere, and the ravages of plague have also caused a fault in civilization. This sanctuary for humanity fell like a meteor just over a hundred years after it was built. In the end, only a few hundred people escaped from the dungeon, accounting for about 3% of the peak population. And their intelligence has degraded to primitive times, and most of the people of the Radiant Empire today are descendants of the same people who fled the dungeons in the first place. ”

The beast looked at the Father in shock, and the latter said that the dungeon would not be completed until he was gone! With a trill, he asked, "How old are you?" ”

The Robot Father kept putting on a look of surprise, perhaps he didn't realize how shocking the words he had said. He still said unhurriedly: "Time in space is difficult to calculate, but if you calculate it in terms of Earth days, it has been about 19,700 years since I was created. ”

The beast glared at it and said, "Ten thousand. . . Nine thousand seven hundred years!! ”

"But the passage of time that we really feel is only a few hundred years, and we don't feel the other 19,000 years or so. It's a bit far, let's go back to the Holy City, I'll tell you about us in the future. "While Chuli was working as an archaeologist, the 'Hidden Ones' established by Malloy himself wantonly killed the magnates who once stood on Chuli's side, and even the Falcon backbones hiding in all corners of the empire were inevitably hunted down. Malloy even sent two assassinations to assassinate Chuli, but he was unsuccessful, but he would not stop there, believing that Chuli had threatened his rule. Forced by his brother's cruelty, Chuli once again rallied the Falcon to fight against the Hidden Ones, during which many Falcon members lurked in the church as members of the Light Cult, and these people were the founders of the Earth Cult. ”

The beast's face changed, and he said in surprise: "It turns out that the Earth Sect was not founded by that missionary named Katon!" ”

"Caton's establishment of the Earth Cult is nothing more than a rumor released by the Holy City, just like the Holy City is a dungeon civilization." The Father of the Machine said disdainfully, "Malloy died because of his unbridled desolation before he could annihilate Chuli and his falcon, and his son was no match for Chuli after he succeeded to the throne, and finally became a puppet emperor." However, Chuli's heart has always been kind, and he does not want to seize power or spread the flames of war, so he decides to form a hidden organization to guard the world at night. ”

"That organization is the Holy City!" The beast blurted out.

"Yes, the sixty-five-year-old Chuli officially established the Holy City four hundred and seventy-one years ago, that is, in the year 13491 of the Winter Era, in order to deter the Holy City from future generations, he built a new underground city in Huangyan Prefecture, and let the Holy City guard the Yaoguang Empire in the name of the underground city, and also prevent the spread of militarism. And because he was expelled from the Dazzling Imperial Family, and because he discovered the dungeon built by humans in ancient times, he changed his name to Chuli St. Caton, which is the history of the Holy City. ”

The beast's expression showed a solemnity, and the mechanical father in front of him was like an all-powerful god, making him feel breathless. These earth-shattering secrets are enough to sensational the whole world, and from the previous conversation with the Father of Machines, it seems that there is a more shocking secret than this!

He seemed to think of something, and then sighed: "I'll just say how those politicians and businessmen who are neither Caysie factions nor royal families survived, it turns out that these so-called neutral factions are all from the Holy City!" ”

When he said this, he thought of the typical neutral chaebol family, the Morco family, which has been inherited for more than 200 years, and its background is unusually thick, but it is also extremely low-key, and occasionally there are some gentlemen who make people look down on them. But they were able to continue to develop under the pressure of the Casey faction and the royal family, which can only show that they have a backstage that is no less than these two forces, and the beast has only now discovered how complicated the pattern of this world is!

If he knew that the distant Pacific Ocean was home to a mutant civilization, I wonder if he would feel that he was living in a world of lies that had been artificially set up all along.

The father looked at the white of the fish belly in the distant sky, and said, "It's not too late, let's go." When he had finished speaking, he got up and wanted to leave.

"Where are we going?" The beast asked, standing up.

"Go to the wasteland and let the group of ghost group guardians led by the white dragon become our people."
