Chapter 61: Michelle's Purpose
Hearing this, Michelle frowned and said, "Today's matter has become so big, you still want to return to the Rieser family to be your noble young master? Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Benjamin asked, "Why can't it be?"
Michelle stopped and looked around. Seeing that this place was remote enough, and basically no one would pass by, she turned around and said to Benjamin:
"When a whole team of cleansers is dead, the church will not rest on its laurels. Even if the church and the nobles have an agreement not to interrogate the nobles, the people of the church will definitely try their best to find you and read your memories. You're already a mage, and the way you teach to read memories won't work for you anymore, and if the methods don't work, they'll find out who you are. β
...... What do you say?
Listening to this passage, Benjamin felt that his worldview had been turned upside down.
Not to mention the agreement between the church and the nobility, it is said that the church cannot read the memories of the mage. If the church really didn't read the mage's memories, then how did Benjamin's first two readings happen?
But listening to Michelle's solemn tone, Benjamin felt that what she said was true.
That...... What the hell is going on?
"I think she's right. However, the system suddenly jumped out and said, "The first time you were read the memory, it was the original memory of this body that was read, and the second time you read the memory, I submitted the fake memory." Your real memories have not actually been read, so that method is really ineffective for mages. β
Benjamin was stunned.
If you think about it, it seems that this is really the case......
Thinking about this, he suddenly felt that many things before made sense. No wonder the bishop didn't doubt him at all, in fact, being able to be read by the bishop was already a proof of innocence.
Not to mention the pact between that church and the nobility. Thinking back to the first two times I read the memory, the actions of the church were all sneaky, and it happened to bully Benjamin that he was young and didn't know about this agreement.
Thinking of this, Benjamin's favor for the church was again -1.
These people are insidious enough, too.
But......
In this case, in fact, his whitewashing plan has not been affected in any way.
"I can fake my memories and let them read them, and they will think that they have succeeded in reading their memories and will not find out that I am a mage. Thinking of this, Benjamin said to Michelle, "Actually, I've been read twice by the church, but you see, I'm not alive and well?"
At this moment, Michelle finally showed a surprised expression.
Falsifying memories is a great thing for people in this world, especially if it allows the church to dismiss a failure of a method as a success.
As a golden finger, the system can be regarded as a bit of a presence.
"I see. Michelle was very receptive, she thought for a moment, approved Benjamin's statement, and continued, "Then we can take advantage of this, the church is very confident in the means of reading memories." As long as you forge a copy of the memories of the Silent Academy's sudden appearance, killing all the purgators, and then taking you captive, you can push it all on them. β
"Silent Academy?"
Now, it was Benjamin's turn to be surprised.
Why is it suddenly on the Silent Academy again?
After thinking about it, Benjamin felt that although this proposal was not a big problem, it was not necessary.
No matter who this pot pushes, the final result will be similar. It is impossible for the church to really destroy the Silent Academy because of this - if they could have been exterminated, they would have been exterminated long ago, so why wait until now?
"That's right, the Academy of Silence, they're the only mage organization in the kingdom, and they've been hiding in the mountains to the west. However, Michelle seemed to think that Benjamin didn't know what the Silent Academy was, explaining, "In the letter I asked you to hand over to the church earlier, I wrote the details of the location of the Silent Academy in special ink on the back of the letterhead, and the church people should have found out about it." As long as we put today's matter on the Academy of Silence, the church will definitely go to war with them. β
The amount of information in Michelle's words was so great that Benjamin was stunned.
"The letter...... Are you talking about the letter that I was asked to hand over to the church with the words 'See me at the prison site in five days?'" He was a little confused, and couldn't help but ask another question to make sure he had heard correctly.
On the back of the letter, the detailed location of the Silent Academy is still written?
Michelle nodded and said, "Normally, you can't see it, but as long as you heat it up a little, those words will emerge on their own." These little tricks are obvious, and the bishop will surely find out. β
Benjamin was dumbfounded.
Damn, he didn't find out.
And this move is inevitably too deep!
The world of these people is too complicated. Who would have thought that Michelle's real purpose in writing that letter was to use Benjamin to convey the message of the Silent Academy to the church?
But even so......
What's the point of this move?
This brings us to Michelle's remarks just now, another point that makes Benjamin feel too informative.
"Why did you give the Church the address of the Academy of Silence and let the Church go to war against the Academy of Silence......? Do you have a grudge against them?" asked Benjamin.
Everyone is a mage, what misunderstanding can't you sit down and talk about, you have to be so ruthless?
Michelle borrowed a knife to kill people with a real slippery game.
You have to be careful, you can't offend Michelle in any way, otherwise you don't know how you died......
"I can't say that there is a grudge, at most there is a suspicion. Besides, even if the church used the detailed location of the Silent Academy, that place was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it would be difficult for the church to hit them hard if that group of people had been operating in the mountains for so long. However, she replied.
Benjamin was even more puzzled.
"Then why the hell are you doing this?"
Michelle shook his head and said with a slight mockery, "Because those guys are just a bunch of old stubborns." They also thought of themselves as mages of antiquity, and they thought of hiding in the mountains and worshipping their gods of Cain and magic. They had been at ease for so long that they had forgotten what the Church had done to the mages, and they didn't think it would happen again. β
Hearing this, Benjamin was thoughtful. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean......"
"I'm going to send the church to the Silent Academy and wake up those old stubborns. "If the mages want to stand up and restore their former glory, those old stubborns must first stand up and stand up to the church." Regardless, they are the only mage organization in the kingdom, and only they can generate such appeal. β
Speaking of this, Michelle paused, accentuated his tone, and made a summary of the whole reason:
"They don't want to come forward, so I'm going to use the church to force them to come forward. β
Benjamin finally understood what Michelle wanted to do.
This woman is ambitious.
The Church would never allow a mage to walk in the sun, so in other words, her goal was to overthrow the Church. This is not an easy thing to do.
Benjamin couldn't help but think of the words she and Anne had said in the beginning, when they were "sisters", "build a kingdom of mages". Although they had already begun to calculate with each other at that time, these words were sincere.
He really has ideals and ambitions.
Michelle has done so many things and counted so many people for this goal. Benjamin felt a little scary and a little admired.
Thinking of this, Benjamin couldn't help but ask again, "By the way, so...... Are you really a paladin?"
This question has actually bothered him for a long time.
The mage who made the bishop jealous of the Church was actually a paladin under the Church?
How stupid are the people of the church to get a mage in and get into the position of a paladin?
This is a question he'd wanted to ask all along, but before, they had been busy dealing with the cleaners. After dealing with the cleaners, the changes also came one after another. So Benjamin only now found an opportunity to ask the question.
"It's not as you might think it is inside the church. There are tens of thousands of paladins in the kingdom, and it is impossible to restrain them like a monolith. Michelle said, "Every knight will be taught to read his memories once when he becomes a paladin. After that, unless the paladin is involved in an important event during the mission, the church will not read his memories again, and other regulations will not be strict. That's why I've been able to keep my identity hidden and hide in the ranks of the paladins. β
Is it only read once at the beginning? No wonder......
Benjamin nodded thoughtfully.
He also thought that the paladins often had to go back to the church once and submit the mission report by reading the memory!
It seems that he still thinks too much of the church.
It is also said that the larger the system, the more difficult it is to manage. Despite all these years of dominance in the kingdom, the Church still has enemies and is constantly expanding outward. It is not difficult to understand that there has been some slackness within the church.
Only, if every paladin had a memory read at the beginning......
Benjamin looked at Michelle suspiciously.
Michelle also seemed to understand what Benjamin meant, nodded, and said, "That's right, I only became a mage after becoming a paladin." β
