Chapter 394: New Colors

"I have heard of this history that under the leadership of the Hero King, we humans united as one, and finally defeated the elves and defended our homeland. Gavin said.

"It's a pity, this history. No, it's not so much history as a story, and this story is also fake and completely virtual. ", the referee denied.

"What? it's fake!", Gavin was dumbfounded, he didn't know who to trust anymore, and even began to doubt the world.

"Actually, just think about it, at that time, the Hero King had just ended the four-country melee and unified the entire kingdom. And at that time, the kingdom was sparsely populated and in ruins because of years of war, how could it be possible to withstand the attack of the elves?"

"You must know that the elves are a powerful race of monsters. ”

"The Hero King once wanted to resist, but the army he organized was vulnerable to the magic of the elves. ", the referee continued.

"The elves want to avenge their fellow citizens because of the suffering of the dark elves, right?" asked Gavin.

"That's right, that's exactly what I said about the Dark Mage. ”

"They almost wiped out the entire human race!"

"And how did our ancestors survive this?", Gavin was curious.

"After all, the elves are a race that admires nature, and they are not bloodthirsty by nature, and they seem to think that if all of us humans are wiped out, it will hurt the peace of the heavens, and this is their philosophy. ”

And the Hero King took advantage of the temperament of the elves and made a request for peace. However, people are swordsmen, I am fish and meat, and the hero king also agreed to a series of requests from the elves. ”

"The elves' demands are not harsh, they only have two demands: the first is to punish the perpetrators, that is, to punish the dark magicians. The second requirement is that humanity must destroy this dangerous magical knowledge, never destroy nature again, and never develop this kind of black magic again. ”

"Actually, even if the elves don't bring it up, the Hero King wants to do it. The elves' request was exactly what he wanted, and the two sides hit it off, and with the assistance of the elves, the kingdom forces led by the Hero King began to sweep away the black magicians, almost sweeping away all the black magicians. ”

At the same time, in order to avoid such a tragedy again, a large number of magical materials and research results related to black magicians have been destroyed, and even affected the research of normal magic. ”

"In short, after this sweep, the level of human magic research has plummeted, and it has degenerated to an extremely rudimentary stage. ”

"I see, it's no wonder that the magic research of the mages is seriously broken, in addition to the suppression of the Inquisition, there is also such a reason. Gavin suddenly realized.

"Exactly. The referee nodded, "It was at that time that the Holy Sect came into being. ”

Gavin perked up and realized that the main event had arrived.

"At that time, the people of insight from the top down from the Hero King had fully understood the power of the elementals. If we can't use and study the elements, then how can we humans survive in this world?"

So the higher-ups at the time realized that it was not advisable to suppress the study of magic. Magic should be the ladder of human progress, not an obstacle. “

"But the question arises, how can we avoid the birth of the Dark Magician, and how can we avoid the recurrence of the previous tragedy?"

"To artificially create a regulatory body, and that body is the Holy Church?", Gavin had already guessed the outcome.

"Yes, exactly. Humanity needs such an institution to track, monitor, and manage the development of magic, to control the curiosity and exploration of those mages, and to put shackles and shackles on those mages. ”

"But why make up a god, and go to great lengths to tell such a big lie?", Gavin asked.

"This is due to a number of factors, first of all, this inspection body must be stable for a long time, so the royal family of the kingdom does not meet the requirements. The world is big, it will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, and the rise and fall of the changes are unpredictable. If this royal family is destroyed, what will happen to this oversight?"

"Secondly, this institution should have great power, otherwise how can it control those powerful mages, and how can it supervise them?

"Again, the members of this body should have a heart of awe. Because they have great power in their hands, and if they can't control their desires, the use of this power will sooner or later go astray. ”

"That's why you made up a false god and made everyone awe-inspired?"

The referee nodded, "Exactly. The gods are above, omniscient and omnipotent. A series of legends such as heaven and hell are made up in order to make people have a heart of awe. ”

"What could be more awe-inspiring than a god?"

Not only that, but the ancestors also compiled the holy scriptures, in which they agreed on the six holy commandments, as well as various rules and precepts for the holy people, in order to bind this powerful overseer. ”

"And the tribunal is the executive arm of this regulatory body. The referee pointed around.

"The Inquisition has been monitoring the magic research of the mages, and once they have developed powerful magic, it will have a very destructive effect. will do their best to destroy the results of these magical research and restrain the mages who study this kind of magic, which is the origin of the black prison. ”

"Over the course of history, the role of the Inquisition has not been limited to monitoring the mages, but has also evolved into the role of supervising the nobility. In this sense, the Holy Cult became not only the regulator of the mages, but also the regulator of the nobility. ”

At the same time, it has also become a thorn in the side of mages and nobles. ”

"So all in all, the original intention of the establishment of the Holy Sect was for the sake of the development of all human races, and its intention was good, and it has indeed played a very good role in so many years of history. ”

"So the establishment of the Holy Religion was a joint decision of the ancestors?"

"That's right. "It was the joint decision of the sages who established the kingdom of St. Teresa, otherwise how could the Holy Religion have developed so rapidly? ”

"However, now the Holy Religion has become a sworn enemy of the royal family, an enemy of the heavens. Gavin sarcastically said.

The chief judge was silent, and after a while he said slowly, "Nothing in this world is immutable, whether it is this holy religion or this kingdom. ”

"Was the Kingdom of St. Teresa established for the sake of the nobility and royalty?, no, it was for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and not to suffer from war. ”

"Is the Holy Religion established to pretend to be a god and a vanity fair for careerists to compete for power and fortune and plunder wealth? No, it is for people to have a better grasp of the elements, so that the power of the elements can be a blessing to mankind, not a curse. ”

"But with the washing of time, all the good colors have faded away, leaving only stubborn stains and ugliness. ”

"What we're going to do is we're going to reapply the new color to this little bit of stain. ”
