Chapter 53: Secrets Are Hidden
While Tatsuno Makoto and the others were exploring the underground palace, the misty illusion and the law enforcement team had quietly left here, and before leaving, the law enforcement team left several useless bounty orders in the ruins city. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
If this kind of bounty order is useful, those wanted felons will not go out of their way to hide in the major ruins of the Federation.
As soon as the misty illusion returned to Sakura City with the law enforcement team, he saw several Cult sanctioners of the Creation God Cult wearing black corset church robes, holding a white-haired young man who was tightly chained in shackles reading something, and an old couple beside him was pleading bitterly. The surrounding onlookers were whispering, looking at the old couple with a hint of sympathy in their eyes.
"Hereby, in the name of the creator God, it is declared that Kargis is a heretic and will be placed before the Inquisition of the Temple. ”
In the same way, Misty Illusion had heard it many times before coming to Sakura City. After the last sealing of the ruins, the Cult of Creation began a large-scale cleanup of heretics, and countless innocent residents were secretly executed under the label of heretics.
Although the heresy cleanup has only been underway for three days, the number of executions is conservatively estimated to be more than 200, and the number is rising.
A hint of disdain flashed in the misty illusion's eyes, and he snorted coldly.
"Just with these cats and dogs, let alone catching those guys in the ruins, it would be a miracle if they could come back alive. ”
Leaving the crowd with a blank face, Misty Fantasy still couldn't understand that it was also the largest organization in the Federation. The reason why the Supreme Council has been so cold about this incident is so cold.
In the Supreme Council, the bigwigs of all parties elected to the Senate can only deal with routine matters. What is really related to the fate of the Federation is determined by the mysterious existence known as the Ten Sages.
According to rumors, the Ten Sages have been around since the time of the Battle of Dawn, and they hold the truth of the Battle of Dawn and all the powerful spells of that time. But it is not known whether these ten sages really existed, or whether they were invented by the Supreme Council to increase their power.
In short, in the Federation, there are various theories about the rumors of the Ten Sages. The identity of the misty illusion, not to mention the ten sages, even the real bigwigs of the Supreme Council have not been seen a few times.
But Misty Illusion knew that the Ten Sages were real. Because in addition to his identity as the deputy captain of the Supreme Council's Law Enforcement Corps, he also has an unknown identity, that is, the infiltrator of the secret organization True Eye.
"The world as it really is has been buried, and it is our duty to dig up the truth and let the world appear in its true form. ”
The purpose and manifesto of the True Eye is only one sentence. No one knows how many members of the organization are, and all the people who join the organization are cultivated from a young age, and then imprinted in the soul with the phrase almost brainwashing. When they reach adulthood, they are scattered throughout the towns and cities of the Federation, where they are left to their own devices. And these people are called infiltrators.
No one knows where the organization is located, as these infiltrators, who have been cultivated since childhood, rely on directional teleportation scrolls to get in and out. The subjects of the training are also varied, including the history of the Federation, the cultivation of martial arts spells, stealing information, and even life skills such as iron-striking and cooking.
How to dig up the truth, the method given by the organization is to break the seal. It is not clear what the seal is, and all the members are working hard to unlock a seal that they don't know what it is. I have to say that the brainwashing work of the True Eye is well done, and no one has any doubts about this vague goal.
Every infiltrator who leaves the Order's training base gradually assimilates into the normal life of the Federation, and they don't even know who else is their companion except themselves. But no matter where they are, the organization can always find them and give some instructions. The one who broke the seal in the ruins was a member of the True Eye, which of course was surmised by the Fog Phantom after the fact.
Mist Fantasy is an infiltrator in this organization, relying on his excellent sword skills and martial arts skills to become the deputy captain of the law enforcement team directly under the Supreme Council. So far, he has not received any orders, but instinctively gathers information that may be needed by the organization.
The information about the Ten Sages was already known when Misty Illusion was young. These are the ten old immortals who have survived from the Battle of Dawn to the present, and of course this is the understanding of the Fog Illusion. But this time, the Ten Sages, who were silently manipulating the trajectory of the Federation behind their backs, reacted very coldly to the matter of the seal.
Perhaps the Cult of Creation has information that even the Ten Sages don't know, which is the only reason Misty Illusion can explain this incident.
Sitting on the departing airship, the fog looked thoughtfully at the white clouds outside the window. Bringing back the people in the ruins who had prevented the Creaters from reinforcing the seal was obviously impossible. Although he hadn't directly fought with those three people, through the reports of Fajar and Bell, those three people were able to use spells and martial arts at the same time, and this alone could not be someone who could be caught simply, maybe the old immortal brains of the Ten Sages had been weathered.
In the Holy See of the Creation God in the City of the Chosen One, the young Pope Enor was drinking tea elegantly, and the deacon of the Holy See beside him was reporting on the handling of heresy.
"That's all for the current clean-up of heretics, Pope. The deacon folded his papers and waited for Enor's orders.
"Please bring me the pillow over there, I'm always a little sleepy after tea. Enore yawned and gestured to the side of the pillow.
The deacon was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly handed over the pillow. Finding a comfortable position, Enor lay lazily on the sofa and waved his hand casually.
"Go and talk to Bishop Maurice about these situations, and he will decide the rest of the arrangements, and I'm going to sleep for a while. Enor rolled over and stopped talking.
The deacon bowed respectfully, gently pushed the door open and walked out. Hearing the sound of the door closing softly, Enor turned over and sat up, the green tendons on his forehead throbbing violently.
Two hundred and sixty-four people were cleaned up in three days, and this is a naked killing. If the three guys who broke the seal could be cleared so easily, then they wouldn't be able to stop Harlem from reinforcing the seal.
Is justice and love to easily erase so many innocent lives for the sake of a trumped-up prophecy? Enor tried to calm himself down, and it was not yet time for this damn Cult of Creation to rot completely, and the righteous and awe-inspiring people of the Federation were coaxing, in essence, to restore the era when all nations were under the control of the Holy See before the War of Dawn.
To put it bluntly, he is to compete with the Supreme Council for the supreme ruling power of the Federation, and he is the cannon fodder that is brought to the table in the struggle for power.
Enor never forgets how he became Pope. Originally, he was just the deacon of the previous pope, but after the death of the previous pope, Cardinal Maurice, who was supposed to be the pope, gave up the position of pope to himself, a small deacon.
Enor never believed that the Pope, who had kindly instructed him in the Prophetic Spell the day before, would suddenly die of illness the next day. And the reason for this is that a month after the death of the previous Pope, Enor received a letter from the Pope to himself.
It was also after receiving this letter that Enor learned the secrets of the Cult of Creation. At the same time, it also planted the spark of revenge for the previous pope.
