Chapter 353: Reason and Truth
Become a demigod! Only when you become a demigod can you have a little room to meddle in this matter, and you are qualified to know the truth."
This was the promise that Abner had given Hugh before boarding the White Onyx in Damir Harbor.
And now, after more than a year, Hugh finally made himself meet the conditions and looked expectantly at Abner beside him.
Although she said that she had investigated the cause of her father's death Mason Dill to some extent.
Abner had no intention of paying his bills, but his viscount's mansion was not a good place to talk, so after taking Hugh to his bedroom, he prayed "respectfully" to Mr. Fool......
Moments later, Mr. Tower and Miss Judgment appeared on either side of the old banbarge table.
Abner looked left and right, and while he didn't notice anyone else, he knew that Crane must be eavesdropping in the shadows.
However, Abner didn't care about this, just looked at Miss "Judgment" on the other side, and said with a smile, "What do you want to know?"
"What was the immediate cause of my father's death?" Hugh pursed his lips and asked.
Abner replied with the following statement: "Count Mason Deere has discovered the secret of George III, and because he has acted against his conscience, he is determined to inform the three major churches......
"But it's a pity that because of the betrayal of his deputy, and the 'outsiders' like him have long been monitored by the Rune royal family, his plan failed and he was executed on the spot."
Although his answer is based on the original book, it is also the result of real "insight".
Since he learned about the various manipulations of "himself", Abner has not been very "superstitious" about the plot of the original book.
Hearing this, Hugh sighed, as if she had finally confirmed her guess, she thought for a moment, and spoke again:
"The King's secret is why you have been refusing to tell me the truth? Does that involve something dangerous?"
Abner gave Hugh an appreciative look, nodded, and said, "That's right...... To tell you the truth, if I hadn't been sure of that person's attitude, I wouldn't have dared to tell you even now."
"The secret...... What the hell is it?" Hugh frowned and whispered, "There should be a large number of people missing...... But even so, it shouldn't be something you didn't dare to talk about before."
"Your thoughts are close to the truth...... In fact, the Great Smog of Beckland was just a cover for George III's secret." Abner first affirmed Hugh's idea before announcing the answer:
"Everything George III did was to prepare for the rites of godhood, he ...... No, it's Him, who wants to be the 'Black Emperor!'"
"Becoming a god? The Black Emperor?!" Hugh's expression froze suddenly, although she guessed that the king's plan was not simple, she never thought that it was related to the true god!
Abner bowed his head slightly, and said solemnly, "Yes, the 'Black Emperor''s godhood ceremony is:"
"It is common knowledge to have your own kingdom and associate your name with the title of Emperor, and you need to establish a strict and complex set of rules that are contrary to the normal situation. Then, drive the people to secretly build nine pyramid-like mausoleums, and then enter one of them, and consume the potions of Sequence 0 in the corresponding rituals scattered throughout the different cities in which the vast majority of the people participate."
"That's why there was a massive disappearance of people and a resurgence of the slave trade, because George III not only needed enough men to build a mausoleum, but also made a false impression and confused the church."
"So, many years ago, the royal family of Rune obtained the crown of the Byron Empire, and some time ago publicly displayed the seal of Russell...... It's all about associating the name of the king with the title of emperor."
"So, the repeal of the Corn Act, the unified examination of government employees, the reorganization of the military relations, the suppression of the House of Lords and the aristocracy, the strengthening of the authority of the House of Commons, and even after the development of my film and the 'Academy Awards', it did not have as much resistance as on the side of Intis and Fursack, and it worked well with the improvised team of Häzel...... It's not just because of Her Highness Vera's stakes."
"Your father was executed when he discovered that a large number of people had been put into the mausoleum and died tragically, and he vaguely sensed George III's purpose and wanted to report it to the church."
Hearing this, Hugh's expression became unusually gloomy, she thought for a long time, bit her lip and said:
"I see!"
"But Abner...... If you already knew about it, why didn't you report it to the gods? Why do you have to risk yourself to get close to George III......
"Is it so that I can participate in the revenge myself? That's not necessary......
Crane, who was eavesdropping on the sidelines, also secretly said "Good question", although after becoming a "magician", he guessed the king's plan after Abner's prompt, but there were still many doubts that could not be solved.
Hugh asked one of them.
After all, with the relationship between Liu Bo and the goddess, he would not hide the latter at all...... And it's not so easy to hide a "secret mother", it's completely unnecessary.
Faced with Hugh's doubts, Abner shook his head and smiled, "I can know everything, how can those gods who have gone through several epochs not see this little trick of George III?"
"Then why ......" Hugh shut up in the middle of speaking, because the latter words were disrespectful to the gods.
Abner pondered for a moment, and felt that it was okay to talk about it, so he explained, "Quite simply, because the attitude of the gods and the church is not exactly the same."
"The church does not allow anyone to attack Sequence 0, but the Seven Gods are happy to see the birth of a sane 'Black Emperor', but they prefer to be the one they support, so they will not give their respective churches too specific revelations, just let them follow the normal process, and punish if they can find out, and develop by default if they can't."
"It is precisely this attitude that makes George III dare to take risks!"
"So, even if we do report it, it's useless, and we'll end up in the same fate as your father...... Because without conclusive evidence, it is impossible for the Church to move an angelic family with Sequence 1 and multiple '0' seals."
Hugh finally understood the crux of the matter, and she said with some frustration, "Isn't there any god who is against George III?"
"Of course there is......," said Abner with a smile as he met Hugh's surprised gaze, "Mr. 'Fool' voted against this matter!"
When Klein heard this, he almost couldn't control his expression even with the "Joker" ability.
Although Mr. Ta is telling the truth, this description is as if I was alone with the gods and vetoed it......
It's embarrassing!
Could it be that I use too much of my "clown" ability, so I always passively play "clown"?
Crane covered his face, then took a deep breath, deciding to ignore Tower's deliberate teasing and put on a gesture that nothing had happened.
At this time, "Tower" continued:
"In fact, George III's plan to become a god is only the beginning of another plan......
"I didn't dare tell you before, because I was afraid that the one who was really behind the scenes would find out."
"The one behind the scenes...... Who is it?" Hugh asked again.
"The Dusk Hermit'...... Adam!"
