Volume 3: Rise Chapter 305 What is the purpose of the nobles

"After the Flame Demon God established his own kingdom, he rewarded more than 140 warriors who had made great achievements, bestowed on them eternal power and titles, and enjoyed the respect and worship of all the people."

The old man exhaled lightly and rubbed the corners of his eyes, looking a little tired.

He looked at the three people in front of him who were listening carefully, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the children gathered on the side, and they were also listening very attentively.

Seeing this, a little smile appeared on the old man's face, and he suddenly felt that he was not so tired.

So after drinking some warm water, he continued: "But there are five warriors who are in the front of the battle ranks, but they have not been rewarded by the demon god, so they have created an organization by themselves called the Underground World. ”

"This organization specializes in doing dirty things, running all kinds of places that can't be seen, and relying on their own military exploits, no one dares to do anything excessive to them."

"As for the Demon God...... In the earlier wars, his divine body was already covered with scars, and after building the kingdom of God, he fell into an eternal slumber. ”

"It's just that no one knows whether the demon god is asleep or dead."

"There may be, but those who know will definitely not say it or record it."

After a pause, the old man suddenly looked up at the gray sky and muttered, "It's just that this sky has become exactly the same as when the gods were in war, except that there is no blood rain to water the earth......

Hearing this, Jiang Ningyuan showed a sudden expression, it seems that the powerful Flame Demon God should have fallen.

Because the sky at this time, just like the description of the divine war, after the fall of the gods, it was stained with a layer of haze, and it was difficult to disperse for a long time.

At the same time, if no one can be sure that the demon god has fallen, the belief in the demon god in this city will not be gradually forgotten.

Today, hundreds of years later, although people still remember the demon god, it is basically regarded as a legend, and no one will think that it is a real history.

Even many churches that believe in demon gods are now in ruins, and no one has repaired or worshiped them anymore.

Jiang Ningyuan felt that there was no nobleman's push in this

Helping the fire, he won't believe it if he really kills the fat man.

Suddenly, he felt as if he had grasped the key, and a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.

"Sky...... Was it 200 years ago that it was gray? ”

He jerked his head up and looked at the old man in front of him with burning eyes.

Hearing this, while the two people around him were stunned, the old man nodded slowly.

"Two hundred years ago, a haze suddenly covered the sky, and a few days later, the nobility announced that the annual tribute paid by the people must be increased."

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "According to the secrets recorded in the family, some people have already guessed that the demon god may have fallen at that time. ”

At the same time, the old man told them that two hundred years ago, there was still a force in this city that was above the nobility in terms of strength and status, and that was the cultists who believed in the demon god.

It's just that with the fall of the demon god, the power of these sects was infinitely weakened, and finally completely disappeared from history under the sword of the nobles.

Moreover, from the fall of the demon god rain, to the disappearance of these sects, and the promulgation of new regulations by the nobles, it was only five or six days from beginning to end.

It's as if ...... All this was planned in advance, and even rehearsed many times in secret!

All the nobles had united on that day, and they had worked together to clear the city of all threats, and any opposition, as quickly as possible.

"Every year after that, the nobles will increase people's offerings, although it is not much, but if it is accumulated, it will naturally not be a small amount."

The old man said sadly: "Every time, many people have come forward, but some of them have been killed by the nobles before they can speak. ”

Of course, for the first fifty years, this was mostly done in secret, and it was not until fifty years later, one hundred and fifty years ago, that the aristocracy completely tore away all pretenses.

Jiang Ningyuan lowered his head and groaned, he always felt that this point in time was too amazing, there was no need for the nobles to tear off their disguises, even if someone questioned it in person, even if it had already caused a stir in the city.

As long as the nobles still have power and strength, they can cover the sky with one hand and kill the people who stand up, under high pressure, it won't be long before gradually

There will be no one who will talk about it anymore.

After all, life still has to be lived, no matter how hard it is, no one will easily give up hope of living.

And this approach of the nobles is as if something has been achieved, or what is going on has reached a certain stage, and there is no need to continue to disguise.

"In fact, one hundred and fifty years ago, although the aristocracy oppressed people, not all of them were like now."

The old man suddenly sighed, and then said slowly: "During that time, there were angry people, because they had no power, so they donated money and goods, etc., and entrusted the killer guild of the organization of the underground world to assassinate the nobles. ”

One hundred and fifty years ago, for more than ten years, almost all the nobles were assassinated by the Killer Guild, and even the city lord was successfully assassinated.

It was the most dazzling era of the Killer Guild, and it was also the time when the power of the nobles was the weakest, and almost all the nobles were re-inherited by their young heirs, and even the city lord was no exception.

And from that time on, the vast majority of nobles became incapable and only greedy for pleasure, and this style has continued to the present.

Although with the passage of time, some noble heirs will not indulge in this style, but most of the nobles still take pleasure in it, and even oppress the people even more frantically.

Hearing this, Jiang Ningyuan glanced at the old man deeply, he didn't believe that some things he could figure out were something that he could understand, and the other party really didn't notice it at all.

Even he had a feeling at the moment that the other party was not only unaccustomed to the actions of the nobles, but betrayed his own family, perhaps there was another reason for it.

Yes, as the old man gradually explained everything that had happened in the past few hundred years, many things could be connected.

The most important thing now is to find out what happened after the fall of the demon god two hundred years ago, and why the nobles changed their usual style and began to oppress the people in a planned way, even at the expense of causing a sharp decline in the population.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ningyuan sighed in his heart, by now, the clues they had mastered were becoming more and more complicated, and they were about to become a ball of hair.
