Chapter 182: The Distorted Truth

(I was overtaken!) But Huang Tuo won't give up! Readers, vote for you! Huang Tease will fight until the last moment! Codeword, codeword! Update Update! Ask for a ticket, ask for a ticket! )

As he said this, the city lord suddenly stopped and looked at the two Wright.

"I would venture to ask, how much do you know about this fishing village of Highgroh?"

Wright and Yunica glanced at each other, and briefly said what they knew.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the city lord suddenly laughed.

"This information is from the fishermen who escaped from Highgro, right?"

"Indeed, the narrator is one of the fishermen."

Wright's eyes narrowed slightly: "What, is there any problem?" ”

"They say they're fishing villages blessed by the sea? Hahahaha, how ridiculous! ”

Wright was a little puzzled: "Sea Clan, that's what I said. ”

"Wrong, wrong, wrong!"

The city lord propped his hands on the desk: "Highgro, it's a captive fishing village!" The people who live there are not at all blessed by the sea, but exiled by the sea.

Because the ancestors of this group of people were pirates who ran rampant on the sea, burning and looting.

What they have done is so cruel that even the vast and majestic sea cannot tolerate the crimes they have committed.

The sea imprisoned them in one place and did not allow them to communicate with the outside world.

There, it's Highgro! In the old saying, it means cage.

And the so-called village chief there is actually a warden, and he is the warden of that prison. He exists to spy on these prisoners.

He is the one who was blessed by the god of the sea. ”

Yunica was incredulous, she had just been one of the villagers of Hagro Blessed by the Sea, and suddenly became the blood of the pirates.

As if to see Yunica's thoughts, the city lord suddenly pointed at her: "You, you're not. ”

"Me? What am I not? ”

"You're not the descendants of those vicious pirates, you're from the village chief's lineage."

"You, how do you know?"

The city lord laughed strangely: "Because the first person to leave the fishing village was the son of the old village chief, that is, your father.

Only when this line is gone, will the curse of the sea on the village be leaked.

Since then, one by one, the prisoners have left the cage of the sea.

And the sea, perceiving all this, angrily wants to swallow up the entire fishing village.

At that time, the village chief, that is, your grandfather, had good intentions and did not want the rest of the villagers to perish with him, so he drove everyone out.

As the last generation of village keepers, he lived and died with the village.

Do the guys at those fishing ports say that they are not good at fishing?

In fact, they have always been cursed by the sea.

It's just that before, they served their sentences honestly, and obeyed the discipline and arrangements of the village chief, that is, the warden.

That's why they can catch delicious fish.

That's the gift of the sea to the village chief, and they just drink soup.

Now that he has come to Harbour City, he has no protection from the village chief, so he naturally returns to the state of being cursed by the sea.

If it weren't for the fact that I often helped them in the name of Harbour City, these guys would have starved to death. ”

Wright fell into deep thought, and he suddenly understood what the Devil of Lies had said about this harbor city.

Although the area is large, although the number of people is large, the time of the lie is too short.

On the other hand, the fishing village of Highgro, although small in size and small in numbers, has been brewing for too long.

It's like an old wine, and the passage of time makes the wine called a lie more mellow and intoxicating.

Here, Harbour City, is the hunting ground where the devil of lies pays his heart and soul.

But the small fishing village was a treasure he had discovered, more precious than the huge harbor city.

"It seems that the fog came from a small fishing village."

Wright shook his legs and sorted out his thoughts: "What a long old lie, from a prisoner in captivity, to a believer blessed by the sea.

Lies have replaced the real ......

No wonder, the Devil of Lies would choose that place as his lair. ”

Yunica gradually recovered from her own experience, she had just learned a few days ago that her mother and grandmother were so-called witches.

Now it's good, my father and grandfather turned out to be the guardians of the village blessed by the sea.

But after listening to the words of the city lord, Yunica was still a little skeptical.

"Listen to what you just said, the head of the fishing village should know the truth. Why, why didn't they say it, why didn't they correct that lie? ”

The lord didn't speak, but Wright did.

"White lies."

Wright looked at Unica: "Perhaps, in a certain generation of village guards, they feel that they are living in this isolated village as a prison warden and a prisoner.

It's better to live in the relationship between the village chief and the villagers, and be happier.

Therefore, the people who told this lie were not the villagers, but the village guards who were chosen by the sea.

Moreover, it is an enduring lie that has been passed down from generation to generation.

Well-intentioned ...... Falsehood. ”

Yunica was thoughtful and didn't speak again.

Wright looked at the city lord: "Don't avoid the important and take it lightly, since the matter of the fishing village has been explained clearly." So, what about what you do with those magicians? ”

"I know what Your Highness wants to ask. Yes, those magicians...... Originated from the Tower of Truth. ”

Feeling the rich murderous aura rising from Wright's body, the city lord hurriedly added.

But they are not remnants of the truth. Or rather, not with the lunatics who attacked the Holy Capital! ”

Wright raised his eyebrows, and his murderous aura temporarily restrained: "Oh? Why do you say that? ”

The city lord let out a sigh of relief, pulled out a parchment scroll from the book beside him, and carefully handed it to Wright.

Wright took it and glanced at it, frowning slightly.

"Workshop of Truth?"

"Yes, this organization originated from the Tower of Truth. They believe in the Lord of Truth as much as the Tower of Truth, but they do not identify with the idea of the Tower of Truth and regard it as heresy and even mortal enemies. ”

Wright didn't speak, just looked at the Workshop of Truth icon.

It was very similar to the logo of the Tower of Truth, a circular circle with a hole in the door of truth at the top.

The difference is that the Tower of Truth is marked by a tall tower sitting in the center of the sign, and the spire has touched the Gate of Truth.

The implication is that the scholars of the Tower of Truth finally entered the door of truth that they had always dreamed of.

But the diagram of the Workshop of Truth, the tall tower of the mage, has become a tall and wide factory.

"It's kind of interesting."

Seeing this, the city lord hurriedly continued: "The people of the Truth Workshop claim to be the Workshop Magicians, and the members of the Tower of Truth are called Tower Magicians.

The Mage of the Tower always likes to build his Mage Tower in a hidden place away from the people, and basically does not associate with ordinary people.

But the Workshop Wizards are committed to settling in the city, actively engaging with the citizens, interacting with the city, and eventually becoming a part of the city, interdependent! ”

Wright raised his eyelids: "Now, the entire First Empire is full of these things, right?" ”

"Yes...... That is true. With the help of the Workshop Magicians, the entire empire flourished. The people are richer, the country is stronger! ”

Wright chuckled and glanced at the other.

"My great lord, have you been to their workshop?"

The city lord suddenly froze in place, speechless for a moment.

"Stupid, stupid. In addition to the alchemy workshop on the surface, they also have an underground workshop, you know? ”
