Chapter 61: The Law of Bestiality
After confirming that there was no malice, Romero hugged each other again, and then spat and spout.
"Well, I heard something bad about you, the General Bureau of Investigation said that you were infected by evil forces in the course of your mission, and after losing your mind, you killed your companions, and returned to the Barbis City Brigade with the intention of assassinating the head of the General Bureau, and were finally executed and buried in the mass grave of the condemned prisoner. β
The director of the General Administration not only killed himself, but also ruined his reputation.
Sonia must have been very sad when she heard this!
Tang Ning felt a pain in his heart, and told about what happened to him and the reason for his resurrection.
"Escaped death, lucky young man. β
Hearing what happened to the young man, Romero's expression was full of sympathy and pity.
After telling the story, Downing continued to inquire.
"What happened to me after I died and why did it become the way it is. β
Romero let out a wry smile and sat down on a table near the bookshelf, recounting what had happened after that.
"Because of the economic depression, the king issued a proclamation saying that he would introduce a series of measures to try to save the bad economy, including the hope that the church would come forward to save the church's expenses, and it was best to abolish the holy prison. β
"You know that the church at that time was criticized for some supernatural events that happened at that time, so the church finally dismantled the holy prison and released the supernatural power owners in the holy prison under the pressure of the people's huge outcry. β
In the context of the economic depression, people's anger is high, and the rising anger needs a vent point to release the anger, otherwise it will lead to more serious problems, and there are many examples of this in the era in which we lived.
The approach of the rulers of that era was to find ways to divert the contradictions, so that the people's attention could be focused on other things to vent, and it was better to divert the anger caused by internal contradictions to external contradictions.
If you think about it carefully, Alex's fake case at the beginning, everything was just an illusion. , and finally blamed the church people,
Even the plague incident that occurred later, the king also issued a notice, saying that the church was unwilling to release the people of the Holy Prison to solve the supernatural power incident, which made the case more difficult and made the people dissatisfied with the church.
In addition, Romero said that the king announced a series of measures to save the economy, including the Church's savings and the abolition of the Holy Prison, which means that the economic depression is inseparable from the Church.
Eventually, the Church of Light became the target of public criticism.
In the light of this information, it now appears that the cases were not coincidental at that time, but merely a ploy by the king to divert the contradictions to the church, which had been premeditated.
For a while, Tang Ning's thinking suddenly became clear!
Alex was willing to fake his death because of the king's orders, so he wrote a warning letter to himself about the future of the entire kingdom, and the only person who could control the future of the entire kingdom was the king.
As for letting Cross lead himself to investigate the truth at the beginning, it was just to show the people the attitude of the Investigation Bureau to solve the case, to make a show, and to paralyze the people's consciousness.
It's just that they didn't expect that they and Cross would get closer and closer to the truth in the process of investigation, and in the end, the king had no choice but to let Cross end his life, and then transfer himself to the General Directorate, so that they could solve themselves.
In fact, Tang Ning was annoyed, what he should have thought of at that time was probably because he was bent on finding a way to go back at that time and ignored this already clear information.
Now it seems that the king's hands above are productive, and the church has compromised under great pressure.
After clearing his head, he nodded and motioned for Romero to continue.
"This is a very festive event for magicians, when we, the possessors of supernatural powers, celebrated that the Church's checks on supernatural powers would gradually disintegrate, and that a new era of magic would dawn, and that we would once again be at the center of history. β
Romero looked excited.
When Downing heard this, he suddenly understood why Elon Musk, who was hanged in a hotel, was smiling.
He did hang himself, and it must have been the king who described to him that the possessors of the supernatural powers in the holy prison under these plans would be released.
As Romero said, freeing the people of the Holy Prison is a universal celebration for all magicians who are subject to the Church, and Elon Musk is willing to sacrifice himself for the wizarding world to return to the center of the world stage, so he dies willingly and with a smile on his face.
After a long silence, Romero's mood became depressed.
"We were carried away by the joy that it was possible for magic to return to the center of the world stage, but we did not think that the magicians who had been imprisoned in the Holy Prison for hundreds of years were no longer the same as they used to be, and that the seeds of hatred that could not be dissolved had been planted in their hearts. β
"When they were released, Hemsworth of the School of Astrologers gathered them together to take revenge on these worlds, and these hateful and powerful magicians summoned the forces of the Third System, which were destroyed by the forces of the Third System. β
"The power of the Third System?" Downing wondered.
Romero explained with a wry smile.
"I almost forgot that you don't know the third power system, the so-called third power system is different from the Church of Light's divine magic system and other magic systems that this world had before, the magic power system from the outer space, this is our collective name for this power system that does not belong to this world. β
"This third power system can greatly improve the original magical power system of our world, but the appearance of those who choose to be loyal to the third power system will be changed and become terrifying monsters, and only these elders will remain sane after becoming monsters, ordinary people become monsters like beasts and only know how to kill, but those guys who are full of revenge will not care about these, they just want to destroy this world. β
Knowing the third power system, Tang Ning frowned and asked.
"And how many normal people are there, and what about the king and the church?"
Romero shrugged in pain.
"Some were killed by monsters, some were hiding anywhere they could, such as us, hiding in the dark market, which was already overcrowded, but resources were scarce, and people were starving to death every day, and some people chose to go out and become monsters in order to solve their food and clothing, and as for the king, he took his army and most of the useful people into the underground civilized world to fight against monsters, and the church, I heard that the church started a holy war in the holy area to protect the believers of the church, there is plenty of food and water, you know that the believers do not include us heretics with magicγ β
"Underground civilization?" Tangning heard a new word again.
Romero explained.
"The underground civilization world is a special species, they are low, dark yellow skin, they can live without the sun, they have created their own civilization and established cities underground, few people know about their existence before the end of the world, but some adventurers have been recorded in some travelogues after contact, before that I thought it was just those adventurers made up. β
Downing nodded to continue.
Romero continued.
"After hearing about the situation in the Sanctuary and the underground civilized world, some ordinary people hiding in the dark market traveled long distances to the Sanctuary and the underground civilized world, hoping to be blessed, but after arriving in those places, only the young and young people and fertile girls were left behind, and the rest were rejected, and most of them died on the way back, which is the story of very few lucky people who returned. β
