Silent Crown Chapter 309: Past events
There is a smell of burning tobacco in the office, which seems to be the dust of a journey.
On the sofa next to Maxwell, there was a figure in a gray canvas robe. The ether of that person's body was as calm as dead water, as if all had been swallowed by the darkness in the robe.
It's like traveling thousands of miles, with an old pipe in his hand, his face hidden in the dark, blurry, and he is talking to Maxwell.
"After all, there is the love of the year. I should take this errand of the principal." He got up and said goodbye.
"Is this going away?" Maxwell stayed: "It's better to stay a little longer, and you will have time to leave tomorrow."
"The journey is far away, and it's a chore after all. The sooner I start, the better. Besides, my purpose of coming to the college has been achieved, and staying for a long time will be useless. I won't bother anymore."
"Then, I wish you a smooth journey."
Maxwell got up to see off the guests, and the traveler's kind of musicians made no sound as they marched, and left like drifting. When passing by Ye Qingxuan, Ye Qingxuan clearly felt a pair of pupils under the black mist sweep across his face, and the expressions in his eyes were meaningful.
"Who was that just now?"
After the person left, Ye Qingxuan asked casually
"Since he doesn't want to reveal his identity in front of you, of course this is a secret." Maxwell smiled secretly and entertained Ye Qingxuan to sit down:
"Whiskey? Or brandy? I also hide a bottle of the strongest kerosene in Xiacheng. Maybe you will like it."
"Is there no non-alcoholic thing to drink?"
Ye Qingxuan cast a glance at him, and found a can of black tea by himself. He boiled the water and soaked it by himself.
Maxwell cocked his legs to see him busy, he didn't care about it, he just smiled: "It's hard for you to wait so long, I thought you were impatient for a long time."
"Anyway, you are here. If you run away, you can't run to the temple."
Ye Qingxuan sat down opposite him, then filled the tea cup and pushed it in front of him.
"Huh?"
"This is for you."
Ye Qingxuan said lightly: "I have more problems. Be prepared for dry mouth, Mr. Principal."
"...If I knew it, it would be easier to talk about it differently."
Maxwell sighed, picked up the tea and swallowed it, and wiped the water from his beard. It’s like an old swordsman who drank his courageous wine and prepared to drew his sword and cut people,
"Okay, let's start, rest assured, I will know everything."
"So..."
Ye Qingxuan asked the first question: "White Crow. Who is it?"
"Do you know him?"
Maxwell was taken aback, then shook his head: "Unfortunately, I also want to know about this question.
Ten years ago, your father was condemned by the Holy City as a heresy and degenerated into a demon. The world was in an uproar for a while. But your father ran out of sight, and as a result, the Lancelot family was the first to be blamed.
I don’t know the specific process. The previous generation’s homeowner did not see any guests behind closed doors, due to pressure from all sides. You can only exile your mother and child. After that, he couldn't afford to be ill, and died two years later.
At the same time, Ye Lanzhou erased his existence with his scepter. Except for people with special identities, everyone in the world has forgotten his existence.
Unfortunately, the fault is irreparable.
Among them, the most active counterattack for the Lancelot family and the most effort was the person in your mouth called the white crow. "
"That's it."
Ye Qingxuan lowered his eyes: "So, when Ye Lanzhou came to the West. What exactly did he want to do? An oriental blood of heaven and man has a boundless future, and the scepter of the future, where is the school of humerus and the future of the family. Hope all.
Why did he leave his hometown and come here? "
"Twenty-seven years ago. In the East, Bai Heng, the head of the Bai family of vassals, succeeded to the throne and led the rebellion, ignoring the whole family in Chang'an, the capital of the country. The emperor was furious and killed his entire family.
Unfortunately, Chang'an was breached three days later, and his own Man Sect was almost killed by Bai Heng.
Bai Heng is the only one left in the Bai family. Under pressure from all parties, Bai Heng also left behind the emperor's youngest daughter, allowing her to inherit the nominal throne and change her country's name to "wu", becoming an unprecedented female emperor.
Since then, Bai Heng has been the regent above tens of thousands of people and one person, and the number one insurgent and thief in the world.
One year later, Ye clan claimed to be under the edict of the female emperor and raised troops in the name of ‘the side of the Qing prince’, and joined the Eighth Route Army to besiege Chang’an for five years. In the end, Ye's was sold by his ally, and the head of the Patriarch was chopped off, and he gave it to Bai Heng as a gift.
Since then, the Ye family has been divided up by the princes, and all the direct bloodlines have been imprisoned to the Qin Tianjian, and will not be able to take one step in the rest of their lives... and your father, Ye’s successor, Ye Lanzhou, was 20 years old. Two years old.
He was not tolerated by the East and had no reason to stay there, so he came to the West alone, wanting to start a new life.
To be honest, I really don't know what method he used to get through so many cages and shackles. Maybe for him, if he wants to go, no one can stop him, right? Anyway, it turned out that he came here, and as he wished, a new life began. "
Maxwell sighed: "Unfortunately, the new life here is not as simple as he thought."
"What happened later?"
"Later? That's when I met him for the first time."
Maxwell smiled: "He came to the Royal Academy to apply for an appointment and became a visiting professor. He was affirmed for his talent and ability. A year later, he became the youngest Vice-President in the history of the Royal Academy of Music.
The later things are as you know them. He knew your mother, they met, met, knew each other, and loved each other. Finally broke through the barriers and walked together.
Their master of marriage is me. This is my most honored thing. Unfortunately, I often wondered if I objected to this marriage at the time, would all the rest of it not happen. "
Ye Qingxuan was silent for a long time, and asked: "What happened next? What happened?"
"Lancelot is almost one in the royal family. In order to marry your mother, Ye Lanzhou promised many conditions, one of which was to serve for Angru for ten years. He agreed and was awarded in the Royal Academy In the next year, he represented the Royal Academy and joined a research project in the Holy City."
"Holy City?"
Ye Qingxuan was silent: "The religious group or the musicians' association?"
"All, there are even more... Silent Organizations are also involved."
Maxwell said lightly: "This is one of the results of the Third Amendment Act."
The Third Amendment Act.
This is a secret agreement agreed upon by the nations and the Order two hundred years ago.
According to the agreement, the nations respect each generation of the Red King—that is, the Pope—as the only substitute for God in the world. The cause and effect of his words and deeds are infallible, maintaining the legitimacy and unquestionable sacred status of the religious group.
As a price, all the political attributes of the religious group were stripped away, and the church has been separated since then. All priests are not allowed to join the army, are not allowed to participate in politics, must not interfere with the laws of various countries, or even accept worship from believers. All the necessary funds are provided by various countries. Guided by the Pope, the leaders formed the Holy City Council, which established the Holy City as the core of the world.
The first thing the Holy City Council did was the timely establishment of the Musician Association. Put all the musicians under it.
The ‘Inquisition’, which had developed into a deformed monster at the time, was abolished, and the musicians were dismissed from their membership, and they were incorporated into the ‘Silent Organization’, the ** organization under the Musicians’ Association, and became law-making musicians.
The priests who are not musicians returned to the sect and formed the ‘Department of Faith’ which has the right to interpret the scriptures and the final interpretation.
From then on, God belongs to God, and man belongs to man.
The lofty spirit is under the guidance of the pope. The living beings in the world obey the rule of the kings. Whether it is'metaphysical' or'metaphysical', everything has its place.
The new order was born.
And that secret research organization that did not appear in any existing organization was established at that time. The research that Ye Lanzhou participated in has started eighty years ago.
The Holy City Council has brought together the power of scholars and alchemists from all over the world, secretly drawing dozens of musicians who have made achievements in various research fields into it. Sixteen different schools of thought were dispatched, and an unprecedented study was started...
"——What is a natural disaster?"
Maxwell’s voice was like a stone rubbing, and hot sparks shot out: "The purpose of that research is to figure out what the nature of natural disasters is.
For this reason, the secret forces of the world united and secretly captured a natural disaster. All the preparations, processes, and actions of the entire plan have been sealed, except for the heads of nations and the pope, no one knows what happened. "
"Scourge?"
Ye Qingxuan was stunned: "Which natural disaster?"
"Among all natural disasters, the most distinctive ones are the three sages, the three pillars of god, the four living creatures and the eight phenomena."
Maxwell smoked a cigarette: "The whereabouts of the three wise men are hidden. There is no way to prove their existence. The Three Pillars of God is too large, too far away from human beings, and incomprehensible. Eight phenomena...that are just pure phenomena. There is even no research value. Therefore, the most suitable target is undoubtedly one of the four living creatures."
"Hundred-armed giant?"
In an instant, Ye Qingxuan suddenly realized.
Hundred-armed Giant, Leviathan, Dark Earth Mother, Shadow Sunflower.
Among the four living creatures, the Dark Earth Mother does not have a definite form and cannot be observed. Leviathan, the lord of the deep sea, has long since died, and no one can find it until he is resurrected. Shadow Kwai looks the easiest ~ IndoMTL.com ~ but the nature is also elusive.
It grows in every black zone in the world, where the ether is the most chaotic. The body is between the virtual and the real, like an unrealistic bubble, and it will shatter with a touch. Let alone capture, just observation will cause it to dissipate.
Therefore, the most suitable target is undoubtedly the only giant with a hundred arms left.
"But... the holy city can actually capture a giant with a hundred arms?"
"Well, the price is heavy."
Maxwell said softly: "As far as I know, since 80 years, the eleven saints who survived have lost four of them, and the nine maidens of the East have lost two. The rest of the participants were all seriously injured. The yellow king of the previous generation fell because of this...
None of this is the worst.
The worst part is that we succeeded. "
