Lord of the Witches

Condor's new calendar, October 13th, early in the morning.

The first floor of the book tower is located in the center, and the area with the most suitable light for reading is constant. Tang Qi is completely immersed in the books in front of him.

On his right hand side is the coffee delivered by the goblin Wilners who has already worked as a "library tower administrator". It is completely cold, and on the left hand side are old books that have been read.

A book that is slowly turning the pages is called "The Black Hand in the Fog of History".

Compared with other more rigorous, even academic books, this book is more like a fantasy novel, most of which has no basis, and is a "polymath" named David Fincher. "Written by.

According to the remarks added by the witches on the title page, this is a very special polymath. Although he has also studied other professions, they are all ordinary human professions such as winemaker, violinist, and painter, and do not have extraordinary abilities. combat power.

But in the world of scholars on the mysterious side, he is the last existence recognized as a "great polymath".

To obtain this title, the difficulty is probably equivalent to achieving a demigod.

David Fincher was active at the end of the old calendar, when the spiritual tide was about to fade. One day he had a whim, retreated for several years, and finally wrote a book that made the mysterious side dumbfounded. In his book, History Behind many major events, black hands, large and small, have emerged.

There are some horrific and unbelievable speculations among them. Due to excessive horror and fading spiritual tide, people think that David Fincher is crazy. Impatient "publishers" destroyed.

But the few remaining copies were still scrambled by some extraordinary people, and then the mysterious side was hit hard, and those remaining copies disappeared.

The one in the collection of the witches is relatively complete, and it was bought directly by Esmeralda's grandmother from the descendants of David Fincher.

Tang Qi read it with gusto for a book that completely followed the "conspiracy theory".

David Finch believes that many secretive organizations hide in the dark and promote the occurrence of major events. There are black hands behind some wars that seem to be "coincidences" or events that are simply natural disasters.

In addition to the notorious mysterious organization "Rotten Head", Tang Qi also saw other names, and the ones with the highest appearance rate include "Terror Eater", "Mysterious Freak Show", "Parliament of Eternal Life"... and two familiar names.

World tree!

Ancient Mystery Vault!

That's right, the two permanently neutral and terrifying shelters were identified by David Fincher as the masterminds behind many horrific incidents.

Most of the book was sprayed because of this inference.

Because after the mysterious side was hit hard, the two organizations directly entered the "ultimate seal" mode in order to prevent the ancient containment from changing, and the peripheral personnel dispersed a large amount of property accumulated in the organization, saving countless civilians.

"The civil war that swept across the Federation was actually a decision made by a group of conspirators in order to legally harvest the fruits of victory from the heroes. They are likely to be members of the Council of Eternal Life. In order to achieve their goals, they even dared to attack the Twelve Saints... …their action was ultimately successful, but it also angered heroes, including Saint Martin Sims the Confessor, and in the final battle the Council of Eternals was decimated."

Tang Qi's gaze completely stopped on the page in front of him.

After reading out an unbelievable sentence, a strange look appeared on Tang Qi's face.

Although conspiracy theories and speculations about the Federal Civil War are very popular, like David Finch, he can directly confirm that the leaders of the Northern Coalition Army are actually behind the scenes, members of a mysterious organization called "Eternal Life Council" People, very few.

"What a bold and crazy senior."

Tang Qi recalled the many speculations he had seen, and couldn't help sighing.

Just when he was going to continue to turn the pages and appreciate the works of his predecessors.

Hearing obvious footsteps suddenly, Tang Qi turned his head and saw several unexpected "visitors", a tired-looking Jason, Jennifer, old Coulson, and a man who was concerned about checking whether Jason was injured. Crias, who walked in the front, was Raphael, an extraordinary doctor who was thinner and thinner than Tang Qi and wore glasses.

Rafael was about to speak, when his eyes accidentally saw the book in Tang Qi's hand, first a strange look flashed, and then he remembered Tang Qi's "erudite" profession, and a look of understanding appeared on his face.

"It's on every polymath's must-read list, and David Fincher is a crazy predecessor."

Raphael spit out an evaluation similar to Tang Qi.

Then he sat down directly in front of Tang Qi, and the others also found a seat to sit down.

Tang Qi's eyes swept over several people, one after another was slowly disappearing, but fragments of information that could still be captured emerged, indicating that they had experienced a fierce battle not long ago.

Jennifer and Coulson Sr., as "support occupations", should only be affected during the rescue.

As for Jason, his clothes were full of damage, some corroded wounds could be seen faintly, and there were also strange, light red vertical lines.

No need to guess, they must have just escaped from the battlefield. Tang Qi didn't close the book, and asked a little strangely: "The war is over, why don't you go back to repair, why come to me?"

It is not difficult to guess the end of the war. Although there are traces of battle on the body of Jason and the others, and their expressions are exhausted, they are all relaxed. If the war is still going on, they should be more nervous.

Jensen was dealing with Crias's anger, because the incident happened suddenly, Crias had no time to follow, and did not receive the news until Jensen withdrew from the battlefield. It is normal to lose his temper at this time.

Hearing Tang Qi's words, Jason immediately smiled wryly and said: "The corpses of those monsters are everywhere in the Castle Bureau, they are smelly and disgusting, anyway, we have nothing to do with you in the future, why don't you come to your place to have a rest and eat delicious food?" Yes, by the way, see if there is anything that needs help, I am very good at prom matters."

Without correcting the "prom" in Jansen's mouth, Tang Qi looked at Raphael again and asked, "What's the result?"

Jason and the others were more or less injured, but Rafael was still in high spirits, and calmly informed the outcome of this sudden and soon-to-be ended war.

"The entrance to the foreign land leads to a polluted secret realm, where a race called 'Pablo Beholder' lives. They are extremely polluting. And blocking the entrance at the first time, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Our response force and the knights of the church arrived at the scene ten minutes later, successfully closed the entrance to the foreign land, and killed all the invading Pablo beholders... In addition to the deaths of dozens of agents and knights, the church's Oresim Knight Commander fell due to serious injuries."

The war process that should have been ups and downs spit out from Rafael's mouth. While it was dull, it also carried a trace of cold terror.

Lost a knight commander?

Although Tang Qi had never met the knight leader of the church called "Oresme", he had heard of his name. He was a person who could compete for the top ten list of the most powerful supernatural beings in Mihuang City. Said to be Sith's friend.

The demon tide was eliminated, and a powerful knight died because of it, but Tang Qi still had a weird feeling that this war was a bit... anticlimactic.

"This incident is very strange. With the style of the Rotten Head, if we really want to plan something, it shouldn't be solved by us so easily."

Tang Qi hadn't spoken out the guess in his heart, but Raphael spoke first.

He looked at the "black hand in the fog of history" in Tang Qi's hands, and seemed not worried that Tang Qi would not be able to keep up with his rhythm.

In Tang Qi's mind, he quickly recalled the things that "Rotten Head" did, compared them with the invasion war that just ended, nodded in agreement, and said: "Although there are many possibilities, the two biggest ones are now The active 'Rotten Head' is not the one that ravaged the Old and New Worlds during the Dark Ages, but just a counterfeiter, or they have dangerous plans, and what happened last night was just an introduction?"

Raphael frowned, as if he was searching for clues in his memory, but a secret organization that hadn't even shown up its envoys naturally wouldn't leave much behind that could be used for reasoning.

After a while, Raphael hesitated and said: "Regardless of the authenticity of this organization, their purpose should not have been achieved, perhaps they did not expect that Oresim Knight Commander would personally lead the team, nor did they expect that this adult would carry it with him. The sword of St. Dorsey is one of the high-level wonders in the Mihuang Church, and it was once one of the twelve saints, the sword of the holy knight Dorsey."

After finishing speaking, Raphael seemed to think of something, and said to himself: "The Rotten Head, the Mysterious Freak Show, the Oneiroi Palace... These ancient and terrifying organizations have emerged all over the world, not just the Federation. , the entire Blue Star is becoming dangerous."

"Compared to the difficult maintenance of other regions and countries, the Federation can still maintain superficial tranquility, but I'm afraid it won't be too long. The veil that blinds the eyes of the world will be lifted sooner or later."

After Raphael finished speaking, he didn't say any more, but stretched out his hand to a book that Tang Qi had finished reading. Before touching it, he asked Tang Qi for approval with his eyes.

Tang Qi didn't continue reading and fell silent.

Raphael didn't say it clearly, but Tang Qi instantly understood what he meant.

This is a "reminder" that as a senior official in an official institution, Rafael's sense of smell is trustworthy.

He is reminding Tang Qi that the world is undergoing earth-shaking changes and has become extremely dangerous. Tang Qi should not overprotect the students of the Merada Special Education School. Children of the Power of God, take part in the battle.

After a few breaths of silence, Tang Qi sighed softly, feeling the incomparably real crisis omen that emerged in his mind, and thought in his heart: "Speed ​​up, whether it's me or the students."
