Ember Gun

  Chapter 490 New Reincarnation

  Country builders, a familiar and unfamiliar vocabulary, Lorenzo once knew this in Oscar's mouth, and the core controller of Northdro is the existence of these country builders.

  "Do you mean...Are you a member of the country builder?"

   Lorenzo asked in disbelief, he never thought that the queen would be one of them, and what was even more unexpected was about Oscar Wilde. Obviously that **** had concealed a lot of things from Lorenzo.

It can be imagined that Oscar is just a third-rate writer who doesn’t sell well. He is a weird man with neuropathy. It is difficult for Lorenzo to associate such a person with some earth-shattering conspiracy, and in such a long time, Oscar has never revealed anything unusual.

   "What is the builder of the country?"

   asked Arthur, he is still not very clear about these.

  "A group, but the more detailed information should start from the original alchemy group.

In the history of alchemy, the original alchemy group was the Rosicrucian. They gradually expanded and became a powerful Golden Dawn. However, with the occurrence of unknown events, the Golden Dawn split, and some people stayed at the end of the world and built The library preserves the knowledge that was once taboo, and you should know these people now that they are the keepers of the secret. "

  The queen slowly recounted the past, while Lorenzo and Arthur listened attentively. The history that has not been recorded in this book only depends on the memory to pass on from generation to generation.

Lorenzo has asked more than once. If humans and demons have killed endless time, then before there is a definite historical record, in that unknown era, what kind of posture did humans fight against demons? ?

   is like the age hypothesis put forward by Lorenzo Medici.

There is no way to determine whether there is a retrospective era. Lorenzo Medici once suspected that the so-called demons appeared in this era, and then the dark era when humans were slaughtered by demons, and then the silver era. In this era, the first The saints went to the north, obtained "Revelation" and "Gospel", founded the Gospel Church and established the Demon Hunting Order.

  This is the era in which humans can fight against demons, and it is also the era in which Lorenzo is now. The rest is the era that only exists in the future, the golden age of eradicating demons.

   "Mr. Holmes, you seem to have thought of something. Would you like to talk about it? We have plenty of time today."

  The queen looked at Lorenzo with a smile.

  Lorenzo did not hesitate to directly say what he was thinking.

  "I was thinking about the division of times. In fact, after learning about the existence of the Secret Keeper and the hidden knowledge, I wondered whether the so-called "Revelation" and "Gospel" are related to the Secret Keeper."

  Although there is no clear evidence, Lorenzo vaguely feels that his conjecture is correct, and all the forked roads eventually lead to one direction, converging into a bunch.

"Whether the knowledge acquired by the first saints came from the hands of the Secret Keepers? If this hypothesis is true, then the age of the Secret Keepers can probably be determined to be before the Silver Age. Then before the Secret Keepers, they are still At the time of the Golden Dawn and the more distant Rosicrucian, were they in that more distant era...the era of retrospective that is uncertain whether it exists?"

  Facing Lorenzo's words, the queen smiled and shook her head.

  "Sorry, I don’t know, the Victoria’s house has been trapped here for hundreds of years, and the farthest distance I have traveled is the port of Rendona. As the queen of this country, I have never personally traveled throughout this country.

  As for what you said, the only thing I know is the family handed down. "

  "Ingleweg 932 year."

  At this moment, Arthur spoke suddenly, and after hearing Lorenzo's words, he also seemed a little confused. Under this huge time scale, mortals appeared fragile.

"On this land of Inervig, only 932 years have passed since there was a historical record. This is only ours. Other countries older than us have even longer History, and it all started with the appearance of the Demon Hunter, which is the division of the Silver Age."

  Arthur looked at Lorenzo.

  "Do you know the history of the Gospel Church? From the moment the Demon Hunter was born."

"There is no specific time, but it's about a thousand years? It's about the same as the history of Inervig," Lorenzo knew what Arthur wanted to say. "That means the Silver Age has just begun for about a thousand years? Maybe? There will be some errors, maybe hundreds of years..."

  In the early days of the appearance of the Demon Hunter, it was also the most intense period of war between humans and demons in the record. The war has blurred time, and most of the history has disappeared in the fire.

   "Then you, the group that has existed since a more distant age, the builders of the country may be able to complement the history before the Silver Age."

  Lorenzo looked at the queen again, and the queen was still smiling, and then shook his head.

"Feel sorry."

  She said sorry again.

   "You may be disappointed... At least the Victorian family is not clear about the history before the Silver Age. Even if they knew it, most of them have been forgotten in the years. After all, human beings are very fragile."

  The queen recounted the past of Victoria's house.

"Remember what I told you before? Even if the Victoria family was once a member of the alchemy group, they may enjoy endless glory, but under the erosion of the years, no matter how prosperous the honor will be, let alone knowledge is cursed. of.

In short, a lot of things have happened in this long period of time, the expansion of monsters has been controlled, and this threat has been weakened, people began to doubt the so-called alchemy, abandoned it, and even said that the original history has been forgotten... "

  Because of the appearance of the hunting sect, humans have forgotten the horror of demons. Sometimes the queen does not know whether this is right or wrong, she just feels sad about it.

   "Nothing is long-lasting, time-honored knowledge, lost technology, even buildings will collapse, the group will be dissolved, even the hunting sect will eventually fall into the ashes, right?"

  Victoria’s records about the past are very few, and the specific circumstances have been unable to be found out. No one knows whether it is because of external influence or... self-castration.

   "Well, you continue."

   Lorenzo was disappointed. He thought he would complete history, even if he could get some clues.

  "I don’t know the exact time when the country builders appeared, but what is known is that there have been demons since then, and the responsibility of the country builder is to lead human beings to live under the shadow of the demons by virtue of knowledge.

  We reached a consensus and regarded ourselves as the builders of the country. Some people became merchants, some became generals, and some became kings...Of course, there were some more down-and-outs who became writers.

Although most of the knowledge is lost or dated due to various reasons, we are still the group of people who understand the nature of the world best, and knowledge is cursed. We know this, but we can’t talk about it, we can only enjoy it. This secret, experience the fear it brings. "

  The queen lowered her head, and the dark red blood vessels under the white and transparent skin were clearly visible, and a strange curse was flowing in it.

  People have paid enough for the current world.

   "Our purpose is for the survival of all mankind, and with our own strength, to secretly influence the direction of this world, let it proceed in a predetermined orbit, rather than make mankind go to destruction."

  The queen described the purpose of the builders.

"What we hide is very deep. Only the Demon Hunting Order understands our existence. We have cooperated several times in history. Unlike them who have been fighting against demons, we only act when necessary. Most of the time. In time, we have kept silent and let the world develop freely."

  It feels so good to tell the secret. The queen has enjoyed this fear alone for too long, and now she can finally share it with others and bear it with her.

   "Like this time? A war sweeping the world... to save the world?"

  Lorenzo thought these things were absurd, extremely absurd.

  "Precisely speaking, it is for the survival of mankind," the queen said deeply, "this world does not need our salvation. The only thing that needs to be saved is our human beings."

   "Does it seem incredible? Mr. Holmes?"

  Speaking of this, the queen smiled bitterly, her eyes full of loneliness.

"I took over the mission...no, when I realized that I needed to do these things, my mood was similar to yours, I felt that the whole world was crazy, and then I complained, why did I do this? It is clear that the world is running smoothly. After so long, why are you facing such a thing when you come to me.

  I have already endured the King’s Curse. Why do I have to bear it? I have regretted it countless times, regretting why I was born in the world, and even said that I thought about suicide. "

  These words should have been roared out, but the queen’s voice had no anger at all. In the face of this cruel reality, she had already surrendered and became a slave to fate.

"Unfortunately, I can’t find other answers, and I don’t have the ability to find other answers. I don’t even have the ability to get out of this platinum palace. Someone must do these things. If I don’t do it, there will be There is another person who bears this dark sin...

  War, this is the only answer. "

  In the dark world, here is the only light. Lorenzo felt that the light had cooled down, and he was losing heat. It was like a cold ice cellar.

  "So, why start a war? Why do you think that war is the only way out? What do you builders know?"

  Lorenzo asked one after another, he couldn't understand these things, why must this be the case?

  "The reason is very complicated, part is the advancing of the times, part is our human beings... Actually I don't know the specific situation, but this is like a terrible prediction.

  A prophecy circulated among the builders of the country, a prophecy that is believed to be unsuspecting, it predicts the end of mankind, and it also gives the only way to avoid it. "

  The queen looked at Lorenzo and asked.

"If it is you, Lorenzo Holmes, if the prophecy tells you that you must kill a part of humanity in exchange for the survival of another part of humanity, otherwise all humanity will die, and you will choose to let humanity go. Death, or kill those people?"

  Lorenzo's pupils tightened, without the slightest fluctuation.

  "I was faced with such a choice. You can understand it. The rogue in this world gives you questions and answers. All you can do is believe or give up."

  Everyone is a slave of destiny. The world throws out questions and answers. No one tells them the true or false and right or wrong of all this. All he can do is execute the answers like a slave.

  The saddest convenience is here. The queen knows that this is so absurd and ignorant, but she can only believe it and execute it, because this is the only answer.

   "I also know the absurdity of war, but what I am more afraid of is the fulfillment of the prophecy. If I really abandon the war and let things develop...I am afraid of the dark future."

"Do not!"

  Lorenzo interrupted her severely, his pupils looking straight at the queen, full of anger.

   "This is not right! How could you believe such a thing, this is just a **** prophecy! Even if it's just a hypothetical prophecy, it can't be like this!"

  Lorenzo scolded the queen, but something in his heart was touched.

He thought of Lawrence and Lawrence’s prophecy. That guy was also a slave to fate. He paid everything for his prophecy. Lorenzo wanted to denounce the Queen’s actions, but the doomsday he saw in Lawrence [Gap] But it keeps flashing in front of my eyes.

  Lorenzo stopped, he stopped talking, but raised his hand and slowly covered his face.

  What the queen said is right, the country builders are right, terrible darkness is coming...but why is it so? It shouldn't be! This world shouldn't be like this!

  In this distorted crazy world, Lorenzo wanted to correct it, but suddenly realized that he didn’t know how to do it. War was the only answer.

  "These are the documents of the country builders. The reason why I asked you to wait for me for a few days is for these documents. They were originally stored in an underground facility. It stands to reason that they will always be sealed."

   Arthur took the document. Although it was carefully protected, the erosion of the years was still reflected in the paper. He opened it carefully and placed it between him and Lorenzo.

  "As you can see, the'prophecy' may be absurd, but in fact, there have been more than one'wars' born as a result."

  Lorenzo looked at the narrative on the document in shock, and all the disasters in human history appeared in it.

  "Religious wars, the Black Death, smallpox, famine..."

  Some are natural disasters, some are man-made disasters, but now they all have a new common ground, and they all appeared under the influence of the builders of the country.

  "This is a new reincarnation, a new [restart]."

  Queen whispered.

   "A world war."
