"You may have heard that the ancient chosen ones were divided into two camps: the Pantheon and the Parliament..."

I've never heard of it... Victor looked around the audience and found that the representatives of the big families all had calm expressions, with only a few people looking slightly confused. He was suddenly a little frustrated, and then comforted himself: I know

There must be more secrets than all of you.

Constantine paused and smiled: "In order to describe it more clearly, please allow me to take a moment to introduce the Pantheon and the Parliament."

You are such a good person... Victor sat up straight and listened to the paladin's story attentively.

"The ancient wizards were aloof and not interested in worldly power. They were obsessed with the study of witchcraft and attempted to master more powerful power. The knight family managed the wizard city-state. The ancestors believed that the greatest pursuit of the chosen ones was to obtain eternal youth, and

The inheritance of witchcraft talent. Haha, this is exactly the power of our knight's bloodline." Constantine chuckled and continued: "The ancient wizards were very powerful. They could directly mobilize the power of the elemental sea in the form of witchcraft, and

Those with the blood of knights can never master witchcraft."

"This world is fair. Powerful witchcraft talents cannot be inherited. The extraordinary blood that can be inherited is the real nobility." Constantine chuckled.

Everyone smiled knowingly. No matter how powerful the talents of the chosen ones were, their political power collapsed, but the knights were still the rulers.

Constantine continued: "The chosen ones are not content with the status quo. They have enough time and resources to conduct relevant research. Gradually, the ancient wizards divided into two major schools, one is the infamous Pantheon, and the other is

It's a relatively moderate parliament."

"The Pantheon believes that wizards have very different innate abilities, representing different laws and paths. Each wizard can hear different voices, which are the gods' explanations of the laws of witchcraft. As long as the wizards learn from the evil gods' ravings,

You can strengthen your witchcraft talent and eventually become a god." Constantine paused and said: "For example, this is like a coachman deliberately eavesdropping on the exchanges between noble scholars, learning knowledge from them, and trying to become a god.

scholar."

Evil God? The Paladin calls the devil an evil god. His statement is contrary to the propaganda of the church. No wonder the Pope is unwilling to attend the reception... This shows that the church and the ancient family recognize that the Lord of Glory is not the only god. The metaphor of the coachman, carriage and scholar

It's also very interesting... However, I think it is more appropriate to use the metaphor of inside and outside the high wall. Sylvia once said that the sea of ​​elements circulates and never stops. The elements of the void sink and evolve into all things in the world. Matter dissipates and restores.

It is a void element and was absorbed by the elemental sea. If the elemental sea is regarded as a city wall, what is outside the city wall? There must be something, because I come from outside the elemental sea... and the evil god?!

Victor was sorting out the information while listening to Constantine's narrative.

"The council wizards sneered at this argument. They believed that wizards had a limited life span and could not reach the realm of the evil god in their lifetime. The whispers of the evil god can only be used as a reference and reference, and wizards must find another way out. The talent of witchcraft is just an opening.

The key to the door of the mysterious world. How the wizard walks after entering the door depends on the guidance of those who came before him and his own exploration."

"The wizards of the Council emphasize commonality and inheritance. They have created many non-innate witchcraft, including meditation methods to enhance magic power, potions to change the body, etc. Any wizard can perform non-innate witchcraft through study and exercise. Parliament

These witchcraft are called spell models. Therefore, the wizards of the parliamentary school are also called mages."

"Pantheon wizards pursue talent and personality. They strengthen their witchcraft talents by listening to the whispers of evil gods, and develop many auxiliary witchcraft around their talents. Pantheon wizards are called warlocks."

"Warlocks have outstanding talents and grow at an alarming rate, but mages occupy most of the resources. The rift between the two sides is getting wider and wider, and they gradually split into two major wizarding organizations, the Pantheon and the Council, which eventually triggered a civil war among the Chosen Ones."

Wait! This is a key point in history... The organizational form of the Mages Council is very similar to the parliamentary politics of the Alchemy Empire. Is the Mages Association of the Alchemy Empire the predecessor of the Mages Council?

"Your Excellency Constantine, please allow me to interrupt." Victor asked relying on his new status: "The Pantheon was split from the Council of Mages, which means that the history of the Council is longer. Do you know the Council

The origin of?”

"Your Excellency Randall, there is the Pantheon first, and then there is the Parliament." Constantine shook his head and said: "The warlocks gained an advantage in the competition and took the lead in establishing the Pantheon. The mages in the tower had to move to other places.

Distant city-states formed parliaments. At the end of the era of the Chosen Ones, the Parliament only occupied more than 100 city-states, while the Pantheon owned more than 800 city-states."

"This is impossible!" Victor yelled, "How can a mage with a legacy and organization lose to a warlock who is like a straggler?"

Sylvia glanced at Victor in surprise, wondering why he had such a big reaction, but she still explained: "Dear, this is not surprising. Wizards have different talents, and some have different abilities.

It is extremely ridiculous, such as making stones change color, but some are very powerful and can even transform into terrifying giant beasts. This is the difference between mediocrity and genius. Mage attaches great importance to learning and cultivation, regardless of talent. It is passed down from teacher to student. In fact, it is based on seniority.

.However, don’t forget that the chosen ones come from common people, not families. Will those chosen ones who have awakened super talents be willing to be on an equal footing with mediocre wizards? The growth rate of warlocks far exceeds the training speed of mages. Those with strong talents

Will a wizard choose the path of a warlock or a mage?"

Victor was startled for a moment and suddenly said: "Once the common people at the bottom awaken their outstanding wizard talents, they will only think about gaining stronger power as soon as possible and climbing to a higher position. Of course they choose the path of a warlock. I understand, warlocks all

He is a genius, but most mages are mediocre. The battle between the Pantheon and the Council is actually a battle between genius and mediocrity. No wonder the Council is not the opponent of the Pantheon."

"I guess the most important reason is that knights hate mages and like warlocks." Roland shook his platinum hair and curled his lips and said, "It's really boring for mages to hide in high towers all day long."

Because being a nerd is boring, because being boring is boring? Roland is really a strange flower... Victor thought to himself.

Constantine nodded in approval and said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is right. The practice of mages requires a lot of resources and time. They know how to take and rarely get anything in return. Whenever powerful monsters appear near the city-state, the warlocks will always lead the knights of the city-state.

The warlocks also led the team to clear them out and collect precious resources from dangerous areas. Therefore, the knights respected the warlocks more, and the warlocks gradually took over the right to allocate resources and the right to speak in the tower. Warlocks in some city-states began to exclude mages, and mages could not tell the difference.

When we don’t have enough resources, we have no choice but to leave the Tower of the Chosen One and join other city-states.”

"Following the Pantheon, the Council of Mages was also born. However, the Pantheon is similar to an academic organization, while the Council is a naked political power."

Uh... I'm such an idiot. Even if the Golden Knight is a weirdo, he is also a weirdo full of wisdom. No, Roland is really kind... Sophia and I are the weirdos among the nobles.

Victor looked at the eldest princess next to him depressedly, and Roland said angrily. "Why are you looking at me? Don't try to trick the teacher!"

Victor looked back in embarrassment, coughed slightly and said: "Magics need resources. In order to seize resources, they can only establish a political power. Only political power can resist the political power. The result of the confrontation is war."

"Yes." Constantine nodded with a smile and said: "Parliament and the Pantheon often have small frictions, but the size of the Pantheon far exceeds that of the Parliament, and the warlocks do not need too many resources. The real cause of the war is the Parliament.

A mage cannot resolve internal conflicts due to its own problems."

"Geniuses and mediocre people are only a minority, and those with ordinary talents are the largest group of wizards. Genius wizards fall to the Pantheon, and mediocre wizards are of no use without long-term study. The parliament can only let ordinary wizards take on the task of defending the territory and competing for resources.

.Ordinary wizards have the resources but no time to learn spell models, so they still embark on the path of warlocks. Over time, the ordinary wizards of the Council also flowed to the Pantheon, and took away the research results of the Council of Mages."

"The senior leaders of the Parliament realized that only mediocre wizards are the staunch supporters of the Parliament, and the Parliament is facing the dilemma of losing its inheritance!"

"The population controlled by the Parliament was already small, and the wizards all went to the Pantheon. The archmages finally couldn't sit still. In order to continue the legacy of the mages, the legendary archmage Andrew invented the blood sacrifice to allow the descendants of the mages to awaken their witchcraft talents.

No matter how talented these people are, they will never betray the Council!"

Constantine was silent for a long time and said solemnly: "The blood sacrifice wizards are different from the gentle scholars and mages. They are politicians, city lords, and kings. They are aggressive and ruthless. Under their leadership, small frictions turn into wars, one by one.

The city-state of the Pantheon was captured. The Pantheon transformed from an academic organization into a political entity, began blood sacrifices, and expanded its military strength. As a result, the blood sacrifice wars that swept all major races broke out."

"Just when humanity is about to become extinct, the great Lord of Glory awakens!"

Constantine drew a triangle on his chest representing the Holy Mountain of Light, and said devoutly: "His Majesty the First Pope Enoch was called by our Lord at the Holy Mountain of Light outside the city of Ayr, and founded the Church of Glory, thus opening up the Church of Glory.

A just battle aimed at protecting humanity and overthrowing the tyranny of the Chosen One!"

Everyone, including the four golden knights, lowered their heads and chanted: "Praise to the great Lord of Glory!"

Constantine raised his head and continued: "At the beginning, the Church of Glory was very weak, and the Parliament was already overwhelmed by the Pantheon..." At this point, he took a sip of wine and smiled.

Said: "As a knight, I tell you that the church has cooperated with the Council of Mages, and our three major magical systems were also founded with the help of mages. Please don't spread the word about this matter, and we won't admit it even if it is said."

Roland's beautiful eyes shone and he said loudly: "This is the first time I have heard this secret... Please continue to tell me, I promise that Uncle Williams and I will never tell anyone!"

Everyone nodded and promised to keep the secret. Constantine then said: "The church is rooted in the lower class people of the city-state. Under the cover of the parliament, it developed very quickly. The Pantheon could not withstand the joint attack of the parliament and the church, and was eventually eliminated.

, only a few powerful warlocks took some people and fled to the southern continent."

"The Council of Mages still naively wanted to co-rule the city-state with the church, and promised to completely eliminate blood sacrifice rituals." Constantine sneered: "But how could the ancestors let go of the initiator of all this. The war to eliminate the mages then started, but the mages

Already prepared, dozens of legendary archmage entangled His Majesty the Pope. The high-level mage cooperated with the city-state knights to annihilate the elite paladins and high-level priests of the church. The three early paladin families suffered heavy casualties and were almost wiped out. Ino

His Majesty led the remaining priests back to the Holy Mountain of Light and prayed to the Supreme Lord. Our Lord responded. He changed the laws of the world. Blood sacrifices cannot produce new wizards, wizards cannot embody the power of the elemental sea, and the people of the city-state

Nine times out of ten, they are all believers of our Lord. The four major knight families also joined the church and became paladins. With their help, His Majesty the Pope successfully persuaded the knight families in various city-states and let them stand by and watch. The parliament was isolated and defeated.

The outcome has already been determined."

Based on the description of the Paladin, the following analysis is made:

First, the evil god is located outside the elemental sea. Wizards can hear the evil god's whispers, which can be understood as the resonance of the law. Different witchcraft talents correspond to different evil gods, which shows that there are many evil gods.

Second, if Enoch is an alien, the Council should reconcile with the Pantheon and work together to destroy the church and end the war. The fact that the Mages Council can cooperate with the first pope shows that Enoch is also a chosen one. It can be seen from this that,

The Lord of Glory is also a supernatural being at the level of evil gods.

Third, extraordinary beings cannot come to the real world, but they can communicate with law resonators and exert extraordinary power through the resonators. Andrew's blood sacrifice and the Pope's prayer both confirm this.

The question is, why do extraordinary beings do this? What is their purpose? From the perspective of power alone, if extraordinary beings are regarded as gods, then wizards and priests are ants. Who can communicate with ants?

Presumably, blood sacrifices are dedications and prayers to the gods. The evil gods ask wizards to sacrifice themselves and feed back their power... Ha, their situation is dire, they are about to be doomed, and they have to make a deal with ants. Prayer of faith is also dedication and prayer, glorious.

The Lord has found a better way. If He wants to monopolize the power of faith, he cannot allow wizards to exist, and neither can mages!

Isn’t it too exaggerated that the Lord of Glory can change the laws of the world?! If He really had this ability, wouldn’t it be enough to completely exterminate wizards? Therefore, the Lord of Glory is not omnipotent, and He has great limitations in changing the laws.

Limitations are rules, and He must abide by the rules and the original rules of the world!

It is highly doubtful that the Lord of Glory changes the law in line with the original will of the world... No! Why does the Evil God not let wizards believe in themselves, but uses blood sacrifice? They do not have this ability, so the Lord of Glory is completely different from the Evil God! The Lord of Glory

It has special authority and bears special responsibilities. The authority is to draw the power of faith, and the responsibility is to protect the human race. This is a mutually reinforcing relationship.

The extraordinary creatures went too far and activated the Lord of Radiance. And because of the Lord of Radiance, the evil gods were about to starve to death. They found a special group of willpowers outside the elemental sea and threw them into the material world.

, that’s me... Their purpose is to use the king to activate the alchemy tower... Damn, it turns out I am incidental.

The creation rules of the Alchemy Tower are the same as those of sacrifices. Assuming that the Mage Council was inherited from the Mage Association of the Alchemy Empire, there is a reasonable explanation for Andrew's blood sacrifice. He knew that the power of the evil god could be exchanged for the sacrifice.

So, when the Alchemy Empire died, why didn't the Mage Association rely on the power of the evil god? There are only two possibilities, the sacrifice is invalid, and the sacrifice is prohibited. This means that the Alchemy Empire at that time fell out with the supernatural being!

According to the king, the Alchemy Empire encountered a powerful enemy and was about to perish. The alchemist miraculously invented the Void Creation Technique, used a sacrificial method to create alchemical creatures, and finally defeated the invaders. Assume that the evil god is a member of the Alchemy Empire.

Enemies, it is impossible for them to teach the Void Creation Technique to the Alchemy Empire, but since the mage offered sacrifices to the Evil God, it also shows that the Evil God is indeed related to the Alchemy Empire.

There is another question, who made the evil god so miserable? There is too little information to deduce, so the question is skipped.
To be continued...
