"Why are you interested in this organization? If you want to join an interest club, wouldn't the drama club be more suitable for you?"
Sonia saw Felix get into the driver's seat. She thought about it and chose to sit in the back row. She stretched out comfortably on the leather sofa and answered casually: "I joined the drama club last semester.
It’s just a playground where a few medium-quality women compete with each other, the service staff are a dozen low-quality men who circle around them, and the prizes are one or two high-quality men... But last year’s prizes didn’t quite suit my taste, and I felt like it was nothing.
I just want to quit the drama club."
"Do you quit the drama club until you get bored..."
"Since you know the Four Pillar Cult, you must also know that it is not a boring society where boys and girls find reasons to mate." Sonia took out a wet wipe and wiped the sweat on her neck and said, "In other words, it is more boring than that kind of society.
Societies are much more dangerous."
Felix tapped the steering wheel lightly with his fingers, "Theoretically, there shouldn't be any information about the Four Pillar Cult in the Kingdom of Stars... Do you mind telling me where you got this name?"
"The Magician's Manual in the Void Realm."
"...If you mind, you can just say you mind." Felix said calmly: "There is no need to provide such completely unfalsifiable evidence. The information obtained from the magician's manual does not have any legal effect, or even credibility.
They are all discounted, you should have seen "The Legendary Treasure", right?"
"Of course, I've seen the version with Deida Rose five times!" Sonia didn't feel sleepy anymore when it came to this, "But I really saw it from the magician's manual."
"The Legendary Treasure" is a well-known fable in the Kingdom of Stars. It has been shown on the light screen many times. The content of the story is not complicated. To put it simply, there is a legendary treasure in the virtual world, but no one knows where it is. The protagonist is
A cute new magician got a golden magician's manual during his adventure in the virtual world, which described the correct rituals for obtaining legendary treasures. However, in order to perform the rituals, the protagonist needs to delve into the magic faction and summon
Required magic spirit.
When the protagonist arranges rituals and activates miracles, the legendary treasure door appears, but behind the door is not a treasure, but tens of thousands of tentacles and boundless darkness. The protagonist wants to resist, but he does not expect his own magic.
Lingdu took the initiative to surrender and ran towards the embrace of the treasure door.
It turns out that the magic factions and magic spirits required to complete the ritual are just to make the summoner more 'palatable'. The treasure door is not very powerful, but for every summoner who studies the ritual, it is
Just the right natural enemy turns the summoner into nothing but food!
The ending of the story is about a young magician who has just entered the virtual realm. After finally defeating the magician's projection, a golden magician's manual is revealed...
This fable naturally teaches everyone to work hard and not to expect unexpected wealth. But for magicians, this story has another layer of warning - the information and knowledge in the magician's manual is very dangerous.
"If you only know about this organization from the magician's manual, there is no need to investigate in such detail, right? Since you found me, it means you have already checked it out in the library, right? Why didn't I know you had such strong curiosity?
Are you saying that the swordsmanship training arranged by Professor Trozan for you was not enough?"
"Tsk, if you don't want to say it, don't say it. Just drive me back to my dormitory."
"Doubt is not the same as rejection. I hate your self-righteous way of thinking." Felix stepped on the accelerator and reversed the car: "But I don't know much about the Four Pillar Cult. After all, as I said, you don't
It was impossible to learn anything about this organization from any written source, and the Empire very thoroughly destroyed all information."
"I also heard about this sect occasionally when I was hanging around in aristocratic circles, but when I mentioned it, it was mostly out of curiosity. According to my understanding, the four pillars of the Four Pillar Cult respectively represent four codes of conduct, tyrants who rule with violence, and tricks with conspiracy.
The treacherous figure, the loving father who was tortured by despair, the prince who was drowned by joy... You can probably guess that the only one among the four pillars that is favored by the nobles is naturally the prince of joy, who symbolizes pleasure."
Sonia put her hands on the driver's seat in front and asked, "So...does the Four-Pillar Cult exist in the Kingdom of Stars?"
"It doesn't exist." Felix shook his head: "The premise for the existence of all sects is that people have a need for spiritual sustenance, or the reality makes people feel dissatisfied, so they choose to pray for the salvation of a great existence. The stars are a great country, and there is no
The soil upon which heretical sects grew.”
"Didn't you just say that there are nobles who believe in the Four Pillars of God in pursuit of excitement?"
"Everyone will have ideas that they think are correct at any time. Childishness is a stage that everyone must go through, and nobility is no exception." Felix said: "But the reason why nobility is nobility is because of the title.
His glory will protect them from childishness and evil.”
""You can't become a minister without a title, and you can't govern a county without a nobleman"... You should have memorized the "Nobility Act" and know why nobles have status and rights that are superior to ordinary people, right?"
"Blessings from the stars." Sonia said: "It is said that every noble who is officially knighted will be blessed by Her Majesty the Queen, and from then on he will become wise, powerful, just and strict... In fact, this is indeed the case."
The class barriers in Fanxing are very strict. If you are not a noble, no matter how talented a magician you are, you will never be able to control the real power of the empire.
However, the restriction is only 'noble'. If you can inherit the title of nobility through marriage, or have made great achievements and have Her Majesty the Queen personally confer a title, no matter how you become a member of the nobility, then you will have access to the ruling class.
Tickets, whether you can become an important minister of the country depends on your ability.
In this era of highly developed information exchanges, if Sonia was even slightly arrogant, her classmates would spray her with more than ten pages of comments on the Curtain Forum. However, such obvious class discrimination did not cause any waves in the Kingdom of Stars.
Even Sonia, who has felt that society owes her a throne since she was a child, thinks the aristocratic system is very good.
Because nobles are really good.
Fair and strict, not afraid of difficulties, diligent and studious, and dedicated, this is the world's impression of aristocrats. Whether it is a libertine wandering among flowers or a greenhouse flower that even a mosquito has never seen, the moment he inherits the title and becomes a noble, he will become a noble.
Be steady and mature, become a pillar of society who can contribute to the Kingdom of Stars, do your best to safeguard the interests of the masses, do not show favoritism, seek personal gain, do not mess around, and do not be lazy.
The reason for all this is because of the "blessings of the stars".
The textbook description of the Blessing of the Stars is: "Let the nobles awaken to their responsibilities." In the past, Sonia thought it was just an empty talk, but after she came to Galashi and learned more about the perfect integration of the noble system and the bureaucracy, she realized that this
The sentence is actually true.
"Those you mentioned are all side effects. There is only one core influence of the Blessing of the Stars." Felix glanced at the distant night stars: "It allows the nobles to remain absolutely loyal to the stars."
"Absolutely loyal?" Sonia was startled: "Brainwashing and domination?"
"It can't be considered brainwashing." Felix thought for a while and said: "For example, Sonia, you value your mother very much, you also like to make money, and you are willing to make some contributions to the Kingdom of Stars, but if you want to divide
No matter how high or low, motherhood should be more important than making money, and making money should be more important than benefiting the stars, right?"
"Of course." Sonia paused: "Actually, making money is not much more important than benefiting the stars...unless you make a lot of money."
"So in your heart, mother's priority is the highest, followed by making money, and then the stars. The so-called absolute loyalty is to turn the concept of 'benefiting the stars' into the highest priority, nothing more." Felik
Si said: "If it is a complete brainwashing and domination, then the nobles must have resisted long ago. No one wants to become a puppet who has lost himself."
"The power of the blessing of the stars is that it only allows the nobles to regard the stars as the most important objects of protection, but it does not take away the nobles' other spiritual sustenance, such as family, lovers, children, and hobbies. If during the statutory vacation,
The nobles are almost no different from normal people, and they can also enjoy entertainment and social status that ordinary people cannot achieve."
Felix glanced at the village girl in the rearview mirror: "Even if you know this secret, if given the opportunity, would you be willing to become a member of the nobility?"
Sonia thought for a while and said, "I think she is willing."
Although the blessing of the stars involves brainwashing, if the priority of 'benefiting the stars' is only raised to the highest level, Sonia feels that she can accept it. After all, this is the country where she was born and the land where she grew up. If possible, Sonia would definitely want it too
The stars are getting better and better.
In other words, most people must be willing. After all, benefiting the stars is an admirable life goal. This question is like 'if you want to be a good person, the price is that you become rich' - who
Don't want to!
"So you should understand why there is no Four-Pillar Cult in the Kingdom of Stars." Felix said: "Under the just and selfless rule of the nobles, the people of the country live and work in peace and contentment, and their living standards improve year by year. The Four-Pillar Cult cannot affect any social class at all.
."
"You can't find any information about the Four Pillars of God. On the one hand, the empire was destroyed, and on the other hand, no one needs the Four Pillars of God."
"Sects that are not needed by the people will naturally be swept into the garbage heap."
The car stopped on the road in front of the dormitory area. Felix pressed the button to open the rear door and said, "That's all I know about the Four Pillar Cult. Do you have anything else to ask?"
"No." Sonia shook her head: "Actually, I'm just curious."
"I don't care where you heard this name, but as a friend, I give you a piece of advice - don't pursue the Four Pillar Cult anymore."
"Why?"
Felix turned around and looked at Sonia.
"Because it's a waste of time." She said: "You are a genius swordsman and you don't have free time to waste on such boring things. I think you are not saturated with training. It seems that you need to report to Professor Trozan tomorrow that you are not doing your job properly...
"
"I always feel that you have become very arrogant today," Sonia said without any timidity: "Is it because you don't have to duel with me tomorrow? Why don't I ask the professor to check your study progress during the day? I can get a newspaper
Fight with you..."
"You are so annoying! I hate you!"
Sonia got out of the car with a smile, leaned towards the car window and said, "Thank you, see you tomorrow."
Seeing Sonia jumping into the girls' dormitory building, Felix breathed a long sigh of relief. He felt like his brain would boil if he talked to this village girl for a while longer.
"Um?"
The steering wheel was stained with blood. When she looked carefully, she found blood oozing from the glove on her left hand.
Felix's palm was scratched by Sonia just now, but she never dared to take off her gloves for treatment. Now that the village girl left, she could finally take off her gloves. However, she was not in a hurry to treat the injury, but put her left hand over her eyes.
forward.
In the palm of her left hand, there is a very round... hole that can just accommodate her eyes.
The already beautiful lavender eyes were decorated with round holes and glowed like a kaleidoscope.
Felix looked through the round hole at Sonia who walked into the dormitory building in the distance.
"Who told her about the Four Pillar Cult?" She murmured softly, "I hate this kind of instability."
