The silent man ultimately failed to remain silent.
When the hair and beard are frozen and the whole person is shaken into a sieve, even the silent man who was arrogant when facing the "Demon Seeker" can now only say in a low voice, "What do you want to know?
Just ask.”
Then, Ino's first question struck him like lightning.
"Where did the world runes come from?"
The silent man glanced at Ino, who was looking at him with a smile, and his original determination disappeared in an instant. After murmuring, he simply pretended to be resigned to death and closed his eyes in pain.
"have no idea!"
Obviously, it's not that he doesn't know, but that he doesn't want to say it - this silent man knows very well what the world runes mean, and on this issue, he would rather die than reveal any information.
"Okay, forget it if you don't want to say it." Contrary to his expectations, Ino did not embarrass him on this issue, but continued to ask about other aspects, "Tell me about the history and members of the Silent People.
Well, you won’t need to protect this with your life, right?”
When the silent man heard this, he was obviously stunned for a moment. He was already ready to sacrifice, but he was gently let go by Ino and was asked a question that was not a secret.
"The Silence and the Illuminati were born together." He carefully organized his words to avoid leaking information that should not be leaked. "We are the secret guardians of Demacia, guarding the safety of this country in unknown places."
"I guessed that." Ino nodded, "What is your relationship with the Illuminati?"
"The Silent People are part of the Illuminati." The other party gave the answer without hesitation, "The Illuminati is favored by Demacia on the bright side, while the Silent People adhere to secrecy and rules in the shadows."
"Then what secret rules do you all abide by?" Ino waved his hand, and a chair made of ice appeared under the other party, "I heard that someone recently successfully withstood the punishment of a stone crown. Is it because you judged his identity?
"
After hearing Ino's question, the silent man's expression became subtle.
He did not sit down, but looked hesitantly at the young woman wearing a mask in front of him, as if he wanted to see through her mask and find out her identity.
But unfortunately, after looking at it for a long time, he found nothing - he did not remember that such a number one person was among the files he had read, and he could not figure out why such a number one person could enter the Forbidden Demon Prison and go straight to the Demon Searcher.
's secrets.
"Since there is the punishment of the stone crown, isn't it normal for the Silent Man to record here the method of judging whether a person has really endured the punishment of the stone crown?" He shook his head, with a look of matter-of-factness on his face, "We preserve Dema.
Secrets and rules in the shadows of Western Asia.”
"I really don't want to talk about it at all." Ino was very dissatisfied with this perfunctory attitude, "I want to know the history of the Silent People, from the birth of the Silent People to the secret rules you keep -
—If you are still here talking about him, I can only use your key stone to go inside and see for myself."
As he spoke, Ino shook the keystone he took off from his waist.
The silent man's expression stiffened, and looking at the obviously activated keystone in Ino's hand, he could only sigh helplessly.
"The Silent People are the cornerstone of the security of the entire country." He lowered his voice and said in a pleading tone, "Girl, no matter what your purpose is, as a member of Demacia, I sincerely hope that you will not go too far.
Explore the secrets of the silent man——"
"Okay, stop the meaningless advice." Ino interrupted him, "You tell me, or I can see it myself."
"I said." Seeing Enoch's firm attitude, the silent man could only lower his head, "The birth of the silent man should start with... the legend of the Winged Sisters."
"Kyle and Morgana?"
"That's right." The silent man nodded, "Before Demacia was established, His Majesty, the first king of the kingdom, encountered a danger. At the critical moment, one of the ancestors stepped forward.
, saved His Majesty Oren from the evil mage."
Ino tried hard to maintain her expression and try not to smile.
"However, when the venerable ancestor took action, a Rakkor man who was mixed in the ranks of the ancestors stood up and, according to the custom of the Rakkor people, called the heroic ancestor a blasphemer.
And believed that he should be hanged to serve as a warning to others." The Silent Man's description is slightly different from Kalya's story, "Although the heroic ancestor died of serious injuries in the end, this Lakuo who was unwilling to unite with everyone
The Er people were still expelled from the ranks of our ancestors."
Obviously, regarding the issue of Mysheela, the records of the Silent People are generally similar, but the details are not small - as a righteous star spirit, Mysheela will not be exiled by a group of mortals, she is the one who left Demacia on her own initiative.
"Although the stubborn Rakkor was exiled, the noble ancestors did not affect her two daughters. They still accepted the two little girls." The silent man continued to tell, "These two orphans are like this
Following the ancestors, we continued to move forward and came to Renwall, and to what is now Demacia."
Here, Ino discovered another interesting place.
According to Kalja, although the mother of the Winged Sisters left the team of Demacia's ancestors, their father stayed here. However, in this silent man's narration, Kyle and Morgana
He immediately became an orphan.
"Under the careful teachings of the ancestors, the Winged Sisters grew up and became extremely powerful extraordinary beings. When the kingdom was established, they made outstanding achievements and left countless stories. This is the legend of the Winged Sisters.
." The Silent Man didn't know what Ino was thinking, and just calmly told these non-secret histories, "Amid everyone's expectations, they grew into a symbol of light and truth. Under their leadership, no matter what
Neither evil wizards nor terrifying monsters can stop the ancestors."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ino nodded. She had heard many legends about the Winged Sisters when she was a child. Although many of them were fables, many of them were indeed true.
The spread of history.
"It's a pity that in the end, there was an internal conflict among the Winged Sisters." The Silent Man continued his story, "They are too powerful and too stubborn. Regardless of Kyle, who hopes to eliminate all crimes, he will always give the prisoner
Chance and Morgana are too extreme - and the source of this internal strife is Demacia's first written law, the "Demacia Code"."
After hearing the part that Kalya had not said, Ino finally showed an interested expression.
"In order to bridge the conflict between the sisters, His Majesty Oren, who was already elderly at the time, hoped that they could seek common ground while reserving differences, so he proposed to revise a detailed code of laws. Merits and demerits would be rewarded and punished according to the contents of the code. In this way,
There will no longer be a situation where Kayle and Morgana are always arguing about one person or one thing."
"But, I have never heard of this "Demacia Code"." Ino secretly said to Kalya in his heart, "Have you heard of this code?"
"No." It was beyond Ino's expectation, and Kalya didn't know the existence of this code. "However, I seem to have guessed something - continue to listen to him."
"His Majesty Oren's proposal has been unanimously agreed by Kyle and Morgana. They are both willing to sit down and talk, using an extremely detailed code to weigh merits and responsibilities." The Silent Man continued, "However,
This code encountered a lot of troubles at the beginning of its compilation."
"..."
"Although the ancestors were noble and sage, they came from various places in Runeterra. Their customs and traditions are not consistent. It is undoubtedly an amazing project to use a detailed code to stipulate all rewards and punishments." said
When it came to this topic, the silent man's tone was subtly filled with pride, "Moreover, exploring the truth also requires some specialized means. Therefore, when the ancestors were arguing over the contents of the code, some people with spell casting talents
People were gathered together specifically to become the guardians and enforcers of this code."
"And this is the predecessor of the Silent Man."
"..."
"..."
From the mouth of this silent man, Ino learned about this history that had not been recorded in detail. According to him, although Oren's suggestion was good, it ultimately failed to bridge the gap between the Winged Sisters.
Before it was completed, they broke up angrily and left Demacia.
However, before that, whether it was the Winged Sisters or the German ancestors, their knowledge, skills and history were all retold and handed over to the Silent Organization, which was not called Silent at that time, so that they could investigate.
Truth and uphold the law.
"Then what happened? Where did the Demacia Code go?" After the Silent Man paused his story, Ino asked, "I have never heard of Demacia having this code."
"After the Wing Sisters left, the compilation work of the code increased a lot, but even though it took more than twenty years and three kings, the code is still far from being completed." The silent man cleared his throat and continued.
, "As the content of the code increases, more and more situations need to be judged, and law enforcement officers need to master more and more knowledge and skills, which eventually gradually exceeds the capabilities of most people."
Ino nodded upon hearing this.
Although I don't know what the specific content is in this "Demacia Code", at least now it seems that the Silent People do hold a lot of secret knowledge in their hands, and such amazing, unsystematic secret knowledge wants to be passed through a few
The difficulty for people to pass on is quite astonishing.
After all, there is no Karya among the Silent Men.
"In order to pass on this knowledge and truly implement this "Demacian Code", the Silent People were finally officially born - since executing the code requires casting spells, if you want to become a Silent Person, you must be a spell caster."
"But according to records, in Demacia at that time, the Forbidden Demon Stone had been widely used, and the number of mages in the territory was insufficient. Therefore, in order to find more seedlings that could become Silent people, Silent people cooperated with the Illuminati and reached out to them through religion.
Thousands of homes in Demacia.”
According to him, the cooperation between the Silent People and the Illuminati is purely...interest cooperation?
Ino nodded noncommittally and motioned for the other party to continue talking.
"In this way, Demacia at that time had an astonishing number of silent people. They were proficient in a large number of spells and understood the rules of reward and punishment in the "Demacia Code" better than anyone else... But even if
In this way, the Silent Man is still short of manpower."
"The content in the "Demacia Code" is really too detailed." Speaking of this topic, the silent man sighed helplessly, "The "Etiquette Collection" currently circulating on the market is just a code.
It’s just the basic rules for aristocratic etiquette.”
Hearing this topic, Ino finally showed a somewhat surprised expression.
Ino still knew about the book "Encyclopedia of Etiquette", and Lux often complained to her about the hardships she had put in to read this book - even though it was actually Kalya who was silently reminding her, but now that I think about it, the red tape still remains.
It made Lux feel like her head was as big as a bucket.
And according to this silent man, the "Encyclopedia of Etiquette" is just an insignificant part of the "Demacia Codex"!
"In order to better maintain the code, the first generation of silent people began to seek a kind of extraordinary power." The tone of the silent person gradually became lower, "They hope to use this extraordinary power to regulate, so as to use a smaller price.
Maintain this law."
"..."
Hearing this, not only Kalya, but also Ino had vaguely guessed some problems.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Then... someone discovered an unknown world rune hidden in Demacia."
Having said this, the silent man closed his mouth and fell into silence again.
Obviously, he does not intend to say anything about the world runes, because the world runes are too dangerous and deadly, and any information about the world runes must be kept strictly confidential.
Moreover, in fact, it is enough to talk about the matter at this point - just think about the Rune War, and what happened after the first generation of Silent people discovered the world runes, there is no need to describe it again.
"...In the end, with the joint efforts of the ancestors and the self-sacrifice of the first generation of Silent People, the World Rune did not cause too serious consequences, but since then, the Silent People are no longer the well-known Silent Law Enforcers.
, the entire Mute organization has since entered the shadow of the Illuminati, preserving the secrets of Demacia in the darkness."
"And the "Demacia Code" was also split into pieces and became a large number of codes of conduct including etiquette."
Ino nodded.
The twists and turns involved were not described in detail by the Silent Man, and considering the discrepancies between his account and Kalya's, the details of this period of history may not be exactly as he said.
But at least it is certain that all the nobles may not only be afraid of the silent man, but also have some intention to avoid suspicion.
This period of history is no longer clear to the nobles today, but their attitude towards the silent people has been passed down from generation to generation.
As for Ino, if there are no big problems with the silent man's story, then maybe the silent man can be used to help in the next actions?
Thinking of this, Ino took off his mask.
"Mr. Silent Man," she said with a smile, "I just came down from Mount Targon, now should the Silent Man judge my identity?"
