Chapter 32 Passing the fire down from generation to generation
"... Then leader, where did this bottle of the source of Holy Order come from?"
Although he knew this was not good, Russell's stubbornness still made him ask.
Why does the deer head statue have the Source of Holy Orders on hand?
Her broken body was fixed in the Tower of Babel, and her relationship with the elves was severed for many years...but she still had some weak ties with the church.
Is she also one of the "customers"?
If this question is not clear, he will not be able to sleep.
Hearing this, the deer-headed statue was silent for a moment.
But her voice still sounded in Russell's heart:
[This bottle of power of Holy Order is your senior and also my senior]
……What?
Russell's eyes widened slightly.
"Is it that...senior angel who was frozen in ice?"
Russell remembered that there were actually many core personnel in the Tower of Babel, but they just didn’t know each other.
There are three old antiques who survived the war of teaching alone.
One is a deer-headed statue, the other is Zhonggo. The other is an angel who is still frozen.
The association generated by Russell even gave rise to a little fear for a moment.
That's the fear of having too high and overwhelming expectations.
But fortunately, the deer-headed statue immediately denied it.
[It’s not that...he had already become the source of Holy Orders before he was frozen by the church]
[In fact, the Tower of Babel may be the first organization to discover the method of producing the source of Holy Order]
"But Zhongxiang didn't mean..."
Zhongxiang said that he only recently got such a good thing from the elf mage in the company.
[Because Zhongo quit too early, and he never fully stood on the Tower of Babel’s stance]
The deer-headed statue quickly gave an explanation.
really.
Russell nodded.
Compared to the "idealism" of Bad Day, Mirien and the Deer Statue, Zhonggo's stance is more like "I agree with you and can help you. Of course I accept the deal with you and am willing to
I will keep it a secret for you, but I will never sacrifice it for you."
[The Wedge of the Mind can be used as a tool from the beginning to directly "suck out" the demons from the psyker's body]
[In this way, even if the demon in the "Devil's Egg" has not hatched yet, if you can't wait, you can use the mind wedge to forcibly extract the unhatched demon]
[That is "Psychic Energy Liquid", but it is far less valuable than the source of Holy Order. It only exists as a special material. The reason why it is rare and expensive is that it is too luxurious]
[After all, the difference between the original liquid of psychic energy and the hatched demon is probably equivalent to that of an egg and an adult chicken. This is only used to stop losses when the devil's egg must be opposed]
[Assuming that each egg can mature, then it will naturally be more valuable to harvest it after it turns into a chicken, right]
The ethereal voice of the deer head image rang in Russell's heart.
[Then, we have the wedge of the soul and the angels who voluntarily sacrifice themselves, so it is natural to discover this secret]
[The Tower of Babel has been passed down from generation to generation, leaving behind not only this wandering city, nor just me who gave up my body and completely integrated into the online world]
[The "legacy" left by each predecessor is also part of the inheritance]
[The Tower of Babel actually has other reserves of the source of Holy Order, but they cannot be handed over to you without reservation... If you are unable to complete the task, then they must be used as fire to cultivate the next generation of members]
[For example, the Hammer of Pain in the hands of Zhonggo, he was also another of your seniors, and it was also the opportunity for him to come into contact with the Tower of Babel]
[Short-lived species have limits, and unlike elves and dragons, their survival time in the world is extremely short]
[What we are fighting against is an enemy that is far more immortal and wiser than us]
[The Tower of Babel is like a fire bearer in the dark night, generation after generation, using its own body to spread the flame to the end]
[To achieve this goal, it is a natural decision for seniors who cannot move forward to turn all their inheritance into the wealth of the organization to strengthen the next generation]
[Like this floating city named after "Tower"]
[Like the hammer of pain in Zhonggo’s hand]
[Like these sources of Holy Orders]
【Like them, also like me】
The words of the deer-headed statue shocked Russell for the first time.
He had long known that the Tower of Babel had lofty ideals in pursuing the historical truth.
But it's just an ideal.
After all, knowing the "truth" will not make everyone have enough to eat and make everyone happy and healthy. It is indeed an ideal, but Russell feels that it does not seem to be that important.
It's like the historical text in Aquaman. Although it is indeed a hidden secret, it feels like that.
It seems to be hidden because it will shake the rule of the World Government, and it contains ancient weapons and the like... It is probably as good as Tu Yile.
What the Tower of Babel wants to do doesn’t seem to be much different from this.
Why does the dragon have to hide its history? Why do you care about that?
For ordinary people, what is the meaning of knowing the real history? Can it make people's lives better?
Or will it cause greater chaos?
Russell's answer to this question used to be negative... In his opinion at that time, the Tower of Babel was somewhat ungrounded and belonged to the stubbornness of educated young people with a touch of romanticism.
However, the situation is different after knowing that many angels have joined the Tower of Babel and even voluntarily sacrificed themselves for this great cause.
This was still in an era when the church had not metamorphosed.
Angels will not accompany intellectuals to play this romantic game.
There must be something that made them make this determination...and made them completely despair.
In despair, his generation was destined to be unable to achieve its goal. Therefore, he directly escaped from the ice and turned himself into "material".
It was precisely because of this that Russell clearly realized that...this was indeed the path chosen by some ancestors with great wisdom and courage.
It is true that he is arrogant.
He was the one who made the first impression.
These predecessors, who were once outstanding figures of our time, all attach so much importance to "real history"... even if they are shattered into pieces, like moths flying into the flame, they still have to pursue the fatal truth. They all believe that this truth can change the world.
This kind of determination and perseverance moved Russell for the first time.
Only then did he begin to face the mission of the Tower of Babel for the first time... instead of just using it as a tool for him to find the man and a "mission for exchange".
It was only then that he really had a vague sense of identity and belonging to the Tower of Babel.
As for a greater sense of belonging and identity, perhaps he has to wait until he is also exposed to that level of truth.
"... Chief, please remember to investigate what exactly 'Full Ripe' was used for by the company."
Russell could no longer continue his previous heavy words and could only forcefully change the topic: "After you find out, remember to notify me. I will go investigate other matters.
"Also, remember not to let Mirien do it. This kind of thing is too dangerous... Let the bad days go."
[As an information provider, you have the right to know the truth as soon as possible]
[When Bad Day finds out the truth, I will inform you immediately]
The "deer-headed" elf without limbs or abdominal cavity, hanging in mid-air, promised so.
But the information the deer-headed statue gave him was not useless.
After hearing this, Russell already had some vague guesses...
He has not forgotten that Ms. Sai Lun, the chairman of Tianen Group, is the secretary of the church.
Her status is second only to the Pope...and this position does not need to be rotated. Although the Cyber Church does not have a strong influence on Happy Island, she is the most powerful person in the Cyber Church.
If mages feed on angels...
...Maybe the Vatican also needs to use mages for what?
Russell speculated maliciously in his heart, but inexplicably hoped that he had guessed wrong.
