Chapter 2694
Beside them, the eldest prince Charles Clarissa seemed to be persuading senior Eluli Clarissa.
Duck's eyes moved slightly and fell on Quintina North, and then he found that she had gotten into the car alone.
Suddenly, the warning in his head seemed to go off again, and his eyes subconsciously scanned the members of the Royal Academy quickly, but found nothing.
This made him hesitate for a moment, and there was a slight doubt in his heart.
Strong or talented prophets often feel this way.
They will use divination techniques to divine fortunes when they have a good or bad premonition.
But nowadays, divination is no longer a matter of accuracy. For fear of being misled, the prophets dare not divination easily.
Dak has been able to capture this premonition more and more recently, but after thinking about it, she still couldn't figure out what the problem was.
Thinking about it carefully, maybe it was just some sudden glimpse of the scene that touched him, and it was not related to the prophecy.
After all, it was just a little bit, and it couldn't even be called a premonition.
Soon after, the players from the Royal Academy of the Kingdom also boarded the carriage.
When the queue of the Royal Academy entered the barrier exit, Charles Clarissa opened the curtain behind the carriage and suddenly showed a bright smile towards the castle of St. Marian Academy.
This trip to St. Marian College must be a turning point in his life.
…
The sun sets in the west, and the sunset floats in the sky.
With all seven colleges leaving, St. Marian College gradually returned to its former peace.
This time, the massive first college competition was completely over.
Although the fermentation it brings is destined to be far-reaching, that will happen later.
The monsters in the dense forest also continued to build temples.
It was also necessary for Dake to take Ergani to the dense forest to select a location.
He did not go to the cafeteria with the students, but turned around and walked in the direction of Professor Sylph and others, and naturally blended in among them.
"How's it going?" he asked.
Professor Silver said: "Sister Karian checked once in the morning and at noon. The probability of Werther being parasitized is very small."
"Good thing." Duck smiled.
Professor Silver continued: "The soul fire of the two sibling bodies has been preserved, but it has only been twisted into a soul particle to temporarily maintain immortality. As for the specific treatment method, it is still under discussion."
Dak said: "You really need to be cautious, especially..."
Professor Sylph nodded and said: "In that regard, Steven sent a message saying that he has induced relevant memories, but only partially due to the memory loss caused by spiritual annihilation. However, we can still figure out a little bit of the context. Let's get together after dinner. Go check it out.”
"Okay." Duck followed the professors to the cafeteria to have dinner together.
After all, matters related to the Demon King were top secret, and they did not discuss them in detail in the cafeteria.
Dark brought the topic to the Academy of Sacred Mysteries.
"You mean Caleb Norris? He probably wants to poach people." Professor Silver said while poking the beans, but he didn't seem to care.
"Poaching people?" Dak recalled the previous situation, and it seemed that there was indeed something like that.
But considering what happened to Senior Sister Pandora and Aunt Hephis before this, why does the Holy Religion have the right to poach people?
Furthermore, isn’t the Holy Religion a staunch supporter of pure-blooded humans? Why can they poach people?
Seeing his doubts, Professor Sylph whispered: "There seems to be something going on within the Holy Religion that requires the use of a Holy Son or a Holy Daughter. But the existing Holy Sons and Holy Daughters in the Holy Religion are all leftovers from the previous generation. , basically there are various problems left, and the only saints and saints of this generation are Evan Pearson and Audrey Joan of Arc, but Audrey Joan of Arc has the spirit of war. Evan Pearson was far from mature enough to be embarrassed, so he fell in love with Pandora.”
Dak frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Senior Pandora, is she qualified to become a saint? She is not..."
Professor Sylph smiled and said: "Although it is no longer a secret, not many people know about it. In fact, the various rituals of the Holy Religion have no influence on whether pure-blooded humans are Require."
Duck's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but feel extremely surprised.
You must know that the most prominent teaching of the Holy Religion is "treating humans as saints", so it is natural to hate subhuman races, but the truth is actually like this?
Professor Silver said: "This is religion. The purpose of insisting on pure-blood humanism is only to improve religious cohesion and highlight the sacredness of [Holy] faith. In fact, all their rituals only require human blood. Don't say Now that they are dragons, even orcs and elves can perform the consecration ceremony of the Son and Saint. In addition, dragons and humans are different after all, and they have always been treated differently from subhuman races such as orcs and elves. According to Caleb Norris, he probably wanted to confer Pandora as a [Holy Dragon] and then use the concept of a [Holy] protector to guide public opinion, but no matter what.
This is definitely a choice made out of necessity. I just don’t know why we need a saint so urgently. And based on my observation, Caleb Norris’s behavior is just a personal opinion, and I’m afraid it has not yet received the Pope’s approval. "
"Pope, Saint Patricius." Dak said his name lightly, then suddenly raised his head and said, "I heard that the life span of the Pope is always very short?"
Professor Silver nodded slightly and said, "Yes."
Dark thought for a moment and said, "How is the academy prepared to respond to this matter?"
But Professor Silver just shook his head and said: "This is her own business. It is naturally up to her to decide whether to stay or stay."
"Indeed." Duck lowered his head and took a bite of the steak, chewing it carefully.
St. Marian's College has always been an educational institution.
They have no intention of changing this positioning.
Students come and go without restriction.
…
After meal.
Dark, Professor Silver and others came to the secret laboratory behind the teacher's dormitory.
Walking into the old place, you can see two [identical bodies] printed from the same mold lying on different beds.
One of the [peers] has a [dream machine] connected to its head, and Professor Steven Harvey is controlling it.
On the table next to the [Dream Making Machine], there is a crystal ball currently placed.
Inside the crystal ball, there are various kinds of soil deposited at the bottom to form the ground, and above the ground, there are constant changes in the scene, which is obviously the dream display of the [peer body].
Duck looked at the newly built machine and couldn't help but sigh.
Professor Kazel invited them to sit down, pointed to the world in the crystal ball with great interest and said: "If you see that river, that is the famous Styx River."
Although the picture in the crystal ball is not particularly detailed, it is generally recognizable.
Duck saw the River Styx in it just at a glance. The water of the river of the underworld was clear and calm, with only the black color reflected from the bottom of the river.
But from the outside, the river of the underworld does not seem to be dangerous, and there are no skeletons or corpses in the river that are said to pull people who cross the river into the river.
Looking at the riverside, there are many gray-white spirits wandering unconsciously and aimlessly.
But compared to the wide and long River Styx, the number of those spirits is still completely insufficient.
There is nothing like the legendary confusion and terror of countless dead souls gathering on the banks of the River Styx.
"It seems that the underworld is also short of people." Dak suddenly said humorously.
"After all, the last age of gods was an unknown number of years ago." Professor Kazel said, "The connection between the real world and the underworld has been cut off for an unknown period of time. Even if there are dead souls who can enter it, it will be from nowhere. There are actually a lot of souls squeezed into this section of the river. "
Suddenly, a very vague noise came from the crystal ball, and in the distant border, the ferryman holding the oar slowly drove the boat.
That is the Styx Ferryman, that is, the boatman of the underworld. In myths and legends, he is often responsible for ferrying the souls of the dead to the other side of the Styx.
But from this side, the Styx Ferryman in the crystal ball is just a blurry black shadow. Even the boat at its feet is blurry and can only be identified by its outline.
"God is invisible." Professor Kazel mentioned.
Duck then saw the dead souls on the banks of the Styx River. When the Styx Ferryman appeared, they were drifting towards the small boat.
Even through dreams, it is impossible to see the full picture of the Styx.
The dead souls drifted to the river bank closest to the boat, but the Styx ferryman had no intention of stopping.
The dead souls have obviously lost their bodies and are floating in the air, but they cannot float on the river bank. They can only watch the Styx ferryman gradually go away.
Short story... ○QUN: ⑻·〃五⑺游≠◆ browse`∠③≤|死死二 Only desolation and despair are left in the picture.
…
"This is just a memory fragment of [the peer]."
Professor Kazel then explained aloud: "I finally got this opportunity, so naturally I want to see what the legendary underworld is like."
"Now that you've seen it, how do you feel?" Professor Silver said.
Professor Kaser's face showed a little disappointment: "It is quite different from what is recorded in the literature."
"Maybe it's just that the Demon King's memory is not complete enough to complete the entire picture of the River Styx?" Professor Lily didn't know when she was lying in front of the crystal ball.
Dak said: "Is it possible that he has only experienced so much?"
"It's possible," Professor Kazel said. "Look at this perspective. It's always fixed, which means that the Demon King is hiding somewhere and observing secretly. He was sent to the underworld, but unlike these dead souls, he didn't After being wiped out of consciousness, the first time I saw the Styx Ferryman, I didn't instinctively gather around him, but hid."
"Then did he cross the river in the end?" Duck asked curiously.
Professor Kazel shook his head and said, "No."
"No?" Duck said in surprise.
Professor Kazel said: "Yes, no. He was also sent to the underworld in a soul state, but it was completely opposite to the situation of all other dead souls. When he first entered the underworld, his consciousness was biased towards chaos, which was the same as those who were polished. The soul of the unconscious soul is similar, but his soul has a very special ability. Therefore, from the time he was sent to the underworld, his soul began to devour the souls of the dead randomly for a long time. After a while, his consciousness gradually became clear, and he knew who he was and where he was. After that, he began to feed on the souls of the dead, especially those whose consciousness had not been completely erased, which could give him more information. How spiritual.”
"Up to this point, he has the spirituality of a normal person."
Having said this, Professor Kazel pointed to the River Styx in the crystal ball and said: "After gaining wisdom, he discovered that he was different from all other dead souls. He was an extremely special existence, and specialness means value, but If there is only value but no power, it is not a good thing, so he began to avoid the Styx Ferryman and did not easily get involved in danger. "
"I heard that the [Immortal Demon King] is very cautious and never does anything he is not sure about." Dark said.
"That's true." Professor Kazel said, "So for a long time after that, he still just pretended to be an ordinary dead soul, constantly eating away at the dead souls and becoming stronger."
In the process, [The Third Demon King] discovered that even this side of the Styx was not safe.
There are some creatures that live on the riverside of the underworld and feed on the souls of the dead.
Among them, [Twin Demon Spirits] is one of them.
Yue∽&Fei≡qun:):⑧◆◎⒌㈦ˉ■六—”⒍弎]£4∑☆Si≡Dak asked: “[Twin Demon Spirits] really exist in the underworld? When did the demon clan begin to exist? "
Professor Kazel said: "I have studied the history related to the demons. The origin of the demons has long been unverifiable, but I guess they are not a new race, but a unified name that was formed later."
Dak said: "It's like encircling some creatures and naming them as demons?"
Professor Kaser said: "That should be the case. But if they can be named the same organism, they may have something in common."
Dak said: "What do the demons have in common? Can they use the power of darkness?"
Professor Kazel said: "Not all demons have dark magic power."
Dark pondered for a moment and suddenly pointed out: "So, once the underworld is reconnected with the real world, the demons that were supposed to be almost extinct will reappear?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the professors all looked at each other, and after a while they said, "That's the truth."
Since the demon clan does not only exist in the real world, it is far from being extinct.
When the gods revive and worlds like the underworld are reconnected with the real world, the demons will naturally re-enter this land.
And the [Immortal Demon King] has gained a new life somewhere unknown.
"It sounds like..."
"The reincarnation of the hero and the devil is far from over yet?"

Volume 2: Chapter 1371 Chapter 13 Bright Gold (8k)??
When talking about such topics, the atmosphere will always be heavy.
"How is this [Third Demon King] related to Bright Gold?"
Professor Sylph tried to advance the topic.
Professor Kazel calmed down and said to Professor Harvey: "Steven, is it okay?"
Professor Steven Harvey took a moment to gesture.
