Chapter 557
Dak: "Hmm?"
Professor Sylph said: "It has been almost two months since the Demon King escaped from the seal and reincarnated. The Holy Church has finally started to take external actions."
Dak suddenly realized: "Is it really the Holy Church itself that is in charge? So have they done nothing in these two months?"
Professor Sylph put down the newspaper and said seriously: "That is of course impossible, but I think they are all secret actions. Since they chose this method, they may not have found the Demon King's reincarnation container, or they let it escape after finding it.
That's why they thought of some tricks to reduce the subsequent impact. Why do you think they made up such a story? A report?"
Dak frowned and said, "Professor, this is not easy to think of."
Professor Sylph said, "You can think about it from their perspective."
Dak considered, "If it were my Holy Church, we would not know how the sealed demon king committed suicide and escaped, so after discovering it, we would immediately dwell on this issue and start looking for external or internal factors. I think they should not be able to find external factors."
Professor Sylph nodded slightly, "That's the case."
Dak said again, "Then, they may need to clean up the inside, which should waste some of their time. Of course, the most important thing is to find the reincarnation container of the Demon King.
In this process, it is certain that some divination-like methods will be used. But since the Demon King has always been called "immortal", it seems that there are ways to deal with divination methods. Perhaps his reincarnation is special and there is no trace to be found. "
Professor Sylph said: "Indeed. If it is easy to find the container of the Demon King's reincarnation, even if it has thousands of containers, even if it takes ten or twenty years, the Holy Church will definitely clear all its containers. "
After confirming, Dak speculated: "In the case that the Demon King's reincarnation container cannot be found, they must think of how to do it. They can't deal with the subsequent problems.
For example, after the Demon King suddenly appears, it will cause an impact on the Holy Church, or the impact on the Shizu Society... They need to maintain stability! "
Professor Sylph nodded and said: "The word stabilization is well used. The Holy Church is different from us. They don't know that the Demon King's reincarnation this time will have an impact on the soul consciousness, so they will use the Demon King in his prime as an imaginary enemy. "
Dak asked curiously: "How powerful is the Demon King in his prime?"
"As for this question..." Professor Sylph took a sip of tea and said slowly, "It's probably about the same level as me now."
Dak couldn't help but frown.
Although he didn't know how powerful Professor Sylph was now, since she was the vice president of St. Marian College, even if she was not as good as Principal Arte, she should be one of the strongest people in the world.
Ten years of rapid development of magic technology is enough for an already powerful magician to be further reborn.
And the Demon King, who had a full ten-year window period, can actually be compared with the current Professor Sylph... How strong was it at the beginning?
"No wonder the brave Bright died in the battle with the Demon King."
Dark took a deep breath and said, "But since he no longer has the power to rule, why should we be afraid of him?"
Professor Sylph shook her head slightly: "Perhaps it is because the existence of the Demon King itself is a belief. The remnants of the Demons scattered around the world and those crazy heretical sects can easily gather around it and form a very considerable force.
Or perhaps it is because the Demon King has the technology to allow the Demons to multiply in large numbers, which may allow the Demons to revive. In addition..."
Professor Sylph looked up at him and said: "Although the magic technology in the past supported us in defeating the demons, it actually did not form a system, nor was it greatly simplified.
And now the magic technology has not only been greatly enhanced in depth, but also has formed a system, with a systematic learning method. People with enough talent, especially those with a deep magic foundation, are not difficult to learn."
Dake couldn't help but say: "Like Vlad?"
Professor Sylph nodded and said: "Like Vlad."
Dake thought: "This is indeed a problem. The Holy Church believes that the Demon King will become a big threat, and if the situation really develops to The worst part is that they will become the sinners of history if they let the Demon King escape from the seal.
So whether it is for maintaining stability or for protecting themselves, they need to remove themselves from this vortex. I think I understand!"
Professor Sylph's expression moved slightly and asked, "What do you understand?"
Dak said excitedly: "Today's Holy Church undoubtedly has one of the best voices in the world. In the eyes of ordinary people, what they say is authoritative.
Suppose one day they suddenly announced to the public that the Demon King has been completely killed, some people will not believe it, but not too many people will not believe it.
As long as the fact that "the devil is dead" is established before the devil announces his return, it will be completely killed in public opinion..."
"In other words, even if the devil appears, as long as no one believes it, it is not the devil, and it will not cause panic worldwide."
"As long as the Holy Church handles it quickly enough, the returning devil can be disguised by the remnants of the demon clan or the heretical sect. All statements depend on the Holy Church itself."
"Mastering the mouthpiece of the people means mastering the "truth" of the world."
"And this report is the initial hype!"
...
Hilfe opened her lips slightly, surprised.
She had some thoughts in this regard, but she didn't expect that Dark's insights were more detailed than she thought.
If the Holy Church was really acting as Dark said, then it was undoubtedly a lie to the whole world.
Between admitting failure and deceiving the world, they chose to deceive the world!
Once successful, it would be wonderful.
But this seemingly "wonderful" strategy actually carries a greater risk than "admitting failure".
Assuming that the Demon King is in power and this matter is exposed, the Holy Church will be doomed.
"Who came up with this trick?"
Professor Hilfe couldn't help thinking.
Is there such a crazy person in the Holy Church?
Aren't they afraid that other forces will get evidence of their deception of the world and overthrow them?
But then again, if the royal family has the evidence, they will probably keep silent.
And from the standpoint of St. Marian College, they won't say much.
Because the royal family and the Holy Church are not actually in opposition, and they even infiltrate each other.
They are both pillars to maintain the stability of the Society.
Overthrowing the Holy Church is not good for the royal family, the college, or the people.
Perhaps it will be different in another era.
But this era is like this.
Humans can no longer withstand internal wars in a short period of time.
The ten-year recovery period is too short.
The same is true for other sub-human races.
So the always neutral St. Marian College will make an exception and show a tendency to support the doves.
…
Just as she was thinking about this, Dak had already stood up and said, "Then professor, I'll go back first."
Professor Sylph nodded and did not keep her: "I should also mark the papers."
So Dak left the office.
He and Professor Sylph actually have some different perspectives.
Because he never thought that the Demon King would pose any great threat, and he didn't care much about the Holy Church itself, so he didn't think deeply about it.
This incident made him suddenly realize that the world is moving towards "informatization".
What the Holy Church is playing, or may be playing, is nothing more than the manipulation of public opinion information.
With the promotion of basic education and the development of the times, the information dissemination of newspapers will become more and more important.
But the symbol of "informatization" hidden behind it, the computer, has actually appeared long ago.
The branch card of St. Marian College and the door card in Dak's hand have all the functions of computers, and are even many times more convenient than the original computer.
It's just that no one has focused on this and further developed the technology of branch cards.
Moreover, the information dissemination of branch cards is based on the college barrier, so it lacks promotion.
But everything always starts from the simplest, and with a foundation, there is the possibility of development.
All defects and shortcomings can be solved.
If this technology can be developed and mastered, it is equivalent to mastering the information dissemination path of the new era, and it can even be said to be mastering the entire era.
...
Although so, Dak is just thinking about it.
Now he has no time and no interest to be the John von Neumann of this world.
There is also a test for potion science in the afternoon.
As for the Holy Church.
As for the Demon King.
Watch its madness and collapse.
Isn't it wonderful?
...
Three days passed in a flash.
When the last Warcraft exam was over, most students seemed to be freed from purgatory, and they wanted to learn to howl like wolves at the sky.
Among the six exams completed in these three days, the most difficult one was indeed the arithmetic class.
This can be seen from the pale faces of the students who walked out of the exam room that day.
The only thing that made them feel relieved was that on the night of that day, the first-year students suddenly found that the second-year seniors were also suffering the same pain.
Humans are always good at seeking a moment of peace by sharing pain.
Professor Bacon of the second-year arithmetic class not only used the textbooks compiled by Dak, but also combined the original textbooks of the second grade to deepen the processing, making this year's arithmetic class more difficult than ever before.
After Dak knew about it, he couldn't help but feel fortunate that "Anonymous" was written in many places on the textbooks, otherwise if the second-year seniors knew that the devil was in front of them, wouldn't they drown him?
Compared with the high difficulty of the arithmetic exam, there is an unexpectedly simple exam among the six courses.
The Warcraft exam papers written by Professor Nini are all very basic content, and anyone who listens carefully will not be unable to answer them.
However, Warcraft was originally an interest class like astronomy in the first year, and there was no need to increase the difficulty.
In short, the students who walked out of the Warcraft exam classroom were obviously much more relaxed.
The first-year students who finished all the exams did not even have time to return to the dormitory to put down their schoolbags and other things, and they flocked into the specially opened Traveler Street in groups of three or five to celebrate the upcoming three-month long vacation.
Dak originally did not want to go, but he had no choice but to follow under the pull of Doron and Pistan.
Diana and Rose naturally followed.
Both of them were in a good mood.
However, the first-year students were still relatively inexperienced, and they dispersed directly after eating a meal, and there was no other program.
Most people just strolled around the Traveler Street, and then returned to the common room of the Nobles' House, chatting and playing chess, having a great time.
Next, they have at least two extra days to stay on campus.
They can't leave until the professors finish marking the test papers and handing out the grade sheets.
In addition, the professors will issue different grades of summer homework according to the score range of each student.
On Friday night, there will be a final party and graduation ceremony!
The announcement of the College Cup and the wishing activity of the Holy Grail are also held at the same time.
As long as they think of the College Cup, the students of the other three colleges except the School of Magic will feel a dull pain in their chests and a lemon in their mouths.
…
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening before Dark got rid of the entanglement of Doron and others and returned to the dormitory.
He lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling in a trance.
"One school year, it's over."
"It's really bad!"
But before he could rest well, there was a knock on the door.
He couldn't help but frown.
