Chapter 671 Margot's Sigh
Thirteen.
This is the total number of families believed to exist in the Star Clan in the records left by the ancestors of the Margot family.
In addition to the ten stars, there are three unnamed stars.
As for the source of this number, Earl Margot explored for a long time, and finally determined that it has something to do with the card games in some areas today.
There are four suits of cards: Holy Grail, Old Sword, Star, and Scepter, each suit has thirteen cards.
When he discovered this, he was a little stunned.
It is not uncommon for holy grails, old swords, stars, and scepters to symbolize things.
According to the preaching of those churches, the props used by the gods to bestow power on the blue-blooded people are the Holy Grail.
The sacred cup filled with blue power, after drinking, one can obtain powerful power that can be passed down to future generations.
Even in some legends, the holy grail contains the blood of gods.
The old sword, symbolizing the weapons raised by the heroic resisters in the face of those hidden beings who intend to descend on the material world, the long swords that were damaged and broken in the epic war.
Stars, according to legend, the gods are located in the boundless deep space, and the stars are the apostles closest to the gods.
The scepter is the scepter in the hands of the church popes who took over the authority to rule the earth after the war.
However, this is just what the church says.
As a descendant of the Star Clan, the interpretation of "Holy Grail, Old Sword, Star, Scepter" is another——
The Holy Grail, through the blood of various extraordinary races, countless wizards have opened the way to the extraordinary, a race that does not possess extraordinary power.
The Holy Grail is the crystallization of the wisdom of the wizards, the fire and the source of strength for the human race to fight against the extraordinary race.
The old sword is the sharp sword in the hands of the wizard. It protects the Holy Grail from the suppression and slavery of those extraordinary races, the sword of order and the sword of resistance that maintain the fire.
The stars, but the symbol of the wizard's vision and counterattack, explore the source of those extraordinary races, the hidden existences that invade the material world.
Among the various records about wizards that Margot discovered from the family records, "stars" are not the "apostles" who are "closest" to the gods at all. If possible, Margot can be sure that those wizards who rose up His ambition is definitely to "become a god" or even kill a god.
This idea is also related to the last symbol——
The scepter is not about "substituting the authority of the gods' messengers", but to seize the authority - to seize the authority from the hands of the gods.
The cards used as games in tavern gamblers, businessmen and even noble clubs have completely different interpretations and completely different symbolic meanings in the eyes of these "true blue-blooded people".
It's just that the number of families in each clan is only ten on the surface. Regarding the "thirteen cards" card game, although the major clans have noticed it, they haven't thought too much about it——
The major clans, including Margot when she was young, just think that this is the usual routine of the church-stealing other people's symbols, carrying out intentional transformation, and then claiming to go out and become "your own".
However, now, Margot is surprised to find that after joining "Unknown Star", the number of families in the Star Clan has exceeded "Ten" and is close to "Thirteen".
Although he can't be sure that the four major clans hide three families, but the card game that is spread outside is not rootless, and it is more or less related to them, although it is the church's usual means of distorting symbols and then transforming , but the number "thirteen" may correspond to——
This is a card game based on the symbols of the four major clans and interpreted in a church tone. Maybe get the number of true blue blood families right.
It's a pity that he doesn't have any more information.
It is not that he did not try to trace the earliest time of the appearance of the card game, but there are few relevant records, and no one deliberately records the appearance time of this card game.
As for finding those dead souls to search for memories? Search history from the memory of the dead?
During the course of his investigations, the most asserted origins of these card games were some believers.
And calling the spirit body to search for memory can only get this vague result.
Margot didn't believe this.
Ordinary Extraordinary people know very little about the Phantom Realm, but as "stars", as a symbol of the vision of the wizards, as a symbol of the "star" clan of the Margot family, which symbolizes the vision of the wizards. As a member, he knows a lot about the Phantom Realm.
Ocean of spirits.
shadow world.
dream world.
underworld.
Moonlight world.
Various forces have different names for the Phantom Realm, but they will not deny the name "Phantom Realm" itself.
Because, just like the name of "Phantom Realm", the world where countless spirit mist surges like the sea is a world where falsehood and reality are mixed.
Moreover, for the four major clans, the Phantom Realm has even more special restrictions——
The members of the four major clans who stepped into the Phantom Realm will attract all kinds of extraordinary and phantom creatures because of the difference in the intensity of their blood.
Normal Extraordinary, when entering the Illusion Realm, will also attract phantom creatures or extraordinary creatures, but it is far from the hostility that Extraordinary of the four major clans encountered when they stepped into the Illusion Realm.
This is also the reason why Margot has never expressed doubts about the symbolic meaning of the "holy grail, old sword, stars, and scepter" in the clan.
Only the second star, the family of the crimson ashes, can use the special ability of the blood to cover up its own aura.
Ashes, Ashes, Burnt Stars, and their special abilities are the reason they were able to hide among a bunch of fake blue bloods and never be found.
However, speaking of these, he could not help but sigh.
"The Church of the Black Bell".
He couldn't help but think of the powerful organization that was so fleeting in the past that it shone so brightly that even many clans bet their hopes on them.
Although he had no real contact with this organization, the records left by the family clearly stated that many high-level members of the Black Bell Church came from the four major clans——
In the family records, when the recorder recorded these things, he obviously held a regretful tone.
The rise of the Black Bell Church was so sudden that the four major clans didn't even know that their members were related to each family at the beginning.
until
The church forces headed by the Rose Church exerted pressure and announced their identities when the Black Bell Church collapsed, threatening the major clans. Only when the major clans knew this fact.
Rapid rise and rapid fall collapse.
well.
Margot sighed involuntarily.
Although he rekindled his hope of fighting against the church because of the appearance of those hidden families, but
How much power do the major clans still have against the Church?
