Chapter 503 What Happened After Leaving

The disaster that occurred in the Beinz area at that time was witnessed by countless people. The devastating scene and the violent eldest son had spread unstoppably throughout the world, but the truth behind this incident-including how the entire incident actually happened It's calm - but only a few people know it, and among these few people, only those who were present at the time know the complete story.

Of course this includes Ofra and Elson.

Nowadays, the Horleta Kingdom has successfully blocked a lot of news that is not suitable for spreading, and has carefully fabricated the parts that can be spread, and has been carefully pushed by the national public opinion machine to the restless public who are eager to know the facts. It must be admitted that this approach is good for most people: the royal family needs the stability of the country, the church needs pious believers, and the common people just need someone to tell them that tomorrow's life will be stable as usual. Everyone just needs to know what they need to know, and the world will continue to be safe. And the disastrous truth will naturally be dealt with by those who have enough courage to face everything, such as a big hero or a team of protagonists, or a 25-person land reclamation group that fell from nowhere... Anyway, that's pretty much the kind of people.

Elson led Hao Ren and his party along the rugged mountain roads of the Dragon's Back Mountains to the nearest Knights' station. As he walked, he talked about the information he knew: "The incident that happened in Beinz Parish was an invasion of evil gods, an ancient evil god. Bewitched some pagans, invaded the most sacred place in the world, and polluted the Twisted Woods, turning them into monsters. But the pious Archbishop Girton and a group of enlightened missionaries received revelations from the goddess in advance, Innocent people were evacuated in time. The power of the goddess then personally came to put an end to the evil god and its ugly servants. Archbishop Girton and all those who died in the incident were listed as saints or martyred heroes. They were personally heard in the voice of the goddess. He died bravely while under command—that’s what happened.”

"It's the version open to the public," Vivian smacked her lips, "It's similar to the tone of those people on Earth back then..."

"The people need a 'truth' that can let them sleep peacefully. Believe me, they prefer this version of the story to the real situation." The old werewolf laughed hoarsely. "Both the king and the archbishop know what really happened that day. They have been discussing matters related to the 'eldest son' in the royal capital for a while, and there are piles of complaints in the magic text messages sent by Ofra every day."

"I don't care about this. It's a matter that politicians should deal with anyway," Hao Ren shrugged. "How do you explain that crater? And the crystal jungle below it... That deep pit that is several kilometers long is definitely not a natural phenomenon. "

Elson nodded: "Of course it's not a natural phenomenon, it's a 'miracle'. The goddess praised the martyred warriors who bravely died that day, so she gave power to reward mortals. She used her divine power to create a crystal jungle, a jungle, in one breath. The crystals inside are a new type of magic ore - the magisters are not sure yet whether those ores are useful, but they do have many magical properties, so the church's statement is tenable. Now the Tower Sect and the Academic Sect They have sent their best magisters, and the Kingdom and the Church have built large laboratories at the bottom of the crater for them to study the uses of those crystals. They will study it—they must study it."

"It seems that I won't be able to shoot at your planet casually next time. I am actually linked by you to the goddess..." Hao Ren's expression was subtle, "Seriously, I am worthy of being a public opinion person... Editor of Huiyao Sect These lies come out of nowhere. Then how do they explain that the Holy Lake is not protected, but was bombarded by the 'goddess' herself... Well, you don't need to say it, I know it must be explained by the miracle."

Elson smiled silently, and then raised his finger to point to the camp not far away: "This is the Knights' station closest to the main peak. In order to sense you and join you as soon as possible, my troops and I have been Station here. Don't talk to ordinary soldiers casually after entering. Those people don't know anything about you."

"By the way, Ofra has gone back a long time ago? How is the overall situation in Holleta now? Are the Kingdom Knights and the Church Knights guarding here all the time?" Lily asked another casual question beside her. Before she could finish her words, someone beside her Betsy was excited and came over: Here is a crazy fan of the female marshal, the kind who can change her orientation immediately when Ofra gives an order.

The old werewolf lowered his voice carefully: "I have to make it clear that many things are not that I don't want to say, but that the matter is sensitive. Only Ofra can decide how much to trust you. As for Ofra... after that day She set out to return to the royal capital. She, as well as the surviving archbishops of the diocese, were going back to report to the king and the pope what happened here. The two knights had blocked the Dragon's Back Mountains from that day on. Now this place is not only a holy place, but also a sacred place. Is it a forbidden area or a dangerous area? There are also some wandering boulder guards who occasionally appear on the mountain roads, and we have to clean them from time to time. The Pope and the King jointly issued an order prohibiting general mercenaries and adventurers from entering the mountains. On the one hand, Protecting the secrets of the mountains, on the other hand, is protecting..."

Vivian interjected: "Protect the Crystal Jungle, right? I know, that may soon become a strategic resource."

Hao Ren was a little speechless when he heard this: "It's just a piece of glass. If you really want, I can help. You guys come out and I'll blast it from the sky. I can blow it up for you in four or four shots." There are eight million square kilometers of mineral veins..."

Before Hao Ren finished speaking, the data terminal muttered leisurely in his mind: "In that case, you are not far away from being shot - and destroying a crystal jungle with one shot is a small probability event, isn't it? It doesn't happen every time. It can trigger a chain reaction and not harm the geology.”

Hao Ren complained in his mind: "Hey, I understand the rules. I'm just bragging. Do you have to be more serious with me?"

"Who makes you want to be serious with a PDA!"

Hao Ren: "..."

Hao Ren felt that it was one of the great sorrows of life to argue with his tablet all day long, and the saddest thing was that he couldn't quarrel with it...

As for the old werewolf Watson, it was obvious that he didn't take Hao Ren's words seriously. He just smiled and said, "It's best not to let something like that happen happen again. I'm old and I may not be able to bear it if it happens again. "

"That depends on whether the remaining two eldest sons are easy to deal with," Hao Ren curled his lips, "Have the other two eldest sons been found?"

"The entrance to the secret room has been found. The king is organizing people to find a way to safely open the upper door of the secret room, but there is not much progress at the moment." Elson nodded, "The specific situation will wait until you meet Ofra. Just ask, it’s really not convenient for me to reveal too much.”

Elson was obviously worried when he mentioned the "eldest son". It was obvious that an enemy that was unprecedentedly powerful and almost like a natural disaster was something that he, a veteran general who had experienced hundreds of battles, was not willing to face, and he knew that even in front of him If these "foreigners" are willing to help, they will have to pay a heavy price: the completely destroyed Beinz parish is an example.

Seeing the gloomy expression on the old werewolf's face, Hao Ren didn't say much.

He did not dare to tell the other party that in fact, the mature eldest son was even more terrifying than what he saw that day: the tentacle monster in Beinz Parish had gone through a long slumber and had not yet grown in size. Even at that time it He was destroyed without even revealing his soul form hidden under the material world. But there is a well-fed and fully mature eldest son on the planet Tanagus. It has swallowed up the entire ecological circle. A single family has occupied the planet Tanagus. Its spiritual power even envelopes the entire planet. If Hollai Sleeping under the tower's crust was such an eldest son. Hao Ren probably had no way to save life on this planet except asking Raven 12345 to take action himself.

Elson took the group to a resting place and briefly informed them of the next arrangements: "When I get back, I will tell Ofra your news through magic transmission. Then how are you going to go over to meet her? Use your magic Space magic... Or should I prepare some carriages for you? Let me declare in advance that it is best not to use the military's teleportation array. Before meeting with Ofra, your actions should be low-key."

Betsy immediately jumped up when she heard "magical space magic": "Don't! The landlord has wet hands!"

Hao Ren was not happy at that time: "Just say it once or twice. As for talking about my hand cramps all day long, how many times have you teleported me on earth?"

Betsy stuck out her tongue: "Oh, I finally returned to my hometown. Let me recite the classic lines from the past to find out the feeling."

"Do you have a high-precision map with altitude and a more accurate scale?" Hao Ren took out a data terminal from his pocket. "We can calculate the coordinates of the fuzzy transmission based on the map. Discuss places with relatively few individuals, so that we can travel in different places. Under high-profile circumstances, contact Ofra first, we have some confidential matters to discuss.”

(I’m going out to do errands during the day today, so I’ll update in advance.)
