Chapter 499 The truth of history
If you come out to fool around, you will have to pay back sooner or later.
Lin Qi has nowhere to escape and must face the evil consequences he has planted. No matter how hidden he is, he will be pulled out of history and severely ravaged.
Yes, the people from the Archaeological Association received the letter sent by the servants of the Milt family and immediately rushed to Wilson Town overnight.
Ms. Skye had already retreated to the safe house. Before leaving, she solemnly entrusted Lynch with the job of welcoming guests. The excuse... no, the reason was that she could no longer hide herself and needed to go back to her room to hide from the hounds. , but looking at her gloating expression at the end, Lynch always felt that she was saying, don't splatter my blood.
Aren’t we friends? Why treat us like this? And you two women, we are on the same side, right? Why do you act like you deserve the retribution that finally came, why did you come? And are you serious about taking a few steps back together?
Lin Qi sighed, feeling a little guilty looking at the scene in front of him.
Six carriages crowded the small courtyard, and a group of familiar faces appeared in sight. All of them have gray hair, but they walk faster than anyone else.
Why are there so many people here? Did I make some mistake?
In fact, when Lynch asked Chairman Ole to come for help, he was sure that the other party would give him this face. He believed that even if he just asked for help, the Chairman would not refuse his request. Based on what he has done in the past few months, he is confident that he has enough qualifications to invite this eighth-level powerhouse, especially with the excavation of Zul'Glasar on the agenda, and the Duke's Palace Ball. He came to the rescue and saved the face of this group of strong men, and it was even less likely that they would reject him.
So he found an excuse to prostitute the Third Age Plague for free, in order to avenge the other party's blood feud for the knowledge he prostituted for free last time.
The problem is, come on, why do you bring so many people, and everyone has a fierce look in their eyes, as if they want to eat me.
"Haha, Sir, let me introduce to you. These are colleagues in the association who specialize in historical research at the end of the Third Age. As soon as they heard that you had information related to the plague at the end of the Third Age, everyone came here. I stopped them all. I can’t stop it. Hey, classmate Leviv, looking at your expression, you don’t know what the meaning of what you are talking about is to archeology and history, right?”
? ?
What the hell? Does this still make sense?
At this time, Lynch didn't doubt that he was like a scumbag, he only doubted that he was like a retard.
"Classmate Leviv, Sir Leviv, you..."
Sure enough, his mentor raised his coffin and got up, so angry that his glasses fell off, and Lynch could only accompany him. Smiling, honest and good student.
"Well, actually, the catastrophe at the end of the Third Age, especially the plague stage, is very special. I must have talked about it in class, you should remember it."
Lin Qi immediately nodded deeply, He looked like he was listening carefully and deeply. It was the same expression he had when he looked up from a novel in high school and faced the teacher's gaze.
"You remember nothing, I should have given you zero points in class and asked you to re-read it." The old professor cursed a few times angrily, but still explained, "Now I can only know that that is A plague that lasted for hundreds of years caused a sharp decline in the population. People began to turn to medicine, then to the secret method, and then to the evil gods for sacrifice. After all efforts failed, people finally fell into despair. , some people remembered the existence of the gods again and began to pray for the gods' salvation, and then the three gods woke up from their memories. Therefore, the history of the Third Age catastrophe is of great value to study the process of the gods' recovery, and this period. History has been deliberately obscured for various reasons, so that even after thousands of years, even obscure people don’t know the truth.”
Lin Qi smelled a strange smell, frowned and asked in a low voice: "Is there any problem with this history?"
"If I knew there was any problem, I would still blame you for your letter Come after me?”
“No, what’s wrong? Why should it be so secretive?”
"Don't ask about taboo knowledge that shouldn't be asked casually. This is not something that normal people can know." The old professor scolded and turned his gaze to Chairman Ole. After seeing him nodding slightly, he whispered, "What on earth do gods do?" "Recovered?" ? ?
Lynch did not understand the experts’ questions for a while.
"There has always been a mystery in the academic world. For more than 1,300 years, historical researchers have been exploring it. For this reason, they even had huge conflicts with the church. The church hopes that we will give up exploring because it is the secret of the gods. It is meaningless to mortals. But for scholars, even if the truth has no value, it is the greatest meaning in itself. Even if we know it is taboo, we are willing to risk our lives for it. "
Chairman Ole. Lin Qi couldn't judge whether this attitude was right or wrong, but at least it made him awe-inspiring.
“There are these mysteries hidden in the story I told you this morning. There were so many fallen gods, why were only the three main gods resurrected? Just before and after their resurrection, people just mastered the distortion The way a soul becomes a soul-shifter, a large number of soul-shifters emerged, many of them very powerful individuals, and soon after them, many soul-shifters of different fallen gods appeared, and then the nine gods were revived. Are there any in between? Relationship? Is everything a coincidence? ”
Lynch's face was a little gloomy. Ole's question made him generate a lot of associations in an instant. Every one of them was very dangerous. It was the kind that in the middle ages of his hometown, if he said a word casually, he would be sent to the stake. But in front of his neighbors, he couldn't think too deeply. He could only collect his thoughts as much as possible and asked in a low voice: "What do you suspect is..."
"We don't suspect anything. I told you before , we study history, not invent history. We do not make preconceived conjectures in advance, but slowly restore the truth as close to history as possible based on strict evidence. As for what the truth is, we actually don’t care.”
“I see, so you hope to deduce the truth from the details I told you?”
However, a group of people looked at him with sympathetic eyes, as if they were looking at a disabled person. The chairman sighed: "You think too much. Even if you have read the most detailed history books, you can't just rely on the information you provided." The truth can be inferred from the information. This is a very long and tedious process that requires countless generations of efforts. However, on this road, every piece of information and every detail may hide a corner of the truth, so even if it is. It’s just a few words, and we will pay the utmost attention, not to mention that what you brought happened to be the details of the plague period.”
“I understand, I can tell you everything I saw, but this time. I can’t let you take it away in vain. I want you to do me a favor this time.”
“Send you back?”
"No, that was the original price. Now that the price has increased, we have to protect us for a while. As for the reason, I will explain to you later."
"Okay, but you have to tell us one thing first "How did you know the information you mentioned?"
"I saw a strange object, which happened to be a memory of that time."
"Hiss, the danger level of strange objects during the catastrophe is not low. There is no ordinary one. You still need protection. Is it disaster level or destruction level?"
"Hmm...advent level, maybe? ."
"Oh, then...what did you say?"
Facing the chairman's strange look, Lin Qi spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.
