goddess of revolution

Chapter 339

"Since the Duke has been to Gwentorine's place, I won't talk about the things before the second mask was made regular." Vance began to talk in a hoarse voice. It was indeed very brief and finished in less than 10 minutes.

After the civilians were sealed off by the magicians to the city of shadows, the maiden of the night appeared, and the dawn would be reborn.After the wave of rebellion was crushed by the magician, the dawn will disintegrate, and the rebels have not disappeared.They buried their beliefs, history and hatred deeply in their hearts, and passed them down from generation to generation, waiting for the dawn.

More than 50 years ago, the dawn appeared, and another dark maiden came to the world, Gwentorine they called "the old woman".This made people see hope, and the Shuguang Society reunited because of her.

As Gwentoline grew up, except for her extraordinary beauty, compassionate heart, and a physique that was not eroded by the environment of the Shadow City, she did not show any more special abilities, which made the Dawn Society appear on the route. disagreement.

Most people think that since the saint did not bring great power, it means that the Shadow City still needs to be patient and wait.A few people think that the arrival of the saint is a signal, and they should start preparing for violent resistance.

The two factions had opposing opinions. The "Patience faction" feared that the "violent faction" would repeat the tragedy of more than 900 years ago, and took the initiative to eliminate the violent faction, and the two sides broke up.

In order to distinguish the Patience faction, the Violent faction established the Night Society, lurking in the dark, counterattacking the Patience faction who has occupied the name of the Dawn Society. Inadvertently, it developed into the most powerful terrorist organization in the Shadow City.

Over the past few decades, grievances and philosophies have been intertwined, and the images of the two organizations in the eyes of outsiders are not uniform.

In some people's eyes, Dawn will be a black glove for magicians to govern the city of shadows. Magicians can acquiesce in the existence of Saint Gwentorine, which is enough to show that they are puppets of magicians.The Dawn Society is full of sinners who oppress their compatriots and bully others, and the Night Society, which eradicates these crimes, is a righteous rebel army.

Others believe that the Aurora Society is a just organization that truly benefits the citizens of Shadow City.The backbones, headed by the Holy Maiden Gwentorine, strive for better treatment for the civilians of Shadow City through persuasion, petitions, and even blackmailing the city council.The Night Society, which is against the Shuguang Society, only knows how to kill people, so it is naturally a violent terrorist.

Hearing this, Li Qi expressed a sigh of emotion: "No matter how strong a barrier is, it cannot be separated from the influence of the power structure."

Behind these two factions stood different factions of magicians.

Then Vance talked about why the Night Society attacked Li Qi: "Some magician families gave us such a commission, and we also think that killing His Excellency the Duke is beneficial to the City of Shadows."

Li Qi was stunned. When did he stand on the opposite side of the revolutionary cause and become a reactionary that revolutionaries determined to punish?
"The duke came to the Storm Islands to represent Queen Theresia and deepen cooperation with the magician. Of course, you will take care of the overall situation. Not only will you not extend a helping hand to the suffering civilians in the Shadow City, but you will acquiesce in such crimes. In this way , even if the magician opens the Storm Islands and returns to the mainland, the Shadow City will not be able to obtain moral and substantive support from the mainland, and the Alliance of Order will only protect the interests of the magician."

Li Qi smiled wryly. This analysis does make sense, but it only stays at the level of street political movements.

Fan Si naturally didn't know that the small game of Shadow City was also a piece of the big game of Storm Islands.In this double-layer chess game, the relationship between the magician and the civilians of Shadow City is no longer constant, but there is room for loosening.

The Queen's faction headed by Hathaway and Menesus, in order to gain an absolute advantage in the reorganization meeting of the Supreme Council, used the civilians of Shadow City as pawns, and was going to push the Erxiang faction to the opposite of most people in the Storm Islands. This unites small and medium families, independent workshops and free magicians.

Even Li Qi himself was assigned a task...

Vance made such a judgment, in addition to the political vision is not broad enough, the more important reason is probably the position.Behind the Aurora Society is the Queen's faction, and the idea of ​​the Night Society is not reform but revolution.

Vance continued: "Those families also promised that if they kill the Duke, Night will gain more support. These supports will be transformed into the power to overthrow the tyranny of magicians when necessary."

That's the key!
As an organization, most of the activities of the Night Society are aimed at the Aurora Society. It has deviated from the path of resisting the tyranny of magicians, and it is inevitable that it will be used by the Erxiangpai family.

Just like Gwentoline said that the trafficking of compatriots is for the benefit of compatriots, Vance's rhetoric is nothing but self-deception.

As an organization, once it embarks on the road of hard work, can it stop?
So Li Qi became even more curious about the "Son of Dawn" who fell on his head inexplicably. What is this thing that makes the dark night return to the right way?
"This is about Lady Ye's oracle," Fan Si said, "Every night saint has brought Lady Ye's oracle, which is also the standard for identifying a saint."

"1000 years ago, the Saintess of the Night came to the world, Lady Ye's faith was revived, and the Aurora Society was also reborn."

"This saint...no one knows her name now, she brought an oracle: the night will last forever, and the dawn will come."

"More than 50 years ago, the saint Gwentorine was born, and this oracle appeared again."

"Everyone has a lot of interpretations on this oracle. Most people think that it means that Lady Ye will bring dawn to the city of shadows. Some even think that the goddess of dawn is another identity of Lady Ye."

"Some people think that it is impossible for Ms. Ye to have the two diametrically opposed priesthoods of night and dawn at the same time. This dawn is either the goddess of dawn or another god. Ms. Ye is only prophesying the future, so that Shadow City believers wait patiently."

Li Qi keenly noticed the unfinished meaning in Fan Si's words: "Is it the goddess of dawn? It sounds like you don't really agree with this possibility?"

"That's right, we don't think that the Goddess of Aurora, represented by the Star of Aurora, will be the god who saves the City of Shadows."

Fance said: "The Star of Dawn agrees with the oath of the broken tower. Queen Theresia, who has inherited the grace of God, is the spokesperson of Kaim, and Kaim has always been there."

Rather, Keim's priesthood is order, not liberation.

Liu Yin said impatiently: "Isn't it obvious? The dawn here is just a false finger, and does not represent the goddess of dawn. The belief of Lady Scarlet is great love and the liberation of slaves. The Pope of Lady Scarlet is the Duke, you , came to the Storm Islands again. See the Scarlet Lady as the dawn of liberation, Duke, you, the spokesperson, are you the son of the dawn?"

She curled her lips: "But I don't really believe it, an Assassin Pope?"

This is too far-fetched, Li Qi sneered: "Since the matter is so obvious, why did you attack me in the first place?"

"We didn't realize this at the time," Beshuu interjected next to him, "Duke, we started to think in this direction after you panicked the magicians at the auction."

Liu Yin nodded and said: "That's true. The magicians have been in a mess these two days, and many free magicians and magicians are hiding in the shadow city. The law of what you threw out, the Duke, was taken by the big families." Block it like a forbidden word of evil gods. They also said that the law would allow them to live a good life, and the big families are completely depriving them of the bright future they deserve."

Li Qi was speechless. The result was due to the little boy. Is this the additional damage caused by the shock wave?

Fance continued: "Those families who entrusted us have also lost their voices. The magician who sympathized with us found the detailed information of the Red Lady, as well as the remarks you made, the Duke. This made us finally sure that the Scarlet Lady is For the dawn that Ms. Ye said, you, the Duke, are the spokesperson of the dawn, and we are called the son of the dawn."

"Sympathize with your mage..."

Li Qi secretly sneered, it really is the Youxiang faction who is pushing you.

Fance felt Li Qi's suspicion, and said solemnly: "We also have comrades outside the Shadow City, absolutely reliable!"

All past "reliability" is an investment, and it is to sell you at an important moment.

Li Qi didn't continue this topic, and asked again: "But it spread like everyone in the city knew about it..."

Beshuu scratched his head: "Everyone is so excited, using mice to send messages to each other, we didn't expect it to be so fast."

The pit was dug too rough, so many traces were not covered up?

With a mentality of seeing everything, Li Qi asked the key question: "So, what do you want me, the Son of Dawn, to do?"

Everyone was silent, and after a while, Vance said: "Shouldn't the Duke arrange what to do?"

He straightened up, excruciatingly painful for a man covered in bandages and on crutches, but he did it.

Just listen to him say: "We believe that the duke is the son of the dawn, as long as the duke tells, the night will be willing to make any sacrifices to welcome the dawn."

Li Qi smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll turn around and sell you?"

The smile gradually froze, not only Vance, Liu Yin, Hongjiao, and Moshiwu all looked at him solemnly, as if they would go through fire and water as long as Li Qi said a word.

He scratched his head and asked casually, "I don't know the situation yet, what plan did you have?"

"Destroy the control tower!"

Vance said loudly: "This is the unfinished business of our ancestors!"

Li Qi sighed with pity: "I don't think you can do better than your ancestors."

"The Duke only needs to call on everyone to rise up and resist, and at least half of the people in Shadow City will respond!"

Liu Yin's gaze seemed to be looking down on hell: "We will find a chance before the magician kills us all!"

Fuck me, you are planning to use the dog sea... no, the SCV sea is full of people and the rhythm of the technological protoss base?
"I need time to think about it." Li Qi couldn't bear to face the bait thrown out by the Youxiang faction anymore.They represent the rebellious will of the Shadow City people. They are not afraid of sacrifice, but they have been reduced to puppets.

Vance asked bitterly: "Does the Duke want to weigh between us and Saint Gwentorine?"

Liu Yin said angrily: "That old woman just wants everyone to continue to be dogs!"

Li Qi remembered one thing: "Gwentoline is the former saint, who is the current saint? What is she doing?"

Fance coughed and laughed: "Where is the current saint, Gwentoline is the saint, but she is the most... incompetent and cowardly saint. Probably because the identity of the saint is too heavy to bear, He announced his resignation more than 20 years ago, but he is still calling the shots in the Shuguang Society."

"There are rumors of a new saint, but the believers have not sensed the oracle, and have never shown up. It is a lie fabricated by Gwentoline."

There are too many conflicting statements, forget it, I didn't have time to delve into these details for a while.

Li Qi said vaguely to Fan Si and the others: "I will give you an answer as soon as possible, don't give up hope."

After Li Qi left, Vance and the others were in a daze until Liuyin sobbed softly.

The sorceress said in a tearful voice, "The duke...doesn't trust us, is it because my tone is not good, did I mess it up?"

Beshuu sighed, "Perhaps the Duke still doesn't recognize himself as the Son of Dawn."

Fance handed the holy water and potion left by Li Qi to Liu Yin: "The Duke is still thinking about your injury. He must be the Son of Dawn, but he really needs time to think about it."

The strong man with the red horn yelled a few times, and Vance let out a bad breath, and laughed, "Yes! Even if there is no Son of Dawn, we can use our own blood to dye the dawn!"
