Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 472 A Brief History of Solomon’s First Empire

Hobert was still sorting out the information that had been released before, but both Cattleya and Emlyn felt that their money was worth their money, and they were surprised by the information that was usually difficult to hear.

Cattleya was a little better, she was still thinking quickly: "Please, please wait a moment, you mean that Tudor and Trunsoest also served Solomon? They, they were the ones who later became Tudor and Trunsoest of the Blood Emperor and the Night Emperor?”

"Hermit" Cattleya knew the titles and real names of the Four Emperors through some of her own channels and research, which is enough to prove that her knowledge accumulation is very rich compared to ordinary extraordinary people.

After all, even professors who specialize in these histories do not have such a rich knowledge reserve on these things.

But even with so much accumulation, Cattleya now feels that it is not enough.

Emlyn, on the other hand, felt that his mind was a little hard to turn around. He was chewing on the information released by the "Emperor", and he didn't even have the energy to ask questions.

Although the other members had known this before, today was the first time they heard the details of the demise of Solomon's First Empire, so they listened particularly carefully and had their own thoughts.

Klein behind the gray fog: Sure enough, the best way to dismantle the enemy is to start from within the enemy!

But Alger thought: What benefits did the Six Gods give Tudor and Trunsoest?Could it be to help them build their respective empires?

Audrey: It’s time to drive the True Creator back!
Forsi was already certain: the emperor of the Solomon Empire was the same person from beginning to end!Or a god!

"Little Sun" is a bit confused: According to Mr. Emperor and the others, the Seven Gods, no, the Six Gods, the Orthodox Church, have been fighting against evil gods and evil organizations.But if this is the case, why would the Six Gods allow the True Creator to become the state religion?
This time Audrey was too embarrassed to answer Ms. Hermit's question, so Hobert replied: "They will be the Blood Emperor and Night Emperor in the future."

Cattleya then asked: "Then what benefits did the Six Gods promise them? That made them betray Solomon?"

Klein and Alger also involuntarily changed their sitting positions, which was what they wanted to know.

After being reminded by Cattleya, Audrey realized that Hobert had not announced this information before.

Forsi also immediately understood: This is the key point of the description just now, haha, I almost missed it again.

"Logically speaking, you only have one chance to ask questions." Hobert smiled: "But I can answer your question as a welcome to the new members."

Emlyn was slightly startled, why did these words sound so familiar.

Cattleya smiled and said, "Thank you."

Hobert explained: "Tudor and Trunsoest were both Extraordinaries of the 'Lawyer' path at the beginning, that is, the 'Black Emperor' path.

"The six gods promised that after the death of Solomon, each of them would give them a Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristic among the extraordinary characteristics dropped from the Black Emperor."

Klein: So that’s it, that’s indeed enough motivation!But later on, neither of these two people seemed to have become the true gods of the "Black Emperor" path.

Alger nodded slightly: That's right, becoming a Sequence 1 is tempting enough.

Cattleya frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Sorry, I'm not questioning your information, but according to the reliable information I got, the Night Emperor is the true god of the 'Judge' path.

"I don't know what path the Blood Emperor is to the true god, but it's definitely not the 'Black Emperor' path.

"The Night Emperor's situation still jumped to the adjacent path, but what happened to the Blood Emperor?"

Hobert smiled and said, "Want to know?"

Cattleya nodded reflexively.

"Detailed information about the Blood Emperor is also worth 5000 pounds."

Klein behind the gray mist couldn't help but smile: Same method, same words, but I don't know if Ms. Hermit will be fooled.

Alger took a deep breath: "The Hermit" knows a lot about the history of the Fourth Age!If it weren't for participating in Tarot Club, my knowledge reserve would be less than one-third of hers!

Emlyn: The conversation just now sounds more familiar.

After all, Cattleya was more experienced and could keep her composure. She did not agree immediately, but thought about it for a while before saying: "Before answering, I must make sure that your intelligence source is reliable!"

"Don't worry about this, it's absolutely reliable."

"How do you prove it?"

Hobert smiled: "Well, I have to admit that your aggressive method has a certain effect."

He said seriously: "Because, my surname is Trunsoest. Yes, I am Trunsoest of the Night Emperor!"

Not only Cattleya was shocked by this answer, but others were also surprised.

Klein hugged his arms: This kid is hiding deep enough! The "Creator" is a descendant of the Night Emperor. Could it be that he can become the favored one of the "Creator" because he is a descendant of the Night Emperor?

Alger: He really does have a good background.

Audrey was not in a pretty mood: How much else was Hobert hiding?
Emlyn leaned back in his chair: No wonder I feel very close to him. It turns out that in the Fourth Age, our ancestors were allies.If we go by generation, I might be his grandpa or grandpa. Hey, the Vampires are a race with a long lifespan.

Forsi sighed in her heart: For the first time, I felt that the history of the Quaternary Epoch was so close to me.

But "Little Sun" is thinking: Mr. Emperor's life experience is similar to that of the City of Silver, and he looks like a "remnant of history".

Hobert spread his hands and asked Cattleya: "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

He has never taken his identity as a "descendant of Trunsoest" seriously, and he is not afraid of exposing his identity.

There was no one from the Righteous God Church in the Tarot Club, so Alger could only be regarded as a peripheral member of the Church of Storms. He also had the heart of a kid, so he didn't have to worry about them arresting him.

"Sorry!" Cattleya apologized generously: "I hope it didn't cause you any inconvenience."

This time she was convinced of Hobert's information. She guessed that the reason why the "Emperor" knew so much must be because he had read the family's classics.

Hobert smiled and said: "As long as you don't send me to the Orthodox Church, they especially like to capture the descendants of Trunsoest."

Audrey asked curiously: "Why do they particularly like to capture the descendants of Trunsoest?"

She said in her heart: If you make me angry again in the future, I will report you to the Church of the Goddess of the Night!
But Audrey only thought about it this way, because if she really did this, it would mean that she would betray the Tarot Society, and she would not do this.

"This is a secret belonging to the Trunsoest Empire." Hobert said: "Originally I didn't plan to explain it to you, but if you want to ask, it's worth 5000 pounds."

Klein suddenly understood: After "Emperor"'s group-buying sales model was cracked by "Justice" using crowdfunding, it is now starting pre-sales again!Moreover, the use of this trick of playing hard to get is too obvious.

Hobert brought the conversation back to the topic: "Let's continue with the issue of the Solomon Empire. You may have questions about why the Six Gods have not become the true creator and Solomon's wings have not yet become full, or simply said that Solomon has not yet become a god and has not gathered together. When there are many angel families, they join forces to deal with the true creator?"

"Little Sun" raised his neck, he had just thought about this problem.

Others also knew that the point was coming to the point, and began to look at the "Emperor" attentively.

“What I’m going to say next is one of the places where this issue has important value.” Hobert said: “I have only briefly mentioned it before, but it was very vague.

"At the beginning of the Fourth Age, there was a lot of conflict between the six gods. One of the roots of the conflict was the serious lack of trust between them.

“As for why there is a serious lack of trust, this is a historical issue left over from the Third Age and is not included in this answer.

"The second source of contradiction is the issue of adjacent paths. Why are the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom still in a hostile state? Because they are adjacent paths.

"Similarly, the God of War and the Goddess of the Night are still in a hostile state because they are also adjacent to each other!

"The Mother Goddess of the Earth and later the God of Steam and Machinery have no gods-level enemies in adjacent paths for the time being. Although some countries will resist these two beliefs, they have never had a church that is a mortal enemy.

"Even though the Church of the Mother Earth and the Church of Knowledge and Wisdom, who had previously accused each other, have a very bad relationship, they have not risen to the level of mortal enemies. This is precisely because their two gods are not adjacent to other gods."

Forsi was slightly surprised at first, and then sighed: So this is how the conflict between the churches comes about!This is what the extraordinary world really looks like!Before this, I had only seen the surface of this world.

Emlyn also had similar thoughts, although he still didn't quite understand what "adjacent pathways" meant.

At this time, "The World" suddenly asked in a hoarse voice: "I have a question about adjacent pathways. For example, there is a conflict between the Church of Storms and the Church of the Eternal Sun. This is understandable. After all, the pathways of both parties are interchangeable.

"If you switch to the opponent's path, it will be equivalent to compressing the opponent's 'magic potion space'.

"But when they reach the level of true gods, they have already become gods. Is there any meaning in the exchange? Why are there still such violent conflicts?
"Or is it that the churches on both sides have accumulated enough hatred to deepen the conflict between the gods and become hostile?"

Alger, Audrey and other members who were familiar with the knowledge of "Path Exchange" were slightly startled. They had thought of such a problem before, but they realized after being reminded by "The World" that this should also be a problem. very critical question.

Hobert smiled and said: "Mr. World's ability to discover this problem proves that his thinking is very sharp.

"As everyone thinks, this is a very critical issue, and it is the greatest contribution of the ancient sun god to the extraordinary world." But I can't tell you now. I will tell you when other issues are involved, but I can't go into details. , I can only give a rough estimate because its value is too high.

"If any member becomes a Sequence 2 Angel and still wants to strive for the throne, I can tell him the details for free."

Klein's eyes narrowed behind the gray fog: The ancient sun god's greatest contribution to the extraordinary world?
"Little Sun" also wants to know: What exactly is this contribution?
Then everyone realized almost at the same time that this issue had reached a level that no angel below was qualified to know.

but……

Everyone looked at the "Emperor": Why do you know this?
Hobert seemed to have read everyone's thoughts and smiled: "My situation is quite special.

"Let's go back to the topic about the Six Gods. I said before that the Six Gods joined forces because they couldn't stand the teachings of the Church of the True Creator.

“I must admit that this reason is the most insignificant factor for Liushen, or that it is a reason that can only become the slogan of the alliance, which does not explain anything.

"Actually, it's mainly because the power of the True Creator and the Solomon Empire camp has expanded rapidly, making the Six Gods feel threatened.

“Especially the family of angels who ostensibly serve Solomon and are closely connected to the true Creator.

"For example, among them are Adam and Amon, the kings of angels who are only one step away from the true gods. Because they are born with uniqueness, they are fully capable of fighting the true gods. Although they cannot win, they are also difficult to be defeated by the true gods. Get rid of it.

"There are many angels who have the hope of becoming gods, such as 'Mr. Door' who is only one ceremony away from the throne of God, and Medici also has the hope of becoming a god, and even Antigonus seems to have the hope of becoming a god. Hope, but He will always be a little bit worse.

"If one or two of them become gods, the True Creator camp will have enough strength to hunt down any god, and at the same time, have the strength to temporarily block the support between the six gods."

This was the answer that Klein really wanted to get. He took a deep breath: Sure enough, the game behind some seemingly complex problems is not actually that complicated.

Audrey remembered a famous saying of the Hall family: Those who unite themselves and their enemies are often more powerful enemies.

Cattleya lamented: The records of the Trunsoest family are too detailed!In some of the literature I read, when encountering similar problems, there would only be one or two vague descriptions, and the rest would be supplemented by my own guesses.

Forsi and other other members have already entered the stage of "listening to stories" and will sigh in their hearts: real history is more exciting than stories.

Everyone listened quietly as Hobert continued: "The first to feel threatened are the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, because the True Creator is also on the same path as them.

"So, the three gods with the deepest contradictions temporarily put aside their hatred and pointed their spearheads at the true Creator..."

Alger suddenly said: "Sorry, Mr. Emperor, I want to interrupt you.

"We have discussed the ability of the 'Shepherd' before, so if it is possible to become a 'Shepherd' at the level of a true god, it can be..."

He took a deep breath before saying: "...Can other gods be herded?"

Cattleya suddenly raised her head and her back felt cold: This, this question is too blasphemous!

Emlyn almost got up: pour holy water on him!Soak him in a vat full of holy water!Or drive a wooden nail through his heart and hang him up! How dare "The Hanged Man" have such an idea?
Forsi was only briefly surprised, but quickly calmed down. She was almost used to such remarks.

Derrick looked at Mr. Emperor, because of the existence of the elder "Shepherd", he also wanted to know the answer.

Audrey and Klein were already used to it, and even The Fool didn't think it was a tiger or wolf word, and still lamented that the idea of ​​"The Hanged Man" was very novel.

In fact, some of the information in Russell's diary that he saw this week gave Klein a vague answer. Russell once mentioned that the members of the "Twilight Hermits" were full of hostility towards the Solomon Empire and the True Creator. , the reason is that some members doubt that the true Creator has the ability to herd the gods, which is the greatest blasphemy against the gods.

Now that Klein heard Hobert's description, it made him think that whether it was blasphemous or not was secondary. The most fundamental reason was that the True Creator and those members were adjacent to each other.

Klein remembered that Russell had described in his previous diary that the main members of the "Twilight Hermits" were all from the "Sailor", "Songer" and "Reader" pathways.

The true gods corresponding to these three paths are the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom!This just fits the description of "Emperor".

Thinking of this, Klein immediately withdrew his attention, looked at the "Emperor", and waited for his answer.

Hobert thought about it for a while and then said: "I'm not familiar with the true Creator, so the following are all my guesses.

"Theoretically, it is possible to herd gods, but there must be many limitations, and it should even have a great negative impact on oneself. After all, the spiritual imprint of gods is not as easy to remove as ordinary Extraordinary.

"Otherwise, the real creator can kill all his powerful subordinates and then herd them. In this way, the real creator can become extremely powerful while effectively avoiding being betrayed by his subordinates.

"But the real creator didn't do this. It can be seen that the negative impact of grazing the gods must be very large, so big that the real creator would not dare to do so easily.

“In the future, if everyone becomes enemies with some demigods, they will understand how powerful the spiritual imprint at the god level is through the spiritual imprint at the demigod level.

"According to my guess, if you don't break up the uniqueness and Extraordinary characteristics of a fallen god, and choose to herd him, then the herded god should be easily resurrected.

"And the resurrected gods must be the mortal enemies of the true Creator!"

Cattleya nodded slightly: This conjecture is reasonable and well-founded. It is a rational analysis made by the "Emperor" based on the limited information available and using his own knowledge.In this regard, the extraordinary knowledge of the "Emperor" himself is beyond my imagination.

Alger frowned: In other words, the True Creator’s motive for attacking other gods is not to herd them!
Based on what he read in Russell's diary, Klein had already made a guess: There might be some way for the gods to obtain sufficient benefits or power from the gods in adjacent pathways!
At the same time, he thought of Kavitua's spiritual imprint. As the "Emperor" said, the spiritual imprint of a demigod is like this, let alone a god.

The other members were confused and thought of something, but they couldn't form a coherent idea. They could only make one thing clear to themselves: the gods in the adjacent paths were mortal enemies and would kill them if they had the chance.

Hobert said helplessly: "Let me just say, the in-depth intelligence about the Four Emperors will definitely lead to a lot of other information, just like this question.

"We've gone off track a few times, let's get back on track again."

The other members all smiled slightly, feeling that the information they had heard earlier was completely worth it.

"I just mentioned that the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom are adjacent to the True Creator, so they put aside their conflicts and jointly targeted the True Creator." Hobert said :
"At this time, the Solomon camp made a huge strategic mistake. In order to check the Dark Goddess and the God of War, they allowed the 'Pluto Emperor' to unify the Southern Continent and establish the Kingdom of Balam.

“The reason why it is said to be a strategic mistake is that, in my opinion, the Goddess of Night and the God of War are actually allies that the true Creator can win over, and they should not push all the six gods into their own hostile camp.

"Although this is a strategic mistake, I feel that I cannot evaluate the choice of the true creator because of this, because he suffered an unforgettable betrayal and may have lost trust in the goddess of the night and the god of war.

"Coupled with the influence of the 'Secret Prayer' path on the true Creator, his condition may sometimes not be very good, or he may associate other gods with the most depraved and darkest aspects."

Before anyone could ask questions, Hobert said: "I can only say this for the time being, as this involves another very valuable information.

“With the addition of the Night Goddess and the God of War, the Six Gods have basically unified the front.

“Between the camp of the True Creator and the camp of the other five gods, the Earth Mother God prefers to help the God of War.

"So, the six gods formed a coalition and began to fight against the true creator.

“The above is the main reason for the formation of the Six Gods Alliance, and there is also a secondary reason: to steal believers from the True Creator and the Solomon Empire.

"As for the role of believers, that is another question."

After Hobert finished speaking, the hall was quiet for a while, as everyone was digesting the information just now.

Klein, who had just started playing the role of Poseidon, thought: I have already noticed in the previous performance that there is a subtle connection between believers and gods. The last few words of the "Emperor" are equivalent to proving my feelings from the side.

Cattleya put her hands on the long bronze table: It turns out that the hostility and alliance between the gods are also due to such a simple stake!Haha, what am I thinking?Such an idea is blasphemous!
Alger pinched his chin: In other words, apart from the steady flow of financial and human contributions, there are other reasons why the Zhengshen Church develops believers?

Audrey sighed: It is indeed 5000 pounds level intelligence with very high integrity.

Forsi sighed: I seemed to have heard a "Brief History of the Fourth Age", no, it was "A Brief History of the Extraordinary World of the Fourth Age".

"Little Sun" was a little disappointed: it turned out that the gods did not fight against the evil gods for the sake of justice and kindness to the people.

After a fierce ideological struggle, Emlyn had to admit: the history of the extraordinary world of the Fourth Age is as tortuous and intriguing as the history of the vampires.

Hobert gave everyone enough time to react, and then said to everyone: "This is probably how Solomon's first empire perished.

"Let's talk about Solomon's Second Empire again!"

Everyone either looked excited or looked at the "Emperor" with a smile. In fact, the information just now made them very satisfied. They did not expect to hear relevant information about Solomon's Second Empire.

Hobert said: “When Solomon’s empire fell, Solomon also fell with it.

"But because of the special nature of His path, He was resurrected after a period of time and established Solomon's Second Empire!"

"The Fool" Klein almost jumped out of his chair: The two Solomon Empires were actually founded by the same person!
