Chapter 629 Investigation (1)

A shiny silver coin slipped into the bartender's cuff, and a story full of gunpowder slowly unfolded.

It turns out that in recent years, the human empire of Pelada and the elven empire of Alannorn have been at war, which has made the lives of the people of the two countries more and more difficult.

It was originally a common occurrence for two countries that were once allies to have elves live in the human empire, or humans live in the elven empire. However, since the alliance broke down, those human residents who were neighbors or friends, Deprived of forced deportation, the elven city that originally advocated freedom began to impose a comprehensive curfew and access control.

In such a tense environment, residents live in fear every day. Their only spiritual comfort is to pray to their gods and pray that their precious daily lives will not be destroyed.

The Forest Goddess is the native belief of Alan Norn, but the large-scale preaching of humans has also allowed the Illuminati to bloom everywhere. The tense relationship between the two countries has led Alan Norn to expel the human priests, but this does not mean that the beliefs in the hearts of the elves are not the same. Can be easily expelled.

But, I don’t know when, the belief also became a mistake!

A few months ago, a group of injured soldiers retreated from the front line and came to the military station outside Red Pine City to seek treatment. Among them were two soldiers who were also hit by poisonous arrows. The elf priest gave priority to treating the one who also believed in the Illuminati. Soldier, let the soldier next to you who believes in the forest goddess die.

After this incident spread, the whole city of Red Pine City was shocked. The elves who believed in the Forest Goddess came out of their homes one after another, holding hands on the street, and mourned for the dead soldier.

The more radical elves among them claimed that all elves who believed in the Illuminati were aliens and were not worthy of being called elves. They wanted to use force to force the city lord to execute the priest and all the elves who believed in the Illuminati.

Naturally, City Lord White would not foot the bill for the elves' outrage. Of course, he would not be able to foot the bill either - the treatment of the poisoned soldiers housed in the military depot and the daily beliefs of the wealthy class who believe in the Illuminati Religion all require the presence and presence of priests. support.

As a result, the conflict between the city defenders and the elves who believed in the Forest Goddess became increasingly intensified, becoming an unavoidable necessity, and the thieves' unions who took advantage of every opportunity also benefited a lot.

"Speaking of which, where was the original source of information about this incident? It was obviously an accident that happened at a military station outside the city, but no one had seen it with their own eyes. Wouldn't anyone doubt the authenticity of such a rumor that was made out of nothing?"

As if he had expected that the other party would ask this question, the bartender calmly took out a crystal ball that was the same size as the health ball that the old man in the park played with in the palm of his hand. Then, just like bartending, the bartender After shaking the crystal ball back and forth a little, a colorful image was projected from the inside of the crystal ball:

…

"Priest! Druid! Cough cough cough... whoever it is, please help me!"

…

"Pastor, please help me, cough! I... I feel like I can't breathe!"

…

"...That light is true light, illuminating all people living in the world! Life-based magic, dispel it!"

…

The image is neither too long nor too short. It is exactly the entire process from when the elf priest began to treat the first soldier to when the second soldier died completely. It can be said that seeing is believing.

"It seems that this is the first time for you, my guest, to see this kind of prop. This is called the Twin Crystal. It is a magic prop passed down from the great Akan. The male ball of one of the Twin Crystals can record what happened within a period of time, and in The female ball on the other side can play and record these images at the same time. What’s even more interesting is that the female balls in different pairs can also share images with each other, which can be said to be a very interesting little thing.”

"When this incident first happened, every tavern bought a female ball that played this video!"

The existence of the twin crystals does explain the method of spreading this incident, but the most fundamental problem still remains in the hands of the bartender——

Who was the first person to use Gemini Crystal to record this video?

Who is the person behind the mass dissemination of twin crystal balls that store images?

When he first asked the bartender like this, he just insisted that it was a clip that was accidentally recorded by a support staff. But after a gold coin slipped into the bartender's pocket, although he still said so, the bartender still kept quiet. He made a few gestures on the table.

Unsurprisingly, the words that were pieced together horizontally and vertically overlapped with the biggest beneficiary of this commotion——

Thieves Guild!
