Chapter 121 Can it pollute history in turn? !

Evil god?

What evil god? Wait, could it be the worker, Hughes? Hughes's expression became strange.

Thinking about it carefully, he seemed to have purified the Lord of Moths, and was regarded as an Outer God. What exactly is an Outer God? Xiu Si thought about it, and his face changed drastically: "What!? You have an evil god in your hands now? How can such a dangerous thing be left in the territory!"

"It's not dangerous, it's not dangerous." Chloe hurriedly explained. She began to regret telling this matter now. What if Hughes regretted it and drove them away?

"In fact, that is not an evil god. I don't know what went wrong with the summoning ritual, and an alien god was summoned out."

"Outer God?"

"Yes, I can't talk about the Outer Gods part. It would be polluting."

"Don't worry about the pollution. I have a way to solve it."

Chloe gritted her teeth and said, "I know you can solve the pollution, but if I tell you, I will be polluted too!"

"ah?"

"Knowledge will bring pollution. This pollution is not one-sided, but pollutes both sides. Otherwise, it will be used on the battlefield immediately."

Hughes blinked.

It seems to make sense.

If speaking out knowledge can pollute the other side, then the Fire Moths should not be in such a miserable state. Which lord would not welcome them? If they had preached two lessons of advanced mathematics on the spot, wouldn't the lord have been furious? How could they have ended up in such a miserable state now?

Hiss, wait, if speaking out knowledge can bring pollution, then wouldn’t teachers be the people most easily polluted?

Chloe glanced at Hughes and curled her lips. "You probably haven't come into contact with any esoteric knowledge yet. Most of the superficial knowledge will not cause pollution, but for deeper knowledge, if you don't understand the specific principles, or don't know the prerequisite knowledge, then you will be polluted when you hear it."

"And [Secret] is something that goes one step further. It is some fragments of history. We don't know the cause and effect, or even whether it is true. At the same time, it is not known to most people. This kind of knowledge will be polluted whether it is spoken or heard."

Esoteric Zeus suddenly thought of an extraordinary rank - the [Secret Keeper] of the Candlelight Society.

"Is [Secret Keeper] related to this?"

Chloe's eyes widened.

"You actually know this? Indeed, Secret Keepers usually have a large number of secrets. They can use the secrets as weapons and can directly use them to attack the enemy and contaminate the enemy. The strength of a Secret Keeper is directly linked to the number of secrets he has mastered."

"I see. Do you have a [Secret Keeper]?"

“Ahem!”

Chloe choked, and it took Hughes a few pats on her back for her to come to her senses.

"How could it be possible! Although we used to be from the same sect as the Candlelight Society, we separated long ago. And if we did, we wouldn't be wandering around everywhere!"

"In short, knowledge is extremely dangerous, especially the [secret] knowledge. Its spread means pollution and loss of control!"

"So what happens if you write it down?"

"It depends on the specific situation."

Chloe recalled: "If it is a less dangerous secret, such as one that is not too old, or has other historical materials to support it, and is more known to the world, even if it is said directly, the contamination will not be much."

"People usually choose to write this down. After writing it down on paper, it will gradually lose its polluting properties and become ordinary knowledge. Therefore, reading is a safer way to acquire knowledge than talking."

"But if it is a very dangerous secret, then it is completely different or even the opposite!"

"They have some kind of strange power. After this secret is written down, not only will the pollution not be eliminated, but it will even gradually deepen. At the same time, this dangerous secret must be rarely recorded. There are only a few historical materials that mention it. I mean the safe ones."

Chloe's eyes showed some fear.

"If these secrets were recorded, their contamination would even migrate to previously safe historical materials!"

Zeus' pupils dilated instantly.

It would be even more dangerous if dangerous secrets were recorded, and the historical materials related to them would also be polluted! ?

How is this possible? Wouldn't it be possible that not only would the world punish us for exploring science, but also for exploring history? What on earth had happened in this world? "It's not just that."

Chloe's face was serious.

"This polluted knowledge will also distort the relevant historical materials. In other words, even if you don't read these secrets, ordinary historical materials will be polluted and may not be correct."

"So writing down ancient secrets is a serious crime, and all churches punish this behavior extremely severely."

Hughes pursed his lips and said nothing.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This world is more dangerous and crazy than he imagined.

Not to mention actively contacting the extraordinary, even just looking at normal historical records will be contaminated, and history that was not contaminated in the past may not be safe now.

Hughes suddenly remembered Nora's words.

"Remain ignorant, that is the last mercy in this world."

Perhaps for mortals, ignorance is the greatest protection, and the cognitive barrier is the last line of defense.

The two were silent for a long time.

"You told me about the Church of Poseidon before"

"That is a secret, but it is relatively safe. First of all, it happened not too long ago, a thousand years ago. Secondly, it is known to almost everyone, and all extraordinary people are basically aware of it."

"Then, because the Church of Poseidon still exists and has not become a completely unprovable history, it can almost be considered the safest secret. Most churches have written records of this."

Hughes rubbed his chin, thinking carefully about Chloe's words.

The properties of the secret teachings once again exceeded his imagination. He originally thought that since it had purifying properties, he would not be afraid of the pollution brought by knowledge at all. But now it seems that he was a little naive.

The pollution of knowledge is actually bidirectional, or in other words, as long as knowledge is spread, it will be accompanied by pollution.

Fortunately, these terrible characteristics only exist in esoteric teachings, and they do not hinder scientific research and technological progress. Is that true? Esoteric teachings are also divided into dangerous and not-so-dangerous, so is knowledge the same? There is no problem now, but because he is exploring relatively safe parts, future knowledge may not be so safe.

And considering the idealistic nature of this world, will the manufacturing blueprints of nuclear bombs be radioactive? Will the huge battleships drive the workers crazy when they are manufacturing them? It is hard to say.

Hughes turned his head and looked at Chloe.

"So, you know the world is so dangerous, but you still choose to move forward?"

"Yes, that's why we call ourselves the Fire Moth."
