Chapter 495: We scholars are best at analysis
Hunter blinked, but didn't show it on his face, but he found it funny in his heart.
He was just careless for a moment and lost his concentration. As a scholar, he was best at thinking and analyzing. As long as he thought it through carefully, there would be no problem.
Judging from how nervous the two of them are, there must be something quite shocking coming up, right?
It seems that they are worried about being provoked again.
But as long as you think it through ahead of time and have expectations in mind, you won’t be scared, and various embarrassing situations won’t occur.
What's ahead? It's not hard to guess.
Thinking, analyzing, and observing are the most important abilities for a scholar. Even though he is a prisoner now, Hunter has never let his mind go blank and has always been analyzing seriously.
First of all, the place they were going to was called "Castel Cathedral", which meant that this matter was most likely related to religion.
It is related to religion, and the two of them are "church defenders". This church should be the headquarters of the so-called "Imperial Truth".
Hunter had noticed one thing a long time ago: the Church of Imperial Truth had never appeared on the continent before, and he had never even heard of the name.
But it developed rapidly in a short period of time, and a large number of believers appeared inexplicably, and the unknown deserted island of Castel suddenly had many strange creatures.
As a scholar with a legitimate heritage, Hunter, although he has never set foot in the extraordinary, knows a lot about some secrets.
For example, the Church of Poseidon.
Scholars in the North have a way to deal with the problem of sunken memories. They interweave secret histories with normal records, and then use unique rhythms to weave them into songs, in order to engrave things that are destined to be forgotten into the soul.
Hunter had heard about the affairs of the Church of Poseidon. They had once been glorious, and the vast waters of the seven oceans were once their sphere of influence.
In recent times, the Church of Poseidon has suddenly disappeared.
You have to know that the Church of Poseidon was once one of the five major churches. It had unclear relations with the Pirate King and actually controlled the entire Storm Ocean. How could it disappear inexplicably like this?
If you calculate the time, the time when the Pirate King and the Church of Poseidon disappeared was exactly the time when Castel and the Imperial Truth rose!
Could it be such a coincidence? Hunter sneered in his heart.
The pirates had a bad reputation, so if they wanted to expand to the mainland, they had to change their name.
The Church of Poseidon was even banned by the four major churches. It can't even think of setting foot on land without changing its skin.
Sure enough, any truth cannot withstand careful analysis. After unraveling the clues, the truth about Castel has become clear.
The so-called Castel is just a name changed by pirates, and the so-called Imperial Truth is just a subordinate church of the Church of Poseidon.
The rapid development of the entire island is due to the strong support of the Church of Poseidon and the pirates' treasures, right?
Those jaw-dropping creations were also secretly influenced by the extraordinary power of the Church of Poseidon, right? Hunter couldn't help but relax a little. He couldn't figure out the principle of the airship, not because he was not knowledgeable enough, but because of the influence of the extraordinary. It was not a simple mechanical creation at all.
It's not Castel who is strong, but the Church of Poseidon and the pirates.
It's not that he is incapable, but that those creations cannot be analyzed using mechanical principles.
After thinking about this, the reason why the two crusaders were nervous became clear.
When he enters the church, he will probably see some things related to the Church of Poseidon. For example, the statue of Poseidon? Although the Church of Poseidon dare not publicize it, it will definitely make some small moves, secretly hiding some things that cannot be seen in the church. This is what they will do.
Hunter's face suddenly showed a trace of realization. No wonder the two crusaders couldn't even recite the church's teachings.
Oh, it’s not that I can’t say it, it’s that I don’t dare to say it, right?
If you were to tell a scholar like me about the teachings of the Church of Poseidon, I would probably be exposed on the spot.
Hunter smiled.
"I have to say, you two are smart people, but it's a pity that you met me."
The two Crusaders looked at each other, somewhat confused.
"Please rest assured, I know what's inside. Please don't underestimate the analytical ability of a scholar."
Hunter smiled and spoke.
"real?"
"Of course it's true. Look at me, I don't look crazy at all." Seeing that the two still looked a little suspicious, Hunter whispered, "Deep sea."
The two Crusaders gasped and looked at Hunter with admiration.
"hiss!"
"You, you can actually guess it?"
"As expected of a scholar from the North, we were shocked when we first saw him."
The two men sighed, and Hunter raised his head with satisfaction, enjoying the admiration and respect in their eyes.
But at this moment, he was a prisoner after all, so he had to be more or less humble and put on a show: "Fortunately, this is mainly because I am knowledgeable enough. As long as you learn more knowledge, you can also deduce the truth like me."
“That makes sense.”
"Knowledge is power."
The two nodded in agreement, then took out the holy book and began to flip through it.
Hunter was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard the phrase "knowledge is power".
Although this statement is rather simplistic and crude, the more I think about it, the more I feel that it goes straight to the point and makes a lot of sense.
Hunter pondered for a while and was about to discuss it with the two when he suddenly saw that they were looking at the Holy Scripture.
This made Hunter somewhat bored. He thought the two were also interested in knowledge and he was planning to give them some advice, but he didn't expect them to go back to the scriptures.
How much knowledge can the church's scriptures contain? They are just repetitive and ridiculous hymns, and only those ignorant believers will regard them as treasures.
He actually had a copy of Castel's holy book on him, which was given to him by the guards escorting him on the ship.
Thinking about it now, Hunter suddenly felt a little strange. Weren't the people who escorted him from the Secret Society? Why did the people from the Secret Society hold the Holy Book of the Imperial Truth? He didn't have time to read the Holy Book, but - what could the Holy Book of the Church say? It's not that he was arrogant. The scholar organization in the North was very famous, and even had some connection with the former Mechanics Society. In such an entire academic organization, there was basically no positive evaluation of the Church, which could only mean that the Holy Book of the Church was really not of high value.
Thinking of this, he felt a little sad.
There probably isn't any academic organization on this remote island of Castel, let alone any academic heritage. He might be the only scholar here.
With a long sigh, Hunter stood up with two Skitarii and followed the crowd towards the car door.
We have arrived.
