Chapter 760: Only the Banshee is special?
Chloe couldn't answer either of these questions, and the pages of her diary remained blank.
The chaos in the house gradually subsided and people dispersed.
Jules' letter had a great impact on Castel - Hughes sent a lot of people to try to investigate the secret history.
At the same time, he also planned to strengthen his ties with the Silent Temple. These White Crows might have declined in power, but their heritage had not been cut off, and they must have a more profound influence on the secrets of this world.
Hughes had previously promised to provide homes for the refugees in the north, but he had not made any promise to the Temple of Silence.
It seems we can try to deepen our cooperation. The secret history collected in the temple may be very valuable.
In addition, Hughes also changed the future battle plan.
Jules knows more than you imagine, and perhaps is more powerful than you imagine.
After all, the Holy See has ruled over half of the continent for several centuries and should not be underestimated.
Hughes took this war more seriously and was ready to give it his all.
The military production line is no longer just for arming Isabella's army. Now Hughes has issued a lord's order to expand the army in an all-round way.
The Imperial Truth no longer recruits mainly elite soldiers, but begins to recruit a large number of ordinary soldiers.
The new recruitment standards are much more relaxed, and there is no requirement to join the Imperial Truth, making it closer to the auxiliary army.
The formerly elite Imperial Truth followers were now dispersed, each Skitarii leading a squadron of recruits.
They were originally trained as low-ranking non-commissioned officers. Even the most basic Imperial Truth Crusaders had undergone complete command training and education far beyond that of ordinary soldiers.
In fact, most of the Skitarii have experience in engineering and were directly involved in the reconstruction of Blood Harbor. Many of them have also taught in schools, making them truly versatile.
Castel has always controlled the speed of external expansion, and the advantage it brings is these highly professional crusaders. When they are dispersed, they can not only lead the team in combat, but are also extremely effective in preaching and popularizing knowledge.
Castel's investment in education is unprecedented. Almost all of the Crusaders have completed their full-time education, and now is the time to reap the rewards.
Apart from this, the Banshee and the Deep Diver both belong to the Church of Poseidon, so this matter did not cause much stir.
Zeus thought the banshees would be shocked and there would be chaos or something, but in fact nothing happened.
The Banshees do have a deep hatred for the murlocs, but they really have no feelings for the Sea God.
First of all, the source of the information is from Jules, Castells's hostile camp, which makes the credibility of the entire statement less high.
Secondly.
The banshees do have oral legends about the fall of gods thousands of years ago.
But... this time span is too long.
Hughes had even discussed this with them, and the banshees generally didn't care much about this sort of thing. To them, it was like discovering the Neanderthals had been exterminated by Homo sapiens. They might sigh a bit, but any sense of belonging to the gods? That was long gone.
In fact, they are also the only ethnic group that has the knowledge of "God". Xius has discussed the word "God" with them.
The Banshee's understanding of God is similar to that of Zeus, and is almost a replica of the interpretation of God on Blue Star.
However, the perceptions of other people in this world are completely different. For example, when Xiaobu said "You are God", they just thought that he should be as powerful as the evil god, instead of longing for the protection and recognition of God like the banshee did at the beginning.
This is very interesting. The Church of the Sea God, the only one that believed in God, was expelled from the four major churches and then perished. The remaining churches don't even know what "God" is.
Yes, I don’t know.
Hughes specifically looked for Nora and Helena.
Nora is fine, after all, she is not that old. But Helena is a veteran [Buried], and although as a lady she has always avoided talking about her age, all signs indicate that she has lived for at least two hundred years.
She also had no understanding of gods at all, or rather, her understanding of gods was basically a general term for evil gods.
Xu Si attached great importance to this matter. He set up several research groups and allocated special funds to allow scholars to search for the truth.
With the support of Beatrice and the Temple of Silence, I think there should be some gains.
Apart from these, there is another point worth noting.
That's Xiaobu's thing.
Xiaobu was found by Nini in the underground water vein. Although Nini was ordered by Xiusi to go to the Rhine to collect intelligence, she had not actually set off yet.
She didn't find Little Bu near the Rhine.
On the contrary, the place where she found Xiaobu was very close to the Principality of Tis. It was not a coincidence that Nini appeared underground. She had dived underground following the seawater backflow plan.
The story begins not long ago.
Old Vance and his family moved from the North to Blood Harbor because they were recruiting carpenters like him.
Logically speaking, both Castel and Blood Harbor have completed basic industrialization. Carpenters are not unemployed, but have basically switched to using lathes to work.
But old Vance was still recruited, along with many other carpenters, because there is still an industry that is difficult to scale and industrialize.
That is transcendentally relevant.
The seawater inexplicably disappeared shortly after it poured back into the valley. After much discussion, the researchers at the Fire Moth team came up with a somewhat unique solution:
Simplify the ritual runes and carve them on wooden blocks, then scatter a large number of these wooden blocks into the river. Wait for them to disappear with the river water, and then use extraordinary rituals to track down the whereabouts of the wooden blocks.
Transcendental rituals are not precise, accurate industrial processes; rather, they are rather vague, with many parts open to judgment.
For example, for this piece of wood, the ritual circuit must be carved according to the different wood grain patterns. This is almost instinctive for carpenters, and carving according to the wood is a basic skill.
But it is extremely difficult for machines. Either they have to design a visual judgment solution that cannot be achieved on the blue planet, or let a creature like a machine spirit do it.
Dealing with machine spirits is much more difficult than dealing with carpenters, so Zeus directly recruited a large number of carpenters from the North.
It turned out that his approach was very effective.
After traveling around the Principality of Tis for several days, the researchers finally found the cause:
Almost all river channels have hidden entrances to underground rivers.
Maybe it's just a hole the size of a fist, or maybe just an inconspicuous cave, but these tiny cracks all lead to underground rivers.
Such underground rivers are extremely dense.
Zeus didn't know much about geology, but he felt that this number was not normal, so he sent a lot of banshees to explore the underground river.
They have the ability to sense water veins, which makes them perfect for this job.
Nini was one of them. She fished Xiaobu out while exploring the underground river.
"In other words, Xiaobu will go down the Rhine along the underground river, and you will go up along the underground river." Xius looked at Nini in front of him.
"An underground river runs directly from Blood Harbor to the Rhine!?"
