Chapter 62: mother of the world
The Mixed-Blood Association was very lively today. Mellon looked out the bedroom window and saw a lot of people and carriages coming and going at the door of the apartment.
Some noisy conversations could be heard faintly.
But for the time being, he didn't have the mind to pay attention to what all of these represented.
After getting up from the bed, Mellon didn't put on a coat, and jumped out of the bed wearing a white shirt and trousers like underwear.
Then, he suddenly remembered something.
"Didn't I sleep on the desk? How did I get to the bed?"
"Anyone here?"
Meren was very alert to this, but looked down at the bottom of the bed, and found that the sack he had stuffed into the harvest had no signs of being passive, and the magic pocket in the inner pocket of his coat had always remained the same.
So he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's not for money, it's for sex?"
"Damn... I won't be molested by anyone, will I?"
He didn't feel anything unusual about his body, but he suddenly found that the little snake wrapped around his left hand had completely turned into a black-gold bracelet with a pure texture.
But because Meren didn't know the specific abilities of this snake, he didn't think much about it, thinking that it was the snake's own "change".
I really can't figure out what happened last night.
Merron could only sit at the desk a little bit nervously with the mentality of being taken advantage of and not being taken advantage of, and then absently opened one of the encyclopedias.
The attribute panel appeared, and he glanced at it and found nothing unexpected, so Meren focused his attention on the book itself.
The Encyclopedia of Wizards is written by an organization called the Council of Wizarding Education, which, according to the description, is affiliated with a place called the Ministry of Magic.
Mellen had heard the word Ministry of Magic several times before, including in previous dreams, but because he had a lot of things to do, he never understood it.
Mellen thinks this may be a "government department" that manages wizards.
After looking through the encyclopedia in detail, he found that it was indeed the case, but the record was a little different from what Merron thought.
[Ministry of Magic: Each country has its own Ministry of Magic, which is not affiliated with the secular regime. It can be regarded as the governing body for the management of wizards in the country. The minister is uniformly appointed by the International Council of Wizards. 】
…
"It should be the wizarding government, what is the International Council of Wizards and Wizards, maybe similar to the United Nations?"
Mellon turned to the corresponding page and found that it was generally true, but the power of the International Council of Wizards and Wizards seemed to be greater than that of the United Nations.
According to Encyclopedia, it seems that, with the exception of wizards in a few limited places in the world, all other wizards and the Ministry of Magic of the corresponding country are managed by this International Council of Wizards.
Considering that the Ministry of Magic appeared in the previous dream was the Northern Empire, Meren turned to the corresponding entry.
Then he discovered that this northern empire was not a member of the International Council of Wizards.
The wizards on their side are jointly governed by the noble council and the church.
"The difference between a loose alliance and a totalitarian empire?"
This thought flashed through Merron's mind, but it felt different.
It's a pity that the entry on this encyclopedia is only a brief introduction, there is nothing in-depth at all, and he has no way to learn more.
Turning to the entry corresponding to the truth believers, the above introduction is very intuitive.
[Truth believers: a group of cult organizations that practice violent preaching in the name of truth, believe in destiny and belong to the original truth religion. 】
…
[Original Truth Religion: Originated from the ancient Three Gods Religion, the core classics are the Primordial Holy Scripture Future Chapter. 】
…
Going to look for the ancient three gods again, Merron can't find this entry.
It may not be included, or it may be harmonized.
He didn't care much about it.
Although because of that dream, Melon felt that he might be involved with the group of truth believers, and even the so-called Child of Destiny might be related to him.
But it's still hard to be sure what the relationship is, and it's useless to speculate rashly.
Moreover, it seems that it is not a good thing to have a relationship with a group of cultists...
Relatively speaking, Meren is very interested in the two entries of gods and churches.
[Gods: refers to the sacred creatures in general, which are generally born from the devout beliefs of secular people. Every country, every nation, and even some primitive tribes believe in different gods. 】
This entry is relatively long, so there are some records below.
[In the Middle Ages, the gods were under the unified jurisdiction of the two major churches. After the Sun God Cult was annihilated by the Evernight Church, the gods affiliated to the Sun God Church were classified as the evil **** camp and were hunted frantically. 】
…
[And when the tide of magic faded and the Church of the Night fell apart due to the religious reform, some of the remaining gods also fell into a deep sleep, waiting for the believers to wake up. 】
…
[The job of the gods is to protect the believers from the monsters and other dangers. After the tides faded, the crisis of belief occurred frequently, and the power of the gods in various places was greatly weakened, but still...]
…
The gods in this world are relatively weak, but Merron did not expect that they would be so weak—to be managed by religion in turn?
As a traveler, it is not that Meren has not learned about the two major religions that once belonged to the hegemonic level in this world, namely the sun **** and the night.
In fact, the school he attended as a child was founded by the church, and it had a special theology class.
However, it may be because of the transcendent, or because it has been "harmonized" with many contents. He never knew that the two major churches could manage the gods in turn...
After flipping through the wizarding encyclopedia, Melon found that the records about the church were not much different from what he had in mind.
It's just that the encyclopedia emphasizes that the "sun god" and "night" they respectively believe in do not refer to two specific goals, but two concepts.
Or, two supernatural phenomena with different manifestations in the so-called magic tide.
"Everything seems to stem from the so-called magic tide."
This thought flashed through Merron's mind, but he flipped through the relevant pages and found that the book did not contain any esoteric information.
It's just that when the magic tide exists, the world is full of monsters and monsters, which is very dangerous.
But later, for "unknown" reasons, the magic tide disappeared, and the world was at peace.
Considering the dream he had before, Melon thought that it should have been artificially sealed.
And it seems that soon, this seal will be opened...
"Isn't this magic recovery?"
He made a quick judgment on this.
"For some reason, the tide of magic has faded, and some beings who can only survive in a high-magic environment have died out or fell asleep, and the two concepts believed in by the two major churches no longer exist, so the church's rule naturally collapsed. …”
"But, what is the so-called Fountain of Heaven?"
Mellen was very puzzled by this, and he searched the encyclopedia and did not find any relevant words.
Just by looking at the word kingdom of heaven, you can guess that this word has something to do with religion.
For example, the gods are located in the kingdom of heaven, heaven, and the happy place after death.
Related existences are angels, the Holy Spirit, etc.
Correspondingly, it is naturally hell.
But there is no entry for these two aspects on Wikipedia.
Mellen suspects this may still be the reason for the harmony.
Or is it a secret that cannot be made public?
"Maybe I should ask the teacher?"
"After all, in the dream, the one who protected me should be her. I think she must have something to do with the kingdom of heaven."
The appearance of this idea made Meren take out his book of secret words from his magic pocket.
Then he discovered that the other party had sent a bunch of messages to himself at some point.
The message basically said two things.
The first thing is that the murderer behind the incident last night and the previous two incidents was found, who was one of her "enemies".
The enemy's purpose for doing this is to retaliate against her, and the second is related to the half-blood wizard. The specific connection needs to be investigated.
She also claimed that the enemy is in the dark, and it is difficult to catch specific traces, but the main target of the enemy is herself, so there is a high probability of retaliation on her.
But this matter is uncertain. If the enemy is not confident that he can successfully retaliate against her, then it is likely to target Mellen.
Because the other party had already guessed that Mellon was her apprentice.
Therefore, Mrs. Chelsea told Mellen to be vigilant for the next period of time, and to focus on her own safety. It would not be too late to "jump" after she found the murderer.
The second thing involved Jim's dad.
Mrs Chelsea claimed that Papa Jim was bewitched by her nemesis with "the power of the devil", which is why he behaved so strangely.
Now that she'd removed this bewitching power, she told Merron not to worry about his friend Arthur getting hurt again.
This devil should have something to do with hell, right?
Merron's mind moved when he saw this, so he raised his pen and asked www.wuxiaspot.com what is the devil? "
He thought that this query would take a long time to reply.
After all, what happened last night will definitely keep the teacher very busy.
Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to have "set" his message as "important message". As soon as Merron finished asking here, there was a response there.
"It is a kind of high-ranking life, which is extremely difficult to deal with among the monsters."
Seeing that she was "online", Merron hurriedly asked again: "Did the strange thing originate from the magic tide? Where did the magic tide come from?"
"A place called hell."
The other party responded.
When Merron saw this, he wanted to ask if there was another place called Heaven, but Mrs. Chelsea seemed to have a good heart and mentioned the question he wanted to ask.
"It corresponds to the kingdom of heaven."
"Heaven?"
"The Kingdom of Heaven, also known as the Kingdom of Clouds, is the birthplace of the Holy Spirit, and the original founders of the two major churches are the Holy Spirits."
Mrs. Chelsea replied: "I told you before that the first-generation wizards were known as saints walking on earth. This title corresponds to the Holy Spirit in the kingdom of heaven."
"The Church is of the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit is of Heaven, so..."
After thinking for a moment, Mellon asked, "Where did the kingdom of heaven come from?"
"It is said that the kingdom of heaven is created by a mysterious substance called the Fountain of Heaven."
The rich woman is not a riddle person, so the answer appeared smoothly in Mellen's eyes.
But he felt more and more confused.
"Because of the hegemony of the two major churches, the Fountain of Heaven is called by the wizards the origin of all things, the ultimate destination of the soul, the breath of life, or the mother of the world."
