From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life
Chapter 60 The Truth
Looking back on his experiences since entering the dungeon, Tian Yu finally pieced together the truth about the war.
Vivian once told herself that the machines in Silvermoon City that combined technology with elements appeared three years ago. Three years ago was also the starting point when John met the noble Ster in the southern volcano.
Ster found the so-called fragments of the summoning ritual in the volcanic ruins and brought them back to Silvermoon City, but so far Ster is still a noble who enjoys preferential treatment.
During his time working in the Silver Moon Duke's Palace, Tian Yu discovered that although he was a core figure in the pro-war faction, he did not have absolute say.
This means that there should be someone behind Ster, and that person is most likely the Lord of Silvermoon City. The most direct result caused by the players brought about by the summoning ceremony is the rapid development of Silvermoon City, which is the most urgent need of those at the top of power in this city.
But these are just the surface.
Going back further, three years ago, the strength of Silvermoon City was already dominant in the south. It is impossible for the city lord not to know the consequences of summoning, such as the destruction of the city and the attack of the Tower of Light. The city's strength alone is not enough for him to take such a big risk.
For the true superiors, what they fear most throughout the ages is the limit of life.
After the city lord's black thread melted away, his life also came to an abrupt end, so the real purpose of him taking the risk to start the summoning ceremony was to extend his life.
Three years ago, the life of the Lord of Silvermoon City was about to come to an end. He ordered Ster to go to the southern volcano to find clues for the summoning ceremony for him. Later in the summoning ceremony, he summoned not a demon, but a player. This player used mysterious means to extend the life of the Lord of Silvermoon City and brought technology and weapons.
The system and the gods of this world also noticed it, and then the God of Light gave a prophecy, and the system brought in players.
The Influence War in the player's mission was probably released to put an end to the bug that suddenly befell the player three years ago.
The system does not care whether the world is destroyed or not. It just wants to quickly conclude the story through new players and tasks, so as to recall all players.
So what about my mission?
Tian Yu thought of the recognition of the God of Light mentioned in the reward. This should be a deal and compromise. The ability of the God of Light can cause harm to the players. After discovering the truth, he became a buffer zone between the God of Light and the system.
It is roughly equivalent to the system sending a person to solve the troubles of the world looked after by the God of Light, and the God of Light makes it convenient for the system, and if it fails to accomplish the task, he will take the blame.
From this we can see that powerful beings such as the System and the God of Light cannot directly influence the world. They are subject to certain constraints, so apostles such as players, Knights of Light, and Prophets were born.
The story goes back to Silvermoon City. The Duke once told himself that he had already discovered the changes in the city lord. Does this mean that he did not know the truth about the summoning ceremony?
not necessarily.
The city lord sent Sester to carry out his mission, but he did not choose the Duke who was loyal to him and his brother, which just showed that he was wary of the Duke.
The Lord of Silver Moon City has no offspring of his own. After his death, the Duke will inherit the position of Lord of the City, but he obviously does not want to do so.
Apart from the selfishness of human nature, Tian Yu guessed that the two brothers might not be as friendly and respectful as they seemed on the surface.
Twenty years ago, the Duke led the city lord into battle to expand territory, but lost his wife after the war. Twenty years later, facing the impending war, the city lord maintained neutrality on the surface but secretly supported the pro-war faction headed by Ster.
The two brothers were probably separated long ago, and the final outcome ended with the city lord's death and the Duke's succession to the throne. It seemed that everything was inevitable, but the Duke was the one pushing behind it.
The Duke of Silver Moon knew the prophecy and knew that the Tower of Light sent Anna to find the devil. There was no reason for him not to know that the devil had a deep connection with the city lord.
On the surface, everything he did was for Silvermoon City, but the strange fire, the sudden appearance of Vivian, and Yoel leading the Silvermoon Knights to rescue the Duke in the City Lord's Mansion were all his doing.
Did he involve his own daughter in his plan?
Tian Yu remembered his hidden mission [The Request of the Duke of Silver Moon], but he still felt that something was wrong. If the Duke had already prepared to sacrifice Vivian, why did he ask him to help her?
I'm afraid the answer can only be known after meeting the Duke.
Tian Yu finally finished his brainstorming. It seemed that the war would not start, but he had not received any prompts so far, which meant that there were still key events that had not been triggered, perhaps it was the devil.
Standing up and walking out of the room, John handed over a piece of bread: "What should we do next?"
"The plan remains the same, but there are some changes." Tian Yu took a big bite of the bread.
......
When the moonflowers bloom in Silvermoon City, it should be Vivian's birthday.
This little flower will grow green leaves when it is tempered by frost and snow, as if this will make it bloom more brilliantly in the spring.
A funeral is taking place at the resting place of the nobles in the upper city.
Tian Yu stood outside the crowd, listening to the priest's eulogy. Duke Silver Moon had a solemn and sad face as he said goodbye to his only daughter.
After everyone laid flowers in front of the tombstone one by one, Tian Yu was the last one to go up. In her hand she held a bunch of moonflowers that she had just picked this morning. Vivian often said that she liked its scent the most.
Duke Silver Moon stood aside and greeted Tian Yu.
After the funeral, Tian Yu rode in the Duke's carriage for the first time.
"There will be no more war." The Duke closed his eyes with a tired look on his face. Now Tian Yu might have to call him the city lord.
Tian Yu nodded and replied: "Yes, the devil has now been expelled by the light of the God of Light, and I should return to the Tower of Light to report."
"Regarding Vivian, this was beyond my expectation. That day I had tacitly agreed to Yoel taking her back to the Seeking Knowledge Heights." The Duke explained to Tian Yu, "I don't want her to be tainted by the struggle."
Speaking of Vivian, Tian Yu felt sad again: "We never thought that Vivian would be a prophet."
"My Lord City Lord, excuse me for being so presumptuous." Tian Yu sat up straight and looked at Buck Yinyue beside him.
“Although everyone present that day saw the city lord die under the miracle of the God of Light, I have no way to prove that the devil’s affairs have been completely settled.” What Tian Yu wanted to express was that he lacked solid evidence.
Buck Silvermoon expressed his understanding after hearing this and said, "Perhaps you should present a detailed investigation result to the Tower of Light."
Tian Yu entered the City Lord's Mansion for the second time. The current City Lord generously allowed her to conduct a detailed investigation and submit the cause and effect of the matter to the Tower of Light. Exploring the site of the summoning ceremony was an important part of it.
