Chapter 287 The Inquisition
On the first day that Monica taught students, the seats were full. Monica was so beautiful and the course was very attractive. Monica looked at the pairs of eyes in the audience, took a deep breath, and began to lecture. For the first time, she felt that she was needed by so many people. The colors in the academy also became more beautiful. Although they were not as beautiful as Xingluo, they were already very beautiful colors.
After a few days in a row, Monica started to hate this job less. She got paid and had energetic students asking her questions. When she was lecturing others, she could also sort out the relevant knowledge about enchantment, which allowed her to understand enchantment more deeply. It was a virtuous circle. Xingluo also sat in on Monica's lectures. Seeing that she was getting better and better, Xingluo finally felt relieved. Xingluo would pay special attention to every person who was possessed. After all, they had experienced pain, and Xingluo was afraid that they would not be able to get over it. However, after following them, she found that most people became much happier after being enchanted. It seemed that enchantment not only healed their physical defects, but also healed their emotional wounds. However, Xingluo felt that this matter was not that simple. He still needed a large number of experimental subjects. However, Xingluo also knew that it would be difficult for him to do it alone. Fortunately, there was Monica, and more enchanters would join in the future. As long as there were more subjects, the cause could be found. Xingluo was still very confident about this. After all, the development of many technologies depends on a large amount of data.
Inside the Inquisition, a gray-haired old man stood next to the torture rack, looking at the monster opposite him that looked like a human and a wolf, with sharp teeth and pale skin. A cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect to find these guys in the Fallen God Empire. Fortunately, this group of stupid alchemists retreated slowly and were discovered by the Knights Templar. These precious experimental subjects and experimental materials will be used by the Holy See of Light.
The Holy See of Light has never stopped its experiments on werewolves and vampires, and even has more information on this than anyone else. In addition, with the alchemy technology obtained from here, they can now artificially control blood werewolves and even give them intelligence.
A hint of fear flashed across the eyes of the blood werewolf. When he heard the old man speak, he trembled instinctively. It was obvious that he was afraid of the other party's methods. A hint of contempt flashed across the old man's eyes. This blood werewolf is now a powerful sky knight. If it can be mass-produced and even improve its strength, then the Holy See of Light will once again be above the royal power.
The old man couldn't help but flash a hint of excitement when he thought of this. As one of the three giants of the Inquisition, there were very few things that interested him anymore.
The old man naturally saw the power of the blood werewolves. If they could be mass-produced and endowed with wisdom, then who could stop the will of the Holy See of Light?
"How is your training against the blood werewolves going?" Xingluo looked at Mo and said.
"Not recently, Xingluo. Didn't the blood werewolves perish along with the abyss? Why do they still need training?" Mo looked at Xingluo with some confusion.
"How could such a powerful existence as the Blood Werewolf be destroyed so easily? It is estimated that some force has already obtained the technology to create Blood Werewolves. In the future, the continent will surely suffer a lot because of this." Xingluo said.
"What? Such a dangerous technology, if it is not controlled well, not only the manufacturer but the entire continent will be in great crisis." Mo said solemnly.
"But the number of vampires and werewolves is limited, so the threat should be controllable," Mo continued.
“The number is limited, but the strength of the Blood Werewolves should not be underestimated. If there were a few more Sky Knight-level Blood Werewolves, we would all be doomed.” Xingluo said.
Mo sighed and muttered to himself: "I hope that days like this will pass quickly. Fortunately, the Holy See of Light has moved into the Empire. They are the mortal enemy of vampires and werewolves."
Xingluo nodded imperceptibly, but his worries did not decrease much. Even he wanted to master this technology, let alone those ambitious people. However, Xingluo was a little confused. How could the Great Magic Era be destroyed? They already had such powerful technology, so how could it be gone just like that? Even the information passed down had to be pieced together, and it was impossible to restore the grand occasion at that time.
After bidding farewell to Mo, Xingluo had nothing to do. He had been busy these days and had not taken care of the religious affairs of the empire. He planned to find Tiffany to find out the situation. He personally opposed the Holy See of Light's missionary work in the empire, but since the imperial high-level officials and the Holy See of Light had signed an agreement, he could not stop it. However, Xingluo was prohibited from preaching in the entire territory. Of course, it was not an explicit prohibition, but an intentional promotion of the power of magic, so that Tiffany cleverly avoided this place, and even just built a church symbolically. Few people went there. The people in Xingluo's territory were either magicians or craftsmen. Even if there were some civilians, they were all grateful to the lord Xingluo in their hearts, not the illusory God of Light.
There are many lords like Xingluo, so although the Fallen God Empire is open and allows the Holy See of Light to enter, the religious power is developing slowly. However, the Holy See of Light is not a pushover. Since the Fallen God Empire is developing so slowly, it simply moved the main power of the religious trial to the Fallen God Empire. Xingluo did not expect this. The old and frail Pope is still a bit cunning.
Xingluo has been having a headache recently with the Inquisition. These guys are arresting people everywhere, without even going through the imperial laws. Instead, they take people directly to a dark interrogation room. When the imperial law enforcers arrive, the other party has been beaten beyond recognition and keeps muttering, "I am guilty, please God forgive me." The inquisitors hold the parchment of the other party's confession, and the empire can't say anything. This kind of thing has happened frequently recently. Some people, under the deterrent power of the Inquisition, simply believe in the God of Light.
Xingluo frowned as he looked at the intelligence. This group of people were simply lawless. When Xingluo was angry, he completely forgot that he was the highest-ranking cardinal in the Sunset Empire and that he was also a member of the Holy See of Light.
Naturally, Tiffany did not interfere too much in the actions of the Inquisition. Within the Holy See of Light, there were priests and bishops like them on one side, and the other was the Inquisition specifically targeting heretics. They acted independently and did not interfere with each other.
Although Xingluo was a cardinal, he had no right to interfere in the actions of the Inquisition. In fact, the director of the Inquisition in the Sunset Empire had a higher status than him and was very powerful. From any perspective, he could only watch those blasphemers in the Sunset Empire being arrested.
