Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 136 Background
Arriving at the director's office, Luke first walked to the window to see what was happening outside.
Caesar thanked her: "I know that with my qualifications and abilities, I am far from qualified to be the chief of the Central City Police Department. This is all because of Mrs. Michel's influence. She must have done this because of you...
Thank you, Miss Qingkong. I will definitely live up to your expectations of me and I will work with you to protect this city."
After Luke found nothing unusual outside, he turned to Caesar and said, "No, your promotion has nothing to do with me, just like I don't think I have anything to do with you. It was Madam Michel who wanted to place someone of her own here. Her choice of you may not necessarily be a good thing for you."
"I understand. I know that Raging Wave City is going through a great change these days. You don't want me to get involved in this danger. Thank you for your concern for me.
But as sheriff, I am prepared to sacrifice my life for this city."
Luke admired Caesar's ability to interpret.
"Okay, it's your choice . Let's talk about the missing persons cases. Are you sure these cases are related to the Abyss Temple?"
"Yes, yes, please take a seat..." In front of Qingkong, Caesar did not behave like a police chief at all. He quickly picked up the mess on the table and
I found the recent missing persons case files in the file: "Ms. Qingkong, these are the missing persons cases that occurred in the central city area in the past twenty days, a total of seven people...
Two other sheriffs have died investigating these cases, and here are the scene notes and autopsy reports.”
Luke flipped through the files.
Based on experience, it can be basically confirmed that these are all related to the Abyss Temple.
The secret arts originated from ancient sacrifices, which involved human sacrifice and blood sacrifice. Through these methods, the ancestors were able to create many powerful mysterious props and secret arts.
Nowadays, some primitive tribes still continue to practice human sacrifice and blood sacrifice. In the mainstream world, formal occult research does not allow such inhumane occult experiments to exist.
But just as every other discipline has a dark side, so too do mystics have those who breach the bottom line of conscience.
The Abyss Temple strongly encourages its Abyss Mages to actively study the sacrificial materials of their ancestors and gain power from the secret words through methods similar to blood sacrifice.
In the competition among various parties in Nutao City a few days ago, the existence of the Abyss Temple was somewhat ignored.
The abyss mages began their evil secret arts again.
There were seven missing persons found in the central urban area alone, if those who were not found and the missing persons in other urban areas were counted.
It is hard to imagine how many people have fallen victim to the Abyss Temple.
After Luke finished reading all the files, he said to Caesar, "Dean Wilred said you encountered some difficulties here. I can't help so leave the investigation of the Abyss Temple to me.
I'll let you know when there's news.
goodbye!"
"Good-bye...goodbye..." Caesar was a little reluctant.
But the elf had already jumped out of the window in his sight, and then the sound of the steam locomotive quickly faded away.
…
During the day, Luke was in his inspector's office, sorting out the story of the Abyss Temple in the City of Rage through the information on his mobile phone.
According to the normal timeline.
Bruce Ban obtained the Book of Disaster and released the power of the abyss in the Book of Disaster through self-study, thus causing a disaster at Oulu College.
The official plot begins five years after the Anno game.
By then, the characters of early players have been developed and are capable of delving into the overall plot of the game world.
The version update has officially brought the gaming world into a period of turbulence.
Various forces gradually come to the fore and characters of all kinds appear on the stage.
The Temple of the Abyss is one of the many powerful forces. Their tentacles are spread all over the world, but their headquarters is hidden in the Tedega Hills.
The Tedegar Hills were the fiefdom of a Celtic duke.
It was because of the Celtic Duke's secret protection that this notorious occult group was able to grow and prosper.
Duke Celtic is the leader of the barbarians living in the Tedega Hills and one of the five great dukes of the Golden Shield Empire. Duke Celtic's barbarian army has always been a military force that the empire relies on.
With the advent of a new era and the explosion of various technologies, the barbarians with invincible physical strength are also facing many challenges. Coupled with the suppression of the old aristocratic forces by the royal family, the Celtic Duke is no longer as glorious as before.
This deepened the Celtic Duke's resentment towards the Empire and his hatred towards emerging technologies and new nobles. Therefore, the Celtic Duke was an extreme conservative in the Blade Brotherhood, and the entire Tedega Hills became more closed from its previous closed state.
However, the barbarians' natural strength has lost its superiority in the face of new technologies, which is a fact that cannot be ignored. In order to improve the barbarians' military strength, the Celtic Duke, who rejects emerging technologies, chooses ancient secrets.
The barbarians are not averse to human sacrifice and blood sacrifice, so the Tedega Hills and the Abyss Temple cater to each other and become symbiotic.
Therefore, behind this group of Abyss Mages in the City of Rage is the Abyss Temple, behind the Abyss Temple is the Celtic Duke, and behind the Celtic Duke are the conservatives of the Blade Brotherhood.
And within the Brotherhood of the Blade, conservatives have a strong influence.
During the game, the actions of the Abyss Temple in the City of Rage angered the new nobles. The Golden Shield Empire demanded that the Celtic Duke hand over part of the rights of the autonomous region to the Empire, and the Celtic Duke, who had long been dissatisfied with the Empire, chose to rebel.
The accumulated resentment between the Golden Shield royal family and the old aristocracy broke out, and more and more old aristocrats raised the banner of overthrowing the royal family and restoring the old system.
Civil wars broke out everywhere, and foreign enemies were also waiting for an opportunity to invade.
The Golden Shield Empire has entered the most dangerous moment in its history.
In the process of organizing the plot of the Abyss Temple, Luke was actually going through the entire historical plot of the last five years of the Anno game.
It seemed that everything was caused by the Book of Disaster, and then broke out because of the fight to seize the Book of Disaster in the Abyss Temple.
It further solidified the reputation of the Book of Disaster.
But in fact, all the contradictions have already arisen. Even without the Book of Disaster, they will naturally erupt when the critical point of explosion is reached.
At this time, Luke had a stronger sense of mission.
Kill these Abyss Mages who have entered the City of Rage as soon as possible to prevent the civil war in the empire from breaking out prematurely.
After all, he was able to thrive in Nutao City because he was living off the eldest princess and relying on the power of the empire.
If the empire lost its prestige, the new nobles in Nutao City would immediately jump up and eat me alive.
In the end, with the help of the new nobles, Nutao City took advantage of the empire's lack of time to force the emperor to recognize its autonomy.
As an imperial spy, I must never let this history happen again.
Where is the Abyss Mage at this moment?
