Chaos Crown

Chapter 329, The Mystery of Huimin

In the Kingdom, druids are also divided into many schools (ie associations), the most well-known of which is the association of the earth, the moon, and the stars. In addition, there are also some minor schools, such as wildfire, dreams, spores, and shepherds.

Among them, the Moon Society tends to be in the wilderness form (that is, transforming into beasts to fight), so the druids of the Moon Society like to transform into beasts to fight. They have an advantage over other druids when transformed into beasts. They can do more actions in the transformed state, and each attack has additional magic damage.

Halsin is a druid of the Moon Society. His strength probably barely broke through to the master level. Because of years of captivity and torture, Halsin's strength has dropped to the elite level. It may take a few years for him to recover. Thanks to his druid ability, Halsin survived his long captivity.

As if realizing that it would be easy to be criticized, Halsin still made his girlfriend change back to a human form—a female druid wearing leather armor, with long brown hair and a slightly plump figure. She and Halsin were both moderate druids. Boyfriend reunion.

Including Fina, there are still eight moderate Druids under Halsin's command who are still alive, seven of whom are willing to stay, and the only one who wants to leave does not want to leave the Sacred Forest. He just has a distant promise to fulfill and will return after it is completed.

The druids' dedication to the holy forest is evident.

Halsin pleaded with Aaron for this - he hoped that Aaron could not only give the druid travel expenses and resources, but also hope that Aaron would allow him to retain the qualification to return to the Sacred Forest of Hurek.

Aaron felt dumbfounded about this, he understood why the arch druid was easily seized by a foreign druid.

According to the research of authoritative scholars in Candlekeep, the druids' personalities can be roughly divided into: diplomats, gardeners, idealists, nurturers, natives, ancientists, fanatics, martyrs, and world-weary people. Halsin's personality tends to be diplomats and nurturers.

pretty good.

Aaron graciously agreed to Halsin's request, and told him that Sunset Leader would pay to renovate his entire sacred forest, develop this land into a nature reserve while protecting the natural environment, and rebuild the hot spring in the cave into a tourist attraction. After that, if there are guests, his organizations will get a share of the wealth.

Aaron assured Halsin that his development would not only not destroy the druid's sacred forest, but would also embody a model of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.

At the same time, Aaron also plans to build the Emerald Academy of Eight Winds Magic here.

Halsin, a fool, easily believed what Aaron said, or he had to believe it, after all, the situation was stronger than people.

After arranging most of the things, news came from the other side.

Nestia has led people to control the Huimin monastery.

"Go and have a look."

The divine brilliance in Aaron's eyes faded quickly, and he looked extremely tired. The battle with Lorgar had exhausted his strength, and the price of summoning the golden ring was not small.

But his harvest is also amazing. After using Draconian to kill Lorgar's projection, Aaron gained a lot of knowledge from the projection.

It's a pity that because Nurgle's power was not fully activated, Lorgar's projection escaped a little in the end.

Aaron couldn't help smiling at the thought.

It doesn't matter, Irmat has heard his request. Although the God of Suffering is skeptical, he still decides to go out in person. After all, the origin of the "ammunition bag" is too shocking. As a selfless god who protects infants and prevents them from going to the wall of the unbelievers, it is impossible for Irmat to sit idly by.

Donate [-] relief meals to the Ilmat Church next time, Aaron thought, although the honest and good people can deceive them, but he will not let them suffer, after all, what he does represents Su Lun.

This is Su Lun's wish!
The Huimin Monastery is located in a valley in the north of the center of the Hurek Forest. While it is extremely hidden, because the Huimin have all been transformed into existences similar to "speaking spirits", they neither need to eat nor carry out necessary production activities, which allows them to hide in the depths of the forest almost permanently.

As soon as they entered the portal, Aaron, Eleanor, and Maximian heard the familiar laughter of the great dragon Egil.

"Ahahahahahahahahaha~"

Egil has turned back into a human form at this time. Dalonglong is wearing one-piece black silk with long and short high-heeled boots, and is rolling with his face buried in a pile of gold and silver treasures. Her subordinate half-dragons and kobolds have collected all the treasures of the entire monastery, especially the shiny things, and piled them up for Dalonglong to enjoy.

"The holy fire is shining, the holy fire is shining, all my servants, meow meow meow~"

Egil was rolling among the piles of treasures. She spread her arms and saw Aaron's eyes lit up: "Oh! Servant, you are finally here? How is the situation in the sacred forest? Poor druids don't have any wealth. If you want to find wealth, there are more in the monastery."

"Don't worry! I've already searched all the valuables in the monastery for you!" Egil turned over and raised a pair of long boots wrapped in force field one-piece black silk. He stretched out his tongue and licked his lips. The back of his hand, also covered in long black silk gloves, rested on his chin. His amber eyes glowed, and he laughed triumphantly: "It's all mine, all this wealth belongs to us! For the sake of you being my servant, we will share half of it." la~"

"Allies, do you still remember how our high-level dragon covenant was signed?" Aaron said angrily: "We agreed that the distribution of wealth is 22%."

"Ah?" The smile quickly disappeared from Egil's face, and Da Longlong recalled it for a while, and found that it was indeed the case.

Dalong was in a hurry, she immediately jumped down from the pile of treasures, hung on Aaron's neck like a koala, pressed her one-piece black silk dress against Aaron, and said angrily, "No, although the covenant was signed like that, I also contributed to this war. How can you do this?"

"Why can't I do this? I just firmly fulfill our share of the promise in accordance with the covenant." Aaron was almost fell down by Egil's hanging. Dalonglong's arms clamped his neck like two vises, and his two plump black silk boots clamped Aaron's waist like a lady's crane, making the Son of Chaos painful and happy.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! I can give you half!" Egil wriggled on Aaron's body, bargaining.

One person and one dragon fought on the road for a while, and then bargained for the price based on the share ratio.

Miss Pastor has strange eyes.

Yeah, Aaron is a man and Egil is a dragon, but these two guys...

Seeing the way the big dragon hung on Aaron's body, Eleanor felt indescribably strange.

Where is the blame?

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed across the head of Miss Pastor: Isn't this scene the same as the scene between the druid and the brown bear just now?It's just that there is a man changing into a bear over there, and a dragon turning into a man here.

Aaron!You pervert!
After comparing the two scenes, Eleanor confirmed that Aaron is a pervert.

As your watcher, I am obliged to correct your strange interests and abnormal hobbies!
You wait.

Miss Pastor made up her mind, and she looked at Aaron with increasingly dangerous eyes: When I go back, I will tell your eccentricity to Su Lun, my lord, and let Him punish you severely!

…………

Entering the depths of the monastery, Aaron found himself in a gorgeous hall. The floor under his feet was made up of exquisite mosaic paintings. The surrounding walls were painted with brand-new murals. The snow-white ceiling showed a beautiful arc.

This is the Huimin Monastery.

Nestia, the elder sister of the Dark Essence, was already waiting here with a few people. When she saw Aaron and others coming, she glanced playfully at Egil, who was hanging on Aaron's body, and said with a coquettish smile, "Except for valuable things, the real wealth of Huimin should be in this big library."

Aaron nodded, and he signaled Egil to come down, looked at the endless bookshelf, and signaled that he needed some time to read.

"It's boring, servant, looking at everything will only hurt you." Egil casually took a small ivory statue of the Huimin demigod Talmud from a bookshelf and secretly stuffed it into her broad chest, thinking that this is mine, so I don't care about you, a cheapskate.

Hmph~ Miser, the money-losing seat will help you like this, when we go back, this seat will definitely blackmail you for a sum of money!

"It's really a magical race." Eleanor took out a golden cup with a permanent phantom of Huimin runes floating in the display cabinet of the library. Miss Priest marveled at the magical attainments of this race.

Nestia was not interested in Huimin's things at all. She saw Aaron let go of a book, so she stood beside Aaron with both swords and daggers, always vigilant about every move in the library. The magic tattoos on her body were swimming like life, and the sword song was ready to blurt out at any time.

Time passed bit by bit like this.

Aaron read the Huimin people's writings at an extremely fast speed. Relying on Tzeentch's power, he quickly understood the source of Huimin's beliefs and why Lorgar could easily corrupt the Huimin monastery.

As mentioned earlier, the creator of the Huimin, the "First Speaker" Talmud, was a legendary monk and part-time mage. He learned the mysteries of language and magic by studying ancient books in the monastery, thus connecting language and magic and creating the Huimin race.

After he showed other humans that they, too, could transform themselves into Huimin, he spent the rest of his life researching how to master the secret of immortality by strengthening his body in the Huimin language.

For decades, he studied the secrets of ascension to the gods but in vain. On his deathbed, Talmud, who was about to die physically, uttered the last mantra through his last words. This mantra made him perfect. He became the guardian of demigods and Huimin.

Influenced by him, the rest of the Huimin all followed Talmud’s example and wanted to ascend to the gods through the same method as Talmud. Although Talmud’s way of ascending to the gods was not perfect and could only become a demigod, the Huimin had seen the broad road created for them by their ancestors. They gradually formed an organization.

The second successful ascension to God is called "Librarian" Asara. She is Talmud's childhood friend and a firm follower of the original speaker. 20 years after Talmud ascended to the gods, Asara also ascended to the top of the demigod through his last words. He and his followers built a "sublime library" in the astral world to collect knowledge.

The third Huimin who successfully ascended to the gods is called "The Prophet" Cato. Feeling the "incompetence" of Asara, becoming a demigod, Cato gradually tends to control all knowledge by himself and refuses to disclose it. He is neither evil nor kind. He hides in the elemental plane of fire and thinks alone. When a believer finds him, he is willing to give enlightenment to the believer, but he may also get angry because his thinking is interrupted.

The fourth Huimin who ascended to the gods is called Selenek, and she is called a "skeptic". This Huimin is actually not interested in ascending the gods. What she loves is the increasingly solid hierarchical division, knowledge monopoly, strict religious system, and organizational power among Huimin over time. She likes to be a dictatorial leader and takes pleasure in it.

She quickly established a Huimin church similar to the devil class in Bator Hell, discussing the use of power with the lords of the Nine Hells every day, and planning new conspiracies.

Afterwards, several Hui people successfully ascended to the top as demigods. There were good demigods who opposed the existing strict class system, and there were also evil demigods who had a strong tendency to self-destruct.

However, Aaron has realized a problem.

The Huimin race is completely different from when Talmud was founded.

The original intention of Talmud to transform Huimin is to hope that human beings can break away from the limitation of life span. He hopes that through the transformation ceremony, mortals can better touch the origin of magic and spend their lives on more meaningful things. When he was still there, knowledge was open, rituals were fair, and Huimin were equal.

The second Ascendant had already begun to master knowledge, but she was still willing to share all knowledge with everyone until the githyanki destroyed the Exalted Library.

The third Huimin who ascended the gods began to monopolize knowledge. He no longer shared knowledge with mortals, but if mortals asked to peek into fate, he would not refuse, and would provide help within his ability.

Until the fourth Huimin who ascended to the gods, strict organization, powerful groups, cruel selection, and a symbol of power, the Huimin people began to gradually become hierarchical and have many rules. Huimin began to despise comfort and entertainment, and regarded drinking and watching circus performances as "meaningless".

This just gave Lorgar a chance, and the demon Primarch easily declared to these Huimin that he was a "half-god (the Primarch is indeed a semi-god)", and he found a new "road to the summit" for the Huimin.

Every Huimin was so eager to ascend to the gods that Lorgar easily corrupted the pious Bishop Mozgov, and through the bishop corrupted every member of the monastery until it spread to children.

Thinking of Druid's seizure of power, of Lorgar's corruption of the monastery, and of Reinsdorf and the state religion of the Human Empire, Aaron couldn't help sighing: The ultimate direction of any universal religion is Lorgar-Aurelion, and what these religions fear most is that their gods will really come to the world.

To some extent, the Word Bearers successfully predicted the truth of the 40K universe, and Lorgar is the answer.

Even the leaders themselves cannot resist the temptation.

Fortunately, the kingdom really has a god.

Thinking of this, he closed the book.

From the Huimin Book and Lorgar's memory, he has learned how to transform mortals into energy bodies, just like the dark apostle under Lorgar.

The moment he closed the book, Aaron's face suddenly changed, and he immediately signaled everyone to go out, and he wanted to be alone.

The people guarding the side were a little puzzled, but they followed his order and left.

The moment the library door closed, a giant shining with golden light descended in front of Aaron, his sacred face shrouded in endless miracles and light stared at Aaron.

"Now, you understand the essence of religion, Ra." The words of the Lord of Humanity are always so beautiful: "So do you understand why I want to destroy all the temples on Terra?"

"Your Majesty..." Aaron took a deep breath and tried to clear his mind: "I need your help!"
