Chapter 455 Witch Hunt

"He is a nobleman and is protected by the demigod family. At the same time, because of his bloodline of the Light Elemental Maharaja, he has won the favor of the Sun Temple, which is well known. His wealth is far beyond your imagination. Countless noble families have received his favor. As long as he does not openly oppose the nobles, no nobles will touch him." Gerner said.

"He has killed the nobles." Su Yedao.

"Aristocrats can kill nobles." Eugene said slowly.

Su Ye was silent.

"For the Athenian nobles, the shock of killing Luo Long is no less than that of Socrates' god-killing." Gerna stared at Su Ye's eyes.

Su Ye didn't speak and fell into deep thought.

"Su Ye, as a nobleman, I can't say a lot. But I hope you give up the game in the next two days, and we can even give up with you together." Eugene said.

Su Ye was still silent.

Eugene said: "I have a good relationship with Thanos, the owner of the magic villa in the Giant Hills. I have also met his uncle, the famous irritable legend Aes. Aes is a very honest warrior. We met at a banquet. At that time, a friend of Aes asked him what the saddest thing he had. Aes who drank too much, shed tears."

Gerner remained silent.

Su Ye was surprised, but he didn't expect that Aas would cry in public.

Aas is one of the strongest legends in the world. Although his strategic ability is extremely poor and he does not understand military tactics, his personal strength is still above Mithyard and Dimes.

Heglis is known as the number one in God, while Aaz claims to be the number two in God.

In Greece, there were only two people who really defeated Aaz from the front.

One is Heglis and the other is Achilles.

However, Aaz was convinced by Heglis, but he never thought he had lost to Achilles, and believed that he was the Styx's body of the Styx.

Aas fought very crazy, even more crazy than the Nordic Berserkers.

Heglis even praised Aes for being the "Greece" and no one opposed it.

Such a madman actually cried at the cocktail party, which was incredible.

Eugene said slowly: "Uncle Aas said that the saddest thing in his life was that he failed to save his friend who was killed by the witch hunter, Herodotus."

"who?"

a bolt from the blue!

"Herodotus. You should have heard of his name at Plato Academy. Socrates' youngest student, a magical genius, created history in his twenties. But shortly after he was promoted to the Holy Land, he disappeared and was actually killed by a witch hunter." Eugene's voice was quite low.

Su Ye was shocked.

Herodotus was the father of history in ancient Greece. Although there were many absurd deeds in his "History" and were not rigorous enough in later generations, it was considered a historical book at that time.

No wonder I have only seen this name in history books of various subjects after coming to Greece. I rarely heard of his deeds. I didn't expect that he would be killed by a witch hunter.

If Herodotus is dead now, it also means that he has only established history and has not really written History.

In other words, the discipline of history will be broken by the loss of it and will need to be delayed for many years to be perfected.

No wonder Plato Academy's history textbooks are so chaotic and disorderly, they are like hodgepodges, and they are actually lacking in sorting out the father of history.

Su Ye could not believe that such a great sage from ancient Greece actually died like this.

Herodotus, among the ancient Greek celebrities, could definitely rank in the top ten, or even among the top five.

A great sage who could have opened up glory for mankind, made great contributions to mankind, and established immortal achievements for mankind, died like this.

"How dare the witch hunter kill Herodotus! Isn't there a counterattack in the magical world?" Su Ye asked.

Eugene and Gerner were silent.

After a while, Eugene said, "About the Witch Hunting Association, please ask the teachers of your academy. Because... in Greece, every demigod family and hero family are members of the Witch Hunting Association."

Su Ye was stunned for a moment, his whole body was cold.

A faintly realized a possibility.

The three of them never spoke again.

Until the carriage arrives at the Plato branch.

Su Ye returned to his residence in a daze, without going to the training ground, and without looking at his god-given talent.

After a long time, a knock on the door sounded, and a familiar tall, red-haired middle-aged man pushed the door open and entered.

"Su Ye, you..." The smile on Nideen's face suddenly froze.

He approached in confusion and looked at Su Ye under the moonlight.

Su Ye sat under the light white column and stared blankly at the sky.

"Teacher, can you tell me about the Witch Hunting Association?" Su Ye asked.

Nideon's face changed drastically.

"Where did you know the Witch Hunter? Did Gerner or Eugene tell you?"

"What kind of organization is the Witch Hunting Association?" Su Ye asked.

Nideen thought for a moment, turned around and closed the yard door, sat on the chair beside Su Ye, took out a set of wine utensils, mixed water into the wine pot, and poured two glasses of wine.

Nideen took a sip and put it down.

"This matter starts with Egypt. In ancient Egypt, only gods and the people of gods had powerful power, but mortals did not. Later, some Egyptians developed witchcraft, a kind of power that did not rely on gods. At the beginning, everyone only regarded witchcraft as a clever trick, but was nothing different from those artists."

"However, as witchcraft continues to develop and its power becomes stronger, the Egyptian royal family began to be vigilant. The reason is simple. Once the civilians mastered the power, they would inevitably pose a threat to their royal power. Therefore, the Egyptian royal family announced the ban on witches and persecuted all wizards. However, we know that Aristotle said that truth and progress always accompany justice and represent the ultimate goodness of mankind."

"Witchcraft suffered a devastating blow at the beginning, from light to dark. Some wizards continued to stay in Egypt, while a small number began to spread to other countries, Greece, Northern Europe, Persia, and other regions. After a period of time, the power of witchcraft became stronger and the number of wizards became more and more numerous."

"The Egyptian royal family became even more panicked, so they established an organization, the 'Witch Hunting Association'. The Egyptian royal family, which mastered divine power, used all means to attack wizards and hunted wizards. Not only that, they also secretly contacted the nobles of other countries and joined forces to eliminate wizards. However, other countries and wizards had no hatred, and the witchcraft power of other countries was very small, and no one cared about the Egyptian royal family."

"As mentioned earlier, truth and progress always accompany justice, representing the ultimate goodness of mankind. No matter how powerful the Egyptian royal family is, it cannot eliminate witchcraft. In the end, it was forced to give up confrontation and recruitment. Everyone thought that the Egyptian royal family had changed their past mistakes and chose progress and goodness."

"But a long time later, the Egyptians discovered that some of their witchcraft geniuses would always die for various reasons. After investigation, it was found that the witch hunting of the Egyptian royal family would always exist, but they would go from light to dark, kill all witchcraft geniuses and eliminate all hidden dangers that endanger the Egyptian royal family."

"Discovering this, the wise great wizards did not retaliate, but deeply analyzed the role of witchcraft and used rigorous evidence to show that if Egypt wants to survive forever, it must vigorously develop witchcraft. If Egypt abandons witchcraft, it will one day be destroyed by other countries. If witchcraft does not exist, the royal family will not be able to survive alone."

"You understand without me saying that the Egyptian royal family is short-sighted. They only have fear and defense in their eyes. They only want to stick to it, think that they are always right, cannot see the future and progress, and cannot predict changes. Therefore, the Egyptian royal family accepted it on the surface, but secretly launched witch hunting activities."

"Even though, a large number of great wizards left Egypt, went to Greece, to Rome, to Persia, and to Northern Europe. The earliest group of great wizards settled in Milidu, the eastern coast of the Aegean Sea, spreading witchcraft."

"You also know that witchcraft has all kinds of disadvantages. To put it bluntly, witchcraft is essentially "empirical power". Without solid theory, it cannot be a sound system. It can be said that witchcraft is the ability to take chances. Until a young philosopher began to learn witchcraft and reconstruct witchcraft with a philosophical perspective, and finally, based on witchcraft, create magic. That person is the father of philosophy and the father of magic, Thales."

Neden smiled slightly and said, "Those philosophers and magic laymen only think that Thales's greatest function is to say 'water is the source of all things', and think that he created philosophy and magic by luck, and that his credit is meditation, but you should know why Thales became the father of philosophy and magic, and even surpassed the great Socrates and Plato."

"Proof." Su Ye said an extremely simple word.

The teacher and student looked at each other and smiled.

Then, Nedon's face darkened.

"Telles established a basic magic system to unveil the essence of the world with 'provement'. A large number of philosophers and magicians participated in it, making philosophy and magic grow stronger and stronger. Magic, centered on Miledo, spread like wildfires on the grassland. It not only spread to Persia, but not only to Nordic Europe, but also back to Egypt, completely rebuilding the Egyptian witchcraft system."

"You should guess what happened later. The appearance of magic aroused the fear of all the nobles of various countries, except for Nordics. Those barbarians... Every time they talk about them, we were amused and crying. They were smart, they were not at all prepared for magic, and they used it when they were taken. They were stupid, but they were not stupid at all. They sent people to study Greek magicians, who were completely shameless, studied wildly, and did not reject them at all. Some Nordics even claimed that their spiritual ancestor was Greece, which greatly promoted the popularization of magic in Nordics."

Su Ye nodded and said, "I have heard of this. The Nordic God King Odin has also personally studied magic and supported the promotion of magic, believing that the power of magic can help Nordic fight against Ragnarok."

Nideen nodded slightly, and the light of wisdom flashed in his fake eyes.

"You also thought about what happened later. Because the magic was too powerful, the nobles were afraid. Greece, Rome and Persia began to learn from Egypt, establish secret witch hunting associations, and constantly hunted magic geniuses. There was no witch hunting association at the beginning of Nordic Europe, but a small number of people were too stupid and influenced by other nobles, and they also established witch hunting associations. However, major Nordic forces were clearing out witch hunting associations, unlike other countries, supporting witch hunting associations."

"So, Master Herodotus was indeed killed by a witch hunter?" Su Ye asked in a deep voice.

Nideen's body shook violently, his eyes turned red, he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
