To Four Thousand Years Later
v4 Chapter 28: francesco's ambition
That's right, he was indeed assassinated, and even actually killed once—but this didn't make Francesco huddle in a corner with fear.
His outstanding calmness and wisdom made him a Red Priest of the Order of the Rose at a young age.
After all, he is a psychic scholar affiliated to the Order of the Rose, and he has seen a lot of turbulent events.
He tried to put his soul in the gem for a short time, tried to consume the flesh and blood of the "Moon Winger", tried to translate and study taboo and mysterious knowledge; even under the guidance of his mentor, he tried. Francesco has a high experience bonus in fighting accidents. He deeply understands the art of fighting back - when a boxer named "accident" hits you in the face without saying hello, what you have to do is not to close your eyes, curl up, and back away, but to block it with your hands. Take the blow, then punch him backhand.
Therefore, after receiving the miraculous grace of the "entity of truth" and being reborn, Francesco did not call the police, did not rescue the treasures and paintings and rare books in his collection, and did not organize his men to fight the fire or hunt down the assassins. He used psionic vision to scout around to see if anyone was still watching him. Francesco is almost certain. That's the Assassins, or at least one of the gang of Assassins.
Because Francesco cannot guarantee that there is only one assassin. Although he was successfully reborn without being purified, there is no guarantee that the assassin is not an Anglican. Francesco did not hesitate to quickly consume his psychic energy to the critical value, making him lose himself from the opponent's psychic vision. image of. Then he avoided the other party's direct line of sight, and quickly ran around the whole house, not afraid of the raging fire at all, carefully and earnestly watching what things were moved and what things were stolen.
His most important psionic master's handbook and the rose cross emblem have not been touched. And his famous paintings, jewelry, and books have all been turned over, his basement mechanism has not been found, and the interlayer between the bed boards where he stored his fingers and armpits has not been opened. The only thing that disappeared was the transaction receipt between him and a master of the order in the Teutonic Kingdom. According to the agreement, the other party will provide him with two tons of high-quality ale, one ton of Qujia wheat, and a large amount of saponin dye. And he will provide the other party with a large number of young slaves... Of course, it is Dark Francesco de Pazzi. Even if someone really took him to court for "smuggling" documents. The end result is nothing more than another Pazzi's enemy jumping out of the grass.
If the people of the "Pazzi" family are afraid of causing trouble, they are not "crazy" After all, there are more than one family staring at the location of the Medici's house. Of course they could kill the Pazzi family, but the price would be that they died too. The conditions for the birth of a moon-singer are relatively harsh—you need to swallow the flesh and blood of other moon-singers, have the most basic ability to leave the body of the soul, and not be too weak in psychic power. And most importantly, exposure to forbidden knowledge of the "entity of truth".
What is the most plastic strange creature? Undoubtedly, there is only one answer.
That's what comes from other people's minds. The Political Guild wants to pursue the "seed of truth" deep in everyone's heart, from which there are countless kinds of truth entities.
So far, the Order of the Rose is the only mysterious association that can actively develop psionic abilities in batches. As long as any ordinary person touches any one of the "twenty-eight truths", after their rationality is restored, a psychic brilliance will sprout from their consciousness. They do not need to learn or experiment, but they only need to look at the moon when it is full, and they can get revelations of truth entities and hidden knowledge that they have never touched. The experience intoxicates them. They were able to join the Order of the Rose because they were pursuing the truth. But here they can easily obtain the truth that they have been searching for for several years, but the price is only a temporary loss of rationality—after half a day, they can slowly recover. This is nothing more than getting drunk once a month, and it's not a big deal. At the beginning, some people doubted whether the rate of irrationality would increase month by month, but now that ten years have passed, it has not been since the completion of the Great Secret Ritual ten years ago. The twenty-eight psionic masters turned into aspects of truth, becoming almost godlike existences.
They can answer almost all questions in the world, and the most amazing thing is that the answers are not the same, but they are always correct.
The reason is that it is almost divine. because there are five
God Amon defeated them easily with one against five. However, the psychic energy on the side of truth can be transmitted to each other—under the suppression of five times the psychic energy, even the sun **** Amon was injured by them, and thus escaped from A Mao Yuji safely. After that, the people of the Order of the Rosary understood the secret. That being the case, there must be at least one **** behind the Anglican Church that can prevent their rebirth and rebirth, and can also grant spiritual power to mortals through simple rituals; ", maybe it is also a phase in essence. After that, the Order of the Rose Order suddenly became more careful in its actions, and began to hide itself. The simplest hiding method is to let all Moon Wingers start to join other psionic knots to scatter saints. Guild attention.
But to other psykers, especially the Silver Blood Hunters of the Anglican Church, psykers are simply like lights in the dark...so the master's research is to create a batch of psychics that cannot be seen by psychics. Soldiers who have discovered, but also have the agility and power beyond ordinary humans.
As for the real identity of the master, Francesco didn't care. Since such a profitable and targeted research will be carried out, his real identity is either a great nobleman of the Teutonic Kingdom or a member of the royal family, or a high-ranking military official.
If it were other rose believers, maybe they would reprimand the master "this is meaningless research, which runs counter to the truth." But Francesco doesn't care about that, for him, and for him. In this world, only the countless "stairs" between people really exist - infinite climbing is the whole of life. As for war, truth, art, even money and fame are "relatively useless things" that can be discarded.
In this life, energy is very limited. It is impossible for human beings to have ten times more time for nothing, and no one can achieve true omnipotence.
Francesco's goal is very clear - all his life, he just needs to do things well.
He wanted to be the Grand Duke of Sardinia.
Even, King of Sardinia.
