Chapter 2224: Chapter 742: Shocking! The Saint of the Crimson Castle Is Actually a Ruthless Butcher?

At that time, although both sides were adversaries, many Psychics had one or two vampire friends.

It can be said that, throughout history, the Circle Tower had always portrayed a rational, mysterious, and neutral image in human society. They rarely got involved in the politics of mortal realms, even adhering to a ’reclusive’ philosophy.

They worshipped transcendent power, pursued wisdom, and craved the truth; hence everyone in my memory had great poise.

Only when human society faced significant threats did those powerful and outstanding Psychics appear. For example, in every Black Disaster, the Circle Tower played a very important role. Do you remember Old Qin’s Necromancer friend, Old Baldwin?

He was once a member of the Circle Tower and even briefly served as the Tower Master of the Forming Energy Tower.

Back then, the Circle Tower wasn’t just the spellcaster organization of the Ceylan Kingdom. They recruited apprentices from across the human world, resulting in quite a commendable reputation. For a long time, the Circle Tower was known as ’Hidden Guardians’.

Hearing this, Murphy nodded his head and asked a very crucial question:

"So, when did the Circle Tower begin to step away from its reclusive lifestyle and truly intervene in the operations of mortal society on a large scale?"

"I’m not too sure. At least before I ’died’, they maintained a rather low-key conservative style. But based on the information I’ve gathered recently, it should have been after the fourth Black Disaster, which was a century ago."

Triss narrowed her eyes, glanced at Lena resting in the coffin, and said:

"It seems right after they initiated that ’Headmaster’!

They transitioned from a conservative yet wise hermit mage society to an organization with a clear goal, ruthless methods, and efficient results all within a short span of time. Their grand expansion also started at that time.

Although Lena didn’t explicitly say it, I suspect, behind the ten-year war and the fall of the old church, there was also deep involvement from the Circle Tower.

Of course, judging from Old Feinock’s descriptions, the internal corruption within the Avalon Church before its fall was already quite shocking.

If the Circle Tower truly as they claimed was ’guarding the human world’, then their move against the Avalon Church was a very rightful choice. After all, even the Grey Knights began to desecrate the Natural Holy Land in the Antani District, where the old church originated.

That faith organization deserved to be buried.

To be honest, based on my own past experiences, vampires detested the Avalon Church far more than the Circle Tower. For a long time, the Circle Tower wasn’t seen as a threatening organization.

And it was precisely a hundred years ago that Dusk was formed.

This timing is quite delicate, Murphy. I suspect that if we can see the ’Headmaster’, we might understand those details hidden in history.

Regarding the internal corruption of the Circle Tower..."

"We definitely have to go. The Headmaster is suspected to be an AI from the Golden Age. Lord Paryen mentioned that the core AI of the Eden District was also partially affected by the impact of the subspace, so it’s hard to say what stance that Headmaster holds?"

Murphy shook his head and said:

"An AI from the Golden Era has way too many tricks to disguise itself as mystical; forgive me, but I truly don’t think those hermits playing mind games can surpass such a digital being."

"What are you two even talking about! Why do I feel like I can understand each word, but when combined in your speech, it becomes so strange?"

Beside them, Phemys had been listening intently to the secrets of the Circle Tower, only to find herself more confused, especially when Murphy mentioned the Golden Era speculation, which rendered her completely puzzled.

This made Phemys feel excluded from the group, leaving her quite unhappy.

To be honest, since being revealed by Triss about her real age and true identity, she swiftly abandoned the poised and mature demeanor she carried when she first appeared, quickly aligning herself with the demeanor suitable for a young woman in her thirties, which was somewhat unrestrained.

Adel was about the same age as her, yet together they almost felt like "mother and daughter".

Murphy glanced at Phemys and then at Triss; Blood Vulture Duke nodded, so Murphy said to Phemys:

"While you were lost in different world dramas and fantasizing about being a mighty vampire monkey king, we discovered some secrets about the previous era and the original sin of the vampires.

It’s not that we’re withholding, it’s just that these answers might be a bit too stimulating for you, especially considering the blood-divine seed within you. It’s hard to say what impact this knowledge might have on you.

If you truly want to know, let Triss tell you some simple things first. I’ll observe your reaction; if it’s positive, I’ll share the rest with you.

Phemys, you must understand.

While you appear as a vampire, your inner nature is much more complex."

"I understand, I understand, a complex and mysterious background is often one of the hallmarks of a protagonist. I don’t feel hesitant or confused about it, especially after encountering adventure novels and those films about different world people. I’ve fully grasped that this is the burden I must bear for this turbulent life!"

Phemys proudly puffed up her flat chest and exclaimed:

"Tell me all those secrets now; I’m ready to accept everything! Furthermore, the seed within my body seems to be about to sprout..."
