Facing Fang Linyan's threat, the muscles on Quirrell's face twitched violently a few times, then he could only grit his teeth and said,
"The conflict between magic and theology has actually been deeply rooted and irreconcilable for a long time! The Roman Curia in the Middle Ages set off a 300-year-long witch hunting era at that time. It was started by Pope Nathan III of England and executed by Inquisitor Cramer. "
"In this dark moment, more than 700,000 people died under fire. Among these 700,000 victims, most of them were people who awakened their magic talent."
"In this tragic war, the turning point came from September 13, 1687. On that day, astrology warlocks observed a jaw-dropping astronomical phenomenon. The 9 planets of the solar system were arranged in a straight line — 9 stars aligned!"
"Since that day, the shackles on the magicians … have loosened! The mages before him, no matter how talented they were, had only mastered tricks that could only be called camouflage or magic tricks. "
"It was okay to deal with 2 or 3 ordinary people, but under the suppression of the church's Holy Knights and Inquisition, they were completely crushed! However, since that day, many magicians were pleasantly surprised to find that they could learn and cast higher-level and more powerful magic. They finally gained the power to protect themselves! "
"Of course, it was not only magicians who loosened the shackles, but also various creatures. They began to mutate one by one. Lizards began to mutate into dragons. Some ordinary people began to awaken the invisible genes in their bodies and turned into werewolves."
"At the same time, sub-planes attached to the main plane began to appear. The aura in the sub-planes was more abundant, so they were naturally occupied by those mutated magical creatures. Hogwarts was also built in such sub-planes. These sub-planes were also called secret realms, which belonged to the forbidden area of Muggles."
"The appearance of such a great figure like Nicole forced the Church to take a defensive position. Then, as the power of the Church increased, two hundred years ago, the Gods began to gather their last strength to counterattack. That day was called the Twilight of the Gods."
"Of course, after that battle, the gods fell one after another and finally disappeared completely. 50 years ago, the Ministry of Magic organized a secret operation to kill the last sleeping god. That day was called the Day of Death. "
Hearing this, Fang Linyan kicked him again, then he sneered,
"You said a lot of things that everyone knows, but you skimmed over the things that are not public. Do you think I'm a fool?"
This time, after Fang Linyan beat Quirrell violently, he pinched his left index finger and broke it with a crack, "Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
"It doesn't matter, you can slowly grind with me. 10 fingers are already broken, but don't you still have 10 toes?"
Fang Linyan's series of means was not blindly cruel. He wanted to torture the opponent to death, but because Quirrell would also gradually recover his MP over time.
Therefore, he was beating Quirrell's MP on the surface. in fact, in fact, he wanted to use this opportunity to continue to consume his MP! It was so that he didn't lose his MP.
As for Fang Linyan questioning him about avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial, in fact, Fang Linyan had never heard of what Quirrell said. The so-called brushing over it was all nonsense that he used to deceive the other party!
In short, there was nothing wrong with Fang Linyan's question, and Quirrell couldn't find any fault. Or even if he could find fault, he didn't dare to talk nonsense.
After suffering in front of Fang Linyan continuously, it was probably the first time Quirrell encountered such a ruthless and meticulous person. What was worse was that his life was still in the hands of others.
At this moment, Quirrell had also lost all hope as he hysterically yelled out, "Hahaha!
"I won't let you succeed! Bastard, you will kill me directly after asking what you want. Don't think about getting what you want from my mouth. "
Fang Linyan said faintly,
"Don't worry, I won't kill you. Besides, if you don't cooperate, you will die now. If you cooperate with me, at least you may not die. It depends on what you choose. "
Hearing Fang Linyan's words, the muscles on Quirrell's face kept twitching.
So after he was kicked a few more times, under Fang Linyan's intentional or unintentional questioning, Quirrell finally got the information Fang Linyan wanted to know.
It turned out that 5 or 6 years ago, when Quirrell was traveling around the world, he came to Madagascar. His original intention was to go to the secret realm here to find a creature called the bird of paradise, but he didn't expect to be invited by the Ministry of Magic to carry out an activity to wipe out the cult.
It turned out that the people of the Ministry of Magic found some clues. They said that there were residents here who started to hold related religious ceremonies in the name of PARTY at night. At this time, the hatred between magic and religion had already piled up millions of lives. It had long been irreconcilable.
Therefore, Quirrell directly participated in it. The process was needless to say. It was nothing more than killing and interrogating.
After he helped, he wanted to do his own thing, but he didn't expect that there was a follower who escaped at that time! Quirrell then chased after him. After all, not everyone was willing to die. This follower still revealed a lot of things to him.
Quirrell had to know that the root of the rise of their religion this time was that an olive tree next to the town suddenly manifested! After the rain, a rainbow would appear on the olive tree. Anyone who came to pray devoutly under the tree would receive God's grace.
Of course, this olive tree had long been cut down and burned at this time.
However, this guy called Chagula that Quirrell had captured was actually a trusted aide of the Pope of the Goddess Sect, which had been established at the last moment. Therefore, he knew a huge secret. ,
It turned out that just under the olive tree, there was actually an underground karst cave. There was a secret church in the karst cave. The olive tree could manifest because its roots spread to the vicinity of the holy statue in the karst cave.
This Pope named Bagola was originally a shepherd, but he mistakenly entered a cave in the mountain in order to find a lost female goat.
This cave was deep and winding with many forks. After Bagola got lost in it, he actually found an underground river by accident. Finally, he encountered the holy statue, so he built a secret church here, which was also the holy place in Bagola's mouth.
After hearing about this, Quirrell forced the poor Chagula to take him to the belly of the mountain. Of course, Quirrell found the secret church, then destroyed everything there, and he saw a statue of a god there.
This statue was surprisingly similar to the illusion of Athena that appeared behind Fang Linyan!
This was also the reason why Quirrell could say that his name was God Ergon.
Not only that, Chagula also told Quirrell that there was originally a large shield on the statue of the god, but for some reason, it disappeared when he went there that day.
Hearing this, Fang Linyan could almost conclude that this large shield should be the Divine Shield Aiguisi he was looking for!
At this point, Quirrell hung his head dejectedly and said, "That's right.
"I really didn't mean to hide anything, but I'm afraid that you will teach me a lesson after telling this experience. After all, you are a god's chosen one."
Fang Linyan just made a gesture expressionlessly, motioning Quirrell to continue.
After destroying the secret church, Quirrell was a cautious person. He was also afraid of being retaliated by fanatics, so he also asked many senior magicians, but the answer he got was the same. That was, all the gods had been completely destroyed.
Those who answered this question included the Astrologers, the Prophet, Dumbledore, and many other powerhouses in the magic world.
One person might make a mistake, but it was impossible for many big shots to make a mistake at the same time.
As for the religious revival that would still occur, that was the aftermath of the destruction of the gods.
As the saying goes, a centipede dies but never falls down. After all, gods were special life forms that could easily exist for thousands of years. Even if it was a human, after suffering from some irreversible chronic diseases, the process of death could take as long as a few years.
What was still fresh in Quirrell's memory was Dumbledore's answer to him at that time. The 2 were talking about this topic in the forest at that time, then Dumbledore's gaze stopped on a large tree stump next to him.
"Quirrell, do you think this tree is dead?"
After this large tree stump was cut down, its diameter even reached 1.5 meters, so one could still vaguely imagine its lush elegance when it stood in the forest.
Quirrell said straightforwardly,
"There is no doubt, Principal, it is completely finished."
Dumbledore nodded approvingly, then led Quirrell to the front. Some new buds could be seen growing near the tree stump,
"Yes, child, it is indeed finished, but its tenacious vitality will still try to make some resistance. These buds are the embodiment of its final stubbornness."
Quirrell was a little confused. He didn't know why Dumbledore would talk about this topic. Fortunately, Dumbledore's next sentence made Quirrell suddenly understand.
"These buds growing around the tree stump are similar to some religious activities that will still occur after the fall of the gods."
"According to our research, after the fall of the gods, some of the divine artifacts they refined can still continue to persist and be active, and some of the stubborn obsessions of the gods can still continue to materialize in the world. But these are all trees without roots, water without a source. They are like soap bubbles, things that will burst with a single poke."
"As long as we persist in extinguishing these abnormalities, you will find that these abnormal phenomena will become fewer and fewer, and finally be completely annihilated."
***
Hearing Quirrell's narration, Fang Linyan also suddenly realized. He could basically confirm that under his pressure, Quirrell's previous narration should be very little.
Not only that, Quirrell deliberately concealed the location of the underground karst cave he discovered. This showed that he had also judged Fang Linyan's purpose, so he specially kept this as a life-saving talisman.
But what he didn't know was that Fang Linyan only needed to know that the place was on Madagascar Island!
The two key words that Quirrell mentioned, "Birds of Paradise" and "Olive Tree", could ensure that the location of Madagascar was correct and not just a rumor.
This was because the Birds of Paradise were only found in two secret realms on Earth. One of them was in Greenland, and the other was in Madagascar. Olive trees, which were commonly seen in the tropics, would never appear in Greenland, which was covered in ice and snow.
Of course, if Quirrell, who was continuously beaten, could still think of enough information to trick him at this time, then Fang Linyan would accept it!
After a sigh, Fang Linyan looked a little melancholy. He turned his head and looked at the sky in the distance. He seemed to be abnormally angry after hearing the relevant news.
At this time, Quirrell's resentful eyes also fell on his face. This guy gritted his teeth and said in his heart,
"You damn idiot, as long as I get freedom, I will immediately report you to the Ministry of Magic!! I will personally send you to Azkaban and let you have a good taste of the Dementor's kiss! "
At this time, the sound of engines suddenly came from a distance. Several cars drove over, then Elizabeth and Parkinson jumped out of the car.
After seeing Parkinson, Quirrell's pupils suddenly shrank. After a scream, a raging black flame suddenly appeared on his body, then he pounced on Fang Linyan!
After seeing the black flame on Quirrell's body, Fang Linyan actually felt a strong sense of threat in his heart, and he immediately retreated.
It could be seen that in this black flame, Quirrell's skin quickly wrinkled and dried up. His whole body seemed to have become the fuel of the flame, evaporating quickly. From Quirrell's twisted and painful face, it could be seen that he actually did not feel good!
A short dozen seconds later, Quirrell had completely turned into a cluster of greyish white embers. The black flames on his body gathered together as if they had a life of their own, transforming into a several-meter-long black flame serpent that coiled on the ground.
Wherever it passed, the soil and sand on the ground directly melted. It could be seen that its temperature was amazing!
At this time, Fang Linyan also retreated early. Parkinson and Elizabeth were also speechless when they saw this shocking scene.
At this time, Fang Linyan looked at Parkinson and said,
"Hey, old man, can you explain? Why did Quirrell commit suicide without hesitation after seeing you? "
After Parkinson heard it, his whole body shook violently,
"What? You said he is Quirrell? Quilinas Quirrell? "
Fang Linyan said,
"That's right. Don't you recognize him?"
Parkinson said in annoyance,
"Of course! This guy looked like he had just been beaten up. His face was bruised and swollen, and he even rolled on the ground a few times. How could I recognize who this guy is? "
Having said that, Parkinson stepped forward and spat maliciously at Quirrell's ashes, then he took a deep breath and said,
"My son died when he was 7 years old. I only have a nephew who I watched grow up with. As a result, my nephew died in the hands of Quirrell!"
"Then, I tried to get rid of him, but I didn't succeed. Quirrell, on the other hand, has an astonishing amount of power behind him. He comes from a famous family and is able to talk to a big shot like Dumbledore. Even the people of the underground world have to give him some face."
"This is also the reason why I have to open a bar in such a shabby place and hide my identity even though I have an extraordinary position in the industry."
When Parkinson said this, Fang Linyan immediately understood the reason for Quirrell's suicide.
This guy still had a glimmer of hope in his heart that he could keep his promise and let him go.
However, as soon as Parkinson came, he knew that he had no chance. What else could he do but commit suicide? Wait to be tortured?
At this time, Fang Linyan suddenly thought of another thing. He pondered for a few seconds and said,
"Old Parkinson, since you regard the dead Nebel as a thorn in your side, then he must have a bad impression of you, right?"
Parkinson said faintly,
"Let's put it this way, if the 2 of us enter a room at the same time, then only 1 person can come out alive in the end."
Having said that, Parkinson suddenly understood Fang Linyan's meaning, and he said in surprise,
"You mean to say that this Quirrell came for me?"
