Chapter 1266 The Whale Effect (Meow is now addicted to Shin Megami Tensei V)

As a master assassin, Mathias had made full preparations before setting out on his mission, and even considered countless backup plans.

But……………In fact, none of his backup plans were used.

They had no intention of guarding against him at all. Mathias came out the same way he entered, and they even made him a pot of tea.

As for what Mathias gained…

"Everything we want to know is here."

Looking at the king, the master assassin smiled bitterly and handed over a booklet.

"What is this?"

Looking at the booklet handed over by the other party, Varian was confused, but he still motioned to Duke Fordragon beside him to take it, and then opened it, and then his face twitched.

"Inquisition Manual?"

Reading the title above, Varian looked at Mathias in confusion. What's the matter with this thing that looks like the National Geographic Manual of Azeroth? You just brought this back?

If Mathias was not a master assassin of MI7, Varian would have suspected that he was using this thing to fool him. It is well known that this kind of thing is used to fool others. How could the real information be put in it?

"Your Majesty, you will know when you see it."

Mathias is not a fool. When he saw Varian looking at him, he knew what the other party was thinking. In fact, when the other party gave him this manual, he also felt that the Inquisition took him for a fool, but after reading it...

"……………………"

Varian silently turned the booklet in front of him and read it page by page. At first, he was a little indifferent, but the more he read, the more solemn Varian's expression became. After turning the last page, Varian fell into silence and couldn't say a word.

Mathias did not lie. This booklet did solve the information they needed.

What is the Inquisition?

The opening of the booklet clearly states that the Inquisition is an organization that protects mankind and eliminates threats to human existence at all costs.

If it was just like this, Varian would certainly not take it seriously. Who wouldn't say empty words?

However, the booklet also describes in detail the criteria for the Inquisition to judge humans, including complete humans, partial mutations, and complete mutations. Not only that, it also elaborates on how the Inquisition will deal with these existences.

To put it bluntly, this is simply a standard instruction manual.

If that were the case, most people would just laugh it off and regard it as a joke.

However, after the Forsaken were completely destroyed, this was no longer a joke.

Not to mention the judgment of humans in the Inquisition manual, which made Varian puzzled.

Why is it a skull?

In fact, this problem has also been encountered by players in the game. Once a player received such a task, a village on a certain planet mysteriously disappeared, and then the player was responsible for investigating and finding the missing person. Needless to say, after the player's tracking investigation, it was found that the two missing people had been killed long ago, and the children born by the two missing people were enslaved by a race called rat people and became their war props to deal with humans.

Needless to say, the player assisted the human village to defeat the attack of the ratmen and then captured the ratmen.

However, in the final investigation, the player was surprised to find that these guys who were regarded as monsters and looked like rats were actually human beings!

In history, most of the people in that world were ordinary people without superpowers, but later superpowers appeared and started a war with ordinary people. After several wars that almost destroyed the world, superpowers became humans, and the original ordinary people degenerated into ratmen, becoming a threat regarded as monsters by superpowers.

But even if their bodies degenerated and mutated, these ordinary people still wanted to take revenge on superpowers, which led to the emergence of this task.

In the end, the ratmen were completely wiped out. The players who completed the task posted the entire task process on the forum with mixed feelings, and then a big discussion was launched as expected.

But in the end, most players had to admit that the standard of the Tribunal for judging humans was simple and crude, but it was really the only standard that could be used.

First of all, if you insist on verifying whether a race belongs to humans from a historical perspective, it is a big problem for archaeology. Players come to play games, not to seek trouble. Even on the issue of human origin, anthropologists have not yet reached a conclusion. What qualifications do they have to define what kind of history is considered human?

As for judging from genes?

That's even more impossible! It can even be said that this is a taboo of the Inquisition!

As for the reason, it has to start from the golden age when humans flourished. At that time, human civilization was running all the way, and humans themselves began to seek excitement and commit suicide as expected. They even chose the path of genetic ascension and changed their genes into a mess.

So there is a joke among players that the Iron Man Rebellion was not a rebellion in the strict sense, but the humans of that era changed their genes beyond recognition. Even the Iron Man could not identify whether it was human from the genetic level... So the Iron Man rebelled and destroyed these "alien creatures".

Let's put it this way, it's like the people on an isolated island claiming that their bloodline is that of a proud son from the Central Plains, a descendant of a pure-blood royal family with red roots and pure roots. However, after a genetic test, it was discovered that they were actually slaves of nomadic tribes. Future generations... Naturally, that cow won't be able to boast.

Not to mention that if you judge humans from a genetic level, the humans in the Human Empire may not be as genetically pure as the humans in some aliens.

If this were to explode, wouldn't the Human Empire just explode on the spot?

I have co-authored and boasted about human orthodoxy for dozens of thousands of years, and the clown is actually myself?

My mentality is broken and I'm done.

So the Inquisition chose the simplest and crudest method. No matter what your history is, no matter what your genes are, as long as your skull is the same as that of a human, then you are a member of our human family. It's that simple. The Inquisition does not care or care about other matters.

Like that group of rat men, from a historical perspective, this group of ordinary people who were persecuted by superpowers were quite miserable. Even after degenerating and mutating, they still wanted revenge, and with the unique perseverance and resilience of humans, they persisted until the end without choosing to surrender. It is worthy of praise and emotion.

But if you regard the other party as a human being because of this, then there will be countless human races in the human empire.

Apart from anything else, no matter how tragic the life experiences of these rat-men are, most people would never admit that these walking rats are equally human beings like themselves.

So the simplest and most direct way is - judging from the skulls, these rat men are not human, so they are treated as aliens.

Simple, crude, cruel and efficient.

Not only that, but what Varian didn't expect the most was that in the eyes of the Inquisition, humans were the supreme race, and a complete unmutated skull represented the sanctity and purity of humans. Therefore, those dwarves, gnomes, elves, etc. are all regarded as subhumans in the eyes of the Inquisition.

This concept has to be said to have completely shattered Varian's outlook on life.

You must know that on the continent of Azeroth, almost all creatures believe that elves are a long-lived, powerful and noble race. However, in the eyes of the Inquisition, those people with long ears can only be regarded as demi-humans...

Well, strictly speaking, this is Duanmuhuai's personal preference, or the player's preference deviation.

You know, elves are very popular in most fantasy games. However, in the Star Sea, the Eldar are a quite disgusting race. After being disgusted by the Eldar, many players became so disgusted that they despised all similar races.

Especially the elves, a race that is very similar to the Eldar in appearance and temperament, are treated as a copycat Eldar by players.

I can't defeat the Eldar, but I can't defeat you?

If we look at the Inquisition's attitude towards race, humans must be given priority, followed by dwarves - because the dwarves' firm will (or in other words, dead brains) makes it difficult for them to be eroded and corrupted by Chaos. As long as you make good friends with them, they will be very loyal and trustworthy allies, safe and reliable.

On the other hand, races like elves, which are arrogant and arrogant and have a high probability of being corrupted, have a lower status than Ogryn in the eyes of the Tribunal.

The sequence is also very high on the purification list, at least on the first page.

This also made Varian very uncomfortable. He was friendly to the dwarves. The Kingdom of Stormwind also had a good relationship with Ironforge, and there was a direct subway connection between the two sides.

But being so nakedly looking down on and despising the elves was a bit too much for Varian to accept.

"This Inquisition...couldn't it be the survivors of Lordaeron?"

After reading the manual, Varian looked at Mathias suspiciously and asked. His suspicion was not unreasonable. When the Kingdom of Lordaeron was still there, its king's lifelong wish was to unify the seven human kingdoms and realize the dream of a human empire. It's just that this Inquisition is more extreme than the original Lordaeron. What is written between the lines is that only humans can live, and aliens must die...

In addition, the Inquisition is currently at the old site of Lordaeron, and there is no room for Varian not to think too much.

"I don't think so."

Mathias shook his head.

"The Inquisition is very powerful. Their technology is very similar to that of the dwarves, but it is several times more advanced than the dwarves. To be honest, if Lordaeron had this kind of strength, it would not have been destroyed at all. And their marks are also the same as those of the Lordaeron. There is no similarity between Lordaeron and the concepts are completely different. The Inquisition is only responsible for eliminating human threats and will not interfere in human internal affairs. If they are the survivors of Lordaeron, then they will definitely use this to regain control. Kingdom, and even complete the great cause of unification of mankind..."

"The problem is that times have changed completely."

Varian smiled bitterly. There were not many of the seven human kingdoms left. As for the great cause of unifying mankind...well, it is useless to talk about it now.

However, according to the manual of the Inquisition, there is a big problem.

"They shouldn't start a war against the tribe."

After all, there are trolls, tauren, orcs, goblins in the tribe - Varian can count them casually and knows that most of them are not even demi-humans according to the standards of the Inquisition. Chun Chun is the "alien" written above. ".

"They do have plans to attack the tribe."

Mathias nodded. After reading the manual, he also tried it in a subtle way, but the other party told Mathias bluntly that all aliens would die without exception.

"this……………"

Hearing Mathias's answer, Varian fell silent. To be honest, at the beginning, Varian did want to get closer to the Inquisition so that it could become a member of the Alliance. But after reading the manual carefully, Varian was completely frightened by the radical style of the Inquisition and had to reconsider his ideas.

"………………Send someone to closely observe and monitor the Inquisition. If there is any abnormal action, report to me immediately."

In the end, Varian could only issue such an order. He stared at the manual in his hand with a worried look on his face.

Now Azeroth is in turmoil, and the emergence of this new force... I really don't know whether it is good or bad.

Varian knew that in order to prevent the sardines from dying during transportation, fishermen in the north would put a few catfish in them to make the sardines move.

But what if it was not catfish, but whales?

Can this small pond of Azeroth withstand the storm it stirs up?
