Chapter 67 Tower of Truth
The Tower of Truth, a special territory founded by Littorio, the first emperor of the Silver Empire, is a large territory by the sea with an area close to that of an ordinary principality.

Today, the Tower of Truth has evolved over time from a territory directly under the Emperor to one with a transcendent status unmatched by any other territory.

In the current Tower of Truth, everything is decided by the Council of Truth. Even if the Silver Emperor comes, he must act according to the regulations of the Council of Truth as long as he does not want to offend the Tower of Truth.

In the center of the territory, there is a special wizard tower designed by Littorio himself and named the Tower of Truth. It is the seat of the Parliament of Truth.

It is precisely because of this tower that this special territory is called the Tower of Truth.

When Littorio was alive, the Tower of Truth was a loyal direct territory of the Silver Empire, continuously supplying talents to the empire.

The Silver Empire was able to sweep across the surroundings, not only because of Littorio's legendary power, but also because of the huge role played by the spellcasters who walked out of the Tower of Truth.

As spellcasters, they know more and perform better than ordinary people in politics, economics, and military.

Without them, no matter how powerful Littorio was, he would not be able to build a vast and powerful human empire.

When Emperor Littorio died and the first civil war in the Silver Empire broke out, the Tower of Truth, which had absorbed talents from all over the empire, also split.

Although the imperial loyalists of the Tower of Truth eventually defeated the local separatists, they also suffered heavy losses.

Afterwards, even though they tried their best to maintain the unity of the empire, they could not withstand the siege. In the end, in order for the Silver Empire to continue, they had no choice but to accept the result of the division of the empire.

And because of its achievements in the first civil war, the Tower of Truth's special status in the Silver Empire was once again enhanced.

Step by step, it has evolved from a territory directly under the emperor's jurisdiction to an independent territory that is completely independent of the empire.

Moreover, due to the constant bloodsucking of the Tower of Truth, the legacy left by Emperor Littorio in the Silver Empire was also drained, and the once relatively complete official spellcaster training institution collapsed and could no longer train qualified spellcasters for the Silver Empire.

In the 503rd year of the Silver Calendar, the then Silver Emperor officially abolished the training institutions, and the training system for spellcasters in the Silver Empire was completely monopolized by the Tower of Truth.

Until now, spellcasters coming out of the Tower of Truth have accounted for the absolute majority of Sinnar.

"Since the Tower of Truth is so important, after so many years, isn't there any Silver Emperor who wants to regain control of the Tower of Truth?"

Listening to Roland's words, Hela raised her hand and asked curiously.

"Of course there are, but they all failed."

Roland smiled and continued.

"The position of the Silver Emperor is not hereditary. There is no emperor who can sit on that position and does not want to control the Tower of Truth."

"However, the status of the Tower of Truth is too high. Even the emperor would find it difficult to shake the status of the Tower of Truth."

"For example, the last Silver Emperor, the girl who was pushed to the throne at the age of seven, was, to a certain extent, an attempt by the seven Silver Families to unite and strengthen the Emperor's control over the Tower of Truth."

"After all, most schools in the Tower of Truth still hope that the Silver Empire can become stronger."

"If this gifted girl can make full use of her talent, it is indeed possible for her to gain the loyalty of some schools."

"It's a pity that the Tower of Truth is no longer what it was during the first civil war. Some schools are unwilling to give up their power."

As he spoke, Roland looked at Hela and spoke softly.

"In fact, whether it was the loss of control of the previous Silver Emperor or the Rose War, there were shadows of some schools behind them."

"But they just went with the flow and did it in a covert way, so not many people noticed."

As for how Roland knew it.

Of course it was because in her previous life, the Silver Queen used this as an excuse to march directly into the Tower of Truth, and the news spread everywhere.

Hearing Roland's words, Hela frowned and continued to ask.

"So, the death of her relatives was not an accident?"

"of course not."

Roland gave a direct answer.

"Do you think a Four-Ring Knight can be killed by an ordinary stone?" Hearing Roland's words, Hela subconsciously clenched her fists.

She still remembered the history Roland had told her before.

Those queens who had been registered for three years and were already ten years old lost control due to the death of their relatives.

As an orphan whose family was also killed, Hela felt a little sympathetic towards her.

Although she caused a huge disaster after losing control, she didn't do it on purpose after all.

The real murderers are the ones who cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Hela's fantasy about the Tower of Truth was instantly shattered.

In the books I read before, the Tower of Truth received all kinds of praise and was hailed as a holy place for spellcasters.

Hela naturally had a little yearning for this.

Although she wanted to follow Roland, she also wanted to take a look around this holy land of spellcasters.

Before, when Hela knew she was going to the Tower of Truth, she was a little excited, but now, she felt that it was nothing.

Roland patted her somewhat disappointed expression and spoke calmly.

"The Tower of Truth isn't that good, but it's not that bad either. Just treat it with a normal attitude."

"Well, I see."

Hela nodded, picked up a book beside her, opened it, and turned to the praise of the Tower of Truth.

Then she looked up at Roland and asked.

“Why do so many people praise it?”

"Guess who wrote this book? Where is he from?"

Roland smiled, casually turned the book to the back, pointed at the author's name, and said.

Hela lowered her head, looked at the author's name, and said.

"But he is a member of the Veliky School. Aren't they dedicated to exploring the past and recording historical truth? Are the records true?"

"Indeed, I didn't say what he wrote was false."

Roland nodded, confirming her idea, and then changed the subject and said.

"But, what if I only write about the good things and not the bad ones?"

"How can you do this!"

Hela frowned and shouted.

Roland raised his eyebrows slightly and said nonchalantly.

"Is there a problem? I just omitted some unimportant content. The rest is basically true. Can you say that I am not recording true history?"

Hearing Roland's words, Hela puffed up her cheeks, not knowing how to respond.

“Hela, remember, don’t just believe what others say. Everyone speaks based on their own standpoint.”

"Even for me, it's the same."

Roland paused and continued.

"Think more."
