"A commission from the family?" Shinji's voice was full of confusion, "What commission? When did it come from, and why didn't anyone tell me?"

"Report to the captain, it came yesterday afternoon. Because the specific information only arrived this morning, and you came back today, so-"

The most reliable person in the brigade is "Trial", followed by the adjutant "Chariot", since "Chariot" said so, Shinji has no intention of pursuing it.

"What about the contents of the commission?"

"Crusade against a certain group of dependents under the command of Otten Roche. ”

"Dependents...... Is that the 'White Feather'?"

Shinji remembered her encounter with Loreleia last fall, when she appeared alone in the Gertler family in order to get information about a second-generation family member of the White Wing Gong, and the code name of this family member was "White Feather", which was attached to the white feathers of "White Wing".

"Yes. "Chariot" nodded, "The family has been eyeing this dead apostle since last year, and finally got a piece of information that is not low in credibility not long ago - 'White Feather' will leave the territory of Ottenroche in the near future and head to the Po River Plain in northern Italy, which is suspected to be related to the 'Night of Varzia' that appeared last winter. ”

"Varzia Night", the thirteenth seat of the "Twenty-Seven Ancestors of the Dead Apostles", known as the "King of False Words", the magician of nightmares, in Chinese parlance, is the "sneaky" in the "sneaky".

This is a controversial ancestor, neither the Magicians' Guild, nor the Templar Church, nor the Dead Apostles' own circles have any more information circulating about the Night of Varzia, and even the true face of this ancestor, nay, even if he is a Dead Apostle.

It is only known that on a full moon night, as rumored to be, he appeared in the form of "Vlad the Vampire" in a village in Varzia. When the Knights of the Church arrived, only patches of human skins were left in the village, and this nightmarish night became known as the "Night of Wallazia".

Of course, Shinji, a veteran moon chef, knows the details of "Varzia Night" very well. After all, in the Moon Kitchen circle, especially in the Moon Ji Kitchen circle, this person's popularity is not low, with a series of nicknames such as "Uncle Wa", "Emperor Yan Yi", "The Man Who Makes the Impossible Possible", "As long as you want, even if you want to be a god, you can pull it out to participate in the war" and so on.

His real name is Zepia Eltram Oberon, and he was born in Atlas Academy, one of the three major departments of the Magic Association, and is an excellent alchemist who is known as "Atlas". Predicting the future of humanity's demise, he began to use all means to try to find a way to avoid that future - the alchemists known as "Atlas" were obsessed with making the impossible possible.

However, no matter what Zepia thought, he couldn't find a way to avoid it, and eventually went berserk. Later, he made a pact with the ninth seat of the Twenty-Seven Ancestors, known as "Black Hime" and "Ancient Red", to become a Dead Apostle, and to pursue the Sixth Law as his goal.

There are five confirmed magic in the mysterious world, but it does not mean that there are only five magic, and many magicians believe that there are other magic in addition to the five magic, and Zepia is one of them.

Unfortunately, this challenge ended in failure. After failing to challenge the Sixth Law, the powerful Reiko (Soul Blueprint) that formed him dissipated, and the Reiko liberated from the body and will spread in the atmosphere and remained in the world.

Originally, the spirit child of the fog was supposed to fall into "nothing" and wait for the next transformation, but Zepia completed the equation called "Tatali" before the fog dispersed. As long as certain conditions are met, "Tatali" will happen.

"Tatali" is a "phenomenon" that manifests itself in a certain period and where certain conditions are met.

By manipulating people's uneasiness and rumors in a specific place in advance, the common common sense "malignant information" that circulates in a small area is amplified and converged until a distinct image emerges, and then it is given to entities according to the appearance and abilities of the rumors.

If the "inherent barrier" is to erode the present world with one's own mental landscape, then "Tatali" is "an alternative inherent barrier that transforms the form into reality in the hearts of the people around it". That's why it's the man who makes the impossible possible, and that's why it's "as long as you want to, even a god can pull it out and join the war."

When the "Tatali" happens, the misty spirit son will be able to gather in the "rumors" that have occurred, resurrect in the present world again, and continue to challenge the Sixth Dharma.

Zepia calculates the area where "Tatali" will occur until the end of humanity, and then creates a nautical chart in thousands of years as a program for the movement of the "foggy self" after the will disappears.

The most recent "Varzia Night" took place last winter, in a small town in the Po River Plain in northern Italy. None of the inhabitants of the town survived, and even the crusade sent out by the Church was wiped out.

According to the premise of "Melty blood", Liz Baife and the Knights of the Heresy Inquisition led by her were destroyed in this battle, and only Liz Baifei barely survived in Zepia's body in a special way with the Holy Shield.

However, this time, Liz Baifei still stayed as the head of Liyuan Women's College, and she has never left Guanbuzi City, just escaped the catastrophe.

It is worth mentioning that Liz Bayfeld does not have the same ending in different worldlines. As mentioned in Chapter 6 of The Empty Realm, "Forgetting the Recording", the name of the dean of the Liyuan Women's College is also Liz Baifey, and there is a shield in the dean's room, which is often misunderstood as a small (large) violin.

Obviously, the world line where Shinji is located goes to the latter one.

Either way, though, the dangers of "Varzia Night" won't change in any way. Although it has been a few months since the "Tatali" incident, it is not certain whether there is anything unclean left in the local area, coupled with the intervention of the "White Wing Gong" forces, the pressure on the Clone brigade that is still in the growth period is indeed a little greater - not because I am afraid of how strong the enemy is, but because the enemy's ability is too weird, maybe there will be attrition for some reason.

However, if the Clone Brigade wants to grow, sooner or later it will encounter all kinds of unexpected situations, and this is indeed a good opportunity to test, after all, it is only the residue and dependents, not the ancestor itself. And retreating at this time will also have a certain impact on the morale of the brigade and the reputation of the outside world.

So to fight or not to fight?

After thinking about it, Shinji decided to throw the question out:

"'Chariots', 'Judgments', 'Popes', 'Kings', 'Hermits', 'Justice', you talk about it, fight or not. ”

His gaze swept over the six cadres one by one, and then turned to all the members of the brigade.

"When you're done, if others want to express their opinions, they can just say it. Everyone spoke freely and discussed the first task of the year. ”
