Chapter 22: Reversal and the Dead Apostles and Heretics

"Prisoner, you enrolled in Hananoji Town High School in Changyue City in March, right, although according to the testimony that you helped Jewel Weng to deal with a monster, but according to the data, when you arrived in Hananoji Town, Changyue City, there were signs of suspected Death Apostle activity there."

As we all know, Lynn is no longer an ordinary human, and when he was designated by the seal, he "captured a precious test object that was transforming into a Dead Apostle but had not yet been fully transformed" had already spread throughout the Clock Tower. Until now, Lynn's body is said to still have half of the Dead Apostle's strength remaining, which was known when the judge investigated Lynn's intelligence.

In order to prolong life, or to facilitate their own research, magicians often study the Dead Apostles. Either they transform themselves into Dead Apostles, or they wish to turn the power of Dead Apostles into their own.

But either way, "the widespread appearance of suspected signs of Death Apostles" like the one in the report is prohibited!

The Dead Apostles will devour human lives and continue in that area at an incredible rate, even if the Magic Guild does not care much about ordinary people, they will not let this phenomenon go.

When Lynn appeared in that city, there happened to be Dead Apostles? And the Dead Apostles just started to multiply around that city? Even novels are not such a coincidence!

What's more, Lynn stayed there for more than a month, and with Lynn's strength, it was impossible not to find out that there was a Dead Apostle, but he concealed this matter and did not tell the Clock Tower, which was still information obtained from other secret agents. How could a crown magician discover the information that a passing magician could discover, and a passing little magician discovered it, how could this kind of thing happen in reality?

Finally, the judge finally found enough evidence to take Lynn!

"Dead Apostles?"

"Yes, it's the Dead Apostles!"

The judge cleared his throat and said with a smile.

"Hanoji Town, Nagagetsu City, has been under the management of the famous local family Nase since ancient times, and the current head of the family is Nase Izumi. Because Japan is different from Western Europe, they don't have to deal with fantasy species like Chimera, but just a demon dream formed by leylines and miasma, so there is a profession known as an alien warrior there. I don't have to repeat these things to you who have been there. According to the information, since you went to Hananoji Town, Nagatsuki City, there have been some strange situations there. ”

First of all, during the [Wind Stoppage] period that Lynn experienced at that time, the speed at which the demon dream disappeared was very abnormal, compared to previous years, even if he joined an alien magician like Lynn, there was a huge hole. The Nase family has always controlled the number of alien otherworldly warriors and magicians there, and there shouldn't have been such an empty hole, but it seems that some "people who shouldn't belong there" suddenly appeared there, hunting and killing Youmeng.

Then there are the signs of vampires, and it is difficult to say when the two occur, because the average Dead Apostle will not care about those demon nightmares, and the demon nightmares will not attack the dead. Either there are high-ranking Dead Apostles who want to do something with the Yukama, otherwise it's hard to explain what's going on there.

The vampire affair was revealed after Lynn left, and a man was seen attacking people at night, judging from the wounds of the victim, that it might be a Dead Apostle. So the Nase family is also wondering if this happened to Lynn.

The judge is now shaking this matter out in order to specifically convict Lynn!

What had been thought to be a hopeless case was reversed in an instant when he remembered the new evidence, and this feeling made Judge Hooknose want to cry with happiness. Ah, finally, it looks like my last case was settled!

In the way of criminal ambush!

The judge who turned around suddenly found that Lynn had suddenly appeared in front of him. Yes, in front of him, in the short time when the judge was just thinking about things, I don't know what method Lynn used, suddenly jumped to a height of several meters and squatted silently on the table, two bright blood-red eyes looking directly at him.

"Dead Apostles?"

Lynn repeated the word again, and the judge saw something complicated in his eyes.

"Yes, Dead Apostle, we have reason to believe that it was spread by you during your time in Japan......"

"Do you really believe it?"

Lynn's eerily bright, reddish eyes continued to stare at the judge, and a drop of cold sweat oozed from the corner of his forehead.

Under this dangerous gaze, the judge desperately remembered everything about Lynn. Dead Apostle, Lynn became a Dead Apostle because of an accident; And the accident was caused by the fact that he had to deal with another group of Dead Apostles; The reason why we have to deal with this group of dead apostles is because ......

The judge's words choked.

He remembered that the reason why the "prisoner" in front of him had a cause and effect with the Dead Apostles was because at the very beginning, a group of Dead Apostles tore his parents apart. The Dead Apostles are an absolute enemy to him. If it weren't for that, he might have let go of the effect of the origin on the bloodline and turned into a Dead Apostle cleanly.

It's like this, half human, half Dead Apostle, half hanging, whether as a Dead Apostle or as a magician, it's thankless, and it's not impossible to completely become a Dead Apostle when you give up the part of the human being. The Magic Society is not as rigid as the Templar Church, and even if it converts itself into a Dead Apostle in order to prolong its life, as long as it does not involve the content specified by the seal, or does not cause the Dead Apostle phenomenon to spread, the above are very tolerant.

In addition, it is very simple for magicians who have achieved considerable success to extend their lifespan. or devour other people's souls, or encroach on other people's bodies, or transfer their own personality memory magic imprints to special androids, or make special dolls for themselves, or have completely alienated themselves in the process of studying magic......

Even His Excellency Jewel, the highest level of the Magic Society, is not human.

But the Dead Apostles alone will not work.

The first is the fragile alliance between the Magic Association and the Templar Church, the second is to hide the fact of the Magic Society, and the third is that magicians still basically exist as human beings, and it is also one of the obligations of magicians to eliminate the redundant Dead Apostles.

Therefore, when the judge was studying Lynn's past information, he also had a moment of doubt, why didn't Lynn completely become a Dead Apostle? That would at least increase his strength. But it was only a moment of doubt, and soon the judge put the matter on the back burner. Now, under Lynn's threatening gaze, he finally remembered the cause and effect of Lynn and the Dead Apostles.

"I ......"

This boy could not have let the Dead Apostles go. By virtue of his relationship with the Dead Apostles, and by his parents, who had been killed by the Dead Apostles.

The judge, who had been unable to speak for a long time, let out a weak sigh.

"Well, you're not guilty......"

"I plead guilty."

"Huh?!"

Unexpectedly, before the judge's voice fell, Lynn pleaded guilty directly. As soon as he said this, the whole room fell silent for a moment.

"Hey!!"

Offstage, the corners of the second mouth twitched, and the cigar in his mouth instantly fell to the ground.

"Hey, wait! Yugdomilenya! There is still room for redemption in this matter......"

"No need II, let's stop here."

Standing up from the judge's table, he hung his head so that no one behind him could see his expression, and the second and Balugo in the audience could only see Lynn's current state by the judge's surprised face.

It should be very bad.

"That's all for this matter, I'll go and thank you over there, and my family won't lose a cent of the salary they promised you. But that's all there is to it, hey, Your Excellency. ”

He kicked the table rather irreverently.

"Give me the verdict, and punish me to settle the matter on the Japanese side."

"However, this is not in accordance with the rules......"

"Don't be verbose, I'll tell you to be you!" Suddenly, Lynn roared.

"I'm at fault for letting the Dead Apostles appear in the cities I've been to, no matter what! Only in this matter will I not quibble, so you can write as much as you like in my report. But I'm not going to be locked up in prison or sent to a place designated by the seal, I'm going to go to Japan and settle the matter once and for all! ”

"Only the Dead Apostles...... There is only Dead Apostles, and I will never let go! ”

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the second who was standing in the audience suddenly saw Lynn's arm trembling slightly, and he remembered the countless words on Lynn's bandage.

Mankind.

"Humans" written in various languages.

It had never occurred to him to ask Lynn why he wanted to use the word human, but now, he kind of understood. And Lynn never sucks blood, just autophagy, and devours his own blood, so that his body grows to his current age.

Lynn took a step back and jumped off the stage, and as he was about to hit the ground, a few tentacles protruding from his suit to slow the impact. It wasn't until he walked up to the second that he raised his head and showed a bright smile.

"I'm sorry II, I've bothered you these days."

"It doesn't matter, I've been paid enough anyway." After a pause, II asked the bottom of his mind.

"It's just that you still hate the Dead Apostles so much, and you still yearn for human identity? Is that why you're still on the side of humanity and the Magic Society? ”

With Lynn's strength and character, he is not at the mercy of the Clock Tower, just like his joking wish to "blow up the Clock Tower", and he is free to go anywhere in the world.

"No, the reason why I'm on the side of the association is to repay Sister Qingzi's kindness, and it's only natural to hate the Dead Apostles."

"As for being on the side of the human race...... Yes, even though I am just a heretic, a 'monster' in the guise of a magician, I still choose to stand with humans. Even though I'm not human anymore, I'm still 'human'. ”

Lynn, who is no longer a heretic over there, said No_matter_where_a_heretic.
