How do you find the devil out of the crowd?

“…… If you throw it into the water, those who can't drown are the devils, and those who cover up are humans. ”

How to resist the evil witchcraft of the devil?

“…… Chant the name of the Lord of Light, and the devil will not be able to harm the devout believers, and those who are not devout enough, our Lord will not shelter them...... Sounds good, the dead are not religious enough? Dead people don't speak anyway. ”

How to kill the devil?

“…… Throw it into the holy fire and burn it, and it is the devil who burns to death, and he who can't burn to death...... There shouldn't be anyone who can't burn to death. I didn't write about what to do if I couldn't burn to death. Moreover, it is not written how to throw the devil into the holy fire. ”

I threw away this booklet with a helpless face, the "Templar Church Exorcism Handbook (AD 324 Revision)" sounds very reliable, but the way it is done reminds me of the medieval witch of judgment in a certain world.

"What the hell is this thing that the Templar Church has been using to find the devil for so many years? This is clearly a manual for the murder of innocents. ”

"Actually, this was originally used for religious propaganda, and the devils who were able to hide among humans in the main plane before, at least at the high level, and many of them are projections and incarnations of devil bosses, and there are even precedents for infiltrating the cardinals of the Templar Church, how can ordinary people find out."

“…… So, a pamphlet was sent out to reassure people? This crusader that set up a barbecue is actually a reassuring candlelight? It's really full of malice, it seems, that world is generally black. ”

Walking down the long black hallway, Diefend's prison area is beyond deprecation.

Presumably, most of the funds were spent on the renovation of the old and new towns, or perhaps because the city of innocence became a reality. Crime has plummeted. Most of the prisons are vacant. It still has a sense of the old days.

Walking down the passage, a smell of dust made people can't help but cover their noses, the light of the torch just illuminated the empty cell, the empty atmosphere, making this bloody prison very scary, I listened to the warden's report, and at the same time looked at the prisoners.

Removing the prison warden's complaints about his work, I also got the information I wanted to know. In the past two months, only 127 new prisoners have been recruited...... But it has already been the amount of the past six months, and even so, there is now a strange situation where the number of jailers is several times that of prisoners.

Hearing this, I really have some doubts that there is no need to go to prison after all, this is a metropolis with a population of millions, and the total number of prisoners is less than a thousand, when any crime will be caught instantly, the crime rate will actually fall to this point, and the vast majority of criminals. Or an impulsive offender who committed a crime without premeditation.

“…… It seems that I have come at a good time. In a few months, I will be sent to hard labor. ”

"Yes, the number of hard labor in the mines and stone factories has been very insufficient recently, and they have complained to us many times, but I heard that recently they have started to hire necromancer apprentices to use zombies and skeletons to open mines, and it is too incredible that a noble mage can be hired by civilians like us......"

The young jailer seemed to be a little chattering, but what he said was probably what I expected.

Unlike a relatively peaceful world where punishments such as prison sentences are the main punishments, the countries of the Ash world are not so wealthy...... Yes, it is rich, and if he commits a crime, he still lets the state spend money to support him, he does not have to pay labor and hard labor, he can receive some wages when he is fed and clothed, and he can live lying down, if these countries in the north also use such punishments, I am afraid that the prison will be full immediately, and countless people will take the initiative to commit crimes just to eat a mouthful of food.

Most countries in the Ash continent treat prisoners, such as theft and other light sentences of hard labor are released for a period of time, this time is generally not more than two years, most of the time is only a few months, but in order not to make him feel too comfortable, every day not only has labor but also regular punishment, and when he finally goes out, there will be tattoos on his face, which is a lifelong trace, and it is a shame to wash away with his life.

Yes, this is only a misdemeanor, after all, this is an era of chaos and heavy punishment, and if it is a felony such as murder, it is even more simple, and it is enough to be directly executed, but in some places, the death penalty will be replaced by hard labor, degraded slavery, and war cannon fodder, but in most cases, the fate of those prisoners is worse than death.

Obviously, such sentences are very unscientific and humane, some crimes are not too serious, but they are sentenced to life hard labor equivalent to the death penalty, and some are quite bad, but they are only two years of hard labor.

However, this seems to be normal in this world, after all, it has been like this for thousands of years, but a former judge with a little obsessive-compulsive disorder has spent a lot of effort to create an extremely detailed code, from the type of punishment to the number of years, and the type of punishment has been stipulated, and with the rise of the Church of the Law, this system has also been promoted, the punishment has become more stringent, and it is more in line with his crimes, and its core system is probably not to raise idlers but also not to kill people, under the premise of ensuring the safety of prisoners' lives, work instead of punishment, try to make them repay their own culpability, reduce as much as possible the corporal punishment that can cause disability and fatal injuries, and cancel punishments such as stabbing.

At least for now, the praise is good, the state saves money, the prisoner does not die worthless, and has a chance to rehabilitate, so that he will not be disgraced for life and unable to re-employ if he is not engraved on his face, and it is very easy to embark on the road of re-offending.

It can be said that the intervention of a certain "traverser", especially the influence of the Church of the Law related to it, in addition to the legal system, Ash's progress in the past hundred years is probably incomparable to the previous tens of thousands of years.

No matter how good the system is, I probably didn't expect to encounter a shortage of criminals, not to mention the idling of prisons, and those mines that used prisoners as free hard work in previous years have fallen into the dilemma of labor difficulties, of course, I don't care about these, no one commits crimes is naturally a good thing, with the rise of undead labor, labor difficulties are actually not so difficult to solve.

Now that winter is now, all the open-air heavy labor areas have stopped, and if I had been two or three months late, in the early spring, the prisoners would have gone to work, and then they would have been scattered in various mines and factories, and it would have been too late to find people.

It's been less than two months since the demonic abyss started the magic reaction, and I just need to find someone among the prisoners in the last few days.

Rather than using the unreliable methods in that pamphlet, I have a more direct and effective way.

"Look, the magic compass, the devil's detector, Detective Roland's magic watch (without the anesthetic needle)...... Well, don't talk nonsense, this is the wrist chakra of a contract brave. ”

In order to deal with the invasion of the entire plane, the contract warrior system has long become a hot prop, in addition to recording the plane invaders eliminated by the contract warriors, it can also guide the plane invaders contaminated by the starlight web, of course, the high-power, high-precision radar is also large, and can only be placed in the church, mercenary unions, and the mass-produced wrist wheel for personal use, the scope and accuracy of the reconnaissance are limited, and it still tends to record the role of the results.

After the starry sky net of the divine power forbidden spell covered the entire plane, any outsider who entered this plane would be painted with the color of starlight, and the moment they entered, it was equivalent to revealing their position to the entire plane.

This seems to be a no-frilled cordon, but it is increasingly playing a huge role in the war, being able to know in advance about the activities of the Demon Abyss, knowing that there are many inhabitants of the lower plane, and thanks to the existence of this Starlight Web.

And this starlight web,After all, it is a large-scale、Perpetual forbidden spell,It has the same advantages and disadvantages as other forbidden spells.,The advantage is naturally that the scope is huge.,There are mistakes that have not been let go.,But the disadvantage is that the power of the individual is weak.,Moreover,It can also be targeted defense.。

At that time, we arranged this starry sky network, in addition to encouraging the hunting behavior of the contract brave, strategically it was mainly to prevent the invasion of the plane legion, and in this case, it was worthless to mass-produce anti-reconnaissance magic items, or devote great efforts to maintain the anti-reconnaissance spells of a few people.

But this time, even if the devil was exposed for a moment when he first entered, and then he was hidden, it undoubtedly showed that they were either super spellcasters who could wash the starlight mark, or they were wearing targeted magic armor, the former was obviously impossible, and the latter was ......

"Strip those prisoners naked, don't leave a single sock, and then test them one by one with this wrist chakra, and I don't believe they can still hide." (To be continued.) )
