At the Beckland Nest Mental Sanatorium, the clock was already approaching eight o'clock, and thanks to Victoria's location, it was still very bright at this time.

"What's going on?" Ms. Q asked casually as she stood in front of the clear, high-strength single-sided glass and looked at the D-class personnel wearing strange helmets in the ward.

"It hasn't started yet, and according to the normal process, the death mechanism is usually triggered two to three hours after nightfall." Mr. R sat on a stool that didn't look comfortable, flipping through the papers in his hand.

Two days and one night have passed since it was confirmed that the "Covenant Card" was not a copy, and in that time, MI9 has re-sorted out all the follow-ups that have been judged to be copycats since the appearance of Libra.

Although there are still many cases in which no murderer has been found, many more have already been arrested.

All of these arrested people have stolen property from the case, and many of them have even been exposed because they were discovered when they sold the stolen goods.

In order to find out what the difference between these people and the few copycats who died after receiving the Covenant card, Mr. R and Ms. Q, including their team members, have been intensively brushing various secondary creations of the Libra Covenant for the past two days, trying to find out the new execution rules for this strange ghost.

However, with the end of the Olympic Games, Libra's strange talk has also spread to all parts of the world through various media and tourists, and the relevant two creations will include various languages, and according to different cultures and habits in various places, the development of two creations with local characteristics, which does not count those discussions in forums, post bars, and group chats.

Although most of them will disappear completely when the turmoil passes, it is too difficult to find useful information from this massive exchange of information, at least for now.

It's not that no one makes a relatively reasonable guess, but in the end, it's just a guess.

The reason why MI9 is so concerned about "Libra" is not only for the sake of profit or political achievements, nor because there is no other goal to pursue, but the real reason lies in its influence.

Don't look at "Libra" on the surface seems to be a very good ghost for the people, but for any country, it is a complete cancer, even if you do not count the various interests and subsequent imitations, its own existence will reduce the credibility of a country.

Not to mention, there is also the example of Dongguo in front of you.

Basically, all the people who can serve as the high-level people in the corresponding organization have basically been to Dongguo, not to learn any advanced concepts, but to let them understand how powerless human beings will be when these things get out of control.

……

As the minutes ticked by, it was finally dark, Ms. Q stopped what she was doing, and Mr. R stopped taking the documents from his assistant.

Not only them, at this moment, many middle-level personnel who have nothing to do with "Libra" have also begun to appear here one after another, and some even bring their favorite juniors with them, waiting for the death of this D-class personnel.

Tick, tick, tick......

A screen was turned on, revealing an image identical to that of the room, but instead of live footage, data transmitted through the brains of D-class personnel in the ward.

Designated C-62, it is a mechanical helmet with a USB socket.

It is not a mind reader or a lie detector, but can only convert the wearer's audio-visual into a video file, which is roughly the feeling of turning the wearer into a high-resolution human flesh camera or tape recorder.

It sounds like something that can be replaced by an ordinary camera, but compared to pure technological creations, this magical item naturally has something magical about it-

It captures not "objectively existent" images and sounds, but "perceived" by the wearer, in other words, it can record the wearer's "hallucinations" and "dreams".

"Everything is working fine at the moment." Professional technicians constantly compare the images taken by conventional cameras with the images output by magical items, whether it is a subtle sound or a slight flaw in the picture, it will be found out.

This seemingly futile work continued for a full hour, and some of the young agents who had been brought in had even begun to show impatience, but at that moment, an eerie bell rang out from the computer stereo connected to C-62, and the D-class personnel sitting in the hospital bed shivered violently.

"It's coming!"

Everyone outside the ward cheered up, staring nervously at the two side-by-side monitors, and looking into the ward from time to time.

The room was empty, but the D-class made a frightened sound, and on the computer monitor linked to the magical item, a man wearing a skull mask appeared in his field of vision.

"Golden collar pin, European-style suit dress......" Mr. R kept recording the characteristics of the skeleton mask man's costume in his notes, but in his mind, he had already compared the details related to the second creation and eyewitness reports.

The relevant staff are recording the footage, and although the video recorded by the C-62 can be saved, they still prefer to memorize it with pen and paper and eyes, considering that there seems to be something in the second design of the Libra that "erases the traces of electronic device surveillance".

"Tell you three good things......

A very oppressive voice came from the speaker, but the room was still empty, and the D-class who had collapsed beside the bed was floating unscientifically out of thin air, and strangulation marks began to appear on his neck.

Outside the ward, a pair of eyes stared at everything in front of them, and even the sound of breathing was suppressed to a minimum, only the rustle of the tip of the pen against the paper was the accompaniment to this death.

“…… You're on the execution list. ”

As the last sentence fell, the last voice came out of the picture that had become pitch black—

"Click!"

It was the sound of a broken neck bone.

Seeing the screen representing the magical item's output port turn into a snowflake, the Administrator who had a lot of experience with it understood that this represented the complete death of the wearer, and although the D-class was still floating in the air at this time, they had no way of knowing if the "Oath Keeper" had left any other information after that.

After all, B-44's side effects are on the user, not the environment as a whole, and while the user continues to change after being turned into a corpse, they have no means to observe the significance of this change.

The corpse finally fell, and patches of blood appeared out of thin air, outlining hideous and messy words, the blood words that the D-class had seen through B-44 a few days ago had now turned into reality.

One by one, the mid-level agents left the ward "satisfied" with their scareless or excited subordinates, while the administrator stood in front of the computer, waiting for the technician to export the video and remove the C-62.

At this time, Mr. R and Ms. Q were still standing at the door of the ward, quietly chewing on the words left by the "oath keeper".

An idea that seems to be slowly taking shape.

PS1: It's possible to add extra settings to the protagonist to create weaknesses, but in fact the protagonist can not comply, and that's one of the big advantages of the acquired story.

For example, the protagonist of the Ten Covenants can not obey it, but when he does not obey it, he will not be able to obtain the power brought by the corresponding covenant.

And it's not so easy to add settings.,You set the second OOC.,Others don't recognize it.,The second set is too strong.,And it will provide new power to the weird talk.。 So it doesn't usually happen.

PS2: Regarding the rules of execution, seven of the ten covenants exist as oaths to obtain protection, and breaking them will at most invalidate the protection and will not lead to execution, and only three will trigger the punishment rules - morality, justice, and balance.

(Balance refers to the balance between morality and law, that is, morality should be punished and deserved, and the law does not punish or punish lightly, so punishment is to maintain this balance)

That is to say, under normal circumstances, if you act in the name of Libra, it doesn't matter whether you use a gun or a mine, it doesn't matter whether you accept the commission or not, and it doesn't even matter if you have an accomplice, whether you have looted property, whether your behavior is fair, whether you have injured the innocent.

As long as your starting point is based on your own morality and justice (you kill for justice, and it's okay to take the money when you're done) and your target is an extralegal fanatic (i.e., the law doesn't or can't give you the punishment it deserves), that's fine.

But on the other hand, if you just use justice and morality as a guise to make money from it in the first place, or if you take action against someone who has been appropriately punished by the law, the oath-keeper disciplinary mechanism will be triggered.
