The Exorcist Boy: The Book of Conviction

Miss Anita looked a little sad, she still remembered the day when her mother was killed by a demon.

As a supporter, such an ending is not difficult to predict, but unfortunately, my mother never said that to that adult!
Later, Anita inherited her mother's career and served Kuros wholeheartedly. Kuros has also been to Asia several times...

Anita, who grew up, was quickly fascinated by the other party's personal charm...Of course, he also had the idea of ​​fulfilling his wish instead of his mother.

"It's a pity, I'm just an ordinary person, I don't have the power of [holy], and I can't fight side by side with Kuros like all the exorcists.

I... will never be able to catch up with that person, but even so, I want to do something that I can do for that person.

After all...he has already become my world. "

Facing the sea breeze at dawn, Miss Anita stood at the bow of the boat and looked gently in the direction of Edo.

'Lord Kuros, Anita can help you too, can she be considered a good woman?

The mother is the same, she can also be praised by him, she gave birth to such a good daughter...'

In Anita's mind, the appearance of her mother serving that man while drinking often appeared. Although she just looked at him, her face was full of joy.

Perhaps for that adult, they are not partners with special meaning, but for Anita, the other party is her hope and future to live forward.

"Quack quack quack!!!"

Snow applauded frantically in his heart, not only in praise of such a brave and fearless lady, but also in admiration for the bastard Kuros.

"You XX, an old man who is so old can actually do mass killings, mother-daughter killings... and can make people fascinated."

According to Miss Anita's self-report, I am afraid that she was not yet an adult when she fell in love with Kurus!

That red-haired masked bastard is a real punishment!
The rabbi and the search team around him had already involuntarily made an O-shaped mouth, as if fascinated by the story, with admiration written all over their faces.

I don't know if it's for Miss Anita or for Kuros.

It can only be said that he really deserves to be the legendary Marshal of the Black Order.

In the story narrated by Miss Anita, Kuros was portrayed as a stalwart and glorious hero, which was admired by the unknown search team members and other surviving volunteers.

But every time he saw everyone's admiring expressions, Snow would feel a stomach ache.

Sometimes I can't help touching the back of my head and the wallet in my arms...

"Jiujiujiu! I'm sorry to interrupt you, we have arrived at the border of Dongying, and we will reach Edo in a day or so!"

Assistant Q's shrill voice came from below, and it was also listening to the story the whole time, only because he was a demon, plus it was a prop modified by Kuros.

So there is no empathy like other human beings.

"One day? It's pretty fast."

Snow nodded, then turned his head and walked down the cabin.

"I'll go downstairs to rest for a while, and everyone should prepare to recharge their batteries. After all, it's not surprising to encounter demons here anytime."

According to what Q assistant said, Dongpu has become the Earl of the Millennium's gu farm, and Edo has become his base camp for making demons. Since you have come to the enemy's lair, you must be prepared for encounters at all times.

"Phyllis, please leave the deck to you. Belin uses the crystal ball every two hours to see if there is anything particularly troublesome?"

By the way, if you can't see anything, don't force it. After all, this is the territory of the Earl of the Millennium, and that guy is the world's top legendary magister anyway. "

The base camp of the Earl of the Millennium cannot be understood literally. It would be a big mistake to think that there is only one "many" of demons in it.

Aside from the power of [Holy], magic is also an extremely powerful force in this world, and the spell system of the Crow Army is only a part of magic.

The Earl of the Millennium himself is undoubtedly a master of magic, and even the creation of demons is composed of a considerable part of the magic system.

Now, in Snow's eyes, the sky in Japan is full of magical arrays like enchantments, and a slight rash move may trigger a trap or an alarm-like mechanism.

Maybe Edo has already been covered by various magic cages, blocking prophecies, or other enchantments with special abilities.

Especially the space inside gives people a fragmented feeling, as if the space of this world has been punched and full of holes.

Even Utopia Ark couldn't use his unique monitoring mechanism to fully spy on the situation inside.

"The space here in Dongying has been folded. Fortunately, Q is the assistant to be the navigator. Otherwise, we might have been discovered long ago."

Thanks to the demons transformed by Kulos who are familiar with the inside, the locals are obviously more familiar with the situation here than outsiders like them.

So far, no human ships have been seen in the waters of Japan.

This place may have become a barren place for human existence.

Originally, before Dongying locked the country, there were more than ten million people here.

And this is the data hundreds of years ago. At the beginning, because of the frequent wars in the world, the daimyo ordered his country to close the country, ignore foreign affairs, and be absolutely neutral.

But so many years have passed, but there has been no new change from Dongpu, and people's impression of them is still nearly a hundred years ago.

However, it is impossible for a country to have no progress or change in nearly a hundred years, unless even itself has completely stagnated.

"There are no living people left in this country, and it was already heavily infiltrated when it was still closed to the outside world.

Tens of millions of people have become the nourishment for cultivating demons, and now there are organs and enchantments everywhere here.

A little carelessness will cause some bad things and expose your whereabouts. "

Snow saw clearly the series of crises hidden behind it.

The country of Japan has been abolished here, or they have become history.

In the past, it was not that Snow had never seen a small country that was destroyed in a war, but such a country with a large population in Asia was also wiped out so silently.

What kind of terrifying power did the Earl of the Millennium hide in it?

After informing Phyllis and the others of the series of crises in advance, Snow returned to the cabin, and he did not choose to stay there.

Before entering Edo, he still needs to go back to the Utopia Ark to solve some things...and learn some new things.

Li Nali successfully saved her life by relying on the mythical item Snow gave her—0085—the substitute.

But that's not what Snow wants to see in the end.

Because according to his prediction, this thing should have been passively activated when Li Nali was fighting that Level 3 demon.

After all, Li Nali has never been the opponent of that demon, and Li Nali has received many fatal blows from the enemy.

But 0085—the substitute has never had the effect it should have, that is, the active defense mechanism has been activated.

On the contrary, when Li Nali chose to perish with the enemy, she used her own power to counterattack herself and awakened the active defense mechanism of 0085.

When she launched the second liberation - Tie Jia, she herself was backlashed by the power of [Holy], activating the function of 0085 - the substitute.

However, under the violent storm attack of the Level 3 painter, this piece of equipment seemed to be indifferent, and had no effect.

How is this going?

Snow was holding the obviously damaged earring in his hand - that's right, the shape of this thing has changed again.

"Lu'er, open the equipment storage room and give me a good analysis of this junk. If it's useless, just throw it in the trash."

It was only at this time that Snow vented all his grievances on this dead thing.

Li Nali was hurt like this because the backhand he left behind didn't have the desired effect.

If he had come later, maybe he would really lose the person he cherished.

The equipment storage room was slowly opened. I don't know if it was because Luer became more and more humane. After sensing the captain's resentment, Miss Luer, the artificial intelligence, didn't say any more nonsense.

Instead, he really took a serious look at this so-called mythical equipment with the help of the recovered detection device in the storage room.

After all, time has been too long, and many things may not be preserved as well as he thought, and there are mistakes in the middle, which are also excusable.

"0085—the substitute has suffered damage to varying degrees, but its operating mechanism is still intact and can continue to be used."

Luer's answer made Snow raise his eyebrows, which means that this thing is still a defensive equipment that can function normally.

Originally, he planned to abandon this junk and come to the warehouse to see if he could find one or two new items that could save Li Nali's life.

"Did you measure it correctly? Not long ago, this thing had no effect at all, and the enemy's attack it faced never actively activated its due effect.

On the contrary, it was because of his explosive power that the defensive barrier was activated..."

While talking, Snow threw this little gadget that kept changing its shape into the air, and caught it again.

But soon, he recalled something wrong with his words.

"0085—The replacement is still functioning normally. Although he has been damaged, it is undeniable that it is a mythical item with a fully operational mechanism."

It sounds a bit contradictory, Luer insisted that there is no problem with this piece of equipment, but in practice, it didn't play the role it should play.

So where is the problem?
Mythical items originated in the ancient human period, and they are the most advanced technological products relying on the power system of the old age.

Snow still remembered the introduction to those dusty and oddly shaped objects back then.

"Relying on the power system of the old era..."

Snow squeezed his chin, looking back and forth at the so-called [substitute].

For Li Nali, she obviously suffered a fatal attack from the enemy, and the damage seriously exceeded the threshold set at the beginning, but the [substitute] did not respond.

Does this mean that, in the cognition of [Substitute], the strength of the attack on Li Nali's body is not enough to become the so-called fatal injury...

Or, in its judgment, that force cannot be called an attack, and cannot be judged as an enemy...

"Did the judgment go wrong?"

Snow felt more and more strange. Although this seemed to be a very troublesome thing, Snow just felt that something was wrong...

[Substitute] is indifferent to the power of the devil, but has a stress reaction due to the outbreak of [Holy].

Does this mean that in its loading judgment, the power used and the attack caused by the demon cannot be called an enemy by [substitute].

Instead, it was the power of [Holy] that activated its guard...

"Is there something wrong with the devil, or something wrong with this thing?"

Snow glanced back and forth at other items in this storage room. For some reason, he had the faint feeling that he had grasped something very important.

Whether it is a mythical item or a technological item, most of the items stored in this utopian ark are orphans of that era.

An era of super-ancient humans that no longer has any records, and only a few words on the Utopia Ark can still leave his traces.

These things in the storage room were forged by super ancient humans borrowing the power of the gods and beliefs of that era, and they were passed down in one continuous line.

Just like the shikigami and spirit arts in Asia today, the spells and spells in the central hall are essentially derived or branched from magic.

According to legend, the core power system of that era was the so-called belief in gods.

Believers rely on this power to walk in the world and become supernatural ability users of that era.

The items in the storage room also depend on this power system... so now most of the relics can only lie quietly in the warehouse.

Because in the current era, there is no power system that belongs to that era—the power of faith.

Apart from this kind of power, few mythical items can be driven by the power of other systems.

But being unable to be actively used is one thing, and passive response is another.

[Substitute] is an item that can be used as a passive defense without injecting faith power.
But...the [substitute] that has been successfully bound to Li Nali has no effect when facing the devil.

Does this mean that it does not consider the power used by the devil to be its enemy?
