However, the technology in my hands has just been born not long ago, and everything still needs time to be tested.

Seeing that Corpse No. 006, which he had made by himself, could move freely, Holm directly used magic to deal with the blood stains on the ground.

He will no longer be involved in what happens next. He is just the maker of the corpse. The existence that gives the dead person a chance to take revenge in person is just the maker of the [Corpse].

Now I have to go home as soon as possible. After all, this has exceeded the time the professor set for me to go home. It's amazing. After all, I have followed the professor for many activities late at night. As soon as I return to normal life, Just think of yourself as a little kid.

The huge difference between this daily stupid dad's behavior and the elegant professor in the darkness is so real that people can't help but sigh, and at the same time wonder if all of this is a mask on the professor's face.

As for what kind of shock this resurrected existence will bring to the little overlord, and what kind of impact it will bring to the old noble family, Holm has already made some guesses.

After all, this being who woke up from the corpse is not the boy he once was. Because he is only driven by obsession and instinct, he may have a completely different personality in the eyes of outsiders.

In fact, it is better to say that the character and actions reflected by the corpse are the true side that he most wants to show deep in his heart.

After all, as far as the corpse is concerned, he is just a corpse that has died. He has already died. What else does he have to be afraid of? I know that I don’t have much time left and that I don’t have much time to show myself, so why not show my true self boldly?

Almost every fire of obsession has some regret for not showing his true self. This is why basically every zombie looks completely different from his former self when he was born.

Please remember:

[Corpses] are not living beings, their essence is still corpses.

The [Corpse] is not a being with a soul, it is just a body standing there.

[Corpses] are not the humans who once smiled at you. They are just the remnants of the dead. They are two completely different individuals, just using the same body.

Finally, it is aimed at Holm himself: he will never create an "immortal" [Corpse].

Holm lowered his head and walked on the road with thick haze. His leather boots made a slightly naughty sound when they came into contact with the stone ground. However, no idiot would be stupid enough to make himself a target of a crime. Otherwise, I have to let that person experience what it means to have a fist the size of a sandbag that can penetrate the chest.

After all, not taking action yourself means that the guy has malicious intentions. In this case, there should be no problem in filling the reserve raw material library of corpses by becoming a corpse maker, right?

If you want to take action against anyone, you must carefully consider the consequences. Those who do not even consider the consequences, and do not even have the consciousness to kill the murderer, have no mood to listen to their regretful words afterwards.

After returning to the house, Holm did not go through the front door. Instead, he quietly opened the window of his house from the side, just like a teenager who was about to sneak out to play at night and then sneaked back. In fact, it was to avoid attracting the attention of the professor. attention, thereby avoiding a round of preaching.

But just after Holm sat at the window and took off his cowhide boots, a figure appeared in front of Holm, causing Holm's heart that was pumping working fluid to beat violently.

After seeing the figure in front of him clearly, Holm breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out to be 002. I was shocked."

"Oh? What do children who don't go home at the designated time and play in the dark night of this sinful London have to be afraid of?"

Chapter 171: The show is ready to begin

After hearing the next sentence, Holm's heart started to relax again, and a somewhat helpless expression appeared on his face. Of course, all of this was based on the current situation and the simulation of the reaction of living people.

Of course it was the professor who said this. The kerosene lamp was gently lit. The professor was sitting on the sofa, reading a book carefully. The whole family atmosphere was like a serious old father and a man who did not come home on time. Naughty son, but this is just a simulated illusion for Holm, but what about the professor?

Is this silly dad-like feeling true or false?

Because Holm himself understands human emotions, but cannot empathize with them, it is difficult to distinguish the true and false of a person's emotions. There is nothing wrong with saying that he does not understand human hearts.

Of course, the deathly silence that flashed across those eyes could not be hidden from the professor's eyes. Regarding this point, the professor could not help but feel helpless in his heart. He sincerely regarded the artificial man in front of him as his junior, but This is only the first year that the two of them have been together, and there is still time in the future.

Sincerity can always be exchanged for sincerity. After all, it has been less than a year since the child was born.

Speaking of which, the professor sometimes envied Home's characteristics. The only ones who could use the brain as an analytical machine were Home and the Corpse. Yes, the professor did not define the child in front of him as a Corpse. The professor always believed that the child in front of him was a Corpse. This child is different from those pure corpses that rely on burning obsessions to act.

The professor sighed softly, and then picked up the black tea from the side.

"Holm, I hope you can understand my worry. After all, once your situation is known to the magician, no one knows what the consequences will be. The most likely possibility is to control you for research. From your I have developed the perfect technology to make a body like yours."

The professor's eyes seem to have seen through everything. There are not many good magicians. Those guys are just existences wearing human skin. What kind of face is hidden under that human skin? Haha, they are probably all a group of animals working to achieve their own goals.

"If there is such a thing as a devil in this world, it is probably a magician who takes off human skin."

After sighing with emotion, the professor closed the book in his hand, then put away his serious expression, and pointed at No. 002 standing not far away. At this moment, No. 002 kept wiping the table.

"No. 2 has been doing the same thing since this afternoon. It hasn't changed for a long time. We can't let her keep doing this."

Holm rubbed his cheeks to remove his emotions from the naughty child, and then walked to No. 2. After taking off his glasses, the fire of obsession was burning in No. 2's body. It is reflected in the sight. At this moment, the fire of obsession has become the size of a flickering candle and will soon be completely extinguished.

This means that in one or two days, No. 2 will come to the end of this "second life". In itself, No. 2 was a prototype that he randomly found in the suburbs and made a prototype of a corpse that still had this obsession. , and No. 1 before that was a complete failure.

And the obsession of No. 2 is just to live a peaceful life for a period of time. This obsession is consumed very quickly. Yes, when the remains of the body have completed what they want to do, the fire of the corpse's obsession will disappear. Rapid consumption, No. 2 is such a representative. You need to know that the shelf life of a corpse is generally four years, but No. 2 only maintained operation for less than half a year.

"No. 2's time has come. Just like No. 1 who failed before, they will return to dust and fall into eternal sleep. One day I will do the same."

Holm took out a small jar from the cabinet nearby, preparing to collect the powder formed after No. 2 was broken two days later, and then bury it in the ground.

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust? Holm, you shouldn't walk ahead of me, an old man, right? Otherwise, I, as a father, will be very sad."

Holm looked at the professor's eyes that looked directly at him, and finally nodded seriously. The old man in front of him could be regarded as his concern in this world. He belonged to him and not his original body, so he would be very happy. Cherish this bond.

On the other side, when the little bully followed his aristocratic father and a group of people to the school secretly to prepare to dispose of the body, he did not find a trace of blood on the ground. No matter how he searched, he found nothing unusual, but the little bully had Make sure there is nothing wrong with your eyes.

The sticky blood and the eyeballs that he crushed were both real.

The old nobleman frowned. Even if someone had handled the scene, the scene would not be so clean. However, the old nobleman believed in science. Instead of letting him believe that the corpse was resurrected, everyone believed that someone had carefully handled the scene, and then Prepare to use this matter to blackmail them.

In this case, just pretend that your legitimate son has chosen to run away from home. As long as you spread this rumor and insist that you and your favorite son do not know about the death of your legitimate son, as long as there is no evidence, there will be no evidence. Way to arrest them.

"Let me confirm with you again. Are you sure that the kid fell down from upstairs and broke his neck?"

The old nobleman did not doubt that his favorite son was dazzled. Although his son was spoiled by him, he would never lie to himself on such an important matter, and he was definitely not the kind to show up in a hurry. Hallucinating people.

"Of course, Dad! You have to believe me, that guy really fell down and broke his neck!"

After hearing his son's confirmation again, the old nobleman smiled and said, "By cleaning this place so clean, doesn't it help us remove the evidence? It sounds like my unfilial son ran away from home secretly. , and then I don’t know where I broke my neck, I just have to insist on it!”

The old nobleman turned around and said, "I'm going to finish this matter now. You should pay attention to what you should and shouldn't say at school. Do you understand?"

Seeing his son nodding, the old nobleman used his cane and secretly left the campus.

No one noticed in the woods on the side, but the originally obedient legitimate son was standing behind the tree, gently pulling away his tie, and his whole temperament began to become wanton and crazy.

"Are you ready? The show is about to begin. After all, I don't have that much time."

Chapter 172: Tooth for Tooth

When the second day came, the little bully was walking in the academy, his eyes still filled with a bit of sadness. Although his father said to treat everything as if nothing had happened, how could he treat it as if nothing had happened? That was indeed something I had personally facilitated. At the moment, I could only tell myself as much as possible not to care or think about it.

"Is there such a handsome person in our school?"

"Even if he's not top-notch handsome, this feeling of freedom and unrestrainedness is really attractive... Do you plan to ask for the address and then write a letter?"

"Huh? Why do I think he looks a bit like the person before?"

The little bully raised his head and stared at the words of these girls. He knew that at some point another boy with good looks or good temperament had arrived on campus.

Although I didn’t know who this boy was, I happened to be in a bad mood at the moment. The old bully clenched his fists and walked towards the direction where the girls were discussing. At the same time, he was still looking for excuses in his heart. Don’t blame him. He had a bad temper, and if he wanted to blame it, it was the boy who got angry at him at this time.

I have been very unhappy these past two days, and Fist must vent his anger.

The little bully directly pushed away a few girls who were chatting and focused on the position where these girls' eyes were before. After seeing the person standing there, the anger in his heart disappeared instantly, replaced by panic and dissatisfaction. understand.

How can it be? ! That person jumped from the window while watching it with his own eyes! He touched his chest with his own hands to confirm that his heartbeat had stopped. He dug out those eyes with his own hands. Why are these eyes gone at this moment? The previous unrepentant look was replaced by clear confidence, and even There is also a bit of freedom and madness.

He had been submissive before, and his bent body had stopped. He was no longer wearing old clothes, but fashionable and cutting-edge clothes. But on his face, which originally looked dejected and weak, at this moment, only The most frightening thing is that there are no signs of injury on his exposed arms and cheeks!

Is this guy in front of me a human or a ghost?

The trace of fear in the little overlord's eyes was of course captured by No. 6, who even showed a weird smile to the little overlord. As for the clothes on his body, of course they were all the savings that this body had accumulated before. Now that this body no longer needs to eat, to a certain extent, many of the necessities of life can be saved.

The most important thing is that this body only has a few years at most, so what's the use of keeping the money? Oh, it may be of some use, that is to buy yourself a cemetery. This does not cost much money in this era. You only need to find a remote church and pay a fee to reserve a place for yourself.

[One of the obsessions of Corpse 006 is that even if one day he is destined to die, he never wants to be buried with members of this family again. 】

Regarding the burial of this body in the cemetery in the future, he has entrusted it to a detective agency. Although there will be popular detectives in this era, more detectives are still doing some piecemeal things. Rather than being a detective agency, It might as well be called PepsiCo, but I have all kinds of connections and can do a good job when I receive a commission. This situation is quite satisfying.

In addition, why you dress up like this is also related to obsession.

[Corpse 006 has the second obsession, proving that he is definitely no worse than the Little Overlord. 】

No. 6 walked towards the little bully and waved his hand at the same time, with a mocking smile on his face. Seeing the little bully take a step back due to shock and fear, the smile on his face became even bigger. It's interesting, and at the same time, I silently feel worthless for my past self, even though the current him and the past self are two different individuals...

But after all, the current No. 6 is the remnant of the man he once was.

Unlike Holm, who was almost born in a blank shell, the corpses have inherited almost everything about their original bodies, so they will be more empathetic to the person they once were.

"Hey? Look who this is? Mr. Bastard~"

No. 6 gently leaned into the little overlord's ear, and his words were like sharp swords that directly penetrated the point in the little overlord's heart that he least wanted to face. The so-called real critical hit could not be more harmful than this.

As Holm has analyzed before, all the irritability and arrogance of this little bully are to cover up the almost hidden inferiority in his heart. This inferiority has always been hidden deep in his heart, hiding in the darkest corner, being Abandoned in the deepest part of the dust, a place even the little overlord has forgotten.

As long as this inferiority complex is not exposed to the sun, he will still be the most beloved child of that glamorous nobleman.

But now this shadow of low self-esteem was dragged out of the darkness, directly exposed to the sun, and exposed in front of him. It was as if the person in front of him came to his side and tore him apart. The clothes on his body then tore open his well-hidden wounds.

The little bully also ignored the fear in his heart at this time, and directly raised his fist and waved towards No. 6 in front of him. He punched as usual, aiming straight towards the cheek, and once he hit, he would It can leave a bruise mark that cannot be removed within a week.

However, the result this time was different. No. 6 directly raised his hand. Regardless of his current personality, the analytical power of his brain, and the reaction ability of his body that reached the theoretical limit of the human body, he could easily squeeze this fist in in hand.

Even this time he chose to fight back, clenching the palm of his fist, and continuously increasing the force of the contraction. This powerful force even caused the bones of the little overlord to begin to slightly dislocate, and pain followed, making the little overlord's His face began to become distorted.

On the contrary, No. 6 watched all this with great interest. It was amazing that at this moment, the relationship between the two of them was finally reversed.

"Did you not eat? Do you only have this little strength?"

No. 6 forced the little bully's hand to his waist, and watched as the other fist that the little bully was about to swing directly grabbed the wrist of the other hand. At the same time, he knelt forward and kicked hard with a knee. Hit the bully in the stomach.

Seeing the little bully bending down in pain, the shadow of his former body appeared in No. 6's eyes. Tooth for tooth, eye for eye, the fire of obsession burning in his body was extinguished a little.

Chapter 173: An eye for an eye

"Although I really want to slowly return the experience of more than ten years to you over decades, but unfortunately, I don't have time to play with you slowly. I know that you are very angry and confused now, I’m not going to explain anything to you, so let’s go back to class now. When today’s class is over, I’ll be waiting for you in the woods.”

At this moment, No. 6's eyes became exactly the same as when the body died. The look in his eyes at this moment shocked the Little Overlord.

"Of course you can go back to your father crying and shouting now. I will be happy to publicize your identity as an illegitimate child and the way you ran away in despair to the entire campus and the entire street, haha——!!"

No. 6's expression looked a little sick, even a little crazy, while the little bully's eyes revealed a sentence, "How dare you?"

"What am I afraid of? I crawled back from hell. As a person who died once, what else am I afraid of?"

After saying that, No. 6 let go of his hand, looked at a young man who was walking towards the teaching building and waved.

This young man was none other than Holmes. After Holmes saw the current state of the boy in front of him, a smile appeared on his face. Really, he had been worried for so long yesterday. After all, what Mr. Cullors said made sense. What is being tested is the human heart. The bully may become even more aggressive towards the boy in front of him in the future.

Now it seems that the relationship between the two people has completely reversed.

He understands that this kind of bullying is not correct, but he also learned a sentence during the two years on the ship, don't endure others' hardships, and don't persuade others to be good. In his opinion, this little bully is being bullied in turn. It can be regarded as a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is unpleasant.

Holmes even patted No. 6 on the back with an appreciative smile on his face. How could he remain silent when he was bullied?

At this time, Holmes didn't notice at all that when he gently patted No. 6's back, No. 6 didn't even show a wry expression due to the pain of the wound. Don't forget, this body was there yesterday. , but there was a deep wound on the back. This kind of wound cannot be healed in just one day.

And during the whole day of the course, No. 6's performance was extremely positive. Whether it was musical instruments or mathematical knowledge, all of this crushed the little bully. What a joke, after all, their heads can It is used like an analytical machine, so this method of use cannot surpass a real genius, but it is obvious that the Overlord is not.

In this process, the fire of obsession in No. 6's body is being further depleted.

Soon, under the admiration of everyone around him, the main obsession of No. 6 was reduced to the last one.

[Obsession Three, Revenge]

Perhaps because the original person of No. 6 was the first person Holmes helped after coming to the academy, Holmes paid extraordinary attention to No. 6 today. It was precisely because of this attention that Holmes soon discovered question.

Not to mention that during the exercise, the wounds on his body did not have any impact. A subtle sense of disobedience always enveloped No. 6's body.

After the course ended, No. 6 and Bully avoided the crowd and walked toward the woods. Holmes secretly climbed up. Perhaps there were many guesses in Holmes's mind, but the duel between the two was about to take place. As a guess, the absolute proportion is not significant.

Yes, No. 6 was going to have a duel with the little overlord. He threw his white gloves forward, and there were two open-edge knight swords that he found on the ground.

Before Holmes could react, the duel between the two men had already begun.

Remember to never compete with corpses in terms of strength and speed. They have already lost the ability to easily reach the theoretical limit of the human body without all the sequelae. Although their durability will be reduced, at least because there is no pain. During the outbreak, they will not be affected.

Especially when these zombies only have one last obsession left to fulfill, they can use their bodies without any worries and unscrupulously.

This duel ended neatly. There was no second ending. Well, maybe there was a gun in the hands of this little overlord, and he could pull the trigger two minutes faster than the human body. The bullet went right through No. 6's head.

But the fact is that the weapon in No. 6's hand was cut into two pieces together with the knight's sword in the Little Overlord's hand and the Little Overlord's neck.

After doing all this, No. 6 turned his attention to Holmes, "That person has always wanted to say thank you again, but he has no chance."

When Holmes ran to No. 6 and gently touched No. 6's body with his fingers, all the obsessions had been completed. The body of the corpse whose obsession fire was extinguished will turn into dust, just like the legend says that when it encounters the sun, it will turn into dust. Like a vampire with flying ash.

Of course, Holmes had heard some rumors about the supernatural and mysterious world, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

The figure of Holm flashed through Holmes's mind from time to time, but he gently shook his head and put it aside, because there was no evidence to prove that the big boy who accidentally appeared behind him and said a few words to him had anything to do with it. Such ability.
