Public trial?You deserve it too!

"—Your order, Your Excellency the Major General of the Empire."

Armor saluted him.

Claude turned his head and looked at the mage leader.

"You just lead them on."

The man reminded softly.

Claude nodded, and looked at the armor in front of him again.

"Your department will go to the fortress at the front of this cave, and shoulder the responsibility of fighting chaos."

"Understood—the Legion of Fontainebleau, advance!"

The Major General of Corsica saluted him again, turned around and began to give orders to his Mithril Legion.

There were no unnecessary noises, and the sound of cold metal friction filled the entire cave with a sense of rhythm.

Claude watched these mithril armors walk in front of him, and noticed that these armors were slightly different from the armor on his body. Obviously, these armors did not have some designs that were slowly changed later, and they were obviously old-fashioned armors.

But they also have a design that is different from ordinary mithril armor.

These armors are not like these wearable armors, which take care of the physical strength and body coordination of human beings—these armors, no, it should be said, these mithril puppets are made to entrust these souls and to fight

Claude now finally knows why the old emperor always has a sure-fire expression on the matter of the same continent.

Because no matter whether the enemy works hard or not, the empire really has Gundam.

But now, apart from this horrifying truth, a more pressing question lay before Claude.

"Why, you ignored the difference between these souls and these armors before—"

"my student?"

This question was actually conveyed to the system by Claude.

I was originally writing slowly, and the book is really good if it is put together, so I have never mentioned things like follow-up subscriptions before. Some readers said they wanted to see the data, so I released it.

The main reason is that there will be a million words next month. If you want to get a good recommendation, you need data, so I hope everyone will subscribe automatically in August and kill the book.

break defense?Really not, if I broke the defense, I would have already escaped.

What I want to fight for is a market that barely existed before Hedgehog Cat. Now it seems that the upper limit of the market has been tested by me, so I just make complaints about it and really not many people watch it.

The Burning World: Chapter 267 Chapter 240 Chapter [-] Human-to-human transmission of barbecued pork virus

【...】

"..."

【...】

"...Have you thought about how to quibble?"

[Sorry I was wrong. 】

"Where did you go wrong?"

[I was negligent, because this part of the material was clearly stated to be Mithril armor, so I just scanned it roughly when scanning, and found that it was a human form, so I didn't go further. 】

Claude's heart fluctuated for a moment, but neither his actions nor his expressions changed.

He continued the conversation without changing his face.

"Then why didn't you even discover those deposited souls?"

[This... seems to be some kind of strange secret technique, which can completely integrate the spirit body into the mithril, with almost no activity.If I just scan roughly, I can't find it at all. I have to recover the magic power of these mages. 】

Claude was taken aback—this time he really showed his heart and actions.

"You mean, this is a way to hide from your scan?"

The system also realized how strange it was when it admitted its mistake just now.

[This... is indeed the case. At least when I scanned and calculated the number of Mithril armor several times before, I didn't find any traces of soul storage. 】

Now, even Claude couldn't help but press his temple, only feeling a headache——

broken.

This stupid apprentice of my own family really learned from the good and not from the bad, and he has completely learned his habit of being dark under the lights.

Co-author, you really didn't realize how outrageous things you just said just now?

You are the system, why do you have such behavior as "negligence"?

And...why does it seem that the other party is not aware of this problem in himself?

Looking at Claude's expression, the system felt extremely ashamed.

I actually failed the teacher's trust in the most trustworthy place I have ever been!

【Sorry teacher... I made a big mistake this time. 】

Oh, it’s okay, after a little reaction, I can still find my own shortcomings, and there is a possibility of rescue...

[I shouldn't be so perfunctory in carrying out the task you entrusted to me - with this lesson learned, I will definitely take it more seriously in the future, it's just a secret technique to avoid scanning, and I will definitely be able to find the other party in the future Methods! 】

send!

Claude felt that his pain mask was about to be put on.

Is this the result of your reflection?You are trying to piss me off!

Do I care about this error?What's more, this mistake did not cause any loss at all-what I care about is your thinking!

What exactly does it mean for you to be negligent?Obviously, the souls around the emperor could be scanned in the empire before, but now the souls in these puppets cannot be scanned. Is your function degraded, or is it because the storage method is different that you cannot scan it out?

Thinking back again, when the two of them wandered around the holy city of the Vatican before, they did not find the Pope who must be abnormal. Is it also related to this incident?

Obviously there are so many entanglements, so many questions—and then you figured out that you need to execute my orders more carefully?

Co-authored the char siu virus in this world is really TM contagious?

What about a good student at his age?

Claude sighed, and he once again deeply felt that there is still a long way to go for the system to get out of his hands.

【teacher? 】

"Don't talk yet."

【Why?Why? 】

"Because I don't want to chat with char siu for the time being."

[Hey hey? ? ? 】

--------------------------------------------------

【Uh, so, can this matter involve so much... Teacher, you are so powerful. 】

The corner of Claude's mouth twitched. If the system was in front of him, he would at least give the other party two brains.

He seemed to understand a little bit, what kind of mood the teacher felt when he saw those poor students who were studying hard when he was in school.

Teacher, you are so gentle.

"You still haven't figured out what the problem is?"

Claude sighed.

【...No, my self-examination did not find any abnormalities, and the monitoring agency that came with it did not report any abnormalities. any warnings. 】

The sound of the system is also a bit strange.

"Have you ever been in a similar situation before? Like something you overlooked?"

[Never, only because of lack of experience and being overwhelmed. There is no such behavior as "subconscious neglect" like this time-after all, for us, subconscious situations should not exist. 】

Claude thought about it.

"Then let's put this matter aside for now, and we'll study it carefully when we go back—now, we're going to take a look at the front-line fortress first."

【Yes. 】

They had marched a long time, fed twice, and rested once.

Now, it's time to eat for the last time.

The dwarves gathered their wagons in a circle, and unloaded provisions from the wagons within.The Mithril Knights were loaded on the carriages of the Empire and Theocracy, and the dwarves were responsible for all the supplies.

"Please finish the distributed food in the car array as soon as possible, otherwise it is likely to become something unknown in the next second-and after passing here, until the fortress, we can no longer take anything out of these big cars gone."

The mage leader said.

"Is it because of [Chaos]?"

"Yes, it may be because it has gone deep into the junction. The substances in our world are extremely unstable here, such as food and the like. Except for Mithril, only mages with powerful magic power can continue to protect themselves— —The knight thinks that the body restricts the release of its own magic power, so there may be some changes, which is why only we have entered here."

The commander knew everything about Claude's problems and talked endlessly. Obviously, like Maxim, he had also been ordered by the emperor.

Claude nodded. These big dwarves' carts are all steel carts mixed with mithril, and the items loaded on them are well protected with mithril plates-many of the carts themselves are also forged. Mithril ingots, obviously these are also materials needed by the front line.

After a short break, the team moved forward again.

Occasionally, there would be some noise in front of the team, but it didn't cause any commotion. Obviously, there were some fish that slipped through the fort and invaded here. However, facing the completely targeted Mithril Legion, it couldn't cause any commotion.

Claude was a little curious. After all, he was considered to be standing at the front of the line, but he couldn't see the corpse at all.

"Do Chaos Demons have no corpses?"

He turned to ask the mage beside him.

"It doesn't exist here. The current Chaos Demon is like a highly condensed soul."

He pointed to the mithril knights.

"Mithril is extremely poisonous to them, and even just touching it is like water falling on a red-hot iron plate."

"What if there's enough water?"

Claude pointed.

"The mithril will also be slowly corroded. Mithril without magic support will greatly reduce both damage and durability. This is why the empire uses such extreme methods to reserve troops against chaos."

One question is answered, but the next question immediately arises.

"But it seems that the knights stationed outside shouldn't be able to fight against such demons, right? Also, what did you mean when you said, 'There are no corpses here'?"

The mage leader thought for a while, but it was not the kind of embarrassment to say to Claude, but it seemed to be organizing the language.

"Well... If you want to make an analogy, it can be described as that when these demons pass through this cave, it is like the completion of a painting-at first it is a canvas, and then it slowly has color, With shape, it ends up as a painting."

"The demons in their spiritual state are the canvas, and in the process of passing through this cave, they will gain physical bodies, mutations, and strange abilities—the moment they walk out of the tunnel, they will become a real demon There is no regularity in its shape, appearance, and weaknesses."

"Once they leave the cave, won't Mithril have any additional damage to them?"

Claude got the point.

"There is almost no effect, at least compared with the damage that can be caused to it now, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a big difference."

The knight nodded and temporarily stopped asking.

He already had some clues, Mithril has a special attack against chaos, and think about it again, the first pope was used as a time traveler to deal with chaos, but before him, the whole world had never used Mithril as a mineral. ....

Within ten steps of the poison nest, must there be something to detoxify?

Now he needs to verify his guess with the system.

'Could the birth of Mithril be some kind of [restriction force] produced by the world itself because it was invaded? '

[It is possible that, regardless of whether the world consciousness is born or not, it is an instinctive behavior to fight against the engulfment and assimilation of chaos. Mithril is also very likely to be a special kind born from the origin of the world under this worldview. mineral. 】

Claude nodded slightly. If this inference is correct, then there should be the most abundant mine veins of Mithril around this cave.

He recalled the equipment of the dwarves and the "luxury" of using Mithril alloy as a cart. Obviously, on the side of the dwarves, it can already be seen that their production of Mithril is extremely abundant.
