Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"It's been five years since no one joined the council. One dies and one dies, the power of the Holy See grows, and there are more and more people. If one dies, there will be a hundred more. The longer the time, the worse it will be for the council," Chi said. Feichi explained, "While there is still enough manpower, a final counterattack, under the name of the Undead Witch, will definitely attract the main force of the Holy See, and turn the main force into ordinary people of any ability. Some small fish and shrimps that escaped by chance will be poisoned by dark lines to deal with it."

After hearing this, Koizumi Hongzi was silent for a while, and quickly said in a relaxed tone, "They succeeded, and probably since then, no one in the Holy See has been able to produce the so-called power of light in their bodies, which can be regarded as completely killing those guys. roots."

"The Holy See will also help them," Chi Feichi said.

Koizumi Hongzi was taken aback, "Help them?"

"The members of the Holy See are human beings, and they have selfishness." Chi Feichi smiled slightly, "The people who participated in the hunting of the undead witch must be high-ranking members of the church. The power they are proud of is even cut off from the root, or in other words, genetically, of the possibility of producing magical power, and their descendants are the same, they can only be ordinary people, then, in order to keep their status, even if they face it The opponents in the world and the opponents in the future are the same as myself."

"So, even if some people are not infected, their opponents will also infect them," Koizumi Hongzi suddenly thought of a question, "But if people in the Holy See are infected with this toxin and lose their strength, wouldn't they be infected?" Are you in danger of being overthrown?"

"That's right, with their huge power, it's impossible to let this happen. Although they can find ways to research the antidote, a large number of people lose their power. This must not be known by other forces. The fastest and safest way , is to make everyone the same, to make this world completely free of such things as magic power," Chi Feichi said, "Don't forget, Phoebe and the others discussed before that there is a high probability that a man-made material infected with this toxin can be used to make a magic weapon. They are reluctant to use their own people as materials, and they have not captured enough people from the Holy See, but the Holy See has enough people to sacrifice. They have so many people, and they sacrifice a small part to make a virus that infects the whole world. Toxin, a toxin that will not affect health but will cause people to lose their magic power for generations, Phoebe and the others can think of it, and the Holy See can also think of it, combined with the situation of our time, the Holy See probably did this."

Koizumi Hongzi took a breath, "That means..."

Chi Feichi smiled and said softly, "Hongzi, the era of magic is over..."

This is the craziest part of all the council's plans.

In order to protect the same race and descendants who fled to various places, he did not hesitate to end a period of civilization.

He really liked these people more and more.

Koizumi Hongzi was silent for a while, "Why do I feel that you are suddenly excited?"

Chi Feichi directly denied Sanlian, "No, how could it be possible, it's because you felt wrong."

"Really?" Koizumi Hongzi was dubious, and then asked in doubt, "Then what's the matter with me? The people of the Red Magic family have indeed lost their magic power slowly, and there are also ordinary generations, but haven't I awakened the magic power? ?”

Chi Feichi: "You may have been genetically mutated and become a fish that slipped through the toxin."

Koizumi Hongzi: "..."

The term "fish that slipped through the net" is hard to hear.

...

What happened afterwards, the two could not bear witness.

Phoebe couldn't use her non-human form to meet her sister, so she entrusted Aklan to bring the bone jade to Per.

Pell has lived in the small town for more than ten years, and has a five-year-old son. He listens to his sister's legend every day, secretly hides this relationship in his heart, and completely disguises himself as a believer of the Holy See.

Pell was unavoidably surprised when Aklan approached the door.

"Sister asked you to bring this to me?" Pell turned his head to look at the room next door where his son was proficient, looked at the man in black robe in front of him, and asked worriedly in a low voice, "How is she? Is something wrong?"

"She's fine, Pell, but everything should be over. She told you to leave here as soon as possible with the bone jade. The last remaining members of other families will withdraw one by one. The bone jade is the goal of the Holy See. Phoebe originally wanted to Leave this world with it, but it is a sacred object that has protected the Montgomery family for generations. She is reluctant to let it disappear like this, and hopes that it can bless you, but you have to hide it well so that no outsiders can find it. "Aklan treated her like her own little sister, soothing her gently, "Don't make her worry, and don't feel sorry for her, everyone will be with her, of course, so am I."

Pell raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, nodded heavily, and asked again, "When will I leave?"

"Let's go now, I will arrange the way to go abroad for you, and you have to go on the rest of the way, the farther you go, the better," Aklan said, his expression became strict, and he warned, "Don't look back .”

Pell packed his things overnight, only taking valuables and some necessities, and left early in the morning with his son.

Go out of the city, leave this country, stay somewhere for a while, find the next destination, and start again...

Along the way, there were also some rumors about the 'Dark Council'.

I heard that the Holy See has finally found out the lairs of those demons and organized a manpower expedition.

It is said that this battle was very tragic, and the Pope died in this battle.

I heard that the Dark Council was destroyed. After many years, the church paid a heavy price and finally destroyed this dark existence.

I heard that after the incident, the Holy See found the experimental site in the lair of the Dark Council. The scene was horrific and many people were persecuted.

I heard that the Holy See burned down the evil elder trees there, and organized many people to pray for those who were persecuted.

It is said that there are remnants of the dark council, some banshees lurking in the church, hurting the knights and missionaries who trusted them, and were executed for this.

Hearing that a banshee was still dying, she laughed happily. This is the characteristic of being polluted by demons.

It is said that……

As Pell traveled farther and farther away, he heard less and less relevant news. The children he brought with him were growing up, and the world around him was also changing. Some machines that facilitated human labor were invented and gradually became popular.

Pell found a branch of the Montgomery family that was previously separated. The other party was influenced by the Montgomery witch and had a difficult life, but he was still willing to help the tribe in distress.

With the help of his tribe, Per boarded the boat with his one-year-old son and came to a foreigner's mansion near the sea.

There are quite a few people here who come from all over the world and have crossed the ocean like them, and there are also many people who are unwilling to mention the past.

After Pell settled down incognito, he put the bone jade into a box, concealing his identity as a descendant of a witch. Because of his experience of living in a small town for more than ten years, he could not be found out about the past.

Pell's son grew up on the run, settled here, married and had children here.

The world is still in turmoil, but it seems to be calming down a little bit. People here will also encounter difficulties. Compared with life and death, it is not a big deal, and they are solved one after another.

Here, it seems that using herbal medicine to cure diseases and save lives will not be regarded as a witch. After receiving help, Per also picked up the medical skills of the Montgomery family.

When the Montgomery family was in trouble, Per was younger than Phoebe and had learned less.

Chi Feichi originally wanted to remind him, but Pere was startled when he heard the sound of the bone jade in the box, and sincerely prayed that the bone jade would stop ringing.

From then on, Chi Feichi never cared about it.

Pell whispered 'I'm sorry', and hid the box at home, never opened it, but somehow, he bought a small elderberry from a merchant and planted it in the medicine garden.

Compared with Phoebe, Pell has always been careful, gentle and sentimental, just like Sandy back then, who patiently and meticulously studied herbal medicine. After having a son to help support the family, life is not particularly hard. He uses herbal medicine to help people heal In addition to getting sick and earning money to maintain their livelihood, they either go to the beach to look at the sea from a distance, or take care of the elderberries in the medicine garden, watching the elderberries in a daze.

Maybe it was because the longevity rule of the Montgomery family was broken, or maybe because Pell suffered too much and hid too much sadness in his heart, Pell's life span was shorter than that of his predecessors.

Although I lived to be in my early eighties, it is considered a long life in this era...

Before he died, Pell found his son and grandson, and handed over the box containing bone jade to the children. He briefly talked about the past when the Montgomery family was treated as witches, persecuted, and he was forced to come here. Too many buried pasts, so I close my eyes.

Pell's son still has some memories of what happened back then, but he doesn't know that the undead witch is actually his aunt, and he doesn't even know the original address of the Montgomery family, only remembering the address of the collateral branch.

Time gradually buried the truth.

The box containing the bone jade was directly handed over to Marvin, Pell's grandson, after Pell's death.

This year, Marvin was an optimistic, generous and generous boy. He learned medical skills from his grandmother, and learned from scholars in the mansion. He accumulated a lot of wealth for the family, and gradually grew into a helpful leader. Together, the area where the mansion is located was built into a prosperous small port city, and the surname 'Mongo Marie' was restored in his later years.

It's a pity that Marvin is also an out-and-out scientist. After profiting from the industrial age, he didn't believe in the story of the witch and the bone jade.

Gradually, people also felt that "witch" was not a topic that should not be mentioned. After hearing about some things about Montgomery's house, they just lamented the turmoil of that era.

Koizumi Hongzi and Chi Feichi floated above the herbal garden together, watching the development of the city, and they didn't feel bored when the time passed by so fast. When Ma Wendu had become a gray-haired old man, he was still talking About Pell.

"Evil child of nature, since Pell said it, the bone jade has not sounded, you are not angry, are you?"

"No, since she has chosen to live an ordinary life, I won't be too troublesome."

Chi Feichi looked at the newly built stone building at the pier.

This is Japan, but the city architecture maintains the European style of the eighteenth century.

The building over there and the nearby streets are exactly the same as the place where he dreamed about his uncle Mitchell, and the early mornings here are often filled with thick fog.

He originally thought that the place in the dream was somewhere in London, but he didn't expect it to be here, and when the bell rang, he was pulled back into a box and swallowed by a white stone, which was also very strange. Like bone jade.

In other words, if he stays like this, one day in the future, he will see people from the Field family coming...
