The Death List Novel - Chapter 39

Chapter 39 Yin And Yang Errors
The fingerprints Baron Albert and Bonny left on the wine glass did not match the fingerprints on the test tube of the medical kit. In other words, the old baron and Bonny did not enter Qin Lun’s room. The person who wanted to investigate the medical kit was still a mystery.

However, there wasn’t much disappointment on Qin Lun’s face. At that time, he had just entered Albert Castle and was only hoping to find a breakthrough through through this small trap. Now that he had become an exorcist, he had obtained a better clue. That person’s identity no longer mattered, and it didn’t matter if there was a breakthrough or not.

Qin Lun stood up and handed the two wine glasses to the maid. He returned to his room and began to think about the prompt from the death list.

It’s not surprising that the mystery of Stephen Albert’s death involves the history of the region. As the de facto ruler of the region, the things the Albert family tried to hide were certainly not that simple.

As for the world storyline mode that had activated the Shattered Star System, it had also turned the Guidance Mission that was originally intended to test the preparatory apostles into a satellite-level world storyline. This should be the harvest Qin Lun had obtained from his tireless search for the secrets of the Albert Clan during this period of time.

Compared to this harvest, Qin Lun was even more interested in the World Origin Seizure License and the associated World Exploration Program mentioned in Articles 100 and 788 of the Law of Fragmentation.

These two Laws of Fragmentation allowed Qin Lun to vaguely guess why the fragmented starry sky had sent apostles into many different worlds to perform so-called missions. He still remembered what Grand Elder Goblin had told him back in the “scavenger” camp.

At that time, Grand Elder Goblin once mentioned that the fragmentary starry sky had all kinds of civilizations. Mechanical civilization, magical civilization, technological civilization, Eastern Immortal Realm, and so on. The shattered starry sky looked like the Creator’s experimental field. Grand Elder Goblin compared it to “a dump abandoned by the Creation God.”

Since it was a garbage dump and possessed many intelligent civilizations, the shattered starry sky was like an independent universe. Naturally, there was no law governing the survival of space and time in other universes. In other words, the shattered starry sky didn’t have any natural law resources to sustain the existence of the normal universe. The creator, who didn’t know if he had it or not, only treated it as a place to store rubbish.

Under the pressure of survival, the shattered starry sky could only rely on plundering the natural law resources of other normal worlds to survive. Then what kind of living resources does a spacetime world need?

Ignoring material factors, Qin Lun believed that it was most likely the world origin mentioned in the Laws of Fragmentation, that is, the laws of space and time that propelled the development and change of a world. In other words, it is the storyline of events happening all over the world at all stages of history.

The Broken Starry Sky sent a large number of apostles into other worlds and spacetime, giving them various levels of missions to explore and dig out the historical storylines of that world, and by accelerating, delaying, or even changing its historical development, they plundered the historical origin of this world.

The higher the apostle’s level of mission, the more worldly exploration he would gain, the greater the origin of the world he would plunder from the shattered starry sky, and the richer the apostle’s mission rewards would naturally be.

Although all of this was still Qin Lun’s guess, it was enough to convince him.

After thinking about the content of this part, Qin Lun quickly focused his attention on another hint that made him feel very interesting.

That was the explanation for the story of the satellite-level world!

A satellite-level world storyline directly involved the history of the entire Audi region. Then would the Star Traveller and Star World storyline mentioned in the death list affect the future history of the entire Principality, the entire continent, and the entire world?

The mystery of Stephen Albert’s death could never have had such an effect, not even the Albert family.

Up to now, of all the incidents he had come into contact with, only two had developed to the extent that they affected a country or even a continent. One was the Stone Statue Ghost incident, and the other was the strange plague!

The Stone Statue Ghost incident had contacted the witches. Although Qin Lun had never seen the witches’ dark magic before, judging from their combat prowess, if there were tens of thousands of statue ghosts in Maya Forest, it would definitely affect the entire country.

As for the kind of disease that could spread through the air, once they left the sparsely populated Audi á region, which was surrounded by mountains and forests. It would only be a matter of time before it spread to the whole continent and the whole world if one entered a densely populated and well-connected big city.

Although there were exorcism organizations in this world, civilization had slowly entered the embryonic stage of modern science and technology. There were countless ways to suppress the spread of epidemics. However, it is undeniable that the most serious consequences of the spread of the epidemic will have a profound impact on the world’s historical development.

Qin Lun slowly fell asleep with a myriad of fantasies about the future history of this world.

At this moment, outside the window of Qin Lun’s room facing the cliff, there was a white figure floating. The figure looked at the sleeping youth lying on the bed and slowly shook his head, disappointingly disappearing into the darkness.

What Qin Lun didn’t know was that after he signed the exorcist oath under the name of Wellington Stan, he actually lost an opportunity. Fully understand the mystery of Stephen Albert’s death and unravel the biggest secret of the Albert family.

Ever since Qin Lun entered Albert Castle, the white figure had been observing and probing. This was the only young doctor in the Audi region who could cure the disease virus.

Until that night, after Qin Lun and Frank killed the Stone Statue Ghost, it finally decided to find a chance to truly meet the young man and entrust the huge secret that had been troubling it to this young doctor who could cure the disease.

However, after Qin Lun signed the exorcist oath, he believed that the doctor’s position was already linked to the Albert family. He could no longer trust each other, so he naturally could not meet Qin Lun again.

Lying on the bed, Qin Lun’s body emitted a divine light that could not be seen by the naked eye. This was the power of faith of the believers of the “Immortal” and the power of protection of the inheritance of the exorcist.

The exorcist oath scroll that Qin Lun casually signed wasn’t a joke. It was permanently bestowed with a “life” attribute by the “Immortal” believers. At the same time, it also had the Albert Clan’s exorcist heritage that had existed for thousands of years.

This was the fundamental power of an exorcist to resist witches and magical creatures. It was also the biggest difference between an exorcist and an ordinary human.

Qin Lun slept soundly this night and even let out a baby-like snore. After entering Albert Castle, for the first time, he didn’t have to worry about being attacked by Mo Ming at night.

The next morning, after breakfast, Bonny sent him a private invitation!

“Is there anything I can do for you, Master Bonny?” Qin Lun followed Bonny to the lobby of another auxiliary castle.

Unlike the Vice Castle Hall he entered last time, this place didn’t have any exorcist information books, it was more like a spacious arena. There were many cold weapons and crossbows placed around him. Of course, there were also a small number of guns fired in this era.

“Doctor Stan, in a few days, when the nearby exorcists arrive, we will be entering Maya Forest!” Bonny took out two knights’ swords from the wall and threw one of them to Qin Lun. He smiled and said, “Although we don’t want a doctor to participate in the battle, if you have some self-preservation ability, it will help us even more.”

Dang! A violent metal collision rang out in the hall. Bonnie nimbly jumped sideways and hooked his right foot. Kieran immediately staggered and fell to the ground.

Bonny shook his head disappointedly. Although firearms and crossbows had been developed in this era, swordsmanship was still the first choice to measure an exorcist’s combat strength.

Qin Lun did not know any swordsmanship, nor did he conceal anything. An exorcist like Bonny, who had been trained in swordsmanship since childhood, could already be called a master of swordsmanship. He could tell the doctor’s background with a single glance.

Although Qin Lun’s body seemed to be more agile and his strength was decent, his martial skills were not on the stage. After testing his swordsmanship, even if he didn’t need to see a doctor to use any other weapons, Bonny could still conclude that Qin Lun didn’t have any skilled martial skills. He was an ordinary person with a decent physical foundation.

After trying this out, Bonny stopped competing with Qin Lun and began to seriously teach the doctor some evasive movements to protect himself.

“It’s too difficult to learn a superb martial skill in these few days!” Bonny smiled and said to Qin Lun, “However, I will teach you some evasion techniques. Most of the dark magic of witches is long-range attacks, and the magical creatures they use the most are stone ghosts. Being proficient in the evasion techniques I have taught you can at least increase your self-defense.”

Of course, Bonny still hadn’t said a word. Qin Lun had some self-preservation ability, so he wouldn’t drag himself down. Thinking of this, the blonde youth’s resentment was extremely great. It wasn’t his idea to let a doctor join the scouting team.

Once a fierce battle broke out, an ordinary person like Qin Lun would definitely drag his feet. He also had to ensure the safety of the doctors. After all, Qin Lun was the only one in the entire Audi region who could cure that damn disease.

Even though his body was covered in dust, Qin Lun still had a smile on his face as he excitedly practiced the techniques Bonny had taught him. This was a completely new experience. The combat skills of the exorcists were very different from the martial skills taught by Evelyn Boguang Academy.

During their half-month stay at Evelyn Boguang Academy, the elves had mainly taught the preparatory apostles some flexible movements, as well as archery skills. They had yet to begin imparting formal martial skills to them.

This was also very normal. Most of the preparatory apostles were ordinary people. Compared to time-consuming martial skills, learning some flexible body movements and archery skills could increase their viability.

Qin Lun spent the next few days with Bonny until the afternoon of the fifth day …
