The Death List Novel - Chapter 62

Chapter 62 Explain
Following Baron Albert into the Judgment Hall, Qin Lun discovered that this was already the top floor of the main castle. The roof was the top of the tower. The hall was square, surrounded by large colored glass windows. Apart from the circles of magic arrays on the ground, there was nothing else on the ground.

After entering the Judgment Hall, many exorcists revealed comfortable expressions. Qin Lun was the only one who didn’t feel anything. However, he immediately felt relieved. When he signed the exorcist oath, the guardian power above did not affect the body of the Laws in the slightest. It only condensed a layer of “magic resistance” on the surface of his body. Naturally, the longevity power of the Judgment Hall would not affect him.

“Nova, Mel, you can say it now!” Baron Albert came to the center of the arena and gestured, “What exactly did you discover in Maya Forest these past few days?”

“Let me tell you!” Myr glanced at Nova and took the initiative to introduce the process of this reconnaissance operation.

There was nothing to say about the first two days of contact with magical creatures. Myr had basically sketched through it, focusing on the process of everyone from disagreement to unanimity. Finally, they split into two teams to divert magical creatures and search for the witch’s cabins. This included the crucial battle between the Oddo team and the witch hunting team.

Myr didn’t participate in the witch hunt, mainly recounting Bonnie and Qin Lun’s reports after they returned to the camp.

“So, you made a major discovery in the witch’s cabin?” Baron Albert’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

Nova and Myr exchanged a glance. Myr took out the witch’s notebook from his bosom and threw it to Baron Albert. All the exorcists remained silent, their gazes focused on the baron.

“… Are you suspecting that the Albert family is colluding with the Maya witches?” Baron Albert flipped through his notes in confusion. He quickly noticed the two pieces of information Qin Lun had specifically drawn up. His expression changed drastically and he was filled with shock and anger.

“No, father, no one suspects the Albert family of colluding with Witch Maya!” Bonny, who had been silent for a long time, finally raised his head and asked firmly, “However, I want to know why the werewolf you gave me will become a human after death!”

“It has restored the human body!” Baron Albert frowned, but did not immediately explain. He swept his gaze over the exorcists and said calmly, “The exorcists who drive non-human beings are not only the Albert Family. I think you all have other questions. Ask them together. I don’t want to answer them one by one like prisoners!”

Seeing Baron Albert’s angry expression, the exorcists fell silent. Even Myr didn’t have the nerve to speak at this time.

“Let me ask. After all, the first person to question the Albert family is me!” Qin Lun walked out from behind the crowd with a smile and nodded at Baron Albert.

“You? Doctor Stan?” Baron Albert looked at Qin Lun in disbelief.

“Baron, you shouldn’t be surprised. Don’t you understand that any doctor who sees Little Miller once must have doubts?” Qin Lun sighed and shook his head. “Especially since you let me see so many medicines left behind by doctors.”

Baron Albert was slightly embarrassed as he said, “They were not harmed by the Albert family. They were harmed by the Albert family.”

“I know, they may have died from the epidemic, not from the Albert family!” Qin Lun nodded lightly. “However, no matter which doctor looked at Xiao Miller, they could immediately deduce that he had been ill for a long time. It was definitely not one or two days when he contracted the disease. And the little fellow had not died of the disease for such a long time, so it was hard not to think that he was the source of the disease.”

Baron Albert fell silent. His expression was somewhat uncertain, and the anger he had shown at the beginning had disappeared.

“According to the witch’s notes, Stephen’s wife is a Mayan witch named Mary Clare, alias Nina. More than a year ago, it was you who led two magical creatures to kill Nina, taking away Stephen and Little Miller. Stephen disappeared and Little Miller was in bed until a strange outbreak broke out in the Odia region.

Qin Lun curled his lips and continued, “The werewolf that humans have turned into is indeed not the focus of our doubts!” What everyone really wants to know is, is the plague in the Audi á region the undying plague that you leaked when you developed magical creatures? “Little Miller has been ill for so long, and none of the other members of the Albert family are sick. Do you have any medicines for immunizing against the disease?”

“So you think that I used Nina’s dark magic to develop magical creatures, resulting in the leakage of the Undying Plague?” Baron Albert’s face turned pale, as if he had received a head-on blow, and he couldn’t help but take two steps back.

“Thomas, no one believes that you can use dark magic to develop magical creatures, but you have to explain to us the cause of Little Miller’s illness, and what medicine did you use to maintain his life for so long?” Lady Nova took a step forward and asked anxiously.

“Nova, even you” Baron Albert took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his expression had calmed down.

‘”I have nothing to say. Werewolves are not magical creatures at all. I can prove it. As for Little Miller’s illness, I can’t explain it. It can only be said that it is because the Albert family members have some special physiques. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Bonny if he has taken any special immunity medicines.”

“That doesn’t prove anything. You can mix that medicine into Bonny’s diet!” Qin Lun narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, “Of course, it’s not that you don’t have the chance to prove your innocence. Since Little Miller can survive until now, I believe that his father, Stephen Albert, is still alive. As long as you can get him to testify …”

“Wellington Stan, you still don’t have the qualifications to ask me to do anything?” Baron Albert glanced at Qin Lun and said coldly.

Qin Lun smiled, took a step back, and hid behind others again.

“Thomas Albert, in the Judgment Hall, the exorcists of the Audi region are no longer under your leadership. They are all equal brothers,” Myr slowly sank his face and took a step forward to block Qin Lun’s path.

“Dr. Stan’s words are our opinion!” Sparks finally appeared in Nuova’s eyes as she clenched her fist the size of an alms bowl. The expressions of the other exorcists also changed as they looked at Baron Albert with some anger.

“So this is the reason why you asked me to open the Judgment Hall …”

Baron Albert was stunned for a moment. He really didn’t expect the exorcists to react like this. It was as if the friendship of comrades in arms in the past was an illusion. In his opinion, the person who was being exorcised should be Qin Lun. Could it be that his decades of friendship with Nova and the others hadn’t reached true trust?

Qin Lun watched coldly from the sidelines, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly. Baron Albert’s reaction wasn’t strange at all. When he first started questioning the Albert family, Nova and the others were indeed stern-eyed and didn’t want to trust him at all.

At that time, Qin Lun had just fought a deathmatch with the Mesa witches, and he had also treated many of the exorcists in the team. From this, it could be seen that these exorcists were deeply attached to the Albert Clan and would not easily abandon each other.

However, the situation was different now. Step by step, the epidemic had forced these exorcists to temporarily put aside their personal relationship with Baron Albert. Their fundamental stand of protecting the human world left them with no choice.

“Father, you must explain everything to us in detail!” Bonny’s expression was extremely serious as he said word by word, “Because the epidemic patient appeared in Han, Sen, Xiao, Zhen!”

“Hansen Town … Hanover District …” Baron Albert’s entire body trembled. His gaze swept across the crowd in front of him, as if he was seeking confirmation of the truth of the news. His expression quickly became dispirited.

“It’s true! Thomas, tell us the truth!” ‘”Perhaps there’s a chance to save her!” Nuova turned her head somewhat unbearably.

“… Alright, since you all insist on knowing, then I’ll tell you!” Baron Albert slowly raised his head and walked towards the back of the hall expressionlessly. “All the exorcists in the Audi region have an understanding that the members of the Albert family tend to age easily. Even if they become exorcists, they will only have the lifespan of ordinary people. However, you never know why!”

“Thomas, is there any secret in this?” Lady Nova’s heart skipped a beat.

“That’s right, not every exorcist in the Albert Clan is easily aging, but only a contemporary baron!” Baron Albert smiled faintly. “It’s just that the Albert Clan has never been very prosperous, and the person in charge of affairs is always the contemporary baron. It’s only after a while that you have this illusion!”

The exorcists frowned slightly and fell into their memories. When they thought about it carefully, it was really like this. For this generation of Albert Family members, Baron Albert had been wandering around for a while. After Stephen’s accident, he returned to Albert Castle.

Stephen Albert had never seen any other exorcists before. Baron Albert had explained that Stephen did not like to fight and had never trained to be an exorcist. He did not need to interfere in the affairs of exorcists. Presumably there was something hidden, but Laura, Nina, Elizabeth, and Miller’s presence was even weaker, and almost no one paid attention to their situation.

“Actually, every Albert family man, no matter what kind of combat profession he was in at the beginning, would definitely become a summoner after becoming a baron!” Baron Albert leaned against the French window and whispered.

‘”From that moment onwards, the power of longevity we obtain must be used to sustain the existence of our servants. We can no longer bring any benefits to ourselves. The werewolves of the Albert Family are not magical creatures, but humans who have signed a servant contract with us. Those who volunteer to protect the human world and devote their lives to the cause of the exorcists … brothers and sisters!”

“Clang!” Baron Albert suddenly punched the French window in front of him, jumped out of it, and fell down.
