Chapter 42: Choose the Endgame
It was exactly nine o'clock in the morning. It seemed that the negotiation between Kamijo Toma and the magicians had begun. Now I have to hurry over immediately.
However, what the boy cares more about is that because of his intervention, Masa Kamijou did not fall into a coma like the original work before waking up for three days, which means there are still three days left-
It is the deadline for "automatic secretary", and it is also the "Dragon King's complaint" that blows up the artificial satellites in the sky, destroys the plot trigger period of "tree diagram designer", and will also make the young man Kurajo lose all his past memories.
What Mu Xiu was considering was whether to over-execute this plot, or to trigger it in advance?
After hesitating for a while, he slowly made up his mind.
Since he fought with the God Split Fireweaver last night, he had a premonition of something wrong. I think it was probably because of the upside-down man Yaresta who had already had unnecessary curiosity about him. In his opinion, the chairman's mentality is very firm and dangerous, and he is completely unacceptable, but he has no ability to compete with the other party at all.
It is impossible to rush into the building without doors and windows, and then attack with domineering spirit, liberate the demonic eyes, and give the other party a sword, right?
For Mu Xiu now, he can only have one choice, that is, when the other party has not completely changed from curiosity to suspicion, or even ready to take action, he will leave the world as soon as possible.
"I hope that feeling is right, at least it can trigger hallucinations once..." Walking on the street, Mu Xiu thought silently, and decided to wait until this plot and change the fate of the amnesia of the Shangjoo Toma, he immediately left.
Mu Xiu always felt that he had just handed over some insignificant swordsmanship to the young man, but the other party showed him something more precious-
That hedgehog head is really too stupid. He is completely unaware of turning straight forward, but he is a true and good hero who will stand up when encountering tragedy... he is also an ordinary person who knows to cherish himself, faces and values his desires.
Because of his three views, personality, reason, etc., Mu Xiu could not become such a person. Although he would not be really without a bottom line, otherwise he would have been killing in the world of apocalypse. However, he really didn't have much sense of justice. He just believed more in gaining the power of mastering destiny through his own actions, pursuing a peaceful life and longing to become "abnormal".
But it did not prevent him from sincerely feeling that the other party was a very ideal incarnation.
Therefore, Kamijo Toma should not "dead" in this incident like this.
...
...
The location is the hospital of the Great Doctor of the Underworld, and the ward of the Kamijo Tomoma.
It was time for Indyx to stay up all night and just went back to rest for a while.
Because if it weren't for such a time and place, it would be impossible for Kamisaki Kuroori and others to talk about the truth of the matter when they were in the presence of Indyx, and it would be difficult to find any other time outside the hospital to negotiate this issue.
So, when Masato was obviously discharged from the hospital, she still asked the Soul Chasing Soul of the Underworld to continue to borrow the ward for a while, pretending that his injury had not improved, so that he could not be discharged for the time being, and it was impossible for Indyx to be with him all the time. This is the best way to create a negotiation location and opportunity at present, and other methods cannot bypass Indyx.
Unless violence is used.
But it is conceivable that neither party agrees with this proposal.
"I have introduced each other before, so I will repeat it here again. I am the Kanlikan, and he is Stir Magnus..." The girl stood near the door of the ward with her companions, and said softly with a tired expression: "We are all magicians affiliated with the British Puritanism. This time we were sent to this Far East island country for missions."
She paused slightly, "——That task is to recycle the "forbidden book catalog."
Although I had known it for a long time, now that the other party is repeating so much, Masao still couldn't help but stare at the other party, her eyes full of anger.
“Why should I recycle it?”
Mu Xiu, who was leaning against the bedside, naturally couldn't make him so silent. He had to break it up and lead the reason out to have room for intervention. "I heard from her that there was 103,000 volumes of Xiao Huang in her head... Oh no, the knowledge of the Magic Book is for this reason, right?"
"This is just one of the reasons. If it is handled improperly, it will even become a "natural disaster". It is understandable that the upper class of the church does not regard her as an ordinary person. After all, everyone will be afraid. Even if she has no magic power now, she cannot take the initiative to use the knowledge of those magic books... but it does not rule out that she will be used by other people who are interested."
The Kan Rift Fire Orion was probably in a bad mood, and did not think about the suspicious pause in the boy's words, but said in a weak voice. She didn't look like a magician in the top ten in London. She was just like a tired ordinary girl.
"It sounds like there is a second reason?"
"Yes... we are not going to pick her up to persecute her, but just want to eliminate her memory before the deadline..." Shenli hesitated for a moment, said so, and was immediately interrupted by a low roar.
"I want to capture her for no reason and eliminate her memory? Isn't this persecution?!" Kamijoo Toma clenched his fists unknowingly, almost crushing his nails.
"Because we have to do this, if I don't, Indyx will die."
The girl's shoulders trembled slightly, and she continued.
"Have you heard of the so-called "full memory ability"? Her way of remembering things is different from ours. The leaves of every street tree, the face of everyone in the crowd, the shape of every raindrop falling from the sky... Nothing can be forgotten, so her brain will be filled with these garbage memories in a short time."
At this point, she didn't intend to hide anything, and she explained the reason from the beginning.
"…!!" Just after hearing the first sentence, Shangjou took his breath instantly and felt his hands and feet cold.
The bad priest next to Kanlihuoori leaned against the wall, with bandages on several sides of his body. He listened silently without talking, and did not take into account the principle that smoking was not allowed in the hospital. His fingers trembled slightly and lit a cigarette for himself.
"The human brain capacity is actually smaller than we think. Our brain can continue to operate for nearly a hundred years because the brain can constantly organize memories and forget "useless memories". You should not remember what you ate for dinner a week ago, right? Everyone will unknowingly organize their brains. If you don't do this, you will not be able to continue to live."
Shenlihuoori said calmly, there was no obvious emotional change in his voice.
"But she can't do this, and once she sees something, she will never forget... and 85% of her brain capacity has been used to remember the 103,000 books... Originally, she only had 15% of her brain capacity, and with her full memory ability, it was a fatal blow. So since she could not "forget" by herself, she had to rely on external forces to make her "forgot", otherwise she would not be able to continue to live."
Then, she talked about the relationship between Indyx and their previous relationship and the reasons why Indyx ran away.
"..." Kamijou Dama listened blankly, feeling his thoughts collapsed.
He had already thought about it all night and planned to argue with the other party, but he never thought that it was the reason. He immediately missed him by the straight ball and he had no idea what to do.
At this time, Mu Xiu quietly listened to what Shenlihuoori said, and waited for a while, without any further information. So he nodded and asked leisurely: "So how long is it?"
"The elimination of memory is carried out in a whole year." The "Saint" girl said: "...It's midnight on the 28th, too early or too late. It's necessary to eliminate memory at exactly that point... If the child has a strong headache recently, it should be a sign, right?"
Today is the twenty-fiveth day.
The anxious Shangjoo Dangma could no longer think normally. He opened his mouth, but his voice was stiff and he couldn't make a sound.
"Oh, then there should be still time." Mu Xiu nodded with satisfaction, but his words immediately attracted the stinging eyes of the three of them.
"What do you... mean?" Steele said angrily. Although he knew that the other party was also a monster that was not inferior to the "saint", he had no idea of fear at this moment.
Kamiriki Huoori frowned, obviously misunderstanding something. She whispered: "Please don't do such irrational things. Although I am the top ten magician in London, there are more people who are better than me... As far as the church is concerned, I am just a small character sent to this Far East Island Country to work on missions."
Her meaning is very obvious, but Mu Xiu didn't believe it.
There are definitely people who are stronger than her, but "more than that" is absolutely impossible. Maybe it's less than double digits at all. If the scope is narrowed to the British Puritanism, there will be even fewer ones. There is no reason why the "saints" in the world are in the British Puritanism, otherwise they would have already pirated other "heterodians"?
It can only be said that one or two are possible, and two or three are very forced. Basically, as long as the God-Splitting Fire Iron is defeated here, the necessary evil church will not be able to send people over.
But Mu Xiu didn't care about this question either. He cleared his throat and said in the eyes of Masashi Kamijoo, "Calm down, what I said is probably not the same as what you think... But before that, I would like to ask, is the only one of the world's complete memory ability? "
"Of course not, otherwise how could we know the special physique? Of course, it is because we first have recorded the experience of our predecessors..." the girl said in confusion.
"Well, that's great. Next is the second question. What you just said - I sorted out, probably Indyx only has fifteen percent of his brain capacity. If he continues to remember, he will burst his head. So he has to eliminate his memory once a year, otherwise she will not be able to survive, right?"
"That's right." Shenli responded with a tired voice.
"Then the question is, can the brain capacity of fifteen percent only be able to remember things for a year? And how did you measure such an accurate percentage?" Mu Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Or, other people with such physique can only live to five or six years old, or do someone specialize in helping them eliminate memories every once in a while?"
“…”
“…”
Kamijo Toma was the first to change color, and Stir and Kanliki Fireori followed closely and seemed to have thought of something, and their pupils contracted slightly.
"By the way, I don't know much about magic, but my mental state has always been very problematic, and I may become mentally ill or schizophrenia at any time... So I have been searching for information on various brain disciplines before, and I have just read this aspect. I haven't been around for a long time and I still remember it very clearly."
Mu Xiu also revealed his theoretical source at this time, after all, he really checked it.
"Wait, store manager..." Kamijou Dama seemed very surprised. He never knew that the boy in front of him had mental problems. He couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Shut up, it's not the time to talk about this."
Mu Xiu glared at him, then slowly recalled and said:
Chapter completed!
