Chapter 443 I Am a Substitute
At 6 o'clock this morning, just after dawn, when Ash was taking a bath next to Iguola, everyone's gospels popped up again.
In just the past four days, the Gospel has updated its fifth list: "The List of Evil Laws."
Evil magic, as the name suggests, is an evil magic faction.
In fact, this definition is quite outrageous. Even a cannibal magician with a diode brain knows that there is no distinction between good and evil in magic, only the magician can distinguish between good and evil. For example, the legendary necromancer of the Sixth Crest opened up the Mermaid Houttuynia Farm for his family. Regardless of Ash's opinion, the Mermaid Houttuynia Farm has indeed turned Vanmula into a happy city, and even greatly improved Vanmula's health. The productivity of citizens, so the Necron faction is undoubtedly advanced, righteous, and kind here.
However, there is no good or evil in magic, but there are good and bad environments for practicing magic.
Let’s take the Necromancer faction as an example. If it is an earthly paradise where all members have eternal life, how can the Necromancer faction practice without a source of corpses? Therefore, in the eternal paradise, the necromancy faction definitely belongs to the evil law, because practicing the necromancy faction means murder.
The evil spells defined by the Gospel Kingdom are those spells that cannot be practiced in normal society: plague, famine, war, death, chaos, despair... Magicians who want to practice these spells must actively lead the society to collapse. Bad, so every evil mage can be said to be extremely sinful, and their destiny is to lose weight.
More importantly, these evil factions do nothing to help productivity. After all, the undead can improve the efficiency of corpse recycling. Which one of plague, famine, war, and chaos does not reduce production efficiency?
Even if other fighting factions don't increase productivity, at least it doesn't reduce productivity!
If it was a chaotic era when countries were bordering each other, these evil factions could still protect their homes and countries. But now each country is its own entity. When leaving a country, it depends on whether the Void Realm will provide a visa channel, and there is no need for national war preparations at all.
If it weren't for the virtual realm that had to face battles and the abyss that needed strength to suppress, Ash had no doubt that combat magicians would be at the bottom of the contempt chain (unless they were legendary holy realm magicians). Every era has its own theme, and in a stable society, the creator is the only answer.
If an ordinary combat magician is a sewer profession, then an evil magician is definitely a stinking sewer level.
Therefore, the "List of Evil Spells" updated by today's gospel is the ten most disgusting sewer magicians in the next fifty years. In the era of doomsday, they will not only be famous for a long time, but at least they will be infamous for thousands of years. Each of them took advantage of the social turmoil to create disasters on the level of city destruction, bringing concepts such as plague, famine, war, and chaos back to this world that were almost eliminated by the gospel. country.
To be honest, Ash actually has no position to hate the people in the "Evil Magic List". He won't say it himself. Igurra destroyed the city in the "Trick List", and Harvey even created the top ten undead in the "Family List". family. Compared with them, the people in the "Evil Dharma List" are not even worthy of carrying shoes.
If Ash really hates bad guys, he should turn on the violent motorcycle mode and kick the two motorcycles next to him off the highway bridge.
But first of all, Ash believed that Gospel was just a misunderstanding of Igura and Harvey, and second of all, he had a good relationship with the two of them, so his ass must be sitting on the side of his friends. Just like the gospel has always slandered him as the source of trouble, Igura and Harvey have never doubted him - in fact, Ash hopes that they will doubt him a little bit, not even a little bit, so that Ash always feels that he is underestimated. .
Just like "Happiness List", as soon as "Evil List" came out, everyone was neutralized by Ash. This is why they are racing on the highway bridge - An Nan can finally confirm that all subsequent lists will be speeded up and invalidated, so the "Assassination of the Princess" plan can officially begin, and they do not need to continue playing tricks in the Philippines.
However, what 'Evangelion Ash' did in the "Evil Law List" made the main body feel very unhappy.
If 'Gospel Ash' is to persuade, intimidate or even kill the Echoers of the Evil Law List, even though it is not in line with his character, Ash can still accept it.
However, what ‘Gospel Ash’ chose was to make them repent.
Naive and full of cruelty.
To put it simply, 'Gospel Ash' appears in front of the Echoers in advance before they embark on the path of evil, and tells them about the disaster scenes they will cause in the future, the despair and resentment of the victims, and even the evil caused by evil. The pain is shoved into their minds, making them confess their mistakes before committing suicide.
Perhaps because he thought Ash had done a good thing this time, or perhaps because he felt that the wanted order had no meaning to him, the Empire Red Hat finally canceled the wanted order against him, as if to encourage him to kill more bad guys and do more good deeds in the future.
But Ya Xiu is the most dissatisfied with "The Evil List".
If the first three lists skewed his character, and the "Happiness List" distorted his character, then the "Evil List" simply reshaped his character.
The behavior of "Gospel Ash" there is to judge the Echoers from above for the bad things they have not done yet. Not to mention his ability to bring these echoers back to the right path. After all, this is too much for the Holy Father. Ash himself has no interest in saving souls that may have fallen.
However, 'Gospel Ash' can clearly kill the Echoer with one sword, whether it is to destroy the Gospel, to save the world, or for reasons such as disgust, it doesn't matter. But he insisted on repenting and placed himself in the seat of judge, just like gods judging sinners who have not yet committed a crime.
If 'future sins' can be used to judge 'present self', then isn't Ash himself the one who deserves to die?
Ash didn't see anyone in "The List of Evil Laws", only gods and toys.
Unfortunately, from the time he traveled to the present, his status has always been that of a toy, so in his eyes, "Evangel Ash" is like a worker who turned into a scab.
...
As if sensing Ash's low mood, An Nan changed the subject and said, "Look, Nabistin is not far away."
Ash looked up and saw buildings with blue arcs of light appearing on the horizon in the distance, and a metropolis full of technology gradually came into view.
"Is Nabistin only one level?"
"Nabistin has three floors."
"Ah?" Ash was startled and looked at the clean and clear sky above Nabistin: "But-"
"Yashu, do you know why the two-story city construction technology developed?" An Nan said: "That's because Queen Yisu wanted the imperial capital to apply the latest technology of the technological revolution."
"However, the reconstruction and repair of the city is too troublesome. It is better to build a new city. However, the Yisu royal family does not want to change the location of the imperial capital, so a whimsical miracle plan was born: build a new city above the original site of the imperial capital, and once the new city is built, use the miracle of earth magic Let the old city sink to the ground and the new city land on the ground, so that the replacement of the old and new imperial capitals can be completed."
"The technology for constructing a two-story city was also developed because of this, and it was not fully matured and put into use until these fifty years. Although the imperial capital cannot build a two-story city to block the sun, it doesn't matter. The imperial capital has been changed twice, so Nabistin has a total of There are three floors: ground floor, middle floor and ground floor.”
"Nabistin's review of outsiders is very strict, but this is only a requirement of the ground city." An Nan said: "The bottom city is a chaotic area without even red hats. That is our destination tonight, and A gathering place for countless criminals, dreamers, and careerists.”
At this time, the sky bridge began to extend to the road below, and three roads appeared in front of Ashiu and others: the ground road, the second-story tunnel, and the bottom-level tunnel. Under the command of An Nan, they all entered the bottom tunnel. At this time, the traffic on the road gradually increased, including both trucks and floating vehicles. They were inconspicuous among them.
After a long journey, they finally left the narrow tunnel, and the bright and cheerful scene made them feel a little dazed for a while.
Dozens of floors of buildings, giant virtual reality advertising images, express delivery robots flying through the air, crowded traffic entering the city... If it weren't for the fluorescent mushrooms that could be seen on the ceiling when they raised their heads, Ya Xiu and others would have thought they were in somewhere else. The city that never sleeps.
On the overpass of the toll station at the end of the incoming traffic flow, a banner with colorful and glowing text is hung.
"Welcome to the hell closest to heaven - the underground of Nabistin." Ash muttered softly.
...
...
After paying the entry fee, the funeral participants entered the underground city smoothly. Because they were riding motorcycles, no one would suspect that they were wearing full-face motorcycle helmets.
"You came in so easily?" Igulla couldn't believe it: "Did Nabistin not care about it at all?"
"On the surface, it doesn't matter. If you look at people wearing hoods, no one will check." An Nan said, "But I'm afraid it's intentional, because Nabistin is the imperial capital and gathers the most resources in the entire gospel, and it is destined to attract the most people." Sociopathic criminals...this is the gospel’s biggest trash can.”
"I thought Fei Dengla was already at the lower limit of Gospel." Ashi said.
"Fei Dengla is just lagging behind, but here is chaos." An Nan said in Yaxiu's ear: "You must have a place like this in Blood Moon to bring unstable elements together for management, right?"
Ash thought it was true, but Blood Moon is a prison + a war zone. Gospel actually used the entire underground city to raise Gu, and it was also under the butt of the imperial capital. It was not so much a trash can as it was Gospel's cesspit... Wait, This metaphor seems to include myself in it.
"So," Harvey, who was standing next to him, suddenly said, "There is a high probability that the echoers of the "Evil Magic List" are also here?"
"Even if they are not here, they will come here sooner or later." An Nan said: "There is no place for them outside."
At this time, there was a sudden noise in the surrounding traffic. Many people got out of the car and raised their heads. Some people shouted in horror: "Shadow of the Plague!"
Ash and others raised their heads and saw a figure standing on the overpass hanging a banner, and this person was very familiar to them - ranked fifth on the "Evil Magic List", Roger Diol, the 'Shadow of the Plague'!
He is an ordinary magician about twenty years old with a handsome appearance. Before the end of the world, his main specialty was poison magic. After the end, he switched from poison magic to plague. Just from the appearance, one would never have imagined that he would create a severe plague that killed hundreds of thousands of people in the future, just to increase the level of his faction and climb to legend. He could be called a criminal who is inhumane.
Such a big man who would become famous in the future stood at the top of the overpass with a dull look on his face. He naturally took out a dagger and cut open his chest, and took out a beating black heart from inside.
Ash's heart moved, recalling Rogge's actions after the appearance of 'Gospel Ash' in "The Evil List"——
"After repenting, Rogge deeply realized that his existence was meaningless, so he walked to the overpass under Ash's watch, cut out his own heart and crushed it, activating the ritual miracle he would master in the future to infect himself. The cruel plague of creation quickly melted flesh, bones, and even souls. Like tears of regret, these residual fluids wrote the word 'sin' on the ground..."
At this time, Rogge had begun to melt into water, corroding traces on the road surface, and the traffic nearby quickly got out of the way. After Rogge completely dissolved in the air, no one dared to get close. They only dared to watch the corrosion marks on the ground from a distance.
"crime……"
"It's exactly the same as the scene in "The List of Evil Laws"..."
"It's that man...it can only be that man!"
"He's coming to Nabistin!"
"The future Lord of Disaster, the source of disaster in the apocalypse, and the undead demon with countless followers, Asher Hiss has arrived in Nabistin!"
"He even followed the steps of the future list and asked Rogge to repent and commit suicide!"
"Destiny is like a thread, be sure to be like a rock! There is no mistake in the gospel, everything is a foregone conclusion!"
In the chaotic and crazy crowd, the funeral people wearing full helmets looked at Ash silently, and Ash spread his hands helplessly.
"Obviously," the cult leader said, "I'm a stand-in."
