Shirai brother of a certain science

Chapter 211 The History of the Catalog of Prohibited Books

In the UK in the morning, perhaps because of the light rain just now, the sky is not so foggy.

The ancient stone road is also wet.

From time to time, a few nuns hurried past with solemn expressions.

Stiyl Magnus, as the youngest gifted rune magician of the British Puritans, he came to the church area before dawn, and was sitting on the steps in front of St. George's Cathedral.

This also caused him to be soaked through by the sudden light rain.

"Hiss."

He exhaled a cloud of smoke, except for the smoke in his mouth, there was almost no dry place on his body.

Oh, by the way, there was also the package he was protecting behind.

From the shape of the package, we can't tell what it is, only a regular cylinder, about one meter long.

creak.

The door of St. George's Cathedral was opened, and the blond girl in a plain dress looked at the sun in the sky and stretched beautifully.

"Morning, my lord supreme bishop."

Hearing the movement, Stiyl stood up, his wet red hair sticking to his face.

It was obvious that he was greeting the other party, but there was no sense of politeness in his tone.

"Still?"

Laura froze for a moment when she saw the person in front of the door.

"Why are you here?"

"Tsk."

Smacking his lips, Steele pushed the stunned Laura back to the cathedral, and locked the cathedral door with his backhand.

"What do you want to do?"

Laura folded her hands on her chest, looking so cute and pitiful. No one could believe that she was actually the supreme bishop who ruled the entire Puritan church by herself.

"You still have the face to ask me why I'm here? Then let me ask you, who informed me last night that I should arrive at the cathedral before five o'clock?"

Grabbing Laura by the collar, Stiyl gritted his teeth and asked.

"Probably. Kanzaki?"

"It is you!"

He spit out the cigarette butt in his mouth into the trash can next to him, and at the same time pushed Laura in his hand to the ground again. He picked up the cylindrical package next to him, peeled off the tarpaulin wrapped outside, and revealed something inside.

This is an enlarged version of a cigarette, about the same thickness as a telephone pole. From the tobacco exposed above, it can be seen that this thing is not a pillow or a model.

But a real cigarette.

"Forget about what happened this morning. The most important thing is about Index. If you don't give me an explanation today, I... I'll smoke you to death!"

The rune lights up on the magnified cigarette butt, and a puff of white smoke has begun to rise.

"Wait a minute! Regarding the collar, those are decisions made by the Puritan higher-ups, and have nothing to do with me!"

Seeing the rising white smoke, Laura had a look of despair in her eyes.

With such a large cigarette, if the vanilla smell sticks to her body, it won't take ten days and a half, and it won't dissipate at all.

Laura would not allow this to happen.

"Sorry, this kind of talk is useless to me!"

Unlike Kanzaki Kaori, although Stiyl is younger, because of his teacher Thor, he knows a lot of inside stories.

For example, it seems that the high-ranking king is above the Supreme Bishop, but in fact Laura has already controlled the entire Puritanism. Puritanism can be said to be her word, and no one dares to violate her orders.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you what's going on, put things down first."

"Humph!"

The rune dimmed, and the smoking part was wiped out by Stiyl's hand.

Standing up and calming down, Laura first checked whether the door of the cathedral was closed, and then led Stile to a certain room inside the cathedral.

The room doesn't look very big from the outside, it's like a small utility room.

On the door was an iron lock that was almost rusted.

"Is the truth here?"

Steele expressed his doubts.

Laura didn't speak, but reached out and groped somewhere in the door.

As the jerky and incomprehensible incantations sounded in her mouth, an extremely complicated six-pointed magic circle appeared on the gate.

"All right."

Without moving the rusty iron lock, Laura pushed, and the door opened directly.

As if seeing what Steele was thinking, Laura looked at the rusty iron lock and said, "That's an ornament."

Steele: "."

Walking into the room, Steele found that the place was much bigger than it looked from the outside, and it also extended infinitely inside, and it seemed that there was no end in sight at a glance.

"here is"

"A place similar to the database, I can't reveal more to you. This is a secret that only the Supreme Bishop can know."

"Do you mean"

"Give up! Unless one day I die, I will never give you the position of supreme bishop!"

With a haughty snort, the supreme bishop moved out a dilapidated wooden ladder.

This wooden ladder should have been around for a while, and it has been repaired many times. There is even a horizontal bar missing on the bottom floor.

"I'll see it!"

Putting the ladder in front of the bookshelf, Laura climbed up with a whimper.

As soon as she stepped on it, she seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Stiles seriously: "Don't peek!"

"."

Under Steele's increasingly dangerous eyes, Laura hurried up.

After searching for a moment in a pile of books, she picked up a book that looked brand new and jumped off.

After coming down, she didn't give the book to Stiles immediately, but looked at him vigilantly: "You didn't peek, did you?"

"What's so good about safety pants! Give them to me!"

"You know I'm wearing safety pants! Sure enough, you peeked?!"

"Will you give it to me or not!"

"Give"

After opening the book and finding the corresponding page number, Laura handed the book to Stiles.

On the quaint scroll, the two large characters "New Life" are embellished in the most conspicuous places.

"The new light?"

Seeing these two words, Stiyl immediately thought of the magical association centered on Edinburgh, Scotland.

"Although they all carry the word "new student", the new student appeared much earlier than the light of new life, and their members are also very unusual."

"False saint?"

He knows the saint, his partner Kanzaki Kaori is, but what kind of existence is the false saint?
Of course Steele didn't know.

Since the Resurrection Incident, the False Saint has been classified into the camp of science, and has been completely removed from all literature on the magical side.

Except for the older generation of magicians, almost all newcomer magicians are very unfamiliar with this title.

Even an alchemist like Oreos with a relatively high reserve of knowledge has only occasionally read this title in books, but he has no idea what it means.

The more he looked at it, the more frightened he felt.

The defection of the forbidden book catalog, the magic with the whole London as a map, the three evil dragons, and the angel.

There were even false saints who defeated angels!
Even if that angel is just a false projection, for a "pious" believer like Stiir, the strength of the false saint is already ranked first in his mind.

"That incident not only completely pushed the camp of false saints to the science side, which had no strength at all at the time, but also provided help for the development of the science side, and almost destroyed the whole of London. Prohibited Books Catalog wears a collar."

There was a hint of helplessness in Laura's words.

And it wasn't until this moment that Stiyl really understood the meaning of Index's magical name.

Dedicatus545.

devotion.

"I admit that you convinced me, but I can assure you that Index has absolutely no intention of betraying Puritanism."

"What guarantee do you take?"

"My head."

In fact, Stiles didn't have to do that at all.

In the eyes of Index now, he is not a companion at all, but a bad magician trying to attack her.

Even if the misunderstanding is resolved, Index's impression of him will not be much better.

But as long as Steele feels it's worth doing, that's enough.

After returning the book to Laura, Stiyl walked outside with a complicated expression.

"Wait a moment."

It wasn't until they reached the gate of the church that Laura hurriedly stopped Stile as if she had remembered something.

"what happened?"

Stiyl picked up his beloved limited-edition Giant cigarettes again, and looked at the Supreme Bishop.

"Actually, there is something wrong with Academy City."

Speaking of Academy City, Stiyl only felt a thump in his heart.

Academy City represents an enemy to those on the magical side.

For ordinary people, it represents technology.

For him it meant bankruptcy.

After returning from Academy City, looking at the bill shown to him by the Supreme Bishop, the series of circles almost made him feel angry, especially when he learned that it was US dollars and not Japanese yen, he was directly admitted to the hospital.

Fortunately, Kanzaki Kaori felt sorry for her, and used the money she saved to help him make up a large part of it.

Otherwise he will be the most powerful bearer in the history of Puritanism.

The negative of the debt.

"Don't go!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Stiyl directly picked up his cigarette and walked towards the outside of the cathedral.

"This is a big event related to the relationship between magic and science!"

"I won't go if the sky is falling!"

Pulling open the door of the cathedral, Steele walked straight to the outside world.

"It's also about Index's safety!"

There was no other way, Laura had no choice but to use her trump card.

Sure enough, after mentioning Index, Stiyl finally stopped.

"What are you going to do to her again?!"

The beloved cigarette in his hand was deformed by him. Although Laura's words succeeded in stopping him, they made him even more angry.

"It's not what I want to do, it's Oreos."

Laura took out a crumpled envelope from the pocket of her dress, handed it to Stiles and said.

"Oreos? Didn't he go out to travel?"

After taking the envelope and opening it, looking at the information on it, Stiyl did not speak for a long time.

"So... are you going?"

"Go, I'm going to call Kanzaki right now."

After reading the contents, his first reaction was that Oreos was crazy.

His behavior will not only worsen the relationship between Puritanism and Orthodox Church, but also turn Academy City, which was originally an ally, against them.

If that's the case, Index will be very dangerous in Academy City.

Stiyl even suspected that Oreos appeared in Academy City because of Index there.

Of course he wanted to go, but he didn't know what to do if he went alone, so he planned to call his good partner Kanzaki Kaori.

As a "local" of Academy City, it would be much easier for him to do anything with Kanzaki Kaori around.

"Don't call her, she has other tasks to do, otherwise I won't let you come here."

Eyes narrowed a little, Laura explained.

Hearing her words, Stiyl frowned. If there is no Kanzaki Kaori for this trip to Academy City, it will probably be very difficult.

But thinking of Index, he sighed helplessly.

"Okay, when do I leave?"
