Chapter 14 The Bell of Civilization

 Eight o'clock in the evening in Greenwich.

The scheduled opening time of the banquet has arrived.

Duke Reinhard stood up from his seat in the banquet hall and picked up his wine glass.

"Everyone, history and heritage have given us the glory we have now.

But precisely because of this, when we are crowned with the glory of the past, we correspondingly bear the responsibility of being a noble.

The disasters brought about by the ruins and the abyss border and the changes in the world pattern caused by extraordinary power, we.

No one can escape"

The next second.

Just when he was about to tell the theme of this banquet.

Gunfire rang out.

The connecting point of the huge crystal lantern in the banquet hall began to shake violently and was about to fall.

Danger also comes at the same time.

Sofia is sitting at table three, very close to the location of the danger.

She suppressed her fear and prepared to leave.

Right now.

The insignificant translator at the table silently took out a gun and pointed it behind her.

Feel the cold touch of the murder weapon behind you.

Sophia recalled the disaster records she had seen in the files.

The fear of death also enveloped her instantly.

Bang!

Gunfire rang out.

Sophia felt no pain.

On the contrary.

The gun pointed behind her slid away feebly.

The girl looked towards the position of the silenced pistol shot.

There stood a handsome gentleman.

After cleaning up the killers around Sophia.

He didn't stop.

Instead, he quickly raised his gun and killed another killer disguised as a waiter in the distance.

Finally, the handsome stranger stood in front of the Duke of Bavaria without any hesitation at the moment when the enemy was about to stab him.

That scene.

In later The Times, it was also listed in a key position for a lengthy description.

Sophia gradually calmed down from the fear of death.

She never thought that she would encounter a supernatural killer under the heavily guarded clock tower.

I never thought I would be saved like this.

As the heir to the Duke family, Sophia Reinhardt is no stranger to the increasing number of supernatural phenomena taking place in this world.

After all,

In the upper class society and top scientific research laboratories, the active dark matter flow brought by the cosmic background radiation is not a secret. Compared with the description of "weakly interacting massive particle field".

Perhaps the 'magic' in Celtic legends or the 'psionic power' in scientific research would be more accurate.

Sophia stood in the corner.

Looking at the handsome young man standing in front of his father.

She silently wrote down the name.

【Night Watch】

The princess stood on the edge of the banquet hall and watched the two people communicating calmly.

On one side is the handsome Mr. Night Watchman, and on the other side is her father, Duke Joseph, the Lion of Bavaria.

A topic that should have been discussed in the grand ballroom.

But it continued in the burning banquet hall.

"You want the justice that's built into the bill.

Then do you think the disaster at the scene was not caused by extraordinary beings?"

"The extraordinary is not a whole."

Su Wen smiled and replied,

"In other words, dear Duke, do you want this confrontation to become an identity war similar to 'racial discrimination'?"

Both privilege and discrimination breed antagonism.

Taking a fair trial as the benchmark and treating everyone equally under the laws and regulations is the greatest respect."

————————————————————————————————

The Elizabeth Tower, formerly known as the Clock Tower, is commonly known as Big Ben.

Located on the banks of the Thames River in London, England, it is the clock tower attached to the Palace of Westminster, the United Kingdom's parliament building. It is a landmark building in London.

At the same time.

The moment the Equality Act was signed.

The heavy bells marking the critical time points of civilization are also gradually ringing.

It resounds along the Thames River and flies across London.

And there is also a huge headline in the [Times] that coincides with today:

[The burning banquet hall belongs to the extraordinary eve of dawn]

This report was personally written by Mr. Ted, the most authoritative editor-in-chief in England, and also concluded the opening of the Origin Era.

Among them.

A strange night watchman has become a key figure second only to Duke Reinhardt.

His cold and handsome profile when executing the killer was also printed on the front page of the newspaper as the cover.

"The Dawn of Fire, good report."

Su Wen sat in the reception room of the Mental Examination Bureau and closed the newspaper with a smile.

"The Times, I bought it casually on the roadside. After all, scientific researchers can't just focus on the current situation, they must have a global perspective."

He is very clear about the extremely strict law enforcement procedures of the Mental Examination Bureau.

The fire-breathing guy was immediately imprisoned by the Xincheng Law Enforcement Bureau.

And now.

Compared with the strict review of the process.

Maybe he can free up his mind to think about which bookstore he is going to visit with Miss Jiang in the afternoon.

"Mr. Su Wen, first of all, on behalf of the Binhai Municipal Psychiatric Examination Bureau, I would like to thank you for your brave move."

"Officer Zhu Yu, I just did what I could.

Do you know how long it has taken for thousands of years for humans to discover flames, fear them, and use them to survive the cold winter?"

"I don't know."

"The Xihoudu people lived one million years ago. They were the earliest records of civilization that used fire in human history.

Of course, after the Age of Origin, you can also imagine the fire as the wisdom stolen by Prometheus.

But it was not until 1805 that the famous French chemist Louis-Jacques Denard invented the safety match that extended modern civilization to this point.

It took the first half of the year for humans to accept flames as science.

And do you know how long it took to accept psychic physics as science?

Five years and seven months."

Su Wen said calmly.

Opposite him.

The special service captain of the censorship bureau looked in front of him. For some reason, he always felt that the young man sitting in front of him was not a lazy college student in the background check.

In fact, he makes it harder for himself to see clearly than some psychological criminals.

"I invite you to join again."

"I am just an ordinary person and have no interest in joining the censorship bureau.

By the way, Officer Zhu Yu, the ‘night watchman’ on the cover was also mentioned in the news.

[Night Watch Organization], is it a parallel or superior unit to yours?"

"Yes, the Night Watch Agreement is a guarding oath jointly established by all countries in the world. Generally speaking, it does belong to the higher-level organization."

"Interesting architecture."

Half an hour later.

After Su Wen left.

A team member came to the special service team leader who was still sitting in his original position.

"Brother Zhu, the test results on Su Wen are out."

"What's the result? Is there any problem?"

"Why do you ask this? Did he appear mentally abnormal during the inquiry?"

"No, just the opposite.

He is too sober."

It was only at this moment that Zhu Yu felt that his clothes were soaked with sweat from time to time.

He took the rating paper.

It is clearly printed on it:

[Mental clarity value: no dirt. Mental pollution offset index: 0.0001 (uncalculated)]

Since the ignorance was burned out in the flames of that night.

[Sublimated Pedigree: Knight of Justice] Drop the engraving.

As the only judge in this world.

Except Su Wen himself.

There will probably never be another person who can judge him who paved the way for civilization.
