A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 1111 Looking for Death
The "Phantom Mage" application is on this phone, and "Phantom Mage" is also backward compatible with the "Learning Device" function, so the phone contains the complete memory information of Lin Wuming activating his Nen ability in "Bullet Time" state.

This memory information was specially sealed and stored by Misaki Shokuhou as one of her "ultimate moves".

Misaki Shokuhou has personally experienced how terrifying Lin Wuming's "bullet time" state is; even a Level 5 mental and psychological psychic would find it difficult to withstand. To others, it would be like an information bomb that has been compressed to an extremely high degree.

Moreover, since it has already been packaged and turned into weapons by Misaki Shokuhou, this memory information is naturally not that valuable to Lin Wuming. It doesn't matter if he gives it to Kihara Kagura now.

"My memory information is dangerous, please be careful," Lin Wuming emphasized again as he handed over the phone.

Kihara Kagura, unafraid of these dangers, also handed over a hard drive.

……

After completing the academic exchange, or rather, the technology transaction, Lin Wuming returned to Academy City.

Neither he nor Kihara Kaguni were talkative people, and they said goodbye and left after finishing their business.

Kihara Kagura needed to return to his laboratory as quickly as possible to begin the next phase of his research. He wanted to complete the construction of his power system before the global turmoil truly reached "Gremlin."

However, Lin Wuming was not in a hurry to open Kihara Kaguni's hard drive; he was not particularly interested in Kihara Kaguni's research.

Lin Wuming had given up on magic long ago. He knew he wasn't as gifted as the Kihara clan and couldn't master both magic and superpowers in a short time.

Not to mention, in addition to his Nen ability, Lin Wuming also has a special ability called "bullet time," which requires time and effort to research and develop.

Now, with the Roman Catholic Church poised to ignite "World War III," where would he find the time to study magic?
Even if Lin Wuming was very curious, he would have to wait until this calamity was over and the world was at peace before he could slowly study it.

More than any of these things, Lin Wuming was concerned about something else...

Without going home or to school, Lin Wuming went straight to the hospital.

Today, the girls seem to be undergoing intensive training under the leadership of Misaki Shokuhou, so Lin Wuming acted alone, came to the hospital by himself, and went straight to the ward on the top floor.

The ward where I had been staying for the past few days now houses patients who are now at the front lines.

The Right Seat of God is protected by the power of angels, and his physique is already extraordinary. In addition, the medical pod is indeed very effective. In less than 24 hours, Feng Qianfang had awakened from his critically injured and near-death state and regained consciousness.

However, the medical pod has been specially modified and has become her prison. This ward is shrouded in an "artificial heaven" environment 24 hours a day, and the wind in front of it is completely powerless.

Therefore, even when she saw Lin Wuming, she could only glare at him angrily.

"I have some questions for you," Lin Wuming said.

"Hmph, so the interrogation is finally starting?"

“You could think that way too,” Lin Wuming asked. “Why does your ‘Divine Punishment Technique’ only cause people to lose consciousness and faint, instead of killing them outright? Is ‘Divine Punishment’ such a merciful thing?”

The Wind in the Forefront gritted its teeth, then turned its head away as if giving up: "What difference does it make whether you're really dead or not? In a real war, once you fall and lose the ability to resist, it's the same as death. As for after the war, those who faint can only become prisoners of war. Having more bargaining chips and labor won't hurt."

Lin Wuming listened silently without reacting.

After a while, Wind Ahead sighed, "Well, actually it's impossible. 'Divine Punishment Spell' isn't a spell for killing; it spreads not death, but 'fear.'" The "Divine Punishment Spell" is a special magic that uses panic to create a cluster effect, thereby destroying the enemy's will. It's extremely efficient; if all goes well, it can even spread at an exponential rate.

But it cannot kill people directly.

“Killing, taking human lives, is never an easy thing,” said Wind Ahead. “For me, the easiest way to kill is to use a hammer or blunt force with air, rather than to use magic spells.”

"The tragedy of our human species is that we are too fragile, making it all too easy to take human lives." The Wind Ahead shrugged. "So much so that it's easy to overlook the fact that life and death are actually quite serious and weighty concepts."

Especially in the concept of magic, "life" has a special meaning and value.

—Vitality is the source of magic.

Therefore, killing people directly through magic is actually not very efficient, far less efficient than using the most primitive physical means.

"Well, these kinds of grand principles are just empty words, after all, I've killed quite a few people."

Having said that, the Wind Ahead looked at Lin Wuming and asked provocatively, "Now that you've asked, shouldn't you make a judgment on me?"

"A verdict?" Lin Wuming was stunned for a moment before realizing that the Wind in Front of Us really thought he was there for an interrogation.

Upon closer examination, although the wind in front knocked down most of the people in the city, in reality, only a small number were actually killed, mainly the two unfortunate directors and their guards.

Given Aleister's attitude toward the board members, in a sense, killing a board member and killing an ordinary citizen might be no different in Aleister's eyes.

In fact, killing a council member might be even less significant...

Therefore, Lin Wuming has always been too lazy to acknowledge his status as a director—there's really nothing to boast about.

In this world, one's own strength is more trustworthy than status or position.

Lin Wuming came to see Qianfang Zhifeng this time for "strength".

During his conversation with Kihara Kagura, Lin Wuming realized that if he wanted to take his "bullet time" to the next level, he had to start with the concept of "life and death".

Unfortunately, there's no way to communicate about "death." After hitting a bottleneck, Lin Wuming couldn't even find anyone to talk to.

Kihara Kagura's "near-death experience" was not a real death, so it can only provide some reference value.

Then, Lin Wuming thought of the "Heavenly Punishment Technique" of the Wind Ahead. At least from the outside, the casting and dispelling of the "Heavenly Punishment Technique" also seemed to make people die and be resurrected.

Therefore, Lin Wuming came specifically to ask Qianfangzhifeng about it.

However, they were still disappointed.

It seems that "seeking death" isn't an easy thing after all.
