Chapter 2960: Fated Death
"That was a silver metal heart. Except for the material, its structure was exactly the same as a normal human heart. Later, the autopsy found that not only the heart, his body actually contained 17% metal components. Besides the heart, the right leg bone and some blood vessels were also of this silver metal material.
That unexploded heart had a very clear 'Truth Society' brand on it. This was not a forgery; the professors of the Truth Society liked to leave labels on their proud works.
The investigation into the Koch family at dawn today shows that Hermann Koch very likely came into contact with the Truth Society more than ten years ago. There are records in his private doctor's medical records that Mr. Koch suffered from congenital heart disease since childhood and had been taking various medicines to maintain his body. But since 1840, Hermann Koch gradually stopped taking medicine, and his exercise level far exceeded what a heart patient could bear.
Miss Bell reported to everyone:
"So the Church believes that the Truth Society controlled Hermann Koch by means of replacing his heart, but the purpose is currently unknown. In addition, research on that heart afterward shows that once it explodes, its power can probably wipe out half of Vesta City."
What the madmen of the 【Truth Society】 want to do, even the Outsider doesn't know, but the craftsmanship and technical ability contained in that heart made the Ringed Shushi of the Creation Sect marvel.
The 【Truth Society】 should be iterating their technology, replacing Hermann Koch with a new heart every few years. And the production time of this heart that almost exploded, according to the traceability of the materials, should be this summer.
The Creation Sect believes that the technical level of the 【Truth Society】 seems to have made great technical progress in recent years. The mechanical modification parts of different years extracted from Hermann Koch's body can clearly explain the leap-forward explosion of their technology development.
"It's about the Battle of Pantanal Swamp last year. After the light of the Chosen One of Knowledge and Wisdom gave everyone present the gift of knowledge, the technical level of the 【Truth Society】 appeared this change. I remember, the current president of the Truth Society, Ms. Pawo, was there at that time, right?"
Sylvia, a witness to the Battle of Pantanal, asked Xia De, while Xia De was thinking about whether the 【Truth Society】 was just conducting experiments here, or whether they were also conducting time travel.
And the second piece of news brought by Miss Bell was even more important:
"Also, Mrs. Bennett is dead."
"What?"
The people at the long dining table looked at her one after another, and Xia De was even more surprised:
"Mr. Bennett's wife, the mother of the four sisters, died last night? Then who did Megan and I see last night?"
"Not last night, but around dawn today. It was Mr. Bennett who discovered her death. The autopsy found that she died of sudden myocardial infarction in her sleep, and even if a doctor was present at the time, she couldn't be saved. Lady Sanmei families were reviewed yesterday, and as a result, two of them had problems. Tsk tsk, it seems the Church is busy."
A disease like myocardial infarction that causes sudden death, except for Ringed Shushi like Xia De who have mastered miracles like "False Immortality," no one has the ability to save them.
"But why?"
Sylvia expressed that she didn't understand:
"Why would she die suddenly at such a time?"
Miss Bell couldn't answer either, but Sister Daelin said:
"A few days ago, Xia De asked me to observe the death of the Bennett family. Although the tree blocked my line of sight, I saw that Mrs. Bennett's vitality was the weakest at that time."
"For ordinary people under isolation review like this, dying in the church will have a great impact on the Church's reputation, right?"
Ajilina asked in a low voice, and Grandma Cassandra nodded:
"Yes. But if the church can reach a settlement with the family, this matter will not actually be widely known."
"Mrs. Bennett is dead..."
In this way, the characteristics of Bennett that "Desire" described for Xia De to collect debts perfectly matched Thomas Bennett. But Xia De was still puzzled. Why was it such a coincidence that it was yesterday, and last night Thomas Bennett kept asking for a doctor's help.
"Dead is dead. Given what the Bennett family did locally, after the Vesta Woodland matter is over, even if she doesn't die, I'm afraid she won't have freedom in the second half of her life."
Xivi didn't care about the death of that stranger:
"Xia De, when will you take action against Bennett? Although the woman's death is not important, I'm worried that it might lead to some bad changes. I think we can't wait any longer."
Today is Thursday, so we really can't wait any longer:
"Then let's prepare to take action today."
He stood up and looked at the girls at the table:
"According to Miss Bell's information, Thomas Bennett will hold a funeral this afternoon, wanting to bury his wife first. Although I don't know why he is in such a hurry, the city cemetery is the best place to take action. Everyone get ready. Although Thomas Bennett is only 8th-tier, the scene at that time will certainly not be a battle between 8th-tier and 8th-tier. Emilia~"
"I'm here, I also have to go together this afternoon, right?"
The little elf asked hurriedly. Xia De nodded:
"Go to the forest in a while to call that elf too, don't forget about little Liana and the 【Flute of Time】. Thomas Bennett is likely the third-tier candidate. We don't know where his qualifications are used, but we will leave the final blow to you."
Emilia nodded immediately. She hadn't participated in a battle since returning from the Fifth Era. She wanted to perform well this afternoon to prove to Xia De how much she had gained in the two years of the Fifth Era.
"Is everyone going this afternoon?"
Flora asked Xia De again. Xia De shook his head:
"Let's discuss it in a while. This battle will definitely have accidents, so we can't put all personnel into the battlefield at once. Luweiya, what has Iluna been doing recently? Can you contact her to come and help this afternoon? Since last weekend, I haven't seen her again."
"Iluna seems to be mastering new power. That girl thinks that she is not qualified to intervene in the final story of the Chosen One of Time."
Although Iluna didn't say it herself, Luweiya understood her thoughts completely:
"I'll write to ask her if she has time this afternoon. Iluna has had a sense of crisis recently, which is actually a good thing."
Although Iluna hadn't been to the ship for a week, when she wrote to Luweiya a few days ago, she included three special coins in the letter. Since the action to officially hunt Bennett would start this afternoon, then the three coins should be tried out.
After breakfast, everyone went to prepare for the battle in the afternoon. Luweiya went to write to Iluna first, and after handing the letter to Miss Bell to be delivered to the city, she saw that Xia De had already come.
"Divination against Bennett will be very difficult, but after all, this is my special divination method. After understanding Bennett so well, this divination will definitely give you a big harvest—what do you want to know first?"
The three coins sent by Iluna were all document-level relics 【Wrath of the Thunder God】. This kind of relic is considered to be the currency used by ancient people to trade with elemental lords. And the effect of the relic is that after being ejected, it forms a thunderbolt, and its effect ignores any energy defense.
"Mrs. Bennett's death."
Xia De sat across the table and put the cat that had eaten breakfast by his hand. The arrival of winter did not affect the habits of this cat, but it was very dissatisfied that Xia De often couldn't see anyone for a whole day:
"I still don't understand why that woman died suddenly at such a time. If you ask me, this is too coincidental, isn't it?"
"Maybe it's just a coincidence."
The diviner lady said in a relaxed tone, picked up a coin, closed her eyes, and threw it upward. This divination went very smoothly, even when Luweiya opened her eyes again, Xia De didn't feel much fluctuation in her mental power.
This meant that this divination was very easy.
"Because of your curiosity, we lost a coin for nothing—this is not a complaint. But the result is very clear, Mrs. Bennett's death is really an accident."
She said lazily:
"There are too many medical terms I don't understand, so I won't say them. You can understand that she had health problems herself, and the matter of the third daughter Linda Bennett some time ago made her physically and mentally exhausted. After the whole family was invited to the church yesterday, fear, shame, and worry about being pointed at by others in the future finally detonated her physical problems, which led to the sudden death."
"Is there no participation of other forces? Maybe it's not acting directly on her, but through various seemingly accidental coincidences, finally leading to such a result."
But Luweiya shook her head:
"You have heard the concept of 'Fated Death' since last year, but very few people can really know when their own death date is. The divination just now shows that the woman died before dawn today, which is her fated destiny."
"This is something destined since she was born. Death has been waiting for her at this time point, and her death is completely fine. By the way, 'Fated Death' is a very special concept. If 'Fated Death' is observed, then death will definitely happen. If not observed, then the future is unknown. Although there is also a death date, at least when facing crises one after another, one can welcome them with hope.
When I received the most basic diviner training in the association, I knew not to casually divine 'Fated Death.' This is also one of the few times I have looked at someone else's death date. However, since she is already dead, the significance of this observation is actually not great."
The diviner lady held her face and looked at the expression of her lover across the table:
"Then after satisfying your curiosity and dispelling your suspicion, what should we divine next? This time we don't have to be so frugal. Grandma Cassandra said that the auction house recently received a few coins, and they should be delivered in about two days." ===== CHAPTER 2961 =====
