"Has the decision from Headquarters come down?"
"That's right. They assigned the judgment task to me."
Red Candle immediately broke into a smile.
On the surface, Headquarters' decision still called for Silver Willow to be judged. They had neither pardoned his crimes nor directly declared him innocent.
But the fact that the person responsible for judging him was not the Judgment Department, but Silver Willow's captain, Xie Yu, was enough to reveal the elders' attitude.
Everything Xie Yu was doing at this moment was meant to achieve the purpose of judgment.
Yet the ones Xie Yu was judging were not Silver Willow, but this group of superhumans. That was rather thought-provoking.
And besides, hadn't these superhumans claimed that they were different from ordinary people? They had separated themselves from normal humanity.
Even within the Aberration Association, those Contract Anomalists whose bodies had partially mutated, making them resemble monsters and giving them half-human, half-monster constitutions, deeply despised their mutated bodies and firmly believed themselves to be human.
It was obvious from the fact that they did not stand with the monsters, still considered themselves human, became Contract Anomalists, and had continued containing monsters.
Yet this group, who had merely developed some special abilities after their bodies were nourished by spiritual energy following its resurgence, called themselves a new humanity and completely separated themselves from ordinary humans.
If those mutants found out about this behavior, they would probably let these superhumans experience what true cruelty was.
If they truly did not want to be human, then they were heretics, aberrations, things that needed to be purged.
Red Candle patted Silver Willow on the shoulder. "It seems your final sentence won't be too severe."
After all, he had still violated the Humanity Code, so punishment was unavoidable.
But the severity of the punishment
