Chapter 16 Angry with Charles
Shi Lei shook his head and said with a half-smiling expression: "This is the city lord's decision. The city lord has said that the Light and Shadow Church can only punish the believers."

Charles' face was as cold as the bottom of a pot. He had just received a call from Victor. When he learned that the Light and Shadow Sect would not be able to enforce the law privately in the future, he thought Victor was joking. Only after Victor repeated it over and over did he believe it. it is true.

He asked Victor why, and the answer he got was that it was the city lord's decision.

The old guy had been acquiescing to the damn city lord's decision for so many years. He didn't believe that the old guy would ban his law enforcement power for no reason. There must have been some changes.

Before he could ask clearly, Victor left a sentence: "Go to the city lord." 'And hung up the phone.

It's easy to talk to the city lord, but he's not that stupid.

Now he went to the old man without even knowing the reason for being banned. He didn't know how to persuade the old man. He would make himself uncomfortable if he went rashly. If the old man repeated the order, he would be in trouble.

In fact, the church's law enforcement power has not been officially recognized by Beacon. At first, the church's law enforcement power was internal and only enforced on believers. It was he who slowly expanded the scope of law enforcement to the entire Beacon.

Then gradually the church also gained the power to enforce laws.

He was unreasonable in the first place, and he would never go to the old man before he understood the situation.

He first asked his men to investigate the cause. After investigating for more than half an hour but unable to find any clues, he wanted to find Victor to understand the situation. After several phone calls, he couldn't get through, so he had to come over in person.

The moment he saw Shi Lei, he knew the cause of the matter.

During the Vatican incident five years ago, he was beaten by Shi Lei.

It was just a routine subduing act, and I didn't expect to be beaten.

This made him furious. Just when he was about to use his power to make Shi Lei's life worse than death, he didn't expect that the old man would side with Shi Lei.

Shi Lei is just a strong citizen, why should he compare with him?

He is not willing!

Then, he wanted to put pressure on the old man through other senior leaders of the lighthouse and let the old man punish Shi Lei.

Unexpectedly, none of the other senior executives supported him.

And more serious consequences occurred. His subduing act, which he had kept secret, was made such a fuss by Shi Lei, and the entire top management of the lighthouse knew about it.

Charles knew he was exposed when other higher-ups rejected him.

These lighthouse executives are all smart people, but the executives are more concerned about how the lighthouse survives, rather than trivial matters like Vatican.

No one paid attention to Charles' little moves. Now that Shi Lei had brought the matter to the top management, the top management members immediately knew who was right and who was wrong.

Charles was a little anxious when doing things, leaving many flaws.

Charles stared at Shi Lei angrily, with a ferocious expression on his face, as if he wanted to eat his flesh alive.

Shi Lei was the first person who dared to go against him. The incident five years ago was also the first setback Charles encountered in his life.

Ever since he met the Lord of Light and Shadow, he knew that he was destined and that only he could save the lighthouse.

So he believed that this Shi Lei was a test for him by the Lord of Light and Shadow. It was naturally a test, so he had to use all available methods to make Shi Lei completely disappear from the lighthouse.

During the past five years, he used remote control to cause some troubles for Shi Lei, but Shi Lei resolved them one by one, and watched helplessly as Shi Lei's status and reputation grew higher and higher.

His resentment towards Shi Lei grew bigger and bigger. He could be as elegant as a noble in front of others, but in front of Shi Lei, he could not help but get angry. Shi Lei always had countless ways to anger him.

Charles' voice was as cold as Jiuyou: "You can't change the system of the lighthouse."

Knowing that it was Shi Lei, he probably knew how to convince the old man.

Shi Lei looked at Charles with contempt and said mockingly: "You are overthinking. I am not changing the system of the lighthouse, but regulating the system of the lighthouse." For the top management of the lighthouse, the Church of Light and Shadow is a tool to appease people's hearts.

It is wrong for the Church of Light and Shadow to usurp the law enforcement power of the city defense army.

"Hmph, just wait." Charles threatened, then turned and left.

He had never won an argument with Shi Lei. The elegant nobles always couldn't quarrel with the rogues.

Instead of arguing with Shi Lei and getting angry, it's better to solve the problem.

"By the way, mortals can't even enter the Hall of Light and Shadow, so they are not believers of the Church of Light and Shadow. They don't need to abide by the canons of the Church of Light and Shadow. From now on, the Church of Light and Shadow has no right to punish any mortals. If the Church of Light and Shadow punishes non-church believers indiscriminately, I I will personally lead people to arrest him, and the charge is intentional wounding." Shi Lei shouted at Charles' back.

This sound attracted everyone near the gate of the city defense army, including the dustmen passing by.

Charles' body froze. He felt as if his heart was about to explode and his liver was aching.

"You...you..."

The congestion in his brain caused white spots to appear in his vision, and his body swayed.

The believer next to him quickly supported Charles, pointed at Shi Lei and opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't dare to say it.

The believers had suffered a lot from Shi Lei. When he got excited, Shi Lei would hit people.

Since both sides were swearing, each incident was classified as a fight, and both sides received the same punishment.

It seems fair, but in fact it is not fair at all, because Shi Lei has obtained a lot of contribution points through small inventions, and a one-month penalty of contribution points is a drop in the bucket for Shi Lei.

They were penalized contribution points, and the church would not make up for it.

Fighting is a private mistake. The church's contribution points come from donations from believers and cannot be spent on fighting.

Therefore, when defending Charles against Shi Lei, he is often the one who suffers.

Five years have passed, and unless there is great benefit, none of them, Charles' cronies, dare to participate in the struggle between Shi Lei and Charles.

Because all the believers who relied on this to please Charles were bankrupted by Shi Lei.

Shi Lei's approach was very simple. If someone rose to power by criticizing him, he would look for opportunities to anger the opportunistic believers.

The way to provoke anger is very simple, just scold Charles in front of the opportunistic believers. If you don't take action, it will be disloyal to Charles, if you do, it will be a fight.

This move alone would scare away those who wanted to challenge Shi Lei.

There are many ways to please Charles, there is no need to mess with Shi Lei, a thug.

Charles took a few deep breaths to calm down a little. He glared at Shi Lei fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go."

A quarrel with Shi Lei, a rogue, would turn into a fight over time, so let's forget about it.

The key is that he can't beat Shi Lei.

What was affected after the fight was his prestige.

Charles left quickly with a group of cronies to find the city lord.

At the same time, countless plans flashed through his mind, countless plans to deal with Shi Lei once and for all. He could tolerate it before, but now Shi Lei dared to touch his power, he couldn't tolerate it.
