Time stops for the brave, evil paths quickly pass

Start speedrunning Chapter 18!

Yuan Kong felt that what she said seemed to make sense, the logic was closed, and it was invincible.

It was only at this moment that he took a serious look at the appearance of Pope Maggie.

She looked to be in her mid-twenties, with a mature and charming look on her face, bright red lips, bright eyes, and heroic eyebrows.

Under the elegant and solemn nun's hat, you can vaguely see her long purple hair.

Her posture is not demure, with her head raised and chest raised, she is rude and inexplicably elegant, and very sassy.

When Maggie saw that Yuan Kong and Weige were both speechless, it was inevitable that she would feel proud of having won. She asked: "So, why did Sheriff Wigg come to me?"

"Uh."

Forget it.

Opening a casino is not tolerated by Mr. Solotto, but Wei Ge can't control the Earth Sect, so just pretend you don't know!
He pointed at Yuan Kong and said, "This little brother has something to do with you. Can you lend me a moment to talk?"

"?"

Maggie looked at Yuan Kong, who looked upright, and didn't understand what was going on, but still said: "Okay."

Wei Ge nodded: "Then I'll leave first, I'm busy."

Sheriff Wigg was afraid of trouble but caused trouble and immediately left without a trace.

Maggie took Yuan Kong outside and asked directly: "Sir, what do you want?"

When it came to this, Yuan Kong had something to say: "Pope Maggie, that's it... do you know about the killing of the Dark Night Cavalry?"

"I know. I just heard it from a gambler."

Yuan Kong asked again: "You should know about the Human Rights Council and the City Lord's Mansion is looking for a person named Celia, right? Celia is a member of the council."

Maggie nodded: "Oh, what's wrong?"

"That's it."

cough cough.

Yuan Kong took a step forward and lowered his voice: "I know where Celia is. In the entire Mirror Lake City, you are the only one who can protect her. She hopes to get your help."

Maggie's blue eyes rolled.

Another turn.

The vast majority of clergy in the Earth Sect have a favorable opinion of the Human Rights Council.

If it were any other pope, Celia, who was wanted only after being suspected of participating in the murder of the Night Cavalry, could win their favor in an instant and get asylum!
but……

Pope Maggie is a hard-core ruthless person who can open a casino in the church and does not pay attention to the teachings and rules of the Earth Goddess.

She didn't think there was anything desirable about Celia's behavior at all.

She believes that the Human Rights Council's actions are too extreme and often affect innocent people, giving people the impression that they are acting recklessly in the name of justice.

She pinched her chin and thought to herself: "Renovating the church requires at least 10 million soks. The superiors refuse to give the money, and they don't let me accept the municipal funding from Jinghu City. They ask me to find a way on my own. What can I do?
“I have no choice but to run casinos and pump out money to maintain my life like this.

"The casino has been open for more than a month. It has finally become famous. There are more and more customers. Now is the critical moment when we need to keep a low profile and bide our time. We can't create unnecessary problems. At this time, we are covering up a wanted criminal named by the city lord's palace. Well..."

to be honest.

Don't want to help.

She looked at Yuan Kong and said with a smile: "You are kidding! You have also seen the current situation of the Earth Sect. Even if I want to help this Miss Celia, I am powerless!"

Yuan Kong hurriedly said: "Maggie Pope, Celia is innocent! The person who killed the Night Cavalry was not her, nor was she the arrested member of the Human Rights Council!"

Maggie lost her patience. She was a straightforward person: "I can't help, just wait to die. Say goodbye!"

no……

This is different from what Chief Wigg said!

Yuan Kong opened his mouth but made no sound.

Scratching his head, he simply said: "Can you leave if you can't help me?"

Maggie crossed her arms and said, "Let's go, I won't stop you."

"Really gone?"

"The legs are on you, you can walk or not."

Yuan Kong looked at Maggie who returned to the casino, and for a moment, he had no idea.

It can only be said that Sheriff Wigg is not a god after all.

He calculated that the Earth Sect was qualified to compete with the city lord, but he did not calculate that Pope Maggie had no desire to protect people.

But it doesn't matter.

If I don't kill Boren, Boren will die because of me.

It is hard to say that what happened at the Human Rights Council has nothing to do with Yuan Kong. Yuan Kong himself felt that Sheriff Weige's strategy was unreliable.

Not to mention anything else——

Wei Ge wants to arrest the real culprit and end this incident. Can he catch him? In other words, can Yuan Kong be caught by him?
impossible.

To untie the bell, the person who tied the bell must be tied. To end this matter, we must start from the source.

The enemy is in the city lord's mansion!
Yuan Kong walked out of Earth Church. The street in front of the church was deserted and deserted.

He took out the Miracle Controller, looked at the shimmering "X" key, and said to himself: "Then, let's start speedrunning!"

Time, stop flowing!
On the carriage earlier, Yuan Kong had an idea. He needed to take action in this matter, but directly killing the Lord of Solotto City was not a good option.

This is not because Yuan Kong is tolerant, but because killing the city lord does not resolve the core conflict.

Solotto is dead and the problem remains.

The centaurs are not citizens of Mirror Lake City, so what does the dead city lord have to do with them? They will not give up and the young master still has to take revenge.

In order to calm down the incident as soon as possible, the senior leaders of Jinghu City may still hand over the people from the Human Rights Council.

Second.

Solotto held a high position of power, and his death involved many things and had too many variables.

If multiple forces compete for the position of city lord, and weapons are launched; or if lawless elements take the opportunity to smash, loot, and burn, and thousands or hundreds of people die, wouldn't it be a crime?

After much deliberation, it's best to give a warning first.

Isn't Solotto afraid of the "murderer"?

Then just scare him, maybe he will compromise.

Yuan Kong walked towards the city lord's mansion. When passing by the butcher's shop, he picked up a bucket of pig's blood and a rag.

When he arrived in front of the city lord's mansion, he took a quick look and was slightly surprised——

There are guards everywhere inside and outside the city lord's palace!

There was a group of guards standing at the door, one by one, all wearing silver full-body armor, armed to the teeth, and they looked extremely scary.

Yuan Kong walked between them and accidentally looked up and found a dozen crossbowmen in black robes squatting on the eaves of the city lord's palace.

They stood in all directions, observing every direction, and were ready!

"Isn't this... to guard against me?"

Yuan Kong is not sure.

There may be important people discussing matters in the city lord's mansion, so the defense is so tight.

Pushing open the door and stepping on the red carpet, Yuan Kong went up to the second floor.

The city lord's office is facing the stairs, and the door is closed.

Yuan Kong walked in and saw behind the desk the gray-haired old man wearing a gold chain pocket watch that he had seen before. It was Lord Solotto!
Solotto's mental state was not very good.

He sat upright on a chair with his hands crossed and folded under his nose, as if in deep thought.

His old but not cloudy eyes were extremely sharp, but there were heavy dark circles under his eyes, as if he had not had a good rest last night.

Yuan Kong didn't think much about it.

He dipped a rag in pig blood and wrote three lines of large characters on the wall:

[Celia is at the Golden Rooster Hotel. 】

[Soloto Gelic, your choice determines your ending. 】

[Observer No. 8, handwritten. 】

Solotto laid his black-sheathed sword horizontally on his desk, with the tip facing east and the hilt facing west.

Yuan Kong picked up the long sword and turned it upside down, with the sword tip facing west and the hilt facing east.

So, you're done.

He left the City Lord's Mansion along the original path and walked to the Golden Rooster Hotel before pressing the X button again.

The sound of wind penetrates the ears, and the world comes to life.

"hiss……"

It was also at this moment that Yuan Kong suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, not too big or too small -

He wrote Chinese characters on the wall of the city lord's office.

Do people in this world know Chinese characters?

If I don't know him, wouldn't it threaten my loneliness? !

Otherwise, go back and change it?
Yuan Kong was startled again. He suddenly realized that he was now a hopeless illiterate.

He can understand the text of the Annan Kingdom and can communicate with people from other worlds without any barriers, but if he is asked to write, he can't!
"Soloto should have seen the words I left. Regardless of my illiteracy, if I go back and copy them now, won't my skills be completely lost? I have to maintain a sense of mystery and cannot reveal half of my 'humanity', otherwise I will speak Everything you do has no weight and you can’t fool people.”

Moreover, even if Solotto didn't understand Chinese, he should have understood that the "real murderer" was dissatisfied with his actions, otherwise how could he leave bloody words?
Maybe he will soon withdraw the persecution of Celia and others.

Yuan Kong thought for a moment and thought: "Forget it, let's talk to Celia first and ask her what she plans to do."
