Time stops for the brave, evil paths quickly pass

Chapter 53: Hundreds of Changes
Yuan Kong stopped when he was not using it. He just pulled out the two-wheeled flatbed truck, loaded it with Hannuo's body, and walked back slowly.

With Aretha by his side, the Demon Eye didn't dare to make any mistakes.

Not only did she not ask Yuan Kong to use "Journey to the Earth" to send her back, she even carried the suitcase herself.

If she had done this before, even if she hadn't sat down on the flatbed, she would have at least put her luggage on it.

can only say--

In the face of absolute power, even tigers will turn into cats.

There are large and small checkpoints, garrison stations and recruit camps around Mirror Lake City. The arrest warrant for Hanno Justin was sent to various camps at high speed.

Yuan Kong pulled the flatbed truck and explained the situation to the soldiers guarding the camp.

The leader took out the arrest warrant and asked immediately: "Did you kill this person?"

Yuan Kong pointed at the magic eye: "This lady did it."

On the road earlier, Yuan Kong and the others had a summary.

Aretha is the pinnacle of ritual magicians. She looks charming, but in fact she is at least a hypersonic missile. She is a strategic talent and an important national defense weapon.

Not to mention the ritual magic, just the "Rite of Reincarnation", who wouldn't want to learn it?

If the top brass of the Annan Kingdom knew of her existence and directly sent troops to snatch her away, that would be an understatement.

In order to avoid trouble, it was natural to conceal her existence.

At this moment, she was wearing a black burqa and standing quietly behind Yuan Kong, only revealing her white palms like gelatin.

Ms. Magic Eye smiled slightly and said: "We were suddenly attacked by this person and had to kill him. This person seems to be a wanted criminal in Jinghu City?"

Yes.

But isn’t that a little fast?

Hanno's arrest warrant had just been delivered, and the ink hadn't even dried yet, so everything was black.

The leader didn't have time to pass the portrait around so that his men could remember the prisoner's appearance, so he was captured and killed?
He gestured with his hands and said: "It's a very important matter. You three, please wait in the camp. I will notify the city immediately and someone will come soon. Then - please explain the situation in detail."

This is not a problem.

Solotto, a native, is easy to talk to.

In the barracks.

"Ah - I'm tired from walking."

Magic Eye leaned against her suitcase, raised his arms above his head, stretched his waist and stretched his back.

She took off her high heels and freed her feet.

Aretha looked at the stockings on her feet and said, "Ms. Magic Eye, the socks on your feet are not cheap, are they? I have never seen such delicate and shiny stockings before."

"Ah...my thigh-high socks?"

"Well, you look very attractive, you have a pair of shapely legs."

"Thank you for your compliment."

You actually said thank you?
Yuan Kong looked sideways at the magic eye, a little surprised.

If he had complimented Demon Eye's beautiful feet just now, this woman would have scolded him and used the rhetoric of "unprecedented beauty in a prosperous age".

The magic eye touched her graceful arches and smiled: "Master, this is woven on a textile machine. It is different from the handmade products you used before. It is indeed not cheap, but it is not expensive."

"Really? The world is making progress."

Aretha looked at the exquisite white porcelain cup on the table and seemed to be feeling emotional.

She looked at Yuan Kong and asked: "My lord, do you want to see me wearing these thigh socks? My legs are also in good shape."

Yuan Kong raised a hand: "If you like to watch, wear more clothes. You haven't woken up for 800 years. When you return to Jinghu City, let's go for a walk on the streets and see the scenery of this era."

"Thank you Lord, I'm looking forward to it."

Aretha smiled.

Yuan Kongke nodded politely in response. He didn't know how to keep the distance between him and Aretha now.

If they are just "teammates", then it's okay to say that they are nothing more than mutual respect, mutual understanding, and treating each other with sincerity.

But because of the "oath", the relationship between Yuan Kong and Aretha is not that of teammates, but of "master and servant."

this……

Out of line. Modern society is a contract society, and those who are masters and not masters have long been swept into the past.

What attitude should I use to get along with Aretha?
"Be as close as a friend and maintain respect for your seniors?"

Yuan Kong looked at Aretha who was talking to the magic eye and had no good idea.

……

……

While waiting, Yuan Chengfeng released the "battle log"——

The battle log records the death of Hanno Justin.

But no experience points are gained.

From this, we can get a very important piece of information: the system does not encourage killing, but does encourage killing monsters. Yuan Kong also inferred an "experience":
"Although the stage mission this time was completed, my approach may be different from the system's initial expectations. The 'side mission' that appeared later proved that the teammate sent to me by the system was the comatose girl in the 'House of Bones'. Not Aretha."

"However, as long as the final result 'meets the requirements', the mission will still be resolved. Even if the 'teammate' I find is not Aretha or the comatose girl, but a random ritual magician, I believe there will be no difference."

If you can guess the content of the stage tasks, even if you don't play according to common sense, as long as you meet the requirements, you can complete it.

This is the way to speed up the evil path.

So far, Yuan Kong has only experienced two stage tasks.

Although the information obtained is not much, we can also get a glimpse of the clues.

The most important thing right now is—

"I must set up an adventure team immediately, or simply set up an adventure team in one step. The second phase of the task has already been written, 'form an adventure team'."

"The third phase of the mission must be for the team to go on an adventure. The only question is where to take the adventure."

But this shouldn't be a problem.

Because Mirror Lake City is not an adventurer city, the number of commissions in the association is very limited.

Even if you use the exhaustive method, you can quickly find the answer.

Thinking of this, Yuan Kong's pressure eased and he felt better.

in this way.

Four hours later.

A group of people rushed to the camp in a hurry, and the leader was none other than Captain Jami, whom he had met once.

Captain Jami brought his horse and led Yuan Kong and his entourage towards Jinghu City and straight into the city lord's palace.

Solotto has not yet fallen asleep.

Ever since Observer No. 8 appeared, his routine was completely over.

Normally, there wouldn't be any major events for half a year, but now major events are coming one after another. The centaur hasn't finished it yet, but they have found another burial place.

He looked at the body and asked, "Dead?"

Yuan Kong nodded: "Dead. Madam Magic Eye raised the knife, clicked it, and fucked the person upright."

"Oh……"

pity!

It would be great if we could catch him alive, maybe he could catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

Once Hanno died, the clues were cut off. I really don’t know where to start investigating.

Magic Eye said: "The situation was dangerous at that time, and I couldn't stop it."

"This villain has a good background. It's better to die than run away."

Solotto meant no blame.

Ritual magic is of great importance, not just in Mirror Lake City. After the situation was reported to the Imperial Capital, the Imperial Capital attached great importance to it and responded immediately.

The boss said that a small team from the Royal Knights had been dispatched, together with professionals, and was scheduled to arrive at Mirror Lake City the day after tomorrow.

This team is specifically responsible for this incident and must get to the bottom of it. The Lord of Soluto City and relevant units will be asked to cooperate.

In other words-

Regarding this matter, Solotto couldn't speak well.

The responsibility rests with the officials of the Royal Knights, and all Jinghu City has to do is cooperate.

He looked at the magic eye and said: "Ms. Magic Eye, can you please stay in Jinghu City for a few days? In a few days, someone from the imperial capital may ask you some questions."

Demon Eye slowly shook his head: "I'm afraid not. I will go to Mist Village in the near future and cannot stay in Mirror Lake City."

"The Mist Village is nearby. Someone may be looking for you by then."

"This is not a problem."

Solotto nodded, looked at the black-robed woman next to Yuan Kong, and asked, "Who is this?"

Demon Eye smiled and said: "She is my teacher."

"Oh! To be able to teach such an outstanding disciple as Ms. Demon Eye, I believe this lady's skills must be very impressive!"

"You flatter me."

Aretha smiled and nodded, showing dignity and consideration.

Solotto looked away and looked up at the dreamy blue moon: "Such a gorgeous moonlight... but I don't know whether it is good or bad!"

Yuan Kong was about to say something, but just as he opened his mouth, he immediately closed it again——

【719:59:59】

[Please complete the stage tasks within the limited time. 】

Stage missions appear again!

This time the limited time is actually as long as 720 hours, a full thirty days!
