Die, princess, the devil is mine!
Chapter 248 The culprit
Chapter 248 The culprit
"One million gold coins? Who are you looking down on? My master would be short of your few cents. Do you know who my master is? I advise you to get out of here right now, or you'll die without knowing how!"
Without waiting for Lin En to speak, Shifflin started yelling, and her tone sounded more like that of a female bully than a slave girl.
Lin En, Natasha and Xue Er just watched her pretending to be cool. Except for Xue Er whose IQ was not enough to understand Shiflin's intention, Natasha and Lin En basically guessed what she was doing.
"Damn slave girl! One million is already a great compliment to you! And do you even know who Lord Hu Lie is? In Liewang City, even the city lord has to bow to me. He thinks highly of you by offering you a price. If you really don't sell, Lord Hu Lie will rob you!"
As soon as the tiger orc finished speaking, more than twenty burly orc warriors immediately crowded in from all directions of the street. Half of them exuded amazing aura, and their strength level looked like they could be at the Saint level.
Although ordinary Saint-level warriors at this point in time are almost everywhere and are no longer worthy of the word "Saint", the Saint-level warriors are still a synonym for high-level strongmen, and are considered to be quite powerful.
"With your limited strength, you dare to act arrogantly in front of my master? I will beat you to death!"
Although surrounded by a large group of burly men, Shifflin was not afraid at all and even chose to take the initiative to attack.
She took out a white staff of no rank, swung it and hit a level 500 orc warrior on the head, causing him to bleed.
Born as a divine magician, Shiffrin loves close combat, but her close combat skills are relatively weak and she can only play in crushing games. Once she encounters an opponent of equal strength, unless she wants to take advantage of his weakness to kill him, otherwise she will not be able to win.
However, none of the orcs present, including Hu Lie, could be on the same level as Shifulin, so Lin En saw the divine magician holding weapons and smashing a group of orc warriors. In comparison, the rather petite figure was chasing and beating a group of muscular maniacs. This extreme contrast was quite interesting to watch.
"You...if you have the guts, don't run! I'm going to call the beast!"
Being chased and beaten by Shifulin in circles, Hu Lie's lackeys fell to the ground. Seeing that the powerful guards of his family were so vulnerable to a mere female slave, Hu Lie knew that he had hit a wall.
But he did not back down, because he could see that the strength of this female slave was just so-so, and she was definitely no match for the strong men in his tribe. As long as he went back and got reinforcements, he would be able to deal with her!
If the slave girl was this strong, how powerful would her master be? If he could think of such a brain-intensive question, then he wouldn't be one of the three idiots of the Tiger King.
On this side, seeing Hu Lie fleeing in panic, Lin En and Natasha both looked at the trouble-making Shiffrin with a smile, which made Shiffrin, who was standing with her hands on her hips and talking big, blush.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Lynn reached out and tapped the succubus collar around Shifflin's neck, asking her to tell the truth.
Seeing Lin En reaching out his hand, Shifflin almost thought he was going to poke her chest, but when she found out he was just tapping her collar, she suddenly became bolder.
"Well, I deliberately displayed the succubus collar in public to lure that famous idiot from the Orcish royal family into the trap. I wanted him to offend Lord Lin En, and then I could kill him in Lord Lin En's name! And then use this as an excuse to wipe out his entire family!"
Shifflin looked at the crowd that was walking around them after the conflict, then slowly approached Lynn and Natasha and quietly admitted her mistake to them.
"You never knew that our Holy Lady of Light truly has such a compassionate heart."
After hearing Shifflin's honest confession, Lin En was not angry. Instead, his inherent impression of Shifflin changed a little. He found that this Husky also had some shining points. At least she was willing to act crazy and stupid for the suffering orc slaves and was willing to call herself a slave girl.
"What can I do? Even my dad can't do anything about this stubborn disease. He was only the strongest person in the former Divine Blessing Continent, but more than half of the Ten Saint Emperors are on the other side. We are helpless..."
Shifulin muttered angrily. Even though she was the Holy Maiden of Light who saved people from suffering, she was helpless in many situations when the enemy was too strong. If she didn't have Lin En to support her, the most she could do was beat up or even kill Hu Lie for being rude to the Holy Maiden of Light, but that wouldn't solve the fundamental problem.
"So I don't blame you for taking advantage of others' power, nor do I blame you for causing trouble for me. Since I've come across such extreme evils as human trafficking and bestiality, I will definitely intervene. You don't need to act. Just suggesting that we rest in this city in the first place would have been enough."
Lin En patted Shifflin's shoulder and denied her poor acting skills. She only needed to take them to see the slave market, and Lin En would take care of the rest.
"I don't even know about this. I only know that both the Dragon Empire and the Destiny Empire have orc slaves, but they are said to be obtained through legal channels. After all, the Orc Kingdom has been plagued by natural disasters year after year in recent years. I thought there really were so many orcs who were forced to sell their bodies..."
Natasha also sighed at this time, saying that she had too little experience and not much knowledge, otherwise she would have been able to see through the scam of voluntary selling of body.
"In fact, this unscrupulous slave trade has only revived in the past year. Before, the demons were strong and the Divine Blessed Continent was in danger. Not many people had the time to engage in this. Their money was used to buy weapons and food. It wasn't until more than a year ago, when Lord Lin En led the people to wipe out the demons and drove the demon threat out of the Divine Blessed Continent, that they gradually..."
"Well, I didn't say there was anything wrong with Lord Lin exterminating the demons. I just said that peace and comfort have once again fostered such evil."
Halfway through her words, Shiffrin realized that her words were a little ambiguous, so she hurriedly explained.
Resisting the invasion and driving the invaders out of the mainland are great achievements from any perspective and cannot tolerate any slander.
The evils that have grown out of the peace and stability brought by Lord Lin En naturally have nothing to do with Lord Lin En. We can only blame the greed and lust of human nature. It's all the fault of the Demon King of Greed and the Demon King of Lust!
"Discovering evil is like discovering a demon invading the Miracle World. Just chop it down and uproot it. Just figure out who the root of evil is, and I'll root them out."
Unlike the ever-difficult-to-reach Holy Emperor of Light, Akelil, Lin En had no scruples to worry about. There were no humans or demons in this world he needed to worry about. Unless the gods were behind this chain of evil, he had no reason to be timid. However, the idea of the gods engaging in the slave trade was simply hilarious. A piece of dirt from someone's fingernail was worth more than a hundred thousand orcs. The gods were high and mighty, not mentally retarded idiots. Who would do something so immoral and without any real benefit?
"Hehe, actually, I've already secretly investigated everything. I'm keeping a close eye on every major slave owner, and I've registered every small and medium-sized slave owner. Just follow the list, and if I kill the wrong one, I, Shiffrin Windsor, will sell myself into slavery to atone for my sin!"
Shifulin said with a smile as she took out a thick booklet from the space equipment. Lin En's eyebrows jumped when he saw it. Just looking at the thickness of this list, even if there was only one name written on a page, it would cause a river of blood.
Besides, Shifflin wouldn't be so wasteful as to only write a name on such a large piece of paper, right?
After taking the manual handed over by Shifflin and taking a look at it, Lin En felt a little dizzy. He had underestimated the breadth of the evil interest chain.
The first page of the manual was filled with names, not just one, not even ten, but ten lines horizontally and ten lines vertically. There were a total of one hundred names on one page!
And Shifflin's book is thicker than the Xinhua Dictionary! How many people are involved in this?
Not to mention so many people, even if the names of the pigs were written on it, ten slaughterhouses would be running around the clock and smoke would be rising.
"Do you think I can summon magic and use forbidden spells? There are so many people here. Call out their names one by one. If I can't get to the 50th one, the rest will run away!"
Faced with such a huge number of criminals, and the key point is that they are everywhere in the world, let alone humans, even if God came, it would take him a long time to deal with them.
"Of course, Master Lin En can't solve the problem alone. You just need to kill a few typical ones to show your attitude and determination, and someone will naturally help you solve the rest."
Shiffrin is looking for Lin En as a backer, not as a thug. They have no shortage of people to do the dirty work, but what they lack is a tough boss who can force all the umbrellas to bow their heads. As long as those guys are intimidated and dare not intervene, the knights under her command alone can eradicate this evil.
The key is that such a person is hard to find. In the entire Divine Blessing Continent, there is no other person besides Lin En. Only he has such a deterrent power. After all, he acts without scruples more than anyone else. The emperor of one of the eight empires can kill people at will, and he has not been punished by God afterwards. Who can afford to offend him...
"So that guy called Hu Lie is the typical example, right? Now we're just waiting for him to get beaten up so we can bring the old one over?"
Natasha leaned half her head over and asked with a hint of excitement.
She had read so many chivalric novels, but she had never encountered such a majestic opportunity. Shivlin was putting on a good show. When the old man came later, she would take action. How could she dirty Lin En's hands? Her master Lin En was going to touch her with his hands...
"That's right. The family this Hu Lie belongs to is one of the largest slave owners in the Orc Kingdom, and they also have the strongest background. Their backer is the Temple of War. Most people don't dare to provoke them. Even my father finds it difficult to take direct action against them."
Upon hearing this, Shiffrin nodded and explained the other party's background to Lin En and Natasha. If it were someone else, they would definitely not dare to offend the powerful Temple of War, but Lin En was different. He was the greatest under all the gods, and he could do whatever he wanted to whoever he wanted, and at most he would just say sorry afterwards.
This is where Shifflin didn't understand Lynn well enough. As long as the other party was a wicked criminal who deserved his punishment, no matter who their backers were, he would be considered merciful if he didn't kill the backers afterwards. How could he possibly say sorry?
"War Temple...why are they everywhere?"
Hearing this familiar name, Lin En touched his chin and pondered.
From the beginning of his time travel, or rather before he traveled through time, the people he disliked the most were the Emperor of Destiny and the Pope of the Temple of War.
These two human emperors are simply the epitome of scum and villain. To say that they are guilty of heinous crimes is totally not enough. Let alone other things, just considering the number of people they have killed, the number of casualties is definitely more than that of a large-scale battle. They truly have blood on their hands.
The grass on Emperor Tianming's grave should be sprouting now, which gives us another excuse to clean up the Temple of War. Shouldn't we kill that damn War Saint Emperor as well?
Anyway, the World of Miracles is now protected by him, and the Demon World, the arch-enemy of the World of Miracles, is secretly controlled by him. It doesn't matter whether there is a War Saint Emperor or even a War Temple. It's not like he can't kill him.
The only trouble is that the Temple of War also has a backer, and that is the God of War who is high in the realm of gods. He is the dignified Lord God second only to the God of Light, and is definitely not someone to be trifled with.
Even though there is a boundary between the gods and the world of miracles, making it difficult for them to directly cross the boundary to take action, the divine punishment alone is not something that a mortal body can endure.
In the game "Miracle", the so-called divine punishment is actually a system punishment, which is unavoidable for all players, even Lin En is no exception.
If divine punishment in reality is as unavoidable as in the game "Miracle", then Lin En really needs to think carefully.
However, if the entire Temple of War is not destroyed and only a Pope is killed, the God of War will not necessarily punish him severely, right?
After all, it is not easy for the gods to bring down divine punishment. There must be some price to pay. After all, in reality, it is also a cross-border action.
"Lord Lin En, the War Temple is not something that can be easily destroyed. It's not that you can't afford to offend it, but the price is too high. It's not worth it."
Seeing Lin En reciting the words "Temple of War" and pondering over them, Shifulin had a bad feeling.
What she wants to do is to eradicate evil, not to provoke the gods. Killing all the slave owners will be the biggest gain, and their backers cannot be touched casually.
If you cut off their interests, they may grit their teeth and endure it, but if you directly chop off their heads with a knife, it would be strange if they don't die. Once it comes to a life-and-death struggle, she really can't say for sure whether any of them will be punished by God.
At that time, it will all depend on how important the identity of the Messenger of Light is in the hearts of the gods, and whether he is qualified enough for them to give him face.
