Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 46 The Light Bearer: Come Back With Me
For anything at Lighthouse, look to Mark – he's reliable!

Bai Yuetian's body trembled, and he raised his head, a grateful expression on his face.

While on the ground, he casually mentioned it to Mark, but Mark remembered it so well that he contacted Gordon as soon as he got back, seemingly without even having time to eat.

“I went to find Gordon, and it turns out he was also curious about your story and was just about to look for you.” Mark smiled.

"You've both gone in the same direction."

After saying that, Mark sat down next to Bai Yuetian.

Ran Bing came over carrying two trays and said with a smile, "You are the only survivor the Lighthouse has found in recent years, and you may very well be the last. Gordon wants to write you into the history of the Lighthouse."

Bai Yuetian nodded slightly.

Putting yourself in his shoes, if he were the recorder on the lighthouse, he would certainly be interested in the suddenly discovered survivors on the ground.

Because it is very meaningful.

"Thanks!" Bai Yuetian stood up.

He said solemnly, "If you ever need anything in the future, you can ask me for help. I will do my best to help you!"

"Don't go back on your word," Mark teased.

Bai Yuetian nodded seriously.

Compared to seeking the truth, the bread and milk in my hand suddenly seem less appealing.

He turned around and walked quickly outside.

Bai Yuetian walked with a swagger and left the restaurant in the blink of an eye.

"Hey! Moonlit Sky!"

Erica suddenly stood up: "You can't take food out of the restaurant!"

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

"Oh no." Mark's expression changed.

"If the Church of Light and Shadow were to see him eating the people's food, it would cause another uproar."

"Erica, go after him!"

Erica jumped up as if she were sitting on a spring.

She abandoned the bread she had only eaten a third of, rushed outside, and disappeared in an instant.

"Isn't this making a mountain out of a molehill?"

Ran Bing asked doubtfully, "Is it any of the Light and Shadow Church's business if we're treating people to dinner?"

Everyone looked hesitant.

“In principle, the upper class has no right to share their food with the lower class,” Mark said slowly.

"That's just how the Church of Light and Shadow is!" Mo Cheng sneered.

"They're making a big deal out of nothing, insisting on demonstrating the authority of the Lord of Light and Shadow. So many of our brothers died this time, why didn't the Lord of Light and Shadow come to our rescue?"

Mark frowned: "Mexico City—"

Mo Cheng shrugged.

The surrounding hunters looked indignant.

Mo Cheng's words, in a sense, represent the sentiments of all hunters.

Hunters who risk their lives on the land and return laden with spoils are blessed by the Lord of Light and Shadow; those who suffer heavy casualties are not devout enough to the Lord of Light and Shadow.

The Church of Light and Shadow has spoken both good and bad words.

Mark sighed softly.

He called out Mo Cheng's name to indicate that he had disciplined Mo Cheng, and he did not interrupt Mo Cheng because he shared the same views as Mo Cheng.

Faith certainly has its place.

But now, under Charles's leadership, the Church of Light and Shadow is becoming increasingly outrageous.

"Let's eat."

"Erica went, so she should be fine."

Bai Yuetian rushed towards the armory.

During the run, I would occasionally take a bite of bread and chew quickly to replenish my energy.

"strangeness."

Bai Yuetian's eyes flickered.

He noticed that almost everyone on the street would glance at him.

And they all had surprised expressions.

What were they surprised about?

At that moment, the armory came into view.

Bai Yuetian took another bite of bread, swallowing the doubts mixed with breadcrumbs, and slowed down his pace.

There's no need to rush when you arrive.

If Gordon is inside, he definitely can't escape.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the armory, Bai Yuetian turned around and bumped into a group of red-clad priests.

They surrounded the Lightbringer, taking small, quick steps.

Bai Yuetian frowned.

Why do the people from the Church of Light and Shadow always run into the Hunters' territory? Mark doesn't even bother to teach them a lesson.

Bai Yuetian walked sideways into the armory, bypassing the priest.

He brushed past the one who shone with light.

"Stop." The Lightbringer halted.

Bai Yuetian was slightly taken aback. He turned around, and He Guangzhe also turned around.

Through their helmets, the two looked into each other's eyes, and the atmosphere became awkward.

"What is it?" Bai Yuetian asked slowly.

The Lightbringer curled her red lips into a smile: "1012, your shadow value has exceeded the limit again. You can't say you're innocent this time, can you?"

Bai Yuetian's heart skipped a beat.

He has figured it out in the last two days: the so-called shadow value refers to emotional fluctuations.

If you get emotionally agitated, you will violate the Lighthouse Law.

The boundaries of punishment for this crime are very vague.

Depending on the circumstances of the offense and the identity of the offender, a penalty may or may not be imposed.

If they were hunters, they would not be punished, because hunters are on the same level as the Church of Light and Shadow, and the Church of Light and Shadow would not risk offending the entire hunter community for such a trivial matter.

Even if you're not a hunter, as long as you're an upper-class citizen, violating this law will mostly result in a verbal warning, such as "So-and-so, watch your shadow value."

But he was a commoner.

The social status of the Dust People in the Lighthouse is even lower than that of the cows on the Sky Farm.

No punishment is spared for ordinary people.

What are you holding in your hand?

“Eating food meant for the common people that you don’t belong to is also illegal,” said the person with the beam, tilting their head.

Her tone was playful.

"This was offered to me by the hunters, is that illegal?" Bai Yuetian frowned.

The Lightbringer smirked: "Wasting food is no small crime. If you implicate her, I can spare you a lash."

Bai Yuetian took a deep breath.

He understood that this matter was unlikely to be resolved amicably.

At this moment, some hunters cast curious glances their way.

These hunters did not participate in this ground search mission, had a distant relationship with Bai Yuetian, and none of them intended to come up and help.

"What do you want?" Bai Yuetian asked.

"Shadow value exceeds the limit, consuming food from the upper class beyond your level." The voice of the Lightbringer turned cold. "Six lashes, fasting, and three days' worth of contribution points will be deducted."

Bai Yuetian pursed her lips.

Fasting is fine, and emptying my donation points is no big deal.

But the whip.
The punishment of flogging can be light or heavy. Six lashes may not sound like much, but if they are all aimed at vulnerable areas, it is enough to cripple a person.

Bai Yuetian was thinking carefully.

This wasn't the first time he had a feud with the Lightbringers, and the Church of Light and Shadow also clashed with the Wilderness Hunters.

The one who wields the light is likely to use him to establish his authority.

No.

I cannot accept the punishment.

"Objection," Bai Yuetian said slowly.

The Lightbringer nodded: "On behalf of the Church of Light and Shadow, I accept your objection, and I declare your objection invalid."

Is there anything else you'd like to say?

Bai Yuetian: ? ? ?

"You're in charge of law enforcement, and you're also in charge of arbitration?" he complained. "And you're not in charge of legislation either, are you?"

Is this reasonable?

What a joke about veto power!
The Lightbringer sneered, "Smooth talker, execute him immediately!"

The priest rushed toward the white moonlight.

They had already witnessed Bai Yuetian's prowess last time, so this time all six of them attacked together.

Bai Yuetian remained calm.

In his eyes, these six priests were full of flaws.

It's as if several people have grown out of the flaw.

Bai Yuetian moved with ease, barely shifting his feet, and six red gourds appeared on the ground.

Ouch! My back!

"You dare fight back! You've gone too far!"

"Help!"

"Lord He Guangzhe! He's defying the law!"

"Ah! My hand!"

The priest screamed in agony.

They're good at using the tiger's power to intimidate others, but their fighting skills are worse than even the most ordinary hunters; they're all made of paper.

The Lightbringer glanced at the screaming priest on the ground.

The corners of her mouth turned up.

“Disobeying the law is an even more serious offense.” He Guangzhe loosened her belt, lightly hooked her toe, and a steel whip flew from the ground into her hand.

"You have to come back with me tonight."

I'll update this chapter first; the other chapter will be a little later!
