The North American Gourmet Demon Handbook

"Bitch, you are so greedy that you even want your master to clean your ass for you?" Kate shouted angrily.

Kate's pressure was undoubtedly very strong for Jennifer.

She rolled on the ground with a distorted face because of the pain, but she didn't dare to scream.

She was afraid that crying out in pain would further anger Kate, this terrible woman.

She didn't even dare to look at Kate, but just looked at Li Shanze with a flattering expression, then opened her mouth and cried for help.

"Wang! Wang Wang!"

Li Shanze laughed out of anger. He didn't care about it and let Kate teach this bitch a lesson.

225 Faith Experiment

After being beaten like a top by Kate, Jennifer didn't dare to mention asking Li Shanze to clean up her mess again.

But she still looked unconcerned about it, as if everything would work out in the end, as if the solution would just fall from the sky.

It's obvious that he has been very well protected since he was a child and has never encountered any problems that cannot be solved.

Li Shanze was too lazy to care about her. At worst, he would ask her to pay back all her accumulated wealth and the fortune left by his father, and then become his bitch obediently.

Anyway, it's impossible to expect him to help.

"Tell me, what's going on with this show called 'Amish'? Why is there such a project, and why do they even include a former Grand Knight of the Church who was excommunicated by the Pope?"

Li Shanze chose to change the subject.

"Ah, well, let me think..." Although she is very good at throwing tantrums, Jennifer Burton starts to hesitate when it comes to serious matters.

She frowned, looked distressed, and tried hard to search through her memories.

"I remember the irresponsible old man once told me, but I can't quite remember..."

Jennifer muttered.

Kate, who was very concerned about this issue, raised her arm and pretended to hit Jennifer when she heard what she said.

"No! Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I, I just want to think about it seriously!" Jennifer begged for mercy hurriedly.

She carefully avoided Kate's side, then used her hands and feet to crawl to the other side of Li Shanze, rubbing her face against Li Shanze's legs, seeking shelter from her master.

She gave a flattering smile and said, "I, I want to use the magic of memory enhancement! Master, you see——"

Li Shanze was very wary of the Delusion Society. Witchcraft that could directly manipulate memory and personality sounded sinister and made people very uncomfortable.

He was about to shake his head to refuse, but he noticed Kate's pleading eyes.

It was clear that Kate was very curious about her former Grand Knight.

So when the words came to his lips, Li Shanze suddenly changed his mind: "Okay, you can use it, but——"

Kate took over the conversation and added on behalf of Li Shanze: "However, if you dare to play any tricks, I will let you taste how the medieval church concocted witches."

Li Shanze understood what Kate meant.

This is still the traditional method of one good cop and one bad cop.

Kate chose to take the initiative to be the bad guy, forcing Jennifer to become more and more dependent on Li Shanze in order to avoid Kate's "bullying".

For this reason, Li Shanze was naturally happy to see it happen, so he didn't get angry when Kate interrupted the topic, but just smiled and said nothing.

After "interfering in other people's business", Kate snuggled into Li Shanze's arms again, gave him a sweet kiss, and took Li Shanze's hand to her chest. Then she looked at Jennifer with disdain, looking smug and arrogant.

Jennifer gritted her teeth at Kate's expression.

What are you so proud of, you stinking bitch? You just deceived the master's favor. When I please the master, I will repay you double for what you did to me today!

The female reporter swore in her heart and made promises for herself.

This is exactly the effect Kate wants to achieve, to divert Jennifer's thinking and stimulate her "ambition", so that she has stronger self-management ability.

While Jennifer was chanting and casting a spell on herself, Kate took advantage of her inattention and gave Li Shanze a smile that seemed to seek credit.

Kate leaned over to Li Shanze's ear, blew gently into his ear, and whispered, "Haha, this heretic trying to deceive people, she has no idea that the church is an expert in this area."

Li Shanze deeply agreed with this.

Since the middle and late Roman Empire, Christianity has firmly occupied the minds of Europeans. The church has accumulated nearly two thousand years of experience in this skill, and its ability to control people's hearts is indeed not comparable to that of mere wizards and heretics.

However, although this is a reasonable statement, it depends on who says it.

Li Shanze was extremely surprised.

He had never expected to hear it from Kate's mouth—that she was a great knight of the devout church.

Li Shanze looked at Kate, not even hiding the surprise on his face.

When Li Shanze looked at her like that, Kate's cheeks turned a little red.

Strangely enough, the two of them were still naked facing each other. They were hugging each other naked, and they had just had a passionate moment. At that time, the great knight of the church did not blush.

Now her face was flushed. "I was simply controlled by the evil master's spell, so I had to say some blasphemous words to please him."

It was obvious that his words were not in line with his true feelings, which made Li Shanze laugh triumphantly.

Li Shanze's smile made Kate's face even redder, even from her ears to her neck. She had to bury her head in Li Shanze's shoulder, and punched Li Shanze as if to vent her anger.

Bitch! Despicable bitch!

Seeing how much the master doted on this bitch, he was not only amused by her but even tolerated her unruly "rebellion" and punched the master in the chest.

Jennifer, who had just cast a spell, was envious and jealous.

Isn't it just serving the master with one's body? Who can't do that?

I want to snuggle in my master's arms and act like a coquettish person like that bitch. One day, I will make that bitch kneel on the ground and lie at my master's feet like I am now!

Jennifer made a great ambition in her heart.

Little did she know that this goal was actually out of reach for her.

Li Shanze was fed up with her personality. If it weren't for her good looks, even if Kate begged for mercy, Li Shanze would have shot her to death, let alone raised her as a bitch.

Maybe one day she will be able to please Li Shanze with her body in exchange for a better situation, but wanting to climb over Kate's head is pure wishful thinking.

But at least now, after the memory retrieval spell took effect, she answered the questions honestly.

"This program was actually designed for the old knight who was sentenced to excommunication."

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Shanze and Kate both became serious.

"What do you mean?"

"It's an experiment, an experiment in faith... an experiment to understand the nature of faith. It's a joint project between several schools of thought and Archbishop Paul Fitzgerald of the Catholic Church."

Kate said angrily, "These heretics are indeed trying to steal the Lord's authority! And Paul Fitzgerald, no wonder he's so wary of me coming here!"

There was a murderous look in Kate's eyes, and even though it wasn't directed at Jennifer, it made her shrink subconsciously.

"Hmph, go on, what conclusion did you come up with from the experiment?" Kate didn't have the heart to teach Jennifer anymore at this time, she motioned for Jennifer to continue.

"The experiment with television was actually completed long ago. That's why it was moved to the Internet later. It's only because the show has always had good ratings that CBS has maintained it..."

"Get to the point!" Kate waved her hand and scolded, "What is the purpose of the experiment and what is the conclusion?"

"Oh! Yes!" Jennifer was so aroused by Kate's sharp edge that all distracting thoughts disappeared.

She just subconsciously answered obediently, "The experiment is to verify whether the audience's welcome can once again gather the power of will in this great knight who was sentenced to excommunication."

"The answer is yes, he is even stronger than in his prime."

"In fact, after completing the initial online experiment, they reopened the project in a more online mode."

"They say this live TV format is no longer suitable for the internet age, and young people tend to lack interest in Ebenezer Loganfield's Puritan-style ascetic life."

"They need a more efficient project to collect willpower."

"What project?" Li Shanze asked.

In fact, Li Shanze already had the answer in his mind.

"Uh, that's the one that's been very popular recently, the virtual saint Vivian."

Jennifer Burton's answer was not at all unexpected to Li Shanze.

However, the sharpness in Kate's eyes became more and more fierce.

"Virtual Saint Vivian? Did Paul Fitzgerald also participate in this heretical blasphemy?" Kate asked sharply.

226 Firing Squad

Kate clenched her fists in anger, and her fingertips even turned white from pinching.

"No wonder Fitzgerald tried to stop me from coming here! What is he afraid of? Is he afraid that I will find out what's going on here and expose him?"

Li Shanze frowned. "Kate, what did you say? Fitzgerald once tried to stop you from coming here?"

Kate nodded. "Yes, I received a call from him when I was driving to this set. He tried every possible way to coerce and bribe me."

Kate said as she quickly picked up the scattered clothes.

She threw Li Shanze's clothes to him, and then quickly put on her own clothes.

The Grand Knight's eyes held boundless rage, but his voice was remarkably calm. "I don't believe that a cardinal who has participated in the Pope's heretical project of creating a virtual saint would resort to mere words to dissuade him."

"We've already spent quite a bit of time in this cellar, and I'm afraid our guests will be arriving soon."

Kate moved her body, and all the joints in her body made crackling sounds.

Then she gathered her loose golden hair and tied it into a ponytail again, holding her lance, and walked out along the steps with a sharp look in her eyes.

"Wait, I'll go with you." Li Shanze had also put on his clothes at this time - after Kate used holy light to dry his clothes, he didn't look as miserable as a drowned chicken.

"But, this bitch..." Kate hesitated and pointed at Jennifer who was still kneeling there obediently.

"Let her do whatever she wants." Li Shanze waved his hand nonchalantly. "If she's smart enough, she'll be able to figure out whose side to stand on."

Kate shook her head. "I don't think she's smart enough."

Li Shanze smiled. Before walking out of the cellar, he said, "If she's a stupid bitch, even if she's against us, then there's nothing to worry about."

After that, the two of them left the cellar side by side.

The wooden door of the cellar was closed casually, and darkness completely enveloped the cellar.

"Aha, are you done?" After leaving the cellar and walking out of the room, they were greeted half-jokingly by the old knight leaning against the wall.

The old knight handed the heavy bag in his hand to Li Shanze: "Here, this is what we agreed on before. It belongs to you."

Li Shanze took the bag and picked it up casually, knowing that this was probably the US dollars he had promised before.

No wonder Kate didn't meet him when she sneaked into the cellar before. It turned out that he went back to the house to clean up the messy cash.

Li Shanze also handed the FN57 back to the old knight: "Thank you for the gun."

"No, you take it first. You may still need it. Besides, I have a spare one." The old knight waved his hand and patted the holster on his waist.

Although the words were spoken to Li Shanze, the old knight Loganfield was always looking at Kate.

There was an undisguised admiration for the younger generation in Loganfield's eyes.

"I think these guests may be here to see you?" The old knight pointed to the group of people not far away and said.

This group of people looked ferocious and murderous at first glance.

They wore black robes made of brown wool with faded blood stains.

They are accustomed to covering the area above their mouths with a scarf with frosted iron plates nailed on it, leaving only their cold eyes exposed.

The blood-red diamond-shaped hole where the lapel of the garment overlapped was not a sewing error, but a blood-red symbol specially reserved by the Sacristy for the Inquisition.

The prayer wheels on their bodies made a uniform mechanical sound, which sounded particularly cold.

"The execution squad of the Inquisition, I have no idea how much trouble you've caused."

The old knight sighed, but his words were full of smiles.

"When the Pope sentenced me to excommunication, he didn't use these elite gangs whose clothing imitated that of the Castilian executioners."
