Everyone's become an adventurer, so who's going to put in the effort themselves?

Page 27

Ruth and Tanning were stunned when they heard this.

However, before they could react, Lynn raised her hand, interrupting Captain Leo's explanation like a schoolchild giving a sue:

"Wait a moment, there's something I need to clarify first."

At this moment, Lynn coughed, and under the bewildered expressions of Tanning and Ruth, he tried to suppress the urge to smile and said:

“It’s not just the legacy that Jacken inherited; actually, I inherited the legacy of both of you!”

"The head of this branch of the Knightworth family has now changed to Lynn Knightworth, who is himself!"

At this moment, Lynn straightened his clothes, trying to make his next words more formal and serious.

Even so, an awkward expression of barely suppressed laughter still appeared on his face:

"Although you have lost Jacken and all your wealth, and will have to live under my name from now on, it doesn't matter!"

"But you have me!"

"I can be your 'family' too!!"

Hearing Lynn say that, Ruth, who was initially very angry, suddenly stopped being angry.

As for the reason for not being angry....

It's probably... that his heart is dead!

Chapter 27 How could this be done in front of the military police?

"This, this isn't right!!"

Tan Ning was completely stunned. What did he mean by inheriting my family's property, and inheriting me and my mother's assets?

Is this something that can be inherited?

However, Lynn completely ignored Tan Ning, and instead turned to Leo beside him and asked:

"Speaking of which, what right do I, as the head of the household, have to punish family members?"

Leo gave Lynn a strange look; he didn't believe someone like Lynn would be unaware of Mona City's laws.

And you're saying you'll punish someone right in front of them? You're not even going to pretend anymore?

"You don't have to sign a residence permit."

Out of duty, and also out of curiosity about what was to come, Leo explained in a serious tone:

"In Mona City, all jobs require a residence permit to apply for."

"Because your household registration is currently being changed, the household registration on your residence permit will naturally need to be changed to your name as well."

“At that time, as long as you refuse to sign the residence permit, neither of them will be able to find any work in the city.”

"Unless, they choose to become refugees."

"But once they choose to become refugees, they are essentially giving up their identity as members of the Knightworth family."

Leo shrugged as he said this, giving him a knowing look.

Withdrawing from a family is no small matter; it can easily lead to being seen as a traitor by the entire family.

As for Tanning and Ruth, these two women who have never worked and are not adventurers, but only have some bloodline, their fate once they leave the family is probably unbearable to look at.

Upon hearing Leo's words, Lynn stroked his chin:

"Isn't this a bit too light?"

"Can't we just legally kill them?"

Leo stared blankly at Lynn. "Dude, I'm a military policeman!"

Don't you think it's inappropriate for you to say these things to my face?

"Wait, wait!!"

Upon hearing that Lin En intended to kill her, Tan Ning couldn't hold back any longer and immediately shouted:

"I want to report this!!"

Leo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

After all, the military police would be too much of a psychological burden to teach people how to legally kill, so it's better to just accept reports.

Even Leo could guess what Tanning was going to report.

What do you want to report?

It's nothing more than Lynn plotting murder. After accepting the order, just remind Lynn to be careful.

However, the next second, Tan Ning pointed at Lynn's nose without hesitation and said:

“I’m going to report him as an imposter. He’s a homeless man I picked up from outside the city, not the real Lynn Knightworth at all.”

Upon hearing this, Leo raised his left eyebrow and glared with one eye larger than the other.

Is that true? Why didn't Cohen mention this?

At this moment, Tan Ning seemed to feel that Leo wasn't safe enough, and quickly called out to Sia, who was leaning against the doorframe:

"Lady Sia, please believe me! This person is truly an imposter!"

Sia leaned against the door, playing with the pink hair that fell down her temples with her fingers:

"Even though you say that..."

Looking at Tan Ning's expectant eyes, Xi Ya narrowed her eyes and said with a smile:

"But Lynn passed the bloodline test!!"

"Could it be that the Knightworth family bloodline is also fake?"

"It's fake!"

Tan Ning said without hesitation:

"It was my dad, no, it was that murderer Jacken who killed the real Lynn and transferred his bloodline to this imposter!!"

"His bloodline is fake!!"

Tan Ning finally shouted it out, as if afraid that the people around him wouldn't understand.

Suddenly, Sia, who had been smiling, paused, then let out a soft sigh:

How can someone be so stupid?

Then, *smack! smack! smack!*

A burst of applause erupted.

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and immediately saw Lynn clapping loudly.

"Interesting, really interesting!!"

Lynn looked at the astonished Tan Ning, but a playful smile appeared on his face:

"Are you saying that you know that Jacken murdered a member of the Knightworth family and passed his bloodline to me?"

Ruth, who was standing nearby, turned around and looked at her daughter with a bewildered and shocked expression.

"Is that so?"

"You and Jeken used bloodline magic? How could you use something like that?"

Upon hearing this, Tan Ning's face turned deathly pale.

Bloodline techniques are forbidden!

Or, to be more precise, the original version, the bloodline technique from the Dungeon Gospel, is forbidden!

Because of the disasters that occurred in the past due to the theft of bloodlines, bloodline families that have given birth to demigods have strictly established rules to prohibit any member of the family from using primitive bloodline techniques.

Once discovered, they immediately lose all human rights and may even become research material for various bloodline experiments.

"No, I didn't say anything."

Pfft!

Without warning, the black dagger pierced Tan Ning's heart.

Tan Ning stared blankly at Lin En, who was smiling in front of her, and at this moment, she was somewhat at a loss.

She just... it looks like she was stabbed?!

At that moment, Lynn indifferently withdrew the blade, as blood gushed out, splattering onto Lynn's arm and spilling onto the ground.

Plop!

Tan Ning collapsed to the ground, powerless.

Then, Lynn turned around with a curious look and said to the stunned Leo:

"She just admitted to using bloodline techniques. Is my approach okay?"

Leo's expression changed, and he was about to say something when he heard Sia calmly say from the side:

"This is a private matter for the Knightworth family and is not under the jurisdiction of the military police."

Upon hearing what Sia said, Leo immediately understood.

This is all a setup!

A scheme to find an opportunity to kill Tan Ning or Ruth.

However, perhaps no one expected Tan Ning to be so cooperative, so quickly giving Lynn a reason to take action.

No wonder Cohen didn't show up for this. Why would someone from the Knight Vauxhall family come and witness this? Would he just be making things difficult for himself?

Faced with this situation, Leo took a deep breath and said calmly:

"This is a private matter for the Knightworth family, and the military police have no right to interfere."

At this moment, Ruth finally reacted, looked at her daughter who had collapsed limply to the ground, and knelt down on the ground:

"You... Tan Ning?"

"No, this can't be done! How could this be?!"

Lynn glanced at Ruth, then turned and looked at Sia:

"I thought you would stop me?"

Given the speed that Xia had shown before, she should have been able to save Tan Ning before Lynn could make a move. But to Lynn's surprise, Tan Ning didn't seem to have any intention of making a move at all; she just stood there watching the show.

This puzzled Lynn.

Is she really not afraid that she will kill both Ruth and Tanning?

Why stop it?

Sia wore a smile, but her gaze was cold:

"To die at your hands is the easiest end for them, who have broken the taboo."

"Otherwise, if it falls into her hands, the final outcome is hard to say."

It fell into her hands? Whose hands was it again?

Lynn was stunned for a moment, a little confused about the situation.

However, at that moment, a female voice came from beside Lynn:

She was talking about me.

Lynn turned around abruptly, but saw nothing, and could only exclaim in surprise:

"Who?"
