Alien world

Chapter 1358 Chapter 280. Shout
Annan saw Olmedo walking out of the portal surrounded by Losi and the others.

I looked at Olmedo from a distance and understood each other's thoughts.

Annan left the outside affairs to Olmedo and led Wilson into the Golden Palace.

Lord Raymond helped Annan save a lot of trouble - he gathered all the lords together, so that Annan didn't have to lead the blue dragon to raid the house.

Ilimayas and Captain Ryan rushed back and forth in the Golden City, driving away the dragons like farmers driving away sparrows to protect their autumn harvest.

What was happening right now was enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives—the Osculus Mercenaries were chasing dozens of blue dragons around!
The Golden Palace, which should have been magnificent, looked like it had been looted by robbers. The golden murals and floor tiles were stripped off, revealing bare stone bricks, and the corners of the palace were melted and cut off.

The only thing that was intact was the huge statue of the goddess standing in front of the palace - the reason it was still there was not because the blue dragons revered the gods, but because they simply couldn't pull it.

There were also many naked men shivering in the cold wind.

At first, Annan thought they were male volunteers raised by Lord Raymond who had been driven out of the palace. Then he suddenly remembered that the guards of the Golden Palace were all wearing golden armor.

You deserve it!

No...my golden armor!
Walking into the Golden Palace, the servants huddled in the corner, shivering, but the Blue Dragon had no interest in these strips of meat, he was just a little frightened.

Annan, who remembered the way, led Wilson directly to the outside of the collection room, put his hands on the door handle, turned around and said: "Get ready..."

Wilson took a deep breath: "I know..."

Annan pushed open the door of the collection room.

The collection room once again appeared in front of Annan.

Apart from the cruel human skin display stand, there are many valuable treasures in the collection room, but most of them have bloody origins or are bloody themselves.

Annan walked to the display shelf, only to find one empty one.

Where is Adele's skin?
Did I remember it wrong, or did Lord Raymond take it away?
……

Golden City Dungeon.

Because there were too many people, Olmedo did not send the captured people to the Liberty City Prison, but temporarily placed them in the Golden City Dungeon.

They were imprisoned together with the original criminals, and the dungeon was overcrowded for a while.

However, Lord Raymond enjoyed the privilege of having his own prison.

He stood quietly in the cell, listening to the "neighbor" on the left talking: "Why are so many bright and beautiful guys suddenly locked up here? What happened outside?"

The "neighbor" on the right sighed: "There has been a coup... everything is gone..."

"A coup? It looks like you nobles are fighting each other. That's a good thing!" the prisoner on the left shouted with satisfaction.

The prisoner on the right snorted: "Why were you arrested?"

"I am guilty of loitering."

Lord Raymond vaguely remembered that the crime of loitering was a law proposed by Senator Maxwell. Because the coal mines needed a large number of slaves, but people would not become slaves for no reason.

After all, slave traders operate in a gray area and cannot be seen in public. So they came up with a lot of harsh laws to turn civilians into prisoners, and then send them to the mines as slaves...

The crime of loitering was wandering around the streets and nobles' residences without doing anything.

The prisoner on the right remained silent, while the prisoner on the left pressed: "What about you? What crime did you commit to get you here?"

“I am the legislator who makes the laws.”

The prisoner who was charged with loitering immediately started to curse, so badly that even Councillor Maxwell couldn't stand it: "You can't blame me for this, Lord Raymond asked me to do it!"

"Then I'll scold him too!"

The prisoner on the left kept cursing for several minutes before he remembered that there was another person.

"Hey, the guy next door to me, how about you?"

"I am Lord Raymond."

……

When Annan walked into the dungeon, he was bombarded with unbearable curses. He could not help but stop and listen carefully. He did not expect that people could be cursed like this, and it was too ugly... It was really excessive... What? Was it Raymond who was being cursed? Then increase the intensity.

After standing for a long time, Annan walked over and asked the Hellfire soldiers who took over the dungeon to take away the prisoner next to Raymond.

Wilson was not in good spirits, so Annan left him outside.

Perhaps because he had been scolded for several minutes or because he was deeply confused, Lord Raymond looked very unhappy. He said sarcastically, "Why, the winner is going to ridicule the loser?"

"I'm not that boring, where's Adele's skin?"

"Who is Adele?" Lord Raymond asked deliberately.

"The woman who led the civilians in a riot, was betrayed by the traitor you bribed and had her skin peeled off."

"do not know."

"Then I can only ask that guy who didn't scold you enough to come back and continue to 'comfort' you."

Lord Raymond was silent for a moment, as if he could not believe Annan would be so despicable. He said coldly, "I used it."

“Used it…?”

Annan frowned and prepared to ask the soldiers to bring the man back: "It's not too late for you to tell the truth now."

"It seems you don't know..."

Lord Raymond laughed deeply: "Adele is a saint."

"Hell..."

Annan couldn't help but blurt out the swear word he had just learned.

Saints usually represent only two identities: the gods themselves walking in the mortal world, or the vessels chosen by the gods themselves for their descent.

"How could you kill a saint!?"

"Why not? She was still so weak that she didn't even know it. Until she died, she thought skinning was my punishment for the rebels."

Annan regained his composure: "So you killed the saint of the goddess of wealth and stole her divinity for yourself?"

"The goddess of wealth? No, she is the saint of the god of light."

"You are really crazy..."

The God of Light is a first-generation natural deity, an absolutely powerful deity, who is by no means comparable to second-generation deities like Ms. Fortune.

No wonder Adele didn’t join the Church of Wealth, but led the people to fight against tyranny…

"Annan Reeves, you have such a powerful force, why don't you just use it?"

At this time, Lord Raymond asked again.

The hatred in his words was gone, and he seemed to have accepted his status as a loser.

The two chatted like friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

"I originally wanted to let the people of Broken Mountains solve the Broken Mountains issue themselves, but your control over the territory is beyond my imagination."

Lord Raymond whispered, "If I had invited you warmly at the beginning and not targeted you, would everything that happened next have happened?"

"Will do."

"Do you hate me that much?"

"It's not me who hates you, it's the Broken Mountains." Annan said softly, "Listen..."

The outside world might be in chaos, but Lord Raymond could only hear the silence lingering in the dungeon.

"What do you want me to hear?"

“The cry of the lower classes who are swept away by the tide of the times.”
