Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 214 One-Eared Charles
"asshole!"

Charles wiped his face and couldn't help but curse out loud.

Someone had spilled half-finished milk on him, and it ran down his blond hair and onto his face, soiling his clean hair and clothes.

He raised his head.

"A long journey! A long journey! A long journey!"

Countless people, filled with anger, rushed towards him.

Charles felt a chill run down his spine.

How could this be?
How dare these idiots?
"You dare to offend the head of the association? Do you want to die?" Fan Lu raised the sword in her hand, her eyes flashing with ferocity, her chubby little face exuding murderous intent.

Vatican drew his steel whip and said coldly, "This is the order of the Lord of Light and Shadow. Do you want to be despised by the Lord of Light and Shadow and suffer eternal damnation?"

They flanked Charles, one on each side.

Fan Lu whispered, "Chief, please take the city lord and leave quickly! These lowly people have gone mad!"

There are too many people.

The priests who maintained order on the periphery disappeared into the crowd without leaving a trace, like rocks swallowed by the waves.

She had never seen anything like it.

Negative emotions were written all over everyone's faces, rushing in from all directions as if they wanted to skin them alive.

There were only a few dozen priests.

The situation was out of control, and she was not confident she could protect Charles.

“I’m not leaving!” Charles scoffed.

"Suppress the rioters immediately! The Lord of Light and Shadow is with us!" He waved his hand, and his voice clearly reached the ears of the surrounding priests.

"Light gives birth to all beings!"

Upon hearing Charles's voice, the priests' expressions hardened, and they instinctively responded, "All beings follow their shadows!"

The priests' fear lessened slightly, but the surrounding crowd did not slow their pace in the slightest.
"Are you all out of your minds?" Fan Lu scolded in a delicate voice.

Her voice failed to travel through the chaos.

Only a few people in the front row heard it. They hesitated for a moment, but were then pushed forward by the people behind them.

They can't stop anymore.

"hateful!"

The murderous aura on Fan Lu's face almost froze into water.

She was only afraid of Charles getting hurt, and had no fear of the mob in front of her. She was willing to fight to the last drop of blood to defend Charles!

At this moment, four bright red-painted light and shadow gravity bodies raised their halberds.

They said sternly, "Stop right now, or we won't be polite!"

The crowd is still closing in.

"Kill!" Charles said menacingly.

They are nothing but lowly commoners and lambs, yet they dare to offend the spokesperson of the Lord of Light and Shadow. They deserve to die!
Today he made sure everyone on the lighthouse knew that even if they encountered people on the ground, the true owner of the lighthouse had not changed. This was a good opportunity to clean up a bunch of useless people and reduce the lighthouse's resource consumption.

This will save us the trouble of holding a departure ceremony for these people later!
"Charles!"

"Stop! You can't attack everyone! Don't escalate the conflict!"

Mark and Jingnan arrived.

Things happened so fast that by the time they realized what was happening, the situation had already deteriorated to a terrible state.

"If I don't attack them, do you expect me to attack you and the city lord?" Charles sneered.

He glared at Mark and said, "Mark, are you so eager to become the city lord that you can't wait for the city lord to leave so you can inherit his position!"

“I’ve never thought of that, I’ve never even thought of becoming the city lord,” Mark said hastily.

Jingnan said anxiously, "Charles, make them stop!"

At this point, the gravitational force had already begun attacking the civilians.

Despite the large number of mutiners, the Lighthouse Road was narrow, and at most only a dozen or so people could attack at a time.

Two gravity bodies were positioned in each direction, wielding two electrified halberds that were unstoppable. People kept coughing up blood and being thrown into the air, and for a time, no one was able to break through their defenses.

Unarmed flesh and blood can never defeat a killing machine forged from steel.

Charles looked pleased.

"Stop?" Charles asked coldly. "When have the followers of the Lord of Light and Shadow ever stepped outside?"

“You should make them stop!” Mark clenched his fists.

He knew that Charles had grown up in a pampered environment.

At a young age when she knew nothing, she became the leader of the Light and Shadow Society, and from then on, she was second only to the leader. She has always been spoiled and arrogant.

But he never expected that Charles would do such a thing on such an important occasion!
Forceful suppression of the people of the beacon?

How many years has it been since something like this happened at the lighthouse?

There were constant screams from the crowd.

Some people started to break through the gravity body's blockade, but were stopped by the priests behind it.

"We can't fight anymore! If we keep fighting, the situation will be completely beyond saving!" Jingnan said through gritted teeth. "You're being ridiculous!"

Charles sneered: "Commander-in-Chief of Jingnan."

Snapped!
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out in the second-floor corridor, and then blood flowed from Charles's ear.

Charles was stunned at first.

An immense pain followed, instantly overwhelming his senses.

"Ouch!" Charles cried out in pain.

He instinctively bent over, covered his ears, and blood flowed continuously from between his fingers.

"Your Excellency!" Fan Lu rushed to Charles, spreading her arms to shield him from view.

Charles couldn't feel the curves of Van Lu's body; all he felt was a buzzing in his head.

A strong sense of fear welled up inside him.

gun!
Someone shot at me!
All the smugness vanished amidst the gunshots and pain, leaving only humanity's most primal fear of death.

A faint blue light flashed in Charles's eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

"Your Excellency!" the priests cried out in alarm.

Several gravity machines also swayed for a moment, causing a mob to rush into the defensive line.

They pounced on the priests who only had rubber batons, using their hands, feet, and even teeth to brutally beat these priests who usually acted like bullies.

"Ah! Let go!"

"Let me go, or I'll kill you!"

"My hand!"

"You lowly mortal, you deserve to die! I'm bleeding!"

"Get off me! You bastard!"

As a law enforcement agency of the beacon, the law institute acts harshly and never treats ordinary people as human beings.

Today they got their comeuppance.

Vatican joined the fight, standing in front of Charles and trying to stop the mob from getting closer.

Charles covered his ears and looked around.

Looking at the chaos around him, he was somewhat bewildered. How did things suddenly turn out like this?

Wasn't everything fine just now?

Why did these lowly people suddenly rush in front of me?

“Charles!” Jingnan stamped his foot.

"Van Lue, quickly get Charles out of here!"

Fanlu kept using her petite body to shield Charles, and she said nervously, "Master, come with me quickly, it's no longer safe here!"

No more gunshots were heard.

But nobody knows where the gunman is hiding now, when he will fire another shot, or whether Charles will survive the next shot.

Charles looked bewildered and was pulled by Fan Lu towards the stairs.

At this moment, Ran Bing and the others approached.

Jingnan calmly said, "Mark, we need the strength of you hunters now. We can't fight anymore. We must persuade everyone to calm down!"

Looking at the angry crowd, Mark gave a bitter smile.

He did want to persuade everyone to calm down, but with so many deaths and injuries at this moment, could they really persuade them with just a few words?
