Both times she was to be burned at the stake, Jenny helped her escape by sheer luck.
The two of them were like two lone wolves who had come together, licking each other's wounds and getting through that time.
Jenny looked at the frail old woman with a hint of sadness in her eyes: "I remember the first time I saw you, you were a twelve-year-old innocent girl. Seventy years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have changed from that innocent girl into this."
Mason chuckled softly: "No human can resist the erosion of time, which is why I envy you."
"So, five years ago, you secretly planned to eat me and steal my ancestral blood?" A cold glint flashed in Jenny's eyes.
Mason did not deny it, but said directly and frankly: "No one can resist the temptation of immortality."
After a pause, Mason sighed softly, "Unfortunately, no one can truly live forever."
"Is that so?"
At that moment, a dignified, elegant, and mature older sister's voice came from inside.
As the wind chimes rang, a mature and elegant woman dressed in a women's suit and a professional long skirt walked in.
The well-tailored clothes hugged her perfect body to an extreme degree.
A woman with a firm chest, slender waist, perky buttocks, and long, shapely legs is the mature, sophisticated woman that countless men dream of.
Upon seeing this woman, Mason's eyes, almost completely obscured by the wrinkles of old age, flashed with an incredulous look of shock.
Lilith walked in, looked at the old and hunched Mason, and said with a sneer, "Ten years have passed, and it feels like you've already stepped one foot into your coffin, Mason."
“How are you still alive? With your bizarre life form, you should have died long ago! No woman can stay young forever! No one!” Mason stood up and said with certainty.
Lilith stretched out her hand, and you could see that her skin was as white as snow, as smooth as jade, and full of pink and luster, just like the flawless skin of a baby.
"Your thinking is still so narrow-minded, and you are still so arrogant."
As Lilith spoke, she sat down on a chair to the side, her long, shapely legs sticking out, captivating countless men and fueling the jealousy of countless women.
"You're not Lilith! Who are you?!" Mason suddenly asked in a deep voice.
Lilith smiled slightly: "I am indeed not the same Lilith as before. Now I am called Lilith Arkham, and I am the wife of Mayor Arkham."
"How shameless! You're almost fifty, aren't you? You could be his mother." Mason sneered sarcastically.
Lilith wasn't angry. She said calmly, "That's your narrow-minded and superficial thinking. You'll never understand. For someone like Mayor Arkham, time has lost its meaning."
Mason was naturally not provoked by this kind of provocation.
“How did you know I was here?” Mason asked.
She came through the monster at an angle; normally, no one would know that she would suddenly appear here.
Lilith reached out and ran her fingers through her dark hair, saying, "Mason, in the years you've been gone, Arkham is no longer the Arkham you know."
"Times have changed."
Mason sneered after hearing this: "No matter how things change, as long as you have enough power, you can stand at the top."
“Lilith, I witnessed firsthand how you mutated, and I know you even better than you know yourself. Now that you've degraded yourself by marrying that boy, you must be here to deliver a message to Arkham, right?”
Lilith shook her head: "No, the mayor has a lot of things to do. I came here simply because I wanted to."
"I want to see what the guy who looked down on me more than a decade ago looks like now."
As she spoke, Lilith stood up, a smirk playing on her lips, "Looking at you now, you're still that filthy old woman, unchanged. It's quite disappointing."
"You're asking for death!" Mason's tone instantly turned incredibly sinister, and waves of dark energy swirled around her.
"Behave yourself!" Jenny frowned slightly and hissed in a low voice.
She wouldn't allow anyone to disrupt her peaceful life.
Chapter 0198 Did I let you leave?
Putting aside the matter of Arkham Public School for the time being, Los stood up and said, "Let's go, it's time for reckoning."
Sitting next to Kenneth, Contem stood up, clenching his fists, and said to Los, "Mayor, please allow me to kill that old hag with my own hands."
Los said, "Don't worry, everything that belongs to you will be yours."
"Mayor, what should we do with this man?" Kenneth pointed to Depp, who was charred but still barely alive, standing to the side.
Los laughed and said, "Bring it along, it might come in other uses."
"Lilith, spread the word to seal off the entire area around the target location, and also inform the public not to move around unnecessarily."
"understand!"
Then, without much preparation, the group went straight through the door.
When they came out again, they had arrived at the wealthy district in the southwest of Arkham, at the former manor of the Rhodes Merchant Guild.
This place became public property after the Rhodes Merchant Guild was destroyed and has been idle ever since.
“How’s it going, Hardy?” Los asked.
Hardy bowed respectfully and said, "The other party is very cunning. At first, I only determined the general range of the monster's activity from one angle. Fortunately, I received help from the surrounding residents. They saw two strangers moving back and forth in a villa belonging to the Redemption Society."
As he spoke, he turned to introduce two well-dressed middle-aged men, around forty years old, to Los.
"This is Mr. Webster, the general manager of the art glass company. He's the one who told me about the unusual behavior of that group of people."
"Mr. Mayor!" the middle-aged man with a small mustache and a somewhat plump figure said excitedly.
Los nodded slightly: "Well done, Mr. Lister, Arkham will remember your contribution."
Hardy continued, "This is Mr. Churchill, a very talented film director. He also saw it and testified to Mr. Lister's words."
“I remember there was a movie called ‘The Savage’ in Churchill,’ which you directed, right?” Ross asked.
Nat was overjoyed and excited after hearing this: "You know my work?"
"Yes, it's very well made. I like the chivalrous Arthur in it." Los nodded.
Cinema has existed in this world for nearly thirty years. Although it is still in black and white, it already has sound, and the related technology is relatively mature.
Nat was even more excited after hearing this. It was an incredible honor that the great mayor could remember the main character in his film.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries and encouragement, Los asked, "A villa belonging to the Redemption Society?"
Hardy nodded: "I've already confirmed with Dr. Laban that it is the Redemption Society's villa, but there's no record of anyone staying there recently, and he doesn't know this group."
"Judging from their names, the Father God's Redemption Society and the Redemption Society do seem to have some connection," Conte said.
Guided by Hardy, the group went to the east-facing window of the room and looked east. Across the street, in a four-story duplex villa, they could vaguely see people walking back and forth through the window.
At this moment, Los's eyes gradually changed, and he could clearly see the person inside through the glass.
"Hardy, you don't need to fight. Just keep the monsters at your angles and don't let them teleport away."
“No problem! I can set up the entire door circuit inside both villas,” Hardy said.
Los nodded slightly, then raised his hand and said, "Let's do it!"
Meanwhile, in the Redemption Society's villa.
After listening to Mason's suggestion, Donald said he could not accept it. He had already boasted that he would definitely complete the task perfectly.
If he were to slink back like this, he would lose not only face, but also the favor of the great Father God.
“You haven’t been in contact with that woman for a long time, she’s lying to you!” Donald shouted.
Mason replied calmly, "Ignorant fool, if you don't leave now, we're all going to die here."
Donald sneered, "I don't trust you. I'm going to test you myself."
No sooner had those words been spoken than a cold voice rang out: "You don't need to go, we're here."
Upon hearing the voice, the five people in the room were stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw Conte leading Kenneth, Mark, Hindwal, and others into the room.
"How did you get in?!"
Seeing this, everyone, including Mason and Donald, was filled with disbelief.
"I told you, I'll pay for what happened a hundredfold!" said Kant menacingly.
As soon as he finished speaking, lightning crackled on Conter's arm, and the mechanical arm instantly transformed into an electromagnetic cannon.
boom!
Immediately, he opened fire on the crowd.
In the critical moment, Donald roared and pushed forward with both hands.
Instantly, two concrete walls rose from the ground, blocking the electromagnetic cannon filled with electricity.
At the same time, he blocked his men on the other side.
At this moment, Donald finally realized the seriousness of the situation and turned around quickly, saying, "Take Minnie and get out of here!"
The opponent actually possesses abilities similar to those of the Angular Monster, and can even bypass the Angular Monster to find them.
This is simply unbelievable.
As they spoke, the two quickly opened a door and went inside, where they saw Minnie sitting quietly on the bed.
"Let's go!" Donald hissed.
Minnie's powers were now sealed, yet she remained arrogant, a mocking glint in her eyes as she asked, "Why are you acting like a mouse that's seen a cat? Didn't you say you were going to capture Los Arkham? What's wrong?"
Donald didn't have time to argue with Minnie, and said to Mason, "It's up to you."
Mason stepped forward and bound Minnie with a chain, saying, "You should leave here and go back to where you belong."
Upon hearing this, Minnie turned pale. She knew very well what returning there meant: endless hell!
"No! I don't want to go back!" She knew that once they passed through this door, they could leave Arkham directly through that monster, and then she would have no hope left.
Even in her final moments, though she had lost all her strength, she still struggled with all her might.
Unfortunately, no matter how much she struggled, she was unable to break free from the level 40 restraints.
At this moment, her watery peach blossom eyes looked at the dark door with terror, as if it were the gates of hell filled with countless fears.
"Someone save me!? Someone save me!?"
The most desperate cries kept surging in her heart, but unfortunately, reality was very cruel.
She was led through the gate by two people amidst her helplessness and despair.
But just when things were at their most desperate, a calm yet domineering and ruthless voice rang out.
