During this meeting, Pride had found himself again and naturally adopted a respectful attitude, but Branch Chief Pam was not used to it. In her impression, Pride was still the same boastful and vain man as before.

"Uh, Captain Pride...what's up with the way you talk...?"

Branch Chief Pame was obviously trying to ask the question as politely as possible, but Pride himself didn't know how to explain it.

"It's a long story. Anyway, shall we go in first?"

Pride gestured to Chief Pam's branch about the crowds of people surrounding him. Chief Pam understood and turned to take Captain Pride in. However, he suddenly discovered that Fike and Heloise had disappeared without a trace.

——(Hmm? Where did these two little guys go? I was thinking of introducing them to Pride...)

"What's wrong, Chief Pame?"

"Ah, nothing, I'll take you inside."

·

While Branch Chief Pame was not paying attention, Jiang Ran took Heloise and quietly slipped over to Tianma, just in time to block Pride's sight with the help of the crowd.

Jiang Ran didn't want to be made to kneel down in public by Pride again. If he said "Lord Banning" again, his new name "Fike" would be in vain.

Now, rather than meeting Pride, Jiang Ran wanted to come and see this so-called "Pegasus". This was the first time he had seen a flying mount since he came to the Prison Star World.

━━━━━━━━━━

Tianma Shasha, female, 5 years old

Pegasus - Lv20

Skill slots: 1 / 1

HP: 695 / 695

Stamina: 132 / 482

Mana: 220 / 220

━━━━━━━━━━

(So ​​Pegasus is a tamed monster. Sure enough, this world has the skills to tame monsters.)

Jiang Ran looked at the Pegasus with great interest, and Heloise was even bolder. She went straight up and gently touched its wings. It seemed that she liked the Pegasus' wings very much.

However, after watching for a while, Jiang Ran took Heloise away. He believed that Pride would not stay in the Mission Guild for too long.

·

After Pride entered the mission union, he was "stopped" by a man who was about the same height and strength as him.

"Captain Pride, I've long heard of you. I'm Babol from Medison Town, and I'll be joining the subjugation team against the 'Labyrinth - Green Ghost Lair'."

The muscular man who called himself Babol extended his hand toward Pride.

Unlike Pride who wore a full set of armor, Babol wore only light leather armor, with only a spiked shoulder armor on his left shoulder. Behind him hung a ghost-head axe, the mottled bloodstains on it were enough to show his numerous battle achievements.

——(I see, it's the 『Great Axe Warrior』.)

Pride could probably tell that this Babol was probably around level 40 on the second stage.

This has no basis, it's just an empirical intuition.

In the past, he probably wouldn't even bother to pay attention to him, but now, Pride still politely shook hands with him.

"Nice to meet you, Babol. If we have the opportunity to fight together, please give me your guidance."

Pride was just being polite, but this Babol was quite serious.

"Okay, I will definitely fight for the opportunity to be on your team!"

After hearing what he said, Pride finally understood his intentions and also realized that this man had some abilities.

——(Knowing that I would join the maze subjugation team, and that the team would be divided... This person's information channels are quite impressive.)

"Yeah, good luck."

Pride released Barber's hand and went upstairs with Chief Pame.

After listening to the conversation just now, Branch Chief Pame realized that Pride was here to join the maze subjugation team.

"To be honest, Captain Pride, I just met two young people with great potential yesterday. I'll introduce them to you next time I have the chance."

"Haha, really? That's what I want."

Pride smiled on the surface, but he didn't take it too seriously.

No matter how promising a young man is, he cannot compare to the master he serves, Lord Banning.

After leaving the mission union, Jiang Ran went to the suburbs with Heloise.

There are two purposes for coming to the suburbs. One is to hunt animals to earn some living expenses. If you can encounter a monster, that would be even better.

Another purpose is to wait and see if any snake will contact Heloise, because Heloise said that the Earth Ghost Lord usually contacts her at night.

In order to increase the success rate, Jiang Ran deliberately kept a certain distance from Heloise and acted separately, and before they separated, he also carefully instructed Heloise.

"Heloise, since I can't directly perform the purification ritual on your 'Earth Ghost Master', I can only use a different method to help him exorcise his karma. To do this, I need your cooperation..."

Although Fike's request was a bit strange, Heloise still memorized it carefully.

She believed that once she explained the reason, Lord Earth Ghost would definitely understand - this was all to help him get rid of his karma.

·

Heloise and Fike hunted until the sky was full of stars. She was surprised that Fike, the "messenger of the good god", had such excellent hunting skills.

Just as Heloise was about to catch a sika deer to prove herself, a green snake came to her.

"Hiss... Heloise, come here."

In the bushes not far away, the green snake was sticking out its tongue and talking to Heloise.

Heloise coughed twice in a strange manner, then walked towards the bushes... and not far behind her, a young man followed quietly.

6.64 - Head-on Confrontation (Part )

Tonight, the Earth Ghost was in a bad mood.

Although he boasted in front of Tiangui, he was actually not sure whether Heloise could complete the task in the end.

In order not to "waste" Heloise, this precious chess piece, the Earth Ghost found Heloise who was alone tonight and tried to make her return to the right path after she had strayed from the right track.

Therefore, Digui set two goals tonight, one was to understand the situation and the other was to give orders.

He had to figure out why Heloise lived so friendly with the "mission target"?

Didn't he clearly tell Heloise that "Banning" was a demon, an enemy who must be killed?

So, after finding Heloise, the earth ghost took her to the depths of the forest where there was no one around.

"Hiss... Heloise, what's wrong with you now, hiss? Explain it to me, hiss."

The Earth Ghost temporarily suppressed his dissatisfaction. In front of Heloise, he needed to maintain the image of the generous "Earth Ghost Lord".

"Lord Earth Ghost, the star of the Evil Tiger King God shines brightly. Even a figure like you can sometimes be blinded by the fog. Fike, he is not a demon."

When Heloise opened her mouth, she still used the same weird words, but when she heard the end, Digui was confused. What was wrong with this kid? He actually denied the order he had given before?

"Hiss... Heloise, didn't I tell you? His name is Banning, his identity is a disguise, he is the devil, ah."

"Lord Earth Ghost, names and identities are merely the outer shells we live in this world, just as the Evil Tiger King God appears as a one-eyed evil tiger in the human world. What truly matters is what's within. Be it Banning or Fike, not only are they not demons, but they are also 'Messengers of the Good God.'"

Heloise was completely unmoved and her belief was very firm.

The Earth Ghost was really confused now. Heloise's behavior was too abnormal and almost out of his "control".

In the Earth Ghost's opinion, Heloise should obey him completely and should not have any doubt at all.

But now, Heloise was not only skeptical, but also opposed and denied it, and simply refused to listen to what he said.

——(Could it be that Banning brainwashed her?)

"Hiss... Heloise, listen to me, hi. I don't care what 'Banning' said or did to you. I want you to forget him now, hi. Just follow my orders. Do you understand? Hi. If you don't listen to me, the 'Blood of Trial' will be ineffective, and you won't be able to revive the Tiger People, hi."

In desperation, Digui had to make a drastic move. He knew that "reviving the tiger people" was Heloise's Achilles' heel.

But what he didn't expect was that even after he said this, Heloise remained indifferent.

"Lord Earth Ghost, the Evil Tiger King God once said that being overly arbitrary is the root cause of failure. Fei Ke, he truly is the 'Messenger of the Good God.' He is the one who can lead us to break free from the shackles of fate."

"Hiss! What 'Messenger of the Good God'? Hiss, how is such a thing possible?"

The Earth Ghost gradually lost his patience. He felt that there might be something wrong with Heloise's brain. This brain that kept saying weird things all day long finally broke down.

What "messenger of the good god"? Digui would never believe such a groundless thing. He could only think that Banning had successfully brainwashed Heloise more strongly in such a short time.

——(It seems that this chess piece of Heloise is useless...)

"Lord Earth Ghost, the Evil Tiger King's apostles never lie. Fei Ke is the real deal, and he has even performed miracles right before their very eyes. Since you find it hard to believe, how about you witness it with your own eyes?"

The development of the conversation suddenly exceeded Digui's expectations. He was about to stop Heloise, but he didn't expect that the "target to be killed" would appear immediately.

"Good evening, Lord Earth Ghost. I've often heard Heloise mention you, but seeing you today is truly believing."

A young man with stern eyes and brows walked out from the woods behind Heloise. When Digui saw this, he immediately understood that everything that happened tonight was planned by this guy - Heloise would wait in the suburbs at night, which was actually a trap to lure him out!

——(So Heloise is already in cahoots with Banning...)

——(No wonder nothing I said just now was of any use.)

——(Amazing, you really have a knack…Banning!)

"Hiss... Hehe, you are the one who makes me think seeing is believing, hiss... Benning."

The ground ghost looked Banning up and down, and the initial surprise soon passed, leaving only the gradually increasing excitement.

·

The Earth Ghost originally didn't want to confront Banning face to face because it would expose his secret surveillance.

But since Heloise has already betrayed him, there is no harm in meeting her. Heloise must have told Banning everything anyway.

In addition, the earth ghost also thought of the old woman Cassie.

He now understood that Cassie's provision of false information and betrayal must have been caused by Banning.

——(This Banning...is indeed not simple...)

——(No wonder the Lord of Eternal Winter went so far as to seek the help of the "Sole Demon God" to kill him...)

——(It seems I can’t use female pawns against him anymore.)

——(This guy won't let go of not only young girls, but even old ladies. He is a scumbag who is even more shameless than us demons!)

Thinking about it this way, Digui felt that this forced meeting was still valuable.

For a long time, the Earth Ghost has been suffering from the fact that he can only control his snake substitute to move around on the land of the Human Alliance. The information he wants is often distorted to a certain extent after being relayed by the "observers".

But now, he can get to know this "Banning" directly. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, because when people succeed in their plans, they often like to show off themselves the most.

And now, this Banning must be feeling extremely proud!

·

"Master Earth Ghost, I want to ask, how did you know me? Also, on what basis did you determine that I was a demon?"

Seeing that Banning was still acting, Digui just wanted to laugh.

——(This guy must have relied on his handsome appearance and acting skills to convince Heloise and Cassie to switch sides.)

Digui knew that under the current conditions, he had no way of changing Heloise's mind. In that case, he might as well take this opportunity to expose Banning's true face and see what kind of person this guy is.

"Hiss... Now that we're face to face, why not stop acting, Benning?"

Hearing what the ghost said, Banning immediately laughed.

"Haha, it's really not easy to find you, Earth Ghost. Is this the second time you've tried to kill me?... What a pity! Your plan to frame me as a demon and have Heloise kill me has completely failed."

"Hiss... So what if I fail? I can kill you, but you can't kill me. What can you use to fight me?"

The Earth Ghost looked at the smug Banning and felt very satisfied.

The prouder a person is, the easier it is to be angered. His next move is to anger Benning to the extreme.
