Chapter 27: Maximum 48 hours

Supported by him, Su Shi sat down stiffly.

The system was inexplicably silent, and there was no response to the emergency call, but the basic background of this world was sent over silently.

The place where he is located is called the Warren Continent. Under the protection of light and faith, people generally possess supernatural power. But in the past hundred years, there have been incidents where people have grown darkness in their hearts, and because of this, they have become depraved and demonized.

Demonized people will follow their original desires, but their power will increase sharply in a short period of time, causing harm and killing on the mainland, causing a lot of chaos.

The one he passed through was one of the paladins responsible for guarding the Holy See, named Ivan, who was good at ice-based attacks. Just a week ago, Ivan assassinated the Pope, and even nearly succeeded, but fortunately, he was treated in time, and the Pope is now out of danger.

The Holy See judged that he had also become demonized, made his crimes public, and put him in the most strictly guarded prison. He was expected to be sentenced to death in two days.

Really only 48 hours left.

The person in front of him still stood quietly, his deep eyes fell on him, waiting for him to defend himself.

The other party was tall, with a handsome face, and short dark hair that was neat and tidy. Although he was wearing the luxurious robes unique to high priests, he still exuded a resolute and decisive aura.

Looks like the main character.

Su Shi took a deep breath and suddenly felt a little stomachache.

Only Ivan knew that the current pope was no longer the pope, and the soul belonging to the pope had already been swallowed by monsters. But as a paladin, his loyalty and responsibility to protect the Holy See for generations made him unable to speak out all this. He could only choose to take risks and try to kill the monsters controlling the Holy See by himself.

His task this time is to [bear the burden of humiliation, bear the infamy of the fallen, deliver a fatal blow at the end of his life, and perish with the already demonized pope].

After his death, the protagonist Esmond quickly discovered the secret of the Pope's depravity and demonization, and responded quickly, leading the paladins to clean up other bishops who had already been controlled.

Esmond was the youngest cardinal in the Holy See, and he saved the almost controlled Holy See at a critical moment, so he was naturally promoted to the position of Pope.

And he will be sealed in a hard layer of ice together with that monster full of evil and darkness, and sleep forever under the deep sea.

The mission was right in front of him. For the experience points of Paladin Glory, no matter how patiently the other party listened, he would not be able to say anything.

The system stopped moving at a critical moment, so Su Shi had no choice but to take the risk. The scarred body suddenly exploded, and suddenly knocked the person in front of him away, and rushed out of the prison with determination.

A fiery attack followed closely behind him, and hot black flames instantly surrounded him, firmly blocking his way out.

Su Shi stopped abruptly, instinctively covering his head and neck to avoid it. Those flames were absorbed by the ordinary-looking bricks and stones in an instant, and shot back violently towards the people behind them.

In order to prevent someone from escaping from the prison, this prison can devour all magic power and return it to the caster doubled. This is a secret that only paladins will know.

Taking advantage of the opponent being trapped, Su Shi was about to take the opportunity to escape, but suddenly a sharp siren sounded in his ear that the life value of the task subject was threatened.

With a breath stuck in his chest, Su Shi barely stopped, and staggered to a stand still and turned around. Taking advantage of the other party's lack of time to pay attention, he hurriedly threw a few ice warblers over, and then quickly broke through the encirclement and plunged into the boundless night.

This prison has the effect of enhancing strength. Esmond was struggling with the flames, and he caught a glimpse of the other party turning around and attacking at this time, and his heart sank.

What he didn't expect was that those crystal clear ice warblers didn't attack him, but flapped their wings to protect him, quickly cooling down the scorching temperature.

Seizing the opportunity to quickly extinguish the flames around him, Esmond subconsciously raised his hand and let the only remaining Ice Warbler land on it.

The little bird made of ice had been half-melted by the fire, and landed on his palm. After lightly flapping its wings twice, its head drooped powerlessly, and quickly melted into a puddle of ice water on his hand.

He clenched his fist subconsciously, but the icy water had already dripped down between his fingers, and was dried up by the scorching ground in a blink of an eye.

Esmond withdrew his gaze, shook his head at the rushing soldiers to show he was okay, and took a few steps forward, his gaze fell into the night that the paladin had disappeared into.

"There's no need to rush to track him down. The Holy See has branded him, and he can always be found."

Signaling the soldiers to back away, Esmond walked into the night, his voice still calm and calm: "I will take care of this matter, and there is no need to report it to the Pope. I will bring him back in two days."

Su Shi staggered forward.

Obviously, he could stay in prison, be tortured for two days in peace, and then die with the Pope when he was executed in public, easily taking away this wave of experience points.

Just because I said one more word.

Seeing that the situation became unreasonably complicated again, he became inexplicably angry.

He was marked with a capital crime, and anyone had the right to kill him. To complete the task, he must find a way to survive the two days before bearing the burden of humiliation and dying.

The branding was burning all the time, devouring the strength in his body continuously, and the bit that was finally recovered was completely used up when he rescued the protagonist just now.

It was completely dark, and he had exhausted his strength after walking for a while. He leaned against the wall and wanted to sit down, but suddenly he heard a loud noise coming from the end of the street.

Su Shi frowned and raised his head. Suddenly, he saw a figure running towards him. He instinctively turned his body to get out of the way, and then raised his head to meet a group of fallen people with black eyes in their eyes.

A fallen person usually loses most of his sanity and only acts on his instinctive desires. He has the aura of a paladin, and he is the best prey that attracts these guys the most.

With a dull sigh, Su Shi regained his exhausted body, turned sideways to avoid a random punch, clamped the arm in front of him, and raised his knee to slam into the opponent's lower abdomen.

People on this continent are more prone to magic attacks, and most of them are very weak in melee combat. It didn't take long for Su Shi to put the group of depraved people on the ground, leaning on the wall to barely stabilize his figure, but found that the young man who had just run past was still standing there.

"They won't chase you anymore, it's dangerous at night, go home quickly."

Judging by the clothes, he is an ordinary civilian youth, and he probably doesn't have any combat power. Su Shi smiled faintly at him, gave him a gentle instruction, closed his eyes tiredly and sat down.

The young man still walked towards him, squatted down and took his arm: "You saved me, I should repay you."

The clothes on Su Shi's body had been tortured to tatters, and when he unintentionally pulled them off, the bloody brand on his neck was exposed.

Sensing the other party's gaze, Su Shi hooked the corners of his mouth and deliberately frightened him with a smile: "I'm a criminal about to be executed, aren't you afraid?"

The young man didn't say a word, just supported him to stand up, and carried him to the end of the alley.

The footsteps echoed lightly and heavily in the alley.

"What crime did you commit, why did the Holy See execute you?"

After asking a question but getting no response, the young man turned his head and looked over, only to realize that the person beside him had bowed his head at some point, his broken hair was scattered between his foreheads, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, and he was only following him and barely moved by instinct. pace.

He tried to call out a few times, but the people beside him were completely unresponsive.

Darkness flashed in the young man's eyes, he stopped suddenly, passed his hand through the bend of his leg, and hugged him completely horizontally.

When Su Shi woke up again, he was already lying on a wooden bed.

The wounds on his body have been properly treated and bandaged carefully, and even the pain that has always troubled him seems to have faded a lot.

Standing up and looking out the window, the sky is already bright, the sun is streaming in through the window, and a few civilian children are chasing and playing under the tree.

It seems that at least seven or eight hours have been successfully persisted.

Su Shi's mood improved a lot in an instant, and he couldn't help curling the corners of his lips, and heaved a very light sigh of relief.

The young man happened to come in from outside the door, seeing the faint smile on the face of the person on the bed, he subconsciously stopped in his tracks.

Paladins are usually fully armed, and he didn't know that there was such a delicate and delicate face under the heavy and cold armor until he saw him in prison.

Wen Run's brows and eyes were completely stretched, he was no longer weak and gloomy in prison, and the sun fell on him, making him appear more clear and gentle.

The light in those eyes was very gentle, and the eyes fell outside the window, and the corners of the lips curved slightly.

The young man walked over unconsciously, and followed his gaze to look out the window.

"Did you bring me back?"

Seeing the person walking in, Su Shi came back to his senses and smiled at him: "Thank you, I'm much better now."

His eyes fell on the few civilian children outside the window, and the young man's expression softened a little, and he turned to him: "You saved me first, of course I should pay back."

As he said that, he was already sitting sideways on the bed, helping Su Shi sit still, and handing over the bowl of medicine in his hand.

"You don't look like a bad person. Why were you convicted by the Holy See? Did they wrong you?"
