Chapter 81

For instance, when facing pressure from the royal authority, the nobles often band together to resist.

Therefore, even the Holy See, in the absence of any evidence, can do nothing about certain suspects.

If they cannot find evidence, they can only question some of the captured demons.

But how could demons possibly open their mouths?

Ordinary demons might not even know anything.

Even if they did know, they might just spout nonsense.

Demons are, after all, extremely cunning.

They would rather be killed than reveal the truth; for them, the price of betraying the Demon God is too great.

They wouldn't even find peace after death!

But this time, there was actually a breakthrough!

Soon, Bishop Feilun arrived at a special place; this was the Inquisition.

Su Mo followed along as well.

Inside the Inquisition, a jailer was being surrounded and fawned over by the crowd.

Being surrounded like this, the jailer felt quite a sense of accomplishment...

He was the "check-in" style protagonist hiding within the Inquisition.

This check-in protagonist had originally intended to hide here and silently check in to grow stronger.

But the recent series of changes made him feel vaguely uneasy.

Especially since Su Mo had turned the tide this time; in Lance's estimation, Su Mo would likely possess some special privileges within the Holy See.

Therefore, he decided to show his worth and seize the opportunity to climb higher.

As it happened, several captured demons had been brought here.

He noticed one demon that was clearly acting strangely, seized the opportunity, and using a skill he had obtained through checking in, successfully made this demon reveal the truth about the recent Demon God invasion!

This truth was quite shocking!

He had already revealed this matter in the protagonist group, causing quite a stir.

"Damn, I didn't expect this Demon God invasion to be orchestrated by Miles and the others, just to deal with you guys—that's too ruthless!"

"These few villains are indeed ruthless!"

"Long Hua, take this chance to kill them!"

"....."

The protagonist group was in an uproar.

"With this merit, I should be able to become a core member of the Inquisition."

The check-in protagonist revealed a smile.

Then, he saw Cardinal Feilun walk in.

Seeing Feilun, the check-in protagonist thought his chance for promotion had arrived; once he became a core member of the Inquisition, even if Su Mo had special privileges in the Holy See, he wouldn't be able to deal with him.

He was just about to speak when he saw Su Mo following beside Feilun.

His expression immediately sank.

"Why is he here?"

The check-in protagonist wasn't overly worried; in his mind, this must be a privilege Su Mo received after his recent meritorious service.

But he shouldn't think about dealing with him.

"Your Excellency Bishop, this demon was hit by my skill and confessed everything. Lord Mibai tested it with divine arts, and everything it said is true."

The check-in protagonist didn't provoke or acknowledge Su Mo, but instead hurried to claim credit from Bishop Feilun.

Behind Bishop Feilun, Su Mo glanced indifferently at the demon being interrogated by the check-in protagonist.

This demon was a type of servant demon from the Succubus Dynasty.

It was also deliberately left behind when the succubi retreated.

Although the Battle of the Royal Capital had ended this time,

there were still matters left unfinished.

He had set up quite a few people this time.

The Long-Spike Demon God was set up, over a dozen protagonists were set up, and Miles had even lost his life.

As for the Goddess of the New Moon, he hadn't exactly set her up.

Although he swallowed a large amount of her holy energy, if it weren't for Su Mo, her losses would have been far greater.

In short, this time, the villains and the protagonists, including that blockhead Long-Spike, had all been set up by Su Mo.

Now, it was the turn of the few Bai Yin-grade villains who hadn't died yet.

These villains were also unstable factors and clearly held hostility toward him; how could Su Mo let them remain?

This check-in protagonist jumping out on his own was just perfect.

The check-in protagonist was very smug.

Under his control, the demon soon revealed everything.

Nearby, a powerful divine arts practitioner could ensure, through their own divine arts, that what the demon said was correct.

"These nobles are truly lawless!"

After hearing this, Bishop Feilun was furious!

Bishop Feilun subconsciously looked at Su Mo: "Saint... Count, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Seeing Bishop Feilun's attitude, the check-in protagonist's expression changed, and a sense of unease flashed through his heart.

A Cardinal, the person with the highest status in the Holy See besides the Saint and Saintess... why would he ask for the opinion of an outsider like Su Mo when handling such a major matter?

If this was the "privilege" Lance spoke of, then this privilege was a bit too great!

Su Mo glanced at the demon and said, "Just execute the ringleaders; there is no need to implicate their families. Since this jailer was able to perform such a great service, why not dispatch the Temple Knights to arrest the people, and let him be responsible for the execution?"

Hearing Su Mo's words, Bishop Feilun felt a bit strange.

He was puzzled as to why Su Mo wanted this lowly jailer to execute those nobles who had committed crimes.

However, Bishop Feilun still said, "Count's words are reasonable; let it be handled that way."

"He wants me to go kill those villains?"

Nearby, the check-in protagonist never expected Su Mo to make such a proposal.

And Bishop Feilun had actually agreed to it!

The villains who plotted the Demon God invasion this time, besides Miles, included several Bai Yin-grade major villains and several Marquis-level villains.

They were all heirs.

Once he killed them, his protagonist points would definitely be enough to upgrade his golden finger!

He could also become a Bai Yin-grade protagonist in one fell swoop!

This was simply a pie falling from the sky!

But...

This check-in protagonist couldn't feel happy at all; not only could he not feel happy, but his mood slowly sank to the bottom!

Because he felt like a pig that hadn't been slaughtered yet!

Right now, he was still too thin, but after killing a few villains... he would be fat!

And then...

he could be slaughtered!

059 The End of the Bai Yin Villains! Two Fattened Pigs! (Asking for monthly votes)

"By what right do you arrest me? Just based on some baseless accusations, you want to arrest the heir of a Duke's family who has made huge contributions to the Kingdom?"

In the Royal Capital, outside a magnificent mansion, a large number of knights holding large shields and weapons stood in front of a Duke's heir.

Outside the mansion was a squad of a hundred Temple Knights.

This time, it involved demons and Demon Gods, so it was the Temple Knights who took action. ===== CHAPTER 82 =====
