A strange world

Chapter 1024 Section 255. Seeking Help

"Do you desire power?"

The whisper of the Iron Girl lingered in the cell...

Dang--

The amulet in his arms suddenly fell, and Annan lowered his head to pick it up: "Sorry, what did you say?"

"Do you want wealth?"

The whisper of the Iron Girl filled the dungeon...

Annan chuckled and waved his right hand with the magic ring.

A mountain of treasures made of gold coins and gems appeared in the dungeon, shining brightly under the light of the magic oil lamp.

"There is a joke in Middle-earth: One day Annan picked up a lamp, and the genie in the lamp said that if he met me, he could make three wishes. Annan nodded: 'Say the first one.'"

This time the Iron Girl was silent for a long time: "Do you want to destroy the capital? I'll help you..."

This time Annan was a little interested because the Iron Girl revealed some information.

"Do you want to destroy the new capital, or destroy everything?" He asked back.

"Is there a difference between them..."

"I want to destroy the new capital, just to smash the rulers and exploiters here and save the civilians, not to eliminate everyone in the capital."

The Iron Girl fell into deep thought, and the whole dungeon seemed to become quiet and deep as she thought.

"Don't you hate them? Everyone here is an accomplice, and they should be punished..."

"This is our difference." Annan spread his hands.

"Save me out, I will help you..."

"Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter..."

Annan shook his head: "I can't believe in an existence that doesn't even want to reveal its identity."

Will good people be imprisoned in the dungeon by the Guardian Church of the Order Camp? Will good people be placed in the deepest part of the dungeon and locked up, and deliberately abandoned when retreating?

"You must help me, because..."

The coldness around suddenly intensified, and the Iron Girl's voice gradually rose.

Bang——

The door that was suddenly knocked open woke up the sleeping Annan.

"Cousin, I caught a free blade!" Martin shouted when he pushed the door in.

Annan sat up, not knowing whether to be helpless about being woken up by Martin or being saved by him at the critical moment, and then he was attracted by his words.

"What do you mean by catching the Free Blade?"

Annan hurriedly followed Martin to the Purification Court dungeon and saw the middle-aged man locked in the cell.

Maria whispered in Annan's ear at this time: "He is Dirk's man."

"How could he be caught by Martin?"

After Annan entered the Purification Court, he also transferred Martin here, but did not let him do anything, just put him in the Purification Court as a mascot.

"That man ran outside the Purification Court and said he had something urgent to find you, and happened to run into Martin, and was tied up by Martin as the Free Blade."

Martin's luck is still very good, and he has merits in the Purification Court... but this luck does not distinguish between enemies and friends.

He walked up to the middle-aged man, who looked at Annan for a few times and pleaded, "Sir, please help us!"

"You actually let a Purification Court help you?" Annan pretended to be unaware and said, "Catch him."

"Sir! That woman who calls herself a rat man, she is someone close to you, right!" the middle-aged man shouted hurriedly.

Annan and Maria looked at each other. Was she found out?

Let Maria take the middle-aged man to the study. As for Martin...

"You did a good job."

Martin may have forgotten that the Free Blade was his own, but it also happened to avoid the danger of "being tricked by the fake Free Blade to expose Annan".

Annan then came to the study and personally untied the middle-aged man's rope.

"Tell me, what happened?"

"We followed your..." He looked at Annan cautiously, and seeing that there was no rebuttal, he felt relieved: "...instructions, and focused on expanding secretly in Hot Street, but the locals did not support us very much. We only developed more than 20 people and were discovered by a gang. We could have beaten them and cleaned up the gang to establish prestige, but we didn't expect that they had a water element and we couldn't beat them...

Annan thought of Lemon: "Sheafield?"

"Yes, it's him, the leader of that gang!"

"Then what?"

"Then he arrested all of us and handed them over to the city guards. Only I escaped..."

Annan frowned. Didn't he tell Sheafield not to act rashly when encountering the Free Blade and send someone to notify him? Why did he do it himself...

"That's why you came to me?" Annan returned his attention to the present, staring at the middle-aged man and said, "Do you know who I am? ”

“I know, the new president of the Purification Court…” Speaking of this position, the middle-aged man shrank his neck nervously.

The Purification Court was originally a secret organization, but because Annan made too much noise these days, everyone knows about it.

“Then you dare to come to me.”

“We really have no choice! We can’t beat them, Dirk was also captured, and I couldn’t find the lady of the rat man I asked for help… Then I remembered that Dirk said that the lady of the rat man looked a bit like the people around you, so I came to try my luck.”

The middle-aged man was uneasy. Everyone knows how terrible the Purification Court is… Those who were caught by them are all free blades! Boss Dirk also specifically told them to stay away from the Purification Court. If he hadn’t been the only one who escaped…

“You are really lucky.”

The middle-aged man raised his head in surprise: “You really are…”

Annan did not answer, but asked another question: “Didn’t I give you an address, why don’t you go there?”

“I went there, but there was no one…”

Annan knocked his head. This was his negligence... He had been focusing all his energy on the Purification Court recently and forgot about this.

He said to Maria: "Go and find out what's going on in Sheafield."

"good."

A familiar female voice sounded to the middle-aged man, and he felt relieved... He had made the right bet. This guy is indeed related to the Freedom Blade... although I don't understand why he caught so many Freedom Blades.

No one is better at finding out information than the Skaven. Maria came back soon and said that Sheafield had been in contact with others recently and often attended dinner parties of some wealthy people.

Then the clues were pieced together: Annan threw Sheafield into Holt Street, and Sheafield colluded with an unknown noble and started working for them.

"Are you sure? Sheafield isn't that stupid."

Instead of trying to curry favor with your rising self, you should instead try to collude with others...

"It's normal for Gray Gloves to do private work."

Maria's statement justified Sheafield's actions. People on the street are like that, they can sell anything for profit.

"Maria, you continue to investigate who captured Dirk and the others. As for Sheafield...he has no chance."

He was not the Blade of Freedom, and he betrayed the Blade of Freedom and did things behind his back. Annan had no reason to let him go.

"Do we have the talent for assassination?"

"I, I, I—"

Suddenly a voice came from the cell next to it, and a waving arm stretched out from behind the iron bars: "Sir! I was once a shadow guard, and I am best at killing people!"
