A strange world

Chapter 1027 Chapter 258. Traitor

Many people outside were watching Annan's every move, so he took Dirk back to the Purification Court first.

Because they arrived in time, and the living Freedom Blade is valuable, Dirk and others only had some superficial injuries.

After learning that the person who captured him was the notorious President of the Purification Court, Dirk spat: "Kill me, we won't say anything!"

"Jie Jie, you don't seem to know where this is. The Purifying Court, the burial ground of your freedom blades!"

"Sir...Sir, please stop scaring Boss Dirk..." the middle-aged man who came over said quickly.

"looks like?"

Dirk stared at him solemnly and said, "You didn't escape either?"

"An...Young Master Olmei is one of our own." The middle-aged man still knew but did not reveal Annan's identity.

"impossible!"

Is the president of the Purification Tribunal who captured the freedom-killing blade one of his own? Might as well say he is Annan Reeves!

"That's right, it's this look... This look of hatred that can't kill me... Jie Jie!" Annan laughed strangely, "Of course I am one of my own, because he was the one who betrayed you!"

Maria cast a confused look, and Annan exchanged glances with her and told her not to speak.

"Prepare torture tools for my guests, um... I remember there is a punishment called salt prison in the Purification Court?"

"That's right, Your Majesty. We will stuff the prisoner's eyes, nose, mouth, and buttocks with salt, and let him die painfully in the thirsty hell, leaving behind a complete dehydrated body."

"Very good, I think it's just right for these free blades, Jie Jie."

Maria wanted to say that this kind of laughter is really not suitable for you, but since Annan was having fun, she turned around and got ready.

"No... no, sir, I am one of my own!"

A shout suddenly rang out among the restless and silent Free Blades, and the man wearing a felt hat cried: "I am a spy arranged to come in, not a Free Blade!"

The Blades of Freedom all looked at their former companions with expressions of disbelief. At this moment, he no longer felt any shame, and he named several names, indicating that he had sneaked into the City of Freedom under the orders of Sheriff Milburn.

Annan exhaled and said to Maria, who had not walked far away and was standing behind the corner, "Are my acting skills good?"

"As expected of Mr. Annan..." Dirk echoed, and he bowed deeply to Annan.

Annan personally untied him and said in surprise: "You know all this?"

"We may be weak, but we are definitely not stupid."

They develop slowly on Holt Street, so although local residents don't like to have their peaceful lives disrupted by the Freedom Blade, they don't have the opportunity to come into contact with them. After being caught, Dirk thought for a long time. He could only think that there was something wrong with one of his own...

But until the spy jumped out, he thought it was someone who accidentally let something slip, rather than a traitor...

"Are you the rat lady?" he asked Maria.

Maria nodded reservedly.

Finally, Dirk looked at his pale-faced former companion, unable to understand his betrayal: "Buster, I can't believe you were the one who betrayed us...Have you forgotten our declaration!?"

"What a bullshit declaration to save all the people like us? We can't even save ourselves!" The man named Buster was so stimulated by the sudden changes that he lost his mind and roared: "Remember Horn, and Aunt Lime, do you remember how they died? Did anyone come to save them?"

"I just want to live and not have to worry about what to eat tomorrow. That woman gave us a bag of money, but did you buy anything with it? No! We still can only eat one meal a day! I'm fed up, What’s wrong with me working for the nobles? At least I treat their dogs like meat!”

"Is there any difference between being a dog in Liberty City or a dog in the Kingdom? They are all hiding behind and watching us fight! The only one who can save us is ourselves!"

"Sorry to interrupt." Annan suddenly interrupted Buster's hysterics, "You seem to have forgotten what Dirk called me just now."

Buster, whose eyes were scarlet and foaming at the mouth, was stunned.

"I, Annan Reeves, personally came to the new capital in order to destroy the Kingdom of Ruikaner. So your words of 'hiding behind' are not accurate." Annan said softly.

"As for what I just said, one thing is true."

"The Salt Prison does exist."

In the end, Annan still did not use the salt prison to try Buster. This had nothing to do with the fear of causing Dirk and the others to die, but because Buster was not guilty of this.

The traitor's matter is resolved, and Annan is ready to talk to Dirk. He suddenly said: "Sir Annan...can you send us to the front line?"

"Why?"

"We know your identity..."

"What's the matter? Am I worried about you betraying me?" Annan smiled.

Dirk said seriously: "We will not betray you because of interests like Buster did, but we cannot be sure that we can still keep the secret when the painful punishment pries open our mouths."

"You must have never seen Let the Magic Fly."

"what is that?"

"Teach you how to unite whatever you can unite and fight against the enemy."

Dirk was still insistent. Seeing that he couldn't be moved, Annan had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll let you go to Little Small."

At least Liberty City has twelve more future residents.

Witnessing the emotional Dirk stepping into the portal, they ended their struggle in the new royal capital, and their hope will be carried by Annan to destroy the Kingdom of Ruikaner.

As for the outcome of the traitor Buster... Although he escaped from the Salt Prison, he will still be hanged as the Blade of Freedom.

Sheriff Milburn…

He avoided being framed as a Blade of Freedom because Annan was suddenly transferred to the Court of Purification, but he couldn't blame Annan for jumping out on his own initiative...

Buster sat in the cell in despair, thinking about everything that happened during the day?

Am I really wrong? For the sake of profit, he betrayed his companions who lived together day and night. What was the difference between what he did and the people of the Kingdom whom he hated?

Da da da--

The sound of footsteps in the quiet dungeon made him raise his head and saw the president of the court... no, Annan Reeves, the Lord of Free City, standing outside the cell.

"Do you want to be punished and make meritorious service?"

…

Dozens of minutes later, Annan obtained Buster's "perjury" and with the witness, they were able to break into Sheriff Millburn's estate and search.

The nobles' butts are not clean, especially the city guards. Not to mention heinous, they are also full of crimes and there will be no shortage of evidence of guilt.

If it doesn't work, Annan can still create evidence.

Before dealing with this former rival, Annan took the time to return to his official residence. Unexpectedly, Olmedo had already heard the news.

"The guardian church you asked about before has the result."
