Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1400: The Pagan Appears
As soon as he returned to the outside of the dungeon, Lin Lan noticed that a lot of people had gathered outside the Mander Mansion.

But that was exactly what he wanted to see.

The reason why he just broke in so brazenly was to act as a deterrent.

"Commander, I have synchronized the coordinates of this place with Sister Xia Fei.

"Sister Xia Fei has arrived at the Shimmering Stone City Church. In half an hour at most, she will lead the nuns of the church to come here and take the slaves in the dungeon back for treatment and care."

After the dragoon finished his serious report, Mogador stretched himself and complained in a slightly complaining tone:

"Hey~ Will it take another half an hour? The people of the Holy Light Church are really too inefficient."

Lin Lan knew very well that the purple-haired girl wanted him to finish his work as soon as possible so that she could return to the tavern and have a deep conversation with him.

"I'll get someone to guard here. When that Naga comes out, we'll go straight to the heretic."

As he spoke, he took out a broken piece of light blue crystal from his magic storage ring.

It was the fragment of magic message that the guardian of Shimmerstone City, Mailock, gave him when they entered the city in the morning.

He controlled the invisible breath to inject some elements into the fragment. Soon, a familiar voice sounded from the crystal fragment in his hand:
"Ah, Inquisitor, you are actually a Shaper?

“The president of the Mercenary Association has informed me of your deeds of punishing evil and promoting good on behalf of the gods. I sincerely thank the Inquisition for purifying Shimmerstone City.

"May I ask if there is anything I can help you with? I will definitely..."

Lin Lan ignored the other party's respectful compliments and went straight to the point, interrupting and saying:

"Come to the slave trader Mander's house. I want to see you within five minutes."

He said this in an unquestionable cold tone, not bothering to wait for the other party's reply, and directly cut off the magic message.

"This guy has received a lot of benefits from Manerde. Believe it or not, in three minutes at most, he will kneel down in front of me and beg for mercy."

Lin Lan smiled confidently at the three ship girls who were looking at him.

In fact, he had already guessed the inside story without even reading the slave trader's memory.

Mander's men could unscrupulously send captured slaves into the town. How could Malock, as the local guardian, be unaware of this?
If it weren't for the fact that the Teaching Kingdom was different from Natlan and there weren't many high-level professions willing to stay and guard one side, he would have been killed by this guy when he entered the city.

But having said that, it is necessary to give the other party some moderate criticism.

In fact, only two and a half minutes had passed when the vulture transformed by Mailock's magic flapped its wings and fell from the sky.

When he turned back into human form, he almost immediately knelt down in front of him and the three ship girls. He was no longer as calm and composed as he was in the morning.

"Well, it seems you have guessed why we called you here."

Lin Lan glanced at Marco Polo, Dragoon, and Mogador, then spoke slowly in a cold and indifferent tone:
"You are a very good guardian, Mogador. According to the Holy Tribunal, what is the crime for assisting slave traders in smuggling and selling legal aliens?"

His two sentences were like two sharp thorns, causing the mage, who was crawling on the ground, to tremble all over, with large beads of cold sweat sliding down his cheeks.

However, Lin Lan waited for a few seconds, only to find that Mogador was slow to speak.

He cast a puzzled look at his young judge, only to find that Mogador was giving him an awkward smile and shaking her head frantically.

Well, it seems that not all Iris ship girls can memorize the Law of the Holy Judge of the Nation exactly like Xiafei.

Fortunately, Mailock was so frightened that he lowered his head to the ground and did not see this embarrassing scene.

"Well, it seems that my deputy thinks that you are not hopelessly corrupted."

So he chose to go with the flow and continued to say to Mailok calmly:
"In that case, are you willing to make up for your past sins?"

"I, I do! Thank you all for your kindness, judges! I will never go astray again!"

When Mailoch heard that he had escaped death, he answered immediately with an almost trembling voice.

At this time, Logatis also came out of the dungeon with a group of alien children who had escaped from the slave contract. Lin Lan glanced at these confused children who didn't understand what was happening, and gave his order to Maloq who was still kneeling on the ground:
"Then you will stay here for the time being and guard these children until someone from the church comes to pick them up.

"From now on, you must also spare no effort to cultivate them together with the church and treat them as your own children. Are you willing?"

"I am willing!"

Through the invisible breath's ability to read minds, he could tell that Mailok's answer at this moment was sincere, and then he withdrew his gaze with satisfaction.

After threatening Mailock and forcing him to stand up and wait here, he said goodbye to the children and walked straight out of the manor with the three ship girls.

Noticing that Logatis was still hesitant beside his two compatriots, he said calmly:

"If you want to take them with you, no one will stop you.

"Let's get the business done first."

After hearing what he said, Logatis showed joy on his face and quickly followed their pace.

At this time, outside the Manor, at least a hundred residents of Shimmering Stone City had gathered to watch.

When Lin Lan walked out of the bombed manor gate, his eyes swept over the group of townspeople who were looking at them curiously.

Most of these people were dressed like ordinary people, but there were also quite a few nobles and merchants who were dressed gorgeously and had servants with them.

And when he saw a brown-haired woman hiding behind the crowd, almost completely covered with a cloak, concealing her breath and secretly observing them, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

The reason why he ordered the dragoons to open fire, besides deterrence, had another purpose.

That is to fish out the hidden paganism.

As it turned out, his goal was achieved.

The other party obviously noticed that he was staring at him. His eyes widened almost instantly, and he turned around and tried to escape into the street.

But how could Lin Lan give her this opportunity?

"The court is conducting its business. All outsiders please move away!"

With his cold shout, Mogador instantly locked onto his commander's gaze, turned into a residual image, and disappeared on the spot with a wave of air.

Even though the pagan woman was very skilled and her body was gradually becoming transparent, it was obvious that she was an assassin who was proficient in the art of concealment.

But no matter how good it is at hiding, how can it escape the lock of the ship girls?

Even the Natlan Yuanying Extreme cannot avoid the radar of the ship girls. Once the assassin is targeted by the ship girls, there is no possibility of escape.

"Boom!"

With a dull sound, Mogador, in the blink of an eye, had pinned the assassin woman to the ground with one hand from behind before she could run several meters away.

"Don't move, or I'll pierce your head with the tip of my gun~"

In order to prevent the opponent from resisting, Mogador skillfully aimed the tip of the spear and chain axe in his hand at the opponent's head.

It was not until this moment that the residents of the surrounding Shimmerstone City and Logatis came to their senses and stared blankly at the assassin who was captured by the purple-haired girl.

Especially Logatis, his eyes were full of disbelief.

Even she couldn't react to the speed that Mogador had just exploded at.

But just when Lin Lan was about to take the dragoons and Marco Polo through the retreating crowd and rush to Mogador.

A man dressed in noble attire looked at the woman whose cloak and hood were pulled off by Mogador and who was pressed to the ground and spitting blood, and shouted in horror:
"Isn't she a guard of the Lipton family? Why would someone from the Lipton family be attacked by the Lord of the Inquisition?"
