Shall we go to open up the wasteland together tomorrow?

Ethan held the knife in his hand against the woman's neck.

Bryant followed the shadow back, turned into a physical body in an instant, climbed up his left arm, and stared at the group of mercenaries in the distance.

The group of mercenaries breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the girl wake up.

Although the look in their eyes looking at Ethan was angry, there was a hint of easing.

This woman should be very important to them.

"Sigh~"

At this time, Xiaobai broke free from the rope, snorted, and walked towards Ethan with an unhappy face.

Before leaving, it glanced at the mercenary closest to it, and suddenly kicked him.

After kicking him, he ran away.

This was so sudden, like a meteor from the sky, catching people off guard.

The target position was still between the opponent's legs, and the man was too late to dodge when he reacted.

"Ouch!"

"Oh my god!!"

Ethan vaguely heard the sound of heartbreak.

The other mercenaries suddenly felt cold under their bodies, and their eyes changed when they looked at Xiaobai.

Everyone came forward to observe.

"Can it still be used~"

"I don't know~ I haven't used it yet, wuwuwu~"

"That... what a pity~"

"Let's change our way of life~"

...

"Huh, huh."

Ethan almost laughed out loud when he saw the young mercenary rolling on the ground with his hands covering his lower body in pain.

But the girl's innocent character couldn't help but laugh for a moment, and suddenly she was vivid and lively, and then she blushed and said: "Ah, what a dirty bastard! Humans are, and animals are too!"

Ethan smiled awkwardly, and tightened the knife in his hand.

But Xiaobai fiddled with his horse mane as if nothing had happened, and came to Ethan's side in a flash.

A pair of eyes still stared at the group of mercenaries with a show of strength.

"Xilulu~"

He really looked a bit arrogant.

The leading woman looked at Xiaobai enviously, and then glanced at Bryant on Ethan's shoulder.

Suddenly, she turned pale and said, "You, you, you... let me go."

Ethan certainly didn't mean to let go, but remembered the ability that appeared in his mind when he was baptized on the ship: Sin and Punishment.

The first step... trial.

As long as the specific criminal facts of the other party can be confirmed, the target can be judged.

At that moment, Ethan mobilized his telekinesis and said righteously: "I declare... you guilty!"

The woman was originally sympathetic, but suddenly Ethan's words rang in her ears, and she looked confused.

But Ethan saw an incredible scene in his eyes.

A flame mark suddenly appeared on the front of the woman's right arm.

This mark is black, which is consistent with the mark he saw when he was baptized. This is the "sin mark" mentioned in the ability.

As long as the person who is declared guilty by himself will have such a "sin mark" on his body, of course, this mark can only be seen by the caster.

"Huh? What's wrong with you? Shen Jingbing?"

The woman's voice was a little trembling. This kind of person is not against the law to kill people, and there is no burden.

"Hey, you don't feel anything?"

"What do you feel? My neck is a little cold."

The woman glanced at the shining dagger in Ethan's hand.

"Are you sure it's the neck, not somewhere else?"

Ethan asked tentatively.

"Brother, the knife is in your hand, you have the final say..."

The girl didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Why did you catch Xiaobai?"

"To be honest, it was the unicorn who played a hooligan on me first!"

As soon as the voice fell, a small green flame began to burn on the 'sin seal', which is the 'flame of judgment'.

It means that the woman has not yet admitted her greed. The flame that will appear on the seal is the 'flame of judgment', which can burn the target's thoughts.

Then a chain emerged from the flame, which is the second step of 'crime and punishment': judgment.

It is said that when God created all things, he sealed a pair of shackles on every creature, and this shackle is called 'forbidden by heaven's punishment'.

When the seal of the forbidden by heaven's punishment is unlocked, life will also mean the end.

Another function of the Fire of Judgment is to unlock the key of the 'Forbidden Heavenly Punishment'. When it burns, the chain of the Forbidden Heavenly Punishment will slowly unfold.

Sure enough, a knuckle-long chain appeared at the 'sin seal' position on the woman's right arm. It looked very imposing, but the speed of extension was not fast.

The woman didn't seem to notice it yet. At this moment, Bryant turned into a shadow like a prank, and then turned into a physical body from the woman's body.

Just met her eyes.

"Ah~"

This time it was better, the woman didn't faint.

But she couldn't keep calm anymore, and trembled and muttered: "I was wrong! I am guilty! I want to catch this unicorn for myself!"

"I am guilty!"

"I am greedy."

"I am shameless~"

"I don't want face~"

The woman's eyes were filled with tears, and she said what was in her heart like pouring beans.

When she confessed, the flame on the 'sin seal' flickered, Ethan's heart moved, and the chain disappeared out of thin air.

A flash of green light flashed by, and Ethan suddenly felt that something was added to his mind, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

It was obvious that her attitude of admitting her mistakes was still very correct.

Ethan made a knife flower and let the woman go.

It was a bit regrettable that he didn't see the "Forbidden Heavenly Punishment" reappear, but there were plenty of opportunities.

He stretched out his right hand, and Bryant instantly returned to him.

Since Xiaobai was safe and sound, and the other party took the initiative to admit his mistakes, he naturally didn't want to bother with this group of people, after all, the other party had more people and more power.

At this time, the group of adventurers looked at each other. This arrogant lady in the past actually admitted her mistakes? Was she crazy?

Ethan smiled in his heart and then let go of his hand.

Seeing him let go of the woman, the mercenaries also relaxed their expressions.

The leader sheathed his sword and said loudly: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding. We didn't know that this white horse had an owner before. We were wrong first. Thank you for letting us go."

Ethan didn't take the opportunity to threaten them with the woman, and they were already grateful.

What's more, the snake was too weird and really hard to deal with.

Seeing this, Ethan smiled and said: "No fight, no acquaintance~"

Seeing that the relationship eased, Ethan struck while the iron was hot and said: "Where did you come from?"

Ethan has been wandering in the misty world for some time, and he has long lost track of where he is.

This is the first time he has seen a stranger in the misty world in a few months.

To be honest, it was a bit new.

The leading captain said: "Of course we came from Behemoth City."

"Behemoth City is over the hill in front."

"Behemoth City?"

Ethan frowned.

Behemoth City is adjacent to Titan City, and there is David City between it and Mensa City. It is a small city on the western border of the Federation.

Unexpectedly, in just a few months, they have traveled so far from Mensa City in the south of the Federation.

Fortunately, there is a steam train between Behemoth City and Turing City, where Ethan wants to go.

If you take the train, it should take less than a week to arrive, and it should be in time for registration at Flo University.

But before that, he still needs to buy some supplies in Behemoth City.

He did not stop at that moment: "Since there is nothing to do, I will not bother you. We will meet again~"

The woman glanced at Bryant and waved her hand with a sullen face: "See you later, see you later~"

Ethan was slightly stunned. The 'sin seal' on the woman's right arm was still there, and the black box was slowly transmitting the collected sins, but the sins were very few.

He turned and left as if nothing had happened, and vaguely heard a conversation behind him:

"This lady is most afraid of snakes. After returning, you must keep your mouth shut. Do you understand?"

The mercenaries around him looked strange and nodded one after another.

"Then... let's go to the mine again..."

"Still going? Or maybe we should go home early..."

"Huh?!"

"Go, go, go..."

...

According to the direction they pointed, more and more adventurers were walking on the road.

Not long after walking, he came to the top of the hill.

Ethan looked from afar.

The breath of the city came to his face.

A long-lost sense of familiarity surged in his heart.

It turned out that the outside world was so fascinating.

Riding on Little White, Ethan was eager to breathe the air outside the fog.

Although this trip to the fog was unexpected, Ethan and his party gained a lot.

Not only did they find the blessed relics of the ‘Spring of Courage’ and the ‘Spring of Enlightenment’.

They also obtained Professor Taylor’s book.

Little White began to embark on the evolutionary path of Pegasus.

Bryant mastered the extraordinary ability of ‘Shadow Stream’.

Although Xianbei Ma Yun’s personality changed drastically, he also found his own extraordinary props.

As for Ethan, he not only passed the baptism ceremony, but also officially entered the extraordinary sequence and obtained the ability of ‘Sin and Punishment’.

Ethan was so proud that he rode his horse and came to the edge of the fog in a blink of an eye.

After walking out of the fog, a heart that was hanging fell to the ground again.

When happiness came, the long-standing fatigue also hit his heart.

What he wanted to do most now was to find a place to sleep soundly.
