Civilization Guardian Front

Not only failed to reverse the hostility of Chios, but even the adventurers who followed the young man were not affected.

how so...

Charm of the Goddess of Beauty is not magic that can be observed by the naked eye, nor is it like toxin, which can be exempted as long as the target's physique is strong enough, but a more mysterious, soft and silent power that infuses the spirit.

Unpredictable and directly acting on the mind, the target naturally lacks coping methods.

Coupled with the instant characteristic, once the prey is locked, there is absolutely no way to escape.

Although the effect on each person will be different according to the target's mental toughness due to the lack of divine power amplification, it is absolutely unavoidable.

Unless, the other party also possesses the power of charm...

Ishtar admits that Chios has an outstanding appearance comparable to...or even surpassing most of the gods, but limited by the superficial appearance of the flesh and blood body, at most it is constantly approaching, which is not enough to make his charm step into the extraordinary field.

impossible!

It is impossible for a mere mortal to have the power derived from strengthening a specific concept to the extreme!Especially in the abstract such as "beauty" and "charm", even in the heavens, only a handful of gods have the ability.

She tried to deny the absurd speculation in her heart.

So, how to explain the reality before us?

Ishtar couldn't think of an answer.

This kid is really weird.

she miscalculated...

He thought that by relying on the charm of the God of Beauty, he could easily influence people's thoughts, even if thousands of troops came to invade, he could use one look to disintegrate the hostility and make the opponent collapse without fighting.

In theory, there is nothing wrong with Ishtar's thinking.

I just didn't expect to meet such a monster.

right...

monster.

Chios, who possesses powers that mortals shouldn't have, is undoubtedly some kind of alien in human skin.

The words suitable to describe him, apart from demigods, only "monsters" that cannot be touched by the priesthood match it.

Today, the hunter has become the prey.

Ishtar tilted her eyes, glanced at the black sword with both magical and cursed energy, and then looked at Chios' deep purple eyes that seemed to contain a vast starry sky.

(He's serious...)

Once she acted rashly, the sword blade would surely slash her, tearing the flesh and blood, forcing her to use her divine power, and then send her back to the heaven.

It is taboo for mortals to harm the gods.

A god can only be repatriated by another god himself...

For thousands of years, regardless of the change of power and the evolution of thought in the world, this principle has been adhered to from the beginning to the present.

It is not uncommon for the residents of the lower realms to attack the gods, but the fate of those who violated the taboo is almost never easy.

If Chios really did something, he would definitely be included in the wanted list by the guild.

For a member of another family, at the risk of losing everything, facing the gods with swords...

What a lunatic!

Not only Ishtar, but everyone present was shocked by the unimaginable scene in front of them and froze on the spot.

"Pesheim... Your Excellency..."

Hodum, head of the Ioke clan, clenched his fists, his voice choked up.

What is his virtue and ability, he deserves Chios, who has a bright future, to lend a helping hand without hesitation...

Perhaps, the so-called heroes are just like that.

Fearless and dangerous, stand up against all unreasonable things in the world, even if you lose your foothold, you will have no regrets.

Compared with being superior, a god who always does whatever he wants regardless of the persuasion of mortals.Heroes who show the good side of human nature everywhere are the bright beacons that people should follow desperately and firmly support.

It is precisely because they are mortal bodies like them, unlike gods who are eternal.The trade-offs he made after abandoning stability are particularly dazzling.

The weight called enlightenment weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.

Looking at the young man who threatened the goddess with his sword, the fighting whores who should be angry, at this moment, involuntarily lowered their weapons.

On the other hand, the adventurers behind Chios are full of fighting spirit.

They didn't follow the wrong man...

"West Anderson, an adventurer who belongs to the Ioq family and disappeared in the brothel on Youhua Street, where is he? Is it safe?"

Not paying attention to the gazes of the people around him, Chios asked sharply.

Threatened by the sword blade that might wipe her neck at any time, and at the same time not sure how the young man used to block the charming Ishtar, she dared not use her ability rashly.

At this time, even if you pretend to be ignorant, you can't convince the other party.

"He's fine..." Ishtar replied calmly:

"Because I suspect that he has information on the prisoners who kidnapped my regiment members, I just ask him to stay at the stronghold for the time being."

"With all due respect, you have no right to do so."

Chios smiled, but his eyes were still frosty.

"The correct questioning procedure is to submit an application to the guild, wait for the relevant unit in charge of the matter to issue a formal order, and then the neutral family members designated by the management agency will go to summon witnesses. Therefore, in response to your violation of law and discipline, I have to take Extraordinary measures, please understand..."

The implication is that both parties acted in violation of due process, and no one should blame the other.

"Now, can we see Mr. Anderson?"

"..." Ishtar looked a bit embarrassed.

Seeing this, Chios raised his eyebrows.

"What? I suddenly remembered that he had scars on his body, and I was calculating how many bottles of panacea to fill? If the family has financial difficulties, do you need me to write you a check and fill in the medical expenses? Don't worry, I will pay the money back worthy."

(asshole...)

Ishtar was so angry that she almost used her divine power to tear the man in front of her.

He obviously has a delicious face, but the words he speaks are so detrimental.

As the ruler of Happy Street, how can she lack the money to buy a few bottles of panacea!

"Phryny, bring the man."

"Whoa whoa."

The Amazon is broad and fat, with a huge head that accounts for almost one-third of the body. At first glance, it looks like a giant toad walking upright. The Amazon nodded.

Chapter 630 Four? Immediate Response

Without waiting too long, the subject was brought out of the palace...

The young adventurer, who looked less than 20 years old, didn't seem to be injured in any way.The strange thing is that he is obviously in good health, but his head is lowered, and he seems not energetic.

Seeing his appearance, many people felt something was wrong.

Holdem stepped to the front of the line to make himself more visible.

"West!"

He was imprisoned and lost his freedom of movement, and had no way of contacting the outside world. Hearing the call of the regiment leader now, it stands to reason that he should be refreshed, or even excited.

However, the other party just raised his head slowly, looked at Holdem with dull eyes, and wriggled his lips weakly in response:

"Head..."

Witnessing the scene where a large number of adventurers, including their family companions, confronted the battle whore, there was no emotion on their faces.

It's as if he's simply responding instinctively to the familiar vocals.

Seeing this, Chios frowned slightly.

"Why are you so weak?" Holdem asked even more anxiously:

"Did the Ishtar Familia do something to you?"

"I...I...this..."

First, he spit out a few main words intermittently, and then, as if he was stimulated by some kind of stimulation, West put his hands on his head and shook his head violently.

"Maybe...no, definitely not...yes, definitely not! Big, probably..."

He murmured fragmentary narratives that were hard to connect with the context, and fell into sometimes depressed and sometimes hysterical soliloquy.

I can't understand what he wants to express at all.

What is certain is that the person has received a shock of such magnitude that it shakes the foundations of the spirit.

unacceptable...

Although he had prepared for the worst when he came here, the adventurers who came with Chios were all shocked and indignant when they saw a person who was supposed to be normal turn into a mental disorder.

Compared with physical injuries that can be healed by potions and magic, mental trauma is undoubtedly much more difficult to deal with. Depending on the severity of the situation, it may not be healed in a lifetime.

As for the culprit of all this...

They all set their eyes on the Amazon, which is different from ordinary people.

Even the members of the Ishtar Familia never deny that Phryne turned people into useless people, and it is well known to Ola Liji himself.

"We need an explanation..." Chios didn't even bother to look at the ugly toad, his purple eyes fixed on Ishtar.

"I'm sure you won't tell us that Mr. Anderson just drank a glass of water served by the noble family, and then he fell into this distraught state?"

"Explain what..."

Ishtar lowered her hand holding the tobacco rod, sighed, and exhaled a small amount of gray smoke.

"As you can see, the man didn't have any scratches on his body, and the clothes he was wearing were also intact. This is the best evidence that my family didn't use lynching without authorization."

"I couldn't have predicted in advance that you would bring your allies and force your way into my territory. If there was such a thing as torture, you think there is a way to heal all the wounds in just a few minutes, and at the same time mend the clothes to the Can't you see a trace?"

Hearing this, Chios nodded slightly.

"Um..."

Using advanced recovery medicine or even panacea can quickly heal the injury, but after the wound is closed and healed, the new skin is rosy in color, and the process of degeneration and shrinkage of excess microvessels does not happen overnight, and it takes time to slowly fade away.

"Although it is impossible to rule out the possibility that your members used non-overt means of hurting people, there is indeed some truth. However, Mr. Anderson's current abnormal behavior, how are you going to convince us? We have sufficient witnesses to prove that, West Anderson was not in this state until last night when he parted ways with his companions."

Facing the above question, Ishtar replied:

"I know it's difficult to completely dispel your doubts, but I really don't know..."

Her usual haughty attitude slowed down unexpectedly, adding a bit of persuasiveness to her words.

"When the fighting whore found him in the shop on Flower Street, he had already fallen into a coma. The cadres judged that he might know something, so they took him back to the stronghold first. As a result, when the man woke up, he was in this state of depression ."

"Compared with doubting me, don't you think that the gangster who kidnapped my group members last night is more suspected?"

As soon as these words came out, the adventurer on Chios' side couldn't help but startled.

The battle whore on the side of Goddess Ishtar has a weird look on her face.

(Sure enough, he intends to bring trouble to the east. As expected of a conspiracy, he is quite smart...) Chios thought to himself.

When he sneaked into the brothel, he just used rune magic to make West fall asleep. As an insider, he naturally wouldn't believe Ishtar's words.However, this did not prevent him from giving high praise to Ishtar's quick response.

Although there was a brief fluctuation in her mind after the charm failed, Ishtar immediately thought of a plan to break out from the disadvantage.

Ishtar must know which side the residents of Orario will support if her faction with a bad reputation is declared war in the name of righteousness by the "Sword of Dawn".

Public anger is hard to offend.

When the pressure from the grassroots is fed back to the upper echelons, how to handle this incident will affect the prestige of the ruling group.

It is conceivable that with the ever-growing consortium of the chamber of commerce staring at the back, the guild would not be willing to take the risk of losing the support of a large number of citizens to protect the Ishtar family.

Therefore, Ishtar must try her best to pin the responsibility on the bandits who took Chun Ji away last night.

Since West is a customer named Chun Ji, he was also at the scene when the robbery happened.

In view of this, the chances of the prisoner using unknown methods to destroy West's spirit based on reasons such as clearing obstacles to committing the crime and solving witnesses are not insignificant.
