A big bird with red eyes hovered in the sky, making piercing calls from time to time. It raised its head, moved its throat like rumination, and spit out a mouthful of mucus with a croak sound.

Back away! Kai shouted.

Rowan cursed and tightened the reins, and his centaur stood up, narrowly avoiding the goo. The yellow-brown dirt smashed into the ground, making a sizzling sound, easily corroding the fallen leaves, and burning a deep pit in the ground.

Line up, listen to my slogan, do it again! The patrol captain took the lead, shouted, and threw a spear at the big bird. The bird dodged the tip of the spear, but a few feathers were poked off, causing it to croak and scream, becoming even more ferocious.

For the past half hour, they had been using various methods to provoke the rotten stork so that it would stay and attack instead of taking advantage of the opportunity to escape. More than half an hour later, the morale of the members of the patrol team was much lower than at the beginning. Fortunately, the physical strength of a rotten stork was also limited. The more it used its talents, the fewer opportunities it had to escape.

rise!

Following this command, the team members occupying important nodes activated their abilities at the same time. Water pillars, fire pillars, wind blades and light pillars rose into the sky at the same time, blocking the rotten stork's circling path. The flat-haired animal turned around and was weighed down by its heavy body, and a large piece of it fell off guard. The physically strengthened captain jumped off his horse, the spear in his hand ready to go.

However, at this moment, the rotten stork suddenly opened its mouth. It skipped the preliminary action of retching and directly spat out a mouthful of acid - it actually held the acid in its mouth and endured the corrosion to lay a trap! Kai's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw the acid rushing towards her face, and it was about to fall on her head.

brush! A shield rose into the air and hit the acid. It made a teeth-searing corrosive sound, and flew all the way towards the rotten stork without losing its momentum. The rotten stork hurriedly flapped its wings and barely avoided the whirling shield, but its body dropped further. This height is not high enough for ordinary people to touch it. It only takes a breath for it to stabilize and fly back into the air. Unfortunately, it has no chance.

A figure was faster than a flying bird. He jumped into the air, holding a big sword, and the tip of the sword was facing the bird's belly. At the lowest point of the rotten stork's descent, the iron sword split open the bird's belly, and blood spurted out. The next second the man landed firmly on the ground, and the rotten stork's body also fell to the ground.

Great job, Chris!

The team members cheered and drove their horses closer one by one. Chris wiped the blood from his cheek with the back of his hand and stood there watching as the man walked towards the bird carcass and dug out the crystal core.

Thank you. Kai stood up and nodded approvingly, You saved my life.

Chris smiled back, but before he could say anything, Rowan had already screamed: Your sword! Isn't the blood of the Rotten Stork non-corrosive?

Only half of the iron sword in Chris' hand was left, and the front part of the sword melted like a candy bar soaked in hot water. I accidentally cut the acid sac. Chris dropped the sword regretfully and explained.

You are taking too many risks. Rowan frowned, You have unlocked all the armor. What if you are sprayed with acid?

If I don't take off my armor, I can't jump so high. Chris shook his head, And I've calculated the approximate position, so even if I get splashed, it won't be fatal.

But there will be scars on your face! Rowan said distressedly.

Okay, everyone! Kai clapped his hands and signaled everyone to calm down, Our mission has been completed! Everyone involved will take a day off, and the rotten stork's body and crystal core will be turned in, but at the end of this month, everyone You can all receive an extra reward!”

The patrol team cheered and dispersed. They gathered together in twos and threes and discussed the process of killing the rotten stork just now. They all had something to talk about for a long time.

Since the end of the last great beast tide, Abori City has not seen any strange beasts for at least seven years. The alien beasts were blocked for dozens of miles by the Tibes defense line, and none of them could threaten the citizens of Abori. Compared with the threat of alien beasts far away, for the patrol team, dealing with human conflicts is a daily task.

Chris volunteered to collect the carcass of the rotting stork together. The bird with its wings spread out was as long as two people and required two people to carry it. He took out his dagger and quickly disposed of the acid sac and collected the body.

Kai wrapped a cloth around the core that the team had dug out, frowning at its size. She squatted down and opened the bird's beak to take a look, then touched her chin in confusion.

This bird is only three years old? Chris noticed with sharp eyes, It grows up so fast.

The crystal core is too big. It shouldn't be a three-year-old rotten stork. Kai shook his head, Forget it, let the people in robes worry about it.

I don't know how this bird flew here. Rowan, another person who stayed, asked. This was Chris's problem too, and he kept his ears open as he tidied up.

Maybe he hit his head and flew in the wrong direction, who knows. Kai replied absently.

But Captain, I've seen another bird. Chris added.

You'd better not have seen it. Kai sighed, Otherwise they want us to catch another bird that's nowhere to be found, and we'll have to spend the next week as hunters? The biggest thieves in the city. We should all be overjoyed, we have enough to worry about since Sullivan is gone.

Chris hesitated to speak, but Rowan shut him up with a wink, comforting him: It's autumn now, so many migratory birds always fly to the wrong side, right? Chris, how about I give you a new sword? Like? That iron sword of yours already has a hole in it, don’t feel bad.

You can choose the best among the next batch of weapons. Kai said, As a thank you gift for today, don't refuse.

The two people present obviously didn't want Chris to pursue it. This young omega is a good warrior with noble character, but unfortunately he is too square and always gets into trouble. He may have been too deeply poisoned by knight novels. But except for the registered knights under the great nobles, how can ordinary patrol members have the confidence and qualifications to follow the knight's code?

The young man who was regarded as inflexible by his colleagues sighed secretly and had no choice but to show a compromising smile. He always had a bad premonition, worried that this year's Tibes defense would be under greater pressure than before. Winter is the season when the tide of small beasts overflows in the Thebes Defense Line. Autumn has entered, and winter is not far away.

Chris really loves to worry, and he always has a sense of responsibility in his heart to protect the people. This is why he overcame all difficulties and joined the patrol team. Neither the army nor the border guards accept omegas. His thoughts had drifted far away, wondering if he should write a letter...

Chris, are you listening?

Rowan called him, and Chris quickly smiled politely. Rowan was also used to Chris's reticence, and he continued to talk: So that Sullivan is in the college, and you know that it is difficult to get information in that place...

Wait, what college is Sullivan in? Chris woke up with a start.

You are indeed distracted! Rowan screamed strangely.

I'm sorry, I might be a little tired.

Chris apologized solemnly, but Rowan was a little embarrassed. Didn't you ask me to find out where that monster went? She was taken to St. Andrew's Seminary, he said.

St. Andrew's Seminary? Chris asked in disbelief. Isn't that the best church college that only pious people can enter? She was not judged?

If there is a public trial, you don't have to ask around. Rowan said, Some big shot probably wants her to be useful. She is the last Sullivan after all.

No matter what her identity is, she still kills someone! Chris frowned, All laws stipulate that murder must be punished with life, not to mention that there are hundreds of victims, and quite a few of them are even related to her.

What era do you live in, Paladin? Rowan laughed and said, She is an alpha noble with powerful powers. She kills either civilians or useless old, weak, sick, and omegas. If anyone is alive, Maybe he will still insist on holding her accountable, but she is the only one left with Sullivan, right? Do you want to hold the remaining one accountable for a bunch of dead people? I guess if she is sent to the capital for trial, His Majesty the King would also like to let her live. Better hurry up and give birth to a bunch of little Sullivans.

Evil is evil, and it is not right just because it has been condoned. Chris said solemnly.

Okay, that's wrong. Luo Wen prevaricated, Maybe the church people sent her to the academy for reform.

Rowan didn't care whether the guy was influenced or not. Rather than what happened to the unknown person, he wanted to know which big shot was involved, bypassing the king's ruling and pardoning him. But it's best not to pursue it, because the sooner you pursue it, the sooner you'll die. He was tired of this topic. If Chris hadn't been a handsome and powerful omega, he wouldn't have bothered to deal with such a stupid head.

Whether or not he is a fool is another matter, but Chris is not stupid. He sensed the other party's impatience and swallowed the rebuttal.

Chris doesn't think the Sullivan killers will be converted or repentant. The Sullivan Massacre was the first major event he encountered since he joined the police force, and it surpassed what others had seen in several years. That night was still fresh in his mind. How to express the impact? Chris met an angel who strayed into the night, and his beautiful smile was creepy. She fell asleep in his arms, as soft and light as a precious cat, but she single-handedly created a horrific tragedy. Chris held the little devil in his arms and walked through the manor, where burnt corpses were everywhere.

The body inside is also your victim? he had questioned her.

The devil smiled, brimming with joy without any haze.

How could such a monster repent? Chris's heart sank, and he secretly made up his mind to add an important item to his plan.
