Since the system became my girlfriend

Chapter 101 Justice Delayed

After entering the city lord's mansion, Su Rui soon met with City Lord Daril.

"Mercenary, didn't I already tell you I don't want to see you again? Why are you coming to find me again?" Lord Daryl's expression was displeased; he still harbored resentment towards Su Rui for being an evil wizard.

"Lord City Lord, I've come to deliver something to you on someone's behalf," Su Rui said, taking out the crystal.

"What is this?" Lord Daryl asked.

“This is a crystal that records a long-ago event. It was entrusted to me by the sheriff of Gold Rush Town to be given to you,” Su Rui said as he handed over the crystal.

“Okay!” Daryl took the crystal and activated it.

"Whoosh!" With a flash of light, the scene from the past reappeared, and Su Rui and Feng Lixi watched the plot again.

"This... Damn it! That despicable traitor, he deceived me! He deceived everyone!" When the video showed Sansas throwing explosives at his companion, Lord Daryl was already furious.

"Sansas! You will pay for everything you've done! The Moraka Brotherhood! I, Daryl, will remember this grudge!" Daryl put away the crystal and then shouted towards the door, "Someone come here!"

"Whoosh..." With Daryl's voice, a large group of soldiers rushed in and instantly surrounded Su Rui and Feng Lixi. Obviously, these soldiers misunderstood Daryl's meaning. They thought that Su Rui, this foolish mercenary, had angered the city lord!

"Bring me Garvin, the warlord!" Lord Daryl said to his soldiers.

"Yes, Lord!" a soldier ran out.

About ten minutes later, a high-ranking NPC wearing Overseer armor entered the hall and bowed to Lord Daryl, saying, "Lord Lord, is there something you need from me?"

"Jarvin, return to your camp immediately and assemble your troops. I am marching on Eastsea Town!" said Lord Daryl.

"Yes, Lord City Lord!" Commander Jiawen nodded, then turned and left the City Lord's Mansion.

"Mercenary, since you brought this crucial evidence, you are now the sheriff's representative. Are you willing to come with me to Eastsea Town to witness this long-awaited justice?" Lord Daryl turned to Su Rui and the other man and said.

"Ding! Mission Update: Justice Delayed!"

As Daryl spoke, Su Rui also received a system notification, and his task list was updated accordingly.

"Of course! Lord City Lord!" Su Rui certainly wouldn't give up on this task, which was almost the final link in the chain. Otherwise, wouldn't all his previous efforts have been in vain?

“Very good!” Daryl nodded, then stepped outside.

Su Rui and Feng Lixi exchanged a glance, then followed Daryl out of the hall.

When Su Rui and his group arrived at the city lord's mansion, an army had already gathered there. The army was not particularly large, with only a little over a hundred people, but the rank of these soldiers startled Su Rui.

These more than one hundred soldiers were all elite level 70 soldiers, and the commander-in-chief, Garvin, was a level 75 boss!

This lineup alone is enough to flatten Eastsea Town. After all, Sansas is just an ordinary NPC at level 20. Even if Eastsea Town has experts from the Moraka Brotherhood, it definitely doesn't need such a large force. Moreover, Lord Daryl, the level 85 boss, is going to personally lead the expedition!

This shows that Lord Daryl was truly enraged this time, and he was determined to eradicate the Brotherhood forces in Eastsea Town in one fell swoop.

"Lord of the city, when shall we depart?" Commander Jiawen stepped forward and asked.

“Now!” Daryl said.

"Yes, Lord City Lord!" Commander Jarvan nodded, then waved his hand to give the order to depart.

A group of over a hundred people lined up in an orderly queue and left Xuanwu City through the east gate, heading straight for the dock. This time, Su Rui and Feng Lixi no longer had to worry about the monsters on both sides of the road. Although those level 40 monsters were extremely deadly to them, they were nothing more than easy targets for these elite soldiers who were over level 70.

With such a large army protecting them, Su Rui and his companion naturally had a smooth journey and soon arrived near the dock.

"Who is in charge here?" Governor Garvin shouted.

"It's me! It's me! Commander, is there something important you need here?" The dock manager from before appeared, his face beaming with delight as he faced Commander Jarvan.

"Prepare a ship for us!" said Governor Garvin.

"Yes! I'll prepare it for you right away. Where are you going, Commander?" the dock manager asked tentatively.

“This is not your concern!” Governor Garvin glared at the dock manager.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! I was too talkative..." The dock manager shrank back and obediently went to make the arrangements. A few minutes later, a large ship was ready to go.

"My lord, we can set off now, I..." The dock manager was smiling as he spoke to Governor Jiawen, but at that moment, he suddenly glanced at Su Rui and Feng Lixi.

In an instant, the dock manager's face turned pale, he began to stammer, and his whole body even trembled slightly.

The dock manager was terrified. Just a short while ago, these two mercenaries had come to his place, and at that time, they were carrying Brotherhood guide letters, so they knew that the dock manager had connections with the Brotherhood.

Now these two men have reappeared in the Xuanwu City army. Whether they confessed about Donghai Town after being captured, or they are simply spies for Xuanwu City, it means that the Brotherhood's influence in Donghai Town has been exposed! And he himself has been exposed!

The attitude of Xuanwu City and even the entire Federation towards the members of the Moraka Brotherhood is consistent: no interrogation is required, and the members of the Brotherhood can be publicly hanged on the city walls!

The thought of being hanged made the dock manager tremble like a leaf.

"What's wrong with you?" Jarvan frowned.

"I..." The dock manager glanced at Su Rui, who was nodding and smiling at him.

"Could they be Brotherhood spies who have infiltrated Xuanwu City?" Another thought suddenly occurred to the dock manager. If that were the case, then his life would be safe.

Once the crisis was resolved, the dock manager immediately felt relieved.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. My old chest pain has flared up again. A little medicine will do the trick!" As he spoke, the dock manager actually pulled out a few pills from his person and swallowed them.
