Charles smiled palely, his head felt dizzy and he almost fell to the ground.

Adele supported her and had her taken to bed to rest.

She asked those around her, "Beth, how do you feel?"

Beth swallowed and said, "That's too cruel."

This simple man had never been involved in a tragedy. In his mind, killing should be a quick and direct thing, but he didn't expect the process to be so long.

Adele recalled the murky colors she saw last night, and her stomach churned again. She forced herself to say, "Fortunately, he's harmed more than one or two people over the years. Even if we kill him, the dead won't come back. Since he deserves to die, we must make sure his death is worthwhile. Is the venue set up? It's time to call for help."

“A rally can be called at any time.”

It was before dawn, the stars were sparse, the moon sank into the mountain's skirt, and the swirling cold wind and guests knocked on some people's doors.

Come with me.

The soft invitation was drowned out by the sound of the wind, but the residents, who had either lost part of their limbs, were lonely and helpless, or had nothing, heard the invitation. With bright eyes, they followed the inviter silently into a square.

The square was simple but wide enough to accommodate the invited guests.

Depressed gazes converged in the square, like dark clouds, and finally fell on a temporary platform built in the center of the square, where a person seemed to be kneeling.

When the crowd gathered, it was just dawn.

It was time for the residents of Community No. 7 to get up. Someone opened the door and saw the crowd gathered in the square, so he rushed over to watch the fun.

More and more people came, and the breathing of the first arrivals became heavier.

Soon, the square was crowded with people watching the excitement and the noise was noisy.

Adele and her companions walked up to the stage. She gazed at the people below and took a deep breath to calm herself.

"My friends, we are the United for the Devoted, a vigilante group formed to protect our community from the growing prevalence of gangs."

Under the gaze of the crowd, her voice was passionate and powerful: "I believe you have heard of us and think that we are just another Kaza Brotherhood or Lango Society. I can't prove to you now that we are not them, but we will use time to prove to you that we are definitely not them!"

"We will protect you, sweep away the shadows that have lingered over our community, and sever the enemy's greedy tentacles from outside our community. We will unite as one, ensuring that the enemy can no longer harm you."

"Last night, we captured a traitor, a traitor who betrayed his fellow citizens. He had flattered the enemy, telling them where the resistance fighters were, framing righteous men! He forced his fellow citizens to lend money at high interest rates, forcing them to pledge their flesh and blood as collateral. If they lost their lives, he would cut off a piece of their flesh to pay off the debt! He raised a group of thugs to bully the villagers, smash up shops, and cause trouble to the area! We caught him, he's right here, on this high platform."

Adele pointed her finger at Shylock, letting people see what a miser he was. His lips were blocked and he could only glare at the people in the audience, the people he looked down upon.

It would be a trial, a lynching.

Adele invited those who were hurt by him to come on stage and tell them about their painful past and Shylock's oppression.

They exposed their wounds and angrily told everyone about Sherlock's dark heart and evil habits.

Only a few people went on stage, and more people carefully protected their missing limbs and did not let them show.

But the accusations and condemnations of just a small number of people are enough to arouse the anger of the people.

The crowd is furious!

Calls for Shylock's execution were made sporadically, but once they were made, they spread like wildfire, uncontrollably and spread to the entire square in an instant.

Beth took off Sherlock's gag and wanted him to say something.

He cursed, cursing the people in the audience, cursing Adele, and his resentful eyes seemed to want to eat Adele alive.

Adele didn't care what he thought.

With a wave of her hand, she ordered the members of the Federation to erect the gallows and tie the once arrogant loan shark to it.

Adele walked off the stage and let Milin speak in her place to continue to mobilize the residents' emotions.

"Very good. Who are you going to kill next?"

A voice filled with complex emotions came from the side, calling Adele.

Charles handed Adele a thick envelope of money.

"This is a large-denomination bill from the Holy Empire, redeemable one-to-one with gold coins at the Rock Bank," she said. "This is the promised reward."

Adele replied: "I won't do it for now."

"Backing off will only invite retaliation."

"He's the only one in the community who's hated and has enough size to be a target. The rest don't need to be arrested in a big way; they can be dealt with privately."

"Oh, that's right. If you need anything, you can send me a letter and I will help you."

Charles's eyes dimmed. Anthony still had a lot of property left to her. It would be great if she could make the Pious Union stronger and kill a few more enemies.

Chapter 72 Noita's Little Notebook

A trial was held in the cold hours, satisfying many desires and bringing a life to an end. Lady Charles becomes your patron, providing financial support and various assistance to the Pious Union.

The sudden news in the diary made Noita stunned. While listening to Ice Dragonfly counting on her fingers to talk about the Snowfield Encyclopedia, she checked what Adele had done during the journey.

Soon, she understood what had happened and closed the log with relief.

Adele is also working hard and not slacking off.

The Ice Dragonfly saw the smile on Noita's lips and pointed out a layer of ice covered by thin ice, asking her to concentrate.

The closer you get to the snow-capped mountains, the more complex the geological structure of the snowfield becomes, and the number of natural traps and magical dangers increases.

One wrong step could mean the difference between life and death.

After running non-stop for six hours, they arrived at Silver Peak.

This sacred mountain is so magnificent that it is unimaginable. It is bright and shining, and its height is boundless. Half of the mountainside is blocked by snow and clouds, making it impossible to see the peak.

There was no snow at the foot of Silver Peak Mountain, only a thick layer of ice. Noita touched the ground with his fingertips to explore, but found that he could not detect the end of the ice layer.

It is as thick as the earth.

Noita stepped onto the ice, and the vibration of his feet hitting the ground was transmitted deep into the ice, like a signal, causing the creatures in the ice to wake up immediately.

"We're here, put me down."

Ice Dragonfly pushed Noita aside and nimbly stood on the slippery ice. She raised her head slightly and looked towards the mountain: "Are you going to explore it?"

"Since we're here, it would be a shame not to climb up. Besides, I don't know where the entrance to the nest is if I want to turn back. It's better to climb the mountain. At least it's a landmark."

"it is good."

Ice Dragonfly calmly agreed and walked towards Silver Peak side by side with Noita.

When they reached the middle of the ice, they suddenly saw a winding white stone staircase embedded in the ice and snow, winding upwards and leading straight to the clouds beyond the reach of sight.

It is obviously a man-made fortification.

Noita once thought of the mountain ancestors and shaman spirits described in the log. Could they really be in this nest?

If so, the Silver Peak Lair might not be a regular lair, but a semi-secret place.

When Noita's thoughts were wandering elsewhere, suddenly, a black shadow flashed from under the ice, as fast as a swordfish.

This made both of them alert and stand still.

They all leaned their backs against each other and moved towards Silver Peak in tacit understanding.

The shadow swam past them again and stopped at their feet, continuing to expand.

The black shadow under his feet quickly expanded to the size of a warship and showed signs of continuing to expand.

A few ice spikes first emerged from the water, and extremely cold air seeped out from the ice. Something so huge that it was frightening was poking out of the water.

Ice Dragonfly pulled Noita and ran towards Silver Peak for their lives. They easily broke out of the coverage of the shadow and kept a distance from them.

Behind him, a black shadow emerged completely from the water. It was an extremely tall ice elemental, a little bigger than the one the snow elf team had hunted before, almost as big as a seven-story building.

Ice elementals can move freely through nonmagical ice and snow like a fish through water.

Silver Peak is sacred and inviolable. Shamans created ice elementals and nurtured them within the icy lake, tasking them with guarding the sacred mountain. Any who attempt to ascend must face the guardian spirits and defeat them in battle to gain the right to climb.

A shadow appeared under their feet, and like the ice element in the distance, it slowly rose.

This is like their appearance cg, it must be like this.

Ice Dragonfly's eyes flashed, and he grabbed Noita's arm and pulled her, then he threw Noita to Silver Peak like a windmill on the spot.

Then she continued to charge forward without even looking.

When Noita was about to fall to the Silver Peak, he was suddenly supported by a gentle force.

"Cheating is bad behavior."

The soft voice penetrated Noita's ears, like teasing the sensitive part of her ears with grass, making her cheeks red.

Noita controlled the blood flow, restored his complexion to normal, and quickly searched for the source of the sound.

However, everything was normal at Yinfeng and she gained nothing.

That force put Noita back into the ice.

Yinfeng rejected her.

After reading the log, Noita understood how to enter Silver Peak. She said to the charging Ice Dragonfly, "We must destroy these ice elements before we can reach the Holy Mountain."

The ice dragonfly paused, made a big turn, and stopped in the distance.

She turned to look at the ice element, her eyebrows furrowed, and without hesitation, she activated the magic power that had been accumulated for some time.

Sharp lightning gathered again, slicing through the air with a frightening edge. The lightning materialized, captured in Ice Dragonfly's hand. She took a deep breath, drawing the chill into her lungs, using the chill that could sever blood vessels to counteract the pain of the wounds disintegrating.

She grasped the violent lightning with divine power, took aim, bent down, and threw the thunder.

Then, the power of thunder burst out from the cold sky and irresistibly sank into the chest of the ice element closest to her.

Such a huge ice element can move the position of its core in the body at will, but when the lightning penetrates the ice body, no matter how the core is moved, it cannot be saved, because the power of thunder fills its body, spreads out in one thousandth of a second, and disintegrates it.

A dazzling light bloomed in the ice element's chest, and in the brilliant light, the ice element disintegrated silently.

The only thing left on the spot was a water curtain ice sculpture that evaporated and then quickly solidified.

Another bolt of lightning appeared from Ice Dragonfly's hand, but before it could take shape, she coughed up a pool of blood and the lightning dissipated.

"If you hit me again, you'll die." Noita slid to her side.

"No, ahem, it's okay." She stuttered, "I still have a lot of life left. At most, I will be unable to move for a while."

"But I don't want to hug you anymore."

Noita held her hand down and said helplessly, "Why would you want to self-destruct with the other party just because of a disagreement? What I can deal with it, no matter how big it is, is just an ice element."

"You are my employer," Ice Dragonfly said with difficulty, "I will get you out of the nest safely."

Ice Dragonfly's meaning was a little confusing, but Noita still understood what she wanted to say.

It's just that I feel that she can't be allowed to do it.

I don't know what she is insisting on.

Noita thought for a moment and stretched out his palm: "Come, look at what I have in my hand?"

The ice dragonfly peeked out and found nothing.

Facing the doubtful gaze of Ice Dragonfly, Noita smiled and covered his face with his hands: "Go."

The powerful sedative that had just been prepared was unexpectedly inhaled into the lungs of Ice Dragonfly. It took effect very quickly, affecting Ice Dragonfly's nerves almost the next second after being inhaled, causing her to sit down softly, looking at the beautiful snowfield, ice layer and the girl in front of her.

"Take a break, my friend."

The experience cannot be snatched away by her alone.

The experience of missing out on a super giant ice element made Noita want to pound the ground in pain. He absolutely couldn't let this one go.

Only when facing the ice element did Noita realize how huge it was. It just stood in front of Noita, but it blocked the light. He needed to look up seventy degrees to see the sky. Frost air, which was more than ten degrees lower than the ambient temperature, wrapped around it and spread to ten meters away as it moved.

This magically powered freezing air can even freeze snow elves.

Its massive mass brings unmatched power, and a head-on confrontation with it is a sure death.

If a warrior were to fight it, it would be quite difficult. If he wasn't careful, he would be beaten into ketchup by its tremendous force.

Fortunately, Noita was a psychic. Her eyes lit up slightly, and the ice layer rose. A huge snake rushed out of the ice layer, rushed towards the ice element, entangled it, and wrestled with it.

The water phase among the four phases.

I never have the opportunity to use it normally, but in this snowy environment, this is the most useful skill.

There are no upgrade options for the psionic arts gained upon awakening psionic powers. This does not mean that they cannot become stronger, but rather that their strength is only related to the user's imagination and the quality of their psionic powers.
