Chapter 698 - Unexpected Green Light (2/2)
But she dared not scream, fearing that she might infuriate this devil, which would deprive her of her slim chance of survival.
Roland, however, exclaimed in surprise, because he found a green circle of light above Dorothy’s head.
It was quite vague, but still green nonetheless.
“You didn’t participate in Johnson’s human organ business?” Dorothy quickly shook her head.
“What’s your relationship with Johnson?”
“Forest Fawns is covered by his gang. I receive guests in this place. If anyone particularly strong comes, I’ll deliver a message to him.” Dorothy sounded like she was almost crying. “I’ve never hurt anyone. I heard that they sold human organs, but I’ve never been involved.”
“You’ve done some good things?”
“I give some coppers to the beggars in the city now and then.”
That explained a lot… No wonder her halo was bright green. Roland heaved a sign. “Then I won’t kill you. Do you know where Johnson’s human organ store is?”
“No, I don’t.”
Roland frowned.
Seeing that, Dorothy quickly shouted, “But I know someone who does.”
“Tell me.”
“There’s a man named Jakang on the first floor. He’s responsible for collecting the protection fees as Johnson’s trusted subordinate. He must know where the human organ store is.”
Roland nodded and then gently touched Dorothy’s forehead. She immediately passed out.
It was a simple hypnosis spell.
Even an official Mage couldn’t have resisted it, not to mention Dorothy.
Roland went downstairs. The people here had no idea what happened up above and were still busy having fun.
Roland saw three men who had obviously different vibes. They seemed more brutal and eyed other people in a weirdly condescending way.
Walking to them, Roland asked, “Which of you is Jakang?” Roland had taken off his mask, but he was still wearing a Rogue’s robe. Such dress was actually quite common in the underworld.
The man in the middle, who was the slimmest and cockiest, stood out and said, “I am. Who are you?”
Roland performed an alignment test.
All of them were red.
But the other two were only brightly red, while Jakang was deeply so. He wasn’t as evil as Johnson, but still much more so than his companions.
Roland coldly snapped his fingers, and two Hands of Magic appeared and dragged the man out.
His two partners were too horrified to move.
They dared not piss off the honorable Mages.
“Who are you?” Jakang’s face turned blue because of fear. “I’ve never wronged you, sir.”
Ordinary people dared not challenge the Mages, who were even more terrifying than the nobles.
Nobody said anything when they watched Jakang to be taken away.
The guests were only here for fun. There was no need to fight with a Mage. Besides, was a gangster really worth defending?
Dropping the man next to the road, Roland said casually, “Tell me, where is Johnson’s human organ store?”
“Sir, I really can’t say, or Boss Johnson will kill me.” Johnson stood up and trembled like a rabbit.
Roland yawned and said, “It doesn’t matter. Johnson won’t do anything to you, because he’s already dead.”
Jakang was stunned for a moment, but he quickly fell on his knees and kowtowed. “Mr. Mage, I know where it is! I’ll take you there immediately!”
“Wait!” Roland suddenly thought of something. “You wait here. There’s something I need to do. I’ll be back soon.”
Roland tossed a magic spider down.
He had expanded the size of the magic spider. It was green and transparent, like a piece of glass.
The spider climbed to Jakang’s shoulder along his pants.
Jakang was even more frightened. He stared at the spider as if it were the most dreadful pest, but he dared not move at all.
Roland snapped his fingers and left with Teleportation.
Jakang stood next to the road, shivering in the cold wind like a poor bird. Many people passed by, including some of his acquaintances, but they all walked away upon seeing the fist-sized green spider on his shoulder without even daring to greet him.
Twenty minutes later, Roland returned.
At this moment, a pool of liquid could be found under Jakang’s body.
It wasn’t just his urine, but also his cold sweat.
“Okay, we can go now,” Roland said to Jakang with a smile. “Be quick about it. I’m not a patient man.”
“Yes, Mr. Mage.”
They zigzagged in the city and Roland almost lost his way, when they finally reached a highly remote place.
Inside the small forest here was a large, rickety house.
