Three days.
Kieran and Teresa stayed in the Dandon Church for three days. Other than the necessary food, they even compressed their rest to a minimum.
Though, Teresa got nothing.
"Are you sure these books are all you have?"
Teresa raised her head after finishing the last book and asked Kieran with a tired face.
"Mm."
Kieran nodded and rubbed his swollen temple.
He wasn't pretending, he started to read the books after he got some results.
Kieran wouldn't be careless since it was related to his future plans.
"Teresa, you should take a good rest. Even if you want to get more results, you need an energetic body!"
Kieran quickly reminded Teresa when he saw that she was about to go back to reading the books again.
After some hesitation, Teresa chose to listen to Kieran's suggestion.
Of course, such rest wasn't possible in the Dandon Church.
Both of them bade farewell to Sister Dandon and walked out side by side.
"Where are you going?"
"I'll give you a lift."
Teresa casually asked after she opened her car door.
"You will never go there."
Kieran appropriately showed a bitter smile.
"Be careful, you might become the Black Widow's next prey!"
Teresa furrowed her brows and snorted softly.
"You don't think that person will help me for free right?"
Kieran laid his hands open.
Teresa didn't say anything else but stared at Kieran. When that gaze appeared in her eyes, it made Kieran's heart feel weird and creepy.
Fortunately, Teresa quickly retracted her gaze.
She grunted again and didn't even say a word. All she did was wave at Kieran and drove off.
After seeing Teresa's car off, Kieran hailed a taxi and went back to Augen Manor.
…
The moment they entered the manor, the taxi was naturally asked to leave and changed into a car driven by Anne Aldrich Augen's secretary.
Of course, the most surprising thing was the mayor of Edland City, Anne Aldrich Augen was also in the car.
"Should I be honored to be greeted by a mayor?"
Kieran said with a smile as he looked at Anne Aldrich Augen who was dressed in formal attire.
"In that case, you should tell me everything you've gained as a sign of gratitude."
Anne Aldrich Augen leaned against the seat opposite him and looked at Kieran with a smile. Her long and fair legs were crossed, attracting everyone's attention.
"Nothing."
Kieran, who was already used to it, wasn't affected at all. He shook his head and said seriously, "Although I successfully found Harodet and found a lot of interesting things on him, I didn't find anything in the books that he didn't hesitate to kill for."
"Are you sure the books you saw are everything?"
"You returned to Dandon Church's base ahead of time and the books were sent here later."
Anne Aldrich Augen asked.
"Teresa asked the same question as you did, but I'm sure what I saw was everything!"
Kieran wasn't surprised that Anne Aldrich Augen knew all these.
Before she became the mayor of Edland City, Anne Aldrich Augen had eyes and ears everywhere in Edland City and after she became the mayor, nothing in Edland City could escape her eyes. Even when Dandon Church asked Anne Aldrich Augen to help clean up the streets, Kieran wasn't surprised at all.
"Sister Liz Dandon is trustworthy, as for the others?"
Anne Aldrich Augen laughed coldly and seemed to be very disdainful.
Kieran frowned cooperatively when he saw Anne Aldrich Augen's reaction.
However, he didn't say anything.
The effect he wanted had been achieved.
If he said anything more, the smart lady before him would notice something was wrong.
Might as well act like she was in deep thought.
"Dandon Church isn't a monolithic organization either. Don't forget, it is just one of the Holy Relic Society, not all of them! The incident that happened three days ago and Harodet's unusual behavior might have spread throughout the entire Holy Relic Society! "
"Do you know?
Two days ago, some people who caught people's attention appeared in Edland City.
"They were all attracted by Harondentte's' research '!"
"A bunch of greedy bastards!"
Anne Aldrich Augen said with a sneer.
However, Kieran could tell the mayor wasn't just dissatisfied with those unstable factors that came to Edland City, it was also because those people's appearance hindered her search plan.
The Fountain of Immortality, the place where Gods fell, the fruit of Yggdrich World Tree, all sorts of mythical items, as long as they were real, who wouldn't be moved?
If it wasn't Kieran who created all of this, he might be attracted as well.
That's right!
All of this was part of Kieran's plan as well.
From the moment he left Yuda State University and confirmed that Harodet was the heart transplant, Kieran already had such a plan in his mind.
With Harodet's actions that struck deep into people's hearts, it made Kieran's arrangements very simple. All he needed was a little guidance and everything would fall into place naturally.
After a month of fermenting and the battle three days ago, Dandon Church, the Holy Relic Society behind it, the Elder Council, and the mystics who heard the news, all of their attention would be focused on Edland City.
Among them would be a certain organization that had arbiters and enforcers in their ranks.
The organization would no doubt display some sort of difference.
Only they knew the reason for the changes in Harodet.
Because of that, they would be doubtful and anxious but they would never give up on the investigation.
It wasn't just to erase the traitor Kieran, it was also because of the attraction of the mythical items.
Of course, they would cover themselves up.
However, compared to those who only targeted the mythical items, it was still different. It was like a white fish snuck into a school of black fish, no matter how hard they tried to cover themselves, it would still be obvious.
It was what Kieran wanted.
He wanted to know which organization he belonged to.
Only then he could take specific measures and not passively wait for the time to run out.
As for why?
Other than the fact that he didn't like to be passive, it was for the sake of better talents.
Judging from the rules, Kieran was quite confident that ending the dungeon earlier would have a positive effect on the activation of his talents.
After experiencing being a step ahead, how could Kieran let go of such a chance?
One needed to know that not only was his door blocked by the curse, there was also a great enemy like Broker hiding somewhere, plotting something unknown.
If he didn't quickly grow stronger, then he would really be on the road to death.
Thoughts were spinning rapidly in his heart but Kieran didn't show any slack on his face.
He looked at Anne Aldrich Augen who was still showing an indignant expression and asked directly, "Those greedy bastards aren't the reason why you, the mayor, are here to welcome me. Now, I'm afraid you want the situation to be more chaotic so you can fish in troubled waters, right?"
"Are we telepathic?"
Anne Aldrich Augen winked at Kieran and turned around to sit beside Kieran, saying with a begging tone, "Utah's governor wants to attend my inauguration dinner! That governor is famous for his seriousness … A weak girl like me really needs a reliable and powerful dance partner beside me to feel at ease. "
Utah's governor?
Kieran squinted his eyes.
With Anne Aldrich Augen, the candidate beside him, even though Kieran didn't understand the election rules before, he knew a thing or two about it now.
Based on what he knew, in this current dungeon world, no governor would attend the mayor's inauguration dinner, unless both parties had a special relationship.
Anne Aldrich Augen, of course, had nothing to do with the governor.
Besides, the timing …
With doubts in his heart, Kieran asked straightforwardly.
"How soon will the governor notify you?"
Don't tell me it was after my battle with Harodet three days ago! "
Anne Aldrich Augen didn't answer, she looked at Kieran and smiled charmingly.
The answer was obvious.
