Chapter 88 Changes in Mentality

After a day's rest, Joyce went to visit General Gordon at his home.

General Gordon had resumed his duties and was quite busy with official duties, so the two of them just chatted briefly in the study for a while.

Joyce learned some inside stories about Bright's departure, as well as the subsequent changes in the situation, and mentioned Admiral Amyrius.

General Gordon said with a smile on his face: "Your Excellency, the Admiral, admires you very much. He also said that he will personally receive you when you get some time!"

Thank you, please forgive me, there is no need... I am just a small role, Joyce refused wildly in her heart and said something perfunctory.

When saying goodbye, Gordon sighed happily:

"Byam, and even the entire Rhoad Islands, there will no longer be large-scale human trafficking in a short time. William's death is not meaningless."

Needless to say, this was a good thing, but it caused Joyce great discomfort.

The human trading in Rhoside has stopped, but George III’s plan to become the “Black Emperor” cannot be suspended, and he can only choose to search for people in the interior of Loen... In order to hide this fact and prevent the major churches from discovering it, this is allowed.

The "Witch Cult" created the "Backlund Smog", causing tens of thousands of casualties...

Am I that butterfly?

…………

The carriage slowly stopped, and Joyce, who was full of thoughts, stepped out of the carriage, letting the sun shine all over his body, and looked up to see the tall and solemn Church of the Waves.

This time, he did not go to see Bishop K2, but seriously followed the believers in reciting prayers until his emotions slowly calmed down.

Then, he walked into the confessional.

"If I do a good deed and save many innocent people, but it is likely to cause a greater disaster and kill more people, then is everything I do meaningful?"

The small confessional room was dark and silent.

After a long time, the priest replied in an old voice:

"In this world, good and evil are in opposition to each other. We cannot abandon good just because evil is too powerful or too cruel."

"Good is good. The ultimate goal of good is to eliminate all evil in the world. It is inevitable to pay a small price for this."

"My child, do it with confidence and boldness. One day, our Lord will use thunder to wipe out all evil. At that time, you will not regret your current choice."

Joyce thought for half a minute and then asked:

"What is the meaning of a person's existence?"

The priest answered quickly this time, as if he had answered it many times and was very proficient:

"We come naked and leave naked... we eat to fill our stomachs, sleep to rest, and come to church to listen to the Lord's teachings."

"The meaning of life lies in the present, in what you do, how you do it, and why you do it..."

When walking out of the church, Joyce held his head high and was no longer hesitant.

He got into trouble before... Even though he has not brought any changes to the world yet, he even created the original story unintentionally, as if every choice he made was destined...

But, so what?

He is still relatively weak now. As long as he can grow up quickly and become a demigod or even an angel, one day he will escape from the prison of fate.

As for time travellers, what happened to defying the sky? Although the sky in the mysterious world is more difficult to defy...

After expressing your ideals, return to reality.

During this trip to sea, Joyce has basically summed up the rules of playing the "instigator" and digested part of the magic potion.

It's a pity that we can't wait until he is fully digested before coming back. After all, Major General Bright has been away for many days, and there is no reason for him to continue missing.

In addition, he gained a lot from this trip to sea, which needs to be dealt with... As for the problem of provoking "Vice Admiral Twilight", he is not too worried. After all, only Alger and two people know the inside story, and there is no risk of leakage.

The next goal is to digest the remaining part of the "Instigator" potion as soon as possible, and at the same time, collect another main ingredient of Sequence Seven, "Agate Peacock Eggs".

Mr. Hunter attended the party at the Geranium Bar, and Sophia attended the party at the Balance. What Joyce is looking forward to is when the party at the School of Life will be held again... I'll make an appointment with Charlie tomorrow. He should have something to say.

learn.

…………

Because of a heavy burden, Mr. Hunter returned to Rose Manor yesterday. The servants at home breathed a sigh of relief. Coupled with the return of Mr. Baron, the whole villa was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Joyce threw away the burden of his thoughts and was infected by the atmosphere. He had two drinks, took a bath very early, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

…………

That night, the moonlight was dim.

When everything was quiet, a man wearing black night clothes and an oval smiling mask on his face quietly came to Stone Street.

He took out a spoon-like object and sprinkled some unknown liquid on it.

Three seconds later, the "spoon" began to shimmer and turn bronze, then slowly turned in the man's hand, and finally settled in one direction, which was No. 14 Stone Street.

The man was overjoyed. This was not his first attempt, but the previous times he had pointed to the sea and there was no way to find it... Until today, he finally saw hope.

The residents on this street are all well-known Loen people. Especially after the assassination incident a while ago, each house has strengthened its defense force.

Carefully avoiding the police and guards patrolling at night, the man finally approached his destination.

This is a valuable garden villa. Although he is not considered poor, there is basically no chance of affording it... The man cursed in his heart and crossed the wall lightly.

The security inside the villa is tighter, and the configuration is very reasonable, with basically no blind spots... After all, it is arranged by Mr. Hunter, a senior soldier and Hunter Extraordinary himself.

The man made careful calculations in his mind and found a road that was in the blind spot of the guards.

His movements are agile and light, and his whole person is like a machine.

Stepping here one step, hiding behind the goalpost the next, and even lying on the grass to avoid cross gazes...

After a silent struggle, the man passed through the layers of defense and walked into the villa.

He took out the "spoon" and followed its instructions to go outside Joyce's bedroom on the third floor without disturbing any sleeping servants.

The man took out a gold coin again, flicked it up with his thumb, and the gold coin kept flipping in the air, and finally fell back into his hand, face up.

He gently pushed the door open, and his precise control made the entire process silent.

When he walked into the bedroom, there was no one inside. The man was a little surprised, but thinking of the result of his divination, there was no danger... Moreover, he had already seen what he was looking for, which was placed on the desk by the window.

As if walking on a cat's steps, he quietly walked to the desk and picked up the ancient, seemingly broken compass. The man couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.

At this moment, a round hard object suddenly hit the back of his head. It was the cold muzzle of a gun.

At the same time, a joking voice came from behind:
