Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Mayor Ross (First update, subscribe!)
After taking the Spirit Communication Secret Medicine, Tang Qi and two others gained the temporary ability to interact with souls.
Even without the medicine, Tang Qi could see Ronald in his chaotic Resentful Soul state and use him as fuel to burn.
However, now was not the time.
Tang Qi watched as Ronald’s Soul, like a twisted black snake, lunged at the trio. Narrowing his eyes slightly, he suddenly stepped forward, shielding the two behind him. A faint golden light flickered in his eyes, causing Ronald’s Resentful Soul to suffer even more intense pain.
“Ah~” In a scream, Ronald voluntarily retracted into the Flesh Tree.
But this could not keep Tang Qi from approaching. Amid his howls, his chaotic, twisted eyes suddenly met a pair of eyes gleaming with a faint golden light.
“Mr. Ronald, you need to calm down. Do you remember my voice? I am Tang Qi.”
“I am now a Special Advisor at Messer Police Station. I believe you need our help.”
With a voice carrying a special rhythm, Ronald slowly broke free from his chaotic state.
The crimson spreading across his body slowly receded.
His eyes cleared once again.
Yet, he quickly realized his predicament. His face, already sallow, turned utterly pale, and he was nearly overwhelmed by a tide of pain as he constantly resisted the corrupting force.
With an extremely sorrowful and angry gaze, he glanced at the Flesh Tree behind and beneath him, a wicked creation made entirely by his family.
The retrieved Ronald was once again that astute and wise figure, though pain kept surging, he strived to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor.
He glanced at Tang Qi. If he were still alive, he might be curious about how Tang Qi had become a consultant to the police station.
But now, he simply said, “Time is running out. What do you want to know?”
“Who did this?”

Tang Qi did not waste time and directly asked.
Hearing the question, Ronald glanced again at the chief and Stanna, his gaze lingering on the Red Rhino for a half second longer, then returned to Tang Qi and first displayed an unmistakably mocking smile.
Then unexpectedly, he immediately revealed the perpetrator to them without any reservations.
“Gary Ross”
“Is it really the mayor?”
Stanna could not help but exclaim in surprise.
Although the female chief had previously mentioned it, hearing it confirmed from Ronald’s mouth still evoked surprise in Stanna.
Her reaction seemed entirely anticipated by Ronald.
On Ronald’s ashen face was a thick layer of scorn, as he silently laughed and then said, “The foolish citizens of Messer City, thinking that by electing a civilian lawyer as mayor, they could protect their interests?”
“Unfortunately, they will never know how disgusting and perverted their beloved mayor is in private. If the grand era had not returned, he would just be a perverted beast, tormenting young girls and killing a few travelers without causing more harm. Unfortunately…”
“Hiss~”
Although it was speech from an opposing camp, given Ronald’s state at the time, he likely wasn’t lying.
Each of his statements was practically an earth-shattering revelation.
Mayor Ross!
The overt ruler of Messer City today, considered by many civilians as the sole hope for Messer City’s revival.
Outwardly, he appears as a congenial and capable mayor.
However, as described by Ronald, he is downright a pervert.
And what he refers to as the “great era” should be the changes brought about by the return of the Spiritual Tide.
“Originally, that beast Ross was merely our dog, his becoming the mayor was something we condoned, something we all condoned together, and also the Hastu Club he established—you all can guess, what was the primary purpose of this club at the beginning?”
It seemed Ronald knew his time was short, so he did not play coy and directly unveiled the mystery.
He laughed eerily, saying, “It was a place specifically catering to perverts, with a very strict membership system, only those who genuinely delight in slaughter and are completely psychologically twisted can become members of the club, he even expelled someone from our family when they hesitated for a few seconds while slaughtering a young girl.”
“Slaughtering beautiful flesh is his lifelong pursuit, for which he even dared to offend our major families.”
“And when he obtained a Curio from a traveler’s backpack, he completely lost control. We major families could no longer control him, and the Hastu Club turned into a place like hell, and we all know that twisted beast also obtained great power, stronger than anything our ancestors have left behind.”
“The only families that could contend with his dogs were the Mellon Family.”
“For this, we once again condoned sharing the dominion over Messer City with him, until I made a small mistake, hahaha…”
“It’s not only the civilians who are foolish, but also me, the rest of the families, and those fools of the Mellon Family, they were wrong, all wrong, that beast wasn’t just satisfying his own desires, he was doing it to bring It down.”
“It?”
Suddenly, Tang Qi spoke, a very inauspicious omen suddenly surged.
Whoosh!
Ronald’s Resentful Soul suddenly elongated and appeared before Tang Qi, roaring, “Yes, It, a deity from beyond our realm, one that is ten thousand times, no, a billion times more twisted and perverted than Ross, no, It is the embodiment of twisting and perversion.”
“But no matter, I’ve already learned Its name, which I obtained in exchange for my ancestors’ legacy and all my own strength, as long as I tell you, and you inform the Bright Church, all disasters will be resolved.”
“Come close, let me whisper Its name in your ear.”
In a murmuring voice, Ronald’s tone grew softer and more eerie, his specter body twisted and elongated, seemingly turning snake-like, drawing close to Tang Qi’s ear, to tell him the mysterious name alone.
And Tang Qi seemed to be frozen, allowing him to come closer.
Under the shadow, the middle-aged gentlemanly appearance of Ronald completely disappeared, replaced by a tightly drawn chaos, two black slits at the corners of his mouth opening, he was about to open his mouth, perhaps to speak out the name, or… to swallow Tang Qi whole?
“Sshhla~”
Very abruptly, Ronald opened his mouth, a pale face, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth and saliva, and a pitch-black throat, nowhere resembling a Resentful Soul at all.
Just as it was about to succeed, suddenly a different sound came.
Bang!
In his lifetime, Ronald was very familiar with this sound.
He remembered, he had a Golden Hand Cannon, every time he used it to punish traitors and disobedient subordinates, it would make this sound.
But am I not human now?
Puzzled, Ronald thought, the pitch-black mouth came down for a moment, the eyes that were covered now refocused on the scene.
The first vision that struck him was a burst of firelight that seemed to shatter everything.
