Looking at the Moon Apostle inside the iron cage, Su Xiao frowned. Everything had already been set up, and he had only been waiting for Morey to arrive so he could arrange everything for her. Instead, something unexpected had happened.
He unlocked the iron cage and tossed a church knight's helmet bucket inside. It hit the floor with a clang.
The Moon Apostle sighed, put on the church knight's helmet bucket herself, and still did not stand up.
"This time, without 18,000 soul coins, I'm not an ATM! I only have 4,000 left. I really don't have a single drop more. You've wrung me dry."
"..."
Su Xiao said nothing. In truth, he was a little surprised that the Moon Apostle still had 4,000 soul coins left. He had asked for too little last time.
Notification: You obtained 4,000 soul coins.
As the notification appeared, Su Xiao's assets rose sharply. He checked his current soul coins: 43,080!
This was an enormous sum. In the past, even if Su Xiao had slaughtered his way through an entire world, he would never have been able to obtain this many soul coins. On top of that, this windfall had come with virtually no risk.
Su Xiao turned and walked toward the cathedral, with the Moon Apostle following behind. She was already somewhat familiar with this route.
Half an hour later, on the wilderness before the cathedral, the Moon Apostle was released once again. Before she had gone far, Bubu Wang said:
"Don't get caught again this time. We have principles in this line of work too. As the saying goes, it shouldn't happen three times."
"I-I won't get caught!"
The Moon Apostle was both angry and embarrassed. Being caught for the second time, her dignity mattered more than the loss of her property.
