"Put Keisha's matter aside for now. If she doesn't make a move, I shouldn't alert her."

"My strength is still too weak. I need to get Lin Qi to advance to Second Tier Transcendent as soon as possible."

There was another troublesome point.

Originally, Ryan had planned to kill Adler first, then find an opportunity to get rid of Keisha, clearing his name completely. But now that Keisha was an infiltrator with unknown strength, he had no idea how likely he was to succeed in killing her.

Then again, Keisha was an infiltrator, but she was currently working for him. If Adler died, then on the surface, Keisha would become his subordinate.

Besides, not many people should know about Keisha's identity, so information about him should still be confidential... Mm, it had to be.

"Let's see whether Shally can add another character after changing classes. If she can, I'll have an Alt test things out."

It didn't matter if a level-one Alt died.

As long as he could probe Keisha's true capabilities, however many deaths it took would be worth it.

Over the next three days, Ryan searched for Casola Prison while having 'Shally' explore the dungeon.

'Lin Qi' relayed Caslathdi's plan to High Priestess Liya, then continued waiting for Caslathdi to act. With nothing else to do, she focused on grinding levels.

After becoming a priest, 'Lin Qi' was no longer as busy every day.

She left the management of the Church to the Priest. She only needed to show her face each day.

In her spare time, 'Lin Qi' went to Berman University's old campus to hunt evil spirits. Surprisingly, the evil spirits spawning there were as high as level 20, and she occasionally encountered elite monsters. In two days, 'Lin Qi' successfully reached level 19 and was now pushing toward level 20.

Not only that, she had also obtained a copy of Swift.

Ryan directly gave the skill to 'Shally' to learn.

However, her high-frequency leveling accidentally landed 'Lin Qi' on Berman University's trending list. The recent Blood God Cult incident had prompted a group of bold students to explore the old campus, and they happened to run into 'Lin Qi' while she was grinding monsters.

Late at night, in an abandoned building, an unknown battle.

The sight of 'Lin Qi' wielding a Dagger amid flashing blades was terrifying enough. Those who witnessed it described 'Lin Qi' as a vengeful spirit wandering the old campus, earning her the title of Killer Ghost.

Fortunately, 'Lin Qi' had a habit of concealing her appearance while leveling, and it had been nighttime. Ryan wasn't worried about anyone seeing her... Mm, though no one had really dared to get that close anyway.

"It should be somewhere in this area."

Inside the office.

Based on his memories, Ryan marked two locations for Casola Prison within the city.

'Shally' had extracted information from a member of the Blood Cult and confirmed that her location was within the city. However, there were two possible sites, and because so much time had passed, the map information Keisha had shown him no longer matched the present day.

The prison site in the West District had now been turned into a commercial street. Although the underground space remained unaffected, the constant flow of people made it unlikely that the Blood Cult would choose that place.

The prison in the East District, on the other hand, was located in a slum. The conditions were just right.

After preliminary investigations over the past two days, he had basically narrowed down the approximate location.

But before he could act, Jonathan suddenly came looking for him.

Three days of lying low seemed to have stabilized Berman City's situation, but as long as Caslathdi remained, it was destined not to stay peaceful.

This time, Caslathdi had already made her preparations. She needed the Burning Covenant's cooperation to launch an assassination plan against Adler.

The moment Ryan heard that, he knew the glorious day of killing Adler and clearing his name had finally arrived!
