Kyle's choice didn't surprise Ruby.
Ruby knew that as a clergyman, Kyle was different from most of their disciplinary nuns and guardian knights.
Since entering the Holy City Monastery, Kyle has always regarded the concept of "lover" in "lover of holy light" as the core of holy light.
To summarize, there are 5 and 500 people tied to the two tracks respectively, waiting for the Holy City Magic Train to hit them. Kyle will not pull the track splitter, but will rush directly to the magic train and stop it with himself.
But Ruby is different. She will wait for the magic train to hit some people, then get on the train to arrest the driver and purify his unclean soul with holy fire.
Ruby doesn't understand Kyle's actions, but she respects him.
After all, Kyle is the most outstanding monk in the current Holy City Monastery, so her actions outside are subject to Kyle's control.
Oh, it would be great if Kyle was replaced by Lord Alfonso!
Ruby didn't complain at all. Her plump and agile figure took quick steps and soon caught up with Kyle's pace.
The spotless black nun's uniform passed through the scorched earth and broken wood at such a speed that only a faint afterimage was left behind.

Osborne Town Center.
Mark's judgment was soon confirmed by cold reality.
The Beta Adventure Group and the three major adventure groups certainly have a small foundation in Osborne Town.
But their influence mainly covers organized adventure groups that are familiar with each other and some independent adventurers with close relationships.
When Captain Mad Wolf and others anxiously passed on the warning that "the Holy Light Purification Potion is extremely dangerous and is suspected to be under investigation by the top leaders of the Holy Light Church."
Most independent adventurers and small groups reacted with disdain, even angry hostility.
“Fake News!”
"Bullshit! I saw the black lines disappear with my own eyes!"
"Three major adventuring groups? They're just jealous of the Lisbon family's business!"
"Holy Light Church leaders? The priests in Dragon Slaying City are personally distributing the medicine, how could it be fake? I think you're just trying to hoard the stock!"
"I just crawled back from the brink of death, and you're trying to call my life-saving straw poison? Get lost!"
Questioning and abuse became the mainstream in Osborne Town.
The adventurers, who had just experienced despair and then witnessed a "miracle", had a strong resistance to any remarks that denied this "hope".
The prestige of the three major adventure groups seemed pale and powerless under the dual halo of "life-saving miracle medicine" and "endorsement of the Holy Light Church of Dragon Slaying City".
Only a few adventurers who had close ties with them or were already skeptical about the situation temporarily refrained from taking or purchasing the potion, but the impact of this was minimal.
The situation on the Beta Adventure Group's side is also not optimistic.
Jimmy and his men tried to keep an eye on the convoy of the Holy Grace Magic Potion Workshop that was selling potions outside the camp.
The convoy initially sold medicines near the temporary camp.
But not long after, the other party seemed to have received some news and headed straight towards the Youlang Valley.
Jimmy's heart was filled with alarm, and he took the risk of hanging far behind.
However, when he tracked to the outskirts of the Magic Association's temporary base not far from the entrance of the Phantom Wolf Valley, he was stopped by a team of guards who were obviously elite guards from the Dragon Slaying City.
The captain of the guards had a cold expression on his face, his hand on the hilt of his sword, and his tone was unquestionable:
"The Magic Association is investigating a key area ahead. No outsiders are allowed to approach! Leave immediately!"
Jimmy tried to explain, but the other party ignored him and even had a clear warning in his eyes.
Seeing that the convoy showed a badge, swaggered through the guard line and disappeared from sight, Jimmy could only stamp his feet in hatred and return to report.
The understaffed Beta Adventure Group was unable to complete the task required by Mark to "record the whereabouts of all adventurers who took drugs."
After the camp was unsealed, hundreds of adventurers who had used potions poured out, like drops of water merging into the sea, and spread into the streets, alleys, inns and taverns of Osborne Town.
Some people even couldn't wait to regroup and enter the outskirts of the mountains to restart their adventuring career that had been stagnant for a month.
Want to lock everyone's movements? This is almost an impossible task.
Beta could only ask Jimmy and others to pay special attention to a few adventurers who had previously had severe symptoms and were already somewhat famous in Osborne Town, but this kind of tracking was actually meaningless.
All efforts seem to be in vain, the invisible net is tightening, and most people in Osborne Town are still cheering for the emergence of the "miracle drug".
"No." Mark stood in front of the window of the Chunhui Hotel room, frowning as he looked at the pedestrians on the street who were talking about "miracle medicine" and "Father Linus" with relaxed smiles on their faces.
"We must find a stronger point of intervention, or at least... obtain an official identity to investigate. Otherwise, we won't be able to move forward."
Mark does not have Kyle's awareness as a priest, and what he does is not truly compassionate.
The adventurers themselves fell into the trap of the Enlightenment Society because of their greed, becoming pawns of the other party and accepting the fate bestowed by the other party.
There was no reason for Mark to pay for their stupidity.
The reason why he used up his favor to get Beta and the three major adventure groups involved in this matter was just to uncover more of the Qizhi Society's secrets.
If he allowed the Enlightenment Society's plan to proceed smoothly, he would not be able to get in touch with the people behind the Enlightenment Society.
Just like in the Wolf King's lair, even though he killed the Dark-Light Mutated Werewolf, he did not gain any faith value.
Therefore, he felt that chess piece-like characters like the mutated werewolf were not qualified to provide him with faith points. Perhaps only a formal member of the Enlightenment Society like Spin Campbell could bring him benefits.
With this thought in mind, he turned his gaze to the most representative Grizzly Bear Tavern in the center of Osborne Town. Perhaps only there could he find a breakthrough to solve the problem.
"Go to the guild." Mark turned around and said decisively, "Find Ellen. As the coordinator and manager of all the adventurers, the guild can't turn a blind eye to a potential large-scale crisis. Even if they don't believe there's a problem with the potion, at least... the dark magic erosion incident itself is worthy of the guild's attention."
The group left the hotel again, and the atmosphere was even more solemn than before.
The hustle and bustle on the street now sounds more like the restlessness before a storm.
The Adventurer's Guild Hall was bustling with people at this time.
The lifting of the blockade of the temporary camp of the dark magic invaders has obviously greatly stimulated the adventurers' willingness to move.
The quest board in the Adventurer's Guild Hall was crowded with people, and there was also a long line at the counter for handing over quests.
The air in the hall was filled with the smell of sweat, cheap tobacco, and a sense of excitement after surviving a disaster.
Mark didn't queue up, but went directly to Ailian's office on the second floor of the guild.
At this point, Mark no longer thinks that Ailian is just an insignificant clerk of the Adventurer's Guild.
Mark even had a hunch that perhaps Ellen understood the events that happened in Osborne Town more clearly than they did!
