Liu Jiayi captured this key word: "Witch's Heart?"

"Don't listen to what Paula said." The witch next to him advised earnestly, "This is just a legendary item. It is said that it can destroy all the protections of the Church against us, but we don't know if it exists. No one has ever seen this thing. We won't put our hopes on it!"

"But I believe that the Witch's Heart that can overcome everything must exist." Jeon Bora's eyes were determined. She smiled and said as if jokingly, "I am honored as the First Witch by those people in the Vatican. What if the Witch's Heart is in me?"

The witch looked at Jeon Bora with a warning: "Bora!"

Jeon Bora raised her hands in surrender and whispered, "Okay, okay, I know you don't like it, so I won't say it anymore."

At the same time, Liu Jiayi looked at the refreshed system panel:

[System prompt: Congratulations to player Liu Jiayi for obtaining key information - if you obtain (Witch's Heart).]

[Only when a witch dies, her soul will leave her body and the condensed heart can be called the "Witch's Heart", which can break the protection of all members of the Church.]

Liu Jiayi narrowed her eyes - this means...

Doesn't that mean they have to kill the witch in order to win the other person's heart?

"Paula!" Youzhen's voice came from far away, somewhat excited, "We are back!"

Jeon Bora turned around and confirmed with her eyes that everyone had returned before she smiled: "It seems that everyone has shown their skills this time."

"Of course!" Youzhen smiled proudly, her eyes sparkling, "We brought back all the witches who were tried this time! Not a single one was left out!"

Jeon Bora looked at Leah next to her and said, "What about the family members? Did you bring them back?"

Leah and Youzhen were both strangely silent. Although they had rescued those men before, they basically never brought them to the witch area. They basically ran away after rescuing them. However, Paula would ask every time.

Seeing their expressions, Jeon Bora was helpless and at a loss for words. She sighed and said, "You guys threw me out of the courtroom again?"

"I'll go and bring them back to the witch sanctuary. They are also victims of the Church. There's no need to vent your anger on them." Quan Baola paused. "Many of them are still children, only a few years old. You shouldn't do this."

Many of the men on trial were "sons of witches". Their mothers were tried and declared witches by the Vatican and then executed or defected, and they were the next to be tried. These children were basically no more than fifteen years old.

Youzhen quietly defended herself: "...We usually bring children back."

They all knew how Paula was judged. Paula's children are still treated as "witch's children" and imprisoned on the Sky Island to be... the queen of that group of people.

So no matter how much Yuzhen disliked men, when she saw these young "witch children" being judged, she couldn't help but think of the baby who was slandered by the priest for having a "witch's heart" and was judged, and she rescued them and brought them back.

——Because if they are not brought back, no one knows whether these children will be taken to the Castle in the Sky because of their beautiful appearance or other reasons.

"But why not this time?" Jeon Bora asked softly.

Youzhen paused for a moment, she and Leah looked at each other, took a deep breath, and then said, "Because a strange organization took them in, I think they are a more suitable place to accommodate men who have been interrogated."

"A strange organization?" Jeon Bora frowned slightly, "What organization?"

Liya and Youzhen told Jeon Bora everything. Jeon Bora realized something almost instantly. She turned her head to look at Liu Jiayi behind her, who had a wandering look in her eyes. She said with a smile: "Is this the foreign male you mentioned who can be used as another entry point?"

Liu Jiayi resisted the urge to cover her face and hummed with difficulty.

…It’s embarrassing to admit that I know such a group of strange men.

"You know these men?!" Youzhen looked at Liu Jiayi in astonishment. She quickly reacted and asked incredulously, "Could you be the witch who healed him and is willing to kill gods for you?!"

Liu Jiayi pursed her lips and nodded: "If he doesn't know other witches, then he should be talking about me."

Youzhen shook her head awkwardly: "Hey, is this someone you know? Why didn't you tell me earlier..."

She had always been against them, but in the end she just left the men to them and murdered them.

"No need." Liu Jiayi raised her head and said calmly, "If they can't even get along with you peacefully and can't do a good job of assisting witches, there's no need for you to treat them well for my sake."

"If they can't even show this little bit of sincerity, they don't deserve your kindness."

Yoo Jin was stunned for a moment, and Jeon Bora's eyes moved when she looked at Liu Jiayi, and then she smiled sincerely. She turned to look at Jiayi, stretched out her hand and said in a cooperative manner: "Can I meet them?"

Liu Jiayi stretched out her hand and shook it with Jeon Bora modestly: "If you wish, they are always at your service."

Jeon Bora blinked and smiled: "Then I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

Liu Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief in her heart - they were finally willing to meet Bai Liu and the others.

When she proposed it before, Jeon Bora said she would consider it, but it was obviously an option that was considered very late - this witch leader who seemed gentle and easy to get along with was actually meticulous and vigilant. She had a very clear mind and would never easily allow men to enter the witch district before properly handling the relationship between this group of convicted men and the witches.

This also means that she will not simply accept a group of foreign men of unknown origin to help her.

But now, Yu Zhen's attitude made Jeon Bora reconsider this matter - as a third-party organization outside the witch district, this group of people is also capable of protecting young victims such as the judged witch's son, better placing other men in the safe zone, training them to have self-defense capabilities, and at the same time, they can also serve as an auxiliary to help them clean up the teammates of the Tribunal. And because they are only in a supporting position, when the witches attack, even if this team turns against them, it will not cause serious harm to the witches.

This perfectly solves all current problems, and it has been implemented once and seems to be working quite well - this was also the strategy she formulated at the beginning.

But she also prepared for the possibility that the tactic would not work, because she was not sure how Bai Liu and the witch team would cooperate and whether they could successfully impress the other party.

Liu Jiayi looked at Jeon Bora's back as she turned around to continue the discussion, and couldn't help but curl her lips.

But so far, it seems that these strange-looking men are doing a pretty good job.

At the same time, this group of strange-looking men were sitting together with gloomy looks on their faces.

They found an abandoned warehouse outside the last courtroom they had cleared out, cleaned out all the eels inside, and then placed the men and children they had rescued from the courtroom today in the warehouse and prepared to rest.

Logically speaking, this should be a relatively easy process, and Mu Sicheng would not burst into a desperate cry for help: "Bai Liu, what should I do! Please help me!"

Bai Liu rolled his eyes and looked at him: "Nothing can be done."

"But I really don't know how to take care of a child!!" Mu Sicheng was really going crazy. In his arms was a little kid who looked only four or five years old. The kid was now buried in his arms, grabbing his hair and crying loudly, "Mom! I want my mom! Didn't you say that if I go with you, I'll have a mom!"

"Where's my mom?"

Mu Sicheng was going crazy, his head was buzzing from all the crying: "Mom will! I will definitely find your mom! Please stop crying, okay!"

Yes, that's right, they are all taking care of the kids.

There were six "witch children" who were rescued from the courtroom. The oldest was only six years old, and two were only two years old. They were brought to the courtroom before they could even walk steadily. They were completely ignorant. When the judge asked these "witch children" in a coaxing tone whether they would choose the Church or your filthy and sinful witch mothers, all the children burst into tears in the dock in the courtroom:

"I want mommy!"

"You are a bad person! You took my mother away! Give my mother back to me!"

Therefore, the trial process for children was extremely simple and quick. Unless their fathers sternly asked them to change their testimony, almost all children would be sentenced as "sons of witches" in court, sentenced to do some low-level labor work, and grow up like slaves in this country.

Tang Erda held a two-year-old child in each hand and rocked him from side to side. The two children were tired of crying and fell asleep in his arms. They grabbed his collar and sobbed softly in their dreams with red eyes.

"What a beast." Tang Erda's face was solemn and cold, but his words were very soft, as if he was afraid of waking up the children. "How dare you judge such a young child and torture him."

Among the seven children were two girls, one aged four and the other six. After going to court, the two little girls were very resistant to and afraid of the Vatican, probably because they had witnessed their mother’s trial. They started crying in court and strongly rejected the bishop’s request to join the Vatican to cleanse themselves of their filth. They were also unwilling to drink holy water to prove their innocence and were eventually declared guilty by the entire jury.

They were not pronounced as "sons of witches" but directly "witches". It was said that evil witches came to the human world with the help of their polluted mothers and have not yet awakened their witch consciousness. They should be burned to death with holy fire in court, or in other words, identified.

Now these two girls, one lying on Bai Liu's back with her head tilted on his shoulder, and the other lying in Bai Liu's arms, being patted gently on the back by Bai Liu. They curled up into a small ball feeling insecure, their hands and feet twitching slightly, with a little ash left by the fire on their faces, and they fell asleep with tears in their eyes.

Bai Liu lowered his eyes to glance at the stains on the little girl's face, then gently wiped them clean with his sleeve.

Mu Ke only took care of one child, but the child was relatively quiet, just sleeping uneasily, waking up and crying from time to time, and then falling asleep again hugging Mu Ke tightly. He was looking at the child with some distress and complicated eyes, but when he heard Mu Sicheng's painful request for help and raised his head, he couldn't help but said with a smile: "Don't quarrel with him, he is just scared now, and he fell asleep when he was tired of crying."

Mu Sicheng was about to burst into tears. The energetic little boy hung around his neck and rode on his back, crying loudly for his mother and father. He almost choked with sobs as he looked at the silent Bai Liu and Tang Erda: "Why are you so skilled at taking care of children?"
