Jiang Ran realized that the key to breaking the deadlock was not to make Bai Ge doubt herself, but to the word "devil"!
Bai Ge's mindset is incredibly firm because he is not a great philanthropist at heart; he just wants to achieve his own goals by using the lie of peace. Therefore, attacking him from a peaceful perspective is pointless.
The reason his paper scraps turned black earlier was probably because Jiang Ran mentioned "demon"!
Verbal attacks alone have little effect. This reaction is probably just a reminder to the challenger that if they want to deal with the white dove, they need to find items related to demons!
Collins had long coveted the position of city lord, and naturally spent a lot of time looking for ways to deal with these open rivals!
A demonic aura enveloped the white doves, turning all the paper scraps flying in the air black! The scraps mingled together, forming a figure draped in a black robe!
This is a "crow"!
Crow's face was fierce. He swung his cane, and two black gusts of wind were blown out, but they were easily neutralized by Collins and Jiang Ranran!
Once the white dove becomes a crow, it can no longer use its previous ability to become intangible! No wonder the rules say that the white dove's breakthrough point is the crow; now I understand what that means.
Collins roared, his voice echoing throughout the city: "You, White Dove, possess such potent demonic power! Everything you did before was indeed a disguise; you are a spy sent by the demons!"
He drew his iron sword from his waist, raised it high, and pointed it at the sky: "Today, in the name of 'Iron General,' I will put you to trial!"
The candidates killed each other. Although everyone knew this rule, it was probably better not to say it outright. Collins killed someone in public, so he had to find a good excuse for himself.
Bai Ge didn't bother to argue; only the victor had the right to speak, and his current situation was far from optimistic!
Having lost his ability to become ethereal, he simply couldn't possibly fight two opponents at once!
"Wips! You and I killed Collins together! I'll make you the city lord this time!"
Of course, the crow preferred his own life to the position of city lord.
Collins was determined to kill him! In Crow's view, Jiang Ran still had a chance to be won over, but unfortunately, Jiang Ran was no fool.
Can something just come true by saying it?
I'm afraid that if Jiang Ran betrays him and joins him in dealing with Collins, Raven will have to turn around and betray him!
Moreover, Jiang Ran still needs to find the source of his demonic power through Collins!
"superior!"
Without another word, the two charged at the crow!
The main force is Collins, and Jiang Ran is just sitting on the sidelines. With such a powerful free attacker, why should he need to put in the effort himself?
He only used his physical strength, without using any miracles or items, which was perfectly normal in Collins's eyes.
From his perspective, Jiang Ran was just a newcomer who had just advanced to the [Near God] level, so how could he possibly have any powerful methods?
Even without using skills, his near-god-level physique alone makes him a force to be reckoned with!
Under the combined attack of the two, Raven gradually became unable to hold on. However, without the ability to become ethereal, he could neither fight nor escape. In the end, he could only die here, beheaded by Klins with a single sword strike!
"White Dove! You should go to hell and study demons!"
The head flew up, the crow's body fell to the ground, and a wicked smile appeared on Collins's lips.
He had actually collected items related to demons long ago, but he hadn't taken action yet because even if he broke the illusion, Klins didn't want to fight White Dove 1v1. With Jiang Ran's help, he could take the opportunity to get rid of this major threat!
"Good!" Collins laughed heartily. "I'm determined to get the position of city lord this time!"
Then, he put his hand on Jiang Ran's shoulder: "By then, you will be the next 'Iron General,' and maybe even the city lord the year after that!"
The next Iron General? It seems that Collins has someone else in mind when it comes to choosing the deputy city lord. Could it be that he has other near-god-level helpers who he doesn't want to reveal themselves to the public right now?
Moreover, a lot of useful information can be gleaned from his words. For example, he directly stated that Jiang Ran could participate in the election for the next city lord. What does this mean?
This means he has no intention of seeking re-election! Does he not want to? Perhaps he can't!
The city lord cannot be re-elected! This is perhaps the rule of Paradise City! That's right, the most mysterious person in the entire Paradise City is the city lord, and in the battle for the city lord, the shadow of the previous city lord was nowhere to be seen!
Where did such a person go? If someone else were to take the position of city lord, what would the previous city lord be doing?
Collins, as expected of a general with real power, quickly summoned a group of people and directly convicted White Dove. He even kindly collected his body, thus ending the life of a former tyrant.
Jiang Ran and Lin Zhi followed him back to the General's Mansion. The mansion was decorated in an extremely grand style, but it also exuded a sense of solemnity!
"Report...! General, the deputy lord of Corno... he's dead!"
Korn's death could not be kept secret in the end. Well, Jiang Ran never intended to hide it anyway, so it was only a matter of time before it was discovered.
"Corno is dead too? Hahaha, this is truly a stroke of luck!" Collins laughed heartily. "Now, who dares to compete with me for the position of city lord?"
Among the remaining candidates, Collins is the most prestigious. Even if he does nothing and kills no one, as long as he can successfully participate in the speech, he can win the position of city lord!
Collins lay back on the sofa with his legs crossed, his smile undisguised: "I'm getting more and more excited for the speech this afternoon."
He waved for everyone else to leave, leaving only his two trusted confidants and Jiang Ran behind.
"Joining my side is definitely the wisest choice you've ever made!" Collins laughed twice. "Although we're not familiar with each other yet, I believe that after years of cooperation, we will become very good friends."
"cheers!"
He raised his glass and clinked it with Jiang Ran's. Jiang Ran didn't need to offend him at this moment. Anyway, with the Wheel of Fate activated, even if it was poisonous, it would become non-poisonous!
The red wine unique to Paradise City has a slightly fishy taste, but it's not as bad as I imagined.
But Jiang Ran didn't come here to drink.
"General, there's something I still don't understand."
"How did you obtain that power?"
Collins' smile faded: "I don't really recommend that you break these taboos."
Jiang Ran revealed a crazy smile: "People always need to be curious, don't they?"
He needed to portray himself as a madman who would stop at nothing for power, so that he could better gather more useful information from Collins's side!
