Chapter 275: Chapter 33 Li Yu’s New Ride

Tom had actually prepared several contingencies, but they were never used, for the villagers led by Black Hammer were annihilated en route by the Universal Language teacher and the former Priest.

This even left the Guard Captain of the Black Hounds somewhat dispirited.

After all, during this time, he had been investigating not only the deaths of the two Sabbaths but also secretly collecting a good deal of dirt on the Silver Moon Church.

It was just a matter of slinging mud at each other, as if pretending that nobody else knew how to play this game?

Furthermore, the dirt on the Silver Moon Church didn’t even need to be fabricated, as Li Yu would say. Such a large organization, in existence for thousands of years and with millions of believers, was nearly impossible to be corruption free internally. If one was willing to look, there were bound to be plenty of surprises to be found.

That is what the battle of public opinion is all about. Being attacked unilaterally and just reacting to moves will only make one more and more passive; the best defense is still to go on the offense.

Tom wholeheartedly agreed with this, which is why he had gone to great lengths this time and had even acquired some explosive information related to Priest Jile.

He believed it would certainly shock everyone once revealed.

Unfortunately, today’s primary objective for the Double Rest Sect was to ensure Ireya’s initiation ceremony proceeded smoothly, and seeing Jile and his people already raising the white flag in submission, Tom couldn’t very well continue to pour on the pressure and had to give Jile a break for now.

At that moment, Jile himself was still brooding with a gloomy face, utterly unaware that he had just dodged a bullet.

Tom took his leave with a flourish, offered a bow to Miss Rabbit, and voluntarily stepped aside.

Almost at the same time, some of the people standing farther from the castle gate heard a strange honking noise again.

Even though they had seen plenty of bizarre sights today and witnessed the various mighty powers of the Double Rest Sect, the scene before them once again dumbfounded them.

They saw beasts with square faces and billowing black smoke coming from their heads, roaring as they sped along from the farmland paths.

On its back was also perched a dark figure.

It wasn’t until the creature with the rider drew a little closer that someone finally recognized the person on the back of the giant beast as the Double Rest Sect’s Prophet Merlin.

"It’s the Prophet! Prophet is here!!!"

The believers of the Double Rest Sect in the crowd immediately became excited upon witnessing this scene, while on the contrary, the faces of Pisya’s followers displayed renewed fear.

The main reason was the beast driven by Li Yu looked extremely ferocious. It didn’t have legs; instead, it had four wheels, two in front and two in back. Additionally, on its left face there were two unevenly sized strange small wheels connected by a belt that continuously rotated.

However, these weren’t the most astonishing aspects to the crowd; what truly rendered them speechless was that the creature’s body was made of iron, with visible rust spots.

Yet, it unmistakably possessed life!

Its vitality was so intense; its honking roars seemed to carry endless rage, as if it were ready to devour someone at any moment.

Even the believers of the Double Rest Sect couldn’t help but retreat several steps as it passed them by, not to mention those who worshiped Pisya.

Some of those who were more timid had already started screaming and running away.

Meanwhile, some Nobles inside the castle couldn’t help but draw their swords, looking warily at the dreadful beast brimming with a violent aura.

The best reaction among those present probably belonged to Miss Rabbit.

The Lady always had unconditional trust in Li Yu, and during Dragon Slayer Night, she had also witnessed the unforgettable scene of Li Yu riding an iron horse to face the giant dragon.

Her acceptance of the creature before her was higher than the others.

So she still maintained her elegant posture, standing still.

Li Yu brought the hand-held tractor to a halt about ten steps away from the Lady, then leaped down from it.

"You’ve arrived!"

Most people, including Miss Rabbit, thought that Li Yu had intentionally planned to make his entrance last, using the steel beast beneath him to strike awe into the audience and leave an unforgettable impression on everyone.

Even some of the more thoughtful ones believed that Li Yu, by making Ireya wait deliberately, was hinting that he was the one of higher status between them.

But the truth was not so; Li Yu’s late arrival was purely because he was delayed.

Or to say, he had underestimated the difficulty of driving a hand-held tractor.

Ever since that Qianjiang motorcycle was completely scrapped, Li Yu had been hoping that Eco-friendly Frog would get him a new means of transportation.

And who knows if Xiao Wa truly felt his anticipation, but a month later, it responded to his wish, though Eco-friendly Frog brought back not the little electric scooter Li Yu had been yearning for, but a hand-held tractor.

It was the kind often seen in the countryside, used for farm work and transportation, for hauling vegetables, bricks, and whatnot.

Like the previous motorcycle, this tractor also appeared to have a considerable history.

It must have been used by its original owner for at least two or three decades, and the engine probably had been replaced midway, but luckily, it still worked.

Having only just gotten it not long ago, Li Yu had only had time to roughly study how to start it, shift gears, and brake, and this time, he had brought it to officiate at Miss Rabbit’s initiation ceremony, incidentally making a show of it.

Worried about not driving well, Li Yu had specifically set out an hour earlier, but several times he nearly drove himself into a ditch.

Especially when turning, if he wasn’t careful, he’d be thrown right off.

It was damn difficult to drive.

If it weren’t for his immortality, Li Yu would have even considered abandoning the tractor halfway and walking the rest of the distance.

But fortunately, after slowing down, he finally arrived at the destination.

Although the entrance effect now seemed quite impressive, if Li Yu had to choose again, he would definitely have ridden a horse instead.

Mainly because unlike the motorcycle, the hand-held tractor’s shock absorption depended almost solely on one’s buttocks, and the roads in Green Field were especially bumpy; by the time Li Yu got there, he felt as if his buttocks were no longer his own.

In short, probably only Li Yu himself and the two squads of guards who had followed him along the way knew the hardships of the journey.

However, outwardly, Li Yu still had to maintain his usual composure and calm, nodding to the young girl.

The Lady took a deep breath, "Then let’s begin now..."

"Wait a moment," Li Yu said.

"Hmm?"

"I still have some matters to resolve over here."

Almost as soon as his words fell, a roar erupted from the crowd, "Kill these heathens!"

Then, a farmer who had been standing near the front drew a small knife from his waist and lunged at Li Yu!
