Chapter 781: Looking For SomeoneTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

Charlot charged on, crossing a river and a forest, until he arrived before a small town in the mountains. This was another small town in the vicinity of the Imperial Capital. Due to its geographical location, it had always been a stopover for the merchants travelling from the south to the north. It was also a place which gathered countless merchandise as many small merchants, who were unable to set up shops in the Imperial Capital, would choose to gather here. Therefore, this place gradually became a market with quite a bit of reputation.

In the recent few days, as the news of the evil god summoning ritual spread wider, more and more Knights started to gather to this small town.

The Church of Universal Truth knew that Alexander and the others had intentionally leaked out this news. It was as if they were certain that the Church of Universal Truth would be unable to send over too much battle prowess, thus they had intentionally lured more Knights to come in case there were insufficient sacrifices.

At the thought of this, the corners of Charlot’s lips could not help but curl up into a cold smile.

Upon arriving at the small town, Charlot did not head off to search for the people he was looking for. Instead, he sat down casually at a corner and gazed at the night sky in the direction of the Imperial Capital while letting out a sigh.

Although he had come into contact with the Church of Universal Truth, he still did not have any confidence regarding the battle situation tomorrow.

Shaking his head, Charlot gradually fell into deep sleep. Meanwhile, his mind still filled with the scenes of the fighting and killing between the Krieg royal family, the Mage Association, Fang Xingjian, and the people from the Church of Universal Truth.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out, causing Charlot to wake up in shock.

Charlot opened his eyes and was stunned for a moment. Then his vision cleared up as he looked at the sky in the direction of the Imperial Capital.

Huge purple light pillars soared into the sky, and it was as if the entire sky had become purple. The purple glow was reflected onto the earth, covering everyone and everything with a layer of purple light. It gave off an intensely ominous feeling.

‘Has it started?’ Charlot pursed his lips. He knew that this was due to the Purple Mage King activating the formation which had merged into one with Alexander’s Divine Country. Then they would bring the entire Imperial Capital under their control.

Right now, the Imperial Capital had completely become an independent and abnormal space-time. If one wished to stop the evil god summoning ritual, they would have to dive deep inside and defeat the person who had activated the ritual.

‘Then they should be appearing soon.’

As the huge abnormality occurred, the many Knights in the small town formed groups and rushed toward the Imperial Capital.

‘I must find a strong group that has the capabilities to reach the center but aren’t heretics who are brutal and bloodthirsty. If my memories serve me right…’

Charlot did not follow the crowd but hid at the entrance of the small town, waiting as batches of experts appeared. It was only when one group appeared did his gaze narrowed slightly, ‘That’s them.’

It was a group of two men and one lady. There was a middle-aged man, a young man, and a young lady.

Charlot could clearly remember the identities of these three people from his memories.

They came from the Eastern Sand Region. The middle-aged man’s nme was Yue Shan, and he was the Eastern Sand Region’s Deputy Governor and had the nickname Mountain Breaking Single Punch. Right now, his cultivation should be at second transition level 29.

The young man was his disciple, Clyde. He was a second transition level 24 Conferred Knight, a genius from the Eastern Sand Region.

The young lady with red hair, who looked very beautiful, was Yue Shan’s daughter. She was Yue Xianru, who had just reached first transition level 19. Having just reached 16 years old, she looked very pure and naive but was filled with youth and vigor. She could be said to be a dream lover for countless young men.

This time around, they had also received news and came rushing over to the Imperial Capital, hoping to try their luck to see if they could have a share of the benefits.

Seeing the three of them leaving the town, Clyde followed after them silently. Thankfully, Yue Shan and Clyde were in no hurry to go on their way and they also had to take into consideration of Yue Xianru’s cultivation. Therefore, the three of them did not move very quickly, and Charlot could just manage to keep up with them.
