Chapter 340: Escape (2/2)

He mumbled something incoherently, about why he was there are why is he is wearing those clothes and what his name is.

He seemed to have completely lost his memory.

The next morning, the mouse returned to Watt, who got the gist of the information through Falck's translation.

He suddenly felt chills, he didn't know how the whole church worked, and they couldn't understand, how it prospered so quickly, but now it made sense.

They are forcing their numbers to grow and for some weird reason, they are not targeting cultivators, their only target being commoner people.

He suddenly thought of something, all the grand realm cultivators he sensed in this city previously are now wearing white robes.

Which means, they all belonged to the church. He connected the dots and immediately felt chills run down his spine.

He doesn't know what exactly is going on, but he does know something big is about to happen and it is not safe to stay here anymore.

He explained the situation to Philip and Jack and the trio decided to move to the imperial capital the same day.

They made their arrangements and started moving discreetly at night.

But to their surprise, all the city gates are completely blocked.

The city guards vanished and all that stood there in their place are people in white robes.

They too noticed the trio's movements and stopped them at the last gate.

”We need to go to the Imperial capital immediately. Our friend is not feeling well and we have to take him to the healer as fast we can, can you please give way.”

Philip said in an extremely worried tone. Watt and Jack exchanged a glance as Watt tied Sam to his back and took out Silver wind immediately.

The two of them took out methane grenades in both their hands and blasted straight at the four people that are blocking them.

They took out the beasts from their beast pouches and made their way into the sky.

Watt looked below, only to find out that the four people who are in the middle of the explosion and got all their bodies blasted away were recovering rapidly, their skeleton was completely intact and only the flesh seemed to have been affected by the blast.

They still had a smile on their face as they wore another pair of white robes. They didn't seem to have any beasts on them, but two of them are running towards them.

”While two of our fellow believers follow them and teach them the correct way of truth, we shall calm down the chaos caused by them within the city.

There is only a week till the big day and we shall be finishing the spread of faith by that time.

The two people are running behind as they flew, they didn't even wear any footwear as they made long and strong strides.

They are using nothing but pure physical force like brutes.

They didn't take any turn or diversion while chasing.

They crashed into rocks, boulders, and even trees.

The trio led them deep into forests and this turned out useless as they started using the trees as their footing to jump and even sometimes to try to reach their height.

The trio is attacking rapidly from the front and some attacks are even cleanly landed which led them to observe something.

The bodies of these people are different.

The spiritual energy waves coming from them are giving off the same vibes as that of a Grand realm cultivator at peak.

They cannot use any form of elemental attacks and could only rely on physical force. They couldn't even control the absorption of the spiritual energy of manipulating it at their free will.

In fact, they seemed quite oblivious of everything that regarded spiritual energy.

They are completely brainwashed and they don't seem to have any form of sanity left, their words are calm, but they are utter nonsense.

Last but not least, their extremely peculiar healing ability.

As long as their skeletons are intact and completely joined, they seemed to have no problem with healing no matter how serious their injuries are.
