"What the hell are you doing?" Wyatt asked, reeling in terror. Felix was also pressed to the ground and put in handcuffs as well. "No, wait! What the hell are you doing? You've got the wrong guy, I'm on Mister Malcolm's side," Felix shouted. The young man smirked, taking out a license and flashing it at Felix. "Faron Campbell, special handler of the Seechertown Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. We received a report about Wyatt Malcolm's serious crimes and are arresting him and all parties related to be investigated." "Chief Elsa Janae of the Seechertown Special Forces Department, assisting with the disciplinary inspection. Felix Cohen, you are under arrest for suspicion of leading local crime syndicates, illegal mining, and other charges." The crowd was stunned to find out the identities of the two people, only returning to their senses after a long time. Were they the good guys? On the other hand, Felix and Wyatt were practically trembling in terror. Neithe
Faron said at once, "Boss, you called me yourself. It's only natural for me to act as soon as possible." "Why did you come as well, though?" Elsa only needed to send out a team of officers, but she had shown up herself. Elsa shrugged. "It's been stressful for me these days, so I came out to get some fresh air." Wilbur looked around him and saw that the crowd was still there. "Okay. Say a few things to these people and have them go home after this." Elsa poked Faron, who walked up to Wilbur and turned to face the crowd. "Don't worry, everyone. We're determined to weed out every last criminal and hooligan here so all of you will get the safety and peace you deserve. You can all go home now. If there's anything you'd like to report, please head to our department in town and we'll tend to you at once and promise to take all your reports seriously." The crowd erupted into cheers, leaving gleefully. Just then, Wilbur's gaze landed on a rather forlorn-looking Kenneth. "Nupherson
Wilbur stared at Skyler for some time before saying, "You sure have everything planned out." "It's a gold mine. It's going to be a waste if I just leave it here," Skyler protested. Wilbur fell silent, glancing at Faron and Elsa. Faron chuckled. "It's honestly a pretty good idea. I can help you out. It should be fine as long as we go through all the legal procedures." With Faron's words, the gold mine was sure to follow through with little issue. Wilbur gave it some thought and saw the merits of Skyler's plan as well. "Sure. We'll take a look at the gold mine after we're done with lunch and decide." Everyone else nodded, and the four of them drove off after lunch to the gold mine. There was already a team working on Felix and Wyatt's case anyway. People like Faron and Elsa hardly needed to get involved. After over an hour of driving, everyone finally arrived at the gold mine. Half the hill had been scoured. What had once been a beautiful place teeming with greenery a
Constantine had spent the past month combing through all the streets of Seechertown, using his Magic Mirror to forge the glowing ball. A slight adjustment of the glowing ball would show him everywhere he had been. A moment later, he said slowly, "Everything's tainted now. Where is he hiding?" … Over at Sealake Island, in Eileen's room. Eileen had just returned from a walk. She closed the door of her room behind her, putting her hands on the ground. A wave of spirit energy surged out, forming a barrier between her room and everything outside of it. Eileen took out something that looked like a flat disc after that, putting it on the table and channeling her spirit energy into it. The disc lit up with mysterious patterns and symbols, glowing blue. A few minutes later, four figures appeared in the blue glow. They were an old and wrinkled lady with a hunchback, a muscular man in a classy suit, an elderly scholar in his fifties donning glasses, and a young man in his thirties
"Okay, pretend I said nothing then." The young man shrugged. Eileen smiled as well. "Alright. Thank you for answering my call, Elders." She retracted her spirit energy, and put the disc away, mumbling to herself, "It seems really likely. As if that sly old fox would just give up the position of club leader otherwise." … Over at the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense, Ryder was in the office on a top-secret call. "Commander, we've detected an abnormal wave of energy similar to that of the Church of Bloodism. The Seventh Apostle has entered Seechertown. I think he's going to strike soon. I'm afraid Deacon Penn and I alone won't be enough to take on an apostle. We might need backup," Ryder said. "There's no backup, let Penn handle this. You'll just supervise and report to me on just how powerful he is. I want to know where his limits are." "That… That's really dangerous, sir," Ryder replied. "It is, but I'm sure Penn will have a way." "Yes, Commander." The c
The demon evolved from the Seventh Apostle with its lower body submerged in the blood around it, the upper half making for a terrifying sight. "This is the power of blood, O' Mighty Blood God! Take this as an offering from your loyal servant, Cadillacia the Seventh Apostle. Feast away, Mighty Blood God," Cadillacia howled in demon form. Just then, Wilbur sat up fast and practically flew out of his room, shouting, "Ryder!" Within the next ten seconds, Ryder appeared in front of him holding his suitcase. Eileen had also appeared. Wilbur headed to the city center at once. "I found the guy." Ryder and Eileen followed closely behind him. Eileen said, "Mister Penn, I'm taking whatever's on that fella this time." "Go for it if you're powerful enough to do that," said Wilbur, leaving Eileen speechless. At the same time. A bright red dot appeared on the white ball of light in front of Constantine. "Found you." Constantine did not waste another word, walking out of the chur
The sight before Cadillacia did not seem to affect him at all. He wielded the axe in his grasp as he roared, "You lowly mortals dare challenge the power of the Blood God? Hand over the Blood Embryo now and repent your mistakes to the Blood God." "Yeah right!" Wilbur shouted. He drove his foot hard into the ground, shattering the concrete beneath him before attacking Cadillacia. He zipped up to Cadillacia's left side in no time, swinging his thunder cleaver out at an unimaginable angle to hack right into Cadillacia's hip. The immense power in the thunder cleaver let out a loud howling sound. Anyone below the Sanctuary Level would be killed outright by the attack. At the same time, Eileen let out a loud roar as she stepped forward, leaping into the air to drive one of her burning swords into Cadillacia's chest and the other against his neck. Constantine shouted, a bright holy flame shooting out from his cuffed hands to strike Cadillacia in the head. Cadillacia laughed wildly
Something had to be going on here, something Cadillacia was hiding up his sleeve that none of the three knew about. Whatever it was, it was helping him stay in this demonic state with endless energy. At the thought, Wilbur activated his Iris Veritas. The Dragon's Crystal in his body began to spin, and the spirit energy inside of it surged out as Wilbur's pupils turned golden. It was then that Wilbur realized the ground beneath the entire square, or to be exact, the ground beneath hundreds of meters beyond the square, was radiating with a bloody fog invisible to the naked eye. The fog was slowly rising up and condensing in Cadillacia's body, continuously supplying him with power to repair his damaged armor. Wilbur looked underground and finally discovered the sea of blood flowing through the sewers. So, that was where Cadillacia's power was coming from. "There's a sea of blood underground. As long as it doesn't dry up, he'll continue to have an endless supply of power," Wi
