Chapter 136 - 111: Rescuing the Witches, Facing the Church Head-On
Chapter 136: Chapter 111: Rescuing the Witches, Facing the Church Head-On
He kept controlling the Earth Power, advancing underground, and soon he arrived inside Beibing City, getting closer to the target.
In this process, he cautiously concealed the fluctuations of Magic Power.
Though the speed was slower, it was safer. There was more than one Demon Hunter in the city now!
While underground, David identified his current location through the rats above.
During the investigation last night, Annie discovered a place where Holy Light Knights were most concentrated, and he guessed that this should be where the witches were hiding.
After approaching the area, David directly activated the Eye of Magic Power, and immediately three waves of Magic Power appeared in his Tier Four Spirit Power perception.
...
At this moment in a bungalow.
Lingnai, Melissa, and Sofia were carefully hiding.
But the messenger had left for such a long time without any news, and their hearts had fallen to the bottom.
Fortunately, the Church’s Demon Hunters had not searched this area yet, otherwise, they would have definitely been found.
"It seems we can only rely on ourselves."
Melissa spoke in a deep voice, "I will try to use my Charm Ability to control the patrolling soldiers."
Finding a way to have the patrolling soldiers help them leave was the only method she could think of now.
Even if it meant sacrificing her body, she was determined to lead her sisters out of this city and head to the Wizards’ Holy Mountain.
Lingnai and Sofia exchanged a glance.
Both of them could fight, but leaving Beibing City by force was definitely impossible now.
Thus, time passed little by little.
But just as Melissa was trying to find the right moment to implement the plan, the ground inside the room suddenly rippled.
"Is this... the power of an Earth Mage?" The three were startled, then beamed with delight.
David’s voice also transmitted from the mire, "Don’t struggle, I’ll take you away."
The three exchanged a look, feeling the ground beneath their feet turn to mire, their bodies slowly sinking into it, they did not struggle.
Although they didn’t know who came to rescue them.
But in the end, it was a wizard comrade, better than falling into the Church’s hands.
Seeing the three remain silent, David also breathed a sigh of relief, and directly pulled them into the mire.
Then, the mire quickly vanished, and the ground restored its original state.
The Holy Light Knights outside knew nothing of what happened inside the bungalow, completely unaware that the three witches had disappeared.
...
Beibing City, City Lord’s Mansion.
Hillman and the Lord of Beibing City were discussing the situation of the Silver Moon Empire.
The two had been friends for a long time, which was the main reason Hillman chose to trap the witches in Beibing City.
As the Northern Lands plunged into war, many witches had already fled to the Far North.
These three witches were among the few who remained in the Northern Lands and were also retreating towards the Crystal Song Forest.
He thought this might be the only chance to lure out that Ice Mage.
"There’s actually a Tier Six Frost Giant Wolf appearing at Frost Wolf Ridge."
The Lord of Beibing City mentioned the recent disturbance caused by the Frost Wolf Clan in the Northern Lands.
Hillman nodded slightly upon hearing this.
Actually, he protected the Silver Moon Saintess in the Northern Lands, anticipating chaos.
Only in chaotic circumstances was it better suited for the spread of the Holy Light Doctrine, making those Holy Light Believers more devout.
But due to the presence of the Frost Wolf Clan, the chaos in the Northern Lands was quelled instead.
This was clearly not what the Holy Light Church wanted to see, but they couldn’t actively instigate chaos.
Therefore, Hillman focused his main efforts on the witches, wanting to find the Ice Mage who killed Char.
If the Ice Mage really appeared in Beibing City, he would definitely capture him and bind him to the stake for Holy Light’s judgement!
"Those witches won’t escape," Hillman confidently lifted his glass.
But just at that moment, his heart suddenly stirred, eyes suddenly looking far ahead, just now he sensed a strong fluctuation of Magic Power.
"It appeared?"
"Only... an Earth Mage?"
His expression changed drastically, suddenly looking at the ground below.
Originally, he thought the Ice Mage would come, but unexpectedly, there was an Earth Mage!
This rendered many of his arrangements invalid.
However, the opponent’s power couldn’t escape his Magic Power perception!
Next moment, his figure stood up, fully activating the Demon Hunter bloodline within.
In his Spiritual World, everything around turned to darkness, and within that darkness, a light moving towards outside the city shone like a candle in the night!
"Don’t think of running!"
His figure rushed out directly.
The Lord of Beibing City saw this, his gaze slightly narrowed, beginning to gather the Knight Order.
...
Underground at this time.
David was quickly moving with the three witches.
He wasn’t sure if he’d been discovered, so all he could do now was to leave as soon as possible.
Not long after, he led the three witches to the tunnel’s entrance.
Just as he was going to continue escaping with the witches, his gaze suddenly looked above the ground.
With his Tier Four Spirit Power, he could sense a figure above pursuing him.
"Were we discovered after all?" David felt somewhat helpless.
He instantly confirmed, it had to be the Demon Hunter named Hillman.
"Master Wizard?"
The three witches saw Master Wizard stop and felt puzzled.
"Someone is in pursuit."
"You continue running forward along this path, don’t look back."
