The sudden rain that filled the sky seed to pause at this mont, leaving only the water mist evaporated by the dazzling brilliance flowing in the darkness.
At this mont, everyone’s cognition and common sense were shattered.
The radiance connecting Heaven and Central Earth declared its splendid might, and that familiar light also awakened the hidden mories in everyone’s minds.
This massive brilliance lasted only a very short mont, but it was forever etched in everyone’s mory.
Drip-drop—
When the sudden rain was no longer evaporated in the air but naturally fell from the sky, splashing up sprays of water, the sound of drip-drop was like the tolling of church bells, resonating in the hearts of all.
People began to regain their senses from the trance.
They looked around in a daze.
The patrolling mbers who were once filled with murderous intent had now disappeared, and only a few non-ard logistics patrol mbers, along with the surrounding crowd, looked blankly at the world.
Weapons fell to the ground, and their owners had vanished from the world forever.
No blood, no cries of pain, everything happened in an extrely short ti.
Whether the mighty ones, who seed to possess inhuman strength, or the large spiders that shocked everyone’s hearts, were effortlessly erased in that instant.
Raindrops fell to the ground and splashed in puddles; an elderly man with a long beard holding only a small section of the spider’s leg trembled as he loosened his grip and took a half step back.
Then, the radiance hidden inside the spider’s body suddenly erupted, instantly swallowing the entire carcass of the spider and completely erasing it.
“Divine Being!”
Watching this magnificent brilliance, the elderly raised his head to gaze at the huge vortex hanging in the Firmant, prostrated on the ground, and trembled as he exclaid.
His cry also woke the other dazed people, and along with the lucky logistics staff, they all prostrated themselves on the ground.
And at this mont, the huge vortex in the sky also slowly dissipated.
It did not respond to the people’s cries or prayers; it suddenly appeared here and left without any concern.
It was as if it was rely passing by, casually crushing the ants by the roadside.
The heavy clouds reappeared overhead, but the prostrated people didn’t dare to make the slightest movent.
A man who had difficulty turning over in the rain lifted his head to look forward, as if he wanted to say sothing, but quickly closed his mouth again.
After a brief mont of silence, the elderly man at the front stood up, turned his head to look at everyone, and said, “The great Deity K has departed, He has saved our lives.”
Then he looked at the irate man and the long-haired man not far away, “Now, we need to decide our fate from here on out.”
Feeling the elderly’s gaze, the irate man imdiately stood up and picked up the surrounding firearms.
The long-haired man, observing his actions, also quickly followed suit, starting to pick up the weapons.
And the elderly too raised his hand, signaling everyone to rise.
He swept over the crowd and asked aloud, “Is there a Doctor?”
The crowd was silent for a mont before soone raised their hand, “I’m an intern Doctor.”
Following that, soone else raised their hand, “I’m a nurse.”
“Can I help?
I’m a veterinarian,” another person inquired while raising their hand.
With people gradually raising their hands, a small dical team was quickly assembled.
The elderly led people back under the sheltering tents, then arranged for the dical team to check everyone’s health.
Many people here were weak to begin with and were more susceptible to issues after being caught in the rain, and there were also those who had been grazed by stray bullets in the chaos.
At this ti, the irate man, along with the long-haired man, had gathered most of the firearms from around, and from among the crowd, they controlled a few physically stronger individuals and the logistics staff who were unard.
They then returned to the elderly’s side.
“Old man,”
The irate man looked at the elderly in front of him, carefully choosing his words and asked softly, “Was that really ‘K’ just now?”
“Don’t you have the answer?”
The elderly looked at him puzzled.
Almost everyone here has mories about K; when that glorious light appeared, they all knew it ca from him.
Moreover, just recently in the prison, this light had already perford one ‘Divine Miracle’.
“Divine Being…”
The irritable man sighed and glanced at the surrounding crowd, sighing again, “I just can’t bring myself to believe it.”
“The world has changed, to encounter K’s random rcy, is our fortune.”
The elderly man sighed softly, looking at the now organized group of people.
The irritable man was silent for a mont.
They indeed were fortunate; if it wasn’t for the favor of that great Divine Being, they probably would have been dead by now.
“You’re the professional,” the elderly man glanced at the people around him and then looked up at the irritable man, “we can’t maintain this state indefinitely, do you think we should leave here now?”
“Even though those guys left a lot of cars, if it were up to ,”
The irritable man glanced at the heavy rain outside, “I would choose to stay here,”
His gaze lingered on the faintly visible outlines of the mountains in the darkness and he spoke slowly, “It seems there are mountains behind us, and we still haven’t figured out exactly where we are.
Recklessly going out, with slippery roads at night and low visibility, it’s easy to encounter injuries or fatalities in complex terrain.
If we encounter an attack, it’s like trying to catch turtles in a jar.”
His gaze returned to look at the crowd around him, “It’s best to search nearby, this place is remote, those guys must have stored food and dicine, we find these supplies, let everyone eat their fill, then have a good sleep in a warm place,
“I will find a few people to take turns on guard duty with guns, after the rain stops at daybreak tomorrow, we can slowly move out together.”
“Hmm.”
Listening to him, the elderly man nodded slightly.
“We don’t know if they have more people nearby,”
At this point, the long-haired man hesitated to speak, “If we don’t escape as soon as possible, if another group cos, can we really get away?
K may not be watching over us all the ti.”
Hearing his words, the irritable man opened his mouth.
He knew the doubts the long-haired man had, and so did the others, but he had no concrete evidence to convince anyone.
It’s dangerous to go out; staying nearby could be even more dangerous.
“There are no other people outside.”
It was at this mont that the teenager’s cold voice rang in everyone’s ears.
The three n brightened up at his words, turned around, and saw the teenager walking through the rain curtain.
“You’re not dead?”
The long-haired man was sowhat surprised.
“Yeah, a Divine Being saved ,”
The teenager nodded lightly, then looked at the elderly man, “This should be an abandoned industrial park, in the mountains, with only one road leading out.
I’ve checked it, it’s very steep, and it’s very dangerous to pass at night if you’re not familiar with it, and there’s no telling how long it would take to get out,”
Then he looked at the long-haired man, “I’ve also looked around, the majority of those people were probably executed by the recent Divine Punishnt, there are no signs of life nearby.”
“That’s good.”
Hearing this, the long-haired man breathed a sigh of relief.
“Did you escape?”
The irritable man looked at the teenager, “You feel very ‘strong’ right now.”
“It’s a bit complicated to explain right now, but you might understand it as having acquired so kind of Extraordinary Power,”
The teenager shook his head, “But I did check the surroundings, it’s not safe out there, it’s so dark, and the route is hard to find.
Even for , crossing back to the city in this rainy night would be sowhat dangerous.”
“Oh right,”
The long-haired man seed to rember sothing and quickly asked, “Did you see that Central Earth young man?
I’ve been looking for him everywhere.”
“Him?”
The teenager paused, images of the trail that had guided him back here flashed through his mind, then he shook his head slightly, “You don’t have to worry, he’s probably a real big shot, he might even be an Angel Envoy of K, he can’t be trapped here.”
Hearing his words, the people looked at each other.
“So that’s how it is,”
The elderly man sighed lightly, looking up at the sky, “K has always been favoring us.”
Everyone nodded slightly.
“Perhaps this park has a way to contact the outside,”
After a mont of silence, the long-haired man lifted his head, glanced at the surrounding buildings, “Can we try to contact the gendarrie and ask them to find a way to pick us up tomorrow morning?”
“Don’t!”
The young man spoke up imdiately, looking up at the people attracted by his words, he hesitated for a mont, and then slowly said, “My brother is in the gendarrie, and he ‘committed suicide’ there while investigating a disappearance case.”
Everyone was stunned, then understood.
“If the gendarrie cannot be trusted,”
the long-haired man spoke in a low voice, “then do we have anyone to rely on in Feklay?
Can we really be safe after we go back?”
Upon hearing this, everyone fell into silence.
The boy next to them opened his mouth, but was unable to speak.
It was at this mont, he blinked in surprise, looking down at his shoes.
A string of numbers had been ‘carved’ into the surface of his shoes at so point, so mud was sared on the slope, partially covering the digits.
Even so, he could tell it was a phone number.
He rembered that there were no such numbers when he left, which ans it must have been carved while he was exploring the area for an exit nearby.
And the only one who could know his whereabouts at any ti was that ‘Central Earth Big Brother’.
He lifted his head, looked at the people in front of him, and smiled,
“Don’t worry, there’s always soone in this world holding the light.”
······
At the top of a building in the distance, He Ao gazed at the crowd that was gradually lighting up the square, picked up his phone to check the location information, raised his hand, and the Shadowless Sword returned to his side.
At the sa ti, his body started to change, rapidly transforming into the shape of the tall man, a faint glow naturally spreading around him, making him look exactly like the tall man.
A sort of chaotic ravings echoed in his ear, and this seemingly was the ‘power’ granted by that ‘Destroyer K’ they believed in.
He Ao picked up the phone, his finger on it, performing biotric recognition.
In a very short ti, the originally encrypted location information unfolded before his eyes.
Cloak of Replacent, the Extraordinary Item transford from the ‘Boss’ after his death.
It allowed He Ao to ‘replace’ soone’s identity, including their appearance, physical features, biological traits, and even their orientation in mysticism.
Now, He Ao was that ‘tall man,’ and even a Higher Being would not be able to distinguish the real from the fake without careful attention.
However, if a Higher Being concentrated their attention and seriously sought him out, they might be able to notice sothing amiss.
He Ao could ‘see through’ the disguise of the Cloak of Replacent with the Eye of Truth.
But to mortals, the disguise of the Cloak of Replacent was ‘absolute,’ and even chanical biotric recognition could not distinguish the difference.
Of course, after ‘replacing’ soone, He Ao could also gain so of the ‘replaced person’s’ mories, but they were very fragnted, not enough to pass the rigorous verification of the Rong Guang Society, and most likely unaware of the complex procedures of Rong Guang.
Therefore, He Ao simply led the tall man first, letting him complete the preliminary tasks and get the address, then took over the final steps himself.
Putting away his phone, He Ao looked at the lights in the rain once again, then turned around, walking into the night.

Dew Morning Building
“Okay, you guys stay there for now,”
The girl held her phone, stuttering in not so fluent Yika language, “Wait until tomorrow during the day, I will arrange for soone to co pick you up.”
Intermittent responses ca through the phone before the call ended.
“Whew—”
Lin Chichi pressed the phone to her chest, exhaling deeply.
Her Yika language was not very fluent, and the signal on the other side was not very strong; communication took a lot of effort for just a single sentence.
If it hadn’t been for an elderly man on the other side who could speak Yika, and if they only spoke Trock language, she figured she would be completely mute.
Buzz—
And just when Lin Chichi heaved a sigh of relief, a new call ca in.
Lin Chichi answered the phone.
“Chichi, were you on another line just now?
Any new intel?”
Yan Yue’s puzzled voice ca through the phone.
“So people suspected to have been kidnapped by the Rong Guang Society seem to have been rescued by Brother Hao Yi,”
Lin Chichi walked over to the table, picked up a cup of water and took a sip,
“They were trapped in an industrial park in the mountains, and Brother Hao Yi probably didn’t have ti to look after them, so he just left my number and dumped them on .
I told them to stay put for now; there’s nothing dangerous nearby, and it’s actually safer than in the city right now.”
“Mr.
Hao Yi has already delved that deep into the investigation?”
Yan Yue sounded sowhat surprised on the phone, “Any intel about those missing persons?”
“None,”
Lin Chichi scratched her head, “I asked; they virtually know nothing.
However, my guess is that, the group that kidnapped them is not the sa as the one I encountered.”
“Ah?”
Yan Yue was a bit confused on the phone, “Why do you say that?”
“Just guessing,”
Lin Chichi blinked, “Since Brother Hao Yi has investigated that far, and according to what the missing persons said, ‘K’ has descended Divine Punishnt, wiping most mbers of the Rong Guang Society off this world, I reckon that with Brother Hao Yi’s abilities, he must have obtained so critical intel by now.
“But he didn’t warn , nor did he directly give the intel, so I think, he most likely believes that our investigation is different and he doesn’t want the situation there to interfere too much with our investigation here.
“The Rong Guang Society in Feklay might not only have one organizational system; here, we may still have a big rat.”
“That sounds very reasonable, so…”
Yan Yue realized what she was about to say.
“So we still need to continue our investigation along the original pace,”
Lin Chichi looked at her phone, “Yan Yue, did you call because there’s a result on the warrant investigation?”
“Just as you guessed,”
Yan Yue quickly said, “Among those guys you caught, several Transcendents had been on Moonlight’s wanted orders before.
They are Western Lands ethnicities who lived in the Tia Empire; after committing cris, they fled from the Tia Empire to the Western Lands,”
She paused for a mont, “And Moonlight has ample evidence to show that they ran to the Western Lands under ‘Daybreak’s’ protection.”
“Daybreak, as expected,”
Lin Chichi took a deep breath, her hand resting on the docunt on the desk, “Maybe we can break through from this point.”
“Chichi, don’t get your hopes up too high, even though we now know that Daybreak might be involved in this,”
Yan Yue’s voice llowed over the phone, “But knowing this information can at best help us guard against Daybreak and ‘extort’ so information out of those captured.
However, it’s still very difficult to find Daybreak based on this.
“Moreover, the organization Daybreak is very dangerous.
If they are really colluding with the Rong Guang Society, it’s hard to say what that may lead to, so we’d better be careful.”
What responded to her words was a brief silence.
“Chichi, are you there?”
Yan Yue asked again.
“I’m thinking, if Brother Hao Yi encountered this situation, what would he do,”
Lin Chichi’s voice slowly rose in the empty office, “Yan Yue, if this information is used well, it might be very useful.”
“Hm?”
Yan Yue was puzzled.
“The people who kidnapped ‘Senwen’ want us to point the bla at the World Tree Organization in Feklay,”
Lin Chichi slowly said, “Then why not do as they wish?”
“What are you planning to do?”
Yan Yue was taken aback.
“If we find it difficult to locate Daybreak, then let them co to us.”
Lin Chichi’s hand rested on the desk, her reply serious.
