Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!

The unclean entity Sogros, who had retreated back into the high-dimensional space, "looked" at a corner of the material world that was rapidly fading from "sight" and felt somewhat alarmed.

The strength of the opposition was extraordinary; that arrow was nothing like a human could launch. Apart from those brutish fools with no brains, it was hard for Him to connect it to anyone else.

Although He also did not fear those muscle-bound louts, if His body were to be truly smashed to pieces in the material world, it would still harm His origin in the high-dimensional world to some extent.

Even though They would not truly die in the material world, just the damage to Their power alone was also unacceptable to Them.

This time... let it be!

However... Sogros smiled and opened His palm; within the decaying orb of light in His hand, a condensed model of a human girl was curled up and slowly rotating inside.

Although the retreat was hasty, it was still a simple matter to abduct a human girl who had lost her ability to resist.

The girl's Spiritual Energy was indeed strong, but after her strenuous resistance, her Spiritual Energy had already depleted.

Possessing such a soul with potential, He believed Father would certainly feel consoled...

After the unclean Sogros had made His escape, what remained in place was only the once Pope of the sect, whose gaunt body had already become a parched and skeletal figure.

Wrapped in a large robe underneath which was nothing but emptiness, He stood on the spot, appearing ready to collapse at any moment.

And within those turbid black eyes overwhelmed with terror, a green tornado was rapidly enlarging within His field of vision.

"Whoosh!"

Like a fine arrow piercing through ash and wood, the slender arrow passed through, and the swirling wind that it brought along instantly scattered the already decayed body, turning it into ashes in the wind.

The momentum of the arrow did not lessen, as it fiercely drilled into the mechanical wall, creating a spiral eye.

The green toxic fog, following Sogros's retreat, spread like boundless water, gradually dissolving without the force that sustained it.

Only after the enemy's aura had completely dissipated did Bai E lower his bow and arrow and step inside the mechanical cavern.

Those believers in the Heretical Sect, twisted by the demon, were too deeply eroded, beyond saving.

But without the cover of the poison fog and the enhancement of the painful link, even if they had mutated, they were no match for the few players who remained at the scene.

Such a minor clean-up did not necessitate Bai E's concern.

The first thing the remaining Executor did was approach Bai E, "Thank you for your help, sir! But may I know where you come from?"

Although the tone was respectful, there was also a hint of inquiry.

The demons were full of deceit, and now that this newcomer had driven them off with a single arrow, at little expense to himself, it seemed as if there was a hint of promoting this man. Perhaps he was the mastermind behind the plot.

The caution that ran in his blood when dealing with demonic events led him to risk offending Bai E in order to find out the background of this man.

Bai E, with a calm expression tinged with curiosity, asked in return, "You don't recognize me?"

"I'm constantly tracking demons in the lower levels of the city; I'm not familiar with the city's noblepersons..."

"Oh," Bai E nodded, "I'm General Bai E from the military district. I came after receiving a distress message from Miss Franca, the Executor."

As he spoke, Bai E's gaze swept around, his tone carrying a hint of regret, "But it seems I was a step too late."

It was the Executor's duty to ask questions, and Bai E, having explained, did not entangle himself with him any further.

He quickly walked over to Franca, who lay on the ground. This noble lady, born of a great family, never carried a sense of superiority and as an Executor of the Arbitration Place, she was always at the forefront in the fight against demons.

Fortunately, this time she was only temporarily unconscious and had not suffered any serious injury.

Mobilizing Spiritual Energy, he gently infused it into Franca's slender body. Under the nourishment of a warm current, Franca's lashes quivered in her stupor.

Then she suddenly opened her eyes.

"Huff!"

Accompanied by a sharp breath, Franca sat up abruptly from Bai E's arms, "The unclean one!"

"He has already fled," Bai E consoled softly from behind.

Turning to glance at Bai E who was close at hand, Franca's tense body relaxed once more, but her eyes involuntarily scanned her surroundings.

It was only after realizing that a significant character seemed to be missing that Franca was taken aback again and urgently asked, "Where's Glatis?"

Bai E was not aware of the girl's existence, nor of all that had transpired before; he just inquired curiously about the name, "Glatis?"

"Sir, when that unclean one was fleeing, it seemed Miss Glatis was also taken away." Gong Yan, who was observant, quietly explained to Bai E nearby and also informed Franca of the girl's final fate.

"Taken away?" Franca was startled, a hint of sorrow appearing in her eyes, "She should not have been taken away..."

"..." Bai E pursed his lips, remembering that the demon did indeed take the girl with Him when He fled.

Given the girl's close connection to the demon's aura, was it not because of her that the demon was summoned?

Or was there more to the story?

Yet, even if he had known there was more to it, at the time it would have been difficult for him to snatch the girl directly from the demon's grasp as the latter was fleeing.

Clearly lacking the strength and mood to explain in detail, Gong Yan, with her delicate thoughts, took it upon herself to explain to Bai E, "That girl called 'Glatis,' although the main summoner of this demonic event, was also misled by her Heretical Sect Pope teacher. She has an exceptional talent and harbors a great aspiration to heal and help others but was deceived by evil people, resulting in all the damage suffered by the sect believers being transferred onto herself. The girl who initially just wanted to ease others' burdens as much as possible, gradually wished to shoulder the world's suffering on her fragile shoulders..."
