ried that his strength might not be enough to face the onslaught of numerous bosses, lords, and kings. He could only complete the infiltration by clearing them one by one.Now, he is far more powerful..."Player"

Many low-ranking Pale Church acolytes looked stunned.

As they understand it, players have only been entering the Hunter's Newbie Continent for about a year or so

Able to destroy the White Covenant's base within a year of entering the game, and it was located near a major main city

Come on, don't be serious!

However, the expressions of the pale high-ranking priests and senior deacons shifted slightly.

Unlike ordinary disciples who only need to do their duties, they also have some understanding of the entire situation on the novice continent of the Orion.

The Pale Order and the Corrupted Claw collaborated to launch a war, and naturally, they understood the inside story.

For player factions, they have always been a point of focus.

They've all heard the name Lu Kong. According to their sources, the kid is a regular on system announcements. In such a short time since entering the game, he's already reached level three and even completed the demigod advancement.

But they also didn't expect that Lu Kong would be related to the Annihilation Star River City branch.

After all, in their impressions, the Xinghe City branch had a Tier 4 peak Saint Spirit level bishop and many powerful bishops. How could they be destroyed by an ordinary Tier 3 player

> However, since this is the message above, it's probably very likely to be true.

This made many stewards and high-ranking stewards' faces turn grave, they remembered Lu Kong's name carefully, and were very wary of him.

Facing the discussion below, the elder's expression remained calm as he slowly said: "We don't yet know how this player found the Star River City branch. However, just to be safe, for the next period of time, all actions within the branch will be temporarily halted, awaiting orders from above to continue. Did you understand"

The elder's gaze swept across the multitude of pallid Cult disciples, who responded in unison.

The old man nodded in satisfaction, then continued to ask: "Have the people who went to retrieve the frost giant's corpse returned yet"

Hearing this, the steward and others who had been secretly watching the situation were stunned. Then, the head steward hurriedly said, "Archbishop Carmen, we're back!"

The old man turned his head and looked at the few people, his expression having an indescribable meaning.

Several people looked bewildered.

The head attendant, looking a little nervous, said, "Your Eminence, what is it"

Kamman said slowly, "A message came from above. Before the Star River City branch was destroyed, they recovered nearly a million Bloodfang werewolf bodies. A few days after recovering the bodies, the branch was destroyed."

Upon hearing this, the entire square fell silent. Everyone stared wide-eyed at the several officials who stood dumbfounded in their place.

They got so close they even silently moved away a distance, their expressions wary.

The attendants were somewhat at a loss.

The head servant hurriedly said, "My lord Bishop, we were extremely careful when we went to recover the body. We absolutely did not encounter anyone of unknown origin."

"Yes, Bishop. When we returned, we followed the proper procedures and took a long detour. We didn't find anyone following us!"

Looking at the bishop's meaningful gaze, several people felt a chill down their spines, sensing that something was amiss.

Cardinal Kamman slowly said: “I believe you are all fine, but just in case, for the next period of time, you will need to be detained. Rest assured, if it is confirmed that you are all fine, I will order someone else to release you.”

This made several people's hearts sink.

Imprisoned, you might just end up as an experiment subject by accident.

At that moment, Lu Kong suddenly noticed the silent, gaunt figure behind Cardinal Kamman turn its gaze to where he was standing, a hint of confusion in its eyes.

Lu Kong raised an eyebrow and took a few steps back.

These steps caused the gaunt figure's complexion to shift from confusion to ferocity.

The next moment, his body instantly vanished from where he stood, as if he had teleported to Lu Kong's location.

A long bone sword appeared in his hand, its sharp aura emanating, and the ground split open without warning.

Several attendants who were close to the land and air were instantly cut into pieces.

The area where Lu Kong was, which had been empty moments before, suddenly had a figure appear. A dozen or so damage numbers in the tens of millions floated above their head.

Land and air were beaten out.

He was surrounded by crimson flames, his heavy sword blazing with ferocious power as he swung it toward the emaciated man.

He doesn't fight back when he is hit. That's not his style.

However, this emaciated man was extremely fast. Even with Lu Kong's speed, he still dodged his attacks.

Lu Kong's heavy sword landed on the ground with a thunderous roar. The entire stronghold trembled violently, and the cracks in the earth deepened.

A raging wave of energy swept through the area, instantly killing the weaker members of the Pale Order while sending even the stronger ones flying backward.

Lu Kong looked at the gaunt man with a calm expression, raising an eyebrow slightly; "How did you find me"

During the questioning, Lu Kong unleashed his investigative technique, and information about the thin man materialized. head to look at Lu Kong, a white light emanating from his eyes. A mechanical voice rang out from him."Found a labyrinth trialist! Level 30! Profession...Demi-god!"The original mechanical voice became...
