Chapter 3355: PatrollerEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Adam frowned slightly and murmured in a barely audible voice, as if talking to himself, "Shadow God, he is a guardian directly under the Eastern Church. If they discover us, we’ll be in serious trouble."

"What are you saying?"

Malachi was surprised to hear Adam speaking to himself.

What was wrong with this guy’s mind?

And what the hell was Shadow God?

Adam remained silent. He looked up at Malachi again and asked in a tone devoid of any emotion, "Kill him?"

"You dare!"

Malachi’s heart leapt in terror, and he shouted, "If my spiritual body dies, the flesh in the Holy Spirit Temple will immediately collapse. The Eastern Church will detect the anomaly and send people to investigate! You absolutely cannot escape!"

"Heh... the church..." Adam listened to Malachi and sneered contemptuously, "Is that so?"

"What are you trying to do!?"

Seeing the terrifying smile on Adam’s face, Malachi felt a deep sense of unease rising in his heart.

This man had appeared out of nowhere, and his actions gave off an air of utter recklessness.

Zane quietly reminded Fang Heng, "Fang Heng, this is bad. Killing him isn’t the problem, but if church personnel come to investigate, it’ll be a serious headache."

"Hmm."

Fang Heng pondered quickly, weighing his options, and nodded, "Adam, leave him for now."

Adam retracted the coldness from his eyes and murmured respectfully, "Yes, great Shadow God, I understand."

"Scared now, are you? Then release me quickly!"

Seeing that Adam did not act, Malachi relaxed slightly, thinking Adam was intimidated. He immediately shouted, "The church will notice I haven’t returned soon and will send people to search. You won’t escape either! It’s still not too late to turn back!"

"Shut up!"

Adam gave Malachi a cold glance and then ignored him, continuing to follow Fang Heng’s instructions, shuttling crystal ore between the real world and the spiritual world.

Malachi froze at first, then furrowed his brows.

He could not understand what Adam was doing.

Not killing him? Not letting him go?

Was he trying to buy time?

Malachi attempted to struggle but found the chains binding him extremely strong, and his spiritual body had been heavily injured, making escape impossible.

Helplessly, Malachi forced himself to stay calm and observed Adam’s movements, quietly waiting for rescue.

Soon, Malachi noticed something strange.

A spatial node?

When had it appeared?

Even more surprising, Adam kept using the spatial node to teleport, each time carrying a full bag of ore into the spiritual world, moving hurriedly without pause.

Malachi watched Adam closely, silent, but a bad premonition grew in his heart.

Had there been trouble in the Thunder Basin?

Those ores...

They looked very much like the spirit crystal raw ore from the Thunder Basin.

Malachi knew that spirit crystal ore formed naturally and was scarce.

To maintain ecological balance, the church limited the amount of ore collected each month.

But now, the ore Adam had secretly moved alone was equivalent to two or three years’ worth of the Thunder Basin’s production.

And how had he mined so much in such a short time?

Could it be...

A terrifying thought rose in Malachi’s mind.

Had the Thunder Basin already been taken over by someone?

...

In the real world, at the Thunder Basin,

Fang Heng stood behind the spiritual teleportation magic array.

The church would soon notice Malachi’s disappearance and would likely send search teams to thoroughly investigate the spiritual world and the Thunder Basin domain.

Time was running out.

He needed to speed up!

Fang Heng quickly drew a stack of sealing rune papers from his backpack and scattered them outward.

"Bang! Bang bang!!!"

Lickers leapt from the exploding sealing rune papers, quickly completing their normal zombie form conversion, and using their division skill, rapidly multiplied, scattering to excavate ore.

"Whoosh!"

Fang Heng clasped his hands together in front of him again.

Shu!

The God’s Eye in his right pupil spun rapidly.

Runes of magic arrays appeared floating in the air around Fang Heng.

The dark-colored runes quickly condensed, gradually forming large, high-tier alchemy magic arrays.

"D*mn, going all out?"

Zane muttered under his breath, quickly transforming into shadow form and levitating into the air.

Looking down, he saw that within just a few minutes, over forty alchemy magic arrays densely covered the space around Fang Heng.

"Whoosh!!"

The alchemy magic arrays activated simultaneously, almost all bursting with blinding purple light.

Immediately, the scattered spiritual energy in the Thunder Basin was frantically drawn toward the arrays, forming a visible vortex in midair.

At the same time, purple spirit runestones quickly condensed and formed in the center of the magic arrays.

Zane frowned and whispered, "Fang Heng, you’re drawing this much energy. The fluctuations are so intense, the church will probably notice."

"It’s fine."

Fang Heng said, forming another imprint with his hands.

The materialized psychic force rapidly dispersed outward.

The spatial rift channels nearby reacted violently to the spiritual stimulation, contracting sharply while releasing even greater strength fluctuations.

Stronger psychic, spatial, and elemental forces surged into the magic arrays.

Zane’s heart skipped a beat. He realized Fang Heng was stimulating the spatial rifts to release more power in a short time.

But doing so would make the space extremely unstable, with a high probability of collapse and explosion.

Explosion?

Zane suddenly realized something, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.

Meanwhile, Dane, the bishop in charge of guarding the Thunder Basin, was studying the spirit runestones just obtained.

"The runestones are in perfect condition and can perfectly integrate with the Holy Spirit Temple’s teleportation magic array."

"We have copied the remaining alchemy magic arrays found on site and submitted them to the church for review."

Zane detailed the incident that had just occurred in the Thunder Basin, then added, "The students’ identities are also under investigation. The alchemy arrays we found were of a high level, not something ordinary students could set up. I personally suspect this is related to the Alchemy Society."

"Good work."

Bishop Dane nodded lightly.

"Bishop, the Alchemy Society is becoming bolder. Previously, they only secretly smuggled some ore, and we overlooked it. Now they are showing interest in spirit runestones as well. If this continues, they will only become more reckless..."

"Boom!!!"

Suddenly, a thunderclap echoed through the camp, interrupting the oracles’ conversation.
