Crackling.

As those faint electric arcs appeared, Mother Yisodel instantly became extremely cautious and distanced herself a little.

Unlike the half-learned bishop, Mother Yisodel should have awakened her Spiritual Energy a long time ago, and she likely possessed abilities similar to Mind Sensing or Sixth Sense. Almost at the moment Su Ziyu activated the Static Field, she sensed a trace of danger.

"Who are you, exactly?" Mother Yisodel gazed at Su Ziyu in the distance, her brows slightly furrowed.

Humans shouldn't possess such powerful Spiritual Energy!

She had seen Spiritual Fluctuations of this level before, but they were never from humans, only from some ancient creatures hidden on Earth.

——"Thunder Strike!"

A tremendous bolt of Lightning descended from the sky.

Mother Yisodel's face changed dramatically, her pale green hair fluttered in the wind, and a semi-transparent pale green barrier suddenly appeared on her body. She reached out to pull something from her garments and threw it on the ground.

Bang!

In the dull sound of the explosion,

a cloud of pale green dust spread out.

Su Ziyu's sight was completely blocked, and he had to rely on his Spiritual Energy to roughly locate her.

"Alarm! Alarm!"

"High intensity radiation pollution detected!..."

That pale green dust, whatever it was, started drastically increasing the radiation pollution index as soon as it came into contact with him. Su Ziyu didn't dare to enter it and instead gathered a Lightning ball in his palm and flung it inside.

Mother Yisodel's figure had vanished from view.

When she reappeared, she was already one or two hundred meters away. This mysterious mother watched Su Ziyu from afar, murmuring, "Aliens? No!"

"Aliens couldn't disguise themselves so well as humans."

"Hmph."

"I'll remember you!"

With that, Mother Yisodel quickly disappeared into the depths of the ruins.

Ran away?

We haven't even started fighting yet?

How could she just run off like that?

By this time, Su Ziyu's radiation pollution level had already risen to 16.8%. He didn't dare to recklessly chase Mother Yisodel either and quickly picked up the bishop's corpse, then retreated swiftly. Leon's figure appeared in his sight, but the collapsed ruins prevented many from approaching for now.

"Protective suit!" Su Ziyu tossed the headless corpse and the head over, speaking in a deep voice, "Be careful!"

"I just encountered Mother Yisodel."

There's something wrong with this woman.

This is a world with an Energy Level of 1, and a Spiritualist of her caliber is hard to come by. The Spiritual Energy Mother Yisodel just displayed was roughly around LV6, yet Su Ziyu broke through to LV7 by relying on the Power of Divinity. It's extremely difficult for the natives to reach this level.

"What about the items on him?" Leon glanced through the body with a somewhat grave expression, asking.

Su Ziyu shook his head, "She took it away by accident. Were you looking for a glowing Crystal Ball?"

"No." Leon's expression was somewhat surprised, a faint glimmer flashing in his eyes as though he was scanning with electronic vision, then he slit the bishop's abdomen with a Dagger, extracting an oily paper-like item from the flesh. Spreading it open, he took a glance and said, "He actually hid it inside his body."

The Brotherhood's target wasn't that Crystal Ball?

Su Ziyu glanced at the spread paper, which held a peculiar map alongside the outline of a humanoid creature. Its appearance was strange, with dark green skin, a white belly, an immense and slick body, humanoid shape, a fish-like head, some scales, bulbous eyes in a dark red hue, and peculiar gills on both sides of its neck. Its long limbs were webbed.

——"Deep Diver! Unknown Ancient Oceanic Intellectual Creature!"

The paper contained numerous small writings, which Leon only glanced at before storing away, then he looked up, "Where's Zero? Did something happen to her?"

"Passed out. Just over there." Su Ziyu pointed ahead, in a deep voice, "What is this thing?"

Leon hesitated fleetingly, then signaled for others to fall back, quietly saying, "Do you know about aliens?"

Aliens?

Su Ziyu's expression grew puzzled. He hadn't heard anything about aliens in this world.

"The Brotherhood isn't sure if they're aliens either," Leon hesitated, slowly saying, "But we did discover some peculiar creatures' corpses. They contain some kind of special active property in their genes, allowing them to regenerate endlessly."

"In other words, they're almost immortal!"

"The Genetics Faction refers to them as 'Deep Divers,' a kind of unknown life residing at the deepest parts of the ocean."

"It's said that they've been living on Earth for a very long time."

With a faint thud, Zero jumped over with slight discomfort, shaking her head to clear it. "Got the item?" she asked.

"Yes." Leon nodded, passing the paper over.

Zero took it and immediately began scanning; her electronic eyes swiftly scanned through as Gaia's cold, robotic voice echoed in her mind, "Scan complete. Data stored in the database."

"Let's get out of here first." Leon gestured for everyone to withdraw.

During the departure,

he revealed some secrets to Su Ziyu.

The Crystal Ball in the bishop's possession wasn't the Brotherhood's target. Apparently, it was a sacred artifact he casually took from the Mechanical Atomist Pantheon. The Brotherhood's true target was that paper, recording the coordinates of a mysterious city. The intelligence was obtained from the Genetics Faction, indicating they were also searching for those peculiar species known as 'Deep Divers.'
