Chapter 746: Chapter 241: Sacrifice to Bolton Mechanical Town (Seeking Monthly Pass)_3


    The robed figure voiced their predicament, “Without the ‘Prospecting Map,’ it’s a real hassle to locate the Sealed Land. Although sacrificing these refugees should grant us an epiphany from the Great God, it might take several days. I’m just afraid that the X Bureau people might get here before us... If we had another half a month, once the ‘Blood Plague’ spreads, it’ll be beyond their control...”


    Upon hearing this, Derby Williams also looked very grave, “Try to find someone.”


    The robed figure asked helplessly, “How should we search? I received a tip that your niece had escaped, and we’ve been intercepting the routes to all the major cities, but we haven’t encountered her. It’s been so many days now, she could be in any city by this point.”


    Hearing this, Derby Williams let out a cold laugh, “That niece of mine, I watched her grow up... Although she’s a bit young, I have to admit, the girl is highly ambitious and meticulous. Even in the face of adversity, she would never easily give up.”


    As he spoke, his eyes flickered like those of a fox, and he seemed to have realized something, “Now it seems that she has already bought the lordship rights of Bolton Town and sent someone to Dragon City for the registration receipt right away. As soon as she gets the receipt, she’ll be a legitimate lord. So... I suspect she might have been here all along, hiding somewhere in the refugee camp, waiting for news...”


    “Oh?”


    The robed figure perked up at the idea, thinking they should have thought of this themselves, but then mused, “But the Sacrifice Ceremony has already begun outside.”


    Derby Williams said indifferently, “Most of those in the refugee camp are ordinary Vampires, and with that ‘Sunny’ protection, she’s not so easy to kill. Have the people below be more vigilant, a big commotion will reveal her whereabouts.”


    As he spoke, his tone shifted again, “But I reckon it’ll be difficult. If that girl really is hiding in the refugee camp, and your people haven’t found her in all this time, it must mean that ‘Sunny’s’ hiding techniques are not bad. If we couldn’t find her before, it’s unlikely we’ll force her out now...”


    The robed figure asked, “What should we do then?”


    Derby Williams let out a cold smile, a plan forming instantly, “Release some of the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce, kill a few when the time is right. My niece has a kind heart, if she’s truly nearby, she might just be lured out...”


    The robed figure asked, “Should I go in person then?”


    “Forget it. The Sacrifice Ceremony can’t afford any mistakes, we need you more here.”


    “What about ‘Sunny’? That guy hides so well, he’s quite cunning. He might not fall for your baiting strategy.”


    Derby Williams was unconcerned, “He’s just a Secret Guard; you’re giving him too much credit.”


    This was a one-sided massacre.


    Leonard Churchill, leading Vera Williams and Pigeon, headed up the slope where the mist rendered visibility for him virtually nonexistent, but they managed to find the right direction to flee.


    However, he was unable to change the situation.


    The Divine Believers were well prepared, and there were experts in Machinery City laying plans. Even High-Order Card Masters arriving at this scene would be at a loss.


    The three hadn’t run far when suddenly a burst of gunfire erupted close behind them.


    On closer inspection, a group clad in armor, wielding Heavy Firepower Firearms and Mechanical equipment, charged out.


    Bolton City being a small town, there weren’t many influential Commerce Guilds.


    The Rose Chamber of Commerce certainly ranked as the top.


    They had come to protect Guild President Vera Williams, closing in on them.


    Captain Sam himself was a seasoned Second Tier, and the guild’s defense force and equipment were of the highest quality. They led a group of survivors from the town, fighting their way down.


    With too many people involved, the commotion was too great to conceal.


    And to disperse the bloody fog, they shot Flares as they advanced.


    Vera Williams immediately recognized those familiar faces and was greatly shocked, “That’s... people from the guild!”


    In her anxiety, she suddenly felt a jolt in her heart.


    Because witnessing this scene, her mind instantly recalled something, and she looked towards Leonard Churchill with a gaze full of shock and hope, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, you...?”


    If she remembered correctly, just a moment ago, he had said, “Don’t worry. They should be escaping soon.”
