Chapter 2788 Important Discovery
Within the areas controlled by Zarain, it was extremely easy to restrain objects that were made of metal.
A slight interference with the magnetic field was enough to get it done.
In spite of that, they were confident their weapons were still powerful enough to pierce the equipment.
Boom!
When their holy weapons struck the equipment in front of them, a strange shockwave reverberated across the surface. However, it wasn’t damaged at all.
Once the shockwave dissipated, everything returned to normal.
This…
The eighteen Archangels from Sacroria were dumbstruck.
“Can this material be…”
“T-This…”
Having realized something, their expressions drastically changed.
From their tone, it appeared that they recognized the material the equipment was made from.
They were so shocked by the discovery that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
No one could imagine what it was that astounded the eighteen Archangels to that extent.
“Can it be… Behind them…”
Upon the realization, the Archangels began speaking gibberish.
Exchanging glances, their eyes were filled with bewilderment.
With that, everyone furrowed their brows with a grim expression. It was as if they were expecting the arrival of a powerful foe.
In fact, two of them were looking forward to a glorious death.
At that moment, the men from Diviniteria arrived.
“Leave this to us. We will break down this wall at once!”
This group of fighters didn’t think much of the equipment in front of them and assumed they could break it down easily.
However, one of the Archangels warned, “You won’t be able to. Even though you are not restrained, it’s impossible to do so! Even we can’t open it within a short time, let alone you.”
Everyone gasped as they couldn’t believe what they heard.
Given that Sacroria can’t do it. What should we do then?
No one had any idea.
At that moment, everyone from Diviniteria had arrived, except for Dr. Erebus and his men.
Coincidentally, Mr. X received an important update from Dr. Erebus.
He was informed that the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild were fakes.
Instead, they were both made up of actors who dressed up in costumes with the goal of intimidating Diviniteria.
After conducting a series of investigations, Dr. Erebus concluded that the two groups were nothing more than legends that weren’t real. After all, they consisted of nothing but impostors.
Evidently, Dr. Erebus had returned immediately upon learning that their headquarters was under attack.
Based on what Dr. Erebus had said, Erudia had known all along that the Lab of Gods feared the Ecclesiastic Order and Esoteric Guild.
That was the reason why they put on such an act.
On top of that, Dr. Erebus also discovered that Forlevia’s technique was created by herself, and she was never actually a student of a cleric.
What? The Ecclesiastic Order and Esoteric Guild are fake? However, didn’t some of the soldiers from the alliance use a giant crossbow to kill the four Destroyers? How can they be impostors too? However, come to think of it, no one has seen who the perpetrator was despite the killings. Could our comrades have been killed by humans?
Could they really have been from the Ecclesiastic Order or the Esoteric Guild? No, it’s not certain. There’s a possibility that some high-tech machine is operating the giant crossbow. Or perhaps, there’s some other explanation for it. If it really were the fighters from the two factions, they would have appeared from the beginning instead of sniping from the shadows. In that case, my judgment was wrong. They weren’t waiting for Diviniteria and the Defenders of the Galaxy to battle it out. It was a mistake to think that. After all, they weren’t able to attack at all.
Holding that thought in mind, he knew something was amiss.
Dr. Erebus’ explanation served to confirm his suspicions that the two factions never existed at all. Consequently, they had fallen deep into a trap set by Erudia.
