Chapter 714: Chapter 704 Holy War

After leaving Illiyat, Wen Wen arrived at the door of Dr. Feng’s cell and curiously observed the doctor curled up into a ball.

At this moment, Dr. Feng didn’t look as sinister and venomous as before but instead seemed pitiful.

However, Wen Wen still wanted to conduct a test to see the extent of the torture Dr. Feng had endured to determine the level of punishment in the Punishment Room.

He first took out a Wolf Fang Teaching Whip and then tapped the iron bars of the cell door with it.

"Hey, look here, look here."

Dr. Feng looked up and as soon as he saw the Wolf Fang Teaching Whip, his face changed, and he shrank into the corner in horror, reaching behind as if covering something.

Wen Wen scratched his head, wondering what exactly this guy had gone through.

Next, Wen Wen sequentially displayed ropes, whips, branding irons, steel needles, and other "goodies," each causing a severe reaction from Dr. Feng.

Halfway through the test, Wen Wen grew bored; obviously, Dr. Feng had been broken by the Punishment Room.

To turn a superpower user of the Upper Sequence Level who was against humanity into what he is now, the punishments of the Punishment Room must be extraordinary, and such a place must be used with caution... well, must be utilized more often.

Wen Wen, observing the monsters within the Sanctuary, said to himself with a smile: "If it’s so effective, then it would indeed be a waste to only put Dr. Feng inside."

Feeling Wen Wen’s gaze, all the monsters felt a chill rise within their hearts.

That feeling was like when a teacher stands at the podium and arbitrarily picks a lucky student to call their parents...

After looking around, Wen Wen began to move his hands, and one after another, the monsters disappeared within the Sanctuary.

There were more than one or two monsters in the Sanctuary who were uncooperative like Illiyat or had committed heinous crimes like Dr. Feng...

After sending those lucky monsters to the Punishment Room, Wen Wen left the Disaster Area with his hands behind his back, and all the monsters heaved a sigh of relief.

Upon leaving the Disaster Area, Wen Wen first used the Sanctuary’s authorization to call a Containment Officer to discuss matters at the Sanctuary.

This Containment Officer was the buck-toothed old security guard Feng Baosheng Wen Wen had recruited earlier at the old inn, who had the ability to see through the goodness and evilness of people’s hearts.

Afterward, Wen Wen also called in three Central Administrators for a brief meeting.

From now on, Feng Baosheng would work in the Sanctuary during the day to determine the sins of the monsters detained, and based on their sins, decide the duration of their stay in the Punishment Room.

For old man Feng Baosheng, this was quite a nice job, so he readily agreed.

...

After a busy night, the next morning, Wen Wen emerged from the Sanctuary and appeared in the bathroom of the hotel arranged by the Hunters Association in Caiyun Port.

He relieved himself, washed his face, brushed his teeth, and opened the door ready to greet the new day.

Wen Wen was still in Caiyun Port City for only one reason, and that was to wait and see if the blue Cicadas would appear again.

However, he wouldn’t just wait rigidly in the hotel; instead, he planned to wander around the interesting places in Caiyun Port.

For example, Yuan’s Small Kitchen in the city area, where the chefs were of District Treasure Level, or that large-scale horror house in Menxia Province, famous all over the region, which was highly praised online, and whose owner had even helped the local police solve several murder cases...

But just as Wen Wen was about to leave, the Ranger Terminal buzzed to life and, glancing at the information sent by the Association, his eyes gradually widened.

Just last night, fourteen cities across Menxia Province and twenty-seven churches suffered attacks!

The attackers at each church were all those pale blue cicadas!

"Just as I suspected, there isn’t only one of those things, and the incident this time is probably not simple," Wen Wen mused.

Wen Wen continued to flip through photos of the incident on his Ranger Terminal. Not a single ordinary person at the scenes survived, and the sights were exceedingly bloody and violent.

However, most of the cicadas were found clinging to the crosses in the churches, seemingly feasting on something, which was very similar to the situation here.

"Without a doubt, this is a large-scale attack on Creation Church, and those cicadas are not real creatures but something condensed from someone’s or a monster’s strength..."

"Judging from its behavioral pattern, it seems to be trying to take something from Creation Church... Faith?"

Only something with incredible audacity or vast powers would dare to directly seize faith from Creation Church. It seems we can’t expect any peace for a while.

Wen Wen rubbed his hair, called over Tao Qingqing, and prepared to leave Caiyun Port City. He needed to visit another attack site to try and find those cicadas.

The assault of these insects on the churches was nothing less than a provocation to Creation Church, and Glory Church, a violent arm of the Creation Church, would not stand idly by.

Those cicadas managed to attack fourteen cities and more than twenty churches simultaneously, meaning they were surely not merely Upper Sequence Level monsters. Wen Wen even doubted they were of the True Sequence, but to call them Catastrophe Level seemed somewhat weak.

If Glory Church were to underestimate such entities, it might be difficult to eradicate them, and the situation could potentially escalate into a province-wide war in Menxia.

Moreover, Menxia Province was not only troubled by these blue cicadas—a second report had come in alongside the church attacks.

Near Xihong City in Menxia Province, an unexplained gathering of demon Yaos was taking place, rapidly turning the area into a ghastly nightmare. The local Hunters Association had been utterly defeated three days prior, and the reinforcements sent by the Menxia Province Hunters Association were barely holding on, currently pleading for aid from the Capital District...

Wen Wen let out a long sigh: "Troubles abound this autumn..."

Then he knocked on the door next door and said, "Join me on a trip to the neighboring city. More churches nearby have been attacked, and it seems we won’t find peace for some time."

...

In Haibei Province, Yan Xiu, who had just gotten out of bed in Lin Lu’s house, received a phone call.

Right after the call, he immediately donned his white long gown and began gathering his things—the call was from Glory Church.

Lin Lu frowned and asked, "Where are you heading this early in the morning?"

"It’s a call from Glory Church, asking me to head to Menxia Province as quickly as possible. And it’s not just me; at least half the strength of Glory Church in the Capital District must immediately head to Menxia Province."

"Did the call tell you what for?" Lin Lu inquired.

Yan Xiu fell silent for two seconds before saying to Lin Lu, "The call only mentioned two words..."

"Holy war!"

Lin Lu was taken aback. Each time Glory Church had launched a holy war in history, it had been a bloody and brutal affair. Why suddenly a holy war now?

"This is definitely a big deal, and I might just take the opportunity to die over there."

Lin Lu understood what Yan Xiu meant; he wanted to use this major event of Glory Church as a chance to fake his death and then completely free himself from the shackles of Glory Church!
