"Candlelight enhanced to MAX." "Lighting system fully activated." "Description: all of D District is illuminated, leaving all beings nowhere to hide. At your will, enemies can lose sight of everything in their field of vision for 5 seconds." "This area upgrade is complete. Please wait at least 24 hours before performing the next upgrade."
Clang, clatter-
Gold bars fell one after another, piling into a mountain.
D District's lighting had been upgraded.
But all the gold Shen Ye had paid was returned.
So this was how the Holy Son was treated!
Shen Ye crouched down and picked up the gold bricks one by one, thinking that it was no wonder people liked finding themselves a godfather.
He was just about to offer his thanks when Maria suddenly spoke:
"It's here."
Here?
What was here?
Shen Ye froze for a moment, then quickly caught on.
"What kind of enemy is it?"
He asked.
"That piece of flesh-it was originally our Cross. After you threw it out, it developed consciousness. It landed on the deck just now."
Maria gazed into the void, as though she could see what was happening on the deck.
"There should be an S-Rank monster in the deck area," Shen Ye said.
Maria suddenly withdrew her gaze, closed her eyes, and said in a trembling voice:
"From now on, we mustn't observe it-it can sense all observers, then teleport straight to them."
"...Is it strong?" Shen Ye asked.
"Our Divinity Faction excels at uncovering information about enemies, but we can't uncover any information about it at all," Maria said.
"That's strange. How did it manage that?" Shen Ye said.
"I don't know-wait! The S-Rank monster in the deck area is dead!" Maria said.
Shen Ye briefly extended his senses.
Aboard the ship.
From somewhere far away
