Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 94: Chapter 93, I underestimated you guys

Watching the armed workers who were supposed to act as bombs to hinder her actions collapse around her without a single explosion, Georgette felt overwhelmed with gratitude towards Gu Hang.

She had seen more powerful spiritual energy users before, many in fact.

In her opinion, Mr. Gu’s spiritual energy was excellent, but that was about it; he was not at the level of a master.

Yet today, the spiritual energy control he displayed was enough to amaze anyone.

That method that could sever the sorcerers’ extension of spiritual energy was truly magnificent!

It was Georgette’s first encounter with such spiritual energy abilities. Her understanding of spiritual energy wasn’t profound, but she saw Mr. Gu’s actions as decisive.

And she, of course, wasn’t going to squander the opportunity created by Mr. Gu.

She had already sprinted to a position where she could see the Cult leader.

The sight of the Divine Envoy wearing a grey robe and being extremely obese made Georgette feel sick.

Her bomb gun fired two bullets at her, barely repelled by the Storm Shield.

Gu Hang had the ability to weaken the Storm Shield, aiding Georgette’s two bullets to directly attempt to assassinate the cult Divine Envoy. But he did not bother to do so.

His most important task now was to intercept the sorcerers’ signal to detonate the corpse bombs, and not a single one could slip through. Interfering with the Storm Shield was considered superfluous, unnecessary.

After all, it would only let that fat woman Divine Envoy live for two more seconds.

Incensed, the Battle Nun had arrived right before her. The “Sacred Golden Halberd” was raised high!

The Shadow Wind Envoy’s face showed terror. She tried to unleash a gust of hurricane energy in front of her to blow the Battle Nun away, but after the sorcery took form, it was merely a breeze.

At such a close range, the nun’s ability to suppress spiritual energy was fully utilized. The spells that were actively released were hindered by her, failing to have their intended effect.

Immediately after, the “Sacred Golden Halberd” came slashing down. The Storm Shield dissipated like real air; following that, the Shadow Wind Envoy’s sinful and ugly body was cleaved from head to toe, vertically split into two halves.

…

The greatest threat had died, but that did not mean everything was over.

Theoretically, as long as a single sorcerer nearby was still alive, the danger persisted.

The Battle Nun understood this. After slaying the strongest grey-robed cult leader, she didn’t pause for half a moment and immediately targeted the ordinary Blue-Robed Sorcerers nearby.

One shot from her bomb gun meant one life lost.

At the same time, the soldiers who were in the process of retreating, along with six other nuns, turned back and joined the fight.

During this process, Gu Hang’s figure was always floating in mid-air.

The soldiers in battle occasionally looked up, gazing at their governor with eyes full of reverence.

They didn’t quite understand what Mr. Gu had done, but through the messages conveyed by their officers, through the encouragement shouts of the battling nuns, they still knew that just now, the situation was extremely critical and Mr. Gu had saved everyone’s life.

The Battle Nuns also frequently looked up.

They knew a bit more about what had just happened, and their gaze at the moment was even brighter.

Gu Hang, flying in the sky, could feel the gazes from below.

However, he did not pay too much attention to them.

Half of his focus was now on the battlefield, remaining vigilant for any signals indicating corpses being triggered to explode. Although the fat Divine Envoy had died, hence no one could activate all the Storm Bombs at once, scattered detonations by those Blue-Robed Sorcerers were still a possibility. Since Gu Hang was already there, he intended to prevent them from succeeding as much as possible.

As for the other half of his focus, it was spent pondering over the entire situation.

The infiltration of Revival City by the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect was more severe than he had anticipated.

After taking over Revival City, a plethora of debuffs related to the current condition of the city had popped up on his system interface. Among them, there was one called “Cult Rampant”, but this was categorized as ‘moderately decrease benevolence income’, which was negligible compared to the numerous ‘significantly decrease’ and ‘greatly decrease’ debuffs above it.

For this reason, Gu Hang had slightly overlooked this issue.

Even before, when the Alliance Government, under his pressure, had conducted a comprehensive investigation of the Cult, forcing members of the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect to launch an ambush to assassinate him, Gu Hang had even made a misjudgment: these people didn’t wield much influence in Revival City, and having been dealt with severely, they were resorting to desperate measures.

Gu Hang knew they still had forces in Revival City, but he thought they were inconsequential, nothing more than a minor nuisance.

And yet, they had managed to cause him such a huge problem here!

Even Battle Nuns, experts in combating Heretic Cults, almost capsized in this gutter.

“I underestimated you…”

Gu Hang thought to himself.

This was not a trifling matter, but a serious internal threat.

Especially the Storm Bombs implanted inside human bodies, this technology was perfect for terrorist attacks.

The Cult followers even concentrated people in the industrial district, preparing for a significant strike.

If they realized this approach wouldn’t work and decided to brainwash ordinary people to become human bombs in crowded places, factories, or on military routes, that would indeed be a significant headache.

Gu Hang realized that if he did not thoroughly deal with these people, he could not expect to live in peace.

A deadly animosity had been forged between the two sides.

As for how to catch them?

Firstly, finding clues and investigating was the standard method. During the fight, the Nuns had deliberately spared the lives of a few Blue-Robed Sorcerers.

Getting fanatical Cult members to talk was no easy feat, as they likely feared death little. However, Georgette also mentioned they had some special methods in this regard, and Gu Hang chose to trust her.

Secondly, there were some unconventional methods: a city-wide rigorous screening.

In this respect, it was perfect for Osenia to cooperate.

The outer city was the main concern since its residents were poor and lacked savings. After Lambert had taken control of the city’s food warehouses, Osenia was to immediately go to the outskirts to distribute food, preventing chaos caused by starving people while also encouraging them to return to their jobs and resume production as soon as possible.

Now, it’s just a matter of having Osenia include a Cult screening during the food distribution process.

But there were complications with this plan. Without technology to simply poke someone’s throat and determine if they were a Cult member, figuring out how to screen for Cult followers was indeed troublesome.
