My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 464 - 390: This Twilight Bishop Is Just Too Despicable!
Oh, you’re mistaken there. When the Twilight Bishop decided to return to the Dawn Continent, he had already prepared himself mentally and was very certain that the Twilight Saintess wasn’t dead.
"In any case, I’d like your help with the investigation," Wang Ming said. "Other agents of the Exploration Bureau have also put down their work and focused their attention on Bambul City."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Sui’s dueling device emitted a loud alert.
Shen Sui glanced down at the dueling device, his expression froze slightly.
"Is something happening?" Wang Ming, or rather the entire Exploration Bureau, was now highly sensitive to information about World No. 1. Seeing the alert on Shen Sui’s side, he immediately asked with concern.
Shen Sui temporarily shut off the dueling device. "It’s nothing, just a kid fishing. Oh, right, did you say the other agents from the Exploration Bureau have already headed to Bambul City?"
"Yes," Wang Ming replied. "However, the information we received was delayed, and the fastest Soul Card hasn’t reached Bambul City yet. Other countries’ agents have arrived first; there should already be many Soul Cards entering Bambul City now."
No wonder the dueling device was frantically alerting about Soul Card contacts. Suddenly, a large number of Soul Cards appeared in Bambul City.
Wang Ming was about to say something when his phone started vibrating violently. He answered the call and, after a few brief words, his expression changed dramatically.
"Yes, yes. I’m right next to them."
"The mission is canceled? Understood."
Wang Ming hung up the phone with a grim face.
Xinyuan Tanchun asked worriedly, "What happened?"
"The mission is canceled," Wang Ming did not hide it, "The headquarters have also withdrawn all agents who hadn’t arrived yet."
Shen Sui didn’t seem surprised at all.
"So, what’s going on?" Xinyuan Tanchun asked.
Wang Ming raised his head, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. "Just now, a giant sinkhole appeared in Bambul City, swallowing up the Twilight Saintess’s tomb entirely."
Everyone present fell silent.
Clearly, Wang Ming wasn’t planning to stay long; he gave Shen Sui a reminder before turning to leave.
"What do you mean by being wary of foreign influences?" Wang Ming’s advice left Shen Sui somewhat puzzled.
"The sinkhole in Bambul City caused most of the Soul Cards at the scene to suffer heavy casualties. Damn, it’s like they’ve seen a ghost," Wang Ming shook his head and said, "This World No. 1 is truly spooky."
With that, Wang Ming hurriedly left.
Not until Wang Ming’s figure disappeared into the night did Shen Sui retract his gaze.
After returning to the hotel, Shen Sui took Qishala back to the room.
As soon as they entered the room, Shen Sui couldn’t hold back any longer and opened the dueling device to vent:
["Alice!!! If you can’t catch the Fish King, don’t drain the entire Mine Cave Lake! You’ve drained all the groundwater in Bambul City!!! Martina’s teleportation bubbles aren’t meant to be used like this!!!"]
Yes, Alice was the culprit behind the sinkhole in Bambul City.
She was frustrated with not catching any fish and decided to use Martina’s bubbles to wildly drain the lake water.
The Mine Cave Lake in Bambul City connects to the city’s entire groundwater system. This draining resulted in the ground beneath Bambul City being emptied.
The main part of the city was barely stabilized thanks to the array Alice had placed, but other areas, including Vivian’s tomb, weren’t so lucky.
If it weren’t for Isabella’s quick reflexes, both Alice and she would have been buried underground.
This time, Alice’s actions directly wiped out the tombs of the Twilight Saintess and the Twilight Bishop.
[Ding! Your Soul Card Follower has gained a new form: Destroyer of the Earth Alice]
[Ding! Your Soul Card Follower has gained a new form: Tomb Raider Alice]
Seeing the two new forms of Alice, Shen Sui was left somewhat amused and exasperated.
An Alice with high levels indeed wasn’t causing trouble as easily as before, but her slightest action now destroys a city. Isn’t that a bit too powerful?
If Alice didn’t have the habit of setting up the [Twilight Saintess’s Guardian] array every time she reached a city, the entire Bambul City might have been taken down.
After this disastrous mess, it turned out that the ones who suffered the most were the Soul Cards sent by various countries to investigate the Twilight Bishop’s return incident, which was quite a hellish scenario.
In the real world, there were already few Life Card Masters choosing the Dawn Continent. Alice caused casualties at the City of Sin and the Error War, and now another catastrophe at the Bambul City sinkhole made her a true Soul Card slayer.
Shen Sui took several deep breaths, finally calming his mind.
Alice quickly awakened.
This disaster wasn’t particularly big nor small.
The apparent sinkhole only destroyed parts of the tomb; ordinary people weren’t affected at all. Even if some unlucky ones were affected, the Guardian Array absorbed the damage, transferring it all to Alice.
But the matter was absolutely significant, whether in the Dawn Continent or in the real world.
Bambul City, once known as Twilight City, experiencing such a major disaster, especially after the recent mysterious disappearance of three treasure boxes belonging to the Twilight Bishop from Bambul City, made it hard not to associate the events.
Along with the fact that Vivian and Claude’s tombs were destroyed in this sinkhole, it further indicates that this matter is closely linked to the Twilight Bishop Claude.
