Bai Yi furrowed her brow, feeling a bit insecure about her perception results.

In her perception, the humans in those settlements seemed like impoverished, destitute workers, frail in body and with weak life energy.

Although those Transcendents appeared somewhat better, in relation to their Extraordinary Rank, their physical strength was almost nonexistent.

At most, it was only at the level of normal humans.

To put it bluntly, a 1st Rank, or even some 2nd Tier Transcendents from this world, might not even be able to defeat the ordinary humans in the Lower City District of Witch City!

Those ordinary humans have been physically enhanced by the nourishment of the mothership over the years and have occasionally learned some melee techniques, making them definitely stronger than the Low-tier Transcendents in her perception.

With this doubt in mind, Bai Yi established a connection with the surrounding vegetation and once again performed teleportation, crossing this man-made oasis to reach the core area.

Upon seeing the city in the oasis, Bai Yi felt that part of her doubts had been answered.

Because what was in front of her wasn’t any advanced magic building, nor a modernized city, but rather...

A medieval city with walls built of rough stone and dirt, looking incredibly "classical" in style.

"A civilization capable of extraterrestrial colonization, how could its cities fall into such a state of disrepair..."

The first thing Bai Yi thought upon seeing this wasn’t that she was lucky to encounter a weak civilization, but rather she began to suspect if this was a trap set by some powerful civilization.

After all, it was a bit too abnormal, almost like telling her a developed country couldn’t even afford food for its people...

Oh, well, that actually might be possible...

Ahem, it’s like someone able to enter a PhD program but unaware of the most basic knowledge of their field, it’s just so suspicious!

But since she had already come here, searching for information shouldn’t be difficult at all?

Superpower wove numerous Fei Wen, and the dark Fungus Blanket surged like a torrent, merging into the ground and rapidly spreading underground into the distance. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

After all, this still belonged to the territory of another civilization.

Even if it seemed fragile and weak, since it already possessed cross-world technology that didn’t belong to the surface-level civilization, it at least demonstrated a certain specialty.

If she were to directly use superpower on a large scale, it would be quite disrespectful.

"You, along with the Fei Wen and others, are in charge of the surrounding intelligence, while I directly seek the powerhouse of this city!"

Bai Yi commanded Lunning behind her.

High and low tiers are always the easiest places to gather intelligence.

Lunning just nodded and proficiently contacted the Fungus Blanket while beginning to make a wide range of reconnaissance using her perception of Light.

In comparison, although her abilities could achieve similar feats, in a city lacking vegetation, superpower lacked sufficient concealment.

In contrast, Lunning’s abilities didn’t cause too much abnormality, with better reconnaissance effects, making them more suited for such wide-ranging surveillance.

It seems, after half a year of study on Academy Star, the results were quite good.

Looking at Lunning’s professional demeanor, it was hard to tell she was an ordinary person unaware of Transcendence half a year ago.

Bai Yi nodded in approval and turned her gaze back towards the city, quickly locking onto the target with the highest energy response using superpower.

Teleportation, activate!

After wrapping herself in a gray mist from Yuktrahill to conceal her body, the activated teleportation directly brought her to the side of her target.

With her superpower-infused hand, she pressed firmly onto the target.

The gray mist covering her body immediately burst forth, accompanied by a paralyzing toxin powder.

The greatest effect of this gray mist was covering extreme energy reactions.

Through the extreme absorption of energy, it could affect most perception abilities.

Whether by capturing the leaked magic power of a target or through radar-like reflection sensing, the former could perfectly collect the scattered power, while the latter could absorb the detected waves directly.

Besides a few advanced detection methods, this mist was practically invisibility to most people!

After confirming she’d subdued all the humans around, Bai Yi began observing her surroundings, surprisingly discovering she was inside a familiar building.

In a spacious interior built with pillars and arches, two rows of benches were neatly arranged at the sides of a carpet.

Certain torches on the pillars and stained side windows provided interior lighting, faintly illuminating the frescoes on the dome.

"This is actually a church?

So this Transcendent is actually a priest?"

Bai Yi looked down at the collapsed Transcendent on the ground, initially unresponsive, but now seeing that he indeed wore a priest’s robe.

Not only him, but those she had stunned around him were also wearing priestly robes and had the presence of Transcendent power.

Bai Yi had numerous doubts in her mind, but now the information consolidated in her head, and it all pointed toward a single answer.

"Is the Extraordinary System of this world rooted in faith?

So these Transcendents belong to the Divine Believer System? No wonder they exhibit this behavior...

If they are God believers, it’s not surprising at all..."
