In less than five minutes, we break past numerous blockades from the members of that religious order.

After she took care of the first group who blocked us, Zerina stayed outside and stood at the bow of the flying ship, breaking open any blockade that we had encountered, killing those brave enough to get in our way. That's enough to instill fear among them.

Every blockade consisted of natives. Among them, a select few had hints of Dark Energy in their body and they wore black robes. In other words, they're Corrupteds who most likely willingly became one.

They're stronger than most red-robed figures, true. However, they're still Mortals. Moreover, being a Corrupted, they all looked vicious on the outside, with their life force seeping out of their bodies

Seeing how every blockade consisted mostly of red robes, the number of Rank 5 Mortals in this world was overwhelming. It's like most of their troops were elites that if they send them on the World of Barbarians, it would be like a swarm of Emperor Realm descended.

Even if they're not Transcendents, the destruction they would've caused would be akin to a handful of Transcendents.

Thinking about it, the method they were using to raise one's UPL was somewhat similar to my Support Bonus.

They're not necessarily at the 5th realm of their Pathway but the bonus stats they were receiving allowed them to reach that.

Perhaps, that was also what happened to those five Transcendents who ambushed us… Similar to us, they hadn't finished their Mortal Pathways yet.

Among those five, only the golden-robed opened his Domain. And among these red-robed figures, none of them had a Domain Skill.

I'm curious about who provided them those bonus stats. It looked more overpowered than mine... Counting every robed figure we encountered ever since arriving in this world, there's already close to 500.

It couldn't be a skill from a Unique System, right? Besides, there's that Dark Energy poison that could be triggered anytime, killing them.

It also couldn't be a Magical Spell of this world. If I have to guess there's a device or a formation. Moreover, it's most likely not as easy as adding their names to a system list.

"Stop! Why are you attacking us? Who are you?!"

Two minutes more and someone blocked us again.

This flying ship or rather Zerina already made a trail of bodies behind us.

Those citizens below who were residing inside this Magic Kingdom were now cowering in their luxurious houses when they saw how it rained dead bodies of the supposed Elites of this world.

This time, the one who's blocking us also wore a white robe. His Transcendent Aura was emanating from his body. However, that's negligible for Zerina.

Her Pillar Guardians alone could defeat this white-robed Transcendent when it resulted in a conflict.

Instead of answering her inquiry, Zerina stood to the side while I emerged from inside of the ship.

Leianne's plan to lure out to those in hiding involved showing off our strength as well as… pretending to be one of them.

As I calmly walked on and stood beside Zerina, I scanned this white-robed Transcendent from head to toe.

He's not any stronger than those four white-robed we previously encountered. The Source Energy inside him was still the Magical Energy.

Before his eyes, I nonchalantly took out the UPL Scanner and used it on him.

"W-why do you have that? Are you one of the… High Messenger?"

As expected, he recognized the UPL Scanner. Nonetheless, I delayed my answer as I activated the Scanner to check on his UPL.

"If you understand then shut up." Zerina glared at him and shoved her Transcendent Aura only to his direction. Upon feeling how much stronger the girl compared to him, he comically staggered backward with his knees rattling from fright. Even if he's a Transcendent himself, the difference between their UPL was more than 100.

The term High Messenger was included in the information Leianne managed to extract. It pointed to the Dark World Transcendents who descended not long ago.

They're the ones who brought that method to raise the natives' UPL and reach the threshold.

"High Messenger, is that how you call my kind here?"

I controlled my Flux Energy and had it take the form of the Level 2 Dark Energy.

As soon as he saw that, he immediately knelt down even when he's hovering in front of the flying ship.

After a while, his voice filled with reverence rang out followed by repentance. "Yes! I welcome the High Messenger and I apologize for blocking your way. If you don't mind, I can guide you to where the other fellow Messengers are located."

"A sensible one, at last. Go ahead. We're tired from our journey here as you kept on blocking us."

"My apologies, we were not informed of your arrival. May I ask where are the crew of this ship?"

"Dead."

There's no need to elaborate why they're dead. He would surely infer things and reach his own conclusion.

"..."

The white-robed Transcendent shut his mouth tight, flinched and shivered from the coldness of my voice. Afraid to reach the same fate, he stopped his inquiry as he turned around to guide us in.

While he was doing that, I observed his act thoroughly and was convinced that this guy was totally bought with my act.

The existence of Dark Energy was enough proof for him that I came from the same world as their Messengers.

He pulled out a square stone with engravings on its surface. Most likely a communication device. After reporting his findings, to whoever was the recipient of it, he continued guiding us in while being extra careful not to annoy me.

With this, Leianne's plan was going well.

As soon as we reached the gathering place of those Dark World Transcendents… It will be the time to end this farce.

In time, Zerina released her Transcendent Aura making the white-robed Transcendent sigh in relief.

And while the ship was slowly sailing above this Magical Kingdom. My Energy Senses scanned the ground and every citizen of this kingdom.

Compared to the outside where these members of that religious order were fighting in a life and death situation, the citizens here were living a carefree life as if what's happening outside the kingdom was a foreign and distant thing for them.

Nonetheless, they were all respectful to the individuals wearing green robes and blue robes that could be seen patrolling the streets.

Those who were frightened when Zerina was cutting down the red robes blocking our way were already back to normal as they all pointed to the white-robed Transcendent leading us in.

No matter how hard I think about it… The citizens of this Kingdom have a few screws loose.

Well, it's not like they'll become our problem.

We only needed to clean this world of the Dark World Transcendents and the Portal. Whatever path they would take in the future, it would be their decision.

In time, Zerina stood behind me like a subordinate. Fleur and the others also emerged from the cabin and did the same.

Since I'm the only one wielding the Dark Energy, they will be acting like my subordinates.

Well, it's not like our act will last but upon noticing four more strong Transcendents emerging from inside, the white-robed Transcendent gulped down and stopped looking back in fear to irritate me and my women.

At this moment. The Orb of Ailment was already clutched in my hand, filled with my Flux Energy.

Let's see how they will cope against us.
