The clothes suddenly sprang up from the muck and sprinted towards the fallen woods.

“Come over here, where do you think you are going?” Mo Fan used his Telekinesis to drag the clothes back.

“Spare me!” the man covered in mud cried.

“He must be guilty. He started begging before he saw us,” Zhao Manyan said.

Zhao Manyan flicked his finger. A small droplet appeared above the guy.

The droplet suddenly burst open, and lots of water poured down on the guy. He was almost knocked over by the force.

The guy turned out to be a young lad in his twenties. He looked completely lost, as if he had just witnessed something horrifying.

“It looks like we have found our witness,” Mo Fan commented.

“Mm, but he’s a little unstable. Let’s bring him back to the city,” Mu Bai said.

—

Jade Bay City was the largest city in Crete. It was located right at the center, with lots of bays and harbors. These places along the coastline had become popular attractions. The number of tourists would peak in April and May every year.

It was still a little cold in March, but most residents on the islands and the cities were on alert after the terrifying incident that had befallen Green Sprouts City.

The Knights did not treat Mo Fan seriously. Mo Fan told Poseidon he found a survivor, but Poseidon did not think much of it. There were other survivors around. He was only following the order from his superior to bring them here. It was their business on how they dealt with the Tyrant t.i.tans.

—

Jade Bay City had constructed many new sentry towers with Mages on patrol across the coastline. They would sound the alarm if they spotted anything unusual.

Mo Fan went looking for a place to eat. He was seriously not used to the European cuisine. However, the young lad who was mentally unstable immediately regained his senses after smelling the smoked meat.

The survivor felt a lot better after filling his stomach. He even picked his teeth with his fingernails.

“That scared the s.h.i.+t out of me. Luckily, you guys weren’t the t.i.tans!” Harper exclaimed.

“Did you see the t.i.tan?” Mo Fan asked.

“Of course, it was right in front of me. It’s…it’s as tall as Mount Tibur. Its footprint is as big as a basketball court. For G.o.d’s sake, why does a creature like that even exist? If they can grow to that size, what’s the meaning of our existence?” Harper blurted out.

“Don’t we have Mages?” Mu Bai said.

“Mages? You’re kidding, Mages will never beat the creature I saw. It was just…it was like an ancient demon. We are just ordinary people!” Harper shuddered.

“Just ignore if it’s a G.o.d or we are humans, can you tell us what you know? We are here to hunt the Tyrant t.i.tan,” Mo Fan told him.

“Hunt the Tyrant t.i.tan? Hunt? You are the most ridiculous Mage I’ve met!” Harper yelled. He was so loud that the whole restaurant could hear him.

A few people in crimson outfits approached them with unfriendly faces.

They gathered around the table. A bald man with a bandana walked up to Mu Bai and spat onto his plate.

Mu Bai, Mo Fan, and Zhao Manyan were dumbfounded.

What the heck? He must be out of his mind!

“Leave Jade Bay City at once, you filthy Mages!” the man said, before they all strutted out of the restaurant.

Confused, Zhao Manyan asked as he watched them leave, “Are you so weak that you can’t even beat up those thugs?”

Mu Bai took a minute to collect his thoughts. He was just enjoying his meal. Why did they come and ruin it?

“I’ll deal with them. It’s my specialty anyway!” Mo Fan rose to his feet and cracked his knuckles.

“I didn’t sense any presence of magic from them. Don’t overdo it,” Mu Bai reminded him.

“Hey, what do you think you are doing? Are you seriously trying to beat up the people of the Black Church? You are asking for trouble doing that here in Crete!” Harper exclaimed.

“Black Church? What the heck is that? Are they powerful?” Mo Fan demanded.

“(Sigh), I guess I should repay you all for helping me… Come, I’ll bring you to my grandmother’s old house and tell you what I saw, but you must not mess with the Black Church. I still want to live here!” Harper said quickly.

“Mo Fan, forget it, let’s hear what he has to say. I have already lost my appet.i.te,” Mu Bai agreed.

Harper only stayed at his grandmother’s house every summer. The house was on a hill close to the beach. It might be old, but they still earned a lot from renting it to tourists.

The house was given to him after his grandmother pa.s.sed away. He earned ample food and clothing just by doing some manual labor.

“Look, that’s Jade Sea, the most popular attraction in summer here. Normally, I could earn a lot by renting this place out, but I don’t think there’ll be any tourists this year after what happened,” Harper sighed.

“Don’t you worry, there are billions of people in the world. Many people like looking for trouble, too. Whenever something happens, the thrill-seekers would definitely be there,” Zhao Manyan said.

“I hope that’s the case… treat yourself at home. I doubt you can find a place to stay for the night,” Harper said.

“I don’t really understand. Who are we up against?”

“Those people at the restaurant?”

Harper smiled and shook his head. He sat on a pile of hay on the ground and said, “And you call yourself Mages, when you don’t even know what the Black Church is?”

“We only know about the Black Vatican,” Mo Fan said.

“The Black Church and the Black Vatican… mm, they are basically the same, but the difference is that the Black Church is legally protected in Europe and America. Weren’t there a lot of disasters around the world in recent years? The Black Church has been around since the early days. They wors.h.i.+p the ancient G.o.ds and believe humans aren’t supposed to practice magic. Mages are only increasing the burden on our world. The energy we take from nature will only provoke the G.o.ds and demons, thus the G.o.ds and demons are punis.h.i.+ng humans by sending the demon creatures!” Harper told them.
