Although Da Xia had already informed the Laini government, the Laini government was slow to react. First of all, they did not know the truth of the matter. Secondly, they only had nominal jurisdiction over Randa Province.
The true authority of Randar Province was in the hands of Governor Bethany and the Bai Clan. Needless to say, the relationship between the Bai Clan and the Asura Clan was very close. If Bethany knew about the current situation of the Sorcerer Temple, it was hard to say what he would do.
Asura was Bethney's biggest backer. If his backer suddenly fell, who could guarantee that he would not go crazy?
The most terrifying thing was the native believers!
Therefore, the top officials of Da Xia were most worried about the safety of the local citizens besides the expedition team.
Before the aircraft carrier strike group arrived, Zuo Yi was the only reliable force in Dyson City!
"Tell them to come to the Witch God Temple now."
After Zuo Yi heard this, he said to Wu Yongjian without hesitation, "I will ensure everyone's safety."
Wu Yongjian hesitated. "Won't that put too much pressure on you?"
He really had no choice but to rely on Zuo Yi.
"No problem."
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if there are more or less of them. Go and inform them to hurry over."
"Okay!"
Wu Yongjian said decisively, "We will keep in touch."
After ending the call, Zuo Yi stood up and fully expanded the spiritual net. It quickly extended down the path to the Witch God Temple, the long stairs that the locals called the "Stairway to Heaven".
Asura would activate the summoning circle for the blood sacrifice tonight, so he had sent people to the foot of the mountain early to prevent the believers from going up to worship.
At this time, there were some security guards with weapons on the Stairway to Heaven. They obviously did not know what had happened in the temple and were still guarding their posts.
After locking on all the targets, Zuo Yi immediately stood up and said to Zhao Yuanyuan, "Stay here and don't wander around. I'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Yi's figure instantly disappeared and rushed down the Stairway to Heaven like an arrow.
The security guards stationed on the stairway fainted one by one without realizing it.
Zuo Yi rushed to the foot of the mountain and returned to the entrance of the temple in less than two minutes!
All the "nails" had been removed by him.
Zuo Yi sat down again and maintained the coverage of the spiritual web. He was like a spider entrenched in the middle of the web. Not even the slightest tremor on the web could escape his observation.
In fact, there were many people in the Sorcerer Goddess Temple other than the main temple he was in.
However, as long as those people did not come over, Zuo Yi did not plan to take the initiative to attack. That was because maintaining the existence of the Spiritual Web required a lot of mental power, and it would be a great burden for him to cast Mental Deterrence frequently.
In addition, if the news had been leaked, it would have been leaked by now. There was no need to waste any more effort.
Now, Zuo Yi only needed to guard the passage up the mountain and the main temple until reinforcements arrived.
The first batch of Dyson City expatriates appeared at the foot of the mountain an hour later.
There were twenty to thirty of them.
Zuo Yi sensed their presence through the spiritual web and immediately transmitted his thoughts to them. "Come up quickly."
The expatriates who were dragging their luggage were shocked and doubtful, but they still followed Zuo Yi's instructions and climbed up the stairway.
As the stairway was very long, many of them were exhausted halfway up.
Zuo Yi did not help them. His mission was to ensure their safety, and he had no obligation to carry their luggage.
When the expatriates climbed to the front of the Sorcerer Goddess Temple and saw the floor full of unconscious people, they were all stunned!
Looking at Zuo Yi who was drinking tea in front of the door, they felt even more strange.
Zuo Yi said, "Go inside and find a place to settle down. Don't worry about anything else."
"Sir."
A middle-aged man who was sweating profusely asked, "Can you tell me what happened?"
When he received the notice earlier, he could not believe that the embassy would ask him to take his family to the Sorcerer Goddess Temple.
Although Dyson City was backward, the situation had always been stable. Nothing had happened recently. Why would something suddenly happen and possibly endanger the safety of the expatriates?
But after confirming the authenticity of the call, he immediately packed his luggage and drove his family here.
The scene in front of him made the middle-aged man's heart palpitate!
"It's better if you don't know."
Zuo Yi said, "Go inside and wait. Don't worry about your safety. Someone will come to pick you up when the time comes."
His voice was not loud, but in the ears of the middle-aged man and the others, it was full of unquestionable authority.
The expatriates looked at each other and obediently followed Zuo Yi's instructions and went inside the temple.
They had just stepped in when the rumbling sound of rotors came from afar. A helicopter rapidly approached the main temple under the cover of the night.
The helicopter quickly lowered its altitude and turned on the spotlights at the nose. A bright beam of light shone in front of the temple.
It shone on Zuo Yi's body.
The rotors brought about a whistling wind. Two rocket launchers could be seen on the left and right sides of the helicopter. The hatch on the left side was wide open and a heavy machine gun was set up.
It was an armed helicopter!
This was obviously not reinforcements from Da Xia, but the military forces stationed in Dyson City!
Bethney must have known that something had happened at the Sorcerer Goddess Temple. Since he could not contact Asura, he sent a helicopter to investigate the situation.
The pilot of the armed helicopter was probably stunned when he saw the scene in front of the temple.
The beam of light shone back and forth on Zuo Yi, and the muzzle of the heavy machine gun was always aimed at him.
“Getoutofmysight！”
In response to the hostile actions of the other party, Zuo Yi directly shouted for them to get out of his sight!
Although the rotors were very loud, his voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone in the helicopter.
"Da da!"
The machine gunner was annoyed and immediately pulled the trigger. The heavy machine gun immediately spewed out a string of flames!
Zuo Yi did not dodge. Instead, he threw a punch upward.
"Boom!"
The tyrannical fist force shook the atmosphere, producing a thunderous explosion. All the incoming machine gun bullets seemed to have hit an invisible iron wall, instantly exploding into powder.
The condensed fist did not reduce in power and fiercely bombarded the helicopter from below.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a muffled sound, half of the body of the armed helicopter was dented. It immediately lost control and emitted thick smoke as it spun down the mountain.
In an instant, it hit the hillside and exploded. In an instant, flames soared into the sky.
Zhao Yuanyuan, who was next to Zuo Yi, was completely dumbfounded!
