After the incident, the Dole family did not come to question Baiyi. They probably chose to forgive Baiyi and accepted his explanation, thinking that it was just an accident during a magical experiment. After all, Baiyi did not have to do such a thing, right?
After further research, Baiyi discovered that the teleportation function of the War God's Sword would consume a special kind of energy. That energy was very unique; it did not seem to be the energy that one would find in a normal realm. It was the energy that came from the War God himself.
This energy would recover on its own after it was used up, but it would take a long time. According to Baiyi's estimation, it would take a whole day to recover enough energy for one teleportation.
At the same time, the teleportation function was not limitless. Baiyi waited until the next day, when the energy had recovered, and he tried to teleport to the palace's treasury. However, he failed. He still did not know the exact conditions of the teleportation function, so he needed more time to think about it.
All in all, the War God was quite generous. The teleportation was silent, and it could be activated very quickly. It did not require any preparation, and there were no spatial ripples. It was a godly tool for robbers. Although the War God did not allow Baiyi to use his sword to kill, he had given him a more convenient function.
As for the War God's motives, why should he care so much about it? Just think of it as a reward for saving the realm.
On the morning of the third day, the City Lord's Mansion announced that the crisis had been resolved. All the enemies had been eliminated, and the crisis could be considered to have been successfully resolved. Although the number of casualties and property losses were still being calculated, people could finally walk out of their homes.
Mia and Tisdale could not wait to go out and see if there was anything they could do to help. Baiyi could not go with them as he had to stay at home to fix the wall and the turf. However, he did not stop them. He only asked them to bring the hammerhead shark along and not to be separated from each other during the journey.
Mia picked up the hammerhead shark plushie from her bed. She had been sleeping with Attie for the past two days, so the plushie's spot had been taken by Attie, and it had been neglected for two days. It was not Mia's fault, though. Who would want to hug a weird doll like Attie, who would want to hug a kitten-like doll?
"Come to think of it, Sharkie behaved very strangely last time," Mia suddenly said. "Previously, when Sharkie was moving, he was very friendly to me. But last time, when Big Sis Dale was around, he was only nice to Big Sis Dale. Is it because Big Sis Dale was the one who gave him to me?"
"That's not true. It's always around you," Tisdale defended herself.
That's because your teacher's teacher likes Tisdale more! Baiyi thought to himself as he listened to the conversation between the two girls.
After sending Attie out to look for some grass seeds, Baiyi was left alone in the mansion. He used his Earth Magic to repair Attie's room and at the same time, he discussed with the Voidwalkers about the secret behind the incident.
Thaas had told him a lot of information. One of the most shocking pieces of information was that Thaas did not have a subordinate relationship with the Godsfall cult. Rather, they were in cahoots, using each other to their advantage.
Baiyi had always thought that the Godsfall cult worshiped Thaas and had been plotting to help him escape. Now, it seemed that things were not as simple as he thought.
The Godsfall cult had only found him through Rodhart five years ago. According to Archbishop Nicholas, Rodhart was already at the peak of his power in the church at that time. He controlled the entire court, so it was only natural that he found an opportunity to establish a connection with Thaas's heart.
After a series of plots and plots, Thaas was successfully reborn. In the end, he was killed by Baiyi with a single slap.
Thaas did not know much about Rodhart. Although he had willingly given up his body to Baiyi, he did not leave any memories in the body, and Baiyi did not manage to get anything out of him. At that time, Thaas, who was in a hurry to escape, did not delve deeper into the matter. He only cooperated with the Godsfall cult and provided power to the imprints.
Yes, even the imprints were not given by him. He was only responsible for providing power to the imprints, acting as a power bank. However, the Godsfall cult managed to find many of his old subordinates and gained his trust. That was why Thaas was willing to become a power bank.
Of course, the Abyss Lord had also been careful. He had given the Fallen Knights a lesser amount of power, while the Abyss Lord had given the Fallen Knights a greater amount of power. That was why Baiyi had seen the Fallen Knights perform so differently from the demons.
When Thaas was completely freed, the cooperation between the two sides would come to an end. After that, they would no longer interfere with each other.
That was why Godsfall had spent so much effort, even sacrificing a high-level pawn like Rodhart, to release Thaas. They still had no clue as to who the real mastermind behind the scenes was. Thaas's exact words on this point were as follows:
"I can feel that there is a real god behind them, a mysterious evil god that even I do not know of. A god that even an existence like you must look up to."
"There is no existence that I look up to." Baiyi's reply was overbearing.
Currently, the only thing he knew about the Godsfall cult was that they had infiltrated the Church into a sieve. It was no wonder that they were able to expand to such a large scale under the Church's nose. Their main target was still the Church.
As for whether or not their real purpose was to overthrow the true God as the junior member had said, it was hard to say. These cults were all good at deceiving people. What they preached was better than singing, and there was no value in using it as a reference.
"I wonder what kind of attitude this huge cult has toward the Void …" The Thane said in the Void, "They are a threat to us, but they also have things that we want, like Soul Banishment."
The cult had dominated the Judiciary Court for many years, so they must have taken the Soul Banishment technique for themselves.
"Actually, we don't have to worry too much about it. Now that we have twenty percent of our power, we don't have to be afraid of them playing tricks. In the face of absolute power, tricks are meaningless." Baiyi's attitude was quite optimistic. After all, if one's fist was big enough, there was nothing to be afraid of.
No matter how scary the evil god was, there was still a true God who controlled the Laws above him, right?
However, the only benefit of the Godsfall cult's actions to the Voidwalkers was that they had completely abolished the Judiciary Court. Now, the institution could not even protect itself, let alone hunt down the violators. The Church was bound to face a great purge, and for the time being, it would be in chaos.
This was the perfect situation for the Voidwalkers to fish in troubled waters.
