Sacred Souls: Genesis

Chapter 506: Chapter 495: Control (1st Update)

Jiang Qiao’s Fureya was not injured; the real reason the Holy Spirit team forfeited was that Thorne disappeared.

Although the Four Knights were nominally Thorne’s teammates, in actuality, Jiang Qiao also intended for the Four Knights to monitor Thorne’s every move on the Path to Ascension.

However, Jiang Qiao ultimately underestimated Thorne’s ability to escape; the Hornet Knight had been tracking him across Biland Island, but an hour later, Jiang Qiao learned from the Hornet Knight that they had “lost track of Thorne.”

This female knight wanted to apologize to Jiang Qiao, who casually punished her to go learn a random craft and then shifted his focus to where Thorne might have gone.

Combining the intelligence brought back by the Hornet Knight, it was deduced that Thorne had hidden inside the Ascension Tower.

What did he intend to do by hiding on the Path to Ascension? This thought emerged in Jiang Qiao’s mind, and he checked the access he had to the Path to Ascension.

The access Thorne had provided still existed; not only entry but also invasion permissions were available.

In the challengers of the Path to Ascension, Thorne’s figure was nowhere to be found, which meant that Thorne was now hiding in some corner of the Path to Ascension without making any real moves.

The invasion by the Oblivion Legion had also stopped during this period.

What exactly did he want to do?

What could I do?

Jiang Qiao pondered these two questions, but the conclusion was that there were no answers.

The Path to Ascension was not a domain Jiang Qiao could control; if Thorne hid inside the Path to Ascension without taking up the challenge, Jiang Qiao could simply not find him.

If the Path to Ascension were threatened by the Oblivion Legion, Jiang Qiao still had another potential ally, the sharpshooter Alma.

The feedback from ‘Cream without Charge’ also stated that everything was proceeding according to plan; now, all Jiang Qiao could do was to heighten alertness and wait for the end of the Holy Spirit League.
