Several minor followers of Lin Jiang were shot dead on the spot by the police, while Murphy and Dragon Armor managed to escape by merging with monsters.

However, their situation wasn't easy. As they escaped, five or six armed helicopters followed behind, their firepower fierce enough to penetrate the monsters' defense, leaving the pair at least shredded if not dead.

Colton said:

"Lin Jiang is hiding well, we haven't found any trace of him yet, but near the fire point in the northwest of Iside Mountains, surveillance cameras captured a target suspected to be Murphy."

"He should have used the forest fire to evade the pursuit of the armed helicopters."

Wu Chang nodded and said, "Alright, let's set today's fire extinguishing site in the northwest of Iside Mountains. Gather the people and head out to put out the fire!"

By the time True Self led everyone and the media to the northwest of the Iside Mountains, the main body had already reached the seaside.

The Cursed Dungeon lacked Erin's Divine Kingdom, and couldn't set up a powerful altar like in the Silent Route Plane to control the entire coastal area.

However, this time his ritual didn't need to create such a large commotion.

He spent three hours using Mystical Mastery to construct a complex Mystical Ceremony that could amplify Water Attribute Energy, gather moisture, and summon clouds and strong winds.

He drank a bottle of Enhanced Energy Activation Potion, waited for his energy to fully recover, then stood inside the Mystical Ceremony and activated it.

With the start of the ceremony, within a few breaths, the clear sky was covered with thick clouds.

The calm sea surface turned turbulent, waves crashing onto the shore, with the spray soaring into the sky, creating a large mist.

The mist swirled upward in the strong wind, forming a white vapor column connecting heaven and earth.

Wu Chang opened his eyes, pinched a spell with his fingers, and pointed upwards.

A torrential amount of Thunder Power surged out of his body, traveled along the white vapor column, and penetrated the dark clouds in the sky.

Within the black clouds, lightning and thunder raged, as if it were a mass of pollutants, expanding outward and turning the whole sky over the coast black.

Water Thunder, Summoning Thunder calls rain, summons wind and rain.

Endless moisture was drawn into the clouds, which, now filled with water vapor, became heavy and about to fall.

Looking skyward, it seemed as if the sky had lowered.

At this moment, it just needed a catalyst for the vapor in the clouds to turn into a downpour, but it wasn't the right time yet.

Besides summoning rain, Water and Thunder Technique could also call the wind.

With the transformation of his spell, a strong wind arose, pushing the heavy clouds toward Iside Mountain.

Clouds steadily formed from the coastal edge and were continuously driven toward Iside Mountain.

Residents located along the path of the moving dark clouds felt as if they didn't live in the real world but inside a giant box.

Now, it seemed as if someone was about to close the box's lid.

Unaware of what was happening, believing the apocalypse was upon them, the citizens of Sigef City witnessing the celestial phenomena began to pray devoutly, hoping for the Gods to forgive their sins.

They didn't know what sins they needed forgiveness for, but they sought forgiveness first.

In the northwest of the Iside Mountains, when the main body was setting up the Mystical Ceremony, True Self had already led people to the scene.

Under the guidance of professional stylists, they struck various poses for the arriving media to capture.

After dealing with the media, the White Old K members set up a barrier, signaling the media to stop.

They faced one of the initial five fire points.

The fire spread down the mountain, already engulfing two large areas.

The Monor District burning in front of them was the third region.

Before the forest fire, any house here was something an ordinary White Old K member could never reach in their lifetime.

But now, it was still out of reach.

They couldn't endure the high temperatures of several hundred degrees.

Booker opened a can of cold cola, took a long drink while watching the fiery scene, and let out a refreshing "puh ha" sound.

He crushed the empty can, tossed it into the burning district, and said:

"If Murphy is hiding in there, it seems we really can't do much. Veronica tried just now, but her attribute suppression was too strong. Even with energy conversion, she could only reach the center of the fire and had no focus left for fighting."

"Unless we put out the fire, we really can't do much to that stone man."

Murphy was the second candidate for the Saint Heir of the Peaceful Sect, highly ranked on the wanted list issued by the Four Major Organizations.

When capturing people yesterday, Booker and others recognized Murphy's abilities and guessed his origins.

Not just Murphy, they also figured out Dragon Armor's identity, as Booker and the team had participated in the cleansing of the Iron Armor Corps and were well acquainted with the main criminal's abilities.

Wu Chang said, "There's no need. You just need to surround the area and make sure he doesn't escape. The rest, leave it to me after the forest fire is out."

"Wait till the fire is out?" Booker repeated in confusion.

"You're not really waiting for a heavy rain, are you?"

Wu Chang offered no explanation and just stood quietly waiting.

Soon enough, a nameless strong wind blew by, causing the fire to burn even more fiercely, with many partly destroyed houses collapsing under the gale.

Subsequently, cries of surprise began to echo outside the fire scene's barricade.

Booker and others turned to look and saw an endless dark cloud surging towards them with the wind.

Once they confirmed the dark clouds weren't an illusion, their gazes shifted from the sky back to Wu Chang.

Ah?

Wait, brother, did you really make it happen?
