Chương 394: Chapter 398: Intersecting Waterways

In the depths of the secret passage connected to the Second Water Route, Nemo Wilkins held a lantern and led the way, remarking rather schadenfreudically, "Our people have caught wind of the situation, evacuated, and 'swept' clean the traces beneath us. The Church folk are now burrowing here and there in the Central City District and the Western City District—the spreading darkness is sure to give them headaches now."

"I was worried you would take this chance to cause some destruction," Duncan said casually, "especially since the Second Water Route is your home ground."

"It is unnecessary for us to do that," Nemo shook his head, "we are loyal to Captain Terrian, and Captain Terrian never wishes to destroy this City-State—from the perspective of protecting the City-State, we and the Church, even the city hall, don't really have any conflicts. Right now, Church members are trying to get rid of the heretics in the city; we're not petty enough to aid those heretics."
