A group shuffled through the chaotic city.
The deranged Fallen Believers darted madly through the streets, while the sounds of distant explosions and screams could occasionally be heard.
Bloodstains and bodies everywhere had been congealed by the cold, trash, glass shards, and fragments of shop doors tumbled in the wind, highlighting the disarray of the entire city.
When several Fallen Believers noticed the group, they charged over immediately, their faces twisted with madness as they muttered strange prayers, sending chills down one's spine.
But before they could get close, their heads burst apart under the hail of bullets.
It was the doing of the Silver Dragon Guard.
Captain Cixi had led five of the guards to join Chen Lun on this "expedition," leaving the rest to protect civilians at the commerce guild's building.
The guards' long-barreled flintlock guns were incredibly powerful, resembling less of mundane firearms and more of Transcendent artifacts.
