After the battle had completely ended and it was confirmed there were no enemies left, the soldiers withdrew from the area.
As long as no one interfered anymore, the storm heresy contained in the bodies of the armed workers who had died in the rubble would gradually dissipate on its own and not last very long.
Of course, these activated storm bombs were very unstable entities. It was not ruled out that they might explode for some reason before their energy was completely dissipated.
Meanwhile, Gu Hang also had to be vigilant against the cultists returning to retrieve and make use of the bodies again.
Therefore, a company of soldiers would be stationed nearby, put up a cordon, and completely lock down the vicinity until the problem here was resolved.
