Whispers of prayer resounded through the darkness...
"Praise to Veda."
The fire pit illuminated the surroundings.
This was the wasteland inside the amusement park, where all the people who had rushed to support the Veda Sect had now arrived.
About fifty or sixty in number.
Among them, those from Bishop Aika's group who were originally at the amusement park were almost all dead, leaving only a barely alive Aika herself.
She sat on the ground, her face smeared with blood. Her once wrinkled face, resembling that of an old person, looked as though it was torn apart by the claws of some animal, with skin rolling at the wounds, appearing extremely ferocious.
And to one side...
The people of the Veda Sect watched solemnly as the gathering mist concealed the dead banyan tree from view.
Underneath the banyan tree, a large pool of blood flowed on the ground, and dozens of bodies were carelessly strewn about, their throats all cut open for bloodletting.
