However, the two hadn't chatted for long before a crimson figure descended beside them.
"Iz, you're finally back."
"Oh! Chi Cheng has spawned," Lu Cang thought.
"Yeah, Obades told me everything. You guys dug up traces of the Death Church, right?" Iz asked.
Chi Cheng replied, "Kumironi was the one who dug them out. To be accurate, Lu Cang was the one who noticed the first signs."
Iz glanced at Lu Cang, his expression tinged with surprise and approval.
"Let's head over now. There are a few rather intricate Magic Restrictions over there that are hard to crack," Chi Cheng said. The two paused for a moment and turned to look at Lu Cang. Chi Cheng chuckled. "Heh heh, Lu Cang, do you want to come along?"
"Me?" Lu Cang asked.
"Yeah," Chi Cheng explained. "We cleared out a hidden stronghold of the Death Church. It doesn't seem to be their Core base, and their key members have probably long since evacuated.
"I plan to have Iz take a look to see if there are any clues."
