James appeared outside the Hopeless City once more. He was not in a hurry to enter the city and unleashed his Divine Sense to survey the surroundings.
Hopeless City was one of the Soul Race’s core cities, so it was protected by a powerful formation. Usually, the formation would be inactive, but it was activated today. When the formation was activated, every other entrance would be closed, making the main city gate the only way into the city.
Outside the city gate lay a treasure that could discern a target’s aura. If James were to get too close, it would scan his soul aura and identify him as a human.
It was created by the Ten Great Races to weed out and kill humans.
James observed the situation outside the city gate from a distance. Seeing how heavily fortified the city was, he began feeling anxious. He hid outside the city, waiting for an opportunity.
A few days later, James was still in his initial hiding spot and had not moved.
A 180-centimeter-tall man in a black robe suddenly walked toward the city. He held a knife in his hand, and dragged its blade across the ground, leaving marks behind. A powerful aura erupted from his body, immediately attracting the guards’ attention Right after, thousands of guards rushed over to him.
“It’s… him?”
James, who was still concealed from afar, was surprised to see the man approaching the city gate. He was none other than Bruce, who had slaughtered a prodigy of the Soul Race some time ago.
He stood near the city gate and unleashed his intense aura. He slowly raised his big knife, pointed it at the guards ahead of him, and demanded, “Bring your City Lord here, I want to speak to him!”
Swoosh!
A ray of light suddenly shone on the ground. The Hopeless City’s Lord, Hutchin, appeared from within it. When he saw Bruce outside the city gate, his face immediately turned black.
“I’ve been searching for you, but you took the opportunity to hand yourself over to me.
“Surround him! I want him captured alive.”
