Fortunately, Zhang Ches worries were superfluous. Since Sun Hailin came to inform him, it meant that the higher-ups intended to bring him with them during the relocation of the Xinjing branch.

It wasnt just Zhang Che. Even Fang Ruqing, who had escaped on the same day he had, was onthe list of people who were going with them.

The round-faced, middle-aged branch chief thought that since they could escape from the militarys tight security, in addition to the fact that Zhang Che provided them with an incredibly important piece of information, these two were lucky soldiers to have. Heavens knew if there would be more troubles if they wanted to leave Jingzhou safely. With those two with them, things should go much smoother!

After being summoned by Sun Hailin, Zhang Che also took part in the work of moving the Freemasons Xinjing branch.

Well, calling it moving was a little inaccurate. After all, the Freemasons werent a government organization. It was only an evil cult; there werent many things to move.

Moreover, the branch chief of the Freemasons Xinjing branch obviously had storage-type beast cards. The important things were being kept in his spatial storage. The others didnt need to bring many things with them.

Their main concern was that there were many devout members that needed to be transferred to the headquarters.

Although those people might not necessarily be strong, at least they were absolutely loyal to the organization. Great effort and resources were spent to nurture them. Abandoning them just like that was definitely not acceptable!

After all, loyal members were the greatest assets an evil cult could have!

After only one afternoon, things on this side were fully packed up. Afterwards, they were divided up and prepared to be moved in batches away from Xinjing City.

As a meritorious member, he was allowed to be among the first batch of people to leave Jingzhou, along with the senior members. However, it was obviously impossible for the cult members to take public transport when leaving.

In this day and age, the only methods of public transport available were land and air. Travelling by ship on the waters was impossible, unless you had divine-tier beastmasters with you. They could use the auras of a divine-quality subdued beast to deter the innumerable exotic beasts in the sea. Otherwise, no matter how many ships sailed off, they would only end up in the bottom of the sea, becoming food for the fish.

It was obviously impossible for the Xinjing branch to own a private jet. Even if they had one, the military in Jingzhou was keeping a very close watch on the air traffic. There was no way they could fly their way out.

As for land transport regrettably, although there were originally bridges connecting Jingzhou to the mainland, the countless exotic beasts had destroyed those bridges after the arrival of the new age.

As such, the senior members of the Freemasons could only choose to fly over the waters in the end.

On this journey, putting aside the militarys strict surveillance, just the exotic beasts in the sea were a huge problem for them. Naturally it was a very dangerous move!

Fortunately, the Freemasons influence wasnt small, either. They knew a route very few knew of, and could guarantee there wouldnt be any overly powerful exotic beasts around. Even so, no one could guarantee they wouldnt encounter any powerful exotic beasts while crossing the waters!

As one of the members to leave in the first batch, Zhang Che and the others didnt have much to worry about. After all, the Xinjing branch had a few high-tier beastmasters. The round-faced, middle-aged branch chief had an epic-quality flying subdued beast. Although he couldnt let everyone fly on it, he could escort them, guaranteeing the safety of about a hundred people.

They left Xinjing City during the night, then moved along the mountain woods in the suburbs, spending two days before finally arriving at a remote beach along the northern coast of Jingzhou.

The branch chief, Yang Sen, summoned out his epic-quality flying subdued beast, and let the most important members of the branch mount it, then said to the middle-level members, including Zhang Che, When were crossing the waters later on, try your best to keep any commotion to the minimum, and your speed up. Although my epic-quality subdued beast should be able to keep everyone safe, there might be an accident if we draw too many powerful exotic beasts. At that time, you can only depend on yourselves.

What he meant was very clear:Although I will protect you, that is only if the exotic beasts arent very powerful. If there is trouble, of course I wont care about you. If you want to live, then it all depends on your skill and luck!

Every one present were the most loyal members of the organization (with the exception of a spy no one is aware of), so naturally they would obey the higher-ups without question. In times of crisis, they definitely couldnt count on them to risk their own lives to come save them.

As such, the crowd nodded unanimously.

Afterwards, not everyone summoned out their flying subdued beasts. They only summoned about a dozen of them, enough for everyone else to ride.

After all, if they summoned out too many flying beasts, they would draw the attention of the exotic beasts below very easily. It was too dangerous. They understood this point very well, too!

Yang Sen nodded when everyone got onto a flying subdued beast, and waved his hand, saying, Lets move out. Take note to maintain our formation. You mustnt get too far away from my mount, or I might not be able to take care of you if any unexpected situations occur.

Yang Sens cool mount, whichresembled a flying dragon took off first, flying off over the water, followed by about a dozen flying mounts, large and small, at their owners commands. No one made a sound.

The group flew towards the opposite coast, just like that. If things went smoothly, theyd only need about three hours to reach the opposite side.

Once they reached the opposite coast, it meant that everyone was completely safe.

Zhang Che might have brought good luck to the convoy. For the next three hours or so of flight, although they were ambushed by some flying exotic beasts above the waters, and some water-based exotic beasts even shot out of the water surface suddenly to attack them, those exotic beasts werent that strong. They were unable to cause any trouble to the group at all in the face of Yang Sens epic-quality subdued beasts attacks.

Even though they even encountered a high-tier dark gold-quality exotic beast during their flight, it was still no match for Yang Sens subdued beast. After it suffered an attack from the epic-quality beast, it scurried away with its tail between its legs.

Yang Sen felt irritated about that. If he didnt have to protect the other members, he could have chased and killed that high-tier dark gold-quality exotic beast, obtaining its corpse.

Although killing exotic beasts on Mercury wouldnt give him any beast cards, the corpse of a high-tier dark gold-quality exotic beast was valuable, too! It was worth a considerable sum to most beastmasters!

When they finally saw the endless coast spread out in front of them, everyone finally couldnt hold it in any more and cheered out loud. At that moment, they knew they were finally safe!
