Chapter 1844: Something’s wrong (5)
Joan took no time at all to arrive at our destination.
When we arrived, I jumped off and landed where the Fenrir was waiting for me.
Before I could even do anything, the Fenrir had already come forward to grab me before putting me on her back. Then once I was on her back, she moved her head back to rub up against me.
An awkward smile appeared on my face seeing this, but I didn’t say anything as I just let her do what she wanted.
After all, I knew that it would be more trouble to stop her.
If I didn’t let her do what she wanted, then she would be hard to work with.
Only when the Fenrir was satisfied did she start moving to where the others were waiting.
A team had been sent with the Fenrir since it wasn’t as if she would be able to do everything alone. The Fenrir was just the main power behind this time, the scouting and rescuing would be done by the other members.
Seeing that I had arrived, they didn’t waste any time entering the portal arrays.
Once the scouting team had gone, I patted the Fenrir on the back and she moved towards the portal array as well.
This time, I didn’t have to do anything as the Fenrir did it for me.
Though when she did this, it seemed that she had been a bit too zealous.
When the Fenrir created that barrier around us, it was so strong that it actually damaged the portal array by purifying the corruption energy of the array, so we weren’t able to enter the outpost.
I knew that she was showing off, but this wasn’t the time for this.
The Fenrir also knew this as there was an awkward look that appeared on her face when she saw her failure.
It looked like she wanted to dig a hole to hide herself in.
But in the end, she acted like nothing had gone wrong and moved to another one of the portal arrays. The one that she had purified was completely unusable since it had become twisted as a result of her purification.
This time, the Fenrir controlled her divine energy more precisely so that it created a perfectly harmless barrier.
It wasn’t strange since the Fenrir had already done this once to enter the first outpost that she destroyed. If it wasn’t for the fact that she wanted to show off in front of me, then she wouldn’t have made that mistake.
Still, there was no one that could control their divine energy more precisely than the Fenrir.
The first choice for a teacher when it came to controlling divine energy was naturally the Fenrir. After all, it was a messenger of the gods and had learned how to control her divine energy from them.
That was why there was no one else that was better than her when it came to controlling divine energy.
I knew this from the barrier that I had encountered when I first found the Feather Race.
It was just that the Fenrir didn’t have any motivation to teach.
She might have some motivation if I was the one that was learning, but when it came to the others…she really didn’t have any motivation at all. No matter how the others asked her, she just didn’t seem to care about them at all.
In fact, she wouldn’t even answer when they asked questions most of the time.
This went against the hope that I had for everyone to grow stronger, which was why I didn’t rely on the Fenrir to teach us.
However, that was also what caused the current situation.
Because I went to learn from someone else, it seemed like she wanted to demonstrate that she was better so I would want to learn from her.
It really seemed like a complicated thing for the Fenrir.
Though the one thing that I didn’t understand was why she was so determined to follow me.
Even if I was the representative of the gods as designated by the Mark of God, it wasn’t as if she should be that keen to follow me…Unless her devotion to the gods really was that great that it completely suppressed her normal thoughts.
If that was the case, I really was a bit worried.
With the Fenrir casting the barrier, we were pulled right into the pocket in space.
However, the same thing happened once more where we didn’t find a single thing.
This outpost was actually the worst out of all of the outposts that we encountered as there wasn’t a single person that was left alive in the end. With how everyone looked as they died, it was clear that this was the outpost that had been abandoned first.
As for why it had been abandoned first, that wasn’t something that we could figure out.
There were no signs left behind by the forces of Destruction that showed us what this outpost was for in the first place, so we would have no idea why they were so keen to abandon this place.
“Gather them all up and place them in between us.”
Normally, it wouldn’t matter if we left the corpses as they were since they would come out of the pocket in space with us. But it was different this time because there were so many of them and they had been deeply corrupted by the corruption energy.
That was why this time, we were going to purify the corpses before destroying the ball of corruption energy.
I would have done it myself, but the Fenrir really wanted to show her power which was why she stepped forward and took care of it instead.
With the Fenrir’s divine power, it really was a simple task.
She even destroyed the ball of corruption energy for us in the end and brought us out of the pocket in space.
When we came out, I received reports that everyone was out as well.
