Chapter 219
Victoria, who was holding a glass of red wine, arched an eyebrow. “Is it an earthquake?”
Earthquake?
Moira, who had mostly stayed quiet the whole night, turned pale with fear.
“Don’t worry. It’s not an earthquake.” Jacob waved his hand calmly and went to the large floor-to-ceiling window.
He leaned close and looked at the ground floor through the crystal clear glass panes. There was a giant bull-shaped stone statue
of two meters tall and three meters wide, standing firmly on the tiled floor at the hotel entrance.
Under the bright lights, he could clearly see web-like cracks spreading from the center of the bull statue.
Moira stood before the window and looked down. She said in confusion, “Huh? Isn’t that the bull statue from the square? How
did it get here?”
Then, her face turned pale. “Could it be alive? Did it walk here by itself?”
Jacob turned and glanced at Moira.
Victoria also came to the window and looked down. Her eyes flashed as she said, “We are not in a fairy tale. It’s impossible for
that statue to be alive. If I’m not mistaken, someone must have moved the statue here.”
“Moved? Who is strong enough to move such a heavy statue? Moreover, it is right in front of the hotel. People would have
noticed it if someone had used a machine to move it.” Moira was curious to find out what had happened.
“Don’t dismiss the existence of something just because you haven’t seen it.” Victoria squinted her eyes at Jacob.
Victoria carefully observed everything and everyone she had met since arriving at Rowan Lane.
Victoria was the most talented of the younger generation in Cruor Sect. She was on the verge of integrating the three great
powers of Cruor Sect. However, she recently discovered that even the young men who revered Jacob could easily defeat the
most outstanding disciples of Cruor Sect.
Furthermore, she speculated that even the powerful Elders of Cruor Sect would not be able to win easily in a one-on-one fight
with them.
Her eyes turned gloomy as she thought about this.
She had tried to contact Cruor Sect for the past two days. But no matter what method she used, there was no response.
Perhaps what this man said is true. Cruor Sect has been wiped off from the face of the Earth.
Victoria clenched her teeth and felt conflicted.
Cruor Sect was a place where she had lived most of her life. If she wasn’t concerned about someone being unhappy about her
sudden disappearance, she would have long returned to the foremost altar of Cruor Sect to find out what had happened.
As Victoria was engrossed in her thoughts, a few hotel staff rushed out of the hotel.
After what happened recently, the only staff left in the hotel were in fact ten Shadow Rangers from the Scarlet Dragons’ Shadow
Squad.
The sudden appearance of a giant bull statue immediately attracted the notice of the Shadow Rangers standing guard at the
hotel entrance.
“Who’s there?” The first Shadow Ranger to run out of the hotel glanced around before focusing on a direction.
From the restaurant, Jacob saw two tall men and a short man walking toward the hotel.
The Shadow Ranger looked at the giant bull statue and shouted sternly, “Stop right there. Who are you, and why are you here?”
