"These guys, just how many are there?" Owen was very curious.
"I don't know," Qian Cangyi shook his head.
According to what he had learned from "The Treasure of the Burning Sea," the followers of Hezerak all claimed to be Sagula, and Douglas's performance on the Blue Pearl indicated that becoming a follower indeed allowed one to harness Hezerak's power.
This meant that anyone could potentially switch their allegiance in times of trouble to embrace Hezerak's power to solve their problems.
Owen glanced around left and right, then lowered his voice and beckoned Qian Cangyi to converse in an empty corner nearby.
As the employees of the bank ran around in a frenzy, the calm pair stood out starkly.
After making sure no one was around, Owen began,
"The theft of the manuscript was within my expectations; in fact, I came to you to confirm just that."
Qian Cangyi's eyes widened with a hint of surprise and asked,
"Why would you know that, your Excellency?"
