A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 872 - 858: Amy

Upon seeing this scene, Baiyu was momentarily stunned and found it hard to react. Fortunately, someone familiar soon emerged from the City Guard Army. It was Ms. Butterfly, who was specifically responsible for Baiyu and Celestial Thunder's group of students. She was really nice and approachable.

"Do you know this fat monk? Just now, he climbed out from inside the light screen. We thought he was a follower of the Evil God."

Butterfly looked at Baiyu and Celestial Thunder.

It wasn't that she was making a fuss. It's just that a person suddenly emerging from the Barrier was somewhat hard to accept. After all, this Barrier was something even the Attendant figures found quite troublesome.

Quickly, Baiyu and Celestial Thunder explained what happened inside.

The more Butterfly listened, the more bizarre the story seemed; by the end, she looked at the fat monk with a ridiculous expression.

Damn, this is absurd; how did he get out?

"Come with me, I need to report this to the Attendant figures." Butterfly said to the three.

...

A matter this significant couldn't possibly be concealed by her and had already gone beyond her ability to handle. The entire Great City was in turmoil, with large-scale Extraordinary incidents breaking out simultaneously at several locations, each with traces of Cultists behind them.

Currently, the entire Great City was in chaos, with everyone feeling overwhelmed.

Baiyu, Celestial Thunder, and the fat monk were quickly escorted by Butterfly to the core area of the Great City.

Of course, there was still some distance to the Miracle Tower.

The Miracle Tower was the heartland of the Great City, accessible only to those truly belonging to the Great City. Others generally couldn't approach it. Baiyu and Celestial Thunder were temporarily placed in a hospital for physical examination. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

After last night's examination, Butterfly returned.

Trailing behind her was a young girl dressed in a sundress with twin ponytails. Her features were exquisite, and her beauty was admirable, truly a standout among beauties. She tightly followed Butterfly, with an arrogant look in her eyes.

"Are you Baiyu?"

Very quickly, the girl's gaze shifted to Baiyu and Celestial Thunder, though she directly overlooked Celestial Thunder; it was evident her attention was focused on Baiyu.

Facing this sudden questioning tone.

Baiyu felt somewhat displeased.

Who the hell is this jerk, acting high and mighty?

"Who are you?" Baiyu retorted.

"I am the City Lord's Attendant, Amy, full name Amy Bernadette, currently fully responsible for handling this Cultist invasion incident. You are among the first group to escape from inside, so I'm here to gather information from you."

After speaking, the girl couldn't help but sneer, the arrogance and conceit in her bones showing to the fullest. Although both were Attendants of the City Lord, Amy and Loloya were completely different. At least Loloya rarely spoke.

"I've already explained the situation to Butterfly. You can learn from her. We are survivors, not the culprits behind this Extraordinary event. If you truly want to resolve the issue, you shouldn't waste your time on us."

Baiyu said flatly.

Beside him, Celestial Thunder tugged his sleeve, signaling him not to confront the City Lord's Attendant, as this was their domain. The City Lord's Attendant was akin to a close minister of the emperor; sparring with them as a commoner was akin to seeking death, wasn't it?

Amy, hearing Baiyu say this, surprisingly wasn't angered. Instead, she looked at him with a pleasant smile: "Quite the temper you have. Alright, there's nothing for you here anymore; leave it to me. Since you managed to escape, stay put for now."

After speaking.

She stretched lazily, looked at the black light screen, and then walked inside.

Baiyu was momentarily at a loss.

Does it have to be so abrupt, just saying one sentence and walking in, with no preparation whatsoever? Baiyu had wanted to warn her about the two Evil Gods brewing trouble inside, that a slight mishap could cost a life, but the warning simply couldn't be expressed in time.

"Don't worry, since Amy dared to go in, it means she surely has the assurance. Leaving this here unattended would sooner or later become a disaster. Since Amy is here, she will resolve it to prevent any trouble."

Butterfly explained to Baiyu.

Only then did Baiyu grasp the meaning in Butterfly's words, involuntarily asking, "Are you saying the Great City has the ability to resolve this problem?"

"Yes, this isn't the most troublesome one. This time, ten Extraordinary incidents have occurred in total. This particular one is considered relatively simple among them. The truly difficult ones are elsewhere."

Butterfly's face showed concern: "All the Attendant figures are deployed, striving to resolve the city's issues."

According to these City Lord's Personal Guard members, the figures referred to were Loloya and Lilith; these City Lord's Attendants managed the city daily and were naturally the first to act when issues arose.

"Has the situation escalated to this point? Where is the City Lord? Let's ask the mighty City Lord to come up with some plans, please."

Baiyu suggested to her.

Since coming to the Great City until now, the City Lord's statue could be seen everywhere, but the person himself hadn't been seen at all.

Other regional rulers frequently make appearances among the masses to establish their image, but the City Lord of the Great City seemed almost non-existent.

Butterfly shook her head: "The City Lord's whereabouts aren't within our scope to query, but the situation hasn't yet reached the point of necessitating notifying the City Lord."

Not yet to the point of notifying the City Lord?

That means.

These situations can be managed by the Attendants.

Although Baiyu wanted to learn more information, it was regrettable that Butterfly was unwilling to disclose any excess details, only sending Baiyu and Celestial Thunder back to school. As for the fat monk, it seemed like he was taken away by the Personal Guard.

Since the other party managed to climb out from the Barrier, which was remarkably absurd, the Personal Guard certainly couldn't release such a mysterious and potentially destructive person.

Though the old monk had helped Baiyu.

Therefore, Baiyu tried pleading for the fat, round-faced monk before Butterfly, but judging from Butterfly's tone, it seemed she wouldn't do much against the fat monk.

If there truly weren't any problems, he'd probably be released.

Baiyu returned to the holy Purple Crystal School, only to find significant changes from when he left. First, a protective shield had risen outside the school, appearing to be a high-level Barrier, evidently to prevent the turmoil within the city from impacting the school.

Inside the school, patrol teams led by teachers have been organized, with school entry strictly controlled, marking a Level One lockdown state. Baiyu and Celestial Thunder were able to re-enter smoothly thanks to being returned by the Personal Guard.

The atmosphere inside the school didn't seem to be affected by the chaos outside; students were busily engaged in their own tasks in an orderly fashion.
