All thirteen catastrophe-level experts temporarily belonging to the Hunter Association were present.
Somewhat unexpectedly, Wen Wen did not see Pope Charlie. Kostos here.
It seems that after a series of previous events, the relationship between the Glory Church and the Hunter Association has cooled to freezing point; they are only maintaining a superficial alliance, not advancing and retreating together in major events like this.
Perhaps, for a religious force like the Glory Church, chaos aligns with their survival strategy.
Because in the current Federation, they are greatly restricted; only in troubled times could the Glory Church possibly regain prosperity.
Hopefully, that old fellow Charlie won't be so foolish as to join with other secret organizations, or else the Glory Church might suffer a devastating blow this time.
Wen Wen certainly hopes not to encounter that unfathomable Old Priest on the battlefield.
