From his position high above, Ethan had a clear view of the rocky outcrop below. Nothing escaped his eyes.
The Dissenter personnel stationed there weren't particularly busy; they looked more like bored security guards than guards of some sacred ritual.
But six of them stood out. Ethan's attention sharpened as he sensed strange fluctuations coming from their bodies—draconic energy.
That faint, almost imperceptible aura was the same dragon energy he'd been detecting all day. Each of the six wore a white robe that looked specially made. The fabric had some kind of property that completely blocked Soul Sense detection.
When Ethan swept his awareness over them, it was like water hitting a raincoat—it slid right off.
He let out a quiet chuckle. "Heh... materials like that exist?" It was the first time he'd encountered something that could completely deflect his Soul Sense. The discovery was both surprising and intriguing.
