Facing the pursuit by Matthew, members of the Eternal Church immediately turned and fled.
They displayed all kinds of escape methods.
Some grew wings on their backs and took flight straight into the air.
Some sprouted 4 legs, sprinting at full speed into the distance.
Some controlled the hounds around them, being swiftly carried away on their backs.
Others stuck close to the ground, slithering away like centipedes in a twisted, winding escape.
They were never cultists keen on "combat," only wishing to preserve their own lives, to live longer and longer.
They desperately gathered the hounds, but couldn't halt Matthew's relentless pursuit.
With the enhancement of the Electro Armor, Matthew had an overwhelming "data crush" against the hounds, cutting them down with simple sweeps of his sword.
Matthew moved at high speed, quickly closing in on the nearest member of the Eternal Church.
