Rody’s Revenge (I)

The pope only had one elder following him now. They could only rely on their powerful magic to fly as they had lost their carriage. After flying for dozens of miles, they saw from afar a wide river flowing ahead.

It was already nearing dawn right now. There was a faint white light in the sky, and a glow gradually appeared at the end of the horizon in the east.

The surrounding was quiet and peaceful, only the gurgling sound of the flowing river could be heard. However, the pope did not dare to let his guard down anymore. Initially, he thought that he would be able to divert the attention of the royal family's pursuers by dividing his forces into two groups, while he and several elders flee through another route. But they were hunted down several times in one night. It was obvious that the royal family knew their escape route very well, especially now that they had reached the river bank, which was the best natural place to intercept them.
