Chapter 59 Hidden

Chapter 59 Hidden

The man had a revolver in his hands, but it wasn't pointed at them yet. It seemed as if he knew what they were capable of. "Are you a Foreign Survivor?" Jenkins suddenly asked as the man got closer. He didn't show any signs of resistance as he even slowly put down his weapon.

"I am... And I believe you're one as well." The man answered.

His answer obviously relieved Jenkins and Marcus, but they also shook their heads at the same time.

"We're not Foreign Survivors... At the very least, after we started hearing the voice of the Lord of the Realms, we were getting addressed as Scavengers... I'm Jenkins... We heard that the Foreign Survivors would save this world..." Jenkins replied.

"We're only here as we want to complete a mission that is given to us. We're not enemies. We didn't want to get caught as we don't know how you guys would react if you learned that there's a treasure hidden in this place." Marcus explained. He didn't mind revealing this information in order to sound genuine. ***

"Scavengers? You're not from a different world who were sent here?" Shane asked while still maintaining his distance and readiness to shoot. The man who introduced himself as Jenkins was a tall and thin man with a pale and gaunt face. He had short and messy brown hair and a scruffy beard. He wore a leather jacket, a hoodie, jeans, and boots. He also had a backpack and a sharp knife.

He looked like a typical scavenger, except for his eyes. They were bright and cunning as if they could see through any disguise...

'So it's the church, huh...'

Shane felt a shock and a thrill. He couldn't believe that there was a treasure hidden in the Church... They had been staying there for more than a week now. "Really? How do you know that?" Shane asked.

At this time, the two Scavengers explained their Rare Talent to Shane. Nonetheless, Shane still felt doubt and suspicion. He couldn't be sure if they were telling the truth or not.

In the end, he decided to test them and see for himself. "Show me. Take me to the entrance. And don't try anything funny, or I'll shoot you." Jenkins and Marcus felt reluctant and helpless. They knew they had no choice but to obey. Their talents were not meant for fighting in the first place. "Okay. Okay. We'll show you. But please don't kill us. We're just doing our job." "We'll see about that. Now move." Shane said. Although these two seemed to be telling the truth, he couldn't just leave them be. Shane then called for Leo and Harper to help him watch the two scavengers as they led him to the Church after confiscating their weapons.

Leo and Harper then stopped their work as they picked up their weapons to stand behind the two Scavengers. Soon, Shane, Leo, and Harper followed Jenkins and Marcus to the Church. Well the Church was already transformed into a decent shelter for several people so it no longer looked like a Church from the inside. The large hall, which should have rows of pews, a pulpit, and a cross, could no longer be seen... Instead, there were divisions made of wooden planks like rooms for each of them.

Marcus then led them to a corner of the hall, where they saw a dilapidated painting of a saint. Half of it was even burned and could no longer be recognized.

However, as he moved the painting aside, it revealed a hidden door. Shane's eyes lit up as soon as he saw this...

'Why didn't I think of doing that?!'
