Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3036

When the bus driver started driving, there were only a handful of passengers on the bus, but more got on along the journey.

In the end, the bus was packed.

Mostly simple and honest-looking local farmers were on the bus.

Although the place was remote, the locals led peaceful lives. Right when Nathan and the others were thinking about that, a few men dressed as commoners got on the bus.

They seemed to belong to some kind of religious organization and immediately caught Nathan's and the others' eyes.

Their leader was a bald, enormous man.

He had a vicious-looking face, but he pretended to look kind and religious.

He started handing out cards to people on the bus as he introduced himself. “Hello, folks. I'm Nigel Yackley from the Oracles of Humility on Rostrie Hill. I'm Wrigley Giles' first disciple. We are here to spread the word and let you know of our existence. We can point you in the right direction and dispel misfortune.”

Upon hearing that, the passengers started discussing among themselves.

“Oh, so they're from the Oracles of Humility. I heard that their prayers do come true there. There was a crippled man in my village. His wife could not get pregnant for ten years, so he went to Rostrie Hill to ask Wrigley for help. His wife stayed on Rostrie Hill for three whole days and prayed earnestly. After three days, his wife came back and soon became pregnant.”

Everyone started expressing their amazement when they heard that, thinking that Wrigley must be very powerful to be able to make a supposedly infertile woman pregnant.

Upon hearing everyone's comments, Nigel and the others could not help but flash indiscernible wicked smiles.

Haha. This is nothing. My mentor can let the man's wife become pregnant. I can do it too.

Nigel continued to give the people on the bus his cards while introducing himself as Wrigley's first disciple. He welcomed everyone to find him if they had any unusual and complex illnesses or questions about geomancy and assured them that he would see to every request.

When he passed by Nathan's side and passed him a card, he glanced at Penny, who was seated at the side. His eyes widened, and he blurted out, “What a pretty wife you have there!”

Penny could not help but furrow her brows.
