My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2776

The two of them hurriedly rescued the driver and Benedict from the inferno. Although Benedict had the protection of the Hundred Eyes Beads, he still suffered severe burns. As for the driver, who had no protective measures, he was already...

"Quick! Use healing magic!" Zeodria shouted.

Nicky summoned all his divine power and managed to save Benedict's life. However, they were helpless to assist the driver, who had already passed away.

They quickly transported Benedict to the hospital. Nicky, not being a god specialized in healing arts, could only use divine power to temporarily sustain Benedict's life. Nonetheless, this was not a long-term solution, and they needed to get him to a hospital urgently.

After delivering him to the hospital, Nicky contacted Dusky. Once he explained the situation, Dusky appeared equally shocked. They then began to reassess the entire incident.

They had been focused solely on guarding against divine power, neglecting the threat of human attacks. The explosives that targeted Benedict contained no divine power. This was their blind spot.

They also realized that the situation had become tricky. Dusky reluctantly had to temporarily halt his actions.

With Benedict injured, the newly formed organization designed to counter divine power was likely to lack direction. Now, Dusky needed to find a different approach.

…

With only two days left before the trip to Sand Country, the communications department at the state capital had been continuously practicing and testing to ensure a smooth call with Sand Country the following day.

In an office at the state capital, Kaden and Elias were enjoying tea together. After a busy day, they finally found a moment to rest.

Suddenly, a knock echoed through the room. Nash, who was also present in the office, sensed the presence of divine power and cautiously instructed the two elders to step back.

"Be careful, General Copper, General Landon. The person outside possesses divine power."

At that moment, the office door swung open, revealing Benedict. Seeing him, the elders breathed a sigh of relief. However, Nash summoned a talisman.

Upon hearing this, both Elias and Kaden were filled with shock and anger.

"What?!" Kaden slammed his fist on the table.

"Was it those people from the divine power organizations that did this?"

Dusky nodded. "However, please rest assured, Mr. Varhess has been taken to the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Kaden could hardly sit still. "In that case, we should go see him—"

However, Dusky interrupted, "No."
