Chapter 1836: Chapter 1834: Sheltering

The person who arrived moved swiftly, his aura revealing the level of at least twenty stars, perhaps even as high as thirty. A middle-aged man’s figure flashed and he was already there.

"Steward Baldwin!"

Brian Hughes’s eyes widened as he looked at the newcomer.

However, the middle-aged man didn’t speak, seemingly in a hurry. He glanced at the formation and said in a deep voice, "Disable the formation."

Peter Brown looked at Brian Hughes once.

"Quickly disable the formation, this is Steward Baldwin."

Brian Hughes, who obviously feared Steward Baldwin, hurriedly said to Peter.

At that moment, Peter made a discovery. As soon as the middle-aged man arrived, he had been watching the man in black inside, seemingly very concerned.

What exactly was he worried about?

When Brian Hughes mentioned the situation, Peter suddenly had a hunch. The person trapped inside likely had some connection with Steward Baldwin; he was worried that the arrival of too many people would complicate matters.

Since he realized this, Peter didn’t intend to open the formation so readily. He said to Brian Hughes, "The formation I set is a Trapping Array. It requires a considerable amount of Life Energy to infuse. I need your help with the energy infusion, as mine is insufficient."

"How do I infuse it?" Steward Baldwin was clearly in a rush to rescue the person and asked.

Acting very eager, Peter pointed to a spot and said, "Just infuse it here."

Everyone then noticed a Divine Stone exposed at that location.

When Steward Baldwin quickly infused energy into the Divine Stone, they saw the Stone light up brightly, with a beam flashing once before dimming again.

"What’s going on?"

Steward Baldwin realized the formation hadn’t opened and glared angrily at Peter Brown.

"Steward, this formation requires energy to be infused seven times, please infuse it again."

Steward Baldwin really felt the impulse to hit someone now, as he hadn’t expected a formation to be so complicated.

"Aren’t you able to enter it every day?" Steward Baldwin suddenly thought of this and looked at Peter with disapproval.

"Steward Baldwin, normally, it’s very easy to enter just by following this Divine Stone, but he is trapped within the formation, and to draw him out is indeed difficult," Peter hurriedly explained.

Steward Baldwin looked at the Divine Stones concealed on the ground and was truly speechless.

However anxious and displeased he was in his heart, he had no choice but to keep infusing energy.

Even as a thirty-star expert, consuming energy seven times was somewhat taxing. After infusing energy for a while, his expression started to show a change.

The energy is coming!

Just then, a smile appeared at the corner of Peter’s mouth, hearing the sound of clothing. He knew that more high-ranking individuals had arrived.

Indeed, before Steward Baldwin completed the energy infusion, several figures had already flashed into view, followed by a few middle-aged men with evil spirits emanating from them.

"What’s the situation?" the leader among them asked loudly.

Brian Hughes, upon seeing these few, changed his expression and said even more respectfully, "Law-enforcement deacons, we’ve trapped someone who was damaging the Divine Valley Fields. Steward Baldwin arrived first and is trying to get the person out."

At that moment, Steward Baldwin’s energy infusion was complete. Peter discreetly directed a surge of energy beneath his own feet, and the Trapping Array was undone.

Nobody expected the person trapped inside to be someone with a volatile temper. As soon as the formation was lifted, he shouted, "Dare to trap me, kill!"

During his speech, he lunged at Peter.

It was evident that he knew this was Peter’s territory, and his target was clear.

With a swift movement, Peter positioned himself behind the newly arrived men.

"Hmph." Not expecting the trapped person to still want to kill, the faces of the law-enforcement deacons immediately showed anger. One of them charged forward and launched a punch at the other party.

"No, don’t!"

Upon seeing this, Steward Baldwin hurriedly stepped between them, even trading a blow with the law-enforcement deacon.

After a loud bang, both sides took a step back.

"Carrington Baldwin, what are you trying to do?" the leader among the law-enforcement deacons asked Carrington Baldwin.

"This—"

Steward Baldwin was at a loss for words.

Snorting, the law-enforcement deacon turned towards the man in black and demanded, "Who are you?"

Hearing this, the man in black seemed to realize the arrival of the law-enforcement personnel, and his expression changed drastically.

"Take him down first."

One enforcer lunged at the man in black.

Clearly, the man in black had cultivation only around twenty stars. Faced with those around thirty, he had little strength to fight back.

When Carrington Baldwin thought to step forward to help, he glanced at the law-enforcement personnel, sighed in resignation, and stood still.

Soon, the man was subdued, and upon removing the face mask, everyone saw a stranger.

With a snort, the captor said, "You even used a disguise technique; did you think you could fool us?"

During his words, he pointed a finger, striking straight at the man’s area below the navel.

With that one finger strike, the man in black’s appearance returned to normal.

"Baldwin’s Army!"

Brian Hughes exclaimed in shock, then turned to look at Carrington Baldwin.

At that moment, Carrington Baldwin’s face changed drastically, shaking where he stood.

"Good job, Carrington Baldwin. As a deacon, allowing such misconduct, come with us to the tribunal hall," the head law-enforcement officer addressed Carrington Baldwin.

With a stomp, Carrington Baldwin glanced at Brian Hughes, then turned to Peter Brown and said, "Very well, very well, I’ve actually fallen into your trap. Impressive move."

Now, he understood something about the matter—Peter Brown certainly had done it on purpose.

Yet Peter maintained a composed demeanor, addressing the law-enforcement officers, "Elders, there are also some Gnawing Beasts here."

Everyone then noticed that the Gnawing Beasts were following Baldwin’s Army, and there were actually several of them behind him.

With a wave of his hand, one of the law-enforcement officers caught the Gnawing Beasts and directly threw them into a bag.

At that point, Peter also sighed in relief. Having captured the person rearing the Gnawing Beasts, his Divine Valley Fields should no longer face major issues.

The whole affair was now seemingly resolved. The law-enforcement deacons who had arrived only now realized they were in front of a large expanse of Divine Valley. Everyone’s eyes went wide with surprise; amidst widespread issues with the Divine Valley, here lay a hundred acres of thriving fields looking as vigorous as ever. Curiosity arose among them, and their gazes turned to Peter, understanding that this stretch of Divine Valley must have been the work of this young man.
