Clone Ascension

FangBro let out a breath of relief

when Bishop Aldric Rowan and Knight Commander Brutus Kane

both left the underground chamber.

If the Bishop had walked toward him,

he would never have been able to stay hidden—

he would’ve had to run.

But then a thought struck him,

and his heart tightened again.

“The blasphemer they mentioned…

don’t tell me that’s Evan?”

No—he had to save him.

FangBro immediately burrowed away

and resurfaced outside the Evolution Temple.

Wendy Lewis and the Security Bureau officers

spotted him from afar.

FangBro signaled upward—

the agreed‑upon sign.

Then he charged toward the temple.

The Security Bureau captain

gave the order instantly:

“Team One, surround the temple!

Deploy the Hundred‑Knot Net

and seal the underground!

Team Two, with me!”

Because the suspects might include

earth‑burrowing evolvers,

they had borrowed a rare artifact

from the national treasury

specifically to block subterranean escape routes.

The Church of Evolution

was a major power.

The Bureau dared not be careless.

The captain himself

was a Butterfly‑tier evolver.

He kicked off the ground

and shot into the temple like a missile,

with officers following in formation.

Wendy joined at the rear.

🛕 Inside the Temple Hall

After making the call,

Cleric Samuel Price

kept finding excuses

to prevent Evan from leaving.

Soon, the back doors opened,

and Bishop Rowan

entered with Brutus Kane.

The Bishop looked at Evan

and asked his armored subordinate:

“If someone disrespects the god,

what should be done?”

Brutus answered coldly,

“He should be sent to meet the god

and beg for forgiveness.”

The Bishop shook his head.

“Our Lord is merciful.

If he is a chosen one,

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

he may be given a chance to repent.”

Then his expression hardened,

murderous intent leaking through.

“Chosen one—

are you willing to become

a follower of our Lord?”

Evan smiled.

“I asked your god a question earlier.

He couldn’t answer.

If you believers can answer it,

maybe I’ll consider worshipping him.”

The Bishop frowned.

“What question?”

Evan replied,

“I asked him why I’m so handsome.

He took one look at me,

felt ashamed,

and split in half on the spot.”

The Bishop’s eyes turned to ice.

“Blasphemer.

You deserve death.”

He didn’t order Brutus to act.

He attacked personally.

One of his fingers

elongated like a rope,

shooting toward Evan

to bind him.

Evan didn’t move—

as if ready to surrender.

But just before the rope touched him,

a golden cocoon

formed around him.

FangBro appeared beside him,

pulling Evan into his protective cocoon.

The Bishop exerted a bit of force

and shattered the cocoon—

but Evan was gone.

🌸 Escape and Reinforcements

Outside the temple,

Evan and FangBro

burst out of a flowerbed.

The Bishop and Brutus

rushed out after them—

only to see Security Bureau officers

charging into the temple.

Bishop Rowan shouted,

“You dare trespass into a holy temple?!

Do you intend to wage war

against the Church of Evolution?!”

The captain didn’t bother replying.

“Take them!”

Officers surged forward.

The captain engaged the Bishop—

both Butterfly‑tier,

their strengths evenly matched.

But the other officers

were forced back repeatedly

by Brutus Kane.

Brutus was a Cocoon‑tier evolver,

and several officers attacking him

were Cocoon‑tier as well—

yet he overwhelmed them.

His strength was monstrous.

He swung his greatsword

with unstoppable force.

Then he roared—

his skin turning molten red,

his power surging again.

Combined with his heavy black armor

and towering 2.5‑meter frame,

he looked like a walking war machine.

“That’s insanely strong,”

FangBro muttered—

with a hint of envy.

He was Cocoon‑tier too,

but nowhere near this level.

Evan nodded.

“Yeah… that’s excessive.

Almost unbeatable at the same tier.”

The last time he saw someone this strong

was when he looked in the mirror.

Wendy said,

“He’s not a normal evolver.

He’s a mutant.

The Church really has developed something.”

“A mutant?!”

Evan was stunned.

Had the Church of Evolution

really found a way

to mass‑produce mutated evolvers?

Wendy nodded.

“If I’m not mistaken,

he’s a patient with XYY syndrome—

also called ‘super‑male syndrome.’

Men with this condition

have an extra Y chromosome.

They tend to be tall,

naturally strong,

and prone to aggression.

After mutation,

these traits are amplified.”

“If the Church can mass‑produce

mutated evolvers like him…

they’d be unstoppable.”

🎯 A Plan to Take Down the Mutant

Evan glanced at FangBro.

“Should we help?”

“How?”

FangBro stared at the war‑god‑like Brutus,

feeling a bit intimidated.

Evan whispered a few words.

FangBro’s eyes lit up.

A moment later,

FangBro carried Evan upward

using his movement skill,

bringing Evan face‑to‑face

with the towering Brutus.

Evan pulled out

the Wailer’s Head,

aimed it at Brutus,

and shouted:

“Hey! Look over here!”

Brutus instinctively looked up—

and locked eyes with the artifact.

He froze instantly.

The Wailer’s Head,

a Tier‑2 relic,

normally only disrupted Cocoon‑tier evolvers

for a moment.

But on Brutus,

it worked exceptionally well.

His eyes glazed over.

His body slackened.

The officers seized the chance,

swarming him

and tying him up tightly.

With Brutus subdued,

the officers quickly captured

Cleric Samuel Price

and rushed to assist their captain

in surrounding Bishop Rowan.

🧒 Rescuing the Children

Seeing the situation stabilizing,

Evan asked FangBro:

“Did you find the children?”

“In the basement.

I’ll take you.”

They burrowed underground.

In the chamber,

Evan saw the children in the cage—

their eyes empty,

their expressions lifeless.

He smashed the statue’s head

with a single punch,

then tore the iron chains apart

and opened the cage.

Only after repeated reassurance

did the children slowly walk out.

Outside the cage,

their faces finally showed

a faint spark of life.
