BXBX NOVEL Chapter 417 - Prioritizing
Adrian who saw the demigod being flung like a bug shuddered as he knew not even Pann could hold a candle against the dark god. If Pann is sent there, then they would basically be sending them to his death. Even worse, Pann is currently weakened. He will not be able to exert his full power.
"Is that how powerful a god could be?" Adrian asked as he saw the recording.
"That is not even half if its real power. The dark god has yet to fully materialize and control its power. If it did then the land it is standing on now would have already terraformed to become the dark god\'s domain. A god could only exert its full power at their own domain after all." Koronn stated in a grave tone.
"If that is the case then how are we going to fight it? Even if a hundred demigods joined forces, it would still be lacking to kill that dark god." Adrian stated.
"We only won the war back then because of the sacrifice that the Asmodians made. There are no more Asmodians left in the world. Well, we have you even if you are just half, but you are still useless at this point in time.
I will try and contact all the demigods that are currently alive. Let us just hope that they are open to teaming up against that dark god." Koronn stated but Adrian felt offended and helpless.
"I should focus on helping Ascalor first as he can bend dimensions easily. He might be able to send the dark god back to its divine realm with the help of all the Daemos." Adrian stated as he turned back and prepared for his battle with Cristobal.
"I hope you can easily beat that punk. If I could help, then I would have but the emergence of a dark god is irritating." Koronn stated as he looked at the approaching Bronx.
"You could have said it at a much lighter tone than telling him that he is useless. Even we could not locate where the Asmodians died. If we did then he might have become a pure Asmodian by now." Bronx stated as he knew that the young demon is already doing his best.
"You do know that I do not like sugar coating words because it is unnecessary. I am not the type to worry about that brat\'s feelings given the state we are in now." Koronn replied.
"You say that, but your tone was full of care when you told him that. You know that the dark god would send out a kill order for him if they knew he was half Asmodian.
The dark gods still fear them because of the havoc they caused upon them. The very blood of the Asmodians is the bane of their existence as it is from the primordial god where the Asmodians come from." Bronx stated.
"That is why we need him to get stronger and opt to get Ascalor back in shape. If we fail, then our only hope would be the brat and that is too much to bear for someone just born." Koronn stated as he gazed upon the projections once more.
"You do have a soft and caring side." Bronx stated as he chuckled a bit.
=====
Adrian sent whispers once more to his friends because facing Cristobal alone would be suicide. Levin Cloud immediately agreed. Kabrakan also agreed as he is now missing fighting with his friends. Peridot also agreed but she needed to be picked up from the east part of the central continent as he just arrived from the eastern continent.
The father and daughter duo, Vayu and Soleil, immediately agreed once they heard that they would subjugate Cristobal. They owe Adrian for helping them with their mission with rescuing Lauma and now they could pay him back. Creepysoo also joined as he said he was bored as nothing exciting happens when he is just by himself.
Solstice and Lycan could not join as they are busy with the subjugation of the remaining faceless ones that are masquerading as vampires and werewolves. They are also considered nobles of their respective kingdoms, so they are joining the punitive force to stop the dark god.
The guild master of Evergreen, Anastacia, is having second thoughts as she needed to heal her master and restore some of her guild\'s power. They are still considered a top guild, but they could not compete with the other guilds as their base of operations were Neo Alfheim.
The Evergreen guild would have been the first guild to become the owners of a territory if Neo Alfheim did not fall. The Evergreen guild\'s contributions to Neo Alfheim are already high and they only needed to do a few more guild missions to earn a plot of land but fate is cruel.
Adrian decided to not hide the details of his quest to Anastacia and told her that they will face a warlock who consumed a part of a dark god. This immediately made her weigh her options because this warlock could be a clue in defeating the dark god that spawned.
Adrian also told Anastacia that he would help them in any quest that she wants in exchange for her help. Anastacia would have agreed to that terms, but she told Adrian that twenty epic talismans of differing effects would be a better compensation. She did not know that she will regret her choice later but agreed to finally help.
"So, my group has me, Levin Cloud, Kabrakan, Creepysoo, Peridot, Vayu, and Soleil. Anastacia would come with ten of her guild members. We have eighteen fighters in total. That is still a small number compared to a real raid team, but warlocks excel at killing off groups. We cannot come with a large force." Adrian stated as he knew that he could keep everyone alive if their group only numbered below twenty.
He used Glamour on himself and decided to pick up each of his friends. They are now in a race against time because it is not on their side right now which is ironic.
