Chapter 1365 Serpent In Hibernation II
Adrian and Levin Cloud are the representatives for their guild as each guild needs to have two present in the meeting. The top guilds present number to about thirty and some middle rank guilds as well as guilds in the western continent. All of the representatives looked at Adrian and Levin Cloud at a different light because they know who they are.
In fact, Adrian and Levin Cloud could rival the popularity of the ranking country representatives because their guild destroyed another guild that is five times their size. All the top guilds knew that even if the full force of the Fallen Knights guild were to come at the Pantheon guild then they would be decimated as easily.
The top guilds thought that they named their guild because they are being boastful as Pantheon is a collective term for gods in a certain area. Not one guild thinks that anymore as they know that one needs to at least be a god\'s representative to even go against the Pantheon guild. They have solidified their status as a top guild despite not being in the guild rankings.
Adrian listened to the meeting proper and frowned as the guilds were just basically fighting over who will be the first to attack. They did not want to even unite at all as they were all going for profits. The guilds at the lower end are also of the same situation as Adrian as they were basically being told to be cannon fodder.
Adrian listened to his own thoughts as he knew that listening to them ramble is useless. He is piecing all the clues that he received according to the Shadow of Apophis. Adrian thought that there must be another quest to go against the Shadow of Apophis that does not include the Sun God Ra. He believes that a fragment of unknown power should be able to split the Shadow of Apophis once more should they lose.
"Uhmm…Equinox? Are you listening? We were asking your opinion." A member of a top guild that Adrian does not know asked as he was the one that called for the meeting.
"Sorry? What were you asking? I could not here anything because all of you were prattling on who would be first to attack. If this is what you called my guild for then it would have been better if you did not invite me." Adrian stated which made the room go quiet.
The smaller guilds were looking at Adrian like their savior as they really wanted to say that as well. They cannot do so because they do not have the standing to say it like Adrian does. The top guilds that are too high on their horse saw this as a provocation to their prestige but they cannot openly rebuke Adrian.
"You should calm down. I am pretty sure that they did not want to make their talks about their desires. I mean, we just came here to see their plan of action as all of us agreed. We cannot even go to the Shadow of Apophis even if we wanted to." Levin Cloud stated.
"If your guild did not come here to work with us then why did you even bother coming?" One of the guild masters shouted as he seems to come from one of the top guilds in the Top 20.
"I came here to offer my knowledge on the Shadow of Apophis. If you do not want that then me and my vice guild master would just return back to the place that we are protecting. Also, I have helped a lot of you since I know that some of you used my territory as a way point to the western continent.
If I did not give you guys a way to transport yourselves to the western continent then it might have taken longer for all of you to even get here. Also, me coming here is already taking time in my important matter but you guys are just wasting it to argue on who will get first attack." Adrian stated which made the hearts of the guilds from the smaller guilds quiver.
All the smaller guilds expressed their dismay once Adrian said his piece. The top guilds could suddenly see that they do not have the control over the lower guilds. In fact, even they know that they were all fighting over who will get profits. They were not even thinking that they will lose even though it is a world quest that they would go after.
"I agree with Equinox." Anastacia stated as she finally talked since she was letting Mariposa do the talking earlier.
"You all talk too much even though some of your guilds have never even fought a dark god before. Just because your guilds rose to the top, you think that you can dictate how everyone moves." Siegfried stated as he also thought that they talk too much since he is a man of action.
"I also agree with Equinox. The Valor guild does not just move because of profit after all. Pandemonium is also another world for all of us. The destruction of a distorted god is not something that we can think lowly of. Have you all forgotten about what happened to the empire?" Ain added.
When Ain told the guilds about what happened to the great empire that ruled over the central continent, all the guilds suddenly turned solemn as guilds that were in direct relationship with the empire took a huge loss. Some of the guilds even disbanded due to the heavy loss on their sides.
"Since all of us have finally something to be united about, I think we should listen to what Equinox will say. I have also got the reports from the western guilds that joined us about their findings on the Shadow of Apophis. I hope that all of you read it and add information that you know." Faust suddenly interjected as he sent the findings to the group chat.
Adrian read the findings of the western continent guilds and applauded them for their work. The information about the Shadow of Apophis on the papers are all correct and Adrian just needed to add more. He waited for everyone to finish reading the document before he started to add in more of the details.
When Adrian added more details to the presented paper, the intelligent members of the guilds suddenly thought the same thing. The intelligent members of the guilds all thought of one thing and that is Equinox know more about the world of Pandemonium than them.
They knew that he has access to information since he is the Champion of the Twin Gods, but this level of detail is not something that can be accessed with just books or records. They suddenly shuddered when they thought that he could talk to gods themselves but even the other Champions or Envoys said that they barely get any words from their gods.
If they knew that Adrian is actually in a casual talking relationships with gods then they minds might get blown or storm the Atlas Inc. headquarters to say that they have favoritism. Unlike records that need time to decipher, gods can easily tell the whole story as long as they like you.
"Thank you for the information about the weakness of the Shadow of Apophis. A great thanks for also sharing us what is the difference between a dark god and a distorted god." Faust stated as they only formed a hypothesis that the world boss is weak to anything related to the sun. They also learned something new about the dark gods and a more terrifying version of them which are the distorted gods.
"You told us all this information but you are not going to join in on the attack?" Mariposa asked.
"We are currently doing an important mission. Once we are done with the mission then we will also join you guys. So at least make sure that you guys have defeated the Shadow of Apophis before we finish that. Also, a warning to those who are thinking of the Shadow of Apophis lightly.
The Distorted God Apophis has the power of a Primordial God when in its complete form. Primordial Gods are the most powerful in existence." Adrian stated as they left since Cairo called for them.
