The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 708: Infiltrating Atlas

The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar and the Patriarch of the Aegon Family were shocked as they heard those words, and when they turned to the Scarlet King, he softly nodded.

”Horus Ekleipsis is not on the side of the Inferno Daemon Race. He is on the side of the Depravita Race.”

Cainʼs voice was cold, and there was a flash of trepidation he could not hide as the implications of those words affected more than just two continents.

The interaction with the monster was enough for the Scarlet King to understand the nature of the Depravita Race, and it was clear they would not be willing to share the world.

”Should we report this to the Imperial Court...”

The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar had not even finished his sentence when he realized how ridiculous his words were, and he shook his head with disappointment. He would have to be a fool not to understand by this point that The Organization, or more accurately Horus, had people in Eden who had been blocking support to the north and left them to their luck.

”Other than the people in this room, no one will know. It is not a matter of trust, but sometimes knowing too much is dangerous if you donʼt have enough strength.”

Cainʼs eyes were sharp as he uttered those words, and the intent behind them made it clear it was not a suggestion but an order.

General Casidius, the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, Collapsing Lightning Duke, and Angar all nodded as they understood the seriousness of the situation and just how much danger people would get into if they knew about it.

Cain nodded as he saw the four warriors understood the type of situation they found themselves in.

”I doubt Horus Ekleipsis will march into the Gaia Continent alone. I am sure he is powerful, but if he steps into the territory of the Godslayer Humankind Empire, I will be able to mobilize enough forces to kill him.

However, the same can be said the other way around. If I go into the Inferno Daemon Empire to kill the man, he will mobilize the full power of the empire, and I would be lucky to even escape with my life, much less take his.”

The three True Titans and God frowned and could not help but nod as they knew Cainʼs words were true. He was immensely powerful, and his mastery of the Law of Space and assassination skills would allow him to infiltrate the Inferno Daemon Empire. However, killing Horus would be a completely different subject.

The moment the True Gods of the empire were mobilized, the Scarlet King would be besieged on all sides, and just escaping would be a titanic task.

”Since a direct approach will not be effective, we must adopt a more subtle approach. Everybody in the Inferno Daemon Empire thinks General Casidius is dead, giving us the chance to use his knowledge and infiltrate the Atlas Continent.”

The Collapsing Lightning Duke and the rest nodded as they heard that. No one would be on the lookout for a dead man, allowing them to use the Godʼs knowledge and resources.

”Angar, you are the best at infiltration and espionage. You will accompany General Casidius back to the Atlas Continent, infiltrate the underworld, and search for clues about the moves that Horus is making.”

Angarʼs face grew solemn as he heard the task, but there was no fear in his eyes as he clasped his hands and nodded. No matter what, they needed to learn Horusʼ plans since they involved the entire worldʼs safety.

Cain was pleased to see the determination and solemnity in the manʼs eyes, and then his eyes grew cold.

”I understand that the mission is dangerous, but I will constantly surveil your A.I. Chip, accessing all its information. If you find yourself in a dangerous situation, I will come immediately. Although killing Horus is beyond my current capabilities, I can reach any point on the Atlas Continent in less than twelve hours and kill all those that stand in my path, even True Gods.”

General Casidiusʼ eyes narrowed as he heard those words, and while Cain was not looking at him, it was clear to whom that coldness was directed. The God did not say a word but softly nodded as he understood the hidden message in the Scarlet Kingʼs words.

Angar noticed the silent interaction between the duo and only smiled as he felt more relaxed. After all, infiltrating an enemy continent full of people who wanted to kill you was not easy, and the protection of an epic entity like the Scarlet King would come in handy.

Cain could see General Casidiusʼs true nature and knew the man was willing to cooperate since it involved the safety of the Inferno Daemon Empire, but that did not mean he would blindly trust him.

After seeing that the God understood his message, Cain waved his hand and brought forth a 21 Revolution Flame.

”I need you at your peak for this mission, so take this as an early show of my gratitude.”

General Casidius took a deep breath as he saw that flame. He already understood its power and knew it might be the key to helping him break through the God Tier and become a True God, reaching a battle power that surpassed the limit of the Peak Divine Ascension Rank.

However, he was not a fool and knew just how deep the schemes and plays of the young man were. The Scarlet King drew people toward him with his divine talent and power, and every time they did something good, he would reward them with gifts beyond their dreams.

Before they knew it, they would have become addicted to the Scarlet Kingʼs favor, and the idea of losing it was beyond terrifying.

”Ahhhh, I cannot refuse. I appreciate it.”

General Casidius only sighed as he understood the dangers of the mission and bowed to Cain before the Tribulation Enhancement carried on.
