Omega Summoner

Chapter 588: Inside the Tower

Adrian could not wait to verify the information about the tower but even he knew it is risky getting inside without being prepared. Adrian waited until the Paladin guards of the tower lowered since the attack against the dark god will commence a few days later.

”They would try the expedition again in two days. I just want to safely get inside and see the Asmodian if he really is a prisoner there. A clue to kill the dark god would change the game as killing the dark god would be different to banishing it from this plane of existence.” Adrian stated as saw the tower in one of the rooftops looking like a human.

”Charon, sneak inside of the tower and verify my claim.” Adrian stated as Charon became Incorporeal.

Charon is now invisible and could pass through objects without much difficulty. The Lifeless Lord is about to enter the tower by phasing through the walls, but he got blasted with holy attribute light magic. The whole tower walls are actually covered in it which makes it impossible for undead to phase through.

Charonʼs attempt at phasing is also met with an alarm as one of the guards suddenly left its position to see the disturbance in the shield. Adrian had no choice but to tell Charon to retreat as the guards are on their way.

”An undead could not get through because holy magic exists. It means that only I can go inside in my soul form. The bad thing is that I would be seen even if I am invisible. I also need to try after the sun sets or else being covert will be difficult.” Adriaan muttered as he thought of a game plan.

Adrian does not want to go in the day because of tight security with higher chance of being exposed. Sneaking inside at night will be easier and guards are usually tired during the night. He is about to plan how he will sneak inside the tower at night, but he saw a weird carriage stop in front of the tower.

The carriage is actually the carriage of the Pope of the Church of Light, but she is not inside. It is actually a bishop that is inside of the carriage. After the bishop came outside of the carriage, his guards immediately started transporting the bishopʼs stuff which is not a lot.

”I have a bad feeling about this. I need to listen to their conversation.” Adrian stated as he activated Soul Form Manifestation.

”Bishop Bright! The notification of your arrival just arrived yesterday. We have not yet finished cleaning the place.” The priest that is the overseer of the tower stated.

”There is no need to feel alarmed. Her eminence herself has commanded me to come to the tower so that I could get the collected product. We are planning to kill the dark god with the help of our Champion. We just need reassurance that the Champion of Light does not have any impediments of becoming humanityʼs heroes.” Bishop Bright stated as he entered the tower with Adrian following behind them.

Adrian got inside the tower because the guards and the priests were anxious when Bishop Bright suddenly arrived. It worked in his favor, but he suddenly blanked out when he got inside of the tower. Adrian did not expect that the tower is actually heavily guarded.

”Greetings Bishop Bright!” The paladins and priests stated as they all bowed to the bishop in spite of some being higher ranked than him.

”Thank you. I would like on the progress of the blood formation before I retrieve the next vials of blood.” Bishop Bright stated which made the priests shocked.

”But Bishop Bright, we just sent the latest batch about two days ago. If we get anymore then the source will likely die.” One of the priests stated.

”I know but her eminence wants to kill that dark god in order to strengthen the position of the Church of Light. Now that the Church of Life is weakened, humanity puts their faith on us. We should not let them down. But more importantly, it should be us that they look upon for salvation.” Bishop Bright stated as he raised his hands up in the air.

The bishop already has a scary reputation, but he always looked haggard and an insomniac. The eye bags under his eyes are so large that is already half his chin. He is also lanky with his hair swept and kept pristine which ups his fanatic factor.

”This is not a request but an order from her eminence. Draw as much blood as possible. Even if it kills the Asmodian.” Bishop Bright stated which made Adrian hasten his plans.

”Yes, Bishop Bright. We will prepare the tools.” One of the priests stated as they scrambled to get the equipment.

”While you are preparing, I will go and see the Asmodian myself.” Bishop Bright stated as Adrian slowly followed him.

”It is a good thing that everyone in this building are actually humans. There is no sig of an angel in the midst.” Adrian thought as the three signs of an angel being with the crowd is not met.

Adrian could tell if the person is an angel due to three things. One is that angels using the bodies of humans are usually arrogant and have look of disdain against those of ʼlower beingʼ. The second indication is that they release light energy more than normal practitioners of the Church of Light.

The last indication of that there is no angel in the tower is the fact that the priests and paladins look tired. Angels are pushing their host body to their limits and that means that they use the body fully without even resting.

”The teleportation circle is ready, Bishop Bright.” One of the priests stated as she led the bishop to the center of the room with a magic circle etched onto the floor.

”When I return, prepare for the extraction of everything.” Bishop Bright stated as he vanished.
