Omega Summoner

Chapter 1368: Serpent in Hibernation V

The sudden transformation of the God Shesmu created a powerful wave of energy that made all those that do not worship him weaken. It not only affected the area that is near him, but it covered the whole city where the Temple of Horus sits. The players that were near the Shadow of Apophis is smothered by this oppressive energy.

The players near the world boss were suddenly made to taste the sands below them. The only one that was not that affected was Frey because she summoned an aspect of the Goddess Freyja. Frey noticed that the energy pressing them all down is divine power and it was amplified by the followers of Shesmu.

Frey knew that they might not be able to win if the others does not attack the God Shesmu with all their might. The only problem is that the followers of Shesmu turned into bestial creatures that could go toe to toe against a high ranker. The number of the followers of Shesmu were also increased during the time that they planned for the attack.

”We must defeat the Shadow of Apophis before it turns back to night.” Frey thought as she could see the sun setting already as the fight took quite a long time.

Just as Frey thought that she would be safe, the God Shesmu in his beast form suddenly appeared before Frey in an intimidating manner. Frey immediately lost color to her face as she immediately knew that this will be the time that she will die. She will not close her eyes and accept it willing though as she wants to inflict damage on the God Shesmu before she bites the dust.

”Foolish warrior! Accept your death!” The God Shesmu stated as his claw headed for Freyʼs body.

Frey clenched her teeth and charged towards her doom as she wants to at least pierce the body of the God Shesmu. When Freyʼs spear touched the body of the God Shesmu, she saw notification that stated that her spear lost durability but it was not yet broken. She knew that she must not destroy her weapon as having it fixed will be easier compared to having another be forged.

She recalled her weapon back into her inventory, but her grit will not let her accept defeat. Knowing her death, Frey pushed all the energy in her body that was granted by the Aspect of Freyja. She wanted to at least take the arm of the God Shesmu but realized that it was futile when she barely scratched his body.

”Is this how I pathetically die?” Frey thought as it was only the energy of the Aspect of Freyja that protects her from the damage of the God Shesmu.

When the energy of the Aspect of Freyja got depleted, Frey already knew where she will end up and finally closed her eyes. She then felt a foreign energy overcome her body as she did not receive the death notification. She opened her eyes and is shocked to see being princess carried by a person that she is familiar with.

”Equinox?!” Frey exclaimed in surprise as she did not expect to be saved by Equinox.

Even the other players noticed that the sudden suppression of the God Shesmu got minimized when Adrian arrived. In fact, Adrian is not the only one that arrived at the scene as he also took Levin Cloud and Creepysoo with him. The players thought that they will not interfere or take part unless they finished the mission that they were doing.

”I thought you said that you guys will not participate?” Frey stated.

”A thanks for saving you would be nice. I will explain after we are truly safe.” Adrian stated as he suddenly teleported with Frey away from their location.

A few moments later, the mouth of the God Shesmu appeared on the location that they were previously on. They appeared near Levin Cloud as he already summoned the Tree of Life and Death in the location. Adrian then gently placed Frey down as her body is on the verge of breaking down from severe overexertion.

”I shall deal with the God Shesmu while Creepysoo will deal with the monsters. Your job will be to keep everyone safe. Awraka will deal with the missing Followers of Apophis that we were following earlier.” Adrian stated as he suddenly flew to the sky summoning his Primordial Armament: Twin Daggers and changing his current attire to his assassin form.

”Can I get an explanation?” Frey asked Levin Cloud but the latter is still star struck as she was one of the streamers that he actively watches.

”We were not supposed to come here but we came due to following people called the Followers of Apophis. Not all of us are here though as the others are still doing our main mission. You guys already know of the Followers of Apophis, right?” Levin Cloud stated.

”You guys said that they are fanatic worshippers that offer up their own flesh to summon a body for the Distorted God Apophis to descend. Is your main mission related to that?” Frey answered and Levin Cloud gave her a thumbs up.

”Kind of. Anyways, we followed them as we wanted to know where their hideout was but it seems we were led here.” Levin Cloud replied.

”I am actually glad that you guys arrived as now we might have a fighting chance.” Frey stated as she believed that they might be able to turn this around.

”Not really. Even he agrees that we have a higher chance in losing if the Distorted God Apophis is summoned. We were barely able to keep that thing at bay with all we got. If that thing is summoned, then all of us here will get wiped out.” Levin Cloud stated honestly.

Levin Cloud is not the super optimistic person even though he is optimistic, but he is also a realist which he picked up from his best friend. He also knows that they were only able to defeat the summoned clone of the Distorted God Apophis the other day because they were aided by the Sun God Ra.

They only dealt half its health even with fighting to the utmost and the other half was blasted into nothingness by the Sun God Ra.

Levin Cloud knows that their chances of winning will lessen without the aid of the Sun God Ra. It is also the reason why they split their teams to investigate the dealings of the Followers of Apophis since they are the ones that could summon a clone and the restricted sun energy. A

Adrian, Levin Cloud, Creepysoo and the shadow unit (the one headed by Awraka) are the ones handling the Followers of Apophis. The restricted sun energy is spearheaded by Peridot, Vayu, Soleil, Ark and ten more guild members that have the ability to fly. The remaining ones were on guard duty for the Sun God Ra as they cannot leave him unattended.

”Let me heal you up. It also seems that you are turning red. Are you by chance poisoned as well?” Levin Cloud asked as he could see that Frey was turning a bit red.

Frey did not reply as she just nodded her head but she actually just remembered how she was carried in a princess carry manner. It was the first time that someone actually did that for her in the real world and the game world. She naturally blushed but shook it off as she thought it was unavoidable, but she still remembers the feeling.

”Thanks. I want to make a full recovery as I want to be able to fight once more. I can aid him in his battle with the God Shesmu.” Frey replied as she saw Adrian battling the God Shesmu along with three of his soulbounds.

”Fine but do not think that it will be easy. Your body is basically screaming at me that it needs detailed help.” Levin Cloud replied as he started his treatment.

The sudden appearance of the Tree of Life and Death alleviated some of the difficulties of the players. The healers got amplified healing power as well as mana regeneration. The normal players got increased stats and health regeneration. Those that are attuned with life and death energy are given the biggest boost out of all of them.

”Mr. Creepysoo, the followers of Apophis are starting their chants at a secluded place.” Awraka reported as the shadow unit managed to locate the missing followers of Apophis.

”Creepysoo is just fine. Kill them if you can as we must not let them finish their summoning ritual. I shall deal with the carnage here as we know that more bodies to sacrifice will mean that the body of the clone will be larger.” Creepysoo replied as he opened the Necronomicon and summoned all his undead knights.

”Let us start the party because the dead must rise up to enjoy their last minutes on the mortal plane! God Descent: Baron Samedi!” Creepysoo stated.
