Omega Summoner

Chapter 1495: The Hunt for the Snake’s Descendant I

The scythe armament is the one that changed the most as it now gives him perfect invisibility. The perfect invisibility that the scythe gives basically gives Adrian lots of flexibility because he will no longer be exposed when he gets damaged. As long as Adrian does not attack or use another skill, Adrian will be completely invisible.

The name of the skill called Universal Threat is definitely something that rings true. Adrian also liked the fact that the Burning Shadows skill is now a wide area skill that spreads it around him making it more useful when fighting clumps of enemies. The first skill is now more defensive as well which means the scythe armament is not just for attacking.

”Greetings, master.” A small whisp with the voice of Paradox stated.

”Hello, Paradox. Is the evolution of the armaments also a part of your evolution as well?” Adrian asked.

”They have always been ready to evolve, master. You were not able to handle them back then which is why I have temporarily sealed their evolutions. They are now more powerful than before. Feel free to wield them to your heartʼs content.” Paradox stated.

Adrian nodded with satisfaction as it was Paradox that managed to get him the ability to summon armaments without cooldown. If Adrian did not get Paradox back then, he would still have cooldowns per armament and cannot switch freely like what he is doing now.

Adrian returned back to the mortal realm as he exited his soul chamber. Cairo suddenly appeared before him looking a bit worried. Adrian could already feel that something is definitely going to happen that is not going to make him happy.

”I thought I still had time to look for Doduʼs evolution requirements, but it seems that will not be the case.” Adrian thought to himself.

”We have a problem, guild master.” Cairo stated as he escorted Adrian to the audience room with others.

The audience hall of the Temple of the Sun is filled with not just Adrian and his friends but also some avatars of gods. Adrian could feel that all of them here is at the level of the High Priestess Estet. Some were not yet at that level, and some are injured to the point that even Levin Cloud finds it difficult to treat them with one spell.

”Why are there so many avatars here? I did not know that we were a place where they could find shelter.” Adrian stated which made all the other avatars glare at him.

”Watch your mouth demon! This is the Temple of the Sun God Ra and not your Church of the Twin Gods.” One of the wounded avatars stated.

Adrian could already guess what happened and why they came here. They were hoping for asylum because they know that only the Sun God Ra can help them against the Shadow of Apophis. Adrian found it funny that they were only running to the Sun God Ra now when they have nothing left.

”From the looks of it, all of you are no longer in your temple as it was destroyed. You came here in hope of being granted power by the Sun God Ra as he is the father of the gods that you serve. The fact that all of you only came now when you could have gotten to the location weeks ago when the Sun God Ra awakened means you guys have nothing left.” Adrian stated the cold hard facts to them.

All the weakened avatars are angry at Adrianʼs statements, but they know that deep down that he was right. They are basically running with their tails between their legs as they were beaten black and blue. The temples that they serve and the cities they protected are now ruins because of the Shadow of Apophis.

”I think that should be enough for now, Champion Equinox. I shall scold my wayward children later. I called you here because they have brought some alarming news that even I did not know.” The Sun God Ra stated as his voice drowned out the avatars that were going to have a verbal battle with Adrian.

”So, what is the problem?” Adrian asked.

”It seems that the Shadow of Apophis is looking for something.” Cairo stated.

”Something? Is it not its body fragments?” Adrian exclaimed as he knows that the Shadow of Apophis is looking for the other parts of its body.

”I phrased that wrong. They are not looking for something but someone. There are lots of reports that the Followers of Apophis are looking for a person. They were only looking for that person in the western continent at first, but it seems some of them started to spread to the central continent.” Cairo stated as he heard that from an avatar that lives near the great port.

”Huh!?” Adrian suddenly stated as all of them looked at him.

”Is there something that you would like to share, Champion Equinox?” The Sun God Ra asked.

”If they are looking for a person then it might be a possible vessel.” Adrian stated.

”That is impossible! The Distorted God Apophis is not able to create its kin because it does not even have humanoid form.” One of the avatars stated but the Sun God Ra looked concerned which made all the avatars that were about to refute Adrian go silent.

”If the Sun God Ra is silent then that means it is possible. The Sun God Ra has a perfect vessel which is Prince Amun. It is not farfetched to say that the Distorted God Apophis could also have a vessel perfect for it.

The Distorted God Apophis and the Sun God Ra are reflections of each other after all. If one can do it, then the other can surely do so as well. It might able be the reason why the followers of Apophis are targeting cities more compared to temples.” Adrian stated.

”What if like Prince Amun, the vessel that is perfect for Apophis is also in the central continent?” Cairo stated.

”That would mean that the followers of that snake have already slithered into the central continent as we speak. They now have a head start compared to us and the avatars cannot leave the western continent as they are tied down to it. Fortunately, that is the good news as we will not have any fight with an avatar.” Adrian stated.

”If what you said is true, then I worry that we will be late. All the avatars here that came to me shall be tasked with looking for the vessel in the western continent. Can I ask the Pantheon Guild to be the ones to handle the central continent?” The Sun God Ra stated.

”They would not be enough to search the whole central continent. Let the Briar Rose guild also help in the search. If the Sun God Ra gives us permission.” The guild leader of the Briar Rose guild stated as she came to the audience hall with Frey.

It seems that Frey was still here in the Temple of the Sun God as she had the perfect place to commune with the Goddess Freyja. She wanted to join the search as well because she wants to thank the Sun God Ra for his assistance. It was only the guild leader of the Briar Rose guild that spoke up as she is feeling shy.

”Your guild has also gained my trust which is why I shall also permit you to search as well. We must find the vessel of Apophis before the followers do.” The Sun God Ra stated.

”How do we find the vessel though? Will there be a sign that gives us a hint?” Levin Cloud asked.

”We have many scales of Apophis here in the temple. Bring one scale with you as it will give off a faint glow when the vessel is nearby. The vessel should also be quite weak when in the sun as they will have the same qualities as the god that they can house.” The Sun God Ra stated as he summoned the scales of the Shadow of Apophis to them.

”What are we going to do if we find the vessel though?” Creepysoo asked.

”It is better if we kill the vessel.” Adrian stated which shocked all of the players there.

”You are the Champion of the Twin Gods and a follower of the Goddess Gaia, yet you want to kill the vessel? What if it is just a child?” The guild leader of the Briar Rose guild stated.

”The vessel will die either way if we do not get to them first. Do you not know what happens when a god enters a mortalʼs body?” Adrian stated but the guild leader of the Briar Rose guild fell silent.

”When a god enters a mortalʼs body permanently, they will devour that mortalʼs soul so that they can fully integrate with the body. By doing so, the vessel will cease to exist and will not even flow into the cycle of life and death. Their whole being will just vanish.” Adrian stated.
