Armipotent

That explained why The Adventurer Guild still existed. He was not expecting the rise of another two God Ranks after the God Rank.

"Also, it's no longer the Eight Gods alliance, but the Seven God alliance. The Goddess of Light, Goddess Lunea left the alliance after the game," Tisha corrected Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang raised his right eyebrow. That was a clue regarding Lune, "Where could we find her?"

"I heard The Temple of Light moved to another continent where the elf is. They moved to the Aidan Continent. That's the info we have for The Temple of Light," Tisha was curious why he was interested in Goddess Lunea, but she refrained herself from asking. She told herself that her duty was to answer, not to ask.

"I see…" That was a good clue for him to meet her, "Then we don't need to worry about those adventurers bothering us, right?'

"Unfortunately, no. Those greedy bastards will move as long as big money is involved. One of the main reasons we lost the fight so badly was because of those adventurers as well. For them, it does not matter who manages the city. They will only listen to who pays them the most," Tisha answered in a bitter tone.

"The Temple might post a quest to kill us if they know that we come to kill them," Ron added in agreement.

"Tch, Not now or in the past, they are quite bothersome," From the situation, he had to fight the adventurers as well, 'Let's clear their force nearby and look for the God Rank directly.' He thought of destroying the temple one by one, forcing God to come after him instead of looking for them. But if he did so, The Adventurer Guild might get involved. Not that it was a big issue, but it was just a hassle that he had to fight them as well.

"Let's pick up the pace," He caught Maru and Kaltum on the waist and flew.

The Harmony Temple

The Archbishop and The Clown just finished their meeting two hours ago, and they held another meeting because of another emergency.

"We lost contact with The Templar Knight as well. We told them to send a report every ten minutes, and they stopped sending the report half an hour ago. We tried to contact them, but it was futile, and their names also disappeared from the list. It's safe to assume they are dead," Archbishop Aslin delivered the news.

The Templar Knight was the top elite of The Harmony Temple. A squad with a Demi-God Rank and nine Legendary Ranks were killed. This was not a small issue anymore.

"Is it possible for Beast God to meddle in this battle?" The Seventh Clown thought of the possibility. The only way for someone to kill the Demi-God Rank easily was The God Rank. It was a reasonable conjecture since two strong Demi-God Ranks died in one day.

"This might be out of our jurisdiction. We have to consult this matter with The Lord God. If a God Rank gets involved, this is not something we can solve anymore. Only God can kill those heretic Gods!" The Archbishop of The Sun Temple agreed with The Seventh Clown's guess. It was most likely a God Rank was involved in this war.

The Archbishop and The Clown were The Demi-God Rank. They were a little stronger than the commander who died at the Orin Peak and also the Demi-God Rank Templar Knight. However, they could not achieve what their enemy did, killing The Demi-God Rank without them being able to report back. They assumed only God Rank could achieve that.

"Let's speak to…." Before Archbishop Aslin concluded the meeting, the door was knocked five times. He could tell by the knocking sound it was an urgent matter.

"Come in!"

A Bishop in his early fifties rushed into the meeting room, "I have received a report that beastmen from the four Major Tribes are approaching the city. Four beastmen and one person that we can't identify are heading to the city right now."

The three exchanged glances as they were surprised by the report. A human and four beastmen from the four major tribes. That was an interesting combination, "What's their rank?"

"The beastmen are Maru The Flaming who reached Demi-God Rank. Ron of the Jade Eagle and Tisha of Frost Tigra. The fourth beastmen was the genius Blacksmith Kaltum. As for the human, we can't use detection on him. We assume he has an artifact to block Detection."

"Or he is The God Rank who killed our people," Archbishop Aslin mentioned the second possibility, "But a human God Rank. We should know if there's another God Rank besides those two from The Adventurer Guild…."

"What do you guys think?"

"This is indeed confusing. Are they coming sneakily?" Archbishop of The Sun Temple asked.

The Bishop shook his head, "They are flying."

The Seventh Clown got up from his chair, "I will post a quest in the Adventurer Guild, and you two contact Goddess Rubia and God Axel for the worst scenario. Lord Clown is busy in Aidan Continent. He can't come even if I speak to him."

The two Archbishops nodded in agreement as The Seventh Clown beckoned his hand to The Bishop, "You follow me. We need their face descriptions for the quest."

The Seventh Clown and The Bishop walked through the long hallway, and soon they got out of the temple. It was a temporary temple as they used the former lord's castle as The Temple.

The two came out of the castle, and they got a surprise as they stepped out of the castle. A human carried two beastmen and a beast carried another beastmen, landed in front of them. Ten meters away exactly from the entrance.

"Is this the temple?" Tang Shaoyang asked Tisha.

"This is the temple…." Tisha's voice faded as she spotted The Seventh Clown.

"It's the Clown Apostle! Get ready to fight!" Maru broke free from Tang Shaoyang's hand and was ready to fight.

Tang Shaoyang looked at the person at the entrance, wearing a white clown mask. He remembered those masks, and he almost died to the person who had the same mask. The difference was there was a number on the forehead mask, and it said Seven.

"It's the Seventh Clown! He is one of The Clown God's apostles, and he is the seventh strongest apostle!" Ron added at the end.

"Apostle right away. This is good!" Tang Shaoyang activated The Wrath Slayer and also The Dragon Transformation. Even though it says Demi-God Rank, he went all out because the person wearing a clown mask had an apostle title.

The aura-less human suddenly released a terrifying aura

that even Maru and the others subconsciously took a few steps away from Tang Shaoyang.
