Chapter 29 Rescue Team
Although I was mentally prepared, I was still surprised by the words of the wise man. Unexpectedly, the prophecy of the narrator, and the Presbyterian Church encountered an unexpected accident. This result made all the people unable to accept it. That was the Presbyterian Church, which was the most powerful (theoretical) summoners. Even if they were not the strongest, they had no experience there, so they had to have some ability, so they were told by the narrator for a few words.
No, no! Xing Tianyu couldn't accept that the narrator had such power no matter what. This must be just a coincidence, or it should be that the narrator knew what was going to happen and cleverly integrated them into his narrator, giving people the feeling that it could manipulate rules and change reality. But in fact, it should only predict what will happen in the past and the future. The reason why Xing Tianyu dared to be so sure was that the actions of the Presbyterian Church had already started many days ago. When he left the Summoner Island last time, the Presbyterian Church was about to set out to summon the Nightmare King, so even if something happened to them, it would have happened a long time ago. The narrator could not change the past, so it was obvious that he just predicted the past.
"So I am the Speaker now?" he asked in disbelief. The gray-robed summoners also showed complicated expressions on their faces, and they said half helplessly and half enviously, "Yes, Speaker, and you are the only elder on the entire Summoner Island now. You have now mastered most of the authority of Summoner Island."
At this moment, the eyes of others looking at Xing Tianyu were even different. What is the concept of the only elder? You should know that in the past, those elders wanted to do something, and they had to seek opinions from other elders and check and balance each other. The power of a single elder is very limited. However, since Xing Tianyu is now the only elder, his words represent the entire elder council. In other words, in theory, he is now a dictator with a word of mouth.
Xing Tianyu was not too excited to realize his power and responsibility. First of all, he is a person who does not have much desire for power. For him, power is far less important than his own strength.
Secondly, although in theory he is now the highest manager of Summoner Island, it is just a theory. Summoner itself is a very loose organization. The Presbyterian Church originally had no strong binding force on ordinary summoners, and it was more similar to the system of a professional guild. However, although he didn't feel much, some people were even more excited than him.
[The Shadow suddenly realized that he had mastered unprecedented power, and whether it was personal strength or the power in his hands, he had reached the top of human beings. Using this power, he could do unprecedented great things. The secular country and human regime could not be compared with what he had mastered. It can be said that at this moment, he had the power to decide the future of mankind. This power made him deeply fascinated, and a kind of ambition arose in his heart.
That's right, this is what my Shadow should do, let me use this power to rule the entire world!]
"Hey, who is talking?" The gray-robed summoners looked at Xing Tianyu in surprise.
Xing Tianyu thought that this narrator was too disgusting. He didn't even think about anything and made such a lot of inner monologues. "Don't worry about that voice, let's talk about the message left by the elders. What is said on it?"
"I think this needs to be accepted by you in person."
The group soon arrived in the parliament hall, and the sage took out a crystal skull from a sealed box.
As soon as the skull was taken out of the box, it immediately made a crazy and terrifying sound, with the sound of wind, screams, and various roars, which sounded like a very chaotic scene.
"Quick, we can't hold on!"
"We're going to be sucked in!"
"Everyone is ready. Once summoned, what awaits us will inevitably be a tough battle!"
Some noisy sounds started to sound.
Then there was a very clear voice, which sounded close at hand, obviously the person who left the message, "Listen, no matter who it is, hearing this voice means that we have been summoned by the Nightmare King to the ancient city of Sakadum. Although we still have the power to fight, it is obviously a lot of danger. Remember! Don't come to us. Remember! Don't come to us! Also, don't move the things in my room."
It was the voice of the witch doctor. Obviously, at the critical moment, he left this message. Xing Tianyu felt relieved after hearing his words. He was originally confused about how to rescue and find the missing elders. Now with this message, he can save these troubles. Since the witch doctor said not to rescue them, it means that the matter is really dangerous, so there is no need to worry about it.
[When Shadow heard this message, she sneered in her heart. Of course, he would not look for the missing elders, and he had no idea from the beginning. After all, he did not want to lose the power in his hands, nor did he want to share it with others. The information in front of him gave him a perfect excuse, so he decided to go with the flow and let the elders die on their own, and he thought to himself.]
As soon as the narrator's words rang, the gray-robed summoners looked at Xing Tianyu's eyes immediately.
Xing Tianyu thought to himself that he was really a damn thing. This narrator is really not serious, so he hurriedly explained, "I don't think so in my heart. Don't listen to that voice. If you don't believe it, ask them, that voice likes to provoke discord."
As he said that, Xing Tianyu pointed at the professor and others.
"Yeah yeah!"
“That’s it.”
"That's right." Several others helped to clear it up, but their tone was not that confident. Because although the narrator liked to make trouble, he was still very accurate in digging out his inner secrets. So several people more or less suspected that Xing Tianyu might really think so.
The gray-robed summoners looked a little relieved after hearing this, but they were still half-believing and half-doubted, "Then is the Speaker ready to find the missing elders?"
Xing Tianyu thought to himself, right? Where can I find this? He thought to himself, no, but felt the vigilant eyes of the few people in front of him, but he didn't say anything when he spoke.
If he really can't say anything, the inner monologue that the narrator just now said for him would not be confirmed, but he was not prepared to just respond in a confused manner.
"This matter is quite a matter. Although I am the Speaker now, I personally cannot be sure that I have a wise judgment, so let's ask the Council of Underworld."
This is the best excuse Xing Tianyu could think of. I think the Underworld Council should not force others, right? It should respect the choices of the elders.
The gray-robed summoners looked at each other, "Then that's it, let's summon the Council of the Underworld."
Summoner Island is not allowed to use summoning techniques, but communication with the Underworld Council does not require summoning techniques. The group came to a hall underground at the Parliament Building. This hall was located dozens of meters deep underground. It was very cold and made of obsidian. There were many huge braziers around the hall.
"This is the Hall of the Dead, a place to communicate with those who died." The sage lit the braziers of the underworld in the hall. As the green flames ignited in the basin, faces with different images also emerged in the green flames in the braziers. They were the members of the Underworld Council.
Since the Summoner Presbyterian Council has lasted for thousands of years, there are more members of the Underworld Council than the living elders. There are faces in more than twenty braziers around, and some have two or three faces floating in one brazier, which has a bit of a holographic projection.
"Dear elders, deceased dead, it is an important thing to call you today, and you need your wisdom to help us make decisions." The sage said first.
"Tell me, what happened again?" asked an elder of the underworld.
Xing Tianyu said, "Our Presbyterian Church is all missing. Before they disappear, they left a message, asking us not to look for them. However, it is not great to lose the entire Presbyterian Church, so we want to go and find them again. I would like to ask all elders, should we find the missing elders?"
The elders of the Underworld Council immediately started to talk silently after hearing this.
After a moment
"Of course I have to find it back. There is one thing I can be sure of. A few of them are not dead yet. I don't know about others, but that guy Anubis will definitely come to the spiritual world as long as he dies. Since he has not come now, it means that they are still alive, at least there are still people alive.
Their lives are naturally not very important. You must know that the elders have many secrets about the summoner council in their minds. It would be fine if they died. If they were not dead, the secrets in their minds would be very likely to threaten the safety of our entire collective. Therefore, they must be retrieved and the most powerful summoners among you must be sent back to retrieve the missing elders at any cost. They must meet people alive and see corpses when they die!"
Several braziers were extinguished one after another, and several gray-robed summoners looked at Xing Tianyu. "Speaker, what are your instructions?" Xing Tianyu sighed helplessly, "Issuing a convening order to summon all summoners willing to participate in the war."
Several gray-robed summoners nodded and went down to take action.
The summoning order was sent out quickly, and it was not easy to summon all the summoners. After all, the summoners themselves are a very loose organization, and the summoners have their own ideas in all walks of life and have their own ideas. Some are very dependent on the Summoner Island, but some do not have much sense of belonging to the Summoner organization. When summoners gather, they are just a scene. In addition, time is in a hurry, some summoners have to carry out the tasks and actions they have arranged before, and in the end, less than half of the summoners responded to the summoning and returned to the Summoner Island.
Although the number of people was a little smaller, Xing Tianyu could not wait any longer. The elders had been missing for so many days and could be in danger of their lives at any time, so they had to hurry up every minute and every second.
Standing in the seat of the Speaker in the parliament hall and looking at the dozens of summoners, Xing Tianyu first asked the wise to tell the whole story and the consequences, and the summoners were immediately in an uproar.
Xing Tianyu ignored the noise of the crowd and went straight to the point.
"Okay, everyone. You already know what's going on. Although the Presbyterian Council told us not to look for them, it is still necessary for us to figure out their life and death at the suggestion of the Council of Underworld. As the current Speaker of the Presbyterian Council, I decided to gradually find out their whereabouts of a team of powerful summoners. Considering the difficulty and danger of this mission, all those involved in this operation can receive a large amount of rewards and can be cashed in advance."
"The rewards include the download authority of the library's 5,000 ancient coins, the council treasure house will select a treasure at will, and the summoner level will be increased by one level. If you are already a gray-robed elder, you can obtain the qualification of an alternate elder. In other words, if the elders are indeed dead, then other members of the Presbyterian Church will be selected from the personnel of this operation. This operation is voluntary registration. I hope that if you are confident in your strength, please bravely join this operation."
Xing Tianyu also invested a lot of money. Anyway, it was because the little sold his father and the heart was not painful. This time the temptation was great, and the reward was generous. Whether it was the downloading authority of the library materials or the opportunity to become an elder, it was an unprecedented reward. But there was no way, in order to convene a suicide squad, such a price had to be paid.
Even so, there was no situation where everyone responded for a while. After all, no matter how great the benefits were, it was not as important as their own life. Even the Presbyterian Church was destroyed, and the degree of danger was self-evident.
However, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and someone soon raised his hand to sign up.
"Perfect me." Lucifer suddenly said, and he glanced at everyone, "I am quite interested in becoming an elder or something." At the beginning of him, several more people soon signed up, but there were only four or five people.
Xing Tianyu frowned, thinking that there were a few people like this.
At this time, the narrator suddenly spoke again.
[Looking at the summoners who registered in front of him, Shadow secretly made a judgment that he would die in his heart. He knew very well that this action was very dangerous. Even the seven elders were lost, how could these people succeed?
If you want to say the only candidate who is likely to successfully complete the task, he will undoubtedly have to take action himself. After all, as a Psychic Venerable, he is likely to be the strongest of all summoners, but he has made up his mind to stay out of it. Anyway, as long as he sends a rescue team, others cannot say that he has not done his best. And sending these people who are ambitious to seize the position of elders to die will also be of great benefit to his future rule.]
