Eli rushed as fast as she could because she knew that it would be dangerous if the two captains noticed her disappearance.
And so she no longer wasted a second of pleasantries and explained the situation straight away.
"Thank you for coming. Unfortunately, I do not have much time…
The thing is exactly two days from now, we will be forced to move because of a dire situation. Our identities were not compromised as of the moment.
However, in some unfortunate manner, our assumed identities were set to be killed at that time.
As such we have no choice but to finally confront them even if we have not yet figured out what the specter has been doing."
"This…" Prince Nalu and Frizyl immediately panicked hearing that Eli and Kayden would have to make a move soon.
They were about to open their mouths but then Eli quickly reached out to her morphed space ring and handed out a stack of thick paper.
"As for what we have found out inside, Brother and I have recorded it here. Please do me a favor and send it to the leaders.
Feel free to also use that information as you wish, I will not force you to join us if you think that the preparation on your side is not enough.
One thing I just would like for you to do was to rescue the people who were captured at the second level.
If I remember correctly, many of them were also belonging to your races' kins." Eli explained.
Prince Nalu and Fryzil's eyes darkened upon knowing that there were non-human races that were also detained in the temple. In their eyes, they were ready to make a move at any moment.
Eli naturally could feel the angst of the two, but as she remembered Abaddon and Gabriel, and the remaining seven captains which she was not able to meet.

Besides, they have hundreds of beast puppets who are able to easily defeat several men at once. Not only that, but these puppets can also cast spells according to their controller's will." She warned.
Prince Nalu and Fryzil closed their eyes and took a deep breath. They could only force their anger back and chose to acknowledge Eli's warning about the troops.
"Alright… I can't stay any longer. Please… do let this information be known by our elders…"
"Thank you so much, My Lady… rest assured, we won't let you go alone when the set date comes. We will surely come and think of a way to help you… and rescue the captives."
Eli nodded and gave a grateful smile.
She said no more for she knew that there would also not be enough time for Nalu's side to prepare for an army large enough to deal with the main temple at the moment.
Casting another bidding glance, she quickly reverted back to her disguise and disappeared into the forest.
As for Prince Nalu and Fryzil, they also immediately moved and went back to the shore. There he summoned a representative of each of the races who were with them and shared the information.
He also had someone quickly copy the information and send it to the headquarters, to whom headquarters quickly signified their receipt.
"Now while we are waiting for the leaders to understand the information, we must talk about the information as well and see if we can do something much more than what our troops could originally do." Prince Nalu navigated the team.
The representatives of each race read the information and were astonished and surprised at the same time.
They did not expect such secrets to exist in the supposedly most righteous and closest places to the heavens.
How come they have been subjected to such evil ways?
Consequently, they were astonished to also realize how detailed the evidence was as well as the accounts of what was inside the palace.
If they assume correctly, Eli and Kayden would have been under strict surveillance at all times. How did they even manage to create such an organized and detailed report?
They even had a drawing of the layout of the entire temple including the explored regions of the underground temple!
However, unbeknownst to them, Eli and Kayden did not actually personally write this report.
Eli simply took Kayden's information and allowed all the discoveries to be recorded in the book of knowledge. Consequently, since Wisey became stronger upon waking up, Eli also found that the book has been upgraded.
It automatically records the information she wanted to record and even draws the layout to such a good standard!
"Nine more captains… several high priests, a cardinal, and four administrators… not to mention the clerics, the temple knights, and the hundreds of cursed beasts that were housed in the laboratory…
All of this… can we really handle these things?" The representatives shuddered to realize the gravity of planning to even attack the base of the corrupted temple.
"What is more worrying was that Lady Eli and the Great Doctor would have no choice but to retaliate! If they would not receive any help from the outside, then they…"
The men's faces immediately darkened when they realized this.
Fryzil and Nalu also clenched their first. Eli and Kayden's situation is 90% close to a suicide mission!
Even if they helped, their mediocre number would not be enough to face off an army several times larger than their puny standby troops. Nalu also regretted not persuading his father to send more troops.
"Nevertheless... Even if it is a suicide mission, do not forget that the slightest chance of success would also save our kin who were locked inside. Even the lady did not plead for us to directly help them, she only begged for us to save the captives."
"I can only pray that the elders right now would think of a way to resolve the situation… However, given that we only have two days remaining to prepare, receiving help would be wishful thinking."
"It doesn't matter. Aren't we near our homeland? Why not contact our respective villages and ask if they could send us more reinforcements?"
"Yes, that would do too!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe men already agreed and so they immediately sent for their representatives to attempt to ask for more troops from their villages.
In the headquarters, the leaders became immediately alarmed about the matter on Eli and Kayden's side.
"How do we go about this? Clearly, two days is not enough for us to gather troops and send them on their side. But are we going to let the lady and the doctor die?"
The Leaders panicked, while they knew that Eli and Kayden's mission was close to committing suicide, they still could not just close their eyes and allow such a thing to transpire.
"This is such bad timing when we have already announced our major troops will be rerouted." They all sighed.
Emperor Valentin and High Priest Enoch appeared to have many words to say, but they still looked to the leaders from the Green Wave continent for the troops nearest to the Holy Island.
"Spare every effort to contact their side, ask them to quickly prepare for a teleportation array on the nearest harbor point in the ocean…
Old Havelok, would you allow such a teleportation array to be established on one of your islands?" Chief Dragon Fafnir asked Merking Havelok.
"I have no objections, as long as we can help our forces on the holy island. Besides, we are not only saving only two lives but countless captives of our race inside!" Merking agreed.
"Alright… it's decided then… Now let's select which troops to send." Such a simple solution might be quite easy to sell, but the most crucial part of this matter was having troops to send.
On the other hand, Eli went back as fast as she could after revealing the information to Prince Nalu and Fryzil. The time window she needed was less than fifteen minutes or else, her disappearance might be too obvious.
From the moment she sneaked out in the harbor until now it already took about ten minutes. To be honest, running to the other side of the harbor would not be impossible for her to do in less than five minutes.
Unfortunately for her, she could not also use her devourer powers for fear that one would notice her presence, especially those two captains.
But Eli persevered and ran without even pausing to take a breath. Shortly after, she was already able to see the light at the end of the forest and her heart came to relief.
However, ten meters before the forest existed, a cold blade appeared in front of her, immediately halting her movements.
Due to the momentum, however, the sword was still able to graze a wound on her neck.
The pain from the wound did not faze Eli at all… that is because there was even bigger trouble at the moment.
The holder of the sword is none other than Abaddon, who was looking at her with cold ruthless eyes!
