The talk went more smoothly than Hemlin thought it would. He expected Forlan to oppose the Adventurer Guild joining the Tang Empire, or the best scenario was Forlan giving up on the Adventurer Guild. It seemed he underestimated Forlan's desire to kill the seven Gods.
After the talk was over, they immediately went to the Temple of Light. The Temple of Light was located inside the Elf's territory. It was still unknown what the reason The Temple of Light moved to the elf's territory.
The rumor was that Lunea had a disagreement with the other seven Gods and split up. But no one could confirm the theory because only Lunea knew why she moved her temple into the elf's territory.
The Osligia Kingdom, that was where the Temple of Light was. The center population of the elves in Aqura.
"It should take us a few minutes to reach Osligia Kingdom from here."
The Adventurer Guild failed to build their branch in non-human territory. The beastmen and the elves refused to let humans stay in their territories.
"Are you sure we don't need adventurers, Your Majesty? We can deploy them to distract The Clown Troupe," Another issue aside from the elf's hostility to the human was The Clown Troupe.
The main force of the Clown Troupe was stationed closer to the border of The Osligia Kingdom. The Clown Troupe tried to get to the Temple of Light, but they received fierce resistance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYears of attempts to breach the Osligia Kingdom's defense brought no result to this day. Even though there was no God Rank from the Osligia Kingdom. However, there was an extremely strong yet weird barrier.
The Clown God along with the other Gods tried to destroy the barrier, yet they failed. The weird part about the barrier was preventing the God Rank from entering the elf territory. That was the reason why The Osligia Kingdom was safe from The Temple.
Only Demi-God Rank and below could enter the barrier. The Osligia Kingdom had expelled The Temple's forces countless times to this day until the elf was called The Temple's hunter.
Tang Shaoyang waved his hand, "We don't need them. They are just a burden."
He then turned toward Avyn, "That clown is mine. I have unfinished business with him." He reminded Avyn not to interfere with his fight against the Clown God.
The fact that he would meet the Clown God here was unexpected and a surprise. He just knew most of these Gods were in The Aidan Continent.
Hemlin nodded without questioning the decision, "Please follow me, Your Majesty."
From that small city, the group of four traveled to the west. The city was built quite far from the border of the Osligia Kingdom. It was supposed to be closer but under a constant war between The Osligia Kingdom and The Clown Troupe. The whole city was moved.
Despite their speed, it took them half an hour to reach the Clown Troupe encampment.
Hemlin said it was an encampment but it looked like a small fortress to Tang Shaoyang. The black steel wall was erected, protecting the people inside from the wild monster. He saw a lot of wild monsters around this area.
"Is this the only Clown Troupe's encampment?" Tang Shaoyang stopped Hemlin and Forlan to charge into the encampment. He wanted to make sure Clown God was in this encampment.
Spirit Eyes was activated, investigating the camp.
"No. They have several encampments, but this one is the biggest one. The Clown must be in this encampment," Hemlin checked the encampment. It was tightly guarded as hundreds of black knights lined up above the steel wall.
"He is not here," Tang Shaoyang could not find The Clown God.
Forlan and Hemlin exchanged glances. They wondered how Tang Shaoyang discovered that, but they chose to trust Tang Shaoyang instead of asking. Hemlin led Tang Shaoyang to the other encampment. The Clown God might be there.
There were in total twenty-one encampments, and four of them checked all of them. Tang Shaoyang confirmed that the Clown God was not there.
"He is not here," Tang Shaoyang sounded disappointed.
"Should we wait for him to return?" Forlan suggested.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Nope. We will destroy their main base. I will enter the Osligia Kingdom, and you wait for me outside. Or you can destroy all the bases if you are bored of waiting for me."
The four returned to the main encampment, and they walked to the main entrance.
"This is a restricted area! Return or we will kill you!"
The Black Knights noticed a group of four coming toward them. There was always a group like this, trying to enter the elf's territory. It was a common occurrence for those who stayed in this place for years. A little bit of a threat, then was enough to scare these people.
However, the response was a fierce tornado from Hemlin. The tornado not just swept the knights, but flung the gate. The knights were not expecting them to be a crazy group that dared to attack the main base.
The bell rang from inside the encampment, indicating they were under attack. However, it was not really necessary because the knights stationed on the other side felt the impact from the wind as well. It was a big attack that was useless against The God Rank, but it did the job of fighting the low-ranks.
The four entered the camp through the main entrance.
"Which fool dared to attack The Clown Troupe's base?" A deafening voice transmitted through the air as a figure flew to the sky. The figure looked down on the four, but he did not recognize the attacker.
No one knew the faces of Hemlin and Forlan. And of course, Tang Shaoyang and Avyn were just nobody in Aqura.
"You foo—" The words stopped midway as an ice spike impaled the figure's chest from behind. Right after making a hole in the chest, the ice spread out, freezing the knight. The figure was falling from the air.
Right before the figure crashed to the ground, Tang Shaoyang touched the freezing knight and put the body into his inventory. It was Demi-God Rank's body, a precious material for him.
