Chapter 3510 Count Me In
Despite their conviction that hiding in the Holy Guild would offer them enough protection,
Solocus and his group were terrified to consider that their unseen enemy had already
known everything.
It’s a disaster!
Solocus felt as if a venomous snake was watching him at that moment. The feeling of
having every move of his observed by evil eyes he could not see unnerved him.
The elders of the West Pavilion are only moderately powerful. Who else could it be?
Suddenly, Solocus realized something amiss. “It’s time to leave,” he shouted, leaping into
action as he turned ghastly pale. “We’re in danger!”
We should have acted before being exposed if we were to pull off by picking a fight with
the Ecclesiastic Order. If the unseen force controlling everything knew about our intention
ahead of time, then our presence would have exposed us instead.
“Charge!” A series of battle cries sounded from outside the Medical Guild at that moment,
announcing the arrival of the Ecclesiastic Order’s army.
The elite fighters of the Holy Guild and the detention center heavily surrounded them, with
the same happening at the Cetus’ headquarters.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSolocus and his group were stunned at how the tables had turned on them.
Initially, their surprise assault would have been enough to take down the Ecclesiastic
Order with the current strength of the Cetus forces.
However, the table had been turned…
We’re in trouble! This was not part of the plan. We’ll be lucky even to leave this place
alive.
“Solocus is the spy planted by the Orthus in the Ecclesiastic Order!”
“Magdalena and Xylas are the survivors of the Orthus!”
“The Cetus and the other deviant clans are hidden within the Holy Guild!”
Some within the crowd announced the incriminating evidence, which greatly angered the
other Ecclesiastic Order members who were unaware of the news.
We have been taken for a ride for too long. This is a slight that cannot be tolerated.
Bristling with indignant rage, they were determined to tear Solocus and his group apart.
“How dare you kill members of the Medical Guild, Solocus? Even Master Eusof died by your
hand, didn’t he?”
“What’s more, the magical medicine within the Medical Guild and the treasures of the Holy
Guild are gone! You have raided them, haven’t you?”
Gloria had arranged for all the blame to be placed upon Solocus and his men.
It’s over. I won’t ever be able to defend myself and clear my name with everything
exposed in such a manner.
With Eusof’s disappearance, two of his disciples lying dead on the floor, and the missing
magical medicine of the Medical Guild; Solocus and his party’s appearance at the crime
scene practically sealed their fate.
The group plunged into despair as they were without even being given a chance to prove
their innocence.
“It wasn’t us! We have been framed!” Xylas protested earnestly. “Though we admit we are
members of the deviant clans, we will not admit to having done all these!”
However, his pleas fell on deaf ears of the mutinous army who were adamant that Xylas
was lying.
“That’s not all,” continued the voices of accusation. “The disappearance of the Top Ten,
the death of the Three Sages of the North Pavilion, and the four cornerstone divine tools
were all their doing!”
“They have even framed the Esoteric Guild and instigated the Ecclesiastic Order to start a
war with the Esoteric Guild!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“This has been their plan all along. To have the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild
fight each other while the Cetus swoops in and defeats the weakened combatants. We
have Master Levi to thank for putting us on our guard against you.”
Even crimes committed by others are piled on to us. It looks like a battle is imminent.
“It doesn’t matter what we have to say at this point,” Solocus declared in stoic
resignation. “Let’s go to war, then. Do you think you can stop us?”
As the Ecclesiastic Order lacked capable fighters, the Cetus force was clearly more
dominant.
In addition to Eusof’s absence, Solocus was confident with his chances to fight his way
out.
However, forces of the Ecclesiastic Order fell silent.
We can’t take this fight!
“What if I joined them?” said a voice suddenly like a crash of thunder.
Levi arrived, flanked by Azure Dragon and his group.
“Oh no, we are done for…”
The sight of Levi caused Solocus to see no hope but despair.
