Ascension To Divine Throne - Chapter 154

Chapter 154: Plan in Place

Bivis glanced at William, a divine incarnation, or rather, a descent of an evil god!

The ritual location was in the heart of Canlight City. What more was there to think about regarding the intentions of this evil god?

“I don’t know how you found out, but this news is too shocking!”

Bivis’s face was serious now, devoid of the smile from before. He tapped the wooden armrest of the sofa with his right hand, making a dull sound.

The goals of these cults of evil gods were always so straightforward and sinister, spreading [Fear] and proclaiming the terror and greatness of their deity.

As for how many people would lose their lives, that wasn’t their concern.

In fact, for these fanatics, slaughter was a pleasurable activity.

“Can you take me there to have a look?”

Bivis looked at William, his gaze devoid of the gentleness he had shown earlier, replaced by endless killing intent.

As the commander of the Golden Lion Knights, entrusted with the heavy responsibility of defending the royal capital by His Majesty, Bivis couldn’t possibly tolerate the conspiracy of these cultists aiming to disrupt Canlight City.

William shook his head, saying firmly: “It’s difficult, Commander Milaner.”

“The underground chamber likely harbors a golden-tier powerhouse, and I feigned ignorance to avoid alerting him.”

“If you were to go, you’d surely alarm him.”

“I believe these cultists must have more than just this one plan in Canlight City. They likely have similar hidden chambers in other parts of the lower district.”

“Once we alarm them and the news spreads, it’ll be troublesome.”

“What are your thoughts then?”

Bivis thought for a moment, feeling that William’s considerations were valid, so he decided to hear what this Viscount Cain had in mind.

“We must take action, but there’s no way to guarantee that the golden-tier powerhouse will spread the news.”

“And I believe he should pass the information to others from the Beast God Cult!”

William said seriously, looking closely at Bivis.

“Hmm, how do you mean?”

Bivis’s expression softened slightly; he didn’t think William was joking with his words.

“These cultists must have several other setups in Canlight City, but we don’t know where the others are located.”

William paused before continuing:

“So, instead of searching extensively, why don’t we rattle the cage? If we make preparations in advance, I believe we can minimize the kingdom’s losses.”

This was also what William had deduced when contemplating the Beast God Cult’s plan.

William did know the locations of the other two setups of the Beast God Cult, in the Pearl Street and Fesser Street of the lower district, but he wasn’t clear on the positions of those two hidden chambers.

If they were to conduct an extensive search, it would undoubtedly alert those from the Beast God Cult that the kingdom had sensed something was amiss.

In that case, it would be better to make preparations and forcefully suppress the blood sacrifice ritual of the Beast God Cult.

As the capital of the Fis Kingdom, Canlight City was undoubtedly much stronger than the Beast God Cult. Otherwise, why would the cultists be so cautious?

If that was the case, they might as well crush them directly.

“You’re right.”

Bivis fell silent for a moment, realizing that William’s proposal was indeed the best course of action.

“Moreover, the Beast God Cult might be planning to strike during the Annual Holy Festival.”

William was clearly speaking nonsense; in his previous life, the Beast God Cult had prepared for a long time after the festival before making a move.

However, William had his reasons. After all, the Beast God Cult’s plan had already changed due to Marion’s interference. Who knew what those people would do next? It’s better to resolve it early!

However, Bivis found William’s statement very likely.

The cultists dared to do anything. For them, the greater the impact, the better.

There’s no time to hesitate!

Bivis stood up abruptly from the sofa, his voice full of malice:

“Kid, I’ll trust you this time.”

“I’ll go report to His Majesty at the palace and mobilize the elite forces of Canlight City to enter the lower district. Let’s see what kind of waves the Beast God Cult can stir up.”

William nodded, adding, “And there’s the matter of the Dawn Church.”

Among the various religious organizations in Canlight City, only the Dawn Church held dominion, with a legendary priest and the Dawn Knights stationed in the Grand Dawn Cathedral.

Bivis nodded in agreement; that was certain.

When it came to striking the cult of evil gods, he didn’t need to persuade anyone; those white-robed folks would surely charge at the forefront.

“I’ll inform the Dawn Church, and lord Flame of Judgment.”

“I’ll pay a visit to my teacher later, but I don’t think he’ll act until the manifestation of the beast god.”

William understood Bivis’s implication and nodded in agreement.

“Good!”

With this confirmation, Bivis didn’t detain William any longer. Time was running short, and there were only three days left until the Annual Holy Festival.

If they didn’t handle things properly, and an evil god manifested during the festival, it would be a real disaster.

Bivis and Herbert left the Knights’ headquarters together, exchanging greetings before hurriedly riding their horses towards the palace.

William didn’t waste any time either. With Claw and Rachel, he headed towards the Fis Royal Magic Academy.

He instructed them to wait outside the First Magic Workshop while he entered.

Claw and Rachel looked on with amazement as the stone door of the workshop closed behind William.

“Automatic door?”

“Seems like it. I didn’t expect this kind of thing in a medieval-style game.”

“Well, it’s magic after all.”

The two discussed, not finding it boring at all.

Though they didn’t gain anything practical, it was like exploring a new map, as many places were only accessible to players of a certain level and status. They were broadening their horizons.

After informing Apollo about the Beast God Cult’s activities, the legendary mage seemed quite relaxed.

“So, those gods can’t sit still anymore? What’s going to happen?”

Apollo sat smilingly on the side, seemingly not taking the potential appearance of the Beast God too seriously.

Seeing William’s confusion, Apollo explained: “You haven’t reached that level yet, so naturally, you wouldn’t know.”

“Bound by the rules of the Gaia World, the true forms of those deities cannot descend into the main world.”

“Likewise, even if they expend great effort to manifest incarnations, the strength of those manifestations will be severely limited, at most reaching the peak of demigods.”

“As for the manifestation of the Beast God, it barely reaches demigod status.”

“But being a demigod doesn’t necessarily mean being stronger than a legend.”

“Take me, for example, haha.”

Apollo waved his hand, laughing: “I’ve got it. I’ll keep an eye on things.”

“You can also participate; after all, the methods of those cultists are quite special. It’ll be beneficial for you to broaden your horizons.”
