The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 2751

Chapter 2751 Guild And Order Even Daxon observed with keen interest when Levi asked, for he had heard of the Xenhall clerics in passing but knew not of the specifics. “We've actually looked into both variations of the legend. One pertained to the Esoteric Guild. Word has it that they were a group of theurgists who wielded powerful magical techniques! The other concerned the Xenhall clerics of the Ecclesiastic Order, who were themselves also extraordinary folks in their own rights! Levi and Daxon both reacted with astonishment. “Might you have any more detailed information or the likes?” Levi continued to press. An ancient manual came shooting out of The Manifest Court, which, upon Levi's examination, opened to reveal content exclusively comprised of mythological stories that the Manifest Court made scant effort to expound upon. It was obvious that these were mere legends ⁠and, for the most part, unverified tall tales and hearsay. Levi made a mental note of them and then left. Actually, he was not sold on them either, since they were, as various sources would attest, nothing more than stories. The only avenue of doubt he had revolved around his own mentor. From where did the seemingly omnipotent mentor hail? “What will you do next?” Daxon asked. Levi's expression was severe. “All this time, Sacroria has been exceedingly concerned about the Esoteric Guild and the Ecclesiastic Order, and the truth of their existence! For this reason, they've remained restrained and had been conserving their strength. I've even heard that the Lab of Gods is actually waiting on the appearance of the Esoteric Guild and the Ecclesiastic Order, and is looking only to attack Erudia with the Leviathan!” Daxon had a gist of what Levi's intentions were. “So your upcoming plan would be to use the Esoteric Guild and the Ecclesiastic Order to bait Sacroria out into the open?” Daxon asked. “Yeah, that's right. That's why I have to first find out what these two mysterious entities of lore are about, so that I may adapt accordingly! Even if it is just a myth, we should masquerade as closely as we can to what the stories depict. Only by doing this would we be able to capture the attention of Sacroria,” Levi explained. “I see. So, that's why you needed something more concrete from The Manifest Court! However...” Daxon appeared apprehensive. “In order to be convincing as the legendary Esoteric Guild and Ecclesiastic Order, surely one has to not only look the part but also have the prowess to match? In spite of our collective growth in strength, I'm afraid that we might still be quite far off from being able to meet this very criterion!” Daxon's assessment was pointedly simple. Levi's subordinates simply did not have the capability to pass themselves off as members of either the Esoteric Guild or the Ecclesiastic Order, thus making it easy for that ruse to fall through. “Relax! None of you would need to get involved in this, for I have got some tricks up my sleeve!” This was where Mutant Number Thirteen and the Fearsome Four, as well as Cyrus, will come in handy. It shouldn't be difficult for them to pass themselves off as the Esoteric Guild and the Ecclesiastic Order, at least for a while. Levi had also conceived a good draw with which to reel them in, and that was the Project Atlantis' undersea training base. To the Lab of Gods, it was a site of unbridled intrigue. Perhaps they would even fathom that place to possess some sort of connection to the Esoteric Guild and the Ecclesiastic Order. Levi was going to tap on that particular inclination of theirs to lure out Sacroria, but the foremost task for him was to assemble his Super Fighters. “You guys shouldn't idle around either. Get out there and lend a hand! One more thing, though. Pay attention to Zarain. I'm wary that they might seize the opportunity to move against us!” Levi wanted Daxon to keep a close eye on Zarain, for a dormant Zarain at that time was a terrifying proposition. By staying put and without joining the alliance, she and her ilk might be awaiting an opportunity to capitalize once the allied forces and Diviniteria wore each other down. Their strength remained an unknown commodity, and that was Levi's greatest cause for concern. Hence, he had to be on his guard. By now, the erection of the eleventh defense barrier by the allied forces had been completed. The Titan Lord was in the lead of a group of lieutenants surveying from an elevated vantage point while they waited for the battle to commence. “How I wish I could lead our vast army forth!”
