The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 3174

Chapter 3174 Treating Us Like Children “Oh, I see. Great. Then, do you know where they are now?” Another question was posted from the manor. Stunned, Floyd stammered, “Err... I've left the Heavenly League for some time. Hence, I'm not sure where are they right now.” He added quickly, “Nonetheless, I can perform a search. It won't take me long before I can locate them.” “Good. If you can tell me their exact location, I'll meet you face to face.” The reply came like a bolt from the blue and made Floyd jump for joy. It was what he had been waiting for! She was considered the most sought-after goddess in the Ecclesiastic Order; the one who had it all. Though the difference between Floyd and her was vast in all aspects, he refused to give up pursuing her despite being ignored all the time. He did not even have a chance to see her. Now that an opportunity presented itself, how could Floyd contain his emotions? He was ready to go looking for Azure Dragon and the others without further ado. The woman's desire was all that he cared about. So, it did not even cross his mind to check the reason behind her request. In order not to raise unnecessary suspicion, the woman said, “Don't worry. The purpose of locating them is actually to protect them. It's worrisome to see them missing in action.” “I got it. Thanks!” Then, Floyd left to search for Azure Dragon and his comrades. After searching one round, he found nothing. The Heavenly League was in a chaos due to that burning issue. Everyone was fretting that they would meet with mishap. Floyd tried using a special telecommunication device which was only made known to insiders working closely with Levi. No one else knew about the tool. Within seconds, he was able to reach Azure Dragon, who then told him that they had hid. Floyd, on the other hand, updated them about the situation outside. He described how the Heavenly League was in a mess, constantly filled with people looking for the famous five. Upon hearing this, Azure Dragon became wary. Could Levi be right? So, we've been targeted? “Don't worry, everyone's priority is to protect all of you. Many from the Ecclesiastic Order were wondering what happened when you disappeared without any warning,” explained Floyd. His words dispelled their suspicions. The five were well aware of their esteemed positions better than anyone else. Being in the limelight within the Heavenly League would make them hot cakes in the eyes of the Ecclesiastic Order. Aren't we like VIPs to them, for they had even passed us the Art of Consumption? Why would they scheme to transplant our spiritual bones? “The entire Heavenly League has gone topsy-turvy. We need you to be back and take charge of it,” urged Floyd. The five burst out laughing. Had anyone really wanted our spiritual bones, would they have waited so long to take any action? It's been a while now. If they're up to something, we should be able to sniff it out by now. Why the long wait and silence? Unbeknownst to the five, that was far from the case. Transplanting spiritual bones was not an easy process that anyone could manage. It required professional methods and tremendous effort. In fact, the price to pay was severe. The slightest mistake conducted during the process would result in death or other adverse side effects. Given how tedious the whole process was, it had to be done flawlessly in order for the spiritual bones to work perfectly on the bodies of others too. No one made a move during this time as they were all making preparations accordingly. Some factions within the Ecclesiastic order recognized the exceptional elemental spiritual bones possessed by Azure Dragon and his peers. With that new discovery, they knew it would be quite a challenge to combine the spiritual bones of the five individuals. Hence, they needed more time to devise the best action plan, but Azure Dragon and all were unaware of these things. “Boss worries too much about us. In his eyes, we are no different from little children.”
