1627 Splitting Up
Edited by Aelryinth
“If she’s right, the Parthenon Temple should be on alert,” Leng Qing frowned.
If the city was in danger, they could not afford to take it lightly. If the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan suddenly attacked the city while the Mages were not ready, the casualties would be horrendous in mere seconds. It would turn into a disaster!
“It’s very smart. It has been wandering around looking for the city’s weak spot,” Apas pointed out.
“Oh, oh, I have to call someone!” Mo Fan realized that the situation was a lot more serious than he had imagined.
The Parthenon Temple was responsible for Athens’ safety, especially when a Tyrant Titan was involved. If the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan was really planning its attack, things would go south real fast if the people naively thought the creature was not aggressive.
Mo Fan went to a corner and dialed Xinxia’s number.
As he thought, the person that picked up his call was the old woman, Tata. Tata told Mo Fan that Xinxia had gone to bed. She would not allow them to have a long phone call late at night.
“I have something important to tell her, I promise,” Mo Fan said.
“You can tell me, then,” Tata grunted back.
Mo Fan always called Xinxia late at night; his calls usually lasted for at least an hour or two. Xinxia was already worn out from her duties that morning as a Candidate for the role of the Goddess. It would be terrible if she did not get enough rest at night. She was no longer a university student!
“Ask the Hall of Knights to keep a close eye on the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan that has been showing up close to Athens lately. It’s on the verge of losing its mind. It’s a ticking time bomb that might endanger the city!” Mo Fan said.
“We have experts observing the Tyrant Titan. Don’t you worry about it. If there’s nothing else, I will be hanging up…” Tata said.
“Why do you always have to be so stubborn, you old hag!?” Mo Fan snarled.
This old woman kept on intervening whenever he gave Xinxia a call. He would have to prepare a private phone for Xinxia that could only call him or accept his call. Did he really have to book a time in advance just to call his wife!?
“Kid, when are you going to learn to be respectful toward your elders?” Tata grunted back.
Mo Fan was enraged when the other end hung up. He had an urge to go to England right away and teach that old woman a lesson!
“How was it?” Leng Qing asked.
“Tata didn’t take my warning seriously. She believes in the Hall of Knights’ decision,” Mo Fan said helplessly.
“Can we trust the little girl’s words?” Leng Qing said.
“Yes, she can understand demon creatures, and she’s very talented with the Psychic Element, too…” Mo Fan said.
Was this a joke question? Apas was the successor of the Medusa Queen, a creature that had been around for as long as the Tyrant Titans. They most likely shared the same language! Besides, Apas’ ability to see through someone’s thoughts was insane. She could easily read the Tyrant Titan’s mind from experience and instinct alone. The Tyrant Titan was clearly not as gentle and peaceful as the Hall of Knights claimed. It was only the calm before the storm!
“What should we do now?” Mu Bai believed Apas, and began to worry.
“Aren’t you a Super Mage? We’ll leave it in the hands of the Super Mages, then. Us Advanced Mages will just sit here and eat our food while enjoying the show you’re going to put up,” Zhao Manyan said. He sounded envious.
Mu Bai was speechless. Was it my fault for advancing first? Why is this idiot acting like he is going to break all ties?
“The people of the Parthenon Temple are so unreliable. Why do they even have so many believers!?” Heidi harrumphed coldly, showing her bias against the Parthenon Temple again.
“We should follow it, I have a bad feeling about it,” Brianca said.
“Miss Brianca, we should let the Parthenon Temple handle it instead. They would be held responsible if anything happens,” Heidi countered.
“But so many innocent lives are in danger. We shouldn’t be gloating in a situation like this. Let’s hope we were wrong about it. It’s better than witnessing a tragedy,” Brianca said.
“…” Zhao Manyan was utterly speechless. He had a sudden feeling that he would be involved in all kinds of messes whenever he was with these living Buddhas.
They had just escaped from the Cruel Ocean Serpent not long ago, but they were now going after a Silver Moon Tyrant Titan! The Silver Moon Tyrant Titan was obviously stronger than the Cruel Ocean Serpent. Why couldn’t they just enjoy their dinner in peace and pretend they did not see it? Why couldn’t they just enjoy their vacation!?
It really complied with the saying, ‘The world really isn’t that eventful, but a person that loves meddling in other people’s business will find themselves in all kinds of trouble!’
“The Silver Moon Tyrant Titan won’t necessarily attack now, right? We aren’t sure when it’s going to make its move. We can’t just keep following it,” Zhao Manyan interrupted hastily.
“How about this? We’ll split into two groups. Some of us will keep an eye on the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan, and hold it back until the people of the Parthenon Temple arrive if it happens to go berserk. The other group will look into the heart of the young Tyrant Titan that the renowned clan bought during the auction. If the heart really belongs to the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan’s kin, we must tell the Hall of Knights. Without that connection, the Hall of Knights is going to lean toward their academics. Once we manage to convince the Hall of Knights, it should be able to keep the situation under control,” Leng Qing advised them.
As expected of an Elder of the Enforcement Union, Leng Qing immediately proposed the necessary arrangements. They could not afford to keep waiting and following the Tyrant Titan around. At least it was still behaving calmly for now, which was why the people did not assume it was aggressive. However, once they found out the truth about the heart of the young Tyrant Titan, the Hall of Knights would treat it more seriously!
“Alright! Heidi, Zhao Manyan, Mu Bai, and I will keep an eye on the Tyrant Titan. Mo Fan, Apas, and Leng Qing, you will investigate the two renowned clans,” Brianca agreed with the arrangements, and quickly allocated the teams.
“Why do I have to keep an eye on the Tyrant Titan? Why can’t I investigate the renowned clans? Shouldn’t Mo Fan be in the other group!?” Zhao Manyan quickly protested.
“You are a defensive Mage. If the Tyrant Titan goes berserk, you are our best bet to protect the people!” Brianca said.
Their main focus was to protect the people, not to fight the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan!
“Got it. Leng Qing, do you know anyone from the two renowned clans?” Mo Fan asked.
“Mm, I do know a few; one of them is the supplier of the high-quality Hundred Blood Leaves for the Parthenon Temple. They are related to a reputable old man in charge of the Hall of Faith.” Leng Qing was fairly familiar with the network in the Parthenon Temple. After all, she had quite a lot of free time while she was convalescing.
